  Chapter 194: A Phenomenal Book!! (Part 1)

  Su Shi's showdown with Yuan Jiu has captured the attention of many people, and numerous media outlets have been following the story since the new book launch event.

  Even though Yuanju invited many big-name authors, at the new book launch conference he was still thoroughly suppressed by Su Xueran.

  A certain TV station even produced a large-scale live program "The Strongest Rival" based on this, which was a live broadcast of the entire match.

  "The competition mainly unfolds in three aspects: popularity, reputation and sales volume. Among them, popularity and sales volume are directly linked, generally speaking, the higher the sales volume, the higher the popularity."

  "Earlier, Yuanju was confidently saying in a TV show interview that 'Doomsday Earth' can absolutely surpass 'The Matrix', and Su Rixing also said he would defeat Yuanju in three aspects. Both of them have the determination to win, so this match is definitely going to be a fierce battle! Between 'The Matrix' and 'Doomsday Earth', who will ultimately emerge victorious?"

  There were all sorts of predictive comments before, but now there is no need to predict. The two books are on the market, and a clear comparison can be made by looking at sales volume and popularity.

  The bookstore and newsstand are crowded, the boss is grinning from ear to ear. They don't care which book wins, as long as sales are good it's okay, each one sold is money!

  "Brother, help me out with something!"

  "What's the rush, I guarantee it with my life!" Wang Kai patted his chest, without even asking what Hu Kai's position was in the company. He was known as a man who could "get things done", what couldn't he accomplish?

  "I went to work early today and arrived at the company before dawn, the bookstore was not open yet, so I wanted to buy The Matrix but couldn't get it, how about you bring me a copy?"

  "Alright, no problem, I'll definitely buy it for you." Wang Kai heard this and thought, is that all? It can be done in just a few seconds. Of course, he agreed, but then he had a question.

  "Why can't I buy it after work? Why do I have to buy it in the morning? Is it cheaper at the bookstore in the morning or something? Does this bookstore also have discounts like the vegetable market in the morning?"

  "Get out, except for store transfer or World Book Day, I've never seen books discounted in a bookstore."

  "What's going on? Can't you wait a moment because The Matrix is so good-looking?" Wang Kai also had this feeling when watching the game.

  "How would I know if The Matrix is good or not, have I even seen it?"

  "Shrimp rice, I've never seen you so eager. What if it's a lousy book? That would be fun."

  "How can it be a lousy book?" The voice on the other end of the phone argued loudly.

  "Haven't you seen it before?"

  "You don't understand, the author of The Matrix is Su Shi Chen. If you don't read Su Shi Chen's books at the first time, you will definitely regret it! Okay, that's all, be sure to help me bring one!"

  Hanging up the phone, Wang Kai came to a newsstand with someone else's entrustment. Originally, Wang Kai thought that buying a book would be a very relaxing and pleasant thing, which could be done in just a few minutes.

  But the moment he arrived at the newsstand, he knew he was wrong, completely wrong. Inside and out, it was surrounded by layers and layers, a complete blockade!

  "I'm going! This scene is just like the morning supermarket discounts, those old men and women gathered at the supermarket entrance are about the same! It's just buying books, do you need to be so exaggerated?"

  If they wait for these people to finish shopping slowly, Wang Kai won't have to go to work today. So the only way is to squeeze in, desperately squeezing inside.

  "Give me a copy of 'The Matrix', quick! I'm in a hurry!" Wang Kai poked out his head, hoping to be understood.

  "What's the hurry? You think you're the only one who's late for work?"

  "You go to work? I still have school today! What are you panicking about?"

  "School doesn't count! These are the last few days, and I'm risking a month without full attendance to grab these books!"

  As soon as Wang Kai spoke, everyone immediately started arguing, and a few drops of cold sweat dripped from his forehead. At this time, the difference between the crowded newspaper stand and the crowded supermarket was revealed.

  If it were a supermarket, with Wang Kai's physique, being strong and sturdy would be very good for squeezing in. Because the others are all old men and women. But people buying books at newsstands are either working professionals or high school and college students. The scene was quite spectacular! After finally squeezing in, Wang Kai was squeezed out like a small boat, without any room to resist.

  "I've done this, why does it feel so familiar?" Wang Kai thought for a while and finally remembered that this feeling was the same as when he bought tickets on the train during Spring Festival, it's exactly the same.

  The Spring Festival travel rush is like a battlefield!

  "It's not just this one newsstand, I don't know what these people are crowding about!" Wang Kai is a very clever and elegant person. If you can't get it here, then change to another newsstand. But all the newsstands along the way were like this, and some were even more exaggerated.

  One, two...... seven, finally heaven rewards those who are diligent, when finding the eighth newsstand, I finally found that this newsstand had no one surrounding it.

  It's this rhythm, seize the opportunity, at that moment Wang Kai was not running alone, Bolt, Liu Xiang, Wei Ge were possessed by their souls at that moment, Hu Kai crossed over numerous hardships and finally... ran across the road to the newspaper stand.

  Wang Kai pulled out the money: "Boss, give me a copy of 'The Matrix'!" Just when Wang Kai thought his mission was about to be accomplished, the newsstand owner gave him a fatal reply: "The Matrix is sold out, how about a copy of 'Doomsday Earth'?"

  Sold out! How about "The End of the World" instead?

  Hu Kai suddenly had a strong urge to flip the table, damn it! After finally finding a newspaper stand that wasn't crowded, he ended up with this result!

  In fact, Wang Kai didn't think about it either. If the "Matrix" at this newsstand hadn't sold out, would his path have been so smooth?

  "My goodness! Is it going to be that decisive? Alright, great! Today if I don't manage to buy a copy of 'The Matrix', I'll write the character for 'king' upside down!" Wang Kai's determination is quite encouraging, but it seems like the character for 'king' is still 'king' even when written upside down..."

  Wang Kai thought that since he couldn't buy it at a small newsstand, he would go to a bigger place! He didn't believe that large bookstores would still be in such a crowded situation.

  Wang Kai took a firm step forward and embarked on a road of no return...

  Looking at Wang Kai's receding back, the newspaper stand owner had a different kind of mood. What kind of mood was it? It was beyond words and phrases to describe. If there were Jay Chou in this world and his song "Chrysanthemum Platform", it could fully express the newspaper stand owner's mood: The chrysanthemums are withered, my heart is wounded, your smile has faded...

  Sincerely, the newspaper stand owner really had a sense of chrysanthemum remnants at this time. It was clear that he was also paying attention to the battle between Yuanju and Su Xichen. Su Xichen had already created miracles before and his reputation was very great. Compared to Su Xichen, Yuanju's fame was much smaller, so this was a complete reversal of the stage.

  The boss of the newsstand, who is well-versed in the ways of the internet, thought that according to the plot of online stories, it's usually unknown people who create miracles. So he determined that Yu Rong would make a comeback and defeat Su Zhan in the end, and thus decided to emulate a great ancient man - Lü Buwei - "strange goods can be sold!"

  He bought a large number of "Doomsday Earth" and only a few copies of "The Matrix". But what was the result? It was completely opposite to his expectations. "The Matrix" exploded with crazy sales, leaving him stunned. Watching every customer who wanted to buy "The Matrix" but left, his heart was bleeding! What's going on?! Not just Wang Kai, but all of them! How could the newspaper stand owner not be worried?

  However, the loss of the horse is a blessing in disguise. Through this lesson, the owner of the newsstand realized that any book by Su Renshan would be a bestseller. With this conviction, he expanded his small newsstand into a larger business.

  The matter was settled in two ways. On the other hand, Wang Kai had already arrived at the largest bookstore in Yang City and entered the store to find a service staff member.

  "Excuse me, where can I find the book 'The Hacker Empire'?" The bookstore clerk politely pointed to one side. Wang Kai looked in that direction and saw [Su Xichen's new book - "The Hacker Empire" is now on shelves!]. The entire bookshelf was originally filled with books, but now it was surrounded by people, making it impossible to get through. This was the difference between Su Xichen and others.

  "This time I must have gotten it!" Wang Kai thought to himself, the big bookstore definitely has enough books, although the situation before his eyes is still crowded and very cramped.

  It seems like countless hands are scrambling for books on the bookshelf, and this scene is intimidating just to look at.

  "No way, I promised to buy a copy of 'The Matrix'!" Wang Kai gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, charging into the sea of people. In an instant, he felt like a fallen leaf drifting in the wind, or a sandwich cookie being squeezed to bursting point.

  "My goodness! It's just buying a book, isn't it? Do you have to be so exaggerated? It's as if I've committed patricide or something!" Wang Kai had already forgotten how many times his feet had been trampled. He was usually a very intelligent and elegant person, but now he had completely lost his composure.

  From me relying on upgrades to me doing it myself and then upgrading again, step by step challenging his demeanor.

  If anyone else tells Wang Kai that buying "The Matrix" is a very simple thing, Wang Kai will definitely slap him in the face. This is not something that can be done in just a minute or two, this difficulty is simply called going up a knife mountain and down a fire sea.

  As if he had gone through 99 difficulties, Wang Kai finally bought "The Matrix". Holding this hard-won book, a thought of "with one book in hand, I have the whole world" suddenly emerged in his mind!

  One book in hand, whether the world has it or not is unclear. However, what's clear is that Wang Kai is about to be late, and now Wang Kai needs to take the light rail at the light rail station and go straight to the company.

  Wang Kai was busy for a while and finally sat on the light rail, he could finally take a breather.

  Although Wang Kai has not read "The Hacker's Mission" now, he also thinks it must be a good book.

  As for why people think this way, the reason is actually very simple. Once a journalist interviewed a mother who risked her life to save her son in a fire and asked her why she did it. The mother replied: "My son was born with great difficulty, how could I not save him?"

  This is absolutely true, and the book "Hacker's Mission" was bought by Wang Kai with great difficulty, how can it not be a classic?!

  Wang Kai sat on the light rail and suddenly discovered something... (Please search 5du5 for more updates!)
