Chapter 563: Showing Off (Three More Requests for Subscription)
"Dad, Brother Zhang Chu seems to be very popular on Douyin, look at this video. ”
Zhou Kang's daughter Zhou Chenxin is in high school, and her favorite thing in her spare time is to brush Kuaishou with her friends, but after Douyin came out, she switched to Douyin.
She didn't expect to see so many comments after opening the link shared by her classmates.
"I didn't listen well in class, and I was watching these things. If the teacher gives you the phone, I won't buy you a new one!" Zhou Kang made a strict father and directly took his daughter's mobile phone.
He clicked on it and immediately found this incomparably cruel contrast!
Although I don't know who the two writers on the stage are, I definitely give the deepest sympathy, which is simply humiliating.
"This guy is running out to make trouble again, and he really can't be idle. ”
Zhou Kang said to himself, completely forgetting what he had said about Zhang Chu as an otaku before.
Zhou Chenxin held her cheeks, and she asked: "Dad, when will Brother Zhang Chu's comic book be published?" Our classmates all like to read the rabbit that year, and the teacher is also recommending it!"
"What do you kids watch after school, we ...... back then?"
"Stop, stop. It's not that you don't know that most of the books you publish are read by students, and you still look down on the student party?" Zhou Chenxin was very dissatisfied, she just came back to inquire about the news, "Just tell me the specific time!"
"Recently, I will be serialized in a magazine, and I will not publish a single book for the time being. If you have the heart, please help promote "Smart Comics", our company acquired it. ”
Zhou Chenxin's eyes widened, spit the gum in her mouth into the trash can, and said in surprise: "Dad, your company is really bigger and stronger, next time, why don't you buy the animation company directly?"
"If you want to be beautiful, anime is so expensive, we can't play it. You're about to take the college entrance examination, and you're still reading these things, and you're going to make up for it in the afternoon, what does the math teacher say? Is the college entrance examination still saved?"
"I'm going back to my room to read a book......"
Zhou Kang was very relieved to look at his daughter's back when she turned around, this child has finally grown up and knows how to read books consciously.
After sending his daughter away, Zhou Kang dialed Zhang Chu's phone and prepared to go to comfort the guy who caused trouble.
……
At the book fair, he signed from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., and Zhang Chu's entire right hand was almost crippled.
Not to mention driving, it was a little difficult to even hold a pen, and I couldn't remember how many people had signed, what was in front of me.
There was even a girl who put her arm on the table and wanted him to get a tattoo after signing it, and this request was met by Zhang Chu!
"Can you drive home in this state now?" Gu Xinxue said worriedly, the steering wheel was probably unstable.
"Of course not, I'd better find a substitute driver. ”
Zhang Chu is only glad that he is not a writer who lives in ancient times, if he relies on writing to make a living, then this is already half of the waste, fortunately, he is typing and typing the keyboard.
got on the thief ship, and now he doesn't want to pay attention to Gu Xinxue very much, and even hates the Nanhai Publishing Company, which is too hard to exploit.
Gu Xinxue showed a smile: "I am the best substitute driver, you helped us sign so many books, I will also invite you to have a meal, and after sending you home, I will take a taxi back to the hotel." ”
"I'm afraid it's a Hongmen banquet, and I'm a little afraid to go. You must want to step on the point when you send me home, Gu Editor, you are really black, this year's signing quota has been used up, please hurry up next year!"
"How can it be a Hongmen banquet, it's a thanksgiving banquet, just eat near your home, you say the location. ”
Zhang Chu's eyes rolled, although there are no Michelin restaurants in Yanjing, some expensive restaurants are not inferior to Michelin in terms of service and dishes.
I am too tired today, so I have to make Gu Xinxue's wallet bleed!
So he reluctantly accepted the apology request and said, "Then let's go eat new Japanese food, you set up a navigation, on the first floor of the Marriott Hotel on Jianguo Road." ”
Gu Xinxue's heart trembled twice, and he knew with his toes that Zhang Chu would definitely have to choose the expensive one this time, and he began to feel sorry for his wallet.
In order to save money, Lao Gu mercilessly abandoned several of his colleagues and drove away in Zhang Chu's car.
In the passenger seat, Zhang Chu gently moved his wrist, and it happened that Zhou Kang called at this time.
"Zhang Chu, you are now a Douyin celebrity, congratulations!"
"What are you talking about? I've always been an internet celebrity. ”
Zhou Kang was choked by this shameless reply, but fortunately reacted instantly: "It's the matter that you snatched away the audience and reporters of the other two writers' salon exchange meetings." ”
This time, it was really Zhang Chu's turn to be puzzled, "I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense! I've never done this kind of hate-pulling thing." ”
"Just today, you went to the book fair to do a book signing, right? They were holding a salon at the time, and as soon as the radio was broadcast, they pulled all the people away. I've shared the video on your WeChat, so take a look for yourself. Now those two probably hate you to death. ”
Zhang Chu's facial features almost became embarrassed, and it sounded like it was indeed his own pot!
Who knew it would turn out like this?
The culprit is obviously Gu Xinxue, who is driving next to him, if he hadn't been deceived by him, he would have done this kind of thing?
The most important thing in the literary circle is face, and now Zhang Chu has made those two writers have no face to save in front of everyone, and they are almost the public enemies of the literary circle.
Since this kind of thing can happen to Ah Bing and Wu Qi, it can happen to other writers!
What if Zhang Chu will bump into himself one day if he does another signing?
When the time comes, won't he also be ridiculed by netizens? Those writers in the literary circle have gradually become hostile to Zhang Chusheng, even if this is not his intention.
"Alas, both of them should also hate me, but will not give them any chance of revenge. ”
"Hopefully, it will be troublesome for them to unite a group of people to criticize you at that time. Zhou Kang said worriedly.
Previously, Zhang Chu and those people in the literary circle were also regarded as well water, and "Youth Pi" won the Booker Prize in the United Kingdom did make domestic writers a little uncomfortable, but everyone still worked together to ignore this work in all awards!
A work that has been praised in the English-speaking world has only won one essay award in its own country, which I am afraid few people want to believe.
Zhou Kang only hopes that this accident will not affect Zhang Chu's follow-up works, although the influence that these writers can exert is relatively limited, but one more enemy is a trouble after all.
After Zhang Chu hung up the phone, he resolutely made up his mind to order two more dishes tonight to vent his hatred!
