After a week of quarreling among borrowers, the gang fight incident finally subsided gradually. After all, the family members of the deceased also knew that Guangming Middle School had no responsibility.Because the group of borrowers were not students of Guangming Middle School at all in terms of their school records, and the place where they fought was several blocks away from Guangming Middle School, the family members of the deceased came here to blackmail nothing more than to make some noise.

After achieving their goals, they naturally chose to compromise with the family members of the perpetrators.The family members of the perpetrators were not short of money. When the 10,000 yuan household was still worth showing off, after the compensation of [-]+ yuan was dropped, it seemed that nothing had happened.The family members of the deceased counted the money and left in satisfaction. The family members of the perpetrator also took their children to study in another school with a smile on their faces. Perhaps the only one who was sad was the mother of the deceased?

But Liu Miao didn't pay much attention to this matter, because the first wave of publicity work about his novel collection "First Love" had already been planned.One week before the final exam, Liu Miao will go to Nanhua City and nearby Mingzhu City to book signings. In addition, he will also accept exclusive interviews from Nanhua City's Vitality 880 and Mingzhu City's Feiyang 931.

What surprised Liu Miao the most was that Huadu Culture actually persuaded the morning news program "Good Morning!Dear viewers" conducted a 5-minute interview with myself.Although the publicity schedule and the final exam were very close, neither Teacher Hao nor Liu Yan objected to Liu Miao's interview.Their reasons are very similar. Just two days of rest will not have a big impact on Liu Miao's review plan. Only those who have not reviewed well need to sharpen their guns. For people like Liu Miao who have a long-term review plan, It is more effective to relax just before the exam.

It just so happens that Father Liu is also going to Nanhua City, because the newly renovated Baoqing Commercial Plaza will open on the day of the Spring Festival, and the contracts for the entry of several luxury brands have not yet been negotiated, so Father Liu, as the president of the group, has to personally Came here for an appointment at the headquarters.Because Liu's father took the initiative to drive Liu's mother and Liu Miao to Nanhua City, the journey was saved by two or three hours.

As soon as they arrived in Nanhua City, Liu Miao and Liu's mother were picked up by people from Huadu Culture, and Liu's father had to negotiate alone.

Of course, Liu Miao is not big enough to hold a signing event by himself, so Huadu Culture packed the four newly signed authors together to face the readers.Interestingly speaking, the four main authors of "Rose" happen to be middle school students, three men and one woman. Except for Liu Miao who is still in the third year of junior high school, the other two men and one woman are already sophomores.The relatively weak boy is from Tianfu Province, and his pen name is Jingming. He usually publishes fantasy novels on "Galaxy", and occasionally publishes some urban youth romance novels on "Rose".Interestingly speaking, many readers think that Jing Ming and Ximen Chuuxue's writing style is very similar, and some even think that Ximen Chuuxue is actually Jing Ming's vest specially used to write romance novels.The other boy who is taller is from Dongfang City, and his pen name is Zhou Hang.He basically writes a column on "Flower Season and Rainy Season", but sometimes he also writes some campus love articles and submits them to "Rose".As for the other girl from the north, she is Liu Miao's colleague, Su Yue, who is known as one of the new double walls discovered by "Rose" this year.Different from the tragic love stories written by Liu Miao, Su Yue has always been a heart-warming love story, so Su Yue has a much better reputation among readers than Liu Miao.

It just so happened that Huadu Culture published a collection of essays for them, so they got together to hold a signing event.Jing Ming released a collection of essays this time, "Reflection of the Years"; Zhou Hang released his first novel "No Trace"; and Su Yue released her collection of novels, " cherry".When the four children stand together, the picture is actually pretty good.Zhou Hang is the typical naughty bad boy, Liu Miao is the obedient good boy, Jing Ming is the skinny and painful boy, and Su Yue is the innocent girl next door. .

Jin Ruilin rubbed his hands excitedly, and cheered for the four people before starting the signing: "I still say the same thing, I will give you five years, if you are not in the top ten best-selling author income list after five years, I will Just retire!"

When Nanhua United Bookstore announced the opening, a group of people rushed in and went straight to the signing table for the four of them.The arranged reporters hurriedly took out their cameras or video cameras to record the overwhelmingly popular scene.Under the appeasement of the security guards and staff, the readers waiting for the book signing quickly lined up.Interestingly speaking, Su Yue's readers are all young boys, while Zhou Hang's readers are ignorant girls.The readers of Liu Miao and Jingming are both male and female, but Jingming's readers are generally younger, while Liu Miao's readers are mostly fresh people in society, and some are even OfficeLadies who have worked for several years.Although these four are newcomers that Huadu Culture intends to promote, they are only newcomers after all, so there are only about two hundred people in the entire book city waiting for their signatures.

Liu Miao looked at the expressions of the other people. Su Yue's face was full of undisguised disappointment;On the contrary, Liu Miao is quite open. He has also participated in some signing parties in later generations. Except for the author who is the top three in the annual sales list and can get thousands of people to attend the signing meeting, the rest It's not bad for the author to have a few hundred people.Some authors of serious literature have a signing event, and there are only a dozen or so people at the scene, but they are also very happy?After all, writers are not celebrities, and what others compare is word of mouth and sales in the industry. As for popularity, it's just a side effect.

Fans are naturally very excited to meet their favorite author, and they will even ask for a handshake or a group photo when they meet a few enthusiastic fans.The cool Zhou Hang naturally declined, as if strangers should not approach him.But the more Zhou Hang refused, the more excited his fans became, each of them was like shaking M.In comparison, Jing Ming is much more enthusiastic, and basically agrees to the fans' requests.In this way, it seemed that Jingming was very close to the people and had many fans, which made Zhou Hang next to him a little dissatisfied.And because Su Yue's fans are all young literary and artistic youths, they were so excited when they saw Su Yue that their faces were flushed with excitement, and even those beautiful pimples exploded one by one.Facing such a boy, no matter what request he made, Su Yue refused with a smile.Fortunately, boys should be rejected, but no one said anything about Su Yue.

Compared with the fans of these three companies, Liu Miao's fans are a little different.When "Rose" announced Liu Miao's real age, many readers and fans were taken aback.They think that the author who can write the first love so sadly and beautifully should be a 30-year-old woman with experience and background, but the real situation is a young boy who is still in junior high school.Fortunately, Liu Miao's appearance is good. "Rose" released photos of Liu Miao wearing a British student uniform and a Japanese student uniform one after another. Immediately, Liu Miao's fans became sister fans and mother fans one by one.The advantage of sister fans and mother fans is that they are highly loyal, and they completely treat idols as relatives.

After knowing Liu Miao's age and gender, this group of sister fans and mother fans are naturally gifts that boys of this age group will like.Fans with a bit of spare money would give them walkmans, nikes or adidas, and fans with a little cash would give them some reference books, which are useful for boys who are preparing for entrance exams.Moreover, mother fans and sister fans will not specifically ask Liu Miao to pose for an intimate group photo with themselves, they usually just stand together for a photo and then eat tofu from Xiaonencao along the way.Then Liu Miao showed a shy blush very cooperatively, which naturally made the group of mother and sister fans who took advantage of it tremble with laughter, while the mother and sister fans who were on the side angrily scolded the mother and sister fans who took advantage of it for not treating minors People "kill their hands".

Jin Ruilin, who was supervising the field at the side, said to Zhuo Ran, "Look, Liu Miao may have the highest achievement among these four people in the future. He has good writing skills and knows how to please his readers. My fans like pure and shy little brothers. , he can immediately pretend to be an ignorant and shy young lady. Look at his "First Love Trilogy" and the soon-to-be-serialized "Four Seasons Love Songs" series. "

Zhuo Ran naturally knew that Liu Miao was completely cooperating with the fans in acting, but what's so great about it?The fans were happy, his book was sold, and everyone was happy.But seeing his boss's indignation, Zhuo Ran covered his mouth and smiled and said, "Editor Jin, aren't you jealous of Liu Miao? Tsk tsk, that's right, you are getting old, and you can paint a few more layers of green paint. Miao's freshly baked little Zhengtai is so tender and delicious. I don't think you should be jealous, just accept your fate!"

At nearly forty years old, Jin Ruilin certainly wouldn't be jealous of a young boy who hasn't grown up. It's just a joke because of the good interaction between Liu Miao and his fans.Jin Ruilin is different from the general editors of magazines. He first worked as an intern editor at The New Yorker in the United States, so he developed his strict requirements for articles. "The New Yorker" can be regarded as the top publication in the literary and youth category in the United States, and the articles that can appear in this magazine are either particularly excellent or particularly novel.After learning the initial experience from The New Yorker, Jin Ruilin studied magazine management in Japan and also worked as a part-time editor at Weekly Bunshun.

As we all know, Japan's cultural industry is the most thorough representative of commercialization, and editors almost determine everything about authors.Before writing an article, the author needs to confirm the outline with the editor, and when writing the article, he must learn from the editor how popular the plot line is and when it is high.The tide and trough are all controlled by the editor, and the editor has the final say on whether it can even be finished.The most important thing is that in Japan, any author who wants to be famous will be set into a character by the editor, and then handed over to the assistant to realize it.To put it bluntly, Japanese editors are both the author's producer and the author's agent, and the author is more like an artist under the packaging of an editor and a magazine.

Among the four new writers, Liu Miao is undoubtedly the most cooperative. He knows what readers like and writes to cater to the market.Although in the eyes of some writers, Liu Miao is undoubtedly a very philistine writer, but some people go for literary history, and people like Liu Miao undoubtedly go for the literary market.This is like the debate between commercial films and literary films in the film industry, there will never be a result.Because of Liu Miao's characteristics, Jin Ruilin was willing to devote more resources to Liu Miao.For example, the radio interviews are available to all four authors, but "Good Morning!Audience" interview is unique to Liu Miao.

The two-day publicity ended soon, and Liu Miao also returned to Baoqing City from Nanhua City to prepare for the upcoming final exam.
