Chapter 80,
On the first Saturday of May 2002, the Primary School Hall arranged an unprecedented signing session for Chen Xueqian.
The name of this book signing is to thank the book lovers.
Just last week, the sales of "Spring Things 2" miraculously exceeded 20 copies. This achievement is the first time in the history of light novels. Naturally, the Shogakukan will be grandly awaited!
The location of the book signing was chosen at Kinokuniya Shinjuku, one of the largest bookstores in Japan.
On this morning, Chen Xueqian came to the signing site early, and there were countless enthusiastic book lovers earlier than him.
When Chen Xueqian's car arrived, book lovers had already formed a long line at the entrance.
Chen Xueqian did not let the driver drive the car directly to the signing site, but stopped at the end of the line, Chen Xueqian walked all the way, and greeted every book friend in a friendly way. And his move quickly attracted the favor of book fans. Countless people cheered.
But even when the love was extremely high, these book fans did not mess up the order of the team. The Japanese concept of order is indeed powerful and terrifying.
After walking for three minutes, Chen Xueqian finally came to the signing office. Instead of sitting down, he turned around and bowed to the crowd of book lovers. The fans in the audience cheered again, and even some female fans cried with joy.
In this series of actions, Chen Xueqian not only has sincere gratitude to this group of people for supporting him as always, but also has the scheming to package his image. People, it's always hard to be pure!
The signing meeting is an extremely boring thing, in addition to constantly smiling, constantly signing, and constantly responding to the enthusiastic confessions of some book lovers.
After lasting for nearly an hour, Chen Xueqian felt a burst of irritability. He stretched out his hand to signal a slight pause in the signing, stood up, moved slightly, took a sip of water, and sat down again.
This time for the signing, Bai Feifei wanted to keep an eye on the stock market and did not follow. The elementary school hall arranged two female staff members to keep wiping sweat on his forehead.
Japan has already begun to warm up in May. Signing in and sweating is also a rare life experience, Chen Xueqian thought of it with joy.
Looking at the team in front of him, who still couldn't see the end at a glance, Chen Xueqian knew that there was a long way to go today. I couldn't help but speed up a little more.
Just when Chen Xueqian was immersed in autographing, Cui Xiuying and her teammate Marina Takahashi, who had met on TV Asahi yesterday, also appeared at the scene.
Choi so-young herself is Korean, and she has no interest in Japanese novels and even comics, so she accompanied her teammates to the signing site at this time, looking at the old elder's long line, and couldn't help but be secretly speechless.
"Sister, can the author of the novel have so many fans?" Cui Xiuying compared the popularity of her own group, and couldn't help but be discouraged.
Marina Takahashi laughed when she heard this: "Don't pantothenic, in fact, not all novelists have such popularity." Many new writers can't even support themselves, just like us singers! ”
Cui Xiuying couldn't help but nod after listening to her teammates' explanations, looking at the long line, and secretly cheering herself up in her heart.
"One day you will have to have such popularity, so many fans, come on Choi so-young!"
After following the long line, Cui Xiuying couldn't help but ask curiously: "Sister, what is so amazing about this author, I'm almost curious to death, is he a handsome guy?" ”
Marina Takahashi forced a smile, but she didn't answer the other party.
Cui Xiuying couldn't help jumping anxiously. It's just that this teammate was not moved at all, and she was a little helpless for a while.
"Is the author a man?" Choi so-young began to knock on the side.
Marina Takahashi thought for a while and replied, "It's a man, but it's not a handsome guy!" ”
"Huh? Ain't handsome! What's so amazing about that uncle? Hearing that the other party was not a handsome guy, Cui Xiuying's interest plummeted. The speed of turning your face is comparable to that of a book.
Marina Takahashi was amused for a while, and she couldn't hate the naughty character of her teammate.
The team moved slowly, and just as the two women had been talking in a whisper, Cui Xiuying suddenly pulled her teammates, quietly pointed to a person not far from them, and whispered: "Sister, look at that person, isn't it a little strange?" On such a hot day, I still wear a sweatshirt and a hat and mask. ”
Hearing this, Marina Takahashi couldn't help but glance at the person in front of her, and it just so happened that the person seemed to feel her gaze, and when she turned around, a pair of red eyes met Marina Takahashi.
Takahashi hurriedly lowered his head, and his heart jumped: "What a terrifying look!" ”
Cui Xiuying, who was on the side, couldn't help but look at herself a little strangely when she saw that her teammates didn't answer. I happened to see the horror that flashed on Marina Takahashi's face.
"What's wrong?" Xiuying asked suspiciously.
Marina Takahashi didn't feel good talking about others behind her back, and that person was terrible to look at, so she shook her head decisively.
"It's okay, let's not talk about this, in fact, you saw this author yesterday!"
Cui Xiuying was suddenly diverted and began to think hard, yesterday Takahashi Marina said that they had already met the author of the novel, but she thought about it for a long time and didn't expect that anyone she had met in one day could match the novelist.
It's just that when she asks the other party, her teammates refuse to tell her, and only show a strange and mysterious smile.
She even asked about the chefs she had met at dinner yesterday, but all of them were denied.
This made Xiuying even more curious, but she couldn't help but wonder if her teammates were deliberately playing tricks on her.
Cui Xiuying racked her brains to think about various possibilities, and suddenly she shouted in disbelief: "Could it be him?" ”
Marina Takahashi looked at her in the same surprise, could it be that the other party really guessed it?
Just when Marina Takahashi was shocked, Cui Xiuying slapped her palms and said, "Could it be that the senior who made things difficult for us?" Is this the right thing for us? ”
Marina Takahashi shook her head helplessly, the other party even made such a ridiculous guess, but ignored the real author. I have to say: "Chen Xueqian's age is indeed extremely deceptive!" ”
Marina Takahashi shook her head again, and Cui Xiuying suddenly wailed, "What? Who else was there yesterday besides these people I guessed? It can't be that bastard, right? ”
Cui Xiuying shouted speechlessly, and Marina Takahashi opened her mouth. I was a little speechless for a while, and finally guessed correctly, but the other party denied it himself.
However, thinking of Cui Xiuying and Chen Xueqian's unhappy quarrel yesterday, it seems that it is better not to sue her at this time.
The queue for autographs was very long, and the speed of moving forward was not too fast. After queuing for an hour, Cui Xiuying and the two could finally see the author of the signing from a distance.
It's just that the other party seems to keep his head down, and occasionally raise his head, and two people will quickly help him wipe his sweat. I couldn't see his face at all.
Cui Xiuying looked anxious and wanted to see the other party's appearance, but she couldn't do anything. At this time, she didn't ask Marina Takahashi anymore.
As the flow of people continued to move forward, Cui Xiuying got closer and closer to the signing table, she couldn't help but feel suspicious in her heart when she looked at the other party's figure, and always felt that something seemed to be wrong.
And the figure seemed faintly familiar, and she somewhat believed that the other party had really met with her yesterday. It's just that she guessed so many people, and none of them were right, so who was the other party? She grew more and more curious.
In fact, for a moment, she had thought that this person's body shape was very similar to the nasty ghost yesterday, but in an instant, she overturned this possibility by herself!
Why did she take the initiative to find Chen Xueqian yesterday? It's because she rarely met a peer recently. Thought there would be a common topic!
How can a child about her age be a novelist?
It's not that she hasn't heard of young stars, but those are all actors and singers. She really hadn't heard of a writer.
It's just that after she ruled out the truth, the remaining wrong candidates naturally couldn't match Chen Xueqian. Cui Xiuying couldn't help but feel a little irritable for a while, as if a thing was in her head, but she couldn't think about it clearly, and that feeling was extremely uncomfortable.
Finally, the flow of people advanced for a while, Chen Xueqian wiped his sweat with a tissue with a distressed face after signing a name, Chen Xueqian did not dodge the other party's kindness, so he raised his head and let the other party do it.
When the female book fan left the air raid, Cui Xiuying finally saw the other party's face clearly.
Suddenly, Cui Xiuying was stunned and couldn't move!
At this moment, it was as if there was a thunderstorm in her heart, and there was only one voice ringing in her head.
"How could it be him? That's impossible! No way! She couldn't believe this scene at all, and looked at Takahashi almost like a help.
However, the smile on the other party's face, she instantly understood, and Takahashi asked her: "Isn't it amazing!" ”
Cui Xiuying wanted to say at this time, this is not magic, it is nerves!
Just as she was stunned, the crowd continued to move, and the strange person that Cui Xiuying had discovered before had already arrived in front of Chen Xueqian.
