Tang Mingyao had seen this kind of thing on the Internet before to find the original author to sign a pirated book, but he didn't expect it to happen to him.

After thinking about it, after all, he is a reader, and he drove people away with a cold face, making him seem too stingy.

Let's sign it.

However, you can't sign it properly, the experience of the predecessors is ready-made, and you don't have to think about how to deal with this kind of scene by yourself.

He picked up the pen and wrote four words on the title page: King of the Waterwheel.

When he handed the book back to the other party, he said, "Classmate, next time you come to the book signing, please remember to take the genuine book, thank you." ”

The boy's face was flushed, and he ran away with the book in his arms.

It is estimated that he will have to go home to find that there is a word "pirated" in the signature.

The queue behind is getting longer and longer, and after more than an hour of signing, the number of people has not decreased, but has a tendency to increase.

Tang Mingyao held his sore wrist and felt that after this signing meeting, he should go to the hospital for treatment. Thinking that there were two more times in the future, he suddenly felt that there was nothing to love.

In this life, I will never engage in this kind of activity again, purely looking for guilt.

After signing for another ten minutes, Tang Mingyao had just finished saying thank you to the previous reader, when suddenly a familiar hehe came from the table.

Looking up, why is this guy laughing so silly?

It's none other than Xu Ang in the same bedroom.

Behind him are two acquaintances, Ran Xiaomin and Xie Yao.

Tang Mingyao was surprised at first, and then smiled angrily: "What are you doing here?" Do you want me to sign or what? What about books? ”

That's right, these three guys stood in line for a long time, and they didn't even have a book in their hands.

Xu Ang said with a shy face: "We just came to see what the signing will be like up close, don't say, you are really handsome on this stage!" I admire you a little bit. ”

"Get out!"

"Don't, brother, you see we've been in line for so long, don't sign it, it's okay to take a group photo."

Tang Mingyao drove them down: "Go down, take a group photo, and come back when the signing is over, don't you see so many people?" I said, "Aren't you here to hand out flyers?" What time is it now, and how many are sent out? ”

Xu Ang was stunned for a moment.

yes, aren't you here to hand out flyers? Why did you somehow follow the queue?

There was still more than an hour in line!

He felt a little dizzy in his brain, and it took a while to sort it out, numb, at first he seemed to just want to squeeze to the front to see the situation? Later, the security guards maintained order, and they were unconsciously included in the long line, and they forgot to go out by inertia!

It's fucked up.

Looking at the time, it was already more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the leaflet had not been sent out!

He shouted, dragged Ran Xiaomin and walked out: "It's dead, it's dead, I can't finish this morning's task." ”

Only Xie Yao stood in front of the stage and did not leave, and spoke to Tang Mingyao with a smile: "Tang Mingyao, you are so handsome, it turns out that you are really a great writer, you see that I have been in line for so long, help me sign it!" ”

"Thank you for the compliment, where do you want to sign?"

"Put on your clothes, I forgot to buy a book, and I didn't bring a notebook."

Tang Mingyao nodded and signed his pen name on Xie Yao's down jacket.

After Xie Yao thanked him, he caught up with the two people in front of him: "Hey, Xu Ang, Tang Mingyao really never told you about writing in school?" Look at this scene, he must have written well with so many readers! When was he in his dorm room, when did he write? ”

Xu Ang said: "I really never mentioned it." As for writing, it should be written on a computer, he has a laptop, and he will type for a while every night, I didn't pay attention to it before, but now that I think about it, it should have been written at that time. ”

"Laptop?" Xie Yao's eyes lit up a little, "Isn't that expensive?" I've heard that it will cost one or two thousand! ”

Xu Ang waved his hand indifferently: "What is this money?" You don't look at what level he is, just today's signing meeting, thousands of books are sold, and the money for a laptop will come back. Poor, we are still struggling to hand out leaflets, only 30 yuan a day, people work hard for half a day, and the income is already tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands. ”

"Wow? That's amazing! Xu Ang, we'll hand out flyers later, let's send them together, and you tell me about him. ”

When Xu Ang heard it, he felt that there was a play.

Xie Yao actually offered to distribute flyers with her, does this mean that she has a good impression of herself?

Continue!

Come on, and when the flyers are finished, maybe the two of them will be able to have lunch together.

…………

The next signing will be fine.

Tang Mingyao started signing from 9 o'clock in the morning to 12 o'clock at noon, signing about 2,000 names, and found that there were still three or four hundred people in the queue.

He gritted his teeth and signed the rest in one go.

"Whew!"

As he finished writing the last word, he let out a long breath and collapsed directly in his chair.

My wrist hurts!

The mouth is so dry!

I'm going to die......

"Take a picture!"

The person in charge of contact with the publishing house and the person in charge of the book city all ran out, stood on the stage, and took a few photos with Tang Mingyao.

These will be resources for publicity in the future, and they will naturally not miss such an opportunity.

When they finished filming, Xu Ang came out of nowhere and hooked up with him on stage: "Please help us take a few photos, thank you." ”

Click......

A few group photos with the book city as the background were frozen.

"Tang Mingyao, are you done here? Do you eat together at noon? Xie Yao took the initiative to ask him.

"No, I still have something to talk about with the publisher at noon."

Xie Yao: "What about that night?" ”

"I should go back to the school to eat in the cafeteria in the evening, what, you want me to have a treat? If you don't dislike it, let's have dinner together in the evening. ”

Today's meeting was seen by classmates, and everyone didn't say it in their hearts, but there must be red eyes, Tang Mingyao felt that it was necessary to invite everyone to have a meal and ease the relationship.

"Okay, what you said, then you're welcome."

"You come with Xu Ang and them in the afternoon, and I'll go first."

After speaking, he waved his hand to a few classmates, turned around and walked into the book city.

It was needless to say much about socializing at noon, and it wasn't until more than four o'clock in the afternoon that Tang Mingyao got out and took a taxi back to school alone.

Passing by the Internet café at the school gate, he stopped and went in to open a machine.

He's going to see the personal websites that fans have built for him.

Today's unified small bunting and specially made cheering cards have made a deep impression on him.

This made Tang Mingyao suddenly feel that how many readers he had written had read it, it was not a cold data, behind every number, there was a living person.

And the personal website created by fans spontaneously makes him feel like this is his own home.

Open the browser, use Du Niang, which has appeared last year, and search for the word train king.

Soon a series of search results popped up, and Tang Mingyao saw various electronic versions of several of his own books on these results.

In these years, there is no such thing as network copyright, so you can carry it as you want.

After a few general glances, in the last few search results on the first page, he found the personal website that the fan said.

Click in to take a look, it's quite perfect.

There is a homepage display, an author's bio, the author's latest developments, and all the electronic versions he has published, as well as a forum section dedicated to fan discussions.

In the forum, the first 20 posts are all posting the content of today's signing meeting.
