Chapter 58 Book signing event
"Senior, I knew you would call me, so I thought of talking to you over the phone." Yan Ai said.
"Well, go ahead." An Chi was really curious.
"I met a senior student in college who majored in computer science. She's actually a hacker, so I asked her for help."
"Hacker?!" An Chi was shocked. After realizing he had just yelled too loudly, he quickly whispered, "Junior, will there be any legal consequences if I ask a hacker for help?"
Yan Ai also lowered her voice, "That's why I didn't dare to tell you at first, for fear that you would worry."
How could An Chi not be worried? He felt terrified just listening to this. "No one else knows about this, right?"
Yan Ai returned to her normal voice and said, "Don't worry, senior, no one else will know about this except us."
"That being said, don't take this kind of risk again. It's too scary," An Chi warned fearfully. "Actually, if we follow the normal procedures, we might not be unable to win the case."
Of course she will win, Yan Aixin said, but the price she will pay is not small, and the punishment for the rumormongers is negligible, almost nothing.
But she agreed immediately, "Okay, I won't take such a risk next time."
An Chi seemed to sigh, but when he spoke again, he exclaimed, "Kyoto University is indeed worthy of being Kyoto University. It is indeed full of talented people. I have to admit it."
Yan Ai did not respond because she knew that senior An Chi also wanted to apply to Peking University, but unfortunately he failed the entrance exam, which became a regret in his heart.
"Oh, junior, there's one more thing. Your new book is selling like crazy because of this incident. It was sold out and pulled from the shelves in less than half a day. The same thing happened to the previous books. So the editor-in-chief is urging me to persuade you to hold a book signing event to capitalize on your success."
In the end, An Chi changed the subject himself.
"But I've already rejected it for you. I've even thought of a reason for you. I told the editor-in-chief that if we force you to hold a book signing, you'll terminate the contract immediately without further negotiation."
Without waiting for Yan Ai to speak, An Chi added another sentence.
"Thank you, senior. I'll treat you to a meal some other day." Yan Ai smiled, feeling warm in her heart.
Her identity as a national scientific researcher needs to be kept confidential, which means she cannot be too high-profile in her daily life.
At first, she chose to write novels to cover up this job, thinking that when she was writing in seclusion, even if she disappeared for a period of time, it would not arouse others' suspicion.
But she didn't expect that her novels would become famous. In desperation, she had to refuse signings and interviews and try to reduce her presence as much as possible.
So she has always been grateful to An Chi for bearing all the pressure for her, and it is only right to treat him to a meal.
"Okay, I'll make a note of this meal. I have to go to the printing factory tomorrow to follow up on the progress. I'll contact you later."
"Well, as long as it's the weekend, I usually have no problem. You can choose where to eat, senior. Don't be polite to me."
An Chi laughed heartily, "Don't worry, I won't be polite with you. Get ready to bleed profusely."
The two chatted and laughed for a while before ending the call.
Another person who was in a good mood tonight was actually Miss Feng Yueying.
She originally wanted her cousin Feng Jue to replace Xiao Qiyu with the leading male role. Now that Xiao Qiyu himself had been involved in such a big scandal and had lost his role, she was of course happy.
As for the impact of the casting change on the movie, Feng Yueying didn't care. She felt that as long as a new male actor was selected to replace Xiao Qiyu, the problem could be solved perfectly without any adverse effects.
However, what Feng Yueying didn't know was that Xiao Qiyu, who had been replaced, would blame all the huge changes that happened today on her.
Because apart from her, Xiao Qiyu could not find another suspect who had both the financial resources and the ability to bring him down.
Although Feng Yueying herself is a fool, her backer is the Feng Group, and she is Feng Jue's only sister!
The next step is probably for Xingchen to sue him.
After Xiao Qiyu returned to the Xiao family from the movie press conference, he locked himself in the room.
He refused to come out no matter who called him.
