Usually, when a book is being promoted, even if it does not disclose the specific content in the book, it will tell readers what type of the book is, suspense, science fiction, fantasy, love...

But YU's books are very different. Starting from "Old Books", Deep Space Company's promotion of YU's new book has maintained a sense of mystery, allowing readers to guess what the new book is.

When Ge Hongwei first saw the title of "Snowman", the first scene that came to his mind was a couple walking hand in hand in the heavy snow.

Given that YU has written "Old Books", it is not impossible to write another warm novel.

Of course, it is very likely that this kind of novel is not... But Ge Hongwei never thought that "Snowman" was actually a very thrilling novel.

Moreover, the cover of the novel looks very normal, just an ordinary house with a snowman piled up next to it.

The first snow has come, the snowman is about to reappear, and when the ice and snow melt, it will take someone away.

Just reading this sentence, Ge Hongwei didn't feel anything, but after reading the novel, when he read this sentence again, he felt a little chill on his back.

The heat inside the room was obviously very warm, but the coolness penetrated into his body.

The tall snowman in the yard - In order to make the snowman more conspicuous, Ge Hongwei piled the snowman's height to 1.67 meters. At this time, its two dark eyes stared at Ge Hongwei through the floor-to-ceiling window.

Although it was daytime, the light outside was very weak. A gust of wind curled up the snow on the ground and landed at the snowman's feet. In a trance, it seemed as if the snowman had moved.

Ge Hongwei shrank his neck. He was about to pour himself a cup of coffee, but he didn't dare to turn around. He was afraid to turn his back to the snowman.

His feet moved, and the floor creaked. He had never noticed that the floor of his house could make such a noticeable sound, as if there was a person hiding under the floor.

Ge Hongwei wanted to finish reading the novel, but he didn't dare to bow his head for a long time. He was afraid that after a long time, the snowman in the yard would disappear and appear behind him.

This novel describes the details very well, especially the part where the snowman chases the victim, which makes Ge Hongwei creepy and his hair stands upright.

Many things that can be seen everywhere usually become very scary when they come to this novel. He doesn't even dare to look up, for fear that he will find something special on the ceiling when he looks up, because there is also a description related to the ceiling in the novel.

As for the snowman, he was afraid to stare at it, and he didn't dare not stare at him. Anyway, it was very contradictory.

Just as Ge Hongwen was almost finished reading the book, the phone next to the sofa rang.

beep--

The extremely ordinary phone ringtone shocked Ge Hongwei, and he almost threw out the book in his hand.

After coughing lightly, he calmed his mind, he gently picked up the phone and asked, "Hey, who?"

There was only a rustling sound of electric current on the other end of the phone, quiet and no one spoke.

Ge Hongwei thought the signal was bad, or the other party did not realize that the phone was connected, which was normal. He often encountered it before, so he asked again, "Hello, who do you want to find?"

This time, a harsh friction sound suddenly rang out from the other end of the phone, as if someone was scratching the microphone with his nails. This high-frequency and chaotic sound made Ge Hongwei feel uncomfortable.

The key is that he was reading a very thrilling novel, and the phone call he suddenly made him feel a little uncomfortable.

It was like a few needles inserted into his temples, stirring him around in his head, stirring his brain into a pile of paste, preventing him from focusing.

"If you don't speak, I'll hang up the phone."

Maybe someone called the wrong phone number, or maybe it was a prank by a child, and he was about to hang up the phone number.

When he was about to hang up the phone, a very strange voice sounded across from him, "Don't look up... the ceiling... there is a face there, he smiles at you..."

Bang!

This is the sound of Ge Hongwei throwing the microphone out.

He swallowed, looked at the phone that fell to the ground with horror, and had no idea who was on the other end of the phone and why he did this.

The other party's voice was very special, a little low and a little hoarse, but not thick enough to tell whether it was a man or a woman. With a hint of electric current sound, it made people feel very terrifying.

Moreover, what the other party said was related to "Snowman". Ge Hongwei subconsciously wanted to look up at the ceiling, but just raised it forty-five degrees, so he didn't dare to lift it up any longer. He was worried that when he looked up, he found that there was really a face on the ceiling that was smiling at him.

Just as Ge Hongwei was at a loss when he looked at the microphone, he suddenly heard a burst of laughter coming from the microphone.

"Hahaha, Knight, I knew, I must have scared you, hahaha."

Hearing this voice, fear was like a tide retreating from Ge Hongwei, but then, the shame and anger of being played came up again. He blushed and shouted to the microphone on the ground: "Chris, I tell you, I was not scared at all."

As he said, as if he was worried that the other side would not hear it, he bent down and picked up the microphone and said fiercely: "Chris, I tell you, I was not scared at all, no!"

Chris laughed at the other end of the phone: "Is that right? What happened to the sound just now? Didn't you throw the microphone out in a fright?"

"No, you heard it wrong."

Chris didn't believe him at all, "You must have watched "Snowman", right? And there was a rut in front of my house that did not belong to me. It might belong to a blue Ford. The owner is a man who likes to wear black clothes and is petty. But we will talk about this matter later. I call you and want to ask you, is the new book good?"

Ge Hongwei wanted to deny Chris's speculation about ruts, but he bit his mouth and started chatting about the new book. "I haven't finished reading it yet, but the performance of the new book did not disappoint me. Although it is a thrilling suspense novel, its style is very special, and the description of details is YU's consistent level..."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Hearing Ge Hongwei's words, Chris looked very happy, "I also like the new book. Although the protagonist seems a little bit powerful in the reasoning part, the development of the case is satisfactory. Moreover, as a thrilling suspense novel, "Snowman" has an unexpected literary nature, and it shows enough attention to some problems in society..."

Although Ge Hongwei and Chris always make noise when they meet, they can always reach a consensus every time they talk about novels.

...

On the day of the release of "Snowman", major bookstores were of course always lively.

In order to attract readers to enter the bookstore, many bookstores even pile up a vivid snowman at the door. Of course, this is a privilege exclusive to the north.

In order to make snowmen more like humans, bookstores will put glasses, nose, ears, and even put clothes on snowmen. Some snowmen will have special smiles on their faces.

However, these snowmen, which are somewhat human-like, have become a catalyst for fear, allowing readers to experience real thriller while reading books.

And on that day, something strange happened on the Deep Space Tribe.

The cause of the incident was that a reader published a new tribe, which was: The snowman at my doorstep just smiled at me.

A tribe that was originally ordinary quickly caused a craze, and many similar tribes followed.

【My snowman keeps staring at me.】

[The snowman opposite opened his mouth to me just now, as if he was saying that everything would die.]

【The Snowman next door…】

At the beginning, the tribes posted by netizens were just one or two sentences, which was similar to the tribe at the beginning, but gradually, these netizens were not satisfied and only wrote one or two sentences. They began to compile more things and enrich the details.

Many people wrote short stories directly, basically snowmen were killing people, one was more thriller than the other, and one was more perverted than the other.

Seeing that everyone's reaction was so enthusiastic, the official Deep Space Tribe simply launched a second creation event. Netizens are welcome to conduct second creation of "Snowman". If the second creation is of high quality, it may be selected into the "Snowman Special".

Any article selected for "Snowman Special" can receive a considerable royalty.

This action once again stimulated netizens' passion for second creation.

In fact, this is a short story essay contest, which is just borrowing the east wind of "Snowman" and taking "Snowman" as the theme. If the event is done well, it can create momentum for "Snowman". In the future, those novels can be made into a collection and can be sold for money. Making the popularity of "Snowman" can be said to be a killing of multiple goals.

...

When Yu Dong met Mike Mohan and Alan Yadhan, it was just three days after "Snowman" was released. They each had a book "Snowman" and asked Yu Dong to sign it for them.

When Yu Dong finished signing the two books, Alan Yadhan held the signed book and said with a smile: "YU, to be honest, when I saw the tribe officially released by Deep Sky, I was very happy because I felt that "Snowman" was written for our Blizzard."

Yu Dong was holding the cup to drink water, and looked at Alan Yadhan over the edge, unable to help but smile.

Alan Yadhan's statement is really far-fetched. Although snowman has snow and blizzard has snow, in English, the two words have little to do with each other.

Yu Dong can understand why Alan Yadhan said that. Now Deep Space Company has become Blizzard’s parent company. How Blizzard will develop in the future depends on the attitude of Deep Space.

Even though they don’t know the specific relationship between Yu Dong and Deep Space America, they still understand that it is absolutely right to flatter him.

Yu Dong did not take advantage of Alan Yadhan, and instead talked about their itinerary, "There are several days left before the World Video Game Competition, and I thought you were going to come late."

Mike Mohan said with a smile: "It just so happened that nothing happened recently, so I came with Allen. I heard that the Deep Space Park is doing very well, so we want to come and take a look in advance."

"Have you already gone to see it?" Yu Dong asked with a smile.

"No, we will come to visit you as soon as we arrive in Jinling." Mike Mohan smiled and shook his head, then asked tentatively: "We heard..."

Yu Dong knew what he was going to ask and laughed, "You heard that Deep Sky is going to acquire Blizzard, which has something to do with me?"

The two of them didn't say anything, just nodded and looked at Yu Dong.

"The news you heard is correct." Yu Dong gave a positive answer, "I really proposed to acquire your company because I am optimistic about the development of your company, especially the theme of Warcraft."

Alan Yadhan and Mike Mohan looked at each other, and both of them were a little surprised. On the one hand, the unexpected acquisition was really driven by YU, and on the other hand, the unexpected thing was that YU actually took a fancy to their Warcraft theme, not "Starcraft".

Compared with "Starcraft" which is popular all over the world, "Warcraft" has much less appeal, because there is no essential difference between "Warcraft" and "Starcraft" and "Starcraft".

In most people's opinion, there is no need to play Warcraft after "Starcraft", unless players prefer the style and characters in "Warcraft".

Seeing the two of them’s doubts, Yu Dong did not explain them much, but just said with a smile: “Although I am more optimistic about Warcraft, I did not add it to the World Video Game Competition, because it is not the time yet. If Warcraft wants to distinguish it from Starcraft, I still have to make some breakthroughs. Otherwise, as long as there is Starcraft one day, Warcraft will not get up.”

Mike Mohan said with a look of surprise, "We were indeed thinking about this problem some time ago, and we also thought of a solution. Just add heroes to this game..."

When Mike Mohan mentioned the hero, Alan Yadhan, who was beside him, quickly coughed lightly, "Ahem."

Mike Mohan also reacted and stopped in time without further ado.

Yu Dong looked at the two of them with a smile and understood their thoughts. Although Deep Space Company is Blizzard's parent company, the two still wanted to guard against him.

Yu Dong expressed his understanding of this. As for what Mike Mohan didn't finish, Yu Dong could probably guess what it was.

"Warcraft" will become popular because of the emergence of "Warcraft 3". The biggest difference between "Warcraft 3" and "Warcraft 2" is the added importance of heroes in the game.

Because of enriching the character of Hero, it directly made the essential difference between Warcraft and Starcraft, and it has truly become two types of games.

Because of this, wcg later added Warcraft 3.

Later, the emergence of dota can also be said to be due to this change in "Warcraft 3".

However, since Mike Mohan and the others didn't say it, Yu Dong didn't mention it. He just needed to know that Mike Mohan and the others thought about it.

As long as Mike Mohan and the others think of it, then there should be no surprise in "Warcraft 3".
