Chapter 160: Signing Session (I)
On the morning of August 13th, the long-awaited signing session finally came.
In the apartment, Ye Xiangdong gently kissed Yang Ying'er's forehead while she was asleep, and quietly left.
As soon as he went out, he saw Su Yi leaning on the nanny's car and waving at him.
"Sister Su, good morning." Ye Xiangdong greeted with a smile.
Su Yi didn't reply, but looked at him meaningfully, and said ambiguously: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Dongzi, your complexion is good, you give people a mature atmosphere from the inside out, it seems that you and Yang Ying'er are making rapid progress." ”
"Really? I thought I had always been a mature man. Ye Xiangdong touched his nose and replied narcissistically.
Su Yi smiled, everything was silent, but she secretly remembered it in her heart, I am afraid that this Yang Yinger will be the boss lady in the future.
After the nanny car started, Ye Xiangdong tilted his head and suddenly asked, "Sister Su, you said that I don't know how many people will be in the signing meeting at noon today?" ”
"Don't worry, it's indispensable." Su Yi said confidently.
Ye Xiangdong was a little apprehensive, as early as before, many book friends were quite resentful because of the delay in the upload of the new book "Panlong", and even the movie votes turned to Li Long and Xue Jinxing.
Although "Panlong" has now been uploaded, after all, there are still many former book friends who don't know that if this signing meeting is cold, it will be a major blow to his upcoming movie.
"Forget it, I'll show you something." Looking at Ye Xiangdong's nervous appearance, Su Yi threw the leather bag on his waist to Ye Xiangdong while driving, and explained: "Open it and take a look, there is the answer you want in it." ”
Ye Xiangdong was suspicious and found a bunch of data from his purse. Suddenly.
Originally, both the publishing house and Su Yi had made full preparations for these things.
In order to determine the size of the signing session. Su Yi borrowed Ye Xiangdong's TT writer account to hold a vote in An Jiajun and the book friend group, wanting to see how many people would come.
Because the time has already been set. It's noon on Thursday, when most people are working or in class, so they don't have time to attend the signing session.
Judging from the situation at that time, it is estimated that one or two hundred people will be killed, and there will be no more.
But the effect of the vote was beyond imagination, she didn't expect so many people to respond, this data is officially recognized, there are more than 5,000 people!
If you follow the publisher's specifications. 500 people have to hold at least 6 signing meetings at a time, and even if the publishing house is willing to add money, Su Yi will not agree, after all, "Yanjing Meets Seattle" is about to be released, and there are still a lot of trivial things waiting for Ye Xiangdong, where is there time to take care of this signing meeting.
After the last discussion, Su Yi and the publishing house reached a consensus to raise the specification of the signing meeting to 1,000 people. That is, two signing sessions will be held, one at noon and one in the afternoon.
Of the 1,000 book friends, 992 were drawn from the voting book friend group, and the remaining eight were fixed places. left the new book "Panlong" to the eight silver alliance and gold alliance who rewarded more than 10,000 yuan.
Seeing these materials, Ye Xiangdong was completely relieved.
The signing session was held on the first floor of the TT Building, early in the morning. The plaza outside the TT building is lined with a large number of book lovers, and several bookstores in the neighborhood prop up an extra-long wooden plank. From time to time, there are staff members holding boxes of physical books of "The Road to Heaven" and "Yanjing Meets Seattle", filling the entire wooden board.
"Boss. "The Road to Heaven" and "Yanjing Meets Seattle" are three copies of each. ”
"Boss, give me four copies of each."
"Boss, is there anything else? Hurry up! ”
From time to time, a few young book friends rushed over and shouted, most of these people were An Jiajun and ordinary book friends who had left the team, dragging the blessing of "Panlong", and now many people have returned, and now they are coming to support Ye Xiangdong as always.
What's more, just like the three local tyrants of An Jiajun, the man with the same wind, Xiaoyue and Ge Shutian each bought a hundred copies, and specially distributed them to some book friends who have poor economic strength but have time to come in person.
In just two hours, all the books full of wooden boards were sold out, which made the staff wipe their eyes in disbelief, no mistake, right? Are you sure it's not April Fool's Day?
You know, this is not a signing session for singers, there is a world of difference between fans of fiction and fans of singers.
But the grand occasion in front of me, people who don't know think it is the signing meeting of which singer, it's too terrifying.
The corners of the publisher's mouth were about to twitch, this time in cooperation with Ye Xiangdong, the sales of physical books broke the largest total sales this year, making them make a lot of money, this signing meeting was only held reluctantly, but I didn't expect it to be crooked, but it promoted sales, what else can compare to the happiness of making money.
The boss clapped his hands and shouted, "Xiao Liu, isn't there a lot of goods in the warehouse?" Take it for emergency first. ”
"Boss, but these are promised to be sold to those brick-and-mortar stores." Xiao Liu hesitated.
"You melon baby, now drag those physical stores, speed up the printing, and make up for it when the time comes." The boss hated iron and said with no steel.
"But"
"No, time is money, if you miss this opportunity, you don't know if you wait until the Year of the Monkey next time." The boss kicked Xiao Liu excitedly and roared: "Stinky boy, go quickly!" ”
The crazy sales volume has simply shattered the eyes of many writers and publishers, Nima, this is not the time for hot sales, he is aiming at the books that are about to be taken off the shelves, and at this time they can still be on fire, and their sales have skyrocketed.
Compared with Ye Xiangdong, the excited people beat their chests one after another, looked up to the sky and roared, and the calm people sighed again and again, speechless and condensed.
Time flew by, and at 11:50 p.m., the signing session began immediately.
During this time, Ye Xiangdong spent 2 hours in the beauty salon dressing up, and then hurriedly finished eating, and followed Su Yi to the hall on the first floor of the TT Building.
As soon as I entered, I was taken aback by the enthusiastic book friends.
"An Da!"
"Brother Dong! Tungko !! ”
……
Most of this group of fans are An Jiajun and Dong Fan of the world, seeing Ye Xiangdong, it was like seeing an idol and screaming, the blazing enthusiasm could not be blown away even by the cold air of the central air conditioner.
"That's a lot of people!" Su Yi roughly glanced at it, there were at least five or six hundred people, it seems that these guys from the publishing house are playing small tricks, and they actually put in more than a hundred people, but now is not the time to investigate this issue.
"Hello everyone." In the middle of the hall, Ye Xiangdong bowed slightly and greeted many book friends and fans.
"An Da Hao (Dong Ge Hao) !!"
Although the emotions of the book friends were intense, fortunately, most of them were very sensible and did not crowd or anything like that. (To be continued......)
