Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 222 Market Appeal

When the man sat up, Zhang Zhong felt familiar, and after looking at it for a while, he finally recognized who it was.

Although he had only met him once, Zhang Zhong still remembered Zhao Re's face. If it wasn't for his disheveled hair and haggard face, Zhang Zhong would have thought of his name at the first sight.

Why is he here?

It doesn't look like he's here for a trip.

"Old Tan, serve a pot of Mao Feng." Zhao Nuo lectured the young people, and then waved to the boss behind the counter.

The boss nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make it for you right away."

Listening to their conversation, those who didn't know the inside story thought that Zhao Nuo was a local, otherwise it would be impossible to get so acquainted with the owner of this teahouse.

Of course Zhang Zhong knew that Zhao Nuan was not a local, because Zhao Nuan was from Modu, but maybe the boss was his relative.

After thinking about it, Zhang Zhong still stood up and walked towards Zhao Nuan.

"Mr. Zhao, don't come here without any problems."

Zhao Re just woke up, still a little dazed, heard Zhang Zhong's words, and looked at him in a daze.

The first thing that catches the eye is a pair of big sunglasses, making it difficult to see the exact appearance, but Zhao Re still recognizes who is in front of him.

But if he recognized it, he still couldn't believe it.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhang Zhong thought he was wearing sunglasses and he didn't recognize him, so he took off the sunglasses and said with a smile, "It's me, Zhang Zhong."

After speaking, he put the sunglasses back on.

"Oh, Zhang Zhong, sit down, sit down." Zhao Nuo hurriedly stepped aside.

Zhang Chong sat down with a smile, pointed to his sunglasses and said, "I have to, please forgive me."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's understandable."

"Ms. Zhao is here to play?" Zhang Zhong asked.

"No."

"Is that to visit relatives?"

"No." Zhao Nuo still shook his head, then stared at Zhang Zhong with burning eyes, "I'm here to wait for you."

"wait for me?"

Zhang Zhong did not expect such an answer.

He couldn't figure it out, how did Zhao Re know that he came to Chadong?

"Actually, I didn't expect to be able to wait for you, so I was surprised to see you. I have been in Chadong for many days, and I spend most of my time in the teahouse. When I have nothing to do, I go out for a walk."

Zhao Nuo's cloudy eyes gradually became clear.

He came to Chadong a few days ago, just wanting to see where Cuicui lives.

But because he has turned day and night upside down for a long time, he is groggy all day long. He wants to sleep during the day and wants to drink at night.

But when he came to Chadong, he had decided not to drink in the future, so he soaked in the teahouse every day, and made a pot of tea when he woke up.

He did have the idea of ​​​​waiting for tension, but reason told him that it is basically impossible to wait for tension here.

But who knew that God would trick people, he just woke up and saw Zhang Zhong standing in front of him alive.

He came to Chadong because of "Border Town", and there is nothing difficult to say about all this, so he confessed to Zhang Zhong that he was waiting for him.

Zhang Chong also noticed that Zhao Nuan's state was a little different from the last time he saw him. He didn't know what happened to Zhao Nuan, but somehow he felt that it had something to do with him and "Border Town".

"Mr. Zhao, what do you want to tell me?"

"I—" Zhao Re stopped talking, then shook his head and said, "It was there before, but it's gone now. I've already figured out those things."

Zhang Chong didn't know what he figured out, but Zhang Chong knew Zhao Nuan's past, so Zhang Zhong was sincerely happy about his change, "The last time Mr. Zhuang Yu talked about you with me, his tone was full of regret, But I am glad to see you this time. A person can be defeated, but he cannot be defeated. At least for now, it seems that you have not fallen."

"A person can be defeated, but he can't be knocked down." Zhao Re muttered to himself, then shook his head and said, "It's not that I didn't fall, it's just that I want to get back up now."

At this time, the boss came over with a teapot, "Xiao Zhao, your tea. Talk to this gentleman, haven't you been waiting for someone from Jiangyang?"

"Well, we're chatting, Lao Tan, go get busy."

After Lao Tan left, Zhao Re pointed to the teapot and said, "I only drink tea now."

As he spoke, he poured another cup of tea for Zhang Zhong.

Zhang Zhong smiled knowingly, picked up his teacup and said, "Congratulations."

"Thank you."

……

After coming out of the teahouse, Hu Huifang asked Zhang Zhong curiously, "Who was that just now? I see you chatted with him for a long time."

"Zhao Re is also a writer." Zhang Zhong said.

"Zhao Nue?" Hu Huifang shook her head, "I don't have any impression."

"He wrote "The Princes of Chaos"."

Hu Huifang thought of it all at once, "Oh, it's him, that genius boy."

Zhang Xingjun seldom pays attention to literature, and has never heard of "The Princes of Chaos", so he asked, "What kind of genius boy?"

Hu Huifang explained to him, "When he was 17 years old, he wrote a book called "The Princes of Chaos". Come to think of it, ten years have passed.”

She sighed again, "Life's fortunes are unpredictable. Who would have thought that a sensational young genius would end up in such a situation more than ten years ago."

……

After two days of fermentation, the popularity of "Snowman" has reached a peak.

After the end of May 3, Liang Yong's new book "Flying Snow 3" could barely compete with "Snowman" in sales, but on the second day, the sales of "Snowman" surpassed "Flying Snow [-]" by a large margin.

It was an evenly matched battle that everyone was optimistic about, but it took only two days to decide the winner. Whether it is in terms of sales or word of mouth, "Flying Snow 3" has already been left behind by a large margin.

And this May new book war, in addition to "Snowman", the market performance of Zhang Zhong's other new book "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" also surprised everyone.

As a traditional novel with low commercial value, thanks to Zhang Zhong's strong market appeal, the sales volume has surpassed Zhuo Wen's "Water Country and Wilderness", and it is close to "Flying Snow 3".

And after the sales came out the next day, many professional organizations have already predicted that the sales of "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" will surpass that of "Flying Snow 3", and this time will probably not exceed one year, which means that it is very likely that it will be released this year. On the new book sales list, "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" will rank above "Flying Snow 3".

"This May, the nerves of fans of Chinese detective novels were stirred up by a book. The ordinary snowman turned into an ominous omen, and it will make people sleepless when the ice and snow melt. It is a pity that this book It was not released in winter, otherwise the horror atmosphere in it will be more chilling because of the snow-covered winter. Of course, we should also be thankful, because there is also the soft sunshine in May that can make us feel a little after reading "The Snowman". warmth……"
