Chapter 99 - The Lively Signing Ceremony
Soon, the day of the signing ceremony arrived.
Under the arrangement of the publis.h.i.+ng house, the signing ceremony of "Nightmare" was held in Durham.
As the main character of the signing ceremony, Warfarin naturally arrived at Durham early.
She was warmly welcomed and flattered by the higher-ups of the publis.h.i.+ng house.
Warfarin was now the pillar of their publis.h.i.+ng house!
Because of the existence of Warfarin, the size of this publis.h.i.+ng house doubled.
And all of this was thanks to Warfarin and the influence of her excellent works.
Such a bestselling author, the publis.h.i.+ng house would naturally try its best to cater to the other party"s tastes.
To prevent her from being poached by other publis.h.i.+ng houses.
...
Durham was a relatively prosperous and developed city.
However, Flanders knew very little about this place. He only knew that the headquarters of the Mage a.s.sociation seemed to be here.
And after learning that the beautiful mangaka, Warfarin, was going to hold a signing press conference in Durham.
Countless fans rushed over from all over the country!
When the "Nightmare" signing press conference officially began, even Warfarin was stunned!
The entire venue was packed with people, and it was packed to the brim!
People were holding up signs everywhere, shouting Warfarin"s name.
Those who did not know would think that some big star had come to Durham!
Just by looking at this situation, one could tell how loyal Warfarin"s fans were!
This was something that ordinary cartoonists could not compare to.
This was actually not strange.
"Nightmare" could be considered a top-notch work!
Whether it was the plot, style, atmosphere, or character design, they were all almost perfect!
"Nightmare" was a work created by Warfarin who, under the stimulation of Flanders, burst out 1,000% of her inspiration!
It was very difficult for such a work to not be liked by readers.
Almost every reader was scared to death by "Nightmare".
Some were too scared to turn off the lights to sleep.
Some were scared to wake up in the middle of the night with nightmares.
Some were even scared to the point of peeing in their pants!
But the more it was like this, the more readers liked "Nightmare".
The most important thing was that this was an excellent horror novel.
Horror novels were a niche subject, but there were actually many people who liked them. Everyone more or less had the desire to stimulate themselves.
And excellent horror novels could satisfy this idea.
Therefore, when they heard that there was a horror novel launching a book signing, naturally, there would be people who would be curious, and they would want to see what kind of horror novel could be so popular.
That was why there was a situation where the book signing was full of fans!
Warfarin might even use her work "Nightmare" to reach the top and then look down on the whole country.
...
It was nine o"clock in the morning.
The signing ceremony had just begun.
The fans lined up in a long line and circled the square several times.
In addition to the first book of "Nightmare", there was also "Nightmare 2", which had just been published.
In addition, there were two special editions that were specially released to commemorate the first signing ceremony.
The fans who came here wanted to snap up the two-in-one special edition of "Nightmare" as soon as possible and also wanted to get Warfarin"s autograph.
For a time, the venue was extremely crowded and lively!
The original plan was to sign 1,000 books.
But they did not expect this book signing ceremony to be so popular, with so many fans!
They had no choice but to change the plan at the last minute, doubling the number of book signings.
That was 2,000 books.
2,000 novels, and each book needed to be signed!
To be precise, there were 2,000 slots. Basically, everyone would ask Warfarin to sign two to three books.
Warfarin signed from 9 am to 2 pm, and finally settled it!
During this time, she had to shake hands with her fans, thank them, and so on.
If it was the past, Warfarin would definitely be very tired.
But now, she was full of energy and did not feel tired at all!
Warfarin herself was also very surprised about this.
Although she did not know the reason, her intuition told her that it might have something to do with Flanders.
Maybe it was due to all the training she had from tossing and turning in bed every night.
...
Looking at her fans who were extremely disappointed and did not get their autographs, Warfarin was silent for a moment.
Then, she decided to sign another thousand copies!
She looked at the noisy square and pressed her palm down. An inexplicable aura emanated from her body, shocking the entire crowd.
Everyone quieted down and turned to look at Warfarin.
Warfarin bowed to all the fans and said seriously, "thank you for your love and support all this time.
I"ve decided to sign another thousand copies.
I hope that everyone can continue to support me and support "Nightmare".
Fans who haven"t purchased it yet, please line up in an orderly manner."
As soon as these words were said, those originally disappointed fans immediately became excited
"Sign another thousand copies? Isn"t that too understanding? I love you!"
"Wow? There are still a thousand copies? Hurry up and line up!"
"So gentle! I"ve realized that I"ve fallen in love with her!"
"Me too. I wonder if she"s willing to accept a girl"s Love?"
...
Amidst the waves of discussions, the fans who had not managed to buy the autographed version of "nightmare" lined up in an orderly fas.h.i.+on.
"Teacher Warfarin, it"s already 1,000 copies signed. Can your body still handle it?"
The editor asked worriedly.
"It"s fine. It"ll be done soon."
Warfarin waved her hand and said casually.
With her previous experience, Warfarin"s speed of signing the remaining 1,000 copies was obviously faster.
It was all done in two hours!
...
It was past four in the afternoon.
Warfarin stretched her body, revealing her graceful figure at a glance.
Her figure and appearance were becoming more and more perfect, worthy of the t.i.tle of a beautiful young girl novelist!
"Phew! The signing is finally over. Are there any other activities next?"
Warfarin asked the editor as she stretched her body.
The editor nodded and said, "there is still more. We have booked a restaurant nearby. You can go and have a meal with those fans later."
It was not easy to come up with such a huge sum of money, and the publis.h.i.+ng house was not stingy at all!
They booked a whole floor of a high-grade hotel nearby to give back to the fans.
There were 12 tables and eight people at one table.
In other words, besides Warfarin, there were 95 lucky fans who could have dinner with warfarin.
Of these 95 fans, most of them were rich fans.
They gave a lot of tips and gifts.
There were also a small number of lucky fans who had won the lucky draw.
Under the organization of the publis.h.i.+ng house, these fans and Warfarin came to the hotel.
During the meal, fans kept asking Warfarin for autographs and photos.
Warfarin agreed with a smile.
She did not come here to eat but to give back to her fans.
These small requests naturally had to be met.
