"Don't make a fuss, Lu An. You also know that this kind of sales is right for the right time, place and people, and it cannot last long. It will return to normal in two months."

You are so greedy that you want to last for another two months? However, two months are not a big problem. This is the hottest cultural phenomenon since 1992!

Luan Walter joked, with an unconcealed tone.

The works were sold out, and Lin Chaoyang, a writer, gained both fame and fortune. The same was true for their Random Bookstore, and they made a lot more money than Lin Chaoyang.

Moreover, the best-selling of "Dallas Buyer Club" has also led to the hot sale of Lin Chaoyang's other works, and the copyrights of these books are all in Random Bookstore.

In this wave, Randon Bookstore can be said to be Qin Shihuang chewed the peppercorns one by one!

Of course, it would be even more perfect if they could get the copyright of "China on the Bite of the Tongue".

Luan Walter thought greedily.

"What about the next thing?" Lin Chaoyang asked.

"The next thing? Oh, I almost forgot. Have you started writing your new work?"

"not yet."

"Why haven't you started writing yet? Lin, "Dallas Buyer Club" has been completed for almost a year, you are too lazy!" Luan Walter has never urged the manuscript so seriously, and then he thought of it. I asked suddenly, "Did the New Yorker harass you?"

"It's not just "The New Yorker", Judith is talking to me."

"China on the Bite of the Tongue" was born from the column of "The New Yorker", which was only serialized for 3 months at that time.

This brought a sales increase of 300,000 copies per issue to the New Yorker.

After the collection was published, the sales volume was still excellent.

It is logical that the two sides should continue to cooperate, but by chance, Lin Chaoyang just left the United States some time ago.

The New Yorker magazine suddenly changed and Robert Gottlieb was cut by his boss Newhouse.

This incident not only made friends such as Lin Chaoyang feel suddenly, but even Robert Gottlieb himself caught him off guard.

At that time, he was on a business trip in Japan and saw the news of his dismissal on TV. The one who took over him was "

Tina Brown, the original editor of Vanity Fair.

Speaking of which, the conflict between Robert Gottlieb and his boss Newhouse has been around for a long time. Newhouse is a businessman and he urgently hopes that Robert Gottlieb will bring new and fruitful changes to The New Yorker.

But the fact is that after Gottlieb took over "The New Yorker", he inherited the style of former editor-in-chief William Sean. Although he continued the elite style of "The New Yorker", he also isolated young readers to a certain extent.

Newhouse wanted the brand new "The New Yorker", and Tina Brown came from a fashion magazine, which just met his needs.

After Tina Brown took over as editor-in-chief, she was not enthusiastic about Lin Chaoyang either.

There are two reasons. First, "China on the Bite of the Tongue" was originally a credit for the former editor-in-chief Gottlieb. Even if she takes it, no matter how successful she has, no one will remember it.

Second, she believes that "China on the Bite of the Tongue" does not match her upcoming route in "The New Yorker".

Lin Chaoyang originally wrote a column for "The New Yorker" because he was invited by Robert Gottlieb.

Now that he has changed the editor-in-chief and doesn't like him, he naturally won't stick to his cold butt with a warm face.

But for some reason, more than a week ago, Tina Brown suddenly contacted Lin Chaoyang again, with an abnormal enthusiasm, hoping that he could continue to write a column for "The New Yorker".

"Haha, she probably didn't understand the importance of your column at the beginning." Luan Walter sneered after hearing Lin Chaoyang's situation.

"China on the Bite of the Tongue" brought sales growth to the magazine after the publication of "The New Yorker", which is an obvious contribution, but more importantly, the column's bonus on magazine advertising revenue.

Luan Walter said it well, Tina Brown just joined the magazine, and there is a high possibility of acting rashly without knowing it.

However, Lin Chaoyang didn't care about this. It wouldn't make money to write a column for "The New Yorker". Since Gottlieb is nowhere to be a thousand, he really doesn't have to write it.

He stopped writing a column, and Tina Brown felt uncomfortable. With the current influence of "China on the Bite of the Tongue" in the United States, the loss of "The New Yorker" may be calculated in tens of millions of dollars.

In addition to Tina Brown, Lin Chaoyang does not write a column, and Judith Jones is also feeling uncomfortable. She also hopes that Lin Chaoyang will write "China on the Bite of the Tongue" to create some achievements for her.

So these days, Judith Jones kept calling Lin Chaoyang to persuade him that this "2" would have to be written. It doesn't matter if you don't write a column. It can be published directly. American readers are looking forward to seeing you

What about the book.

In order to make Lin Chaoyang change her mind, she also sent some magazines to Lin Chaoyang, which were all the comments about "China on the Bite of the Tongue" by people from various media and cultural circles over the past few months.

British writer Pete Mayer posted in the Atlantic Monthly: "China on the Bite of a Tongue" is not so much a dietary work, but rather a love letter written by Lin Chaoyang to food, one by one, moving, wise and irresistible.

Last month's Publisher Weekly issue published this comment:

Unlike the changing trends of the modern American culinary industry, China's food culture has a long history and inherits the cultural and historical heritage.

In the book "China on the Bite of the Tongue", Lin Chaoyang is like a devout believer, integrating the way of diet into history, nature and humanity, and expressing his initial belief in diet and cooking in elegant and unique words.

"Writing a column or not is not important to you. If you write too much of that kind of article, it is easy for people to confuse you with food writers, which is not a good thing.

Lin, your most important identity is a novelist. It is crucial for you to write a great writer who can be famous for his literary history."

Luan Walter was still afraid that Lin Chaoyang would be distracted, so he wished he would not write a column and concentrate all his energy on the creation of the new novel.

After a few words of rainbow farts, he said again: "You are getting closer to the Nobel Prize in Literature, and you will be nominated this year."

"If you said I could win the award, I might be happier." Lin Chaoyang joked.

Luan Walter smiled bitterly, "You have too high demands. Lin, don't be so greedy!"

With the strength of Random Bookstore, it is easy to find a nominee to endorse Lin Chaoyang, but the Nobel Prize in Literature recommends up to one or two thousand candidates every year, and nomination is just the most insignificant step.

"Just just kidding. There are too many factors that affect the award, so don't expect it."

"You can't say that. With your strength, the probability of winning the award is still very high. The key is that you are young!"

Lin Chaoyang:-

Aun Walter's words made him think of Haruki Murakami whom he had seen some time ago. Of course, Haruki Murakami is more than Haruki Murakami who runs with him every year.

How many powerful writers have turned white and have not waited for a Nobel Prize in Literature.

If that were the case, he would rather not be nominated.

What a fool!

"Okay, there is nothing else? If not, just die."

"Of course there is."

"If you have something to do, you can't finish it in one go?" Lin Chaoyang complained.

"You can't blame me, there are too many things, you have to say one by one."

"Okay, tell me quickly, I'm still stewed with meat on the stove."

"Okay, you will be happy if I say this."
