Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 426 The ocean of knowledge is waiting for his arrival
"I wonder if Mr. Wu Fei, the founder of Huaxia Writers Rich List, can make up for my manuscript tax?"

After the Huaxia Writers Rich List came out, a post ignited the whispers. This post was not posted by Zhang Chong, but Yu Dongyu, the little cocklebur.

When Yu Dongyu saw this list, he was also baffled. How come he has an annual income of nearly [-] million, which is not scientific at all.

In fact, the annual list is unreasonable, but even if it was unreasonable before, it was within the normal range.

Since this list was made, Yu Dongyu has been a frequent visitor on this list and has reached the top three times.

He didn't produce a work the year before last, so he wasn't on the list last year, but on the list the year before last, it was marked that his income was 500 million, but in fact his income had reached more than 5000 million the year before last.

In the past, it was considered less, but this year it is not only considered too much, but also so much more.

According to Yu Dongyu's own estimate, his income last year was probably less than [-] million yuan.

And the reason why he posted this news is, on the one hand, to ridicule, and on the other hand, he didn't want people to miscalculate his income level. Now that there are so many pink eye diseases, many people must be jealous.

At the same time, Yu Dongyu would also like to thank Zhang Zhong. After all, with Zhang Zhong's 23 billion hanging on his head, his pressure will be much less.

23 billion, I don't know if his number has water. If it is true, it would be too scary.

You know, last year in the list of the world's richest writers released by the United States, the fantasy master Linde's annual income was only [-] million U.S. dollars. According to this figure, there is a high probability that Zhang Zhong will leave Linde behind this year. Yes, and it is the kind that is thrown far away.

As soon as Yu Dongyu's whisper came out, many netizens who were discussing the author's income before laughed.

[Let me just say, this list must be full of water, how could it be so high. 】

[Yeah, if you really want to be this tall, Zhang Zhong will be able to win the global championship this year. 】

[Actually, it's not surprising to win the global championship, after all, so many books were published last year. 】

[I calculated that Zhang Zhong's sales of physical books and electronic editions combined should be between 15 billion and 20 billion. 】

【Last year? 】

[Well, last year. 】

[I'm going, so many?That's about the same as the numbers on the list. 】

[Now I don't know if this income includes the income of Zhang Zhong's company. You must know that "Zero and One" magazine is also his, and Zhao Re is also his company. 】

[The statistical scope of the rich list of writers only includes the royalties of writers, and it has nothing to do with other incomes. Otherwise, wouldn’t the richest man who wrote a book casually be number one on the rich list of writers? 】

[Do you think Zhang Zhong can enter the China Rich List this year?After all, these incomes are also included in the rich list. 】

[If you just make a list of annual income, it is estimated that you can enter the top 500, but the rich list generally accumulates wealth, and Zhang Zhong can't even make it to 54. Last year's top [-] rich list last year, Yijia Software's Wang Yijia's wealth is [-] [-] million. 】

[That's coming soon, won't it be stable in two or three years? 】

[Wait, if this year has the same publishing speed as last year, and the quality can be guaranteed, it is estimated that Zhang Zhong's annual income will double, and it may be more than doubled. 】

【How do you say this? 】

[There are several reasons. First, after more than a year of popularity accumulation, domestic and overseas markets have basically opened up. Second, while new books make money, old books will not fall behind, but the sales volume is relatively small. The third, and the most The key one, as far as I know, there will be three film and television dramas on the line this year, the most recent is Wen Jinjiang's "Ten Men", if these three film and television dramas can be popular, the original will definitely be popular, and it will really be popular But it's terrible. 】

[There is also a more important factor upstairs. If this year's Nebula Awards and Hugo Awards perform well, the sales of award-winning books will definitely increase. After all, although there are not many readers of physical books, there are people who join in the fun There must be a lot, and many people who don't usually read books will follow suit and buy them. 】

[Haha, I forgot this point, but I can’t say that others follow suit. If it is really because of an award that drives the domestic science fiction market, it will be a great thing. The reading volume of us Chinese people is still a bit low. .If the Huaxia market is strong, it is estimated that the sales volume will have exploded long ago. 】

[Isn't it? Take "Dune" as an example. Although the population of China is several times that of the United States, the domestic sales volume of this book is not as high as that of the other side. It is quite annoying to think about it. 】

[Don't be angry, years ago, didn't some book websites publish data, did the per capita reading of books in China increase by 2020 in [-]?It is unprecedented progress in history. 】

[How much is [-]? 】

[A lot, which means that Chinese people read more than one billion books last year. 】

[Oh my god, that's a lot to say. 】

[It is indeed a lot, and the per capita reading volume of books in Huaxia has also exceeded the number of six for the first time. 】

[I'm going, so in the past, everyone didn't even read six books a year on average? 】

[In fact, if you follow the standard of reading, I dare say that this number will continue to drop. 】

[Indeed, many people bought it without reading it, and some people bought several copies for collection. 】

[I have to read at least a dozen books a year, so it's considered a pass, haha. 】

[I read more than 20 books a year, am I proud? 】

[I have more than 50 books a year. 】

[Ahem, if magazines are included, I estimate there are about two hundred copies a year. 】

[Everyone is so hung up, why do I feel that the number six is ​​a bit unreliable? 】

[It is averaged, because there are still many people in Huaxia who don't even read a book for a year. 】

[Nonsense, many people don't even know the words. 】

[Speaking of which, the increase of [-] is quite impressive. 】

[I hope that Zhang Zhong can maintain this momentum, maybe I can still see the day when the average person in China reads [-] books a year. 】

[I hope. 】

【come on! 】

[Come on +111111]

[Don’t just work on him alone, our little Xanthus also needs to work on it, and there are many, many writers, the country’s prosperity is not just about the economy. 】

["Tragedy on the Nile" will be released in a few days, everyone, please do your best. 】

[Don't worry, it's guaranteed to explode, fans of the Poirot series will be able to stand up. 】

……

Zhang Zhong only looked at the list once, and never paid attention to it again.

All he is thinking about now is studying literature. Later, he wants to invite Zhuang Yu and the others to Jiangyang for a chat, or he can fly again. It would be a waste of money to not use such a good resource.

"Well, meta-fiction...I didn't expect this writing technique to have a name, let me take a look..." Zhang Zhong stared at the computer screen, and the ocean of knowledge was waiting for him to come.
