Chapter 942: Book Lovers Meeting
"Chairman, I'm so sorry, I didn't arrange it thoughtfully, so I frightened you!"
Jing Xiagang was sweating all over his head, and the book fans were too enthusiastic, beyond his expectations, but he must not offend Liu Lang!
"Phew, these guys are so enthusiastic, Inoshita-kun, it means you're doing a good job! You'll have to keep up the good work and get the Transformers comic out to this extent!"
Liu Lang's words reassured Jing Xiagang: This chairman is really clever in speaking.
Liu Lang will not be angry, it is a good thing that the fans are so enthusiastic, it proves that "Slam Dunk" is really very popular in the island country, but the enthusiasm of the book fans in the island country is still beyond his imagination, he did not encounter this situation when he was in the United States, of course, the fans are also very crazy when Adeis and other singers attend the ceremony, and they all need police forces to maintain order.
Liu Lang and his entourage first went to the lounge, and after about half an hour, the library was already full, and at this time, the director of the library also came to the back, who was also a fan of "Slam Dunk", and took a group photo with Liu Lang.
At half past nine in the morning, the book fan meeting officially began, and Liu Lang, Jing Xiagang, Shao Ming, and Lu Xiaoguang walked onto the stage with the host's shouts.
"Let us once again welcome with a round of applause to Jimmy Liu, a young genius from China, .........!"
The library of more than 500 people was full, and there was applause when they saw everyone appearing, but the applause was not too warm, because many people were skeptical about Liu Lang's identity.
Tsuyoshi Inu was the first to speak, he first thanked the book fans, and kept bowing as he spoke, he was really excited, and there was a slight tremor in his words, because this manga changed his fate and allowed him to realize his dream.
"All of you here are my benefactors, but my greatest benefactor is the esteemed Chairman Jimmy, a young genius from China, whose imagination has unbridled to create an immortal comic story......... I know that everyone has a lot of doubts, so let Mr. Chairman personally explain it to you!"
Jing Gang smiled and handed the microphone to Liu Lang.
Under everyone's gaze, Liu Lang took the microphone and walked to the edge of the rostrum.
"Thank you!"
Liu Lang opened with a standard sentence in Japanese, which immediately attracted warm applause, and when the applause ended, Liu Lang began his speech in proficient Japanese.
Everyone is a little silly, this guy is Chinese? Why is Japanese so good, and it is a standard Tokyo accent, that is, the official language, even outsiders can't speak to this extent, right?
No, even if he is Chinese, he must have lived in Tokyo since he was a child, otherwise it would be impossible for him to speak Japanese fluently.
"I know people are skeptical of me as an author, and think I can't create this comic......... Two years ago, I was living in the United States, and I really liked to watch NBA basketball games, and I was particularly impressed by the stars of Jordan, Johnson, and Bird, who jumped so high that their heads could touch the basket and their three-point shots were also amazing, and it was a real pleasure to watch them play, and I think why can't we Asians do this?
Most of the people in the NBA are black, and the physical fitness of black people is not comparable to us Asians, so what should I do? So I thought of comics, I can create comics to fulfill my dreams, and that's why I created Slam Dunk.
At the same time, I also have another dream, that is, to use this comic to inspire young people to play basketball, "Slam Dunk" in our China sales up to 10 million copies a year, many young people because of this comic to like basketball, for this reason our country has also built a lot of basketball courts, countless young people are holding basketball and wearing Nike shoes on the basketball court, maybe one of them will become the first Asian player to land in the NBA in the future, if that's the case, my comic has achieved its goal!"
A child who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, but was actually only ten years old, could say such a magnificent word, which made the people present a little impressed.
Liu Lang continued.
"Of course, I didn't expect this manga to be so popular here, I know that the manga business of the island country is doing very well, and it is first-class all over the world, and I like the two manga "Saint Seiya" and "Aralei" very much, so I am very proud and honored to be popular with everyone, and I would like to express my most sincere thanks to all the fans, thank you!"
Liu Lang bowed slightly to everyone.
"Jimmy, I'd like to ask if you translated the names of places and people in this comic?"
"I would like to ask where you learned your Japanese?"
Many people stood up and raised their hands and shouted at this time, they had too many questions in their hearts.
"Everyone, be quiet, if you have questions, you have to come one by one, don't ask them together!"
The host shouted loudly from the sidelines.
"Okay, okay, don't mess around, I'm just standing here, ask any questions one by one, I promise to give you a satisfactory reply!"
The scene gradually fell silent.
"Someone just asked me where I learned Japanese, and some people may not believe my answer, but what I said is absolutely true, that is, I learned it at home with a Japanese dictionary when I was a child, and later chatted with some local Japanese expatriates in the United States, and slowly mastered Japanese!"
This answer "blew up" all of a sudden, and it was as simple as that?
"In fact, I don't just know Japanese, but I also know English, German, and Russian, so if anyone here knows this language, you can test it on the spot!"
As soon as Liu Lang's words fell, a female student in the front row stood up and asked a question in English, but Liu Lang spoke pure British English and stunned the other party.
Then a German student also stood up, and Liu Lang's standard German made the other party sigh at it, but it seemed that there were no students studying Russian here.
Everyone is convinced, not to mention anything else, Liu Lang is enough to be called a genius in terms of language alone, since everyone has decided that he is a genius, the genius's actions are not something that ordinary people can figure out, and it is reasonable for him to create "Slam Dunk".
Next, Liu Lang began to answer everyone's questions, Liu Lang was always answered, and he was humorous, and the scene was very active.
The book club lasted for more than an hour, and these college students were all impressed by Liu Lang's eloquence and reaction, people have to die more than people, how can a ten-year-old be so good for their college students!
