New York, inside a delicate apartnt.
Molly was snacking while actively tweeting.
As the most active female book fan on the site and organizer of multiple events,
ever since the last feminist rally, due to the book fans’ daring acts of "stripping",
she had caught the attention of so bigwig.
"This is the ’Hillary Feminist Fund’ sponsorship," Molly rembered a young woman in a suit explaining to her.
"We need to promote feminist ideas among book fans and, when necessary, organize so marches."
Is this just about using the Democrat Party’s inherent political stance and Hillary’s influence to gather votes for Clinton?
Molly, from a middle-class family, was quite familiar with these tactics.
"Haha, with Clinton’s current support rate, they probably won’t be providing funds for long," Molly muttered to herself. "But, the money sure is easy to earn."
Not to ntion the popular show "Anomalies," featuring won who could fly and beat up the male protagonists.
Even HBO’s "Prison Break Special Forces" gained a female audience due to the sexual orientation of the male lead.
In Wang Jian’s new book, "King Arthur," even the Knights of the Round Table and the biggest stakes were won!
Though many male readers were reluctant to admit this.
"But all that industry knowledge cos from male leads; few won care about such things!"
A young brat registered as Leonard was still arguing with her.
Molly scratched her ssy hair, picked a cookie from her bra, and stuffed it in her mouth, pondering how to respond.
Now she had a significant following on Twitter, wielding so influence.
She couldn’t lose this debate to the boy!
Then, a notification on the website caught Molly’s eyes.
"’Harem Boleyn Family,’ ’Female Pope,’ ’My Genius Girl Friend’ to be physically published by Random House in Italy."
"Also, the newly joined mber of the Writers Association, Wang Jian, is confird to announce major news related to feminism at the new book release in Italy."
Hmm?
Molly’s heart leapt with joy.
She promptly copied and pasted this ssage to Leonard.
"How sad for n, Wang’s feminist leaning is so obvious."
"And you still think, like you, Wang is just another foul man who doesn’t understand respect for won?"
After typing this, Molly closed Twitter and continued reading "King Arthur."
"The protagonist is so gentle with the witches, just like a Prince Charming."
Molly had no interest in industrial developnt plots; she skimd through the daily interactions between the male lead and the witches.
Moreover, she imagined herself in the role of the witch, and the male lead?
Of Course, it was Wang Jian!
Over at his computer, Leonard, seeing her reply, was infuriated.
Had he misunderstood Wang?
Was he truly a feminist?
Leonard hesitated, then copied and pasted the dialogue to the mogul who had once sponsored him.
"I’ve t Wang, he’s definitely not a feminist!"
"Besides, in a way, isn’t ’King Arthur’ about won being dependent on a male protagonist?"
"Then why would Wang work so hard to gain favor with won?" asked Leonard, freshly dumped by Goddess and filled with a sense of betrayal.
"Although I don’t understand, my friend once said, a company needs to identify its target custor base."
"Wang isn’t just a writer; he’s also the founder of a company."
"Maybe, we n are more reserved in our support, unlike those female groups."
Leonard stared at the replies, deep in thought.
It seed won had openly supported Wang nurous tis.
"But why would a billionaire have so many crises needing our support?" Leonard murmured in agony.
anwhile, at the Vatican.
Legendary Journalist Woodward walked out from a cardinal’s reception room.
He was quite dissatisfied that even with Mr. Redstone’s connections, he couldn’t et the Pope.
"Does the Catholic Church think they have as strong a pull in the United States as in Europe?"
"How much effort did you all exert to suppress the Boston child molestation case!"
He would have never visited this place, stuck in the Middle Ages if it weren’t for that bestselling author trying to upset the publishing world!
But...
The result was not bad!
Woodward looked at the novels in his hands, his lips curling slightly.
"Female Pope" direly uncovered the Church’s past they wished to stay buried.
"King Arthur" cast the Church as a villain ddling in foreign affairs and burning heretics.
Moreover, Wang Jian’s novels were to be physically published by Random House in Italy?
Woodward had greatly exaggerated Wang Jian’s and the site’s influence among Arican youth.
"Your Eminence, imagine if young Italians got as obsessed with these novels as Arican youths."
"That... would be so damaging to the Church’s interests!"
After the cardinal carefully read the novels, his expression was no longer calm.
Woodward thought back to the cardinal’s expression when he saw "Da Vinci’s Code," still wanting to laugh out loud.
But, Wang Jian and his represented website’s influence had expanded too rapidly.
Now, many writers’ first choice was the website, not publishers.
Even Hollywood giant Universal, under new ownership, was ready to collaborate with them!
He recalled the call from the editor-in-chief of Simon and Schuster, "If this continues, Hollywood giants won’t need to maintain publishing houses."
"The market for compelling IPs will concentrate in the hands of Marvel, DC, just like the comics."
Thinking of the cardinal’s promise, Woodward cheerfully got into the car.
"First, through Disney, Viacom, contact so influential figures in the Democrat Party."
"Next, through the British Royal Family, the Church, connect with the conservatives in the Republican Party."
"Finally, we can initiate a public call to and legislation."
The political forces behind Goldman Sachs, seeing this situation, would likely choose to back down.
"Whether it’s Disney or Viacom to lead on review rights,"
"It’s sothing Mr. Eisner and Mr. Redstone need to discuss."
"Wang," he muttered, "Business and politics are forever inseparable."
"You such a naive fellow, better just go ho and be a bestselling author!"
