The Goddess Shines on America

　　 Today is November 15, the release date of the new book "Jurassic Park".

Due to the early publicity, in just a few months, this book was on the list of the New York Times’ most anticipated new books of the year, so when this day comes, it’s not just Bantam’s. New York, Atlanta, Chicago, and Los Angeles also welcomed the first batch of new books at the same time.

　　 As a native New Yorker, Harry naturally came to Manhattan's bookstore. As a science fiction fan, he has long been looking forward to this book. Therefore, early in the morning at 8 o'clock, he would rather squeeze the peak period with other office workers, and he must be the first group of people to buy books.

　　 There was a long line at the entrance of the Browne Bookstore in the early morning. When Harry arrived, he found that it had been half an hour before the bookstore opened, but the line had already extended to the end of this street! God knows, this is not the Christmas rush of Black Friday, just the release of a new book of science fiction, this kind of grand occasion has made other writers see it, and it must be so jealous!

　　 "I've been looking forward to it for a long time!"

　　 While queuing, Harry said to a bearded middle-aged man next to him: "I have always liked dinosaurs since I was a kid. When I was young, I often went to museums to see fossils. There were even models of Tyrannosaurus at home!"

The middle-aged man wore a T-shirt with the national flag printed on it and nodded, “I also like dinosaurs. When this bookstore first advertised it, I asked for a tri-folded page. Using cloning technology to create a living dinosaur , And then actually want to build a theme park. This idea is really rare."

　　 "And the point is, this book is clearly written as a science fiction thriller!"

　　At this time, an old man in front of the team smiled and said, "So, this theme park must be an accident, otherwise there is nothing to be scared of, right?"

　　 The middle-aged man nodded and said, "So the point of the question is what happened. Could it be that the carnivorous dragon rioted collectively while the tourists were playing?"

　　 Harry frowned and said, "Is that too cruel? After all, most of the people who go to theme parks are children. If the author really wrote that many children were eaten by dinosaurs, the impact would be too bad."

The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled: "You are wrong. If there is such a dinosaur theme park in the world, it is more than a child, and no one should come to see it? So even if it is dead, the author must give priority to adults. Don't worry about that."

　　 said so, but Harry felt a little speechless again, why does this middle-aged man favor this kind of plot so much? Moreover, when many tourists are having fun together, there is a sudden monster attack. Why is this setting so familiar? "

　　 After a few gossips, the bookstore finally opened, and Harry didn't think much anymore. He walked in with the large group and soon took the freshly released "Jurassic Park" into his arms.

　　 "Oh, my God, it's so beautifully packaged, I can't help but have a look!"

　　 In the corner of the bookstore, a young man's startled breath caught Harry's attention. Seeing that the other person must be of the same kind, he stepped forward and said: "Harry Purness, third year at New York University."

　　 "Jeff Bezos, I go to school in Princeton."

　　 Bezos also recognized that Harry is a book lover, and said enthusiastically: "I paid attention to this book when it was first promoted, and now I finally get it. I'm so happy!"

　　 "Yes, yes, so am I, and I am still an authentic dinosaur fan. I have made a model, the dinosaur universe explorer Anil!"

"Fortunately, Harry, by the way, do you know the author of this book? Everyone knows that this Alice-Wang is a newcomer writer, so they are not very clear about her life, Bantam even She hasn't announced how old she is."

Harry looked around and found that there were customers buying books everywhere, but there was no fixed link in the usual book launches: "Yeah, the newspaper didn't say that the author was going to hold a new book launch. Is she sick? She shouldn't be here on such an important day."

　　 "Maybe she is not interested in this kind of thing."

A tall figure came towards them, with a chin and beard and a T-shirt printed with the national flag. The middle-aged man took the book he had just bought and said: "If the author is a rich lady or a daughter, it would be fine if you don’t participate in such activities. It doesn't matter, because for them, writing books may just be a hobby."

　　 This is the second time Harry met this man in just half an hour. Thinking of the other person’s previous imagination of the plot, he moved in his heart and asked, "May I ask you who?"

　　 "Steven Spielberg."

　　 The other party smiled and shrugged: "Maybe you have heard my name?"

　　 Harry took a breath first, Steven Spielberg, so famous, of course he had heard of it a long time ago!

　　 "Oh my God! Mr. Spielberg! Excuse me for not recognizing you right away, it's you!"

　　 He said excitedly: ""Jaws", "Third Kind of Contact", "E-T", especially "Indiana Jones", I have seen almost all of your movies. I am your loyal fan!"

　　 Compared to Harry's excitement, Spielberg was very calm, just shook hands with him amicably. After all, for him, meeting fans was nothing more than normal.

　　 At that moment, Bezos standing on the side spoke: "Mr. Spielberg, I want to ask, is it possible for a novel like Jurassic Park to be adapted into a movie?"

Spielberg hesitated and said: "The difficulty lies mainly in the production of dinosaurs. The "King Kong" in the 1930s used simple model machines. The "Alien" in previous years was played by humans. They are definitely not suitable. This movie. So, if a company has a film plan, it must solve this problem."

　　 "In other words, it still depends on technological development in related fields."

　　 Bezos was a little disappointed. As early as the promotion of the new book, he eagerly expected this work to be made into a movie. But listening to the analysis of this famous director, I am afraid that it will not be possible in recent years.

　　 Harry didn't have so many thoughts, no one stipulated that a book would be adapted into a movie as soon as it was released. The first book of his beloved "Galactic Empire" series was published in the 1950s, but hasn't there been any filming plan until now? Like "Lord of the Rings", how can the current technology show the greatness of Middle-earth? Twisted melons are not sweet, I really have to shoot hard, it will only spoil the classics.

　　 So, holding his beloved book, he went home happily.

　　 From early morning to late at night, the four major cities across the country simultaneously sell. New York, Chicago, Atlanta and Los Angeles are all major cities in the country. The first day of sales of "Jurassic Park" easily exceeded 50,000 copies. The sales data of various bookstores was released quickly and was quickly sent to the editorial department of Bantam Books.

　　 The office is brightly lit late at night, and the editor who cares about everything is overjoyed.

"Very good. This result is really very good. It's worth noting that we spent so much effort to promote. In the four cities, the sales volume reached 50,000 on the first day. It is not a problem to exceed 300,000 in the next month, even 400,000. It's all possible!"

In the conference room ~www.readwn.com~, the editor-in-chief Domingo said happily: "Hurry up and notify the printing factory to increase the printing volume, and then contact the partner bookstores in more cities, and the accounting department quickly calculates the first day's sales. Brown, You contact Miss Alice to inform us of our good news!"

　　 For some time now, Brown can be said to be very refreshed in happy occasions. Everywhere he goes, he has his chest up and his head up, and he is full of arrogance. Since "Jurassic Park" topped the most anticipated list of the year, he confirmed at the time. My performance and year-end bonus can't run away, but it hasn't been for a long time.

　　 Looking back now, I really look like a torch, why did you unearth such a rising star like Alice?

　　 "No problem, I left the contact work. With such high sales on the first day, the child can make a lot of profits. After knowing it, she can laugh out loud in her dreams, right?"

　　 Brown’s words immediately ushered in the ridicule of colleagues: "Oh, you guy, you laughed out of your own dreams, right? The year-end bonus is so rich, your mortgage has finally been completely paid off."

　　 "Yes, yeah, and the new flamingo you bought. With these batches of performance, you can buy another new car!"

　　 "Brown, you have to thank Alice, how much she can earn is her business, and it is true that it can be in your hands!"

　　 Listening to the envy and jealousy of his colleagues, Brown also nodded vigorously. Yes, if the book of Alice hadn't been published, given the current financial conditions of the family, he might really be divorcing his wife soon.
