Chapter 551: Signing Meeting
In the West, Christmas is like the Spring Festival in China, which is a statutory holiday. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The holiday time in the UK generally starts on December 24, and some companies will continue to work until January 1 of the following year.
The school holidays are longer, equivalent to the winter holidays in China, from mid-December to early January of the following year.
There are about half a month to 20 days of vacation, and each school can adjust it by itself.
The book signing of "Little Snow's Great Adventure" was held on December 24, which coincided with this holiday.
This day has time for both children and parents, and the Christmas atmosphere is conducive to increasing book sales.
Lin Zixuan came to the signing meeting, and the publishing house made a lot of arrangements in the hall, in addition to the promotional posters of the book, there were also some magical elements to attract the attention of book fans.
For example, the magic hat and magic wand that appear in the book.
The publishing house also prepared a set of magic robes, which Lin Zixuan wanted to wear to create an atmosphere and enhance interaction with book lovers.
Lin Zixuan thought about it and declined.
He is making movies, and he is not exclusive to entertainment promotion, understanding that this is just a promotional method that can make book fans feel intimate, but at this time his identity is a writer, not an actor.
He felt that writers were better off not being too entertaining.
However, this magic robe was not wasted, Chen Luo brought three classmates over to help, and he was very interested in this magic robe.
Lin Zixuan asked her to put on a magic robe, a magic hat, and a magic wand, pretending to be a little wizard.
The magic robe customized for Lin Zixuan was slightly wide on Chen Luo's body, so he had to tie it up with a belt, which had a different taste.
As soon as the two appeared, it caused quite a stir, and the book fans who were queuing up looked at a little wizard with an oriental face, and many people shouted the name of "Xiaoxue" in English.
Chen Luo has the inheritance of his parents, and he is already slim at a young age.
This was something that Lin Zixuan did not expect in advance.
Chen Luo has always been very low-key in the UK, and her classmates don't know that she has a father who is an actor and a mother who is a host.
The publisher was very satisfied with the feedback of the fans, but it just maintained order and did not come forward to explain.
They thought that this beautiful misunderstanding would cause a news effect, and that the heroine of the book would come to reality from the wizarding world and would be the talk of the book for a long time.
"Do you need to avoid it?" Lin Zixuan asked.
There were not only reporters at the scene, but also people with cameras, apparently wanting to take pictures with the author, and once the photos were circulated, it could have some impact on Chen Luo's life in the UK.
"Uncle, it's okay, I think it's interesting. Chen Luo responded.
Maybe there is a father who is an actor, the little girl is not the kind of shy and introverted character, and she doesn't have much stage fright.
"Then be by my side and keep your distance from the book lovers. Lin Zixuan whispered.
Although this is a formal occasion, there are people from the publishing house to maintain order, and book fans are mainly young people, Lin Zixuan still doesn't want Chen Luo to have an accident, he can't explain it to Chen Daoming.
The British classmates who came with Chen Luo were very excited, and thought it was very interesting that Chen Luo was considered a character in the book.
What Lin Zixuan was worried about did not happen.
It's just a book signing, not a celebrity meet-and-greet, and book lovers aren't that crazy.
Teenagers can tell the difference between the world in books and the real world, and only those under the age of eight would think that a young wizard had come to the Muggle world from a wizard's school.
"Mr. Author, is that Miss Xue?" asked a child curiously.
Lin Zixuan thought about it and nodded, he didn't want to destroy the illusion in this child's heart.
"It's different from what I thought, I thought Miss Xue was the same age as me. The little one was slightly disappointed.
"Just like you will grow up, Xiaoxue will grow up, and she will grow up with you. Lin Zixuan said.
"Can I take a picture with her, then?" the child pleaded.
Looking at the child, who was only six or seven years old, and the parents next to him, after asking Chen Luo's consent, they took a photo, which was regarded as a Christmas gift for the child.
The signing will be from 10 to 12 o'clock, and the two hours will pass quickly.
Although there are still many book lovers waiting in line, Lin Zixuan can only choose to leave, it is not so easy to sign, don't look at just writing blessings and names, your wrists are going to be sore.
What's more, the book signing meeting is only a means of promotion, which has a publicity effect, and cannot rely on the book signing meeting to sell books.
Lin Zixuan invited Chen Luo and her classmates to have a meal, and the three of them contributed a lot.
They were all young people and easy to communicate with their peers, and Chen became the most popular figure at the book signing, chatting with many children and taking photos, answering all kinds of questions about magic.
It was a novel experience for her.
Lin Zixuan looked at this little girl, if it weren't for her age, Chen Luo would be the right person for the role of Xiaoxue in the movie.
Especially with today's misunderstanding, Chen Luo inadvertently won the recognition of book fans, but if you think about it, Chen Daoming obviously doesn't want his daughter to enter the showbiz as an actor.
This is similar to Lin Zixuan's thoughts, the more he understands this circle, the less he wants his children to come in.
Unless you can't get along in other industries, or you're particularly interested in this industry.
Tomorrow is Christmas, and in the afternoon Lin Zixuan will attend a book club held by a book club.
If it is a book lover who comes to the book signing today, then the book lover's club is a gathering place for loyal book lovers, or rather, die-hard fans.
In the West, book clubs are very common, which are small groups of readers who love the work of a particular writer organized by a publishing house or spontaneously.
They meet regularly to read and discuss novels, share their experiences, and advocate for writers' obligations.
The author's fan club is similar to the celebrity fan club, but it focuses more on spiritual communication.
Lin Zixuan wants to participate in a large-scale club about "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure" organized by the publishing house, and this book fan club is composed of dozens of people.
After all, he was a foreign writer and did not have much influence in the UK.
The publisher took out the letters from those readers who studied and worked in London and organized them into clubs.
Lin Zixuan prepared a small gift for those book lovers, which was a signed Christmas card, which was not printed with Santa Claus, but various characters in the book, which were customized by the publishing house.
It can be seen that foreign publishing houses pay special attention to the promotion of books and the interaction with book lovers.
"There is a book club held by a book lover club tomorrow afternoon, do you want to participate?" Lin Zixuan invited.
The three of them loved "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure", and Lin Zixuan gave them a set of signed books and character greeting cards, and they were quite excited and satisfied with this experience. (To be continued.) )
