Chapter 258: Best seller, are you here again?
"Yes, it is a bit troublesome."
"If we have time for the activity..."
"What are the precautions for the activity? I will try my best to cooperate. ”
Gu Lu arranged the second autograph session, and the venue was still the Hengxin Building on Xiaoxin Street. The difference is that this time Gu Lu specifically asked the publishing house to hand over some matters to him.
Try new things to get your chance.
To use an analogy, Gu Lu is equivalent to an "intern". The publishing house has done most of the things, and the things he is responsible for are only minor things.
“This is my first time hosting such an event, so I couldn’t resist the sugar-coated bullets!” Gu Lu sighed after hanging up the phone.
The manager of Xinhua Bookstore (Xiaoxin Street Branch) answered the phone and praised, "Teacher Gu Lu is simply the pride of us mountain city people" "My daughter and myself are all teachers Gu Lu's Book fan" ""The Little Prince" and "The Diary of the Laughing Cat" are the best-selling fairy tale novels in our bookstore"...
After the praise was over, the store manager asked Gu Lu to delay after the book signing. Take a few minutes to participate in the bookstore's small activities.
The emotional value of the other party is already in place. Anyway, it only takes a few minutes to form a good relationship.
The synthesis list is not triggered.
"If you try with intention, it may not trigger, but if you don't try, it will definitely not trigger." Gu Lu thought this way, but he had a good attitude.
Forty-eight hours countdown to enter the "Flatland" signing event.

……
The two people Gu Lu met were Zhou Lin and Yao Xiaoju.
The latter is the foreign copyright agent that Gu Lu is most satisfied with when asking questions online and making phone calls.
Because of this, when Xiangchuan wanted to represent Korean copyright, he had reservations.
I made an appointment with my first-generation deskmate in the afternoon after school in the shade of a tree in the corner of the playground.
On the top of a willow tree in the moonlight, people meet after dusk. There is a little taste, but currently it is a soft-boiled egg-colored sunset on the yellow horn tree.
"Gulu, you are so anxious, did you bring me some gifts in Neon?" Zhou Lin's first words when they met.
It is no different from the strange girl in Gu Lu's impression, a sunny and lively high school beauty.
The text in QQ chat is relatively slow to express emotions. But Gu Lu could still feel that Zhou Lin was in a bad mood, and she was very concerned about her grandmother's death.
So now...
"There must be gifts," Gu Lu said, "but I don't put them on me."
"In the classroom?" Zhou Lin asked.
"No. Come on, I'll take you to my secret base, where the gifts are." Gu Lu turned around and walked towards the school library.
Zhou Lin paused for a second before following behind.
Adults have adult thinking logic. For example, Gu Lu could tell that Zhou Lin was holding on to her emotions because both her words and movements were slower than before.
It seems to be covered with a transparent plastic film.
But high school life also made Gu Lu grow up a lot. To be precise, it was the experience that made Gu Lu learn to empathize with others.
I didn’t say anything like, "If you feel sad, just cry."
Think about it, facing the emotional flood of the death of a loved one, Zhou Lin finally built a spiritual defense dam so that she could go to school.
Don't break it.
We walked to the school library in a few minutes. It was dinner time in the cafeteria. There were not many students and only a few teachers came and went.
Gu Lu could not recognize all the teachers in the school, but all the teachers in the school knew him.
Looking at her, the teacher even said, "Classmate Gu Lu, are you eating so fast?"
Look, what is popularity? Zhou Lin was amazed.
Open the door of the social office.
“One of the four major mysteries of No. 8 Middle School is who is running the publication club? It’s actually you.” Zhou Lin walked into the club activity office.
What she saw now was an upgraded version, which not only had computers, but also printers, fax machines, and water dispensers.
It is said that it was eliminated by the Academic Affairs Office... But when it was brought here, Gu Lu obviously felt that it was brand new.
"The four major mysteries, have you heard the gossip in the school?" Gu Lu closed the door before asking.
"Of course I must know," Zhou Lin said. "It was very popular last semester, but I couldn't find the answer. This semester there will be no discussion."
"This little place is really nice. It’s better than our class teacher’s office.” Zhou Lin said, “When our class teacher wants to print something, he has to go to the Academic Affairs Office.”
Open the drawer and take out the gift.
The value of Li Guyuan’s gift is about the same, a “dice to solve procrastination” and peripherals co-branded with Pokémon.
“Dice?” Zhou Lin asked, “Can I take it apart now?”
"Of course."
The packaging was torn off in a few seconds. Neon really has all kinds of peripherals. Anyway, Naruto's scroll with the detonating talisman on it opened Gu Lu's eyes. Can I wipe it more cleanly with this thing?
Zhou Lin saw the specific appearance of the gift.
The six sides of the dice are: Pikachu with text written on it, wait one minute before doing it, Bulbasaur, wait 10 minutes before starting, Vulpix should do it tomorrow, Charmander start doing it immediately...
< br>"This is the secret weapon. It is said to have solved the procrastination problem of tens of thousands of Neon people!" Gu Lu introduced the six-sided Japanese.
"Resolve procrastination?" Zhou Lin asked, "Only one of the six tasks is to start immediately. There is a five-sixth chance that it will be delayed for a while longer. I'm afraid the procrastination will be more serious."
"No, no, no, delaying for one minute is delaying for one minute. If there is an accurate time, even if it starts in ten minutes, it will be good." Gu Lu said.
It seemed to make sense, Zhou Lin rolled the dice on the table.
"The dice have been thrown!" Zhou Lin suddenly shouted loudly and asked later, "Did you have any momentum just now? Did you look like Caesar." "Do you listen to the truth or lies?" Gu Lu said.
This response made Zhou Lin pause, "Truth!"
"It's very similar." Gu Lu said, "Female version of Caesar."
"What about lies?" Zhou Lin asked again.
"The lie is, it's not too similar." Gu Lu said, "Caesar himself could only get second place in the Caesar imitation competition."
Zhou Lin laughed when she heard this, He laughed very loudly and giggled, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
At first, Gu Lu thought it was a wisecrack from later generations, making him laugh like this.
But obviously not, you look at the giggles, how much like crying.
Gu Lu waited until Zhou Lin's laughter subsided before speaking, "Do you like it?"
"I quite like it. I didn't expect you, Gulu, to remember that my stationery bag belongs to Pikachu." Zhou Lin said.
Uh--actually Gu Lu didn't remember this at all. He just remembered the other person's lucky pen when he was choosing a gift, so he bought it naturally.
It's good to make mistakes, Gu Lu thought silently.
“Can I use my computer to steal food? Is it connected to the Internet?” Zhou Lin asked.
“Of course it’s online.” Gu Lu said.
The next thing I saw was Zhou Lin starting to steal food, parking spaces, and her space, which was really beautifully decorated.
About ten minutes later, Zhou Lin suddenly asked, "Gulu, do you still remember Chen Xue?"
At the mention of his name, the dusty memory in his mind was wiped away. He was a junior high school classmate with a beauty mark at the corner of his eye, a very fiery personality, and a very filial heart.
"What's wrong?" Gu Lu nodded, "Remember."
"She dropped out of technical secondary school and asked me to borrow living expenses a few days ago to prepare to work." Zhou Lin said.
It’s hard to evaluate. If you have not graduated from technical secondary school, you must be underage. It is not safe to work at such a young age.
In his previous life, Gu Lu also went out to work when he was very young. At present, the legal provisions "prohibiting the recruitment of child labor" in various provinces and cities are not so strict.
But when minors go to work, they can easily be cheated.
Doing the same thing, the salary is only half or something. Although Chen Xue has a fierce personality, she is still young and will definitely suffer some hardships.
"Maybe he is short of money." Gu Lu remembered that Chen Xue's parents were not responsible, but they could pay for living expenses.
She and her grandma depend on each other, but what if her irresponsible parents stop paying for living expenses? Gu Lu thought so.
"It's possible." Zhou Lin said, "So I must study hard and then find a good job after graduation."
"My grandma told me that girls must have their own jobs," Zhou Lin said.
In fact, the other party's words ended in an anticlimax, and Gu Lu didn't understand the meaning of suddenly mentioning Chen Xue.
But the other party is full of fighting spirit, which is what Gu Lu wants to see.
Zhou Lin said, "If I live a bad life, then what my grandma taught me will become in vain."
The way she misses her grandma is to do what her grandma expected. that way, have a better future.
It seems that he doesn't need to be comforted. Gu Lu couldn't help but sigh, the strange girl's heart is really strong.
"Ding——" The conversation between the two made Gu Lu trigger the synthesis list, and there seemed to be a bell ringing in his brain.
"Last semester, I was a little lax in the final exam, and I ranked second in the whole grade." Zhou Lin said, "I have to work hard this semester."
Gu, who was originally going to check the synthesis tags Lu was attracted by the words of the strange girl.
What words? In addition to being the first in age, the co-author is slack? Gu Lu looked at Zhou Lin, who had her hands on her hips and a sly smile on her face.
An emoticon package: "If you make me awesome, I will put my hands on my hips."
Those who show off will be punished, and that is Gu Lu now.
The two chatted over dinner. Zhou Lin was going back to Qingbei Class, while Gu Luneng went home directly.
On the way home, Gu Lu studied and found three labels in his brain [Annual Champion of the Ranking] [The scam was written to the extreme] [Adapted and filmed in China, Japan and South Korea].
The second label looked so familiar, and there was inexplicable excitement on Gu Lu's face.
Is it possible? !
Writing deception to the extreme, two novels on earth have been awarded such praise.
One belongs to Grandma, but Grandma still exists in the parallel world.
Then the only thing left is - "Bestseller, is it you? Is it really you?"
"The Devotion of Suspect X", one of Keigo Higashino's four masterpieces.
Even though the top of the four masterpieces is "White Night Walk", Gu Lu personally prefers Suspect.
What sentence triggered the conversation with Zhou Lin just now? Could it be that "if you are not happy, everything I do will be in vain", it seems a bit similar.
"You must make careful calculations. This book has been on the best-selling list in China, Japan and South Korea."
Gu Lu tried hard to recall the content, what items in the novel, he is now Can be owned and trigger synthesis.
It can’t be canceled like "Jieyou Grocery Store" again.
