Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

Chapter 431 Chapter 431: Breaking 10 million in the first week

The day "Room" was released, the novel moved the world.

As the slogan of Scholar Press goes, "This is a book for all mothers and children in the world."

The first batch of book fans who bought the book were moved by the story of Elizabeth and Tate, the mother and son in the novel. Female readers in particular almost all read the novel with tears in their eyes.

Different from Shanhe's previous works, the novel "Room" is written more delicately by Shanhe, using more pen power to describe the details of the characters, and the emotions are very full.

The greatness of maternal love and the innocence of children in the book directly touch the sensitive points of women's hearts. This is a book that is very suitable for female readers.

This is indeed the case.

On the first day "Room" was released, the book review comment area of ​​Amazon Book Store was completely occupied by readers of "Room".

Tens of thousands of comments brought the entire book review area into a dual state of excitement and sadness.

Among them, female readers and fans account for more than half of the messages.

"Thank you Hua Xiaqiu, "The Room" is the most touching book I have ever read, because he wrote about the greatness of maternal love. I am a mother, and I can better understand what Elizabeth has experienced. For the sake of her children, a mother can change from weak to strong. Be strong and fearless!”

"I cried. Although I don't have children yet, "Room" reminded me of my mother's love. There is no emotion in this world that is more selfless than maternal love. I need to go home and thank my mother! Thank her for giving me life and giving me Unparalleled love!"

""The Room" may not be as fascinating as "The Young Ones", nor is it as bizarre as Life of Fantasy. It just uses the eyes of a mother and son to tell a story born of sin, but it is a great work because Hua Xiaqiu touches When it comes to the fundamentals of human nature and society…”

"This is a sad story, a piece of pure emotion, and a reflection on realistic ethics. It is worth buying and reading for everyone!"

The rating of "Room" on Amazon Bookstore instantly reached four and a half stars, and almost all female readers gave it a perfect five-star rating.

The same is true for the domestic situation. Although "The Room" tells a foreign story, the love between mother and child is the commonality of human beings!

No matter what race or culture, maternal love is an emotion that everyone has experienced. The mother's status in the hearts of all children is irreplaceable.

Chinese book fans were also moved by the love between mother and son in the book, even more intensely than abroad.

In the review area of ​​Douban, the largest book review community in China, the rating of "The Room" has been pushed to the ceiling of 9.8 by readers and fans.

Messages came pouring in even more.

"I miss my mother!"

"After reading this book, I couldn't control my emotions and cried bitterly while holding my baby!"

"My son asked me why I was crying, and I told him it was because of you, because you are my mother's greatest pride in her life!"

"We will always ignore the person who loves you the most. Thank you Shanhe for reminding me that I still have a selfless love!"

"Room" won a global reputation on its first day of release!

Of course, the most important thing for Shanhe's new work is explosive sales. The first-day sales of "Room" were as expected by the media and the public, and it began its journey to sweep the world.

Huaxia's sales exceeded 300,000 copies on the first day, and including pre-sales, more than 800,000 copies were sold on that day!

It once again broke the first-day sales record of Chinese books set by "Young Man Yi".

The first-day sales volume of physical books in North America was 480,000 copies. Compared with the first-day sales volume of "Young Yi" in North America two years ago, it increased by nearly 50%!

The reason is simple. "Young Yi" has brought more fame to Shanhe, and also brought more fans and book lovers!

Including pre-sale data, the first-day sales in North America approached two million, ranking first on the North American bestseller list!

The sales boom in European countries is no less than that in North America. Two years ago, the storm caused by "Young Yiyi" in Europe was phenomenal.

Not only did it sell astonishingly, but it also won two of Europe's most prestigious and authoritative literary awards.

The name "Huaxia Qiu" has even more appeal among book fans in European countries than in North America.

Fifty-two thousand copies! It directly doubled the number of copies of "Young Yi" of that year. Coupled with the online pre-sales in the previous week, the cumulative sales data in European countries exceeded two million copies on the first day!

Let the whole of Europe lose its voice!

Asian countries are the base of Shanhe, and Shanhe has countless fans, book fans, and movie fans!

The cumulative sales of "Room" in Neon, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia unexpectedly exceeded one million copies.

The word-of-mouth is also overwhelming. Fans of Neon and Bangguo even launched an online campaign asking Shanhe to come to the two countries to hold a book signing. The momentum is not small!

The next day, all the literary fiction media in the world put the news of "Room" on the front page.

"Shanhe's new work "Room" was released yesterday and triggered a sales tornado, landing at the top of the North American bestseller list. Global first-day sales are expected to exceed five million copies!"

""The Room" moved the whole world, and many female readers put "The Room" on the altar!"

"Europe welcomes the literary "Room Day", and countless book fans flock to bookstores to buy "Room"..."

"Hua Xia Qiu made the whole of Tokyo cry..."

"Shanhe conquered the world with maternal love, and sales on the first day at home and abroad broke the ceiling again!"

That’s not all that amazes book fans around the world!

Many well-known best-selling authors were also moved by "Room" and posted their testimonials online.

JK Rowling said the most touching thing:

""Room" is a great work. I cried for it all day long. Elizabeth in the story is even my shadow, because I am also a mother and have also spent the most difficult years with my children..."

Best-selling book giant Dan Brown also lamented:

"Suspense and thriller will never be as touching as pure realistic fairy tales!"

Susan Collins, a female writer who became famous in Europe and America because of "The Hunger Games", also expressed her admiration for Shanhe on her social account:

"Qiu has a spiritual world that no one can match. He can always see more than us, and the touch he brings to me always touches the depths of my soul!"

Shanhe is naturally also concerned about the release of "Room", but his focus is not on sales, but on the reputation of readers.

After reading the reviews compiled by Xu Ahui from readers around the world and confirming that the novel had a good reputation, he did not pay too much attention to sales, but continued to devote his energy to the filming of the movie.

Following the explosive sales on the first day, the sales boom of "Room" remained at a high level in the following days.

In the 21st century, men may still control human society, but the main consumer body is definitely in the hands of women.

Touching the hearts of women is equivalent to seizing the key to best-selling!

The book "Room" not only describes a great mother, but also has an extremely delicate writing technique, a unique perspective, and pays more attention to emotional expression.

To put it simply, this is a novel about girls!

"Room" caused a word-of-mouth craze among female readers around the world.

Especially in Europe and the United States, this is when feminism is on the rise, and telling the greatness of women is politically correct!

Female political and business celebrities in Europe and the United States have praised "Room" on different occasions.

A certain former first lady of country M is now extremely active in the political arena of country M. She has just won the title of the most popular politician in the United States. She already has ambitions and plans to reach the top of the political arena of country M.

She was probably inspired by the current leader of Country M. Shan He's two novels can be said to have made a great contribution to this African-American leader's ability to finally ascend to the political stage of Country M.

The African-American demonstrations caused by "Parasite" made him prominent in the political arena. Taking advantage of the medical storm caused by "Dallas Buyers Club", his health care reform plan became famous, thus sweeping other candidates in the election. Among them is the former first lady.

The former first lady was full of praise for Shanhe's new book. From the day after the novel was released, she praised Shanhe and his new book "Room" on various occasions for several days.

"...Women around the world should give Hua Xiaqiu a separate trophy. His new work "Room" vividly tells the story of the greatness and tenacity of women. Women are born to bear more than men. We should be proud of ourselves. What men can do We can do things, and we can also do things that men can’t do!”

"Elizabeth in "The Room" has the shadow of all women. We have always been trapped in a small space by our families, children, and social prejudices. Women need a revolution to reshape our status and image, just like in "The Room" Elizabeth breaks out of the prison of male imprisonment and breaks out of the basement of the soul! "

""The Room" is one of the must-read novels for every free American woman, because everyone has their own mother, most of them will be a mother, and they will find a kind of strength in it!"

The current head of Germany also mentioned the new book Shanhe in a recent public speech.

"Women's rights need to be taken seriously, and women's equal rights laws must be implemented in Germany. Women and children are the future of a country. You should have read Hua Xiaqiu's new book "The Room". The experiences of Elizabeth and Tate's mother and son are very tragic. It is very touching. Although this is a novel, it reflects real life. This tragedy is very special, but it is a symbol of European women. We are not imprisoned in the basement by demons, but imprisoned in prejudice by social morality..."

In addition, Hollywood feminist actresses such as Cate Blanchett and Natalie Portman praised "Room" on the Internet and recommended it!

For a time, Shanhe was inexplicably turned into the biggest supporter of "feminism", and even became the male head of the "feminism" household in Europe and the United States!

This made Shan He, who was far away in China, dumbfounded. These women were so smart that they could always seize every opportunity to maximize their own interests.

Shanhe can do nothing about this, it’s up to you!

Of course, while these characters use "The Room" to gain attention and attract attention, they also promote and promote "The Room".

The influence of "Room" among women around the world has increased dramatically, and many women's and children's organizations have subsequently recommended this book to the public.

The number of female readers of "Room" surged across the world in a few days, and even started a wave of comments and messages on the Internet such as "My mother and I" and "I am a mother"!

When Shanhe took Tang Xiaoyu and the crew of "Young Man Yi" on board the flight to Venice, the first-week sales of "Room" were announced on the official website of Scholar Publishing House.

The first seven-day sales in China exceeded 1.5 million copies, and in North America it exceeded 3 million copies. European countries did not give in, and also exceeded 3 million copies, and Asian countries sold 180 copies!

Including South America, Africa, Australia and other regions, the global sales of "Room" exceeded 10 million copies in the first week!

While breaking Shanhe's first-week sales record, it also raised the sales ceiling of literary books to a new level.

It sold over 10 million copies in the first week!

This is a landmark record in the history of publishing literary novels. Not to mention literary novels, even best-selling authors have not achieved this achievement.

This heaven-defying data can be said to be unprecedented in the literary and novel circles, and it is probably unprecedented!

Media around the world made this news a front-page headline.

"Hua Xiaqiu has recreated the myth. The sales of "Room" exceeded 10 million in the first seven days. He has become a contemporary literary giant!"

"While "The Room" triggered the feminist trend in Europe and the United States, it also set off a sales storm. The threshold of tens of millions of copies was just a step for Hua Xiaqiu to cross at will!"

"The new work "The Room" by the famous Chinese writer Qiu Shanhe has once again aroused global public opinion and sales. Sales exceeded 10 million copies in the first week, opening up a new situation in global literary novels!"

This news aroused the amazement of readers in various countries, and people were shocked by Shanhe's achievements and influence.

However, it did not stir up much excitement in China. The domestic literary circle and the general public have been numbed by Shanhe's past.

Based on Shanhe's past trouble record, these are just routine operations, and it is normal for them to cause a global trend.

This is our China's nuclear-weapon-level weapon. It is really not surprising to see a few mushroom clouds!

On the other hand, Shanhe took Tang Xiaoyu to Venice and the upcoming premiere of "Youth" aroused everyone's discussion.

"Shanhe is aiming for the European Film Festival Grand Slam. I guess the title of Grand Slam is already guaranteed!"

"'Young Yi' is finally going to be released. I've been waiting for more than two years. I'm so looking forward to it. I've almost read the novel to death!"

"The sales of "Room" exceeded 10 million copies in its first week. Why is there such a big news but no news on the Internet?"

"As expected, tens of millions of copies are of little practical significance to Shanhe. The total global sales volume of "Yi Yi" has almost exceeded 100 million. Tens of millions of copies is really not a big number!"

"I'm really curious about how much global box office "The Young Ones" can do this time. Can it surpass "Gravity"?"

"It's probably difficult. "Gravity" was the first 3D live-action movie. At that time, the whole world was shocked by the 3D special effects. They all watched the movie with their mouths open. Now the 3D special effects are terrible, but it only costs more than a billion dollars. There should be no problem, there are too many original works in "Young Yi"!

"I think it is completely possible. Who is Shanhe? What he is best at is creating the impossible. A big production with a cost of 200 million US dollars. The special effects are no worse than Avatar. With the blessing of Shanhe and the original work of "Young Yi", it is hard to say. Let’s do another miracle!”

Like the general public in China, Shanhe doesn't really have much sense of accomplishment when the first-week sales of "Room" exceed 10 million.

On the contrary, I am somewhat emotional and excited about my second trip to the Venice Film Festival.

Looking at the panoramic view of Venice Island from the plane, he recalled his first Venice Film Festival experience.

Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye. At that time, he had just graduated from film school and was still a rookie director. "Moon" was his first step into the international film market.

Venice is also one of the blessed places for Shan He. Here, he shocked the world for the first time with an atypical science fiction film.

From then on, the journey of conquering the world with movies began!

"Brother Shanhe, Venice is so beautiful!"

Tang Xiaoyu's excited exclamation woke up the mountains and rivers in his memories.

"It's not bad! This was once the center of Europe, and its cultural landscape is even more famous. I'll take you for a walk in two days!"

"okay!"

Tang Xiaoyu participated in the film festival for the first time, and his excitement and anticipation were clearly visible.

"Brother Shanhe, do you think "Young Boys" will win an award in Venice this time? I read on the Internet that we are already guaranteed the Golden Lion Award!"

"It's possible, but it's not as exaggerated as what is said online!"

Shan He smiled and teased Tang Xiaoyu,

"If I win the Golden Lion, your Venice Best Actor Award will probably be lost!"

"If there's no drama, there's no drama. Anyway, I'm just following you to gain experience. I don't think my acting is that good!"

"Haha... It's good to have this mentality. Don't have too high expectations for yourself. Being low-key and doing things in a high-key way is the right way!"

Shanhe smiled and patted Tang Xiaoyu's shoulder and continued to ask,

"I heard that you boy has turned down all the invitations to Hollywood blockbusters. You, Sister Yang Liu, said it was such a pity. Tell me what you think?"

"hehe…"

Tang Xiaoyu touched his head and responded sarcastically,

"I didn't like the roles they assigned me. They were all supporting roles, not to mention not positive roles. Besides, neither my mother nor I liked those scripts. My mother said I was too young and had enough limelight. It’s too much, it’s time to settle down, I accepted her suggestion!”

Shanhe nodded when he heard this. He agreed more with Tang Xiaoyu's choice. Tang Xiaoyu was the absolute leading actor in "Young Man Yi". With his current fame, there was no need to be a stepping stone for others for the immediate benefit.

"The Hunger Games" is basically a one-man show for the female protagonist. Not to mention the supporting role, the male protagonist is just a foil.

The two projects "Divergent" and "Maze Runner" have no impression at all in Shanhe's memory. It is estimated that either the project failed midway, or it was scrapped in the end.

In addition, Tang Shuqing was right. Tang Xiaoyu was too young. Even though he was more mature than his peers, he still lacked enough resistance to the various temptations in Hollywood Vanity Fair.

Staying in China to study and grow up with peers and settle down for a period of time is the best way.

"I support you! Xiaoyu, after "Yi Yi" is released, you will face more flattery and praise. Actors must have the ability to distinguish and resist. Don't be blown away and lose your original intention and enterprising spirit!"

"I know!"

Tang Xiaoyu looked at the mountains and rivers and replied,

"Master Yu told me about your middle school days, so I will take you as a role model anyway. You are already so famous, and "Room" sold so well, but you and your sister-in-law are still working together on the set!"

"Haha...you're pretty good at flattering me, I like it!"

"Brother Shanhe, why don't you bring the little bear with you this time? He wants to come with us!"

"Take him with you? Then we can't do anything. I'm afraid of being tormented by him!"

"hehe…"
