Chapter 190 Chapter 176 "The Three-Body Problem", "Journey to the West", and "Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao" are on sale!
In the next few days, Jiang Wang has been contacting various parties to promote the simultaneous release of "Those Years" in the three countries of Tyrande, Peninsula, and Neon.

Tianying Group has already entered the market. They are also happy to see "Those Years" go overseas and are willing to be one of the promoters.

With their participation, Jiang Wang quickly contacted the film distribution agencies of the three countries. Next, he and the expatriate personnel of Tianying and Shenhua will go to these countries in person to negotiate face to face to ensure that "Those Years" can successfully enter the film markets of the three countries of Tyrande, Peninsula, and Neon.

At the same time, Cheng Cheng also published "The Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao", "The Three-Body Problem - Part One" and "Journey to the West".

Although there was no deliberate promotion, Cheng Cheng is a top star. Even eating a pancake can make it to the hot search list, not to mention that he released three books in one go.

Coupled with the success of "The Little Prince", these three books are even more highly anticipated.

Netizens really believed that Cheng Cheng did not appear on "The Singer" not to shirk responsibility, but because he was really busy, and what he did was much more important than "The Singer".

Xiangjiang TV thought their "Singer" program was a bomb, but then Cheng Cheng dropped a bigger one.

How can the value of the entertainment industry compare to that of the literary circle?

However, because the subject matter of these three books is too different from that of "The Little Prince", the market response was cold.

Many readers who went in with the same expectations as for "The Little Prince" were a little disappointed.

The first is "Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao", which is a fairy tale book that is easy to understand, but the target audience is not them at all, but primary school students.

"Journey to the West" is a famous novel, which is full of rare characters and classical Chinese, which makes people feel overwhelmed when reading it.

Although "The Three-Body Problem" is a popular novel suitable for most people, the science fiction genre is still relatively niche in China.

And those who have read "The Three-Body Problem" know that "The Three-Body Problem One" is, in principle, not as good as the latter two, and the character development is not as good as the latter two. From the perspective of the completeness of the story, the story of "The Three-Body Problem One" is incomplete. If there is no "The Three-Body Problem Two", then "The Three-Body Problem One" would be a eunuch story. However, "The Three-Body Problem Two" and "The Three-Body Problem Three" are both independent chapters with complete plots.

Precisely because the plot of "The Three-Body Problem" 1 is incomplete, it is impossible to tell what theme the book is trying to show. It seems to mention some of every field, but nothing can reach the intensity that runs through the entire book.

The Three-Body Problem is considered hard science fiction, a term that also originated from The Three-Body Problem: Part Two.

In the previous life, the "Three-Body" series became popular only after Liu Cixin wrote the third part, Death's End.

Therefore, it is understandable that today’s readers do not find “The Three-Body Problem” very amazing after reading it.

"I feel like all three of Cheng Cheng's books are just average. What do you think? Only Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao is interesting."

"The main reason is that the scope is too wide, it's science fiction, mythology, and fairy tales. I didn't have that much money, so I bought a copy of Journey to the West, and then I found out I was cheated. 'All living things look up to the Supreme Benevolence, and all things are created for good. If you want to know the merits of creation, you must read Journey to the West.' I just want to ask, can you understand what this sentence means? I feel like I'm being bullied for not completing my nine years of compulsory education."

"The whole article is just a pile of words, I don't know what it is talking about, it's disappointing."

"It seems to be telling a story about a monkey."

"Monkey? Is the monkey the protagonist?"

"There are also monks, monsters, Buddhists and the like."

"What's there to see in monkeys?"

There are Taoism and Buddhism in this world. This world is on the same track as the previous life before the Qin Dynasty, with Yao, Shun, Yu, Xia, Shang, Zhou, Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period, and various schools of thought. But starting from the Qin Dynasty, things started to go astray.

First of all, in this time and space, the successor to the Qin Dynasty was not Hu Hai, but Fusu.

Under Fusu's rule, the Qin Dynasty ushered in unprecedented prosperity and glory. With his outstanding wisdom and benevolent rule, he led the Qin Empire into a glorious era.

The Qin Dynasty experienced a glorious period of 328 years, and then entered the Kang Dynasty, followed by the Han, Wei, Ping, Tang, Xian, Liang, and Zhou dynasties.

Therefore, precisely because there is no "Journey to the West" and no mythological legends with monkeys as the protagonists, the status of monkeys is much lower than in the previous life.

In the eyes of people in this world, having a monkey as the protagonist is simply hilarious.

"Monkeys are simply the most hateful creatures. When I see a monkey, I want to skin it, pull out its tendons, and beat it to death."

"I think Cheng Cheng wrote these three books just for fun, and he didn't expect them to sell well."

"It's clear from the perspective of publicity and promotion. If he had confidence, why wouldn't he have launched an overwhelming marketing campaign?"

"Cheng Cheng has a good sense of self-esteem, but his fans don't. Some of them have already started to exaggerate. Now that Cheng Cheng is becoming more and more popular, his fan base is becoming more and more mixed. The former haters were all sensible, but now Cheng Cheng has a lot of fangirls who like him, and things have gotten really chaotic."

"I still like The Little Prince. The writing is simple and easy to understand, but you will be very moved after reading it. Everyone has their own understanding."

"I bought The Three-Body Problem, and after reading two chapters I couldn't believe it was written by Cheng Cheng. The writing style is so naive, and every character has a strong stereotype."

"'Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao' is also very white."

"'Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao' is a fairy tale, so it's reasonable to say it's wrong. But 'The Three-Body Problem' is different. It's a hard science fiction, and it's unwatchable if it's wrong."

"Indeed, although the Little Prince is also very white, his writing is refined and philosophical, which is completely different."

“I don’t understand what Cheng Cheng is trying to do. Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao and The Three-Body Problem are too bland to watch, and Journey to the West is too obscure to watch. Maybe we are not the target audience.”

I don't know about "The Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao", but the reason why "The Three-Body Problem" was not popular in the early stage is indeed related to the writing style. Of course, some people say it is fair, while others say it is not. It depends on one's opinion.

The cold reception of "Journey to the West" is easy to understand, as there is indeed a lack of reading environment for classical Chinese literature at present.

"It seems that it really isn't going to work," Lin Xiang muttered to himself.

He is the president of Shinhwa Publishing. He originally proposed to Cheng Cheng that the three books should be released in turns so that the promotion and marketing would have a focus. However, Cheng Cheng insisted on releasing them at the same time. He only has the right to make suggestions, not the decision-making power, and can only do as Cheng Cheng wishes.

Now, looking at the comments online, he showed an expression that said, "As expected, I should have insisted on my own opinion in the first place."

the other side.

Xia Ming felt somewhat gloating.

When Cheng Cheng released "The Little Prince" and it became a hit on the entire Internet, he felt that if Cheng Cheng could write a book, he might not be unable to write one.

Although he didn't write a book, there was no way to prove that he couldn't write a book? Maybe he had always had this talent, but he had never discovered it? Maybe he was just delayed by the career of a star. So, he decided to write a book at that time, and to compete with Cheng Cheng.

Cheng Cheng created a fairy tale, and he created a myth.

Cheng Cheng’s protagonist is a human being;

However, he had been in seclusion for several days, and apart from coming up with the idea that the protagonist was a cat demon, he couldn't come up with a single word.

Now seeing Cheng Cheng taking over from him and writing a mythological novel with non-human protagonists, which was not well received in the market, he immediately laughed out loud:

Cheng Cheng, Cheng Cheng, you will fail one day too~
-

In Cheng Cheng’s comment section, many people who did not buy the book came to the team building just because they saw the jokes online that made fun of Cheng Cheng.

Of course, they may not have any malicious intentions, they just think it's fun and want to have some entertainment.

"Brother Frog, let's just focus on making movies and songs. The Little Prince is not that easy to copy."

"That's right! There are only three movies this year, that's not enough!"

"Let me do the math. You shoot a movie in ten days, and ten days for editing and post-production, so twenty days is enough for one movie. I allow you to take ten days off a month, so can you shoot twelve movies a year? Where did the other nine go?"

"I don't want you to be tired, but I don't want you to be idle either."

"With the time you put into writing these three books, you could have started two more shows and made two more movies."

"Listen to the advice and eat your fill. Let's stop doing science fiction and mythology, okay? Let's get back to our roots. We haven't been out in business for a long time."

"I know you are really busy, so you can't appear in "The Singer", but these three novels are really not up to standard. How about this, you make more movies and TV series to make up for my broken heart."

"This is the first time Frog has failed, hahaha. I just laughed at him mercilessly."

"There are still many bad people in the world~"

"Brother Frog, tell the truth to the brothers, can you understand the Journey to the West you wrote?"

Cheng Cheng responded one by one:
"No, I want to write a novel."

"You didn't let me go either."

"Failure? Who said failure?"

"The first day before I kill you."

"I won't make any more movies in the future."

"I don't want to bother with you, you funny fat woman."

"Your stool is unformed!"

"You married your cousin."

"You will eventually be brought to justice."

"Go to the hospital and ask the doctor for advice."

"You wear ten rings on your fingers."

"Try your shit."

“Your latest selfie has been made into an emoji!”

“You feel like you’ve just been born.”

"Have you lost your wisdom?"

Cheng Cheng’s reply made netizens laugh like crazy, and soon, the entry #Cheng Cheng angrily criticizes black fans# became a hot search.

“I laughed hahahaha.”

"The only top public relations person in the domestic entertainment industry is Cheng Cheng."

"Or or or or or, what kind of vicious curse is 'you marry your cousin'? I'm dying of laughter!!!"

"You go to the hospital and ask the doctor what's good about you. You wear ten rings on your hands. Hahahahahahahaha, I don't understand what you mean, but it feels like a very dirty insult."

"You feel like you were just born, your mental state is so beautiful!"

"Hahahaha, Cheng Cheng is probably used to having smooth sailing. This first defeat really broke his defense. He's so stubborn~"

"Cheng Cheng argued with fans all night again. Hahaha. In order to avoid being seen as a coward, he didn't dare to sleep until 5am."

"I've learned another curse word. Your stool is unformed."

"23333 Doesn't anyone think he has a rich vocabulary?"

"I was laughed at like a duck when I passed by."

The whole network was laughing and making fun of Cheng Cheng's beautiful mental state. "Journey to the West", "Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao" and "The Three-Body Problem" were also regarded as Cheng Cheng's black history and were included in various jokes.

But two days later, when someone walked into the bookstore and wanted to see how bad these three books were, the bookstore owner suddenly told him that they were out of stock.

And it’s not just one book that’s out of stock, but all three books are out of stock!

Finally someone noticed something was wrong.

What’s going on? Didn’t they say that these three books were not well written?
Why is it still out of stock?
