Chapter 49： Questions of the American people

The launch of the novel "The Lord of the Rings" can be said to be uneventful.

Apart from those well-known writers who promote their own novels at their own expense, there are few other channels for publicity and promotion. Of course, this has to exclude a few really very high-level public figures.

Li Daniu was not well-known, and Lunar Publishing House never believed in his level, so after Li Daniu published it at his own expense, Lunar Publishing House just used its own supply channels to send "The Lord of the Rings" to bookstores in some major cities in the United States.

Although there are 100,000 sets of the first printing, they are spread over the entire United States. After nearly a thousand bookstores, each bookstore really does not have much stock. Moreover, for bookstores, such self-published books are not like other books. If they cannot be sold, they can find out the publisher's refund at the original price. This is also a customary rule in the self-publishing industry. A few sets, and no bookstore is willing to spend this unjustified money to buy back.

The book "The Lord of the Rings" was originally discovered by some people when they were looking through it inadvertently when they were purchasing in a bookstore.

People flock together, and those who like to read books will probably have a few people who share the same hobby, so the small-scale recommendations will start slowly.

Speaking of recommendations, how can we miss out on the Internet? Now is the era of the Internet, and everyone’s life cannot be separated from the Internet. Has become a habit.

So, someone started to promote this book in the bases of several famous reading lovers on the Internet.

At this time, Li Daniu found out that someone was criticizing him on the eye book. Afterwards, Li Daniu discussed publishing with Sunshine Publishing House, acquired a film company in Hollywood, and then returned to Tuvalu to make a movie. Therefore, he missed the explosive period of recommending the book "Lord of the Rings" on the Internet.

Renault, a well-known venomous commentator, is the trigger for the outbreak of the recommendation trend.

Ever since Lei Nuo became famous for his venomous comments and attacks on various public figures, his life has changed a lot, from an otaku to an internet celebrity with nearly 2 million followers. This is not only a change in spiritual life, but also a change in material life. Not to mention some products that need to be promoted are advertised through his eyebook, even some variety shows or reality shows in the United States often invite him to appear on the show . In this way, the income will be higher, and the material life will also be changed.

It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

Renault has become more and more venomous since he enjoyed the benefits of fame. Not only that, he used to post status and videos to make venomous comments after seeing something on the Internet or the news. The current Renault has evolved into a critic who has nothing to do with his tongue.

After becoming famous, there are naturally some relationships, and these relationships are also happy to disclose some unimportant news to Renault, so that Renault can use it to make use of it.

The fact that Li Daniu published the novel "The Lord of the Rings" at his own expense was the information Lei Nuo received from Lunar Publishing House. At that time, Renault was excited. Wasn't this sent to his door to make himself venomous?

As a king, and a king of a least developed country, instead of reforming his own country, he has the leisure to write novels and publish them at his own expense.

When Renault learned that this novel called "The Lord of the Rings" was judged by the editor-in-chief of Lunar Publishing House to be a novel of little interest, he became even more excited. Not only did this have a flaw, but people who could refute it had nothing to say, so Lei Nuo excitedly published the news of his criticism before he got the book he ordered.

Then Renault was in tragedy.

After getting "Lord of the Rings", Renault couldn't wait to read it. At first, he had the mentality of just looking around to find some slots. After watching, Renault's reading speed became slower and slower, and finally even reversed. At the beginning, read it again.

After watching it for the first time, Renault's first reaction was that he was cheated. Not by the friend who sent the news to me, but by the editor-in-chief of the Moon Publishing House. How **** unprofessional are you to call such a book a worthless book?

Renault is no fool, he knows that his reputation rests on his venomous tongue, or strictly speaking, his well-founded venomous comments. If he didn't have sufficient evidence and only relied on his poisonous tongue, he wouldn't be able to achieve his current fame.

Ever since he became an Internet celebrity, he has always obtained all the evidence before making his own comments, which is why so many people pay attention to him.

However, most people will involuntarily swell up after getting fame, status, and money that they have never imagined before.

This is the case for Renault, when he got the news of the book "Lord of the Rings" when he was the most swollen in his life, so he didn't think much, and directly criticized it first. It wasn't until he finished reading the book that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Netizens don't understand that he was duped, and even the diggers didn't expect anyone to fall into this pit. Netizens will only find out that Renault made a mistake this time, and it was a very serious mistake. Losing followers is the lightest, and if it is more serious, it may cause netizens to question all their previous comments. When Internet celebrities cannot get the support of netizens, it is more serious than congressmen not getting the support of voters, because Internet celebrities only have netizens.

After Renault read the book, he knew that sooner or later, this book would become popular one day, and there would be no room for compensation for what he had done, so he resolutely wrote in his eyes. , began the road of self-redemption.

Inadvertently, Lei Nuo discovered @自己的新闻, there was an authentication number, the name turned out to be Tarek, the same name as the author, and after clicking on it, he found that the authenticated identity was actually the king of Tuvalu.

This is really God helping me, Lei Nuo sighed, there is no other way to redeem it, what can be compared to directly apologizing to the original author, so the crazy @tarek started.

But during this period of time, Li Daniu has been busy with movies, so he has no time and energy to pay attention to the news on the Internet. If you don't pay attention, you won't see it, and if you don't see it, you won't reply. But he didn't know that this kind of non-reply made Lei Nuo's pressure suddenly increase.

Only an apology that is forgiven is a meaningful apology. In order to save his reputation, Lei Nuo wanted to apologize to Li Daniu in front of the undisputed quality of "The Lord of the Rings", but he didn't expect that he didn't get a reply for several days.

Lei Nuo never thought that Li Daniu would be busy, because he checked Tuvalu, a small country cannot be in a small country, besides, as a king, Li Daniu had time to write a long fantasy novel, and read the content The splendor is definitely not something that can be produced in three to five months, and the time it takes must be calculated in years. Otherwise, but in "The Lord of the Rings", the language of those races cannot be so real.

What's more, it didn't take long for me to criticize this book when Li Daniu @自己.

The more Lei Nuo thought about it, he began to suspect that it was his simple apology that did not get Li Daniu's forgiveness. But if you think about it carefully, this is also normal. Anyone who has worked so hard to write a work will be very unhappy if it is criticized by people who have not read it. And this author is still a king, a king of a monarchy country, who is used to speaking out, how could he forgive someone who offended him so easily?

After much deliberation, Lei Nuo decided to make an advertisement for "The Lord of the Rings" for free, because he knew that self-published books like this usually don't have any advertisements, and Li Daniu is not well-known in the United States. According to the statistics of authoritative websites According to the report, this book has been on the shelves for a week, but only sold more than 100 copies.

After Lei Nuo praised his wit, he started to spare no effort to advertise. Not only did he keep recommending this book on his eyebook, but he also mobilized some well-connected Internet celebrities to show his interest in the book. This book is recommended on the book or other platforms.

In the Internet age, the power of internet celebrities cannot be underestimated.

Renault itself has nearly 2 million fans, plus some other Internet celebrities, the direct audience of this promotion has exceeded 5 million people.

One hundred thousand sets of "Lord of the Rings", compared to five million people, is really not worth mentioning. Even if only one-twentieth of the five million people are willing to read this book, that's not enough.

The charm of the book "The Lord of the Rings", as long as people who have read it, few people can resist it. Americans like to read on paper. Therefore, in the second week after "Lord of the Rings" was released, 100,000 sets were sold out.

This achievement made "Lord of the Rings" the top of the weekly list of best-sellers.

If a person who likes to read sees the weekly champion position on the bestseller list, which is a book he has never heard of, he will naturally want to see what kind of work it is.

However, at this time, the first print of 100,000 sets was sold out, and the second batch of "Lord of the Rings" printed after Sunshine Publishing received the contract had not yet hit the shelves.

The American people were surprised to find that they couldn't buy this novel that won the first place in the weekly list in any bookstore. UU Reading

What the **** is going on? Could it be that the website that counts book sales data has played a joke on people all over the United States? In fact, there is no such book at all?

But today is not April Fool's Day.

There are too many curious people, especially after some media reported on this matter, there are even more curious people.

People in the 21st century have a good habit. Whenever they have a question, the first place to ask is the Internet.

I searched for "The Lord of the Rings" with a search engine, and the results displayed surprised the American people again, because all the search results about this book, except for the two keywords of weekly list and out of stock, It was all praises.

There is no zero negative reviews in the Internet age, which is a fact recognized all over the world. But "The Lord of the Rings", which has sold over 100,000 copies, can't find any news on the Internet saying that this book is not good. Is this hype a bit too much investment?

It's no wonder that the first reaction of netizens was hype, it's really because there are too many hypes these days.

Before the netizen’s comments came to fruition, someone discovered that this book actually had negative reviews. The negative reviewer was the famous critic Renault, and when he clicked on the homepage of the Renault Eye Book, his glasses fell to the ground again, because Renault The reversal of attitude toward the book was all too quick.

Reynolds is Thor?

Few people would say that, because Renault had already sworn in his eyebook that he was not a child.

So, here comes the question, is this book really that good-looking?

If it's so good-looking, why don't publishers replenish it in time?
