Chapter 646 Not a surprise, but a shock!
A single flower blooms is not spring, but a hundred flowers bloom in the garden.
If only Zhang Chu is the only book in the book market, then it will not prosper no matter what!
So the thriving situation is what everyone who cares about the publishing industry wants to appear.
There are enough works of chicken soup and warmth. Different types of works are active in the market, giving readers more choices and making the bestseller classification no longer single. These are very important.
On the Amazon Book Bestseller List, it is now a hundred flowers blooming. Among them, the top one is of course "Da Vinci Code", and then there are economic management, foreign classics, inspirational categories, essay collections, psychology, children's books, humanities and social sciences, etc.
Not only Amazon China, but also the book sales list of several other countries, and the kindle e-book sales list is also the leader in "Da Vinci Code" and is far ahead.
It seems that its hot trend is irreversible.
Among all developed countries, the United States is the country with the strongest religious atmosphere. According to Gallup survey, about 40% of Americans participate in religious activities at least once a week. The southern and the Midwest regions are called the Bible zone. However, the more developed the people participate in religious activities, the less time they spend!
Among so many beliefs, nearly 80% belong to various Christian denominations, mainly Catholicism and Protestantism, while the remaining 20% believe in a variety of religions and atheists.
Adam was born in a Christian family in Florida. Although he is now working in New York, the influence of his family has been profoundly influenced by him.
Being a sports star agent is not a comfortable job, especially as an agent, it is just an internship, which is almost equivalent to doing chores for others.
All the nfl stars are worth billions and have a big temper, and there are many troubles. Adam spends all kinds of calls every day.
When it was late at night, his favorite thing was to read books under the dim lights.
Perhaps it was the plain and depressing real life that made him want to escape, so Adam's favorite book type is the thriller, suspense, crime, which would give him a different sense of pleasure!
And he enjoyed the feeling of crushing with high IQ. His wisdom was not in vain and he did not waste it on those simple-minded and muscular players.
What attracted Adam first was not the £12 million prepaid manuscript fee in Random House, but the last words left by the curator circulated on Twitter.
That clever last words really made him very happy. Now more and more suspense is developing in a superficial direction. Either the clues are extremely obvious or they rely entirely on nonsense. There are fewer and fewer works like "The Da Vinci Code" designed with care!
Adam knew that if he hadn't read the analysis of the master on Twitter, he might have been able to solve the puzzle himself, but it might take a little longer.
When "The Da Vinci Code" was officially launched, he bought a book at the bookstore at the end of get off work, and there were quite a few people buying books there.
Staying up late has become a habit, and he even poured himself a cup of black coffee. When Adam turned on the content, he felt a little dissatisfied.
"It's a villain again, why can't these authors think of anything new in their heads?"
Adam expressed dissatisfaction with the Catholic re-appointed villain, whether as a half-believers or an ordinary reader, he was used to this practice.
The only newness is that the identity of the killer was announced so quickly, which is simply a counter-routine!
Many suspense, thrilling or reasoning are found at the end by summarizing various clues.
The writing style of "The Da Vinci Code" is very unique. One chapter describes the crime scene and the other chapter describes the murderer. The two alternately come, which feels quite good!
"Syntactic cryptographers are really interesting. Maybe you can go to the Louvre during the Christmas holiday."
In just a few chapters, Adam was already attracted by the Paris depicted by Zhang Chu, and he also knew that the ascetic who had a tendency to self-harm turned out to be instructed to find the Holy Grail!
The plot gradually deepens. When the protagonist Yang Xuan and the heroine Sophie cracked their last words and found Mona Lisa's painting, Adam didn't care about thinking. He is now full of his body and mind, looking forward to their adventures and worried that they will be hunted by the French police.
What is the truth about Sophie's family? Is there any secret that the curator has?
He had a premonition of the danger, but why didn’t the director prepare early, such as asking more bodyguards or simply calling the police?
The French police were cheated out of the mountain by using the trick of luring the tiger away, so the huge Louvre was a little quiet.
In the conversation between Yang Xuan and Sophie, knowledge surfaced about various contents.
Adam is not unfamiliar with the content of the tarot card. Anyone who has an ex-girlfriend who is addicted to divination is familiar with these. The five-pointed star style actually symbolizes the goddess!
phi, not pi, this number of 1.618 has an extremely important position in art, and comes from the Fibonacci sequence, which is known as a golden section number.
Nature is everywhere, and it also appears on Leonardo da Vinci's paintings.
English word fans are actually something that many people know. For example, a simple word plas (planet) can get 62 English words of different lengths by arranging and reorganizing these letters!
"It turns out that PS has the third meaning? Not only the postscript, but Princess Sophie, plus the lily logo, it turned out to be the symbol of the Xunshan Secretariat?"
Adam is full of admiration for the author now. He never expected that a simple murder case could print so many things. It was so refreshing to see it!
The phenomenon of multiple meanings of the word is brought to its extreme here. When the entire curtain is slowly unveiled, I feel extremely excited.
In this organization of pagan goddess fanatic worshippers, Leonardo da Vinci once served as the archbishop, and this organization kept ancient secrets.
The readers' moods are coincidental here with the heroine Sophie, almost all of which are questioning ideas!
It sounds ridiculous!
Leonardo da Vinci was just a painter, a scientist with advanced vision, how could he be an archbishop? And how could a Chinese have such a thorough understanding of European history?
Before Adam could react on the main line, the side plot gave him an unparalleled surprise.
Cardinal Selas, a Catholic Union who came from the United States, entered the church under the guidance of the nun of St. Sylpis Church, and then found a hollow floor tiles.
Is it time to see the light of day again that the secret that the Xunshan Secret Society has kept for many years?
But the nun who seemed harmless to the next step was actually a member of the Secretariat, and his identity was hidden very well!
Then this should be a complete trap.
Adam felt that his brain cells were burning wildly, and this was so wonderfully written!
Chapter completed!
