Chapter 270: Signing Scene
"Hey, you said it would be ......"
Ran Xiaomin turned Xu Ang with his elbow.
Apparently, he also saw the banners that hung down.
Xu Ang nodded and said, "Who else could it be?" It must have been him. There will never be a person with the same name and surname, the same pen name, and the same book in this world. ”
Ran Xiaomin: "This kid can, he didn't reveal the slightest rumor in the bedroom." I've almost forgotten that he's still a writer. ”
Xu Ang empathized and said: "I think I can go back and ask him for another skewer." ”
"Let's go, let's take a look, I haven't seen the signing party up close."
Xie Yao, the girl next to her, was confused: "What's the situation?" ”
Xu Ang pointed to the banner with a unique sense of superiority and said, "See? ”
"See, and then what?"
"Name, Tang Mingyao!"
"Oh, the same name as Tang Mingyao in our class?" Xie Yao nodded, and then suddenly realized, "Our Ban Tang Mingyao's signing meeting?" ”
She suddenly became excited: "I heard that he is a writer, is that true?" ”
"Of course, you don't read the newspapers, do you?"
Xie Yao: "I don't think much of it, I used to think it was a rumor, after all, he was very low-key at school, and he was no different from other classmates." So this is not even a rumor? It's incredible. ”
Xu Ang actually felt a little incredible, but he couldn't show it in front of Xie Yao.
He sighed and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal, he's also an ordinary person." You probably didn't know that he was often bullied by us in his dorm room. ”
"yes, how to bully?"
"Just let him have a dinner...... Something like that. ”
Xie Yao laughed and said, "This is people's generosity...... Alas, there are so many people here, so many people come to the signing meeting? Does Tang Mingyao have so many fans? ”
"Maybe the publisher came in to fill the scene."
In the middle of speaking, Xu Ang suddenly stopped.
Because the crowd in front of them suddenly cheered, and a large number of them raised small buntings, and a small number of cheering cards and the like.
Immediately after, the crowd erupted in loud cheers.
"What's the situation?"
Xu Ang was a little flustered, and the three of them followed the sound and saw the words "Train King Fan Club" written on the support cards.
He said, "It's a bit of an exaggeration, isn't it Tang Mingyao is not a star, and there is a fan club? ”
Ran Xiaomin agreed: "That's it, I haven't heard of any writer who has a fan club...... That's only a star, and it has to be a big star. ”
At this time, they finally discovered the source of the crowd's abnormality - the person they had seen in the dormitory in the morning came to the gate of the book city at some point and boarded the makeshift stage.
Xie Yao exclaimed: "It's really Tang Mingyao! ”
She put her flyer in Xu Ang's hand and said, "Help me take it, I'll take a look!" My classmate is actually a writer, I'm going to ask for an autograph! ”
Xu Ang pulled her back speechlessly: "Do you want to go back?" We are classmates, see you every day! ”
"Oh yes."
Xie Yao was stunned and retreated: "You're still smart!" ”
Xu Ang rose up with a sense of superiority in IQ: "I will ask for an autograph later, but this kind of scene is rare, I have come here, and if I don't say hello to him in front, wouldn't it be a trip for nothing?" It would be nice to have a group photo. ”
As he spoke, he threw down the others and squeezed forward by himself.
…………
When Tang Mingyao came to the scene, the scene became chaotic for a while.
He didn't expect that a signing party that he had never advertised himself would have so many readers coming to the scene.
When those eye-catching cheering cards appeared in sight, he was even more stunned for a moment like Xu Ang on the edge of the crowd.
"This year, a writer has a fan club? Where did it come from? ”
The blame is that the university dormitory is not allowed to pull the network cable, and he gradually rarely uses the Internet, sometimes not going to the Internet café once a week, or even half a month. When I went, I just did some business, and I rarely read forums and news websites, so I didn't learn about the latest developments on the Internet.
Seeing the surging crowd and the tendency to be out of control, Tang Mingyao hurriedly discussed with the organizers, and while letting the security personnel maintain order, he took the microphone on the stage to comfort everyone: "Please be quiet!" Don't get excited, don't crowd! ”
Oh!!!
The crowd cheered.
It's over, his opening not only failed to suppress the commotion, but made the trouble even worse below.
As a last resort, he had no choice but to raise the volume and roar: "Quiet! ”
The scene was suddenly silent.
Even Xu Ang, who was squeezing forward, stopped moving.
Tang Mingyao said solemnly: "There are too many people, please obey the order, okay?" Last month, the foreign news reported a stampede, two dead and sixteen injured, and I don't want that to happen at my book signing. Please follow the order, which is both to love others and to protect yourself. ”
The crowd finally quieted down.
With the support of security personnel, a long queue formed to wait for the official start of the signing.
The next step was to go through the process of releasing the new book, which took more than ten minutes, and then Tang Mingyao sat down at the table and began to sign for readers.
After all, it's not a movie premiere, it's not a grand show, and the organizers aren't so fancy.
The first reader was a teenage middle school student.
He walked to the stage and said excitedly: "Hello train king, I am your book lover, I have read every one of your books, and I have collected all of them, I am so excited to see you today...... Me, can I shake your hand? ”
Tang Mingyao stretched out his hand to shake him and said, "Thank you for liking my book." ”
Then sign your name on the new book.
There is no specially designed font, just simple handwriting.
Next is the second reader, a middle-aged man in his thirties. He was a little embarrassed to see that the author he liked was so young, but he still stepped forward.
Tang Mingyao signed the title page and said, as usual, "Thank you for liking my book." ”
After signing for a while, the members of the fan club holding the support cards lined up in front of them.
Tang Mingyao looked at them holding the signs and small buntings that had not been put down, and thanked them: "Thank you, I didn't know I had a fan club." ”
One of the fans holding a sign said: "We have built your personal website on the Internet as a base for fans, and it has been half a year. When the news of your signing came out before, we organized it on the website, and this time there were more than 100 people from the local area and surrounding cities alone! ”
Tang Mingyao thanked him again.
After signing these fans one by one, he took the initiative to ask, "Can you leave a few contact information?" I'll go back and check out the website and talk to you. ”
Several fans happily left QQ or mailboxes and left.
There were still many readers lining up in the back, Tang Mingyao didn't dare to delay too much time, and kept writing the words "train king" repeatedly.
After writing for more than an hour, my hands were numb.
During the intermittent time, he couldn't help but complain to himself: "Why did I take a four-character pen name in the first place? If you take two words or one word, isn't this kind of occasion several times easier? For example, taking a pen name [Wang] is both domineering and simple, how good ......"
It's a pity that it's too late to regret it now.
You can only sign honestly.
After signing for a while, a boy with glasses suddenly came up.
What this benevolent brother brought up to sign was not a new book released today, but a ......
[The Complete Works of the Train King].
Tang Mingyao was stunned when he saw this book.
He didn't know when he had published a complete book.
