Chapter 1350: Chapter 1125: Breaking into the Zhong Continent Market

This was the first time for the vast majority of Zhong Continent’s people to encounter a Chu Kuang novel.

Before this.

To Zhong Continent people, Chu Kuang was merely “the writer ranked thirteenth on Blue Star’s Writer Influence Chart,” leaving nothing more than a superficial impression.

Now.

Chu Kuang seemed to have kicked off a “World Wave.”

This impression was solidified and deepened.

The charm of Chu Kuang nearly equated with the allure of *Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.*

It was the first time Zhong Continent people became infatuated with a writer from another continent:

“After seeing the recommendations from netizens, I bought a copy of *Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone* out of curiosity, and now I can’t stop reading it. In the words of other netizens: No wonder this Qin Continent writer named Chu Kuang is ranked thirteenth on Blue Star’s Writer Chart!”

“This is frustrating!”

“I wanted to buy a copy to see for myself after being recommended by friends, only to be told that *Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone* is sold out!?”

“Why is it selling so fast?!”

“These lousy bookstores don’t care to stock more copies. I *want* to spend my money, but they won’t let me!”

“I managed to get a copy, but I can’t even keep hold of it. My daughter snatched it away and got completely hooked; she’s totally absorbed, refusing to put it down…”

“Is this novel really that good?”

“It’s children’s literature—must be childish, right?”

“Why would I lie? It’s not your typical children’s literature. There’s a touching segment where the protagonist accidentally discovers the Mirror of Erised, seeing his long-lost parents reflected back at him. Every day, he sits in front of the mirror, hoping to reunite with them again. But Professor Albus Dumbledore tells him: The happiest person in the world is the one who sees their true self in the mirror. The mirror shows us what we desire most in our hearts, yet it doesn’t provide real knowledge or truth. Humanity often wastes life pursuing illusions in the mirror, sometimes even descending into madness because of it. However, one cannot live in dreams—do not rely on fantasies to forfeit real life. This contains profound truths worth reflecting on—it’s far beyond just children’s literature.”

“Now I really want to buy a copy.”

“You won’t find it anywhere now!”

“Don’t go to the traditional Zhong Continent bookstores. Search your map to see if new stores have opened nearby. Look for bookstores under foreign brands—you might find surprises! Just keep this tip to yourselves.”

“Huh!?”

Encouraged by hints from netizens, some Zhong Continent people ventured into newer bookstores and actually snagged copies!

Word spreads like wildfire!

Soon.
