Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 644 The Scale of the Signing Party
"Thank you Zhang Zhong, the movie is very good."

The next day, when Zhang Zhongzadar was signing someone's autograph, a blond beauty handed over the book and said such a sentence with a smile.

Zhang Zhong glanced at her, and said with a smile while bowing his head to sign, "You don't need to thank me, go thank Affleck, he gave you such an audio-visual enjoyment."

He has said this sentence countless times. From the very beginning, someone has mentioned the movie to him.

He decided that when the next person talks about the movie, he will at most give him a smile and won't speak again, otherwise today's signing will be delayed for a long time.

Zadar is not a big place, and its infrastructure is relatively ordinary.

For Zhang Zhong's signing this time, the local government deliberately vacated Zadar's comprehensive gymnasium.

The stadium is not big and can only accommodate more than 9000 people.

Such a stadium is completely sufficient for a small place like Zadar.

The locals never thought the stadium was small either.

But today they suddenly discovered that the stadium was indeed too small.

It seems very cramped for a writer who is so small to hold a book signing here.

In order not to flood the gymnasium with too many people, and to facilitate queuing, many readers who came to participate in the book signing could only line up in the small square outside the stadium.

In fact, this is no longer as simple as a simple signing.

The Zadar government spent "huge sums of money" to arrange the stadium in advance, and a big billboard outside the stadium can be seen from a distance, with Zhang Zhong's full body picture on it.

Zhang Zhong has never taken a promotional photo. The photo Zadar used is a screenshot of the video when he went to accept the Nebula Award.

In the picture above, Zhang Zhong stood in front of the microphone, holding a trophy in his hand, smiling.

There are a few large lines next to it, written in several languages: Welcome Zhang Zhong to Zadar to sign the sale.

There was a store in the stadium, and today a large area of ​​the store was temporarily cleared to sell Zhang Zhong's works.

Now whether it is under the billboard or in the store, a large number of book lovers have gathered.

These fans from all over the world stood together and communicated, and some people who had already got signed books held up the books in their hands showing off.

Some ashes fans even brought their own collections.

A young man from England is showing his collection to others.

"These two books were signed at the previous signings in Los Angeles and Chicago. This book was signed at the previous New York signing. Haha, this "A Bouquet for Algernon" is amazing. It was signed by Jiangyang Will sign."

The other fans next to them were stunned, "Did you queue up to sign all these yourself?"

James smiled and said, "Of course, it's boring to buy too much online. I attended most of the pz's signings. Unfortunately, I happened to have something to do at home before the Yanjing signing. Cupertino signed I didn’t know the news in advance. You also know that the signing in Cupertino will be sudden.”

Many book friends gave him a thumbs up, after all, not everyone can be familiar with pz signings.

Not to mention participating so many times, especially the Jiangyang signing event, which was the first signing event of pz. At that time, many people here did not know who pz was.

James is also proud, he is not stingy at all to show his collection to others.He even customized a cloth bag, a long one with several pockets sewn on it, and each pocket can hold a book.

But it's a pity that he participated in so many signings, but he didn't get a single one.But it doesn't matter, there are still many signings in the future, he believes that he has been chasing pz, and sooner or later he will be able to get a special signing.

Looking at the lively scene around him, the young man smiled. He likes this kind of atmosphere. Everyone is of the same interest and came here for one purpose.Although they were all strangers before, pz brought them together, and there was no obstacle in communicating with each other.

You also like pz, I also like pz, then we are good friends.

It may be that James is more conspicuous with a pile of books, and the reporters who came to interview him immediately focused on him.

"Hello, we are from Cabs TV station, can I ask you a few questions?"

When James saw a TV interview, he was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and put his cloth bag across his chest, and said, "Of course, what do you want to ask me?"

"Where are you from?"

"I'm from Manchester City."

"Is this your first time attending Zhang Zhong's signing event?"

"of course not."

"Can you tell us how many times you have participated?"

James smiled and pointed to the cloth bag in his hand, "Every book here represents a book signing I have attended."

The reporter was surprised, "So many? As far as I know, there aren't many signings for pz. Did you attend every signing?"

"I was absent twice, one for Yanjing and the other for Cupertino," James said.

"Then will you still attend the signing event later?"

James affirmed, "Of course."

The reporter nodded, "Thank you for the interview."

"you are welcome."

The reporter said to the camera, "As you can see now, tens of thousands of people have gathered outside the Visjik Stadium in Zadar, Croatia. The reason why these people came here is not to watch a certain game. Sports competitions, but for one person, he is the famous writer——pz.”

"Before this, Zadar has never held a signing event of such a large scale. When pz held signing events in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago before, people already expected that a signing event could reach such a large scale. Surprised. When the signing meeting came to a small city like Zadar, this surprise was magnified countless times. In such a small town with only tens of thousands of people, there are 2 people gathered here. Today, Zadar The famous scenic spots in Dar have fallen out of favor. People have no time to listen to the low singing of the sea organ, and they are not interested in the sunset. Because whether it is the sound of the sea organ or the sunset, as long as you don’t leave Zadar, there will be at least one You can see it for hundreds of days. But people may only see the pz signing event once in a lifetime. Just now I interviewed more than a dozen people, and they come from various countries. There are also local people, they are not here for pz, just I want to join in the fun, after all, in Zadar, such lively scenes are not often seen."

James watched the reporter report, put away his book with a smile, and made a cheering gesture to the camera, shouting, "pz, come on."
