The next day, the "Blair Witch Project" crew assembled, with Danny DeVito and Sofia each leading a team to begin filming.
After attending the opening ceremony of "The Blair Witch Project" in Los Angeles, Link followed the "Interstellar" promotional team to hold book signings in major American cities.
Because he was a celebrity, the quality of his new book was good, and it received recommendations from many famous science fiction writers and celebrities after its release, "Interstellar" rapidly gained popularity under the blessing of these three favorable factors.
The novel's sales also climbed, selling 50,000 copies in its first week. "Interstellar" gained a reputation in the book industry, and many people noticed the book and its author, Link.
In the second week, the book publishing company began to promote it, and Link also held book signings in various places, causing sales to rise rapidly.
In the second week, it sold 217,000 copies, soaring to fourth place on the New York Times weekly bestseller list.

According to the current sales trend, "Interstellar" is expected to sell over 800,000 copies in its first month, and is expected to sell 5 million copies within the next year.
According to the contract he signed with the publisher, he would receive 15% of the royalties after "Interstellar" was released.
A hardcover copy of "Interstellar" sells for $52, and a paperback copy for $42. Selling 50,000 copies would earn him about $360,000, selling 500,000 copies would earn him $3.6 million, and 5 million copies would earn him $36 million, which is more than many movies earn.
In addition, with "Interstellar" becoming a hit, the film and game rights will also become very valuable. If he doesn't plan to direct it himself, selling it to other film companies could also earn him a lot of money.
Therefore, when promoting the novel, he would try to attend any book company's invitation.
With his and the publisher's tireless promotion, the influence of the novel "Interstellar" in the United States became greater and greater, and even colleagues in the entertainment industry knew that Link had recently written a bestselling science fiction novel.
"Link, did you really write 'Interstellar'?"
Quentin Tarantino called anxiously when Link was attending a book signing at the Louisville Public Library.
"Yes, have you read the book?"
"Sh*t! How could you have written it? You're so busy every day, filming movies, managing the company, and chasing girls. Where did you find the time to write a book? And write hundreds of thousands of words?!"
Quentin Tarantino questioned.
"I remember someone saying that time is like water in a sponge, you can always squeeze some out. After finishing work every day, I squeeze out a few hours to write. A few thousand words a day, it took me almost half a year to finish this book, not too fast."
Link laughed.
"Damn it, after you finish working, shouldn't you rest properly? You still squeeze out time to write a book? Write a bestseller?!"
"Yeah, otherwise what else is there to do with the remaining time after work?"
"Isn't it good to drink, watch TV, and play cards with the remaining time?"
"It's boring, it feels like wasting life."
"Hmph! You bastard are too hateful. Your movies are box office hits one after another, winning the annual box office champion, and writing novels makes you a bestselling author. You bastard are only 20 years old, how can we peers compete with you?"
Quentin said through gritted teeth on the phone.
"I remember you're almost thirty this year, not a peer, right?"
"Get lost!"
Quentin angrily hung up the phone, and soon sent another message congratulating him on the bestseller of his new book, and asking him to treat everyone when he returned.
In addition to Quentin, Steven Soderbergh, Robert Rodriguez, Tim Robbins, Jim Carrey, Joan Chen, Brooke Shields, Bruce Willis, Robert Shaye, Harvey Weinstein and others also called.
Some congratulated him on the bestseller of his new book, praising the book as very good.
Some asked him when he would return to Los Angeles and asked him for an autograph.
After he became a bestselling author, everyone seemed to become more enthusiastic.
Jennifer Connelly also called him many times after "Interstellar" was released, excitedly saying that the book was very good, and she found it very interesting even after reading it five times, asking him how he could write such a wonderful science fiction novel.
Link said that he was an alien, and she was dating and making love with an alien.
Jennifer Connelly laughed non-stop after hearing this, and also felt that he was an alien, because he was very good and greedy in that area, unlike a normal person, and asked him when he would return to Los Angeles, because she really wanted to date and make love with him, this alien.
Link said that he would come back to find her for lovemaking on the weekend.
When Monica called him for the first time, she said that she had nothing to do in Los Angeles and asked if she could accompany him to book signings and see the sights with him.
Link agreed.
After Monica flew over, she stayed by his side as an assistant, sharing some of his work, taking care of his food and daily life, and being more considerate to him than before.
In the third week of "Interstellar"'s release, it sold 426,000 copies in various states of the United States.
Third on the New York Times weekly bestseller list, second only to famous author Robert James Waller's new work "The Bridges of Madison County" and John Gray's gender work "Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus."
No mistakes, one song, one hair, one inside, one appearance, one existence, one look!
Cumulative sales reached 690,000 copies, more than 100,000 copies more than the publisher's forecast.
It also shows that the quality of this book is indeed good, and readers like to read it.
It is expected to sell 1 million copies in its first month.
"Damn it, isn't Link a director? Why did he go write a book? How can so many people read such a crappy book? Are they all brainless?"
In a coffee shop, Robert Downey Jr. flipped through the Los Angeles Times. After seeing the news of Link's new book becoming a bestseller, he felt like he had swallowed a fly, very uncomfortable.
"Maybe so. Link hasn't gone to college, and his own cultural level is not high. The movies he makes are also B-movies with no cultural content. Those uncultured people like to watch them. 'Interstellar' is the same."
Kiefer Sutherland said.
Actor David Duchovny nodded in agreement with their views.
"Hey, are you guys serious?"
Julia Roberts put down her coffee spoon and looked at them.
"After 'Interstellar' was put on the shelves, Larry Niven, Arthur Clarke, and many university professors have recommended this book, believing that the level of this book is very high.
But you say that this book is not good, and only uncultured people like to read it? Have you read this book?"
"No need to read it. What good things can Link write, a person who hasn't even gone to college? University professors recommend it? As long as the money is in place, I can get the president to recommend my movie."
Robert Downey Jr. said disdainfully.
"Wow, you're so amazing. When 'Chaplin' was released, you brought in half of the entertainment industry to promote it. Why didn't you ask the president for help? Are you worried that the box office is too poor to recover the cost?"
Julia Roberts sneered.
"Julia, shut up!"
Kiefer Sutherland glared at her fiercely.
