MTL - Have You Ever Met Such a Cold Author-Chapter 58 The surprise of the signing
It has been a year since the transnational lawsuit of Otti Films v. Bi Jian Literary Network infringement case completely came to an end.
The compensation can definitely be called "astronomical price". Aoti Films and Sweet and Sour Studio divided the money in half. To celebrate, Tang Tu sent everyone in the studio a luxury car, and there were others. Less balance.
"I laughed so hard, Ni Ni and Liu Jin jointly sued Zhu Mao again, saying that he maliciously concealed the fact of plagiarism, which caused the company to suffer losses. As a result, Zhu Mao turned around and posted the chat record with the editor on Weibo, and Ni Ni sent a message to the editor. The statement said that the chat records were forged..." Jian Dumpling was swiping Weibo, so happy that his mobile phone was almost unsteady, "Netizens are all watching jokes, saying that their dog bites a dog's hair."
Tang Tu let out a faint "um", and the assistants all calmed down a little when they saw the boss's indifference. This is also because the other boss is not there. If Lu Lianguang was there, he would have had fun with them long ago.
The Sweet and Sour Studio has been very busy recently, and almost all the staff are on business trips - "Book with Yan" has just started, and half of the people followed Lu Lianguang to the national tour signing; S: "Into One" was set for two months, and the remaining half of the people were brought to North America by Tang Tu to discuss with Oti about the arrangement of the second part.
Now their group is waiting for Oti's team to come. In order to show courtesy, each of their meetings came much earlier than the agreed time. Several people were using their mobile phones to pass the time. Tang Tu was no exception. Convergence of the signing will return to the map.
"Book with Yan" has only aired a dozen episodes, and it is already very popular. The sales of the original book have skyrocketed, and the major bookstores are in short supply. It also coincides with the completion of Lu Lianguang's first work after signing the contract with Hongye. Sweet and Sour Studio and Hongye The film and television cooperation arranged a grand national tour for individual signings.
This is Heguang Tongchen's first public appearance. He has never talked about his appearance after writing a book for so many years. Naturally, no one has any expectations. Everyone is going for the book. As a result, after the first stop, there was no one to discuss the book, and the topic of Heguang Tongchen was full of videos and photos of the scene, and everyone was shocked: It's too handsome!
His face recognition is so high that he can be recognized within a day.
Someone with good deeds turned up the pictures of the bamboo cocoon's autographing meeting back then, combined with the screenshots of him taking selfies at every turn, often implying that he has a high degree of education, and being complained about is not a public execution at all, after all, he has long been cold. , which is dragged out to whip the corpse.
Lu Lianguang's signing venue was full, and everyone in the team was exhausted. Fortunately, it was coming to an end. The last stop was arranged in Dongling. There were many fans in the surrounding provinces who missed the previous signing. The number of people exceeded the budget too much, and the organizers had to temporarily adjust the plan and extended the signing event in Dongling by one day to satisfy all the fans.
Tomorrow is the last day of the extra extension.
Tang Tu touched his mobile phone and couldn't help feeling a little sad. When Lu Lianguang set off to sign the sale, he was also about to leave for North America. Since they were together a year ago, the two haven't been separated for so long... More importantly The thing is, this is the first time that Lu Lianguang has held a signing meeting in his life, but he has something to do and can't come to the scene. Although Lu Lianguang had comforted him in every possible way, he remembered very clearly that when he didn't know that he was going to travel to North America, Lu Lianguang was looking forward to him going to the signing party...
Tang Tu turned over and over to look at the live photos taken by the fans, and slowly made up his mind.
The next day, Tang Tu was in the queue, and with hindsight, he felt that he had done something stupid.
Most of the entire team are young and energetic girls. He is a tall young man, and he looks particularly eye-catching, not to mention that he wears a hat to hide it, which attracts many girls to look at him frequently.
He personally apologized at the meeting yesterday, saying that he had something to rush back to Dongling. In fact, the cooperation has basically been agreed, and the rest is just the formalities. It doesn't matter if Tang Tu is present or not. Aoti's team heard that he was trying to catch up with his boyfriend's signing party. Not only was he not unhappy, but also praised him as a romantic mate, asked him if he could include this in a documentary of the Landis movie series...
After Tang Tu left the meeting, he immediately changed his signature and returned to China. He got off the plane and then took a taxi back to the city. He crossed half the world without stopping. Only then would he catch up with the last signing.
Too impulsive. Thinking of giving Lu Lianguang a surprise, he rushed all the way over when his head became hot. From the moment he started queuing and someone pointed at him, he started to back down in his heart, but the look of Lu Lianguang's expectations that day was imprinted in his mind, and he still lined up until now.
Hongye rented an entire floor of the largest bookstore in Dongling City with a lot of money.
Tang Tu had been queuing for a while, and finally there were not a few people left in front of him. From this position, Lu Lianguang himself could already be seen in the gap between the crowds.
His face was probably slightly modified with makeup today, and he looked more handsome than usual, and his smile was simply radiant.
Tang Tu lowered his head and supported the brim of his hat to prevent Lu Lianguang from seeing him in advance. To make Lu Lianguang happy, he worked hard all night, and then waited for several hours, it was all worth it. He thought to himself how Lu Lianguang would react when he saw him, and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly. At this moment, a few words of conversation drifted into his ears.
"...There are so many people, it's a big show..."
"That's not as good as that who..."
"That's not it. I heard that the "Landis" trailer that was released a few days ago broke some broadcast records on foreign websites. He is far from the bamboo bushes..."
Um?
Tang Tu heard his pseudonym and looked up sensitively. It turned out to be a middle-aged couple in front of him. At first he thought that the two were here to line up for his children, but he was actually a reader listening to the content of the conversation.
The lady among them who was talking looked to be in her forties or fifty years old, with a good complexion and a kind face, but it was the words she said that made him uncomfortable.
"I've followed Bamboo Bush's novels before, and the update is on time, it's not the same as the one sitting over there! That guy, if you follow his serialization, it will be tortured, not accurate. Hey, you are too lazy. …”
"Doctor Chen, you said that, he didn't buy a load of books." The middle-aged man who accompanied her said.
The woman called "Doctor Chen" said, "Then what you said, 'I don't like to read love and love', is not at home secretly reading the books I bought!"
Her husband retorted calmly: "Who is sneaking? I read it honestly, and only after reading it will I know whether I like it or not. What he writes is not as atmospheric as that of Bamboo Growing."
"It's not as popular as it is, that bamboo bush is internationally famous." Dr. Chen said, "Hey, you know, I actually saw a news report about his signing ceremony yesterday, saying that his popularity ranks first among Internet authors. It's really embarrassing to die, that is, Bamboo Congsheng has switched to writing physical books this year, otherwise where would it be his turn-"
"Auntie, it's not like that."
A male voice suddenly said. Several middle-aged women turned their heads in slight surprise, and the woman called "Doctor Chen" looked at the young man with the hat, a little strange, but still asked kindly, "Young man, are you talking to him? Am I talking?"
"Yes, I'm sorry to interrupt you." Tang Tu took off his hat to show his respect for the older lady, and also used this action to cover his tense and slightly trembling hands with his hat, "But I think you I have some misunderstandings about Heguang Tongchen, are you not chasing his new book this year? Since he graduated and started working full-time, he has been updating it on time every day, and the number of updates is the same as when Bamboo Congsheng was still writing online articles."
The expressions of the middle-aged couple in front of them were a little subtle. The wife carefully looked at Tang Tu's face after taking off her hat, and then glanced at her husband, who nodded affirmatively to her.
Tang Tu was able to summon the courage to take the initiative to talk to strangers, which was the limit of Lu Lianguang's slow practice this year. He was so nervous that his brain couldn't function, and he couldn't think about their strange interaction, so he just threw himself together. Go on.
"His updates were not stable in the past few years, but the quality is the best, right? Each type of works has limitations, and different types of works are really incomparable. Even if you prefer bamboo-grown works, you shouldn't belittle them. Being in the same dust as the light, after all, fame doesn't come out of thin air, and his sales prove it..."
Tang Tu couldn't go on, because he was puzzled to find that the middle-aged couple in front of him laughed together.
"Cough." The man cleared his throat, held back his laughter, and said with a serious face, "Look, talk ill of others, other people's... other people's fans are not happy."
"Oh, I'm sorry." Dr. Chen laughed especially hard, and said to Tang Tu, "You are right, I am biased, I apologize to him, don't worry about it. This... young man, you are in the same dust as Guang. fans? Came to his signing party on purpose?"
Tang Tu was a little confused and nodded awkwardly.
The middle-aged man seemed to be unable to restrain himself and wanted to laugh all the time, so he could only pretend to be calm and turned his back. Dr. Chen chatted with Tang Tuo cordially: "It's quite rare, there are boys reading his novels."
In fact, there are many. After the broadcast of "Book with Yan", the popularity of Heguang Tongchen has increased, and the audience is very wide... Tang Zu thought, but he didn't intend to say it, the momentum that he finally saved up just now is gone. , said uncomfortably sullenly, "Yeah."
It seems that Dr. Chen is a friendly and talkative person, and asked with a smile: "Do you like being with the light so much?"
"…Um."
Doctor Chen keenly captured that the ears of this seemingly calm young man quickly turned red. She laughed secretly and thought it was so cute. She resisted the thought of continuing to tease him, and was about to say something to ease him. She was so emotional, she heard her husband call her: "Doctor Chen, it's our time."
So she just smiled at Tang Tu, and walked to Lu Lianguang with her husband. Tang Tu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put on her hat again.
I will see you soon, so close that you can hear the voices of the staff on the booth. Just when Tang Tu nervously lowered his head to check his attire, he heard a very familiar voice.
The familiar voice said in amazement, "Professor Lu, why are you here? Hey, my mother is here..."
Tang Tu's mind was blank, and his first reaction was to run away immediately, hoping that Lu Lianguang's parents didn't recognize him just now... He had just turned around and took the first step, and the surroundings were full of exclamations.
Lu Lianguang supported the long table of the booth with one hand and jumped out. He took three steps and grabbed Tang Tu's wrist. His voice was filled with surprise: "Why did you return to China earlier? What are you running for? ?"
Tang Tu: "..." It's over.
What do you do when you meet your boyfriend's parents for the first time and they get mad at them? Online wait, very urgent.
