In June, at the beginning of summer, a breeze blows through Times Square in New York City, and a group of people gather in Times Square in the early morning.

A signing desk set up by the Drama Bookstore, where Penguin Press paid for Lester's personal book signing, was set up in a wide area outside the mall.

The mall is surrounded by book posters of "The True Story of Agan", which is different from the black and red covers of "Twilight", and the white book covers attract the attention of the crowd below.

In order to publish and sell "Forrest Gump", Penguin Press publicized the emotional card for the Ah Gan in the book, and played a brief introduction: Forrest Gump is a mentally handicapped and idiot in the eyes of ordinary people, but his nature is kind and simple, coupled with his talent, he has become a college American football star, a Vietnam War hero, a world-class table tennis player, a wrestler, a chess master and a business tycoon, and was received by President Kennedy and awarded by President Johnson.

Forrest Gump's "vigorous" legendary life, which seems absurd, is actually a microcosm of the history and society of the United States from the 50s to the 70s of the 20th century.

As soon as the introduction of the book was typed, it was reported in the newspapers, among which the author of "The Twilight Zone" will appear in the "Ah Gan True Story" fan signing meeting is the most eye-catching, and people came to the signing table at six o'clock in the morning to wait.

Not only Twilight fans, but also reporters with cameras and microphones in the crowd, walking around, before Leicester arrived, they began to interview the people.

Will Smith has become a die-hard fan of the author since he watched "Twilight", and this signing party was able to meet the author's deity, from San Francisco and his partner Leah came here to wait for the author, expecting to get Lester's autograph, and when he came here, he saw that many people came one after another, all of them seemed to be to see the author's deity and get his autograph.

"There are so many people. ”

Feeling the number of people around him increasing, Leah complained a little to Will Smith;

"That's also for Lestrore, don't you think it's something to be proud of when an idol has so many fans. Will Smith said with some dancing;

Leah looked at his friend's excited expression a little helplessly, this time he came here with his friend, mainly because the story of "The True Story of Ah Gan" attracted him, and on this Thursday and Friday working days, he specially asked for leave to come here, and was able to get the hardcover version of the book "The True Story of Ah Gan" signed by the author.

Are you a fan of the author?

Will Smith was looking at the gradually more and more people, a microphone marking the New York Times was mentioned in front of him, which made him stunned, and when he turned his head, he saw the young reporter looking at him with the microphone, and the camera behind him was facing him with a camera, looking at the New York Times logo microphone, his eyes lit up, and he said with a little excitement: "Yes, I'm a fan of Lesterore, and I like his "Twilight" very much." ”

Dancing with his hands and his voice in a hurried tone like a dead powder, Leah covered his face and thought: "God, this is not my friend, I must have read it wrong, how did the steady Will Smith change." ”

Kiviseld took the microphone and looked at the excited young man in front of him, a little surprised by the author's influence, he didn't want to come here to interview a rookie author, but the editor-in-chief of the New York Times personally ordered two reporters to come over, and Dunreeve, who was traveling with him, was weaving through the crowd to ask questions from fans who came here to ask for autographs and books.

The popularity of the author Lestrore is about to catch up with the popularity of the stars, and looking at the growing crowd, Ki Viseld is a little incredible. The surrounding people also came to this side because of the gathering of people here.

Didi!

The sound of several cars sounding behind him, Kiviseld subconsciously looked over, and saw a dozen cars parked on the road in the parking lot outside the mall, and then a group of middle-aged men in white-collar clothes came down, apparently also coming for the signing meeting.

Don't they have to go to work?

Kiviseld is a little incomprehensible, you must know that today is Friday, it is a working day, although the working time is nine o'clock, but looking at this fan formation, it is estimated that it will not end until the afternoon.

Headlines," Ki Viselde suddenly thought of something, and with some excitement, ordered the person with the camera to take pictures.

The propaganda policy of "Ah Gan Zheng", Penguin Press did a very good job, so that Leicester's book entered the circle of white-collar workers for the first time, the content in it is written in an absurd style, it will not be boring to read, and many of the content are stories from the 50s to 70s of the 20th century, which are the highlights that white-collar workers like to read

"There are so many people, hurry up and queue up, otherwise you will be late to the back of the queue and you will be late for work." ”

A male white-collar worker looked at the increase in the number of people in the field and said anxiously;

Let's go!" a group of white-collar workers hurriedly squeezed towards the front.

In the temporarily rented office of the mall, there is a group of people looking at the increasing crowd below through the floor-to-ceiling windows, according to the current increase in the number of people, at least there are 20,000 people on the scene, especially the number is still increasing.

There were local police officers running on the side of the road to maintain order, and it looked like Penguin Publishing didn't expect that there would be so many book lovers coming over to hold a Leicester fan signing on Friday's working day, and they ran to personally invite them to maintain order.

"You're sure I'm going to go down. ”

Looking at the increasing number of people, and some of the passers-by who were attracted to it, Lester said to Emmanuel with a blank gaze and a numb scalp;

The fanbase, which was only seen on the occasion of an actor in his previous life, is now placed on him, which makes Lester in a trance.

Seeing Lester's strange expression, he mistakenly thought that Lester was nervous, and Emmanuel said encouragingly, "Lester, considering that there will be a lot of people, when you are tired, the organizer will end the book signing, and you don't want to disappoint the fans!"

You're right!

Lester, who came back to his senses, was speechless, and said helplessly;

Here we go!

When the number of people in the audience reached 30,000 and no one came back, the lively host invited by Penguin Press walked up to the signing table.

Lester chokes with Emmanuel behind the scenes of the Penguin Press and the owner of the Drama Bookstore.

Listening to the host laughing at the crowd in the audience, Lester's originally complicated mood gradually calmed down, and he was looking forward to meeting them.

At the signing stage, the host humorously said the meeting, and shouted under the expectant gaze of the audience: "Please invite our favorite author of "Twilight": Mr. Lestrore. ”

Hearing his name called, Lester put sunglasses on his eyes, which was the organizer's request for Lester to remain mysterious before going on stage, and then surprise the fans.

Come on, you're the best.

Emmanuel gave Lester encouragement, and Lester glared at him and followed them to the signing table.
