Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 831 You Are Too Cowardly

"This bookstore is very thoughtful."

On the second floor of Tongyoutongwu bookstore, Llorente said with a smile, looking at the author-specific bookshelves near the front row.

There are still three days before the official start of the World Science Fiction Convention, but Linde and Llorente have arrived ahead of schedule.

In addition to the two of them, Affleck is also planning to come over to join in the fun this time, but he has announced in the past two days that he will not come until the day when the World Science Fiction Convention officially starts, and he cannot stay for five days, at most three days. to leave.

According to Linde and Llorente, the reason why the two of them came several days in advance was to come to Zhang Zhong to eat and drink.

Before coming here, Lin De had heard of Tong You Tong Wu Bookstore, and this time he asked Zhang Zhong about it, and when he heard that it was near Zhang Chong's home, he asked him to take them to have a look.

When Zhang Zhong and the others arrived, there were a lot of people in the bookstore, and Qin Zhao was also helping his father look after the bookstore.

Qin Zhao has now become the mascot of the bookstore.

Qin Cheng got a desk behind the cash register. Normally, Qin Zhao would sit at that desk and read a book. Sometimes when the bookstore was less crowded, he would go to the small balcony on the second floor and lean against the railing to read.

Most of the people who come to this bookstore know Qin Zhao, and every time they come to see him, some people even come just to see him.

After all, although Qin Zhao is young, he is also a best-selling author. In addition to his young age, he has a lot of fans of his brothers, sisters, and even his mother.

Zhang Zhong brought Lin De and Llorente over, and Qin Zhao took the initiative to act as a tour guide, walking in front to introduce them to the situation of the bookstore.

Qin Zhao's English level is not bad, but his spoken English is not very good, and he can't speak well.

For things like language, no matter how talented you are, if you don't usually speak it, it will be difficult to speak it well when you speak it.

However, it is not difficult to communicate, as long as the pace is slowed down.

"Are you interested in getting your own exclusive bookshelf here?" Zhang Zhong asked with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Zhong's proposal, Llorente was very interested, "Yes, do you need any special procedures? What are the books on this shelf?"

"It's nothing special, just put some signed books of your own." Zhang Zhong said.

Qin Zhao also said, "If you agree, the bookstore will create an exclusive... sign for you... and stick it on the bookshelf."

During this period of time, Qin Zhao became much more cheerful. If it was before, he would most likely not have opened his mouth in this situation.

Llorente smiled, "This is easy, do I have to provide the book myself?"

"We can also..."

Before Qin Zhao finished speaking, Zhang Zhong interrupted him directly, "Of course, all the books are provided by the members themselves, and Daniel is certainly no exception."

"Well, okay, I will..." Llorente glanced at Linde, "Are you interested in getting your own exclusive themed bookshelf here?"

Linde has been dealing with Llorente for so long, so he naturally knew that Llorente had a lot of thoughts, so he had extra thoughts. Instead of answering him directly, he asked instead, "What do you want to do?"

Llorente said with a smirk, "If you have an idea, buy mine together when you go back to buy books, and I will thank you in advance."

"There is absolutely no such possibility. You didn't hear what pz said. The books in Tong You Tong Wu Bookstore are all provided by the members themselves. If I buy it for you, it will also be placed on my bookshelf, and the book will also be signed by me Name." Linde said.

"Hey, you have a good idea." Llorente quit immediately, "There is no joint name for this thing."

Linde said with a smile, "Aren't you the one who likes to sign autographs for fans the most? Signing a few books is as easy for you as drinking water."

He pouted again towards the crowd of onlookers, "Why don't you just call out on the spot and make sure that many fans will give you books."

Summer is the peak season for bookstores. Students are on vacation, and many of them will go to bookstores.

Moreover, the bookstore has air conditioning and seats, so staying here is more comfortable than at home, and it can save electricity bills.

When Zhang Zhong and the others came, they didn't avoid people, they just walked up like this.

The three of them walk together, as long as they are readers of science fiction, they can basically recognize at least one of them, let alone the Tong You Tong Wu bookstore, most of them are Zhang Zhong's fans.

After all, membership development started from Zhang Zhong's support club at the very beginning.

Although there were no security guards to maintain order, everyone still kept a certain distance from Zhang Zhong and the others, forming a large circle in the bookstore.

Everyone is a scholar, very restrained.

Most people looked at Llorente with piercing eyes, because Llorente is famous for being close to the people, and he often takes the initiative to sign for readers, sometimes even more positive than readers.

Hearing Linde's words again at this moment, the emotions of the people around were suddenly aroused. If it weren't for the fact that you can't make loud noises in the bookstore, everyone would probably call Llorente's name.

Linde was just joking, but Llorente was a little eager to try.

Seeing how Llorente was rubbing his hands and wanting to carry his gun into battle, Zhang Chong said quickly, "The bookstore has recently bought some new books, right? Qin Zhao, please take us there to have a look."

Qin Zhao understood, and immediately said, "There are many, please follow me, both of you."

Zhang Chong wasn't worried that Llorente's autographs would cause confusion to the readers, he just didn't want himself and Linde to be affected.

If Llorente ran to sign readers, neither he nor Lind could escape.

Then Qin Zhao introduced Linde and Llorente the operation of the bookstore and some special activities in the bookstore, such as the reading testimonial board.

And he also helped Linde and Llorente download the Tongyoutongwu app on their mobile phones.

Linde and Llorente are quite interested in the Tongyoutongwu app. They feel that this kind of online and offline reading discussion app is different from ordinary reading apps. It has a sense of reality and is easy to resonate.

But it is a pity that the Tongyoutongwu app is only available in Chinese for the time being. Although Linde and Llorente downloaded the app, they can't understand the content at all.

"I will ask them to set up an English section later, but even if they do, it should be a decoration. After all, there is only one Tong You Tong Wu bookstore in the whole country. It will take a long time to develop abroad." Zhang Zhong said.

"You can open one directly in the United States." Llorente suggested.

"It's not that simple. The model is still in the testing stage, and many problems need to be solved urgently. If you rush to the United States to open a branch, it is easy to go wrong."

Llorente shrugged his shoulders, "The problem can be corrected while looking for it, I think you are still timid."

Zhang Zhong also followed his example and shrugged his shoulders, "If you're brave enough, just start your own business, anyway, there's no patent protection for this one."

"Tch, I haven't seen any profit point in this bookstore for the time being, so let's forget about my manuscript fee."
