"Hey, hey!" Just when Chris was indulging in this fantasy novel called "The Witcher", he suddenly felt someone pat him on the shoulder. He turned his head and saw a man in his 30s, Looking at him with a frown, he said, "Are you a resident of 603?"

Chris was taken aback for a moment, looked at the man in front of him inexplicably and said, "Yes, what's the matter?"

"I'm a resident of 602. I remember that you don't subscribe to the California Times, so the newspaper you took is mine." The man poked the newspaper in his hand and said.

It was only then that Chris came to his senses, no wonder the man in front of him looked so familiar, he turned out to be his neighbor, but it's not his fault, who made him an otaku?It’s just that he was directly caught taking other people’s newspapers, which was really embarrassing. He quickly apologized and said: “Sorry, sorry, I’m a fan of Adam Baker, I couldn’t hold back when I saw his exclusive interview Read your newspaper."

"Adam Baker?" The man frowned slightly and said in confusion.

Chris quickly turned to the front page of the newspaper, pointed to the handsome young man on it and said, "That's him, the author of the comic "Druid" and the novel "Jurassic Park."

"Oh, I know about Jurassic Park, but I didn't expect the author to be so young." The man raised his eyebrows and looked at the handsome young man on the front page of the California Times in surprise. As a person who reads newspapers every day, although he didn't I have seen "Jurassic Park", but a while ago, news about the adaptation of "Jurassic Park" into a movie was flying all over the sky, and about this super best-selling book that sold tens of millions of copies worldwide in less than a year. knew.

"He also serialized a fantasy novel called "The Witcher" in the newspaper this time. I just accidentally indulged in the novel, and I will return it to you." Chris and the man in front of him apologized, and then quickly Reluctantly, he handed over the newspaper in his hand, and recommended it earnestly: "This fantasy novel is really good. Although I have only read two chapters, it is simply fantastic. Please read it, I love it." I want to promise you that I will never let you down."

"Ah, you're talking about "The Witcher"." The man laughed when he heard Chris mentioned "The Witcher", and said, "I know, I like it too, but this novel is also written by the writer named Adam. Is it?"

"You know? Isn't it just published today?" Chris turned to the page of the novel specially created this time, and pointed to the title of the book on it.

"No, it has been serialized for a week and has three chapters, but it is the first time that the author's name is marked out. I said why such an excellent novel didn't even include the author's name. It turned out to be because of this." The man Explaining to Chris, he took the newspaper from him and saw that there were indeed Chapter 4 novels serialized on it. He folded the newspaper and grabbed it in his hand with satisfaction, then said: "I remember that the author wrote a book about the novels on the Internet. A novel about dinosaurs has sold over [-] million worldwide at the end of last month, no wonder this novel is so well written."

"Yes, "Jurassic Park" was officially released in some English-speaking countries such as the UK and Australia in early July. As a result, the sales volume exceeded 200 million in one month, and it reached the top of the book sales list in various countries." Speaking of This Chris was a little excited to popularize science for the potential Adam Baker book fan in front of him: "If you like this "Witcher", I think you will definitely like "Jurassic Park". I strongly recommend it to you." Go check it out, you won't be disappointed!"

"Okay, okay. I see. If I have time, I will definitely try it." The man was obviously a little frightened when he saw Chris's frantic look. The newspaper went upstairs, and he had to eat breakfast and get ready to go to work, but he didn't have time to spend here with this crazy fan, but if it was really written by a writer, maybe he should buy a copy of "Jurassic Park" Look good too?

Chris looked helplessly at the man who ran away with the newspaper. He didn't even have time to ask his name. He felt a little regretful that he didn't succeed in Amway, but it's not a big deal now. The most urgent thing for him to do now is to go upstairs quickly. Grab your change and buy a copy of the California Times, no!You need to buy three copies, one for browsing, one for cutting out Adam's picture for collection, and the other for complete collection, all of which are the precious history of Adam.

Thinking about it, he didn't have time to care about the man who rushed up like a rabbit before him, so he hurriedly ran to his home. He hadn't finished reading the novel because of the other party's interruption, which made him feel a little itchy. , I can’t wait to get it and watch it once to enjoy it.

……

Adam opened his eyes. The light in the whole room was a bit dim, making it hard to tell whether it was day or night. He turned his head and looked at the clock on the table, which showed seven o'clock in the morning.

It was still raining outside the window. Since the rain suddenly started yesterday afternoon, there was no plan to stop. Because I was worried about the danger of slippery roads in rainy days, the speed of the car was controlled very slowly yesterday afternoon, and I dared not speed up, so it lasted until 08:30 in the evening Just arrived at the motel where I live now.

Because Adam has never been free and has not obtained a driver's license, Adam can change hands with Carol on normal roads, but after it rains, even if Adam wants to drive, Carol dare not let Adam take over, so yesterday they Before arriving at the motel, Carol drove for seven or eight hours without taking a break. When he got off the car and entered the motel, he was drenched in rain all over his body, and he was extremely embarrassed.

So, even though Adam wasn't very careful when he woke up, Carol still didn't wake up, but Adam didn't plan to wake him up. Anyway, it's raining so hard today, so it's definitely impossible to start. It's better to let him sleep well .

Car travel looks cool, majestic and handsome, but in fact, walking with Carol for so long, to be honest, is very tiring.

You can never predict what you will encounter during the journey, not to mention the confusion and fear when the map is wrong, the gasoline is insufficient, and the car parts are damaged in the wilderness. The sunshine with a few layers of skin off and the sudden rainstorm are enough to make these two daring boys suffer enough.

If it wasn't for Carol who was with her, Adam would never have tormented himself like this. Even though the journey and the scenery along the way, there are many good times in the middle, but Adam, who thinks it's too troublesome, if there is no Carol to accompany him , that would absolutely never make such a bold decision.

But with Carol by his side, no matter how many difficulties he encounters, even if the journey is too long and boring, he can always go on happily. Maybe this is the power of love.

Adam sighed softly, turned his head and kissed Carol's lips, saw his slightly frowned brows, and his slightly turned body because of the sudden disturbance, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

He got up and put on his clothes, washed up a bit, then picked up the phone and walked outside the door to make a call.Maybe it was because the other party had just gotten up, so he didn't wait long before hearing the other party answer the phone.

"Hey, it's me, Adam!" Adam first clarified his identity. Although the other party could recognize him through his voice, just in case, Adam said it himself first.

"Boss, I haven't heard from you for several days. Which state have you been to?" Lydia, who was thrown in California by Adam, answered the other side. He is used to getting up at six o'clock and eating around seven o'clock. , so when Adam called, she happened to be having breakfast.

"Illinois, probably. Anyway, I remember that the last city I passed by was Chicago, and I have been driving for two days now. I don't know if I have crossed the border now. If I haven't deviated, I have probably entered Indiana. But yesterday afternoon I met When it was raining, I just found a motel to live in, so I have to ask about the exact location, maybe I know.” Adam frowned and thought for a while, then said helplessly, the rain was so heavy that it was hard to see the road signs. In the end, it was all about luck, finding a road and driving in. Anyway, I could always come across a reliable motel on a certain roadside.

"Ha, do you need me to comfort you? I am in the warm and comfortable California right now, drinking coffee and eating croissants, and there is still bright sunshine outside." Lydia said with a smile. The two have worked together for almost half a year. Yes, because Adam has a good temper, although he often has some inexplicable thoughts that make people feel at a loss, but he is relatively a good boss, so the relationship between the two is gradually not as polite as it was at first, and they are quite friends. Feel.

"Forget it, for the sake of your hard work for me, I don't care about your troubles." Adam twitched the corner of his mouth, and then said helplessly: "By the way, how are things at work? Has anyone asked for help recently? Me?"

Speaking of work, Lydia also put away the smile on her face, and said seriously: "As for "Jurassic Park", last week, the sales records of several countries in the English-speaking region have been released, including In several countries including the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, the total sales volume is about 280 million. Including the sales volume in North America, the current global sales volume of "Jurassic Park" has exceeded [-] million.

For this, New Line is very satisfied, and urges us to put it on shelves in other countries as soon as possible, so that when the movie is released next year, all countries will have a strong viewing base, which will have a great impact on the global box office of the movie. . "

"How is the arrangement on the New Line? When will the filming start? If you want to catch up with next year's summer vacation, it's best to finish the shooting before Thanksgiving." When Adam heard the New Line, he thought of the script he gave them and the Although the storyboard of the movie is dominated by the sales copy of the so-called Bombay, after all, he is still young now, so I really don't know if he can make the ideal movie effect.

"It's almost there. The filming will officially start in Kauai, Hawaii at the end of this month. The preparations are almost complete, and the actors are gradually joining the team." Lydia reported to Adam about the preparations for "Jurassic Park". Condition.

"Well, I see. Although we are not involved in the specific filming process of the film, you still keep in touch with them all the time. Our producers must always make decisions according to the points I gave. Mirror draft shooting, there should not be too much deviation, if this happens, you must notify me as soon as possible.” Even so, Adam was still worried, frowning and arranged, as long as the other party can honestly follow his own If the filming is based on the original storyboard, and the sales of copies dominate, there will be absolutely no major problems. Adam still has confidence in this.
