The first fan came to sit on the sofa in front of Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan took the initiative to shake hands with the other fan and said hello, then took the physical book from the other person's hand and began to listen carefully to what the other person said.
Generally, fans who attend the autograph signing have prepared some words or made some small requests to come to the scene.
"I have liked you for a long time. This time I was so lucky that I didn't expect to win the lottery. I... was too nervous..."
Noticing that the fan's mood had become tense and somewhat incoherent, Jiang Yuan quickly reached out and patted the other person's shoulder, "It's okay, just speak slowly."
"I have written something I want to say in the letter, I hope you can read it." The fan then took out a beautifully wrapped letter from his pocket.
"Okay, I'll take a look." Jiang Yuan glanced at the envelope and found that the stamps had been pasted on it.
"It was originally intended to be sent to the company's mail collection point." The fan explained.
Because there are so many fans sending letters, the studio has also specially set up a service to receive letters.
"If you send a letter to this address, you can receive it, right?" Jiang Yuan pointed at the envelope and asked.
"Okay." The fan was stunned, but quickly responded and nodded excitedly.
"I will reply to you later. Remember to accept the letter. Do you need to write anything?" Jiang Yuan collected the letter and then pointed to the blank title page and asked.
"Yes," the fan nodded, and then began to explain the requirements for the To signature. Basically, he could write his name and one sentence.
As for the matter of replying to fans, it was not Jiang Yuan's whim, but a part of the program "Yuanyouhui" that he originally planned to do.
After all, ever since Jiang Yuan started receiving letters, some of the boxes prepared by Jiang Yuan's home could no longer fit.
Although Jiang Yuan basically opens the letters and reads some as soon as he receives them.
But since most of them are on the way to travel, it is difficult to read them all, and even if they are, it is difficult to give any reply.
At most, I just read some letters in previous Vlogs and responded verbally.
This time, after discussing with Li Xiaoyue in the production of "Yuan You Hui", we also specially added a link to write back handwritten letters to fans, which happened to be more in line with the slow-paced style of the show.
"It's signed, I wish you a happy life!" Jiang Yuan handed the signed book to the fan.
On the title page, in addition to the signed blessings, in the concluding paragraph, Jiang Yuan also drew the Q-version avatars of the fans in front of him in the form of simple drawings, making the fans look surprised.
"The painting is so cute." Fans exclaimed.
Although it is very simple, it still outlines the basic features such as hairstyle.
"Also, this is for you." Jiang Yuan took out a wrapped sunflower from under the table and handed it to the fans, symbolizing the end of the signing time.
One and a half minutes to control it just right.
"If there's nothing urgent, you can take a rest in the bookstore and prepare snacks." Before the next fan approached, Jiang Yuan did not forget his final instructions.
For fans, this kind of signing experience is undoubtedly very complete, and they feel like everything is answered.
Even at the end of the autograph signing, I received free flowers. Fans who were still waiting were paying attention to the news of the autograph signing, and their mood became more and more exciting.
The autograph signing has just begun, and Jiang Yuan is still full of energy and has a lot of interactions with fans.
However, many of the fans present came to the scene after careful preparation.
There are fans who have more sincere feelings, and there are also many fans who have prepared various activities and brought various hot challenges that they want Jiang Yuan to complete, such as hand gesture dances and the like.
Others brought some specially customized headwear for Jiang Yuan to wear.
An hour of signing time passed, and Jiang Yuan had already changed into three different headwear.
Jiang Yuan himself made a mental calculation and found that the ratio of singer fans to omega fans was about half and half.
At the same time, because it was held in LA, there were more European and American fans who won the lottery and came to the scene, but there were still many Asian international student fans who also got the chance to win the lottery and came to the scene.
After an hour passed, another staff member brought Jiang Yuan a large bouquet of blue roses.
The previous sunflowers have been given away, and for the special flower gifting session prepared for the autograph signing, Jiang Yuan also prepared several flowers with better meanings for random gifting.
After changing the flowers, taking a break as a break, Jiang Yuan stopped for a short while and then started signing books again.
The autograph session is proceeding in an orderly manner, and on some social media platforms such as Yuan Universe, some fans have begun to post live photos of the autograph session and related repos.
[A note after the autograph signing: I looked really cool today, and he looked very cold. I was a little worried at first and didn’t know how to speak, but after saying hello, I felt that the relationship had become much closer (ps at the beginning)
Shake hands when saying hello)
Then we started chatting and writing to sign the content. During the process, we listened carefully to everything we said, and even took the initiative to take the phone when we took a group photo.
When signing, I also drew animated avatars for each person, and finally received a sunflower with a group photo [picture]]
[repo: Who knows? I felt it smelled so good during the autograph session. When I asked what kind of perfume I was wearing, I asked my assistant to bring it to me and spray it on me several pumps! 】
[About the fact that we filmed a challenge video together during the autograph signing [video]]
[Today I specially brought a face necklace and glasses to the scene. They don’t fit well with today’s look! 】
[Onsite Times: As a random gift, the sunflowers are replaced by blue roses, which is not too romantic.]
The news about the feedback on the repo signing has attracted a lot of attention among fans of Jiang Yuan and Omega.
According to fan lingo, this type of live pictures and videos are called feeding.
After all, among the huge number of fans around the world, only 300 fans can arrive at the venue to participate in the signing.
Fans who cannot be there can only feel the atmosphere of the scene through this type of on-site feedback, so as to understand relevant information.
[Thanks to everyone present for feeding me!]
[Oh my god, just reading the description makes my heart beat crazy. 】
[Today’s look is really good. I wonder when I can play this type of role again. 】
[What I know is that the style of a new book signing is no different from an album signing.]
[Today I am a bit too handsome. When will it be my turn to sign autographs! 】
[Oh my god, did you actually say that you would reply to the letter? Then wouldn’t it mean that you can get a handwritten letter and learn from it!】
【Can’t you give me one of the flowers on site? 】
[And I, your friend, can only look at the live pictures at home, and even the new books are still on the way to be shipped, but you have already met me and can even read the new books in advance. 】
——
An afternoon of autograph signing is bound to be lively for Jiang Yuan’s fans.
As the number of fans signing has increased, the number of repos on the Internet has also begun to increase. For fans, it is like watching a live text signing.
The scene was lively enough that even if it was not their turn or fans who had already sold out the signings, they could still use their mobile phones or cameras to capture Jiang Yuan's real-time dynamics from a distance.
After all, even the front row of a concert will not be as close as it is now.
"Record a happy birthday song?" During the autograph session, there will also be moments when Jiang Yuan needs to sing.
When Jiang Yuan sang Happy Birthday to his fans who were about to celebrate their birthday, the bookstore suddenly became a lot more lively.
This excitement first spread from outside the bookstore to inside.
Although the door of the bookstore has been fenced because of the book signing, there are still many fans outside waiting for Jiang Yuan to sign books after get off work.
Even because the materials are relatively well prepared, Jiang Yuan's staff will go out to deliver a wave of snacks every once in a while.
It was obviously not an ordinary person who could cause a sensation at this time. Even when he signed autographs for fans, he noticed some movement.
He raised his head and took a look, and then he saw four figures walking towards him, like some British "F4".
After Jiang Yuan took a serious look and the slightly exaggeratedly dressed "F4" approached, Jiang Yuan realized that he was still an acquaintance.
Arriving at the book signing, it was Karl, whom I met through the last Golden Dagger Award, and three other mystery authors.
After all, they had attended a party together and played scripts together, so Jiang Yuan was quite impressed by these faces.
Especially recently due to the publication of the second volume of "Sherlock Holmes", I have been in close contact with Carl.
Mainly because the new book sent Carl a trial copy for recommendation, but what he didn't expect was that while Carl was reading this book, he would send messages to Jiang Yuan from time to time to talk about the plot.
And because there are many short and medium stories in this book, there was a lot of chatting back and forth.
Jiang Yuan even had the idea of recruiting Karl to adapt the script for him.
After Carl and others arrived at the scene, they also strode towards Jiang Yuan's direction.
Obviously, they came to the scene to support Jiang Yuan. After all, these people are quite famous in the mystery novel world.
Some book fans who had won the lottery and came to the scene had already begun to cheer when they saw this kind of battle.
At this time, the people sitting opposite Jiang Yuan were just fans of Jiang Yuan. They didn't know much about Karl and others, but when they saw the camera filming these people and the autograph signing time was almost here, they got ready to get up.
However, Jiang Yuan did not neglect his fans just because of the arrival of Carl and others.
"Please sit here for a moment. The signing is not over yet. There are a few friends who need to say hello." Jiang Yuan was a little embarrassed because the signing was interrupted.
When I stood up to greet Karl and others, I didn't forget to ask the staff to get a cup of coffee for the fans.
"The scene is so lively! We haven't seen each other for a long time." Karl smiled and shook hands with Jiang Yuan.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Yuan looked at the outfits of several people carefully, and his expression was a little weird.
We were far apart before, so I just felt that a few people were dressed a little more solemnly.
But after taking a closer look, I discovered that these people...
"You saw it, hahaha, I said you can definitely tell that I was the one who took it." Karl smiled proudly at his companions.
Then he began to explain to Jiang Yuan, "I saw that it was your first time signing a book today, so I just wanted to come to the scene to say hello to you and help promote it, so I tried to follow the looks of several characters in the book.
Matched it up."
"Sherlock Holmes, I guess." Carl said and made a pose based on the silhouette of the poster next to him.
"It's quite similar." Jiang Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth. He really didn't expect that even if Carl and others came, he would actually produce a cosplay at his autograph session.
"We'll just take a photo with you. You can do some autograph signings first, and we'll just browse around the bookstore by ourselves." Carl then patted Jiang Yuan on the shoulder and said.
Several people then walked towards the center of the living room.
After approaching, Jiang Yuan also extended his hand to gesture to the fans, and introduced to Karl and others, "This is my fan who is studying abroad in this city."
"This is Karl, this is..." Before the photographer was ready to take a group photo, Jiang Yuan also introduced each other to the fans, Karl and others.
For fans, drinking coffee at this moment is a bit flattering.
Originally, the signing time was coming soon, so it was okay to be kept in the seat. Not only was he not left out, but he was introduced to Karl and others.
Although it doesn't seem to be a very important thing, this attitude makes fans feel enough attention.
"Then why don't we take pictures together later?" In Karl's opinion, this kind of introduction was quite solemn, so he simply suggested.
"Do you want to take a photo together? I will take a separate photo and send it to you later." Jiang Yuan asked the fans for their opinions.
After obtaining the other party's consent, we started taking photos with Karl and others.
After taking a few photos, when the fans came on stage to take photos together, other fans at the scene immediately let out envious cries.
Noticing this, Jiang Yuan also thought about it for a while and then took Carl and others to take a group photo with all the fans in the audience, preparing to upload the photo to Yuan Universe later.
The arrival of Carl and his friends was a small episode in the signing of the day.
After the group photo ended, a few people also strolled around the bookstore and chatted with fans casually, just like a small salon.
Jiang Yuan continued to concentrate on signing autographs for fans.
However, after a few people attended the event and even cosplayed the photos of the characters in the book and uploaded them to the Internet, they were quickly reprinted and reported by the media and became a topic, which indeed played a certain publicity role.
Although the fans at the signing event got the new book immediately, they basically had no intention of reading it and focused more on the signing and Jiang Yuan.
But the scene outside of the book signing is different, although technically the book won't be officially released for another day or two.
However, due to the need to distribute the goods, some readers got the new book at this time and immediately read the novella "Uncanny Valley".
The story still begins with the conversation between Watson and Holmes.
