Beijing, Book Building, the first floor hall

Today is the signing day of the Chess Soul Comics, and Zhang Rilong came to the outside of the Book Building according to the agreed time.

At this time, there was already a long queue outside, about fifty meters long.

Zhang Rilong didn't expect there to be so many people, and after walking forward, he found that this team was still a special team.

A special banner was hung at the door.

Customers who have purchased "Chess Soul" should line up here.

Because of the summer vacation, there are not many people in the book building, and many people are also curious about the long queue over there.

"Teacher Zhang!" Zhuge Caijing came to Zhang Rilong's side and said to Zhang Rilong, who was wearing a mask: "But it's time for you." ”

Zhang Rilong said: "Why are there so many people? ”

Zhuge Caijing said with a smile: "It's so many people! ”

Zhang Rilong was quickly pulled to a corner of the hall, and after walking in front of a mountain of walls, Zhang Rilong realized that it was a wall made of comic books.

Because the comics are all newly printed books, the neat walls formed by the piles have a very impactful effect.

The walls are about three meters high and four meters long, and the exact width is unknown, so you can't see it on the other side.

"How much is this?" Zhang Rilong couldn't understand, "What should I do if I can't sell out?" ”

Zhuge Caijing felt very funny when he looked at Zhang Rilong's serious and puzzled look, "It will definitely be sold out!" You sit down, let's get started! ”

Zhang Rilong sat in the place between the comic book wall and the signing desk, and soon Zhuge Caijing notified the staff.

"Chess Soul comics, now start signing!"

Soon the first reader came in, and it was a girl.

After the girl walked in, she swiped it with her mobile phone and said excitedly: "Five hundred!" ”

Zhang Rilong's hand holding the pen trembled.

Soon the staff began to climb the ladder to unload bricks from the walls of the comics, counting five hundred.

A stack of comics was pushed in front of Zhang Rilong through the long table, Zhang Rilong looked at the comic book in front of him that looked like a thick grade homework book, and immediately felt that he had been deceived!

The girl quickly came over and said excitedly, "Hello Teacher Zhang! I'm a big fan of you, I was watching the first episode of Chess Soul, I'm also from Hangzhou, my name is Li Zi! ”

"Hello Plum." Zhang Rilong greeted politely and said helplessly: "You don't have to sign all the signatures, right?" If all 500 copies are signed, I feel a little too embarrassed. ”

Li Zi said happily: "You don't have to sign them all, just sign twenty of them, I use twenty copies for collection, and others for gifts." ”

"You have so many friends...... Zhang Rilong lowered his head helplessly and began to sign the comic book.

The price of one is 68, and 500 copies are 34,000, this person has flown from Hangzhou to the capital, and more than 30,000 may not be anything to her.

Li Zi looked at Zhang Rilong's signature, which is different from the signatures of many cartoonists, Zhang Rilong's signature is Zhang Rilong, which is clear and understandable.

"Teacher Zhang, can I take a picture with you?" Li Zi made a request and quickly said, "I'm a loyal fan!" I especially like this work! ”

Zhang Rilong said: "Yes, but I don't want my face to be recognized by netizens, and I can't take off my mask." ”

"Good!" Li Zi quickly took out his mobile phone and took a selfie with Zhang Rilong.

After the shooting, Li Zi bowed excitedly and thanked him, and then happily ran out with a cart full of books.

The second fan was a man, who came over and said, "I also have 500 copies, exactly 20 sets." ”

There is not only one book of chess souls, there are twenty books in total, and it is already the finale.

Zhang Rilong began to sign comics.

People who come to buy books will not only buy one set, at least three sets and five sets of starts, and some people will also focus on buying a certain volume of comics, corresponding to the plot they like.

Only the one in their own collection needs to be signed, and the rest are divided into various unexpected uses such as communication, ordinary viewing, and photocopying.

Pay the money quickly, never bargain, no credit.

Except for a few girls, most of them don't ink or talk nonsense, at most they just ask Zhang Rilong what his intentions are for the final finale.

An unpretentious, somewhat obese middle-aged man walked in and looked at the comic book wall behind Zhang Rilong, took off his mask and said:

"Give me as much as you have left."

Zhang Rilong raised his head and looked at this handsome guy.

Zhuge Caijing quickly showed a look of surprise when he saw the other party, and asked, "Are you the elder of Shenke?" ”

Shenke was a little impatient, and when he looked at Zhang Rilong, he found that Zhang Rilong had an indifferent look on his face, so he said politely: "Hello Mr. Zhang." ”

Zhang Rilong said in a friendly manner: "Oh, hello, do you want so many books?" I think there are many rich people in the imperial capital, but it takes up a lot of space to buy so much, and it's almost the same to buy a set or two, too much is really unnecessary. ”

Zhuge Caijing quickly introduced: "Mr. Zhang, this is a famous elder in the circle, Mr. Shenke, Mr. Shenke has a collection of two million books at home, and has collected all the well-known comics from the forties of the last century to the present one hundred and twenty years!" There are still a lot of niche comics, and if you can't find them in Mr. Shenke's collection, then there are basically no ones out there! ”

Zhang Rilong looked confused, "Oh, I also have a lot of books at home, but there is only one book, because I basically don't read much after reading it, and I can't imagine the horror of two million books." ”

Shenke saw that Zhang Rilong didn't know him, so he explained: "I don't have a lot of collections, a set of about thirty copies, sometimes there are friends who miss the purchase date, and I really want some out-of-print comics, so I sometimes have adult beauty, this time I was asked by some friends in the circle, come and buy some mailed to them, some small places are inconvenient for express delivery, I can't come to buy books." ”

"Most of the people in our circle are not in the imperial capital."

Zhang Rilong couldn't understand it, but he respected the elders of these niche circles.

"Then I want to thank you for your support, how many signatures do you want? I don't have time anyway, so I'll sign you a few more. ”

Shenke said politely: "Thank you!" ”

Unlike others, Shenke, who has a collection of two million books in the imperial capital, must be a rich kid.

A small circle does not mean that the news is closed, even if he is a senior elder in the anime circle, he has learned some rumors that belong to the real circle.

For example, Li Xunhuan, who has been famous in the Beijing circle recently.

This Li Xunhuan's other name is Zhang Rilong!

There is no doubt that this Zhang Rilong is that Zhang Rilong.

So Shenke knows very well that the first version of the Chess Soul comics, especially the version signed by Zhang Rilong, will definitely appreciate in the future!

Collectors love this scarce resource the most, not to make money, but to enjoy the pleasure of collecting out-of-print rare resources.

If someone is looking for this resource everywhere, then sharing it will be double the happiness.
