Chapter Seventy-One: The Book Signing

The next day, at eleven o'clock, Koyanagi was taken by special car to a large bookstore for a book signing. This large bookstore is actually an affiliated bookstore of Shinmonsha, so it doesn't give any money.

Note that there is no money here, it is not that the publishing house on Koyanagi's side gives them money, but they give money to the publishing house, according to the reason, occupy their place, there is almost no turnover in a day, it should be to give them money, but in fact, Koyanagi came here for a book signing, in all kinds of newspapers, magazines, there are publications, I am afraid that there are a lot of book fans who came to the scene, which is invisibly, it is an advertisement for this bookstore, so generally speaking, there is no venue rental fee, There is even a subsidy of some money as a reward.

Just like some free goods in some TV programs, the gift of goods is supplied by the supplier for free, not only that, but also give the TV station some money as advertising fees, which is a win-win situation for the TV station and some viewers who get the goods, and the supplier even if they don't get anything, they also get fame, in a sense, they are all winners.

This is also known as a win-win situation.

But this doesn't have much to do with Koyanagi, he only cares about how many fans will be there this time.

In his previous life, when he was holding a book signing in China, Xiaoyanagi was embarrassed to find that many of those book lovers were parallel goods and childcare organized by the publishing house itself, and they were not his real book fans at all! It is purely to support the number of people and make the team less shabby, just like some domestic box offices, giving away movie tickets, making the box office inflated, and hiring people to participate in the signing meeting, and this reason makes the signing scene lively, but in fact, it is a self-destructive marketing method.

Since then, Koyanagi has never organized a book signing, silently writing, silently publishing, silently selling, even if his fame is higher than at the beginning.

Because in China, unless some big writers, well-known authors, organize signing sessions, they will generally end in a rather bleak ending. This is also the sad point of some unknown writers, who want to be famous and not famous, and who want to be die-hard and not die-hard.

In this life, it is a little different, and more than 200,000 copies have been sold in just one month, which is not a trivial concept.

Although the sales market for Japanese novels in this world is a bit larger than in the previous life, the degree of change is not as great as that of Shonen Jump, and as long as it sells more than 100W copies a year, it can occupy the top 10 or even top 5 positions in the annual sales of hot novels. It can be said that he is a very famous and even best-selling writer.

And Koyanagi's new book is very likely to reach this level.

It is conceivable that the current status of Koyanagi is by no means comparable to that of ordinary rookie writers, so there is no need to worry about the signing meeting being cold.

It's just that after many years, organizing the signing meeting again, there is inevitably some nervousness.

The publishing house's packaging team, after greeting Koyanagi, sent her to the dressing room and began to put on a very simple makeup look for her.

Looking at his handsome face in the mirror, Koyanagi smiled slightly, this smile is also charming enough.

"Xiaoyanagi-kun is really handsome, it really fascinates me." Uejima Qingyu next to him couldn't help but laugh and said.

The makeup artist, carefully arranging Koyanagi's hairstyle, Koyanagi squinted his eyes and said, "Isn't it handsome......"

"Then I don't need to say, then again, how many girls is Koyanagi-kun dating?" Ueshima asked.

"I haven't dated yet, it's not a ......," Koyanagi said lightly.

"That means that sister, I still have a chance?" Ueshima Qingyu asked with a smile.

"Aren't you afraid that others will break the news about the unspoken rules of the editors of the New Dream Society?" Koyanagi asked, pouting.

"How can it be like that, so that the writer can have a good mood to create a good work, it is also the task of the editor-in-charge, I am so selfless to sacrifice myself and give you meat. The joy of desire, so that you have more inspiration, will definitely be passed down through the ages. Uejima Qingyu said with a serious nonsense next to him.

"You guy......" Koyanagi said a little wordlessly.

"But then again, Koyanagi-kun is so handsome, there is already a plan in the publishing house to develop Koyanagi-kun into an idol writer, and the signing will also shake hands by the way! I'm afraid that in the future, I will inevitably participate in some activities, even TV series, movies, of course, you are not a star, just a cameo, so there are very few, just some variety shows, which should be indispensable. Uejima Qingyu thought about it and said.

"I don't want such troublesome things." Koyanagi said.

"I'm afraid it's going to give those guys a headache......"

Soon, the time came to 1 p.m.

The signing session officially began.

Xiao Liu walked to the table and sat down, looking at the rows not far away, lined up like a long dragon, and was stunned for a moment, I went, how many people should be here? I can't help but feel a little dizzy.

Ueshima Qingyu, who was next to him, raised his palm, gave a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "It's a big success!" Koyanagi-kun! ”

"Success, your sister...... It's going to be a hard-fought battle. Xiaoyanagi couldn't help but complain like this: "Although I hope there will be more people, I didn't expect that there are so many people!" ”

However, looking at the joy and excitement on the faces of those book lovers who rushed to the book signing, Koyanagi also felt a little relieved, this is not bad, let's work harder.

First place.

"Hello Mr. Koyanagi." The book fan handed over the novel and said with some excitement.

"Hello." Koyanagi smiled: "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Zhenxiong Koban, and I like Koyanagi-sensei's novels very much."

"What do you want to sign?"

"Just sign the sentence that Mr. Koyanagi likes."

"Well, my favorite sentence - dignified, loud, give Xiaobanjun, Xiaoliu. Well, here you go. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Koyanagi!"

Finally shake hands and leave.

2nd place.

"Mr. Koyanagi, I finally met you, I didn't expect Mr. Koyanagi to be so handsome!" The second is a female book lover, and said with some excitement.

"Well, you're pretty too." Koyanagi praised casually. The female book fan in front of her has good facial features, and she is indeed quite beautiful.

"Thank you......" The female book fan's face turned slightly red, and then said, "By the way, Mr. Koyanagi, what is your dream?" Can it be written in a book? ”

"Is it okay to sign it on the book?" Koyanagi nodded, and then wrote on the title page of the novel: "One day, my name will be carried out by everyone's ears, and then, I will pay for things and give a check, and others will be reluctant to exchange the check because they want my signature!" I've made it: you don't have to spend money to buy things! This is the ultimate achievement! ”

Looking at Xiaoyanagi's words, female book fans couldn't help but laugh: "Teacher Xiaoyanagi is really funny!" I will continue to support you in the future! Thank you! ”

Then shook hands, and the female book fan shook it for a while before letting go of her hand, making Xiaoliu feel that this guy was very suspicious of eating tofu!

Isn't it the type of person who is reluctant to wash his hands for a week after shaking hands...... He speculated maliciously.

3rd place.

"Koyanagi-sensei, do you remember me?" This is still a female book lover, and she looks a little familiar.
