Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 581 I Will Understand Soon
Zhang Zhong was not surprised that "Sophie's World" could break the record, and he felt that the number of 100 million was a bit small.

He believes that the reason there are only 100 million is entirely because the book is too long.

The thicker the book, the harder it is to sell. Although it is not a theorem, it is definitely a common situation.

Most realistically, "Sophie's World" is priced at 68 yuan in China, which is much more expensive than ordinary books. Because of this price difference, many passers-by who are not fans may hesitate.

And this book can break the record, and it is definitely not because of the quality of the book itself.

The sales volume on the first day has nothing to do with the book itself.

It mainly depends on the influence of the author and the previous publicity of the book.

Linde's previous records relied on his fame on the one hand, and the popularity accumulated in the previous books of the Necromancer series on the other.

As for "Sophie's World", it relies more on Zhang Zhong's fame, and this time it will be released in so many languages.

As for the sales brought by the word-of-mouth of the book itself, it may take a while, after all, it's only the first day, and most people haven't finished reading the book yet.

And if it is not expected, the sales volume of this book will not be too good in the next few days, because these few days will be a vacuum period. The power has gone, but the new power has not come, and it is bound to go through a period of weakness.

Just after finishing the phone call with Chen Qing, Yang Fengxia, a member of the Writers Association, called.

"Zhang Chong, congratulations for breaking another big record." Yang Fengxia got the news very quickly, and she was the first to congratulate Zhang Zhong.

"Member Lao Yang is worried, and I just got the news."

"I'm calling you this time. Apart from congratulations, I have one more thing to tell you."

"Well, you said."

"After the last National Writer's Congress, I have always had an idea to organize a Chinese-foreign literature exchange meeting."

Zhang Chong asked strangely, "Where did Member Yang come from? As far as I know, the Huaxia Writers Association has many foreign literary exchanges every year. I heard it clearly at the last representative meeting. In the past five years, we have also organized Over 130 seven visiting groups."

On average, nearly [-] visiting groups are organized every year. Now Yang Fengxia said that she will organize a literature exchange meeting, which is somewhat incomprehensible.

Yang Fengxia smiled and said, "Zhang Zhong, you have a good memory. Indeed, we organize 30 or 50 visit groups every year, but the scale has always been very small. Generally, there are less than ten people in a group. But this time I want to organize a comparison For a large visiting group, the size is probably between [-] and [-] people."

The scale of the visiting group of three to 50 people is indeed not small.Of course, the main thing is who is looking.

Since Yang Fengxia called to talk about this matter, Zhang Zhong certainly knew what she meant, and probably wanted to invite him to join the visiting group.

However, Zhang Zhong did not point it out in a hurry, but praised, "This scale is not small, so I wish this visit a complete success."

"Zhang Zhong, let me tell you the truth. I will be the head of the delegation myself, and I want you to be the deputy head," Yang Fengxia said.

Deputy head... For a visiting group of 50 people, the position of deputy head is probably equivalent to a mascot.

Zhang Zhong understood what Yang Fengxia meant, and she just took him out to support the scene.

It doesn't matter to support the scene, but Zhang Zhong doesn't want to get involved in this matter, after all, it takes too much time.

In the last representative meeting, he went to Yanjing for soy sauce and did nothing.

"Member Yang, thank you for your appreciation, but it's really inconvenient for me. There are children at home, so I can't leave..."

"Zhang Chong, don't refuse in a hurry. This trip will take some time to prepare. It will probably take place during the summer vacation. When the time comes, bring your family with you and treat it as a tour. Our group will cover all the expenses." Yang Fengxia laughed. .

Zhang Chong raised his eyebrows, thinking that this member Yang really dared to say that he took his family on a trip at public expense. If word got out, someone would probably scold the Writers Association for corruption.

Yang Fengxia dared to say that Zhang Zhong couldn't take it, of course, she said with a smile, "Let me consider this matter, and even if I want to go, I can pay the expenses myself, and I don't need to reimburse the public expenses."

"Okay, think about it carefully. Anyway, it's still a long time, so I won't bother you for now."

……

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhong thought about the feasibility. If it was really summer vacation, he could take Pengpeng and the others on a trip and visit them by the way.

Moreover, he originally planned to do a signing tour this summer, and initially decided to hold about ten signings in various countries, which can be regarded as a reward for the support of fans for so long.

When the time comes to arrange the itinerary, it may not be possible to do several things together.

"Son, it's breakfast."

Zhang Zhong was thinking about something when his mother called him outside to eat.

After going out, Peng Peng was also eating, but she had a copy of "Sophie's World" by her hand.

Zhang Zhong asked her a little strangely, "Pengpeng, why are you holding this book?"

Pengpeng took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun and said, "Grandma told me that my father wrote this book for me, so I must read it."

"Do you understand?"

Pengpeng shook his head, "I don't understand, I don't know many words, but don't worry, Dad, I will be able to understand after a while. The teacher said that we will know each other soon. There are a lot of words, and even if there are words I don’t know, I can look them up in the dictionary, I know how to look them up in the dictionary.”

"Well, since I know how to look up a dictionary, it should be very soon." Zhang Chong laughed.

"Dad, just wait."

"Well, I'm waiting."

Zhang Zhong looked at his daughter, and thought that he might have to wait a long time for this class, and that if he wanted to understand this book, he didn't just need to know the words in it.

Not to mention Peng Peng, many adult readers are a little confused after reading this book.

Although it was the next day, some people had already started discussing this book on the Internet.

[This book is good-looking, but I can't chew the philosophical content behind it. After reading it once, I remembered some small philosophical issues in the front. 】

[I didn't look at the philosophical knowledge in it at all, it mainly depends on the plot of the story. 】

【Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to read it so fast. If I look closely, I won't be able to move my liver. 】

[When Pengpeng came out again later, I was taken aback, only to realize that I had been reading books for a long time. 】

【md, I just saw the spoiler when I went online this morning, I'm dead. 】

[Hahaha, it is not recommended to visit the forum before reading the book. 】

[I just didn't expect that someone would finish reading such a thick book after only one day. I spent eight or nine hours in a row yesterday, and I only read less than half of it. 】

[Then you should look more carefully. 】

[I don't read it carefully, I feel that if I think about the philosophical issues in it, I will probably read even less. 】

[The first-year student in the Department of Philosophy said that this book is very appetizing. 】

[Electronic majors also expressed interest in watching it. 】

[Zhang Zhong's guest appearance this time is also an Easter egg. 】

【Ahhhhhh, another spoiler...】

　Thank you [saynol] for your reward, we will add more tomorrow
