Small ÷ Said ◎ Net 】, ♂ Small ÷ Said ◎ Net 】,
As a best-selling novelist in China, Li Tianming's new book launch was very lively, and dozens of media outlets, large and small, came to interview him.
In addition to Li Tianming, there are several senior officials of Sihai Publishing House in the main seat. After listening to the host's introduction, even Huang Zhenhua, the vice president of Sihai Publishing House, is cheering for his platform. The importance of "Fantasy City".
The reporter's questions at the beginning were all about Li Tianming's book, and Xiao Yunhai had no interest in it. It wasn't until a tabloid reporter asked about Xiao Yunhai's "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" that Xiao Yunhai took it seriously.
"Excuse me, Mr. Li Tianming, I don't know if you have heard of the martial arts novel "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang". Earlier, you said that martial arts was dead, but this novel sold 80,000 in just two days. Ben. Don't know what you think about that?"
Li Tianming frowned slightly and said with a smile, "Who is the author of this novel? I've been busy these days, so I don't know much about this martial arts novel."
"The author is just a newcomer, called Tianwai Ke."
"Then he is quite powerful. However, I once said that martial arts were dead, and I still think so. Occasionally writing a best-selling martial arts novel does not mean that martial arts can survive. Without a solid foundation in Chinese studies, Without outstanding innovation ability, without a large number of die-hard fans, it is tantamount to wanting to save the martial arts of the sunset. To counter or change the trend of history. I changed from martial arts to fantasy because I saw this."
"Then do you think this new novel will pose a threat to you. I heard that bookstores all over the country have begun to introduce this novel."
"Hehe, absolutely not. If there is an opponent, my opponent is myself. As for the martial arts novels, hehe, I really don't take it to heart. It's just that I use the identity of a senior, To persuade the author, martial arts has declined, so you should look for another type of novel."
"Then what kind of results do you think your "Illusion City" will achieve?"
……………………
Xiao Yunhai stopped when he saw this, the following is not the focus of his attention.
"A good martial artist has died, I really don't know how high the sky is. I didn't know it before, but starting from today, Xiao Yunhai will definitely carry the banner of martial arts and let it flow upstream in the surprise of everyone." Xiao Yunhai thought in his heart. said firmly.
Another three days have passed, and "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" is still selling at an astonishing rate, selling tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of copies every day. In the same period, "Illusionary City" was even more crazy. In addition to the 400,000 pre-orders on the Internet, the physical sales actually sold 300,000. This month has become the world of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" and "Illusory City". All the other books were overwhelmed by them.
In this regard, Xiao Yunhai is naturally very happy. Although the sales of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" is not as good as that of "Fantasy City", a new work can still compete with "Fantasy City" even though the author's popularity is not as good as others. people were very surprised. This is a typical case of Xiaoboda.
So Xiao Yunhai was very satisfied, but Zhang Liye didn't think so. After he carefully read "Imaginary City", he felt that compared with the fantasy novels emerging on the Internet, although Li Tianming's writing style was obviously stronger than those of those Internet writers, the idea, plot, and context of the story were very ordinary, far from Without the eclectic and eclectic style of today's best-selling online writers, Li Tianming's fame probably accounted for the bulk of his achievements.
The "Legend of Chu Liuxiang" is very different from the other party. Its achievements are completely driven by the quality of the book, and its stamina is far stronger than that of "Illusory City".
He felt that if "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" had the fame of "Magic City", its performance should not lose to "Magic City", or even surpass it is not impossible.
As Zhang Liye, who has been working as an editor of martial arts novels all his life, the contacts he has accumulated over the past few decades have played a huge role at this moment. Many famous martial arts novel writers have helped to promote the "Legend of Chu Liuxiang" after reading the "Legend of Chu Liuxiang" sent by him. .
Mainland martial arts master Gu Pingyong posted a comment in the People's Daily.
"Recently, I was fortunate enough to read a "Legend of Chu Liuxiang", and I was overjoyed. At the time when martial arts novels were declining, it was a great comfort for me to be able to see such a novel full of novelty. When Mr. Ke sees it, he will listen to the teachings."
Gu Pingyong's words are not many, but the weight is very heavy. Even a master-level figure like him has to listen to his teachings. Whether it is modest or not, it fully shows that he values this novel.
Just when Xiao Yunhai's supporters were ecstatic, many martial arts writers wrote comments on the legend of Chu Liuxiang.
"Through the recommendation of Minsheng Publishing House, I read Mr. Tian Wai Ke's masterpiece "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", and I had to say a word to him. Mr. Tian Wai Ke creatively combined detective and martial arts. The martial arts world is definitely a pioneering work. Many people say that martial arts is dead, but I want to tell him that martial arts has never died. It just lacks a person who can carry on the past, and now this person has been found, it is Mr. Tian Wai Ke. "

"In today's day when fantasy novels are popular, I am very pleased to see The Legend of Chu Liuxiang, which retains the original flavor of martial arts, but is different from other novels. The Chu Liuxiang created by Mr. Tianwaike is full of a kind of Indescribable charm, his Qinggong is unparalleled in the world, and his martial arts is also superb, but when he shot, he had a heart of compassion. A trace of blood, how hard it is. How can we not love such an otherworldly character?"
------- Liang Menglong
When these masters of martial arts novels stood up to cheer for "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", well-known bookstores in major cities across the country called one after another, requesting to introduce a large number of martial arts novels like "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", Minsheng Publishing House was naturally pleased agree. It's just that the demand outweighs the supply. In desperation, three printing factories can only be hired outside, working day and night, which ensures a balance between supply and demand.
A rough calculation shows that the sales volume of the entire Chu Liuxiang legend has reached 1.2 million copies. This is under the premise that the market is not saturated, which makes Zhang Liye a little dizzy, his blood pressure is a little high, and he even wakes up from a dream many times laughing.
