Rebirth 96: Begin the life of a monster from kindergarten

Chapter 48 Meeting Han Han at the book launch conference
  Several people sat in the office and discussed the overall process of the press conference.

Zhao Changtian has been observing Zhang and his party, and as the discussion lasted for more than two hours, his mood became more and more relaxed.

Originally, he had a hidden worry. There was a maturity in Zhang Yixing's writing that was not in line with his age, and there was also a kind of indifference hidden behind the words, so he was worried about the possibility of ghostwriting.

However, after Hu Weishi returned from Luocheng, he was full of praise for Zhang and his party, saying that he was far more talented than reported.

After chatting with Zhang and his party for a long time, Zhao Changtian recognized Hu Weishi's words.

Zhang Yixing himself is more talented, and his thoughts are more mature and wise than what is shown in the text, as if there is an old soul living in that small body.

Zhao Changtian couldn't help but sigh in his heart: There are talented people from generation to generation, and there are no empty ones under the great reputation!

After finalizing the process and details of the book launch, everyone had another meal together, and Hu Weishi saw Zhang and his family off.

In the next two days, the family started traveling, going to the Oriental Pearl Tower and the Peace Hotel.

At the filming location of the TV series "Shanghai Beach", Zhang and his party also found a photo studio and encouraged his parents to take a photo.

The photo is taken from the classic shot of holding an umbrella in the snow in "Shanghai Beach":
  Zhang Guangzong, wearing a coat, a brimmed hat and a white scarf around his neck, held an umbrella for Li Hongyu, who was dressed as Feng Chengcheng.

Zhang Yixing and his sister looked on with laughter, and Li Hongyu blushed with embarrassment. As for Zhang Guangzong, he looked bitter, and those who didn't know thought he was being tortured.

Two days later, during the Lantern Festival, the book launch of "Xia Mu's Book of Friends" officially began.

From nine to eleven in the morning, it was a very boring session, including welcome speech, new book introduction, author's speech, etc. Fortunately, Zhang and his party had already communicated with Zhao Changtian, Hu Weishi and others, and were fully prepared for this, and the event was underway It went very smoothly.

Afterwards, there was a book signing session, and many readers flooded into the venue. They were guided to buy books in the book exhibition area, and then queued up to wait for Zhang Yixin's autograph.

Zhang Guangzong and Li Hongyu led Zhang Xiuxiu to the corner of the venue. They were surprised and proud to see so many people buying books.

"One, two, three..." Li Hongyu stretched out her fingers to count the heads, and her eyes turned red as she counted.

"I can't see my brother anymore!" Zhang Xiuxiu shouted.

Zhang Guangzong bent down and lifted Zhang Xiuxiu up to her neck, and asked, "Can you see it now?"

"Hehe, I saw it, I saw it, my brother is writing!"

Most of the readers and fans who came to the scene were girls, mostly junior high school students and high school students, but also a small number of elementary school students and adults.

"Zhang Yixing, I like your books very much!"

"Zhang Yixing, I like Teacher Xiaobai in the book!"

"Zhang Yixing, you are so little and so cute!"

"Zhang Yixing, I also like writing and hope to become a writer too!"

"Zhang Yixing, today is my birthday, can you wish me a happy birthday?"

"Hi, my classmates, my children really like "Natsume's Book of Friends"!"

Being liked by others is a happy thing!

Zhang signed autographs one by one. Hu Weishi personally controlled the field next to him. Outside, the media took photos and videos.

"Zhang Yixing, right? You don't need to sign, just write a sentence for me: He can be replaced!"

A boy's voice came to his ears. Zhang and his party raised their heads and saw a young man with long hair.

Ah! This guy is here!
  Zhang and his party recognized at a glance that the child dressed like a gangster in front of them was Han Han, who would become famous in the future.

Considering that he was originally from the Magic City, it was not surprising.

It’s just that the way his nostrils are turned up in the air really deserves a beating!

Zhang Yixing smiled, wrote that sentence in the book as he requested, and then handed the book back to him.

He also praised: "This sentence comes from "Historical Records: The Chronicles of Xiang Yu". It seems that you must have studied very well!"

Han Han's face suddenly turned dark.

He glared at Zhang and his party, then took the book and left in a hurry. Being able to meet Han Han, Zhang and his party felt that the press conference was worthwhile, and the subsequent signings were no longer boring.

When the book signing ended, the press conference also entered the closing speech.

On that day, "Xiamu's Book of Friends" was officially launched for sale. The first printing of 50,000 copies was snapped up by book dealers who had been waiting for a long time. Some booksellers did not get the goods and were so angry that they cursed on the spot.

Zhao Changtian regretted it and contacted the publishing house urgently to start the first round of printing.

At this time, Zhang and his party had already left the Magic City with their family.

Hu Weishi later told Zhang Yixing the good news over the phone.

On the phone, you could hear that she was very excited. After all, at this time, selling 20,000 to 30,000 copies of a book was considered a pretty good achievement.

Half a month later, the first printing of 100,000 copies of "Xiamu's Book of Friends" was sold out again, and the second round of printing began.

The booming sales of "Xiamu's Book of Friends" have also attracted more attention to "Grudge", and its circulation has grown explosively.

Taking this opportunity, "Sprouting" struck while the iron was hot and united with many universities across the country to launch the first new concept essay contest, attracting the attention of young authors from all over the country.

And Han Han, a teenager from Shanghai, also confidently submitted his preliminary work to the competition.

When returning from the magical capital, Zhang and his party also brought back more than thirty of his own books.

As the first edition, it is quite commemorative.

On the second day of school, Zhang and his party went to the office during the break and gave each teacher in the school a signed book.

As for Principal Zhao Junyi, it is naturally indispensable.

After returning to the classroom, Zhang Yixin also gave a copy to Liu Bo, and Zhao Jinmai snatched one directly after seeing it.

Over the weekend, Zhang and his party went to Yueshan City again to deliver a signed book to Director Wang, Wang Weiyuan, and Han Shiyao.

"Yixing, you are becoming more and more famous now!" Director Wang held "Xia Mu's Book of Friends" and admired it while flipping through it.

Zhang Yixing's publication of novels really caused quite a stir, mainly because he was only eight years old.

Many media used the youngest novel writer as a gimmick and published many related news reports.

Director Wang put away the book in his hand and patted Zhang Yixin on the head, "Since I'm here, let's do Aunt Wang a favor and conduct an exclusive interview. The director has been talking about it several times!"

"Okay!" Zhang Yi Xing agreed readily.

After leaving the radio station and returning home, Zheng Wanlong called again, "Yixing, I heard your dad said that you gave others the books you wrote. Why don't I?"

"Ah? You still read books? There aren't many books on your bookshelf that you have read!"

"Go away, it's my business whether you want to see it or not. It's your business whether you send it or not. Send it quickly! Du~du~du~"

Zhang Yixing hung up the phone, but before he had taken a few steps, the phone rang again.

Zhou Xingguo said mysteriously over there: "Yixing, are you sick?"

"Um???"

"I discovered one thing. Before you were interviewed today, didn't Chen Fei bend down to sort out the interview script? You seemed to have glanced at her back at that time. You don't like people in their twenties and thirties, do you?"

"roll!"

"Hahaha, Yi Xing, you are still a child, don't be so precocious, you have to like eight-year-olds!"

"Zhou Xingguo, your uncle!"

"Hahaha! I'm just kidding, why are you so impatient!"

"du~du~du~"

"Eh? Why did you die? I was just kidding!"

　Ask for a ticket!
