Chapter 524: A Good Door (4/5)
As early as when the fans were queuing, Zhang Chu's family took advantage of the dawn to drive quietly from the west gate of Yanda, and the car with the pass could enter at any time, and there was no restriction on visitors.
Although it is now a holiday, there are still many teachers at Yanda, most of whom are doing experiments, regardless of time.
Several clerks of Hanlinxuan, under the leadership of the store manager Zhong Liangping, arrived at six o'clock in the morning, and are now busy taking out the goods urgently transferred by the Nanhai Publishing Company last night from the warehouse and arranging them one by one.
Zhou Kang and Ye Shumei also brought the staff of Hanlin Culture Media to the scene, they helped to decorate the venue, set up the booth that should be there, maintain order and receive the media, and they were responsible for the task.
Everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, and by the time the fans were let in by the security guards one after another, the preparations had come to an end.
"It looks like there are quite a lot of people, guess how many there will be?" Zhou Kang stood in the bookstore and looked out secretly, really happy in his heart.
The time for this impromptu book launch is urgent, but there are still so many readers coming over, Zhang Chu's popularity is definitely not false, it is completely piled up one work after another!
"I'm a little tormented right now, and I don't know if I should pray for more or fewer people. Zhang Chu was anxious at the thought that he would have to sign hundreds or even thousands of books, and if there were fewer people, he would not have to suffer from it.
But on the day the bookstore opens, of course, I hope that there will be as many customers as possible.
Time gradually passed, and the sun, which had been hiding behind thick clouds, finally showed its little face, and the temperature began to gradually rise.
There was a steady stream of readers coming from the east side door, and more than 30 invited media outlets came.
Zhang Bowen tidied up his collar, this formation is a bit big, knowing that he is here to shoot his son, he is just a foil, but he is still a little nervous.
"Lao Zhang, how do you teach your children, give me some experience, my daughter is in her third year of high school at the beginning of the year, and now she is very worried. Zhou Kang casually went over and chatted, helping to dispel the tense atmosphere.
"Have a Yanjing hukou and are afraid of the college entrance examination?" Zhang Bowen said proudly, "That stinky boy never let us worry about it, probably this is genetic inheritance, others can't learn it!"
Zhou Kang said disdainfully: "You have that gene?"
"Of course there is, and our ancestors are well buried. ”
The two old classmates talked and laughed, and the time finally came to 8:50 in the morning!
At this time, the steps of the bookstore gate were already full of flower baskets of blessings, and Yenching University also sent a small leader to attend the opening ceremony.
There were no superfluous ceremonies, not even firecrackers, which was really not allowed on Yanda's side to pollute the air and easily cause fires.
When the door of the long-closed bookstore opened, Zhang Bowen, who was wearing a white shirt, walked out first, while Zhang Chu and others followed him.
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the opening ceremony of the Hanlin Xuanyan Branch, and of course I know that you are here more for the book launch of Wukong Chuan. ”
As soon as Zhang Bowen's words fell, those readers coaxed one after another: "That's right, it's for Teacher Zhang!"
"I won't say more, I'll give the time to Zhang Chu, let him introduce the book "The Legend of Wukong" to everyone, and wait for the media to finish the question session before the signing event. We ask for your patience. ”
The people standing at the back of the line couldn't help but stand on tiptoe, and at the same time, some of them were shorter and jumped up, they all came for Zhang Chu, but not everyone knew what Zhang Chu looked like.
After Zhang Chu took the microphone, he gestured to the fans and the media with the physical version of "The Legend of Wukong" in his hand, and said simply: "Some people say that "The Legend of Wukong" is subverting Journey to the West, but in fact, I don't feel subversive at all, I think this is the most real Journey to the West." Journey to the West was originally a very tragic story, a story about a group of people on the road who wanted to find the ideals they lost back then, rather than a superficial and mediocre story like beating monsters and telling jokes that we see in many film and television works. ”
"Personally, I don't think the theme of Journey to the West is fighting monsters at all. Although the master and apprentice eventually became Buddhas, there was nothing left after becoming Buddhas. The four people who were alive and blood, with feelings and dreams in the past, were wiped out as soon as they became Buddhas. So sometimes it seems like Journey to the West is a murder that has been orchestrated as a suicide!"
"Everything in "Journey to the West" is very obscure, but "The Legend of Wukong" is very straightforward. Thank you very much for your love, thank you for accepting my invitation, and I hope this book can bring you more different reading experiences. ”
Zhang Chu did not continue to chatter, but bowed.
Hundreds of readers gathered from all over the world early in the morning, and he was deeply touched by this affection!
The readers applauded very cooperatively, and it was a lucky thing to like such a writer who kept putting out excellent works, and it was not bitter to get up early to work hard for the works I liked.
At this time, there was scattered applause from the media, and then a reporter began to ask: "There are a lot of golden sentences in "The Legend of Wukong", which has become the signature of many people on the Internet, so which sentence do you like the most?"
"I know everyone's favorite is Tang Seng's sentence that I can't cover my eyes again this day, when this sentence was first released, many people thought it was Sun Wukong who said it, but I never thought that Tang Seng could say such domineering words. In fact, my personal favorite is the sentence this world, I have been here, I have fought, I have loved deeply, I don't care about the ending. ”
"The Legend of Wukong" has been widely circulated on the Internet, largely because of the help of these classic sentences, which almost hit the hearts of readers, which makes people feel very shocked!
Many people will subconsciously ask where they saw these sentences after seeing them, so the Amway army quickly dispatched to introduce "The Legend of Wukong" to the rest of the netizens.
The previous reporters were quite cooperative, and the questions they asked were all related.
For example, "Why is it so popular" and "Why do you want to write this book", but after the reporter from Sina.com asked the question "Does Wukong Biography have plans to be made into a film and television?", everyone quickly adjusted the direction of the question and collectively asked questions about film and television.
"There are a lot of companies that "The Legend of Wukong" asked, but I don't think I'm in a hurry to shoot for the time being. As for "Farewell My Concubine", in fact, Xu Lao has already written the script and is now looking for actors across the country. ”
Zhang Chu searched his stomach and thought about it, "I just came back from the United States a few days ago, and the crew of "Youth Pi" is already selecting the scene and making all the preparations before filming. ”
"What about "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"? You didn't give a positive reply to the leak of the outline of the Ghost Blowing Lantern before. Will this affect Yida Pictures' film shooting plans?"
"Definitely not, in fact, the story of the Exquisite Ancient City has long been known. As for the outline of the script, we have locked the IP address through the Internet police, and we have now entered the litigation stage. As for the specific results, we will inform you after the results of the lawsuit. ”
The sun's rays are getting stronger and stronger, although the reporters still have many questions to ask, but at this time, Ye Shumei stood up as a person who sang blackface: "Thank you for your questions, but we have limited time." Now please take a break to prepare for the signing event, and immediately broadcast the content of the theme song "Wukong", please be a little quiet. ”
Originally, the reporters still had a lot of questions and wanted to try, but for the sake of "Wukong", they immediately stopped, and at the same time prepared recording tools to listen to what kind of magic this song composed by Zhang Chu and sung by the domestic first-line male singer Chen Muyang has!
