"Netizens have discerning eyes."
When netizens saw what Li Daniu said, they immediately gave Li Daniu's post countless likes.
Speaking of which, although Li Daniu took the lead on the matter of discrimination against immigrants, the reason why so many people joined the discussion was of course not all because of the Huaxia netizens who overcame the wall to add fuel to the flames.
This is deeply related to the historical issues in the United States. In the United States, there has always been a group of people who hold white supremacy and have a discriminatory attitude towards blacks and yellow people, and discrimination incidents have occurred many times.
Most of these people who are discriminated against are immigrants or descendants of immigrants. They dream of the so-called American dream and come to the United States to work hard, but they don't get the respect they deserve. Naturally, they feel dissatisfied.
With Li Daniu's speech, some discriminatory incidents published by dissatisfied people spread the influence of the whole matter. Coupled with the attacks on the Internet by Americans who themselves have a discriminatory mentality, this matter has become the focus of the United States.
In fact, some media or public figures think that Li Daniu's attack on the Hollywood Daily is a big deal.
After all, what people say is: taking a Chinese name will have an impact on the sales of his works in the United States.
This sentence itself can be interpreted in many ways, especially for people who can refer to black as white, it can be explained in various ways that this sentence itself does not mean discrimination.
For example, saying the name in Chinese will make American readers or moviegoers not know that it is the work of Li Daniu.
The support rate of this kind of argument is not low on the Internet, and there are many people on the Internet who always have unconventional views.
And when Li Daniu said that the eyes of netizens are discerning, the flattery of this group made most people feel good about Li Daniu.
Who doesn't like being flattered by others?
For the Hollywood Daily, the latest news about Li Daniu, they only pay attention to one point, that is, Li Daniu said that his new novel will meet readers who like it.
Is there a more appropriate subject to divert than this?
So, Hollywood Daily published a news, and @李大牛.
"As you said, the eyes of netizens are discerning. So are the eyes of readers. Almost all loyal fans of "Lord of the Rings" are very fond of the world view and stingy plot in "Harry Potter" Disappointed, so, a novel that is doomed to fail, even if it meets readers who like it, how many can there be? It is said that the first printing of this book in the United States is 500,000 copies. Excuse me, one year , can it be sold out? Or, just because you said that you wanted fans to guess the sales volume, but found that you couldn't afford the reward, so you deliberately made a bad book to make everyone guess wrong?"
My grass? If Sister Rowling heard you talk about her novels like that, would she fling her billion-dollar net worth proof in your face?
Can the 500,000 copies be sold out in a year?
When people's sales are booming, is it okay to sell more than this amount in one day in the world?
Although Li Daniu knew that the word of mouth of his book was not very good in the early days when it was launched in this world, the reason can be easily analyzed.
The layout of the beginning of this book is indeed too small for fans who like "Lord of the Rings". Even the plot is not very thoughtful. An orphan who was discriminated against received an admission letter from a magic school. When he went to school, he discovered his incredible life experience, and kept upgrading, and finally defeated the villain. Big Boss, this kind of routine is actually not new.
Therefore, for adults who like "The Lord of the Rings" such an atmospheric novel, it really won't have a good impression.
Just like the previous life, no matter how many adults like to read this book, they are loyal fans of this book, but the real reader group of this book is people aged 6-15.
In Li Daniu's view, the main reason why the sales volume of this book was not so ideal after being on the shelves for a few weeks was because his fame was too great.
Yes, the fame gained from the book "Lord of the Rings" is too great.
Therefore, many of his fans look forward to his new book, which is the novel world like an epic masterpiece.
With this expectation, seeing a novel with the format of "Harry Potter", naturally there will be no favorable comments.
It's like a seed that has been sown for days and nights, and after opening it turns out to be a gourd baby. Does the gourd baby look good? Very entertaining to watch for kids, and even quite a few adults.
But are you **** kidding me for someone who already has their pants down and toilet paper in hand?
Naturally, all the disappointing reviews discouraged many people who wanted to buy this book.
However, classics are classics. Li Daniu is different from Hollywood Daily, which only focuses on big data. He has discovered the charm of this book from the feedback of some readers on the Internet. It has been discovered and will soon spread.
With such a single spark, are you afraid that it will not start a prairie fire?
"If the 500,000 copies can't be sold out this month, then I won't write any more books from now on. If the sales volume exceeds 500,000 copies this month, what are you or you guys going to do? As for not being able to pay the reward For one thing, I really want to say that even if the one with the most guessed numbers becomes the final answer, then I can afford it, and the profit from one movie is enough.”
Not long after Li Daniu's post was posted, the Hollywood Daily forwarded it and commented.
"As long as you don't spend your own money to find someone to buy it, then all of us Hollywood Daily colleagues will go naked on the Hollywood Walk of Fame."
The reason why The Hollywood Journal dared to take such a big bet is that so far, the novel has sold only 150,000 copies in the three weeks it has been on the shelves, and only 20,000 copies in the last week. It is simply impossible to sell 350,000 copies in the remaining week or so.
Moreover, in their view, Li Daniu is a foreigner after all, and no matter how much the American people dislike them, it is impossible for them to help Li Daniu to deal with them.
Just like in the previous life, when Dayao first arrived in the NBA, someone threatened that he would not be able to score 19 points, and if he did, he would kiss the donkey's ass. Even though there are many people in the NBA who don't like this threat, and even many people expect him to kiss the **** of a donkey, no one will let Dayao get points.
The sales volume of 350,000 copies a week is only possible for "The Lord of the Rings" in the most popular period. As for novels like "Harry Potter", which are more complicated than fairy tales and much simpler than adult books, how could it be possible?
Besides, even if it was really sold, they would absolutely deny it, saying that Li Daniu spent money to find someone to buy it. As for the evidence? Do you have any evidence to prove that Li Daniu didn't spend money to buy books?
Media people's lips have always been very sharp.
When Li Daniu saw that the other party accepted the offer, he immediately took up the challenge. Even if he failed, he would not write books in the future at most. As long as he found a suitable agent for those works in his previous life, he could still publish them. He only needed to earn money.
Besides, could Li Daniu fail? Thinking about the discussions about this novel in some middle school forums, Li Daniu believed that as long as he contributed to the flames, the remaining 350,000 volumes would be nothing to worry about.
Some people have not figured out where the real positioning of this book is. Of course, for adults, the opinions of middle school students can basically be ignored, even in the United States, which claims to let children be independent.
Following the Hollywood Daily's apology for his previous remarks and the establishment of this bet, the attention of most netizens has been shifted here. After all, no one likes arguments that cannot be refuted at all. Well-known forces, such as the U.S. government’s deliberate guidance to manipulate public opinion, made the impact of this sudden immigration discrimination change from big to small.
However, this incident is not without benefits. At least Americans will not dare to blatantly discriminate against them for a period of time in the future.
At the request of Li Daniu, the Hollywood Daily released a news directly, reporting the current staff of their company, the signature confirmation letter for the bet, and even the signature of the Hollywood Daily boss For the Hollywood Daily As far as the boss is concerned, as long as the most adverse effects of this incident can be eliminated, even if he does not lose the bet, he is willing to let him go naked. For shameless people who rely on gossip news out of thin air to make money, money is the most important thing.
When Li Daniu and Louis of Sunshine Publishing House were discussing the plan to increase sales, there was a wave of going abroad and purchasing agents in Huaxia on the other side of the ocean. Unlike before, everyone liked to ask for cosmetics, luxury goods or digital products. This time, they hoped to get a novel called "Harry Potter".
The purchaser asked if the English version of the novel could be read and understood?
Damn, who wants to read books, I'm supporting my international friend Li Daniu, okay? Even if Huaxia currency is less exchanged for US dollars, how much is a book worth?
If Li Daniu loses, which foreign celebrity would be willing to take a Chinese name in the future? How will the Chinese language go to the world?
The effect of celebrity effect is much better than that of the Confucius Institutes that are making money everywhere.
So, it's a war! (To be continued.)
