Gone with the Wind!
Gone with the Wind!
Gone with the Wind!
This name appeared everywhere!
This was undoubtedly even bigger publicity for the !
For a moment, the reputation of the , Gone with the Wind, had become even greater internationally. More and more people in English-speaking countries found out about this book and knew about this author named Zhang Ye. Even the people of many non-English-speaking countries where Gone with the Wind hadn’t been published yet had developed a very strong interest and curiosity about this . Some of the foreign citizens whose English was better sought their friends’ help to buy the book for them. If there was no localized edition of it, they were willing to read the English edition too. They wanted to see what was so magical and amazing about this book! Once this cycle began, it became very difficult to stop!
Thus, Gone with the Wind was selling even crazier now!
The sales volume each day was skyrocketing!
3 million!
3.5 million!
3.7 million!
…
Meanwhile.
In China.
At Zhang Ye’s Studio.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt this moment, everyone was screaming with joy!
Ha Qiqi was very excited. “It’s a success! We’ve done it!”
Zhang Zuo laughed heartily. “The foreign market has been opened! This is a historic breakthrough! Even without winning the Nobel Prize, we would go down in the history books! There has never been a Chinese that has sold so well overseas! The sales figures must have broken all records! And it’s still setting a new high every day!”
Tong Fu was nervous. “C-Can this count as a Chinese ?”
Zhang Ye rolled his eyes. “I’m a Chinese citizen, and I wrote it, so why wouldn’t it count?”
It was written in English!
And released overseas!
And the setting was even in America too!
And you’re fucking telling me that this is a Chinese ?
Tong Fu was floored.
Little Wang said in surprise, “Who cares what it is! All that matters is that it can sell well! We’re gonna be rich this time! It’s all money!”
Wu Yi was catching his breath from the excitement. “How much money will we earn? Ever since Director Zhang’s comeback, the studio has been struggling to make ends meet. We finally have money!”
Zhang Ye proudly said with a smile, “Well, the money isn’t important. What’s important is the fame we earn. If we can break out onto the international stage, if we can gain a spot on the international celebrity rankings, there won’t be a shortage of money making opportunities in the future. So don’t set your sights too low. Oh yes, when will the Russian and Chinese editions be released?”
Ha Qiqi said, “They’ll be released today!”
Zhang Ye said, “Alright, let’s build on that and take the next city!”
“Got it!”
“Director Zhang is mighty!”
“You’re so impressive!”
Everyone was sucking up to him. But maybe, it shouldn’t be called sucking up since they were truly convinced by Zhang Ye’s capabilities. They were utterly convinced by him from head to toe! By writing an English based on an American setting, everyone had thought that Director Zhang had fucked up and that he was being too rash. He was someone who had never ever been to America before, so how could he possibly write a with a setting that covered the American Civil War? Yet the reality was that Director Zhang could do it. He had actually used the to kick open the door to the international literature market. So how could they not be convinced by him?
At this moment, Zhang Ye finally felt reassured. It was a load off his mind.
He knew that Gone with the Wind wouldn’t have any problems of unsuitability in the market. That it could sell so well had absolutely nothing to do with the promotions, s, or his character. It was purely because this was a good book. This was a that could astonish the entire world’s literary field even if it was just left there. The history of his previous world had proven this point. For a person to reach the pinnacle of the international literary world with just one , only Margaret Mitchell had achieved that!
And now.
Zhang Ye had recreated Mitchell’s achievement in this world!
…
Meanwhile.
It blew up in China as well!
The news that had made it back to China’s shores from the international scene had dumbfounded countless Chinese citizens!
On Weibo.
“Holy shit!”
“Is this fucking real?”
“Did he really break into the international market?”
“Gone with the Wind has sold like crazy?”
“Zhang Ye! Teacher Zhang! Fellow Zhang! I am truly in fucking genuflection of you!”
“You can even do it like this?”
“Is this really that good?”
“Who the hell knows? How on earth did it sell like crazy?”
“It’s sold out in America, Britain, Canada, and Australia?”
“I’m feeling a little faint. Please allow me to calm down a little!”
“I’m also wondering just what sort of a this is.”
“Who can still get the English edition?”
“You can’t get them anymore.”
“I heard that the Chinese edition is going on sale today!”
“Are you sure? Then I’ve got to buy a copy to read it!”
“I’ll have to read it too. Just what is so awesome about this book?”
“I’ve never read foreign s since childhood, but I’ve got to read it no matter what.”
“What do you mean by a foreign ? This is clearly a Chinese .”
“Pfft! You call this a fucking Chinese ? None of the main leads’ names are even in Chinese!”
“That Zhang Ye has really made such a great transformation in his bid to get into the international scene!”
“But it does feel like this guy has managed his transformation successfully!”
“Hai, when has he not successfully made a transformation before? As long as it’s something that he wants to do, there’s basically nothing that he can’t do. There’s really something sinister going on with this fellow!”
…
In the Chinese literary circle.

“It can even be done like this?”
“Has it really sold so crazily?”
“The in all of the dozen English-speaking countries like America and Canada are sold out?”
“That’s something that very few foreign writers can achieve!”
“What book is this called?”
“I don’t know, I can’t read English.”
“I’ve read it a little, and it seems like it’s about war and life. It’s purely based on American history!”
“Just how did he manage to write something like that!”
“Actually, for someone who was able to write a book like Fortress Besieged years ago, I wouldn’t be surprised by any book he writes. Zhang Ye’s literary prowess is just too deep! He has mastered everything!”
“But he still couldn’t have possibly mastered it all the way to America!”
…
At a male idol’s studio.
“Can he really do it?”
“Why do I find this so unreal!”
“It is being sold around the world already?”
“And there’s even a fucking Russian edition?”
“How does he know Russian!”
“Who can tell me the answer to your question!”
“He already knows English, so what’s so surprising that he knows Russian as well!”
“When will the Chinese edition go on sale? Let’s buy a few copies too. I wanna know what it’s about! How can someone as notorious as Zhang Ye possibly write something that could convince the international audience!”
…
The Chinese media.
“Zhang Ye’s new sells well overseas!”
“Zhang Ye might be the number one in China’s literary field!”
“Will the Nobel Prize Committee cast a glance at Zhang Ye?”
“Gone with the Wind goes on sale in China today!”
“The Russian edition of Gone with the Wind will be released soon!”
“Can Gone with the Wind sell well in non-English-speaking countries? Wait and see!”
Zhang Ye’s new had given a great shock to many people!
