Chapter 074: Sign-in hand cramps
A week after Dou Yan left, Chang Zheng was very tired. This week, he basically didn't code much. He is used to coding words on the computer for more than ten hours a day, and he does not feel very tired. He was tired of writing, and he repeated four words every day -- the return of the sky.
The signing meeting on the day of the Lantern Festival was Chang Zheng's first signing session. No matter what the field is the first, it will make those who experience it feel new and excited. Once a person is excited, he will not feel tired.
Nangang Literature and Art Publishing House saw Chang Zheng's first signing meeting, which drove good sales performance. So in the following week, they organized four more "Infinite Terror" book signings. Of course, Chang Zheng has to attend.
In the first signing meeting, Chang Zheng signed for more than an hour, and he didn't feel tired.
In the second game, he signed for three hours, and he felt okay, tired and tired, but he could withstand it.
In the third game, four hours, he didn't feel very good, quite tired, and he couldn't stand it anymore.
In the fourth game, one afternoon, his hand was about to be broken, and his right hand was numb, so he changed to his left hand, but fortunately he was left-handed.
The fifth, which is today's game, has been signed from half past nine in the morning to five o'clock in the afternoon, and Chang Zheng's hands are basically useless. He asked Director Liu of the publishing house if he could give his handprints to book lovers, and Director Liu encouraged him to hold on a little longer, and it was over at six o'clock.
Chang Zheng regretted that he would not have been so tired if he knew that the pen name was "one" or "1".
Finally stayed up until six o'clock, Chang Zheng felt that his arms no longer belonged to him, only sour but not cool. It seems that there is no difference between a writer and a tractor driver, both do manual work.
There is no way, the publishing contract is written in black and white, and Mr. Chang Zheng must participate in the signing of sales and other related publicity activities organized by the publishing house or website free of charge, a total of 10 times.
"Hey, the code word is not out of occupational disease. The signatures are almost signed as work injuries. Chang Zheng shook his arms and moved his muscles and bones, whining.
Director Liu smiled: "Hard work, sky." Let's go, old place in the evening, celebrate. "Infinite Terror" was released for a week, and 20,000 sets were sold in these five signing sessions in Nangang alone. Congratulations! ”
Congratulations! Chang Zheng muttered inwardly. I'm tired like a dog, and I can only take 12% by 70% of the share, and your publishing house is worth celebrating. In the future, when I signed a physical publishing contract for "Evil Spirit", I had to bind them to the content of the contract, and the duration of an event should not exceed three hours at most.
Complaining is complaining, and the kung fu on the surface still has to be done in place. Chang Zheng smiled very earnestly: "Director Liu, I asked for a leave of absence today, and I have a little personal matter." Thank you for your care. ”
This week, Chang Zheng basically didn't code words on the computer. Sign during the day, and at night eat, drink, sing, and socialize with the publishing house, the store, and the publishing house's agents and distributors. When he got home, it was usually after two o'clock in the morning, and he didn't even have the strength to sleep. When I wake up, I have to do these things again. So he felt tired, and he didn't want to socialize anymore tonight.
Fortunately, "Evil Awe" has a manuscript, and he set up automatic upload updates, fixed four time points every day, and uploaded four chapters. So this also reflects the importance of saving manuscripts, when everyone has no personal affairs. Even if it's better to upload a chapter a day, it's better than to break. This week has completely disrupted Chang Zheng's daily rhythm. He wanted to return to the normal working life of a writer. But sometimes, the trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop. No matter how much he stops, he will definitely not drink today.
"Oh?" , Director Liu still kept smiling: "There are already arrangements?" ”
Chang Zheng nodded: "Yes, I'm sorry for you, forgive me." ”
Director Liu patted Chang Zheng on the shoulder and said, "Okay, understand." You've had a hard time these days, so take a good rest for a few days. The market activities on the Nangang side have basically been completed, and the signing will not have much effect in the short term. In a few days, you may have to work hard again, and you will go to other provinces to run. ”
"Contact again, contact again." , Chang Zheng said goodbye to Director Liu and ran away. Let's talk about it in a few days, and go to other provinces to run? Looks like I'm going to have to shut down and play gone. I've got to code words! You moms can't understand the bitterness of Sister Yao. I've worked hard to laugh and take a small head, and you don't do anything but smoke a big head. It's not fair.
Chang Zheng left the signing site and went straight to the prosperous world. On the second floor of Shengshi Gluttony is the seafood cafeteria, which is about to become a regular canteen. Chen Jiaqiang said that he would not take any money from him, but Chang Zheng would still pay after every meal, and he did not like to owe others anything.
Today, Chang Zheng didn't go to the restaurant on the second floor, but took the elevator directly to the fourth floor. The fourth floor is the bathing center, where you can take a sauna. After the sauna, you can ask a technician for a massage. He is not feeling good anywhere now, and he needs a massage to loosen his bones. In particular, the arm is very strained, and he can't code it when he goes back now, even if the code is not fast, he must first relieve the fatigue of his arm.
After steaming in the sauna, Chang Zheng went to the massage room in a white yukata and ordered his familiar technician, No. 99. He has been here many times, and after receiving the services of several technicians, he feels that the No. 99 has the best hand and the best grasp.
Technician No. 99 came into the room, she was a young girl, not tall, not bad, quite sweet.
No. 99 was very happy when he saw that it was Chang Zheng: "The boss is here, what is the formula today?" ”
Chang Zheng smiled: "The same as before, the 90-minute kind." ”
"yes, okay." , No. 99 picked up the phone hanging on the wall and said: "No. 99, room 408 starts with the clock, package A 90 minutes." ”
After getting up the bell, No. 99 helped Chang Zheng take off his bathrobe. And then she began to take it off herself.
Chang Zheng was lying on the massage table shirtless, and No. 99 wore a miniskirt and a small crop top and began to serve Chang Zheng.
The technicians here are basically young girls, and although they dress sexily when they serve customers, they are all regular massage services, and they will never involve some vulgar business. Nowadays, the market is fiercely competitive, and even formal service establishments have to find ways to attract customers.
No. 99's massage technique is very good, pressing and pressing, Chang Zheng is about to fall asleep.
"Boss, you're a good guy." , No. 99 said suddenly.
"Uh-huh? Why? Chang Zheng snorted.
Number 99: "I've served you a few times, and you never take advantage of me, unlike some guests, especially those old men, who are broken." ”
Chang Zheng comforted her: "Hey, they are all working people, and it's not easy." If those old men take advantage of you again, you will cut their little dingding. ”
Number 99 laughed wildly: "Hahaha! Good! By the way, what does the boss do? You don't think you said that. ”
Chang Zheng said seriously: "I drive a tractor. ”
No. 99 couldn't stop laughing: "Boss, you are so humorous!" You white-skinned and tender-skinned meat, how can you drive a tractor? ”
Chang Zheng: "Take a break, be thirsty." ”
No. 99 stopped the massage and complained, "Oops, the drinks haven't been delivered?" Boss, wait a minute, I'll call you a drink, what do you drink? ”
Chang Zheng: "Lemonade." ”
Number 99 called for lemonade. After a while, a young waiter in trousers, shirt, and vest entered, carrying a plate with a glass of lemonade resting on it.
Chang Zheng put on a yukata at this time and sat on a massage table. The waiter put the lemonade on the table, and he bent down and bowed to Chang Zheng politely and said, "Boss, please use it slowly." ”
Chang Zheng nodded in gratitude to him. After the waiter looked up and saw Chang Zheng's face, he was suddenly stunned. Chang Zheng joked with the waiter: "Pretty boy, don't be infatuated with brother." ”
The waiter didn't speak, just looked at Chang Zheng.
No. 99 urged the waiter: "That...... Pretty boy, it's okay, you can go out. She didn't know the name of the waitress. There is a lot of mobility here, and some people may be on duty today and leaving tomorrow. The waiter was probably new here, and 99 had been here for at least three or four months and didn't know him.
The waiter still didn't go out, he stared at Chang Zheng and spit out a few words: "Are you returning from the sky?" ”
