The publication of "One Day" has become the biggest hot spot in March. Evan Bell, a well-known all-round talent in Hollywood, challenges novel creation this time, although Evan Bell has previously passed "Brokeback Mountain" and "Perfume". And "Juno" has proved its script ability and writing skills, but the creation of novels is still different, and people are very curious about the quality of the novel.
"One Day" was officially launched on the shelves at 9:30 a.m. on March 2. Since there was no publicity before this, no one knew that Evan Bell released a new book as a writer, and the increase in sales was not obvious until 12 noon. Take the nine branches of Barnes e Noble Bookstore in New York as an example. From 9:30 to 10:30, Evan Bell signed the book sale at the Fifth Avenue branch, and only sold 300 copies in the first half hour. That's all, this number is not much, but it is still a decent number for the current sluggish publishing market. In the second half hour, the sales of nine branches increased, and a thousand copies were sold, and the sales speed was more than three times that of 30 minutes ago. This increase is indeed terrifying.
From 10:30 to 12:00, the New York branch of the Noble Bookstore in Barnes Village sold a total of 9,000 copies, and it can be seen that the shipment volume has risen to 3,000 copies every 30 minutes.
As a result, more than 10,000 copies were sold in a city in New York "in one day" in the morning. To do a very simple arithmetic problem, anyone can do it. The first day of the "one day" release will be listed in 20 cities in the United States at the same time. If the sales volume of each city on the first day is 10,000, it will be 200,000. And the first edition of "One Day" was a million, just a million, what does that mean? It means that as the news spreads, not only professional book fans, but Evan Bell's fans alone will be enough to digest this first edition for one million.
So, without Les-Rini worrying or hesitating, the publisher immediately started printing the second edition. This time, the publisher has reprinted a total of 1.5 million copies. You must know that the reprint is not the first edition. Generally speaking, the sales of books are booming, declining, and exhausting. The reprint has the courage to print. One and a half million copies, the publishers are absolutely insane.
But it turns out that the publishers are really crazy - they're still too slow.
Before four o'clock in the afternoon, "one day" in the 50,000-book inventory of Noble Bookstore in Barnes 6, New York, was announced. warehouse. Where is this buying books, completely robbing books, in a trance, people seem to see the scene when Evan Bell's album was released, or the scene when the "Harry Potter" series was released.
Naturally, the book "One Day" is not all sold in physical bookstores. It can also be pre-ordered on websites such as Amazon. This is also one of the most common ways to buy books in the United States. The impact of bookstores is huge. Facts have also proved this.
In the first hour or so, no one placed an order on Amazon.com, but as news spread on Twitter, the order almost paralyzed Amazon.com. On the second day alone, orders from Amazon and other websites reached as high as 500,000 copies, which means that only online sales, 500,000 copies were sold in a single day!
What is even more shocking is that after New York announced that its inventory had been closed, news came one after another from 19 other cities in the United States, and their inventory was all sold out. In other words, just after 5:00 pm ET, "One Day"'s first edition of 1 million books officially sold!
Sold out! This is absolutely shocking news. From 9:30 to 5:00 pm last year, it took less than eight hours! It sold one million copies, which can be said to have shaken the publishing market three times.
Although one million of "Harry Potter" is only one-third of the three million copies sold in the UK in one day, the point is that this time Evan Bell did not carry out any Propaganda, and this is only his first creation, and one million is the full amount of the first edition - which means that it is not that the sales figures are not going up, but that there are no books in the warehouse to sell, otherwise, Evan - It's not impossible for Bell to get closer to the sky-high sales figures of "Harry Potter".
The publishers are naturally crazy, they think their actions are fast enough, but compared to the madness of the public, their actions are like snails, and they are not worth mentioning at all. Time is money, and now every minute of delay can cost sales, and publishers aren't even sure if the number of 1.5 million reprints is too conservative.
In the face of such a situation, it can only be said that the public's trust in Evan Bell has indeed reached a new height. Although Evan Bell has always been unemployed, his challenges in every field always start in doubt, but he responds to all doubts with the most beautiful transcripts. Therefore, when they learned that Evan Bell published the book, the public did not consider that this was the first time Evan Bell wrote, nor did they worry about the quality of the book! In addition to the enthusiasm of the fans, the unconditional support of the public is also an important factor for "One Day" to sell out the first edition on the first day.
What is even more shocking is that before the hour hand on the 2nd turns to the 3rd, the number of people who have registered for pre-order reprints in physical bookstores has exceeded 150,000, and the orders from major websites on the Internet have grown to 800,000 copies. In other words, if all these data are added up, the sales volume of "one day" on the first day will reach 1.95 million copies. This data is too overbearing.
Hidden behind this series of numbers, the publishers started to sweat. They reprinted 1.5 million copies, which seemed to be not enough to read, except for the 950,000 copies that had been ordered by the website and bookstore. , and then there are bound to be people who are willing to buy again, so it is not impossible for the inventory to be emptied on the first day again. So, in desperation, the publishers on the one hand let the printing house work overtime, and on the other hand held a meeting to discuss the plan for the third edition.
Just as people can't wait for this reprint to be released "one day", the readers who snapped up the first edition of the novel have all started this magical journey of reading the novel. Over the course of the next week, reviews of "One Day" appeared in the newspapers.
The "New York Times" commented, "If you are often fascinated by the sad past and daydreams of your youth, then you must not miss this novel."

The "People" magazine commented, "This is a beautiful story that travels across the European continent, bringing the most heartbreaking regret and melancholy in the world. Evan's writing is so beautiful that it is unreal, but cruel to the point of A story that is too realistic and heart-wrenching.”

In the comments, they also dedicated Evan- Bell's talent sighed, "Evan, who is omnipotent, allows us to clearly see his ability to control words. Imagine if Evan presented this story in pictures, it might be so beautiful that it hurts: But presenting it in words also takes our breath away.”
The British "Guardian" commented, "Put down the book, and their vivid images will immediately come to mind, like the closest friends coming, laughing from the heart, and infinitely sentimental."
"The Times" said, "The writing is wise and the description is intricate. Lian Yan's humor makes people happy, sentimental makes people sad, really good book. Evan's wise novel can't help but think of Nick-Horn. BI: You melt as you read it, and time slips by without you noticing."
In addition, the "New Yorker" also commented, "A dazzling masterpiece that touches the heart and soul of the barriers and measures that take place around us, and it can be called the most legendary and soothing after 'The Time Traveler's Wife'.
