University of California, Berkeley, Berkeley, Berkeley, USA.

At this world institution of higher learning where Chen Zhixue is an honorary professor, students today have a common topic of discussion: Have you watched "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth"?

In a nearby bookstore, "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth" was frantically snapped up by students as soon as it was released.

One copy per person is the current situation of the University of California, Berkeley, Chen Zhixue was originally a fan of many students, and after the last speech, more people liked Chen Zhixue.

So much so that now at the University of California, Berkeley, if you don't have a copy of "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth", you will be laughed at by your classmates.

"What? such a beautiful novel, you haven't read it?"

"It was written by an honorary professor of our school, I participated in his speech, it was a very imaginative writer, I couldn't calm down for a long time after reading this novel, and I was really looking forward to the second "Three-Body Problem". "

Didn't you buy "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth" today? I told you to go early, who doesn't know how popular this novel is now!"

......

That's right, this sci-fi masterpiece of Chen Zhixue's copying of Da Liu has been listed by Random House, and as soon as it is listed, there will be a lot of action.

Once "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth" was released, it was not only sold at the University of California, Berkeley, but also in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and other places.

Huang Xiaoyi, a pen name, already has a lot of fans in the world, and with the promotion of Random House and other dealers, it is difficult not to become popular.

Since the beginning of this year, Random House has achieved very poor results in science fiction publishing, and has been pressed by its rivals Simon and Schuster.

Since the beginning of this year, Simon & Schuster has poached several leading science fiction writers from Random House, making them produce several science fiction novels that sell well.

For this reason, after Random House discovered Chen Zhixue, a rising best-selling novel writer, it tried its best to cooperate with Chen Zhixue.

Whether the work "Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth" is excellent, as the world's largest English publishing house, they naturally have the ability to distinguish.

Therefore, after receiving the manuscript from Genesis Media, Random House decided to go all out to promote the novel.

After dealing with today's affairs, Mr. President, who had just taken office, asked Secretary of State Kissinger next to him, "Do you have any good books lately?"

"Mr. President, I bought a science fiction novel this morning, called "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth", which is highly recommended by Random House, and I read some of it during the lunch break, and I think it is very good. Kissinger said with a smile.

"Oh, "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth"?

"No, it's written by a Chinese on Hong Kong Island, and the two novels "A Clockwork Girl" and "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" should have been heard of by Mr. President, who wrote it. Kissinger replied with a smile.

"I have the novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" at home, my lovely daughter likes to read this novel very much, and I have also read "The Clockwork Girl", I didn't expect that Chinese people can write science fiction novels so well, and now this "Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth" Since even Mr. Kissinger thinks it can, then I want to read it. Mr. President said with a smile.

"Why don't I show you my copy of The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth, Mr. President?" Kissinger said.

"No need, I'll ask the secretary to buy it, it took a lot of time, and you haven't finished reading yours yet. Mr. President outright refused.

He then told his secretary to go to a nearby bookstore to buy books.

Mr. President then chatted with Secretary of State Mr. Kissinger, about a time to pass the time of boredom waiting for the secretary, and the nearest bookstore was only about a kilometer from the presidential palace, which should not take long.

However, little by little, the time passed, and it was not until nearly half an hour that the secretary returned.

"Why did it take so long for you to buy a book?" and what about the book?" asked the secretary directly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. President, I looked for several bookstores, but I couldn't buy this novel, and I asked the person in charge of the bookstore, saying that because it was on the market on the first day today, too many people bought it, and it was already sold out, and it will continue to be stocked tomorrow. The secretary said helplessly.

"What kind of novel is this, and even many bookstores in the neighborhood are sold out?" Mr. President wondered.

Although he had heard the news of some top novelists' new books selling well on the day they were released, this was a novel written by a Chinese person that attracted so many people to read it?"

"No, I just took office, and I don't want to do this kind of thing for public and private purposes, or Mr. Kissinger, you can show me yours first, I see that you still have a lot of official business to deal with, and you shouldn't have time to read. Unable to resist his curiosity, Mr. President finally turned his mind to the secretary of state.

"Okay Mr. President, then I'll go to my office and get the book right now. Kissinger didn't think much of it and immediately went to get the book.

So, all afternoon, Mr. President watched "The Three-Body Problem: Once Upon a Time on Earth", and the more he watched it, the more fascinated he became.

It wasn't until he got off work that he realized that he hadn't seen half of it, so he said to Kissinger: "I'll pay you back tomorrow."

Kissinger nodded speechlessly, he had wanted to go home tonight and continue watching.

Forget it, he's the boss, let him see first, Kissinger can only comfort him like this.

When Mr. President returned home, he continued to watch after dinner.

It wasn't until just after one o'clock in the morning that he finished reading the entire novel.

"It's been a long time since I've stayed up late to read a book, but I didn't expect this novel to be so attractive. Mr. President couldn't help but sigh.

After reading this novel, he is already looking forward to the second part of "The Three-Body Problem".

One night, he actually lost sleep, what is the follow-up plot like?

The next morning, he went to work with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

Everyone thought it was strange, what happened to Mr. President?

, "Mr. President, didn't you sleep last night? There is no work schedule this morning, why don't you go to your room and sleep first?" the secretary asked intimately.

"Well, give this novel back to Mr. Kissinger, and in addition, give you a task to help me contact this Mr. Huang Xiaoyi, I am looking forward to him writing the second story as soon as possible. After the arrangement was made, Mr. President went to a rest room that belonged to him, fell asleep, and after thinking about it all night, his mind was finally quiet, and he could sleep well.
