Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 705 Wells Group (third update)
In the Chinese version of "Zero and One", "Harry Potter" has been updated for more than two years. In fact, the second volume has been updated, and the third volume has started to be updated.

The English version is a bit slower, but the first book is almost as good.

So this time "Harry Potter" is released as a single book, it doesn't have much impact on those readers of "Zero and One", unless some people want to buy a copy to take back as a souvenir, and they have read all the stories in it.

But for non-English-speaking people and people who don't usually read magazines, they have been waiting for this day for a long time.

There are some people who have always heard that "Harry Potter" is very interesting, but they don't want to wait for an update one by one, and they don't have the habit of reading magazines, so they have never read this book.

It's even worse for readers in non-English-speaking areas. They want to read it, but the key is that they can't see it, unless they learn Chinese or English.But even if they are willing to learn a language for this book, the translation may come out before they learn it well.

No, amidst their long-awaited calls, the first part of "Harry Potter" finally came out.

Because of sufficient preparation time, "Harry Potter" is also the work with the most language versions released simultaneously in the world among all Zhang Zhong's books. This time, a total of 52 language versions have been released simultaneously.

That is to say, a writer of Zhang Zhong's level dared to do this. Some of the languages ​​released this time have a population of only a little over 1000 million.

Only 1000 million people use this language, and among these 1000 million people, how many are literate and how many are reading books?

It is basically impossible to obtain high sales in this kind of place, and it is already very scary to sell tens of thousands of copies.

Therefore, the release of so many languages ​​together is not only for the sake of sales, but also for Zhang Zhong's influence to penetrate all over the world.

However, the release of so many languages ​​at the same time has an impact on sales. "Harry Potter" finally lived up to expectations and set a new record for Zhang Zhong. It sold 300 million copies on the first day, breaking the previous "Sophie's World". " set a first-day sales record of 100 million copies, becoming a new world record.

At the same time, the 300 million copies also fueled another new record for Zhang Zhong. The single-day sales of all Zhang Zhong's books reached 700 million copies, breaking the previous record of 400 million copies set by him.

This record can be broken, on the one hand, because of the help of "Harry Potter", on the other hand, it is also because "A Clockwork Girl" has just been released, and the residual warmth is still there.

The main reason why Zhang Zhong was able to sell 400 million books a day was the bundled sales of volumes 1 and 700 of "Three-Body Problem". At that time, the sales volume of "Three-Body Problem [-]" also reached [-] million , and during that time, Zhang Zhong published books relatively quickly, and many books were released within a short time, so sales did not drop too much.

However, compared with then, there are more books under Zhang Chong's name, and with the addition of movies, the overall sales growth is also expected.

As for the other record - the total sales of personal works need not be mentioned, because this record was originally Zhang Zhong's, as long as no one surpasses this record in a day, then every time Zhang Zhong sells an additional book, it is equivalent to breaking the record .

According to statistics, Zhang Zhong's total sales volume has exceeded 20 billion, and it may not be long before it will reach twice that of No.2.

Now Linde's total book sales volume is 26 billion, as long as Zhang Zhong's sales volume reaches [-] billion, he can complete a trap for Linde.

As for the fact that Zhang Zhong's book sales reached 26 billion, no one doubted it.

Even if Zhang Zhong is now closing his pen, the books he wrote before will make his sales reach this figure.This year, the speed of Zhang republishing books has slowed down significantly, but the growth rate of his total book sales has not slowed down at all.

Not only because there are more and more books, but also because Zhang Zhong's works have begun to be filmed in the past two years. Almost every film and television work comes out, and the sales of the corresponding works will also skyrocket.

……

"Dean, do you have time?"

As soon as Zhang Zhong took Peng Peng home, he received a call from Vice President Wen Han.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Zhong covered the microphone and said to Pengpeng, "Go back to your room first."

Seeing his father on the phone, Pengpeng nodded silently, and then went to the room.

"People from the Wells Group in the United States just called me and said that they intend to sponsor our college." Wen Han said.

"Wales Group? What's its origin?" Zhang Zhong asked.

"The Wells Group started as a toy dealer, and later entered the cable, car auction, and newspaper industries. It is one of the top twenty private companies in the United States." Wen Han briefly introduced the Wells Group to Zhang Zhong.

Zhang Zhong didn't have much impression of this company, he thought for a while and asked, "Did you say why you want to sponsor our academy?"

"I didn't say anything specifically. I made an appointment with the other party to meet this weekend, and it's in the academy."

Zhang nodded, "That's fine, I'll go there on weekends to see what the other party means."

"OK, all right."

After hanging up Wen Han's phone, Zhang Zhong checked the information of Wells Group online.

After looking around, I didn't find anything special, and I didn't find any connection between the other party and myself or Shizhong College.

But when he was about to close the webpage, a name came into his field of vision - Literary News.

Zhang Zhong raised his eyebrows, "Literary News" is actually an industry under the Wells Group.

He suddenly remembered what Yang Xiao said before. Yang Xiao said that "Literary News" is his family's property. So, this Wells Group belongs to Yang Xiao's family?
In this way, the connection came out. It seems that the Wells Group's sponsorship of Shizhong College must be because of Yang Xiao.

When this guy visited the Juwang Exhibition Hall before, he asked Zhang Zhong whether the Juwang Exhibition Hall would accept sponsorship. At that time, Zhang Zhong told him that the Juwang Exhibition Hall was a private property and would not accept sponsorship. middle school.

Zhang Chong also couldn't figure out why this guy had to send the money out.In fact, Shizhong College is not short of funds now. After all, it had a wave of sponsorship from the Lide Group before. Although the college is small now, it has all the internal organs.

There are only so many people in the college now, and the existing facilities and buildings are completely sufficient.

However, Zhang Zhong would not refuse the sponsorship offered to him directly. He still decided to talk to the other party first and see the specific situation before making a decision.
