Chapter 992 Then You Suck the Dick
Apparently, Harry Potter is a hit!
This work about Teacher Theking’s transformation, which was previously dismissed by most people, has achieved an unexpected success. The hundreds of thousands of positive reviews on Amazon are just the tip of the iceberg of this book’s explosion. The book has been equally discussed in major forums. It remains high, not to mention major physical bookstores.
Many booksellers have to face this embarrassment:
Because they were not optimistic about the market prospects of "Harry Potter", they did not purchase a large quantity of books. This caused many customers who wanted to buy books to go to the bookstore to get nothing, and for a while they were quite complaining.
The publishing company responsible for the "Harry Potter" business also encountered a similar embarrassment:
"Harry Potter" was snapped up by book fans as soon as it was released. The first printing number was less than half of the first printing number of "Sherlock Holmes". This is also related to the short supply in the market. Many publishing companies that cooperate with Mr. Theking are also concerned about this. The market performance of this book is seriously underestimated!
In short, this is a collective slap in the face!
Many book fans or experts who had previously declared that "Harry Potter" would fail were a little confused. As for Mr. Walter, who was previously considered to be sensational, this time he was completely proud -
Walter is so happy!
He was previously invited to participate in the "Literature Boiling Point" program as an expert, and he publicly expressed his optimism about Teacher Theking's new book. He said in the program that "Teacher Theking's so-called transformation is actually just a change of style." The implication is that this "Harry Potter" "Potter" will definitely be as successful as Mr. Theking's other works.
This passage was criticized by many people.
Even some people in the industry sneered at his remarks, thinking that he was sensationalizing and deliberately trying to attract attention for the sake of the effect of "Literature Hot Point".
Now, Harry Potter is a huge success!
Walter also proved that he was not sensationalizing!
As a result, his previous remarks suddenly changed from "grandstanding" to "far-sighted". Many Ham fans even went to Walter's Twitter and called him a "contemporary prophet"——
"I will obey you!"
"Tell me, have you watched "Harry Potter" in advance?"
"Even if a blind cat encounters a dead mouse, that is worthy of admiration. Who among us would have thought that a world-class mystery writer could write such wonderful children's literature?"
Walter, who has been called a "modern prophet", is quite useful.
He decided to continue siding with Mr. Theking, and even took advantage of the current attention to make another shocking statement via Twitter: "I think "Harry Potter" will definitely become as great a work as "Sherlock Holmes". How many years have passed since then?" , will remain in the hearts of the world forever!”
This statement is not surprising.
You know, "Sherlock Holmes" is now known as the "Mystery Bible". As long as people are interested in reasoning, almost no one has not watched "Sherlock Holmes", and now Walter actually said that "Harry Potter" can be used in the future. Become a super classic on the same level as "Sherlock Holmes"?
Isn't this too exaggerated?
Although "Harry Potter" has achieved great success and is very popular in the market, it is still far from the terrifying influence of "Sherlock Holmes"...
For a time, Walter was once again pushed to the forefront.
But this time, no one dared to laugh at Walter's whims as they did before. After all, the journey of "Harry Potter" has just begun. From the big "one" on the cover of the work, it can also be seen that this is a series of works. Any series of works that are a hit right from the start has very high potential...
“Can this work really reach the heights of Sherlock Holmes?”
"This is too exaggerated. If you straddle two genres, can you still reach the top at the same time..."
"If Walter's statement is realized, then Teacher Theking will be really awesome, and even be more popular than the teacher from Luoyang in the East. It's not impossible, right?"
…
On the other side of the ocean, Dragon Kingdom.
When Lu Yu'er was on the phone with Luoyang, she asked with a smile: "Why do you always encounter doubts?"
Luoyang thought for a while and said, "Because I always make some unexpected decisions. Think about it from my perspective. If you, a romance queen, now announce to the public that your next book will be a science fiction book, what do you think the outside world will think?"
"I write science fiction?"
Lu Yu'er chuckled. She didn't believe it herself. She couldn't even finish "The Three-Body Problem".
Luoyang said: "Teacher Theking is a complete master of reasoning in people's inherent impression. His name is closely related to reasoning, just like you, the first word that flashes in the minds of book fans when you are mentioned. It’s just romance. Under such circumstances, it’s completely understandable that transformation is not favored.”
"Is transformation necessarily not favored?" Lu Yu'er asked.
"Not necessarily. It depends on who it is. For example, I have transformed too many times and achieved good results every time. Therefore, I have turned to romance and history without encountering too many doubts." Luoyang said .
Lu Yuer laughed again: "You mean, if you spin it a few times, everyone will get used to it?"
Luoyang nodded: "It sounds like a joke, but it's true. If you do it a few more times, people will believe in your transformation skills. When I wrote "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", many people outside were not optimistic about me, but they didn't question whether I could handle the theme of suspense and adventure - they believed that I could handle this theme, but they didn't think I could reach the level of Canston."
"It seems to be true..."
Lu Yu'er nodded thoughtfully.
After hanging up the phone, Liu Qin's faint voice came from behind Luoyang: "Lu Yu'er again?"
There was no role for Liu Qin in "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" today, so Liu Qin stayed at home with Luoyang. As a result, when she was watching TV on the sofa, she heard the conversation between Luoyang and Lu Yu'er.
Luoyang nodded: "It's Lu Yuer..."
Liu Qin laughed: "Then you suck the stick, and talk on the phone every now and then."
Luoyang keenly smelled a faint sour smell in the air. He turned his head and stared at Liu Qin, smiling and saying: "Ah, classmate Liu Qin, are you jealous?"
"You think too much."
Liu Qin turned her head away and continued to watch TV.
Luoyang rolled his eyes and said: "I'm hungry, Liu Qin, why haven't you cooked yet? What about the cooking demonstration we agreed on? How about I help you today, chop vegetables and wash dishes..."
"Relatives are coming today, if you're hungry, order takeout yourself."
After Liu Qin finished speaking, she glared at Luoyang fiercely and almost couldn't help but throw the remote control in her hand over. When this guy was chatting with Lu Yuer, he really thought he didn't exist...
