Chapter 44

Sony Colombia is one of Hollywood's six giants.

Has a complete production and distribution channel.

The influence in the North American entertainment industry can be described by the phrase 'horror is like this'.

Whether it is a TV station or a variety of media and newspapers, they have a very terrifying influence.

Now they are willing to pay a lot of money to help Kitahara Zhen promote "Norwegian Forest", which is absolutely beneficial and harmless to Kitahara Makoto.

Of course, Sony Columbia said it would cost 'thirty million dollars'.

But many of the publicity channels are their own channels.

At most, it only costs some labor costs.

It is impossible to really put 30 million dollars into it.

After all, capital is profit-seeking, and it is impossible to do things without high costs.

Whether these resources are converted to 30 million US dollars in the end, only Colombia itself knows.

But none of this has anything to do with Kitahara.

After getting the film and television adaptation rights of "Norwegian Forest".

Sony Columbia immediately fulfilled its commitment and began promoting Norwegian Forest across North America.

The original agent 'Jimmy' also reached a promise with Sony Colombia, spit out part of the benefits, and then fully cooperated with Sony Colombia's publicity.

Because he's not stupid either.

A 100-gram cake, even if he can get 50%, it is only 50 grams.

But a 1,000-gram cake, even if he can only divide 20%, he can have 200 grams, far exceeding the original income.

Such a simple arithmetic problem is a choice for everyone.

Under the publicity of Sony Colombia.

"Norwegian Forest", which was originally just a bit of a bestseller, immediately became like a spark, its fame increased greatly, sales soared, and there were signs of a small fire.

......

"Norwegian Forest" is one of Murakami's masterpieces.

This work lacks the gloomy and heavy text atmosphere of the post-war period of Dongying.

Instead, it is a light tone, and there is a fresh and elegant style between the words.

It is precisely this style of writing that is popular in Europe, the United States and the West.

It is a very familiar style of writing for Western readers.

Under the vigorous promotion of Sony Columbia, the already good quality "Norwegian Woods" immediately exploded into great potential.

In the fifth week of its release in North America, 120,000 copies were sold in a single week.

Week 6, 190,000 copies.

Week 7, 230,000 copies.

......

Kitahara really caught fire and became the most popular writer of Dongying writers in North America.

After this news was transmitted back to China, ordinary people collectively climaxed.

A sense of pride arises.

Look, our writers, are on fire in North America.

Our culture has been recognized by the people of the largest country.

Under the influence of this concept, many people regard support Kitahara Ma as supporting national culture.

So "Norwegian Forest" sold out.

It's really bursting.

Sold half a million copies a week.

Directly empty the original inventory of Xinchao Society.

I have never seen a literary writer with such horrific sales.

The top management of the New Tide Society was almost scared to pee.

Then quickly asked Kitahara to come over and sign the contract for additional printing.

1.5 million copies, 25% royalty.

That's right, Kitahara really royalties have gone up again.

Seeing that Kitahara's true future is limitless.

In order to keep him this pillar.

Without him opening his mouth, the New Tide Society took the initiative to increase by one percentage point.

The price is 3,300 yen.

This time, he received 1,237.5 million yen.

Sudden wealth, real wealth in the true sense.

Only this amount of money, direct wealth freedom.

However, the sales of "Norwegian Forest" did not disappoint Shinshoshi and Kitahara.

In the second week, although it slipped slightly, it still sold 390,000 copies.

In the third week, 310,000 copies were sold.

......

May 18th.

Summer.

In the evening, after dinner.

Mama Kitahara sits on the sofa, Shiwa Kasumigaoka in his left hand and Mai Sakurajima in his right hand, watching a variety show on TV.

The two women were discussing where to go in two days.

The day after tomorrow it will be 520.

During this period, Kitahara really made a huge amount of money and was in a very good mood.

Just in time for 520, I decided to take Shiwa Kasumigaoka, Megumi Kato, and Mai Sakurajima to go out and shop like crazy on that day.

After all, brocade clothes do not walk at night.

If you make a lot of money, of course, you must share your success and joy with those closest to you.

"Jingle bells..."

Just when Kitahara was really absent-minded and thinking about which side of the grapes to eat, a mobile phone ringing suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

Mai Sakurajima got up and handed him her phone.

"Hey, Editor-in-Chief Yamamoto, what's going on?"

"Kitahara writer, are you watching TV now?"

"TV?"

Kitahara really looked at the TV in front of him and said.

"I'm watching."

"Then look at NHK!"

“NHK？"

A hint of doubt flashed in Kitahara's eyes.

NHK, also known as the Dongying Broadcasting Association, is the first radio and television station in Dongying to cover the whole country.

It is one of the top five television stations.

It is also Dongying's uncrowned 'CCTV'.

Seeing Yamamoto and Noboru's tone was a little anxious.

Kitahara took the remote control and transferred the station to NHK TV.

"Recently, China's well-known outstanding young writer Kitahara Zhen, the new book "Norwegian Forest" sold well in the North American market, what is the specific situation, let's find out..."

It's NHK's evening news time.

The well-dressed presenter sits in front of the stage, while the scene behind him is a North American bookstore where many people buy "Norwegian Woods".

The news didn't last long, just over a minute.

But when the news is over.

Mai Sakurajima and Shiwa Kasumigaoka were both stunned.

Mai Sakurajima said a little stunned: "Ah Jin, you are on the NHK evening news!" "

"Yes, yes..."

Kitahara was also a little unexpected.

This is NHK's evening news.

Although it is not as good as CCTV on the other side of the ocean.

But for a young writer.

This is also bull beep, okay?!

"Ahhh, Ah Zhen, you're on the TV news!"

After coming back to his senses, Shiwa Kasumigaoka directly hugged Kitahara Mama and screamed madly.
