The next day, when Zhang Zhongzadar was signing autographs, a beautiful blonde woman handed the book over and said this with a smile.
Zhang Zhong glanced at her, lowered his head to sign and said with a smile, "No need to thank me, go and thank Affleck. He gave you such audio-visual enjoyment."
He has said this sentence countless times. From the beginning, someone has mentioned the movie to him.
He decided that when the next person talked about the movie, he would at most give him a smile and not speak again. Otherwise, today's autograph signing would be delayed for who knows how long.
Zadar is not a big place and its infrastructure is relatively ordinary.
In order to promote this signing, the local government specially vacated the Zadar Sports Complex.
This stadium is not big and can only accommodate more than 9,000 people.
This kind of stadium is completely sufficient for a small place like Zadar.
Locals have never thought this stadium was small.
But today they suddenly discovered that this stadium was indeed too small.
It's so small that even a writer holding a book signing here would seem very cramped.
In order to prevent too many people from flooding into the stadium and to facilitate queuing, many readers who came to participate in the book signing could only queue in the small square outside the venue.
In fact, this is no longer as simple as a simple autograph session.
The Zadar government spent "huge sums of money" to decorate the stadium in advance, and you can see a large billboard outside the stadium from a distance, with Zhang Zhong's full-length photo on it.
Zhang Zhong has never taken publicity photos, and the photo Zadar used was a screenshot of a video when he went to receive the Nebula Award.
In the picture above, Zhang Zhong is standing in front of the microphone, holding the trophy in his hand and smiling.
There are a few large lines of words next to it, written in several languages: Welcome Zhang Chong to Zadar for a book signing.
There is a shop in the stadium, and today a large space was temporarily cleared in the shop to sell Zhang Zhong's works.
Now, whether under the billboard or in the store, there are a large number of book lovers gathered.
These fans from all over the world stood together and communicated, and some of those who had received signed books were holding up the books in their hands with a showy look.
Some die-hard 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 book signings in Los Angeles and Chicago. This book was signed at the previous book signing in New York. Haha, this book "A Bouquet for Algernon First" is amazing. It was signed by Jiang Yang at that time.
Countersigned.”
Other fans nearby were stunned when they heard this, "Did you queue up to sign all of this yourself?"
James smiled and said, "Of course, it would be boring to buy online. I have attended most of pz's autograph sessions. Unfortunately, I had something to do at home and couldn't go to the previous autograph session in Yanjing. Cupertino autograph session
I didn’t know the news in advance. You also know that the autograph signing in Cupertino will be very sudden.”
Many book friends gave him a thumbs up. After all, not everyone is familiar with pz's autograph sessions.
Not to mention that I have participated in it so many times, especially the Jiangyang autograph session, which was pz’s first autograph session. At that time, many people here didn’t know who pz was.
James also looked proud. He was not shy about showing his collection to others. He even customized a long cloth bag with many pockets sewn on it. Each pocket can hold a book.
.
But it's a pity that he has participated in so many autograph sessions, but he hasn't gotten a special autograph. But it doesn't matter, there will be many more autograph sessions in the future. He believes that he has been chasing pz, and sooner or later he will be able to get a special autograph.
Signed.
Looking at the lively scene around him, the young man smiled. He liked this atmosphere. Everyone had the same interests and came for the same purpose. Although they were strangers before, pz brought them together and there was no need to communicate with each other.
obstacle.
You also like pz, and I also like pz, then we are good friends.
Perhaps because James was more conspicuous with a pile of books, the reporters who came to interview him immediately noticed him.
"Hello, we are from cabs TV station. Can I ask you a few questions?"
When James saw a TV station interview, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and put the bag he was carrying across his chest and said, "Of course, what do you want to ask me?"
"May I ask where you are from?"
"I'm from Manchester City."
"Is this your first time attending Zhang Zhong's autograph signing?"
"Of course not."
"Then can you tell us how many times you have participated?"
James smiled and pointed to the bag in his hand, "Every book here represents a book signing that I have attended."
The reporter was surprised, "So many? As far as I know, pz doesn't have many autograph sessions. Did you attend every autograph session?"
"I was absent twice, one was for Yanjing and the other was for Cupertino," James said.
"Will you still attend the subsequent autograph session?"
James affirmed, "Of course."
The reporter nodded, "Thank you for accepting the interview."
"You're welcome."
The reporter said to the camera, "You can now see that tens of thousands of people have gathered outside the Viscik Stadium in Zadar, Croatia. And the reason why these people are here is not to watch a certain game.
The sports competition is for one person, and he is the famous writer-pz."
"Before this, Zadar has never held a signing of such a huge scale. When pz held signings in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago before, people were already concerned that a signing could reach such a scale.
I was surprised. When the autograph session 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, ten or twenty thousand people gathered here. Today, Zadar
The famous scenic spots in Zadar have fallen out of favor. People no longer have 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 night a year.
You can see it for hundreds of days. But people may only see pz’s autograph session once in their lifetime. I just interviewed more than a dozen people, and they come from various countries. There are also local people. They are not here for pz, but just
I want to come and join in the fun, after all, such lively scenes don’t happen often in Zadar.”
James looked at the reporters reporting, smiled, put away his book, and made a cheering gesture to the camera, shouting, "Pz, come on."
