On the second day of the World Science Fiction Convention, Zhang Zhong got up early again.
Because he has a book signing this morning, starting at nine o'clock.
Zhang Zhong arrived half an hour early, but even so, when he arrived at the Zhiwang Exhibition Hall, he still found a large number of readers already queuing up.
The isolation tape provided by the security personnel was no longer enough, and the team began to spread out.
The hall on the first floor is so big. If there are thousands of people queuing inside, it will definitely affect the normal opening of other booths.
Zhang Zhong could only ask the staff to stop the queue and prevent people from queuing behind him for the time being.
Some readers who came a little late were dumbfounded when they saw the roadblock in front of them. They had obviously come in advance, but they were not even qualified to queue...
It was still a little while before nine o'clock, but Zhang Zhong still took his seat in advance, thinking that more people could get signatures.
After sitting down, Zhang Zhong stretched his muscles and waved to the first reader in line with a smile, "Come on, young man."
The young man walked up excitedly holding the book. He was in his twenties, his hair was messy and he didn't seem to take care of it, and he also had a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Zhang Zhong took the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" from his hand, turned to the title page, and said, "Young man, you should pay attention to rest. I think you are not in good spirits."
The young man rubbed his head shyly and said with a smile, "After you sign my name, I will go back to sleep. I played too late with my friends last night until three or four o'clock. I thought I would still have you today.
I didn’t go back to the autograph session at the exhibition hall. I waited at the entrance of the exhibition hall until it opened at eight o’clock and then I came in.”
No wonder he is ranked first.
"Thank you for your support. What's your name?"
"My name is Liu Qiang, Wen Dao Liu, strong and strong." Liu Qiang said excitedly.
It is said that the first one in Zhang Zhong’s autograph session will definitely get the special autograph. Sure enough, netizens were honest and they actually got the special autograph for him.
After Zhang Zhong signed the book, he returned the book to Liu Qiang.
There is nothing special about this special draw. There is no chicken soup or poetry. It is just a simple sentence: sleep more and pay attention to rest, to Liu Qiang.
But for Liu Qiang, this sentence is better than any special lottery. Zhang Da is caring about him.
After the first special draw, Zhang Zhong sped up and basically did not give any special draw in the middle.
Until he saw Anna and James again.
Seeing the couple, Zhang Zhong shook his head and said with a smile, "How do you always get in line? Do you have any tricks?"
They had communicated several times and they were quite familiar with each other. James smiled and said, "There's no secret. It's just to set the alarm clock earlier."
"You questioned my cosplay yesterday. Was my role as Lord Voldemort so bad?" Zhang Zhong said.
Faced with Zhang Zhong's reckoning, James said sheepishly, "I didn't know it was you, I thought it was some cosplayer who didn't understand the rules. But, does Voldemort really look like this? Will he be making a movie soon?"
"
"I can't tell you this." Zhang Zhong shook his head and signed the books for both of them. They were all signed "to", and their names were written on each book.
"Actually, we are getting married this year."
Hearing James' words, Zhang Zhong raised his head in surprise, "You said you are getting married?"
"Well, the time has been set."
Zhang Zhong remembered what he said when he met them at the Wangwang Exhibition Hall last year. He told them at that time that if they were going to get married, remember to tell him.
Unexpectedly, just one year later, they would actually get married.
"Is there an invitation?" Zhang Zhong asked.
"Yes, yes," James said quickly, and then found an invitation from his backpack.
Zhang Zhong took the invitation, which stated the time and place of the wedding. Zhang Zhong's name was even written on the list of invitees.
It can be seen that this invitation has been prepared in advance.
Zhang Zhong glanced at James meaningfully, "Okay, I've accepted the invitation. If I have time, I will definitely go to your wedding and give you a big red envelope."
"No, no, you just need someone to come over then." James said.
"Well, that's it, let the next reader come over."
Zhang Zhong continued to sign books, and Anna dragged James to the side, still muttering, "Pz is just trying to be polite to you, why do you still take it seriously? It's really stupid."
"Then what should I say? Say thank you for his big red envelope?"
"That's not okay. You should say that we are happy whether he comes or not."
"What's the joy in not coming?" James asked strangely.
"Aren't you happy to marry me?" Anna suddenly said, pinching her waist.
A big question mark appeared on James' forehead. Why did he bring up this topic?
"Of course I'm happy to marry you." James quickly made up for it.
"Why are you hesitating?"
"I hesitated - did I?"
"Look, you hesitated again."
…
Zhang Zhong was very happy when he heard that Anna and James were getting married. He and this reader were quite destined. Going back to two years ago, Zhang Zhong never imagined that these two people could be together.
This also made Zhang Zhong sigh, the world is really small.
Fans queuing up for autograph signings all felt strange. For some reason, Zhang Da seemed to be in a good mood today and kept laughing.
Seeing Zhang Zhong so happy, they thought they might be able to get a special signature, but unfortunately, Zhang Zhong never wrote any special signatures for others, but instead increased his power and signed them at full speed.
Until 12 noon, Zhang Zhong ended on time.
He can start signing tickets in advance because the queue has already lined up, but he cannot postpone the end because the exhibition hall does not belong to him alone today. There will be other people using this booth in a while, and he must finish on time and leave his seat on time.
Give it up.
As soon as Zhang Zhong's book signing ended, the hall on the first floor was no longer as crowded as before, and people began to flock to other booths.
After the book signing, it was dinner time, so Zhang Zhong went directly to his family and had dinner with them.
"Is this an invitation in your hand?" Xu Yuhan asked curiously when she saw the invitation in Zhang Zhong's hand.
When the couple heard Xu Yuhan mentioned the invitation, they both looked at Zhang Zhong's hand.
Zhang Zhong smiled and handed the invitation to Xu Yuhan and the others, "Do you remember the Anna I met in Paris before?"
"Remember, she is that beautiful little girl who also speaks Chinese very well." Hu Huifang remembered who Anna was and said with a smile, "Did she give you this invitation? She got married at such a young age?"
"Well, that's her. And the person she married is also my book friend, and we have talked before." Zhang Zhong told them the details of the matter.
After listening to it, several people said at the same time, "This is really a coincidence."
