Rebirth of Hong Kong Island: I am a world tycoon
Chapter 157
"Boss, is there still "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth"?" Early in the morning, Xiao Liu, a staff member of Cheung Kong Industrial, hurried to a nearby bookstore before it was time to go to work.
Yesterday was the first day of "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth" was on sale, and Xiao Liu originally planned to buy it when he got back from work.
He is a fan of Huang Xiaoyi, he has read almost every novel, and he has been looking forward to the new science fiction novel for several days since the newspaper advertisement.
As a result, after getting off work, Xiao Liu, who hurried to the bookstore, learned that they were all sold out today, and the new goods would not be available until tomorrow morning.
After that, he even searched several bookstores, but was told that they were sold out.
There are a lot of readers who are like him, and everyone is off work at this time.
So he deliberately got up half an hour early this morning, according to usual, he likes to lie in bed, and he won't get up until the time.
It was only half past eight in the morning, and the bookstore had just opened, but it was already crowded.
"Don't worry, just arrived 300 copies, all of them, on the bookshelf over there, everyone took the books one by one to line up to pay the money, don't crowd it, to prevent accidents. "Several staff members in the bookstore are maintaining order.
They have experienced yesterday's rush to buy, and they are already very experienced, and yesterday the bookstore bought 300 copies, but they didn't expect to be sold out in the afternoon.
It stands to reason that not too many people will buy it today, so the store manager has only bought 300 copies, and it should be able to sell for several days.
Who would have thought that readers who bought the book yesterday, after reading the novel, praised the novel one after another, so that its reputation skyrocketed, and those who didn't buy it thought about buying it again today.
Hearing the clerk say that everyone has goods, Xiao Liu was excited, he could finally buy it, and when he had nothing to do at work, he had novels to pass the time.
There were only more than a hundred readers at the scene, and he didn't panic at all, because there was still half an hour to go to work.
However, he gradually realized that something was wrong, what the hell, why did that boy take three copies of "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth"?
And this girl, too, is too strong, why did he directly move five copies to the checkout?
Why did he buy so much?
And people kept coming in to ask if there was "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth".
Xiao Liu looked at the inventory on the bookshelf again, there were three hundred books, and there were less than a few dozen books left at this time.
Where did he still have his composure, and he quickly wanted to go up and grab it, but there was a surge of people inside, and he couldn't squeeze in.
When he squeezed inside, there was still a ...... for the novel "The Three-Body Problem" on the shelf
Xiao Liu wanted to cry without tears, and he said that he had a share?
Quickly grabbed a boy who was about to go to the checkout with four novels, and said, "Hello, can you let me have one, it's useless to buy so many copies."
"I bought it for my roommate, don't pull me, I have to pay the bill and get it back to my roommate." The boy said impatiently.
Xiao Liu looked at the empty shelf, and had no choice but to run over and ask the clerk if there was any stock.
The clerk also looked at the scene with a bewildered face, which was even more terrifying than yesterday.
"No, 300 copies are on the shelves, I don't know if they will be stocked in the afternoon, why don't you look at other books?" said the clerk, shaking his head.
Come on, this trip was in vain, and Xiao Liu reluctantly walked out of the bookstore.
Look at the time, there are still more than ten minutes to go to work, and there happens to be another one not far away, Xiao Liu plans to try his luck.
"Boss, is there still "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth"?" ran to this bookstore, Xiao Liu couldn't wait to ask.
Because everyone has about the same working hours, there are no more people in the bookstore at this time.
"You're a coincidence, there's just one book left, nay, on that bookshelf over there. A clerk said, pointing to the bookshelf next to it.
Xiao Liu breathed a sigh of relief, this trip was not in vain, how can he care so much, he learned from experience, hurriedly took the book in his hand, and then went to the cashier to check out.
Not only Xiao Liu, but there are many readers like him everywhere, which is enough to show that this newly listed science fiction novel has conquered many readers as soon as it is listed.
In less than two days after its release, how popular is the book "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth" on Hong Kong Island?
It has directly caused a wave of science fiction, and even some readers who don't usually read science fiction novels are deeply attracted by the stories in the novel.
In places such as Treasure Island, "The Three-Body Problem" has also become a hot topic.
"Have you read the book "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth"?"
"Let's discuss the plot in "The Three-Body Problem", which paragraph do you think is the most exciting. "
......
It can be said that this novel is more popular than all of Chen Zhixue's novels in the past.
Early in the morning, Chen Zhixue read the newspaper on the 48th floor of the Gangwan Building, which he bought casually when he asked Aunt Wu to go grocery shopping.
Last night, Zhu Qianwei pestered him until 12 o'clock before going to bed, after all, he hadn't come for so long, and he was directly squeezed twice before he was willing to let him go.
When he got up in the morning, Chen Zhixue still felt a little tired.
Sure enough, doing too much is harmful to the body.
Zhu Qianwei was very satisfied with Chen Zhixue's performance last night, and at this time she was holding grapes from the fruit bowl and feeding Chen Zhixue one by one.
Chen Zhixue enjoyed this kind of life very much, and at this time he was reading the latest version of "Ming Pao".
In the column of famous comments, Chen Zhixue saw Jin Yongxia's comments on "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth".
"Spread out this book, from the flapping wings of the universe to the butterfly and the stars, hundreds of billions of years of time whistling in your ears, the universe collapsed into a singularity, leaving only the past of the earth, the slowly swirling echo, Mr. Huang Xiaoyi single-handedly raised Chinese science fiction literature to a world-class level.
Jin Daxia's evaluation is very high, which makes Chen Zhixue can't help but sigh that Da Liu's book is worthy of the highest standard masterpiece of Chinese science fiction in later generations.
In addition, Chen Zhixue also saw an interview article with Oriental Daily News by a certain reader:
"This is a very unusual book, a unique stew that contains scientific and philosophical conjectures, politics and history, conspiracy theories and cosmology. Kings and emperors from Chinese and Western history converge in a fantastic game, while police and physicists deal with global conspiracies, murders, and alien invasions in the real world.
"Compared with its gorgeous language, the most touching thing about Huang Xiaoyi's work is the gorgeous imagination. The common imagination in science fiction is grandiose, weird, and logical, but imagination full of beauty like this is precious. Let's open the book and see what the "Three-Body Civilization" looks like four light years away. After
reading all the newspapers, Chen Zhixue was in a very good mood, his waist was no longer sore, and his legs were no longer numb.
"Boss, I think you're the best writer in the world. Zhu Qianwei looked at Chen Zhixue with admiration.
Listening to his woman's praise of himself, Chen Zhixue was in a more beautiful mood.
