The launch of the novel The Lord of the Rings can be called uneventful.
Except for those well-known writers who promote self-financed novels, there are few other channels that will publicize and promote them.
Of course, this has to exclude a small number of public figures who are indeed very competent.
Li Daniu is not famous, and Moon Press has never believed in his level, so after Li Daniu published it at his own expense, Moon Press just used its own supply channels to send the Lord of the Rings to bookstores in some major cities in the United States.
Although there are 100,000 copies of the first printing, after being distributed to nearly 1,000 bookstores in the United States, there really isn't much stock in each bookstore.
Moreover, for bookstores, such self-published books, unlike other books, if they can't be sold, they can get a refund from the publisher at the original price, which is also a common rule in the self-funded publishing industry, otherwise, even if there are only a dozen sets, no bookstore will be willing to spend this unjust money to get back.
The Lord of the Rings, at first, was just a book that some people found when they were inadvertently flipping through it when they were shopping in a bookstore, and after reading it, it was out of control.
People gather like people, and most of the people who like to read books will have a few people with the same hobbies, so a small range of recommendations will slowly begin.
Speaking of recommendations, how can you miss the Internet, now is the era of the Internet, everyone's life, are inseparable from the Internet, whether it is to show off the dinner you make, or to take pictures of the beautiful scenery when you travel, it has become a habit.
As a result, someone began to promote the book in the base of several famous reading enthusiasts on the Internet.
At this time, it was when Li Daniu found out that someone was criticizing him on the eyebook.
After that, Li Daniu talked to Sunshine Press about publishing, as well as buying a film company in Hollywood, and then returned to Tuvalu to make a movie, so he missed the explosion of the book about recommending the Lord of the Rings on the Internet.
Renault, a well-known critic with a poisonous tongue, was the fuse for the outbreak of the recommendation trend.
Since Renault became famous for his poisonous comments and criticism of various public figures, his life has changed a lot, from an otaku to an Internet celebrity with nearly two million followers.
This is not only a change in spiritual life, but also a change in material life, not to mention some products that need to be promoted are advertised with the help of his eyes, even some variety shows or reality shows in the United States, and he is often invited to the show.
In this way, incomes are higher and material life is changed.
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
Since Renault enjoyed the benefits of fame, he has become more and more poisonous, not only that, but he used to post videos to comment on the state after seeing something on the Internet or the news.
Now Renault has evolved into a critic who has nothing to do with his poisonous tongue.
After becoming famous, he naturally had some relationships, and these relationships were also happy to leak some less important news to Renault so that Renault could play it.
The fact that Li Daniu published the novel The Lord of the Rings at his own expense is the news that Renault got from Moon Press.
At that time, Renault was excited, didn't he send it to the door to make himself angry As a king, and a king of a least developed country, it is not good to reform his own country, but he has the leisure to write novels, and publish them at his own expense, which in itself is worth a poisonous relate.
Renault was even more excited when he learned that the novel, called The Lord of the Rings, had been judged by the editor-in-chief of Moon Press to be a non-interesting novel.
This not only has a slot, but also the people who can refute it have nothing to say, so Renault did not wait for the book he ordered to arrive, and happily published a critical dynamic.
And then there was a tragedy for Renault.
After the Lord of the Rings arrived, Renault couldn't wait to look at it, at first with the mentality of casually looking at it to find some slots, and then looking at it, Renault's reading speed became slower and slower, and finally even reverted to the beginning and re-watched it.
After reading it for the first time, Renault's first reaction was that he had been trapped.
Not by the friend who sent the news to him, but by the editor-in-chief of the Moon Publishing House, how unprofessional are you to call such a book a book that is not interesting Renaud is not a fool, he knows that his fame depends on his poisonous tongue, or strictly speaking, his well-founded poisonous tongue comments.
If there were no sufficient arguments, he would not have been able to become famous today.
Since he embarked on the road of Internet celebrity, he has always made his own comments after getting all the arguments, which is why so many people pay attention to him.
However, most people involuntarily swell up after getting fame, status, and money that they never imagined before.
That's how Renault was, when he was at the height of his life, he got the news of the Lord of the Rings, so he didn't think much about it, and directly criticized it first.
It wasn't until he finished reading the book that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Netizens will not understand that he was cheated by someone, and even the people who dug this pit did not expect that someone would fall into it.
Netizens will only find that he Renault made a mistake this time, and it was a very serious mistake, and the loss of fans is the lightest, and it is more serious, which may cause netizens to question all their previous comments and opinions.
When an influencer does not have the support of netizens, it is more serious than a parliamentarian who does not have the support of voters, because the only thing that influencers have is netizens.
After Renault finished reading the book, he knew that sooner or later, this book would become popular one day, and there would never be room to make up for what he had done, so he decisively began the road of self-redemption in his own eyes.
Inadvertently, Renault found his news again, and there was a certification number, and his name turned out to be Tarek, the same name as the author, and after clicking on it, he found that the certified identity turned out to be the king of Tuvalu.
This is really God help me, Renault sighed, there is no more to redeem, and he apologized directly to the original author, so he began to go crazy Tarek.
During this period of time, Li Daniu has been busy with movies, so he has no time and energy to pay attention to the news on the Internet.
If you don't pay attention, you can't see it, and if you can't see it, you won't reply. didn't know that this kind of non-reply suddenly increased Renault's pressure.
An apology is meaningful only if it is forgiven.
In order to save his reputation, Renault wanted Li Daniu to apologize in front of the magic ring of indisputable quality, but he didn't expect to get a reply for several days.
Renault couldn't have imagined that Li Da Niu would be busy at all, because he had checked Tuvalu, and a small one can't be in a small country, besides, Li Da Niu, as a king, actually has time to write a long magic novel, and the content is so exciting, it is definitely not three or five months to make it, and the time taken must be calculated in years.
Otherwise, but in the Lord of the Rings, the language of those races cannot be so real.

What's more, not long after he criticized the book at that time, Li Daniu did it himself.
The more he thought about it, the more Renault began to suspect that he had such a simple apology and did not get Li Daniu's forgiveness.
But if you think about it, it's normal, and anyone who has worked hard to write a work will be very unhappy if it is criticized by someone who hasn't seen it yet.
And this author is also a king, a king of a monarchy, accustomed to a word, how can it be so simple to forgive those who have offended him After thinking about it, Renault decided to advertise the Lord of the Rings for free, because he knew that a book like this self-published at his own expense would generally not have any advertising, and Li Daniu was not well-known in the United States, judging from the statistical report of the authoritative website, the book had been on the shelves for a week, and only more than 100 copies had been sold.
After Renault liked his wit, he began to spare no effort in advertising, not only constantly recommending this book on his own eyes, but also mobilizing some Internet celebrities with good relationships to recommend this book on his own eyes or other platforms.
In the Internet era, the power of Internet celebrities cannot be underestimated.
Renault itself has nearly two million followers, plus some other Internet celebrities, and this promotion has a direct audience of more than five million people. 100,000 sets of rings, compared to 5 million people, is really not worth mentioning.
Even if only one in twenty of the five million people would be willing to read this book, it would not be enough.
The charm of the Lord of the Rings book, as long as people who have read it, few people can resist it, and Americans like to read on paper.
So, in the second week of the Lord of the Rings, 100,000 units were sold out.
This achievement made the Lord of the Rings the top of the weekly bestseller list.
If a person who likes to read sees the top spot on the bestseller list, a book that he has never heard of, he will naturally want to see what kind of work this is.
However, at this time, the first printing of 100,000 sets was sold out, and the second batch of rings printed after Sunshine Press got the contract was not on the shelves.
The American people were amazed to find that they could not buy this novel, which won the top spot of the weekly chart, in any bookstore.
What the is going on, is it that the website that counts book sales data is playing a joke on people all over the United States, when in fact there is no such thing as a book But today is not April Fool's Day.
There are too many curious people, especially after some media reports on this matter, and there are even more curious people.
People in the 21st century have a good habit of asking questions first and foremost, and that is the Internet.
I searched for the Lord of the Rings with a search engine, and the results displayed surprised the American people again, because all the search results about this book, except for the two keywords of weekly list and out of stock, were all praise.
It is a universally recognized fact that there are no zero negative reviews in the Internet age.
But the Lord of the Rings, which has sold 100,000 sets, can't find a single one on the Internet that says the book is not good, this hype, is it a bit too much investment It's no wonder that the first reaction of netizens is hype, it's really because there has been too much hype in recent years.
Without waiting for the results of netizens' discussions, some people found out that the book actually had bad reviews, and the bad reviewer was the famous poisonous critic Renault, and when he clicked on the homepage of Renault's Eye Book, his glasses fell to the ground again, because Renault's attitude towards the book reversed too quickly.
Renault is a nursery Few people would say that, because Renault had already sworn that he was not a childcare on his own eyes.
So, the question is, is this book really that good If it's really that good-looking, why don't publishers restock it in time?
