Chapter 280 Terrifying Outsider Series
"Auntie, are you not kidding? Kede's book is for sale today?" Su Shichen felt unbelievable about the news coming from Wang Ni.
"The Outsider. The True Outsider was published at Qili Publishing House, and now the publishing house has issued an announcement an hour ago."
Qili Publishing House is one of the top publishers in China. It is natural to be able to win this book by Cod, but it is strange that before Thomson Cod's "The Outsider, the Real Outsider" was released, there was no news at all.
Suddenly, news came that it was published, and the book announcement was usually published three days ago, and this one was only an hour.
"Why are you rushing like this? Don't you promote it well?" Su Shichen asked.
"One of the things seems to be because of Cod's request, did this."
Kod asked, it seems that this foreigner has a lot of confidence.
"As for another reason, the popularity of the current quarrel in the fantasy novels is not to be pretentious and propaganda." Wang Ni saw the matter thoroughly.
"Okay, thank you aunt, I'll go and have a look." Hang up the phone and went out to buy books.
Although Kede's main battlefield is in Europe and the United States, at least it has the foundation of the previous thirty years and eleven books. With that gimmick, the bookstores are still crowded as soon as the bookstores were launched. Of course, it is not as good as the scene when Su Shichen's "The Matrix" was released in China. However, it takes a lot of effort to buy a book. It took a lot of effort to squeeze into the crowd and it took a lot of effort to buy it.
I don’t know if it was deliberately, the book “External Series. The Real Outsider” is actually sold worldwide in both the English and Chinese versions.
Knowing yourself and your enemy will win every battle. I heard Kod say that this last movie will reveal a big secret. I have to see if this is just to stimulate sales, or is it true. This is why Su Shichen will come to buy it in a hurry.
If the former is just to stimulate sales, it is no big deal. But if the latter is the latter, the difficulty of defeating Kod can be said to have increased again.
Su Shichen can be said to be one of the first people to buy the book "External. The Real Outsider". He took him home and prepared to study it thoroughly.
Although Ke De may have considered the English translation into Chinese when he was writing, he was surprised by his cultural background. Su Shichen felt very awkward when he saw a few chapters of the Chinese version and couldn't read it anymore, so he closed the book with a bang.
Of course, this is not to say that this Chinese version of "The Outsider. The Real Outsider" is difficult to see, but at the same time, it seems a bit untolerant for a person who is very attentive and dedicated to research thoroughly.
"To be honest, this Chinese version is definitely a translator. It can still be called the pinnacle of Chinese translation. However, to understand Kod's true strength, it is better to look at the original one."
The original English version cannot be bought in China, so you can only order it online. Su Shichen's English level in his previous life was definitely not allowed to read the original English version. However, he was in his three years of high school in this life, and now he has no problem reading the original English novels.
The original English version is 20% more expensive than the Chinese version. After ordering, the books will take three days to deliver. I can't even be anxious. Su Shichen has another new job and pays attention to the data of the book "External. The Real Outsider".
There is no first in literature, and no second in martial arts. This sentence means that martial arts can be divided into second, but articles cannot be made. Because everyone’s hobbies are different, this is true.
However, the world with prosperous culture supports the confrontation very much, just like the previous science fiction confrontation between Su Shichen and Yuanju, and the outcome is judged from the three aspects of sales, reputation, and influence.
Sales volume is a very important part, so we naturally need to pay attention to it.
Although "The Outsider. The Real Outsider" did not have much publicity, it was already very popular on the first day of its launch.
The sales volume on the first day exceeded 5 million copies, and the total sales volume in three days exceeded 5 million!
Among the works translated by foreign countries, this record is already very good, and it can even rank among the top ten, and it is the best-selling foreign book this year.
Of course, this record in China is nothing to Su Shichen and Chu Xing. Su Shichen's "The Matrix i Hacker Mission" once created a day and fully achieved the total data of "The Outsider. The Real Outsider" in three days. Therefore, if you rely solely on your grades, it is not pressure at all, but the key is the total sales.
In the whole of Europe and the United States, "The Real Outsider" has sold more than 8.6 million copies on the first day. Simply put, Europe and the United States plus China, the sales on the first day exceeded 10 million copies. This is not considered an island country, South Korea and other countries.
With more than 10 million copies, even if Su Shichen wrote a masterpiece, it would not be possible to reach this level, because Su Shichen's distribution channel has not been opened at all. Even if the island country is added, the sales volume of a book on the first day cannot reach more than 10 million copies in the two markets of the island country and China.
It was in these three days that the global sales of "The Real Outsider" actually exceeded more than 25 million copies, and it directly dropped to the top of the US hot-selling books list, which was unstoppable!
This is more than 25 million copies. Don’t you see that many authors’ cumulative sales of books in their lifetime are almost less than 25 million copies. Let’s put it this way if an author’s cumulative sales of books exceeds 10 million copies, he can be called a top writer.
Su Shichen has written a lot of books, and the influence of books is quite large, but the cumulative sales are only 40 to 50 million copies. However, in just three days, it is more than half of them, and it is estimated that it will take less than two weeks to completely surpass them. This is really a gap.
All the popularity of "The Outsider Series" over the past 30 years has exploded in the last book.
The United States is full of praise—
"The sincere work of Mr. Thomson Coder, the end of the "External Series" cannot be missed."
"It seems that I heard of a Western fantasy confrontation, but after I saw the quality of the book "External. True Outsider". I think the result has come out. Even if the opponent is Mit Chu, the winner of the Hugo Award, what do you say about su, who is that?" - "Today's America"
"The True Outsider" makes the Outsider Continent more exciting and perfect. Don't joke about surpassing the Outsider Continent in [his world]!" - "The Great Events of the United States"
Well, the US has already decided the win or loss of the confrontation.
It was when Kod's book was sold so much that Su Shichen got the original English version.
I read the whole story very carefully. Compared with the previous eleven works, "The Real Outsider" is heavier in its pen tip. This is also expected. Looking at Ke De's works, each book has made considerable progress compared to the previous one.
So this is not surprising Su Shichen, but what surprised him was the turning point in the plot.
The biggest turning point in the entire Outer Continent that Ke De mentioned was true. The three people who started to travel to the Outer Continent thought that he had traveled to another world, but in fact, it was not the case. They were just traveling to the future, not to another world.
Right! That's right, this place called the Outer Continent is the earth. It's just that in 2046, a group of people from another world came from another world. Because they know how to fight qi and magic, people are not opponents if they use thermal weapons or even nuclear bombs. Soon the entire earth fell into the hands of people from another world.
The gap between the earth and the magical world in which this tribe lives in the other world is naturally very large, so they transformed the earth into their original world. Similarly, the original earthlings have been assimilated and slaved by the other world people for hundreds of years.
It is this tribe who knows that they are from other worlds, so this is the origin of the name of the Outsider Continent.
When he saw this, Su Shichen could be said to have been conquered by Ke De's imagination. No wonder he saw some products similar to Earth technology appearing when he introduced the outsider continent. When Su Shichen saw it, he felt a little awkward. He thought it was a flaw in writing, but he did not expect that this was the foreshadowing of the later turning point, which means that the flaws turned into highlights. Even top writers rarely possess this strength.
"The name "The True Outsider" is well chosen. It turns out that the three of them are not so-called outsiders, and the real outsiders can be said to be everyone in this outsider continent except them."
The next content is the resistance that the three earthlings who spanned time saw this after they knew about this. Because they each could be said to have monopolize the power, they quickly turned the entire foreign continent upside down. However, at the time of the **, the whole book came to an abrupt end, and ending in the ** is undoubtedly the best choice.
"Kod's strength is really not something to cover." After reading the whole book, Su Shichen felt that he was wearing a thick iron chain coat, and he was a little breathless when he was wearing this coat.
"Huhuhu..." After a deep breath of exhaust gas, Su Shichen felt such great pressure for the first time. Not only sales, but also the excitement was ashamed.
But that's the case, it can be said that Su Shichen's fighting spirit has further inspired. If he defeated a classic work, wouldn't it give people a better feeling?
"Come on, the Outsider Continent is wonderful, but World of Warcraft is even more exciting, you must have confidence."
It is precisely for this reason that Su Shichen worked even harder.
The sensation caused by "The Outsider. The Real Outsider" is global. At the same time, the release of this book instantly made the Outsider mainland called him the fourth place [His World], and according to the current trend, it is like squeezing into the top three!
In other words, to surpass this foreign continent, you not only need to enter the top three of [his world], but now it is possible to get second and first to achieve this goal.
Five days later, eight days after Ke De published the book, Chu Xing also announced the completion of the new book, and the new book - "Song of the Stars" will be released!
"Song of the Stars" of course inherits Chu Xing's usual level, with a wild imagination, a novel world view setting, and a series of plots.
"Song of the Stars" and "The Real Outsider" have begun to compete. Like Ke De, Chu Xing's novel is also sold all over the world in both English and Chinese versions.
Chu Xing is also a Western fantasy master who has won the Hugo Award for Lifetime Achievement. He is also prestigious across the country. Even if Europe and the United States do not have the popularity of Kod, there is no shortage of distribution channels.
This showdown that was hyped as a Chinese, Western and Western fantasy novel has begun now!!
Sales, reputation, influence!
As one of the three protagonists of this confrontation, Su Shichen seemed to ignore his affairs at all. At this time, he ran to school to register...
Chapter completed!
