Chapter 841 - 207: Shang Wanjun’s New Book Signing Event (Part 3)

Read all kinds of books, including economics and finance, philosophical thoughts, Chinese classics, psychology, and so on.

Three hours passed.

Shang Wanjun’s book signing event still had quite a few people lining up.

It’s just that she’s too beautiful and quite unique, some passersby were drawn in.

Even children browsing the bookstore told their parents, "Mom, Dad, I want that pretty big sister’s autograph too, I want to buy her book!"

When the parents saw, of course, the father was quite willing.

But the mom was not happy, how could anyone be this pretty?

Some mothers who brought their children didn’t have this worry, but upon seeing today’s book by Shang Wanjun, which turned out to be about teacher-student romance with quite a bold approach, it was even more startling.

Unable to resist the children’s clamoring, they bought Shang Wanjun’s previous book, which was much more normal.

Since there were so many people, the organizers had to extend the event by half an hour after consulting with Shang Wanjun.

Finally, thirty-five minutes later, Shang Wanjun could leave.

"Let’s go!"

Shang Wanjun came over and patted Xu Lin’s shoulder, "Let’s go grab some food, I need to thank you for accompanying me for such a long time!"

"How do you feel?"

Xu Lin asked her.

"Pretty good, first time to enjoy the feeling of being a celebrity, but later I may not participate in such book signing events, it feels a bit annoying with so many people and also quite tiring."

Shang Wanjun loosened her right wrist, today signing autographs made her hand tired from writing her name repetitively.

Xu Lin: "Overall, it should be a good experience, right?"

"Yes, pretty nice, the fans were quite enthusiastic too."

Shang Wanjun added, "The organizers just asked me whether I want to join the Jiangdu Writers Association, I said I’m not interested, what do you think?"

"Do you want to mix in the circles?"

"No, I don’t."

"If you don’t want to, there’s no need to bother."

Wherever literary figures gather, it’s never a peaceful place. History has repeatedly demonstrated that within literary circles, there is a group of true gentlemen, but also a bunch of scoundrels. Moreover, organizations like writers’ associations often have severe bureaucratic tendencies, not worth bothering with.

Especially in modern society, besides bureaucratic tendencies, some of them even receive salaries from foreign countries, quasi-traitors indeed. The writings of literati can be quite treacherous, and average folks can hardly tell.

"Then let’s not pay attention to them, let’s go eat, what do you want to eat? My treat."

"Let’s just eat something casual, spend a few hundred bucks, doesn’t have to be too fancy this time."

"Mm, alright."

"Once we’re full, where would you like to go?"

Shang Wanjun shook her head.

"Then, later I’ll take you home, or back to school?"

"Back to school."

Shang Wanjun thought for a moment, she didn’t have any place to go nor many friends, she might as well go back to school.

After the two finished eating, Xu Lin took Shang Wanjun back to school.

Xu Lin then drove back home to grab his laptop, and continued driving all the way to Hengdian to check out the film set.

Lately, Xu Lin plans to have Xie Ting and the others sing the remainder of his songs from "Dajing Dynasty", specifically those dozen songs which need dedicated people to perform. Once done, Xu Lin can complete the task.

He’s composed a total of thirty pieces of music, with each worth a million, totaling thirty million cash.

In the evening, Xu Lin checked into a major hotel in Hengdian.

He saw messages from Rong Xiyi when he opened his phone.

"Xu Lin, guess what I saw? I saw our teacher is trending on social media!"

"Which teacher?"

Rong Xiyi quickly responded.

"Of course, it’s Teacher Shang Wanjun! She’s become a well-known writer, a beautiful woman writer!"

"Really?"

Xu Lin pretended not to know.

"Truly, take a look!"

Rong Xiyi sent a screenshot, it was of Shang Wanjun’s trending screenshot, currently ranked around thirty or so, neither too high nor too low.

Trending: So this is a beautiful woman writer.

Rong Xiyi also sent a screenshot of the trending content, which was about Shang Wanjun’s book signing event today.

She did get famous, for media that chase after the wind and shadows, wherever there’s a sensation, they’ll be present.

The term "beautiful woman writer" alone is quite attention-grabbing.

People instinctively think it’s just a catchy headline created by the media, but upon clicking in, they find it’s not false; indeed, the beauty is genuine, a tall 1.7-meter big beauty, and also a bestselling author.

According to the comments section, more astonishingly, she’s pursuing her doctorate at Fuda University, specializing in theoretical physics.

Additionally, some comments say that her real name is indeed Shang Wanjun, she’s their senior, currently indeed pursuing her doctorate at Fuda University.

Shang Wanjun truly became famous, though not spectacularly, she did gain some notoriety.

"Xu Lin, Teacher is really outstanding!"

Rong Xiyi couldn’t help but say, "I didn’t expect her to write as well, and become a bestselling author. I read in the news, her first book’s copyright was bought for twenty million!"

The twenty million was the total price, divided evenly between Shang Wanjun and the Zhu Yue Publishing House, plus a twenty percent tax.

"She’s pursuing her doctorate at Fuda University, how can she not be outstanding? Besides, she’s reading constantly, it’s peculiar if she’s not excellent. Can you persist in reading daily?"

"That’s true! Xu Lin, what are you up to?"

"At Hengdian, staying at the film set for a couple of days."

"Is it cold over there?"

"A bit chilly indeed."

"Make sure to keep warm!"

"Okay."
