Chapter 44: Buying Books and Discoveries

Stanley sat there, in a very unhappy mood, this sentence is so disgusting, should that boy be honestly framed by his supervisor, and then lose his job, or even leave the media industry?

So who will pay him for all this effort?

Judges? ****! He cursed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Thinking of Xu An's uncomfortable expression when he was taken away, Stanley had a feeling of sympathy, and he could understand that the reason why the boy was uncomfortable was not because he regretted what he had done, but because he was sad that he had made his family and friends sad.

Thinking of himself, his perverted boss, and his heavy family burden, Stanley sighed deeply.

Thinking about it like this, until the end of the second trial, he was still a little absent-minded, and as for the content of the trial just now, he didn't listen to it at all, but he thought that it was nothing more than the bad guys being punished and the good guys being protected.

But what is a bad guy and what is a good guy?

Is the law necessarily correct?

It wasn't until the courtroom was empty again that Stanley woke up, shook his head self-deprecatingly, and hurried to the back to find the trial record, the work had to go on, didn't it?

By the time he left the district courthouse, it was already past ten o'clock, and Stanley was driving his old Ford sedan in the parking lot, slowly crawling forward with the traffic, and the road traffic in Manhattan was so congested that there was hardly a time when it was not congested except late at night.

Stanley looked at the long queue in front of him, and patted the steering wheel depressedly, knowing that he would not drive directly from home to the courthouse in order to save time, and it was faster to take the subway in this kind of road condition.

Annoyedly tugging at his tie, he turned on the old radio in the car, listening to the prickly music, Stanley turned it off again in annoyance, and the congestion on the road was not known when it would end, he looked around boredly, and his eyes were quickly attracted by a shop on the side of the road.

In fact, many drivers in traffic jams are attracted: there is a long queue in front of the store, looking like they are snapping up something good.

Stanley looked up: Moosen Book House? It's a bookstore, and it looks like there's been another bestseller on the market recently, he thought so, and then swept his eyes across the bookstore's window and saw a promotional poster, the small print couldn't be seen, but the big words in the title of the book were very conspicuous: "Lovely Bones"!

In fact, this poster is very interesting, Stanley spent a lot of brain effort on it, the blue poster is occupied by Lance's head two-thirds of the space, and then the cover of the book and the title of the book.

When using a person's avatar as a poster, you generally have to choose a portrait of a celebrity, at least so that passers-by will recognize it after seeing it, but Stanley does the opposite, although Lance has been very popular in the media recently, ordinary people can't remember his face at all, so people will be surprised when they pass by the poster: Hey, who is this guy? How did I not know him?

So the poster also comes with some introduction to Reims!

Except for the title of the book, the first family trauma novel in the United States, Jim Allen strongly recommends these words, there is not a single word about the author himself!

In fact, except for the words Xu An can be seen on the page pattern, there is nothing!

Those who don't know think that this book was written by Lance!

Stanley doesn't care about this, compared to Lance, Xu An doesn't have any topicality at all, and no one will pay attention to such an ordinary author who has no story, so why waste energy on him?

Stanley naturally saw Lance's avatar, he felt a little familiar, but he didn't care, he was a reporter, Lance had been swiping the screen in the press industry recently, and there were really few people in the news industry who didn't look at him well.

For Lance, Stanley is both sympathetic and admired, he is also a father and husband, it is completely conceivable how much Lance suffered, he even thought that if the same thing happened to him, he would definitely commit suicide, because of this, he admired Lance even more for being able to get out of his grief and start over!

In the same way, he was interested in the book "Lovely Bones".

Stanley poked his head out of the window and looked ahead, the car was endless, and there was no sign of progress, it seemed that there was an accident ahead, and it would probably be a long time jam, so he rolled up the window, turned off the car, and got out of the car and walked to the bookstore.

There was a queue at the entrance of the bookstore, but the Mowson Book House was a large bookstore chain, and the Manhattan branch was also very large, so the book was expected to sell well, and there was a lot of stock, so although the line was long, it was moving quickly.

Stanley was at the end of the line, waiting while keeping an eye on his car in case the traffic police came to post the order.

The Mussen Book House was well staffed and stocked, and the line moved quickly, but during Stanley's queue, people came one after another, so the line did not decrease.

Soon, Stanley walked into the bookstore and saw the row full of "Lovely Bones" on the most prominent shelf, and he didn't hesitate to walk over and get a copy, then pay and leave.

After leaving the bookstore, he found that the traffic police were riding a motorcycle through the gap in the vehicle, so he hurried a few steps and returned to the car before he was caught.

The book was described by Lance as if it had its own magic, so Stanley, like many others, wanted to see what magic it had that could make such a sad person feel relieved.

But before opening the book, he was first attracted by the author's name at the bottom of the page:

Xu An?!

It's a Chinese name, and it's not as easy to repeat as an American name, especially in the United States, and Stanley suddenly thought of the first trial he had attended in the morning, his former colleague.

Coincidental?

Thinking of this, Stanley suddenly remembered something, and he quickly looked up at the poster in the bookstore window, where Lance's calm face was watching every passerby with sad eyes.

At the scene of the trial, in the auditorium, Stanley felt an electric current rise from his tail vertebrae, which made him numb and goosebumps.

It's a feeling of excitement!

That's right, he remembered that among those sitting in the auditorium was Lance!

Reims, Xu An......

Obviously, the boy who was a former intern reporter at the New York Times, who was framed for attacking his supervisor and sentenced to 8 months in prison by a judge, is the author of this new bestseller, Xu An!

This discovery made Stanley inexplicably excited, and in an instant, countless thoughts passed through his mind.

The marketing case of "Lovely Bones" is very special, there is no original author at all, the publication is very fast, and Lance is quick and effective through the media, and he realizes that these should be the planning of the publishing company.

Look at the queue in front of the bookstore, the publishing company has clearly succeeded, but so far no one has noticed the author of the book!

In just a few minutes, Stanley thought of a lot of things, and he realized that he might have discovered a small piece of news.

Of course, whether this is news or not, the degree of attention that the news has attracted depends on the quality of the book in his hand, if the book is really as good as Lance said in the media, Stanley is confident that it will be unearthed into a big news!
