After hanging up the phone, Chen Muyang opened Weibo, reposted the Tomato Novel official Weibo post and commented:
"The physical book of The Legend of the Condor Heroes trilogy will be published soon. A book signing event will be held in the Beijing Commercial Center in a week. If you have time, you can come and join us. Of course, don't come too often. Be safe and follow the rules. News about the new book will be revealed at that time."
Netizens happened to be bored after reading a novel recently, and when they saw Chen Muyang's post, they immediately became interested.
"Are you going to publish a physical book? Then I have to buy a copy to show my support."
"There's still a week left. There's still time. I want to go."
“I want to go too!”
"I have to go to my boss and ask for leave in advance."
"It's so funny! I went to ask my boss for leave, and he said he wanted to go too."
Chen Muyang had no objection to the book signing event. With such a big investment from the Tomato Novel website, it would definitely be worth it.
The electronic copyright is in the hands of Fanqie, but the physical and film and television copyrights are in the hands of Chen Muyang himself.
Chen Muyang was thinking about which book to publish next.
"Honey, are you going out to work?" Song Zhuer just heard Chen Muyang answer the phone.
"Well, the novel has been published in physical form, and I have to attend a book signing event." Chen Muyang nodded and ruffled her hair.
Song Zhuer nodded and said, "Go ahead."
"Well, then I'll leave grandma to your care."
At this time, the Internet was flooded with publicity about the signing event.
......
A week later.
Chen Muyang appeared at a book signing event in a commercial center square somewhere in Beijing.
"Hello, Teacher Chen, I'm Snowball." A tall girl in her twenties introduced the scene to Chen Muyang.
"Hello, let's start right away." Chen Muyang said.
At nine o'clock in the morning, there was already a long queue in the commercial plaza.
There are security guards maintaining order at the scene.
At half past nine, the signing event officially began. Chen Muyang appeared in front of everyone, and the people in line immediately cheered.
"Fuck, Brother Yang!"
"I've bought the book, please sign it!"
"Wow, Brother Muyang is so handsome."
The entire book signing event was extremely lively, with reporters holding cameras.
Moreover, this signing event was also live-streamed on Douyin.
"Thank you all for coming to the book signing event for The Legend of the Condor Heroes trilogy." Chen Muyang said holding the microphone.
There was a burst of warm applause. After hearing the applause, he said:
"In addition to the book signing today, there will also be information about the new book, so please stay tuned! I can answer a few questions below."
As soon as Chen Muyang finished speaking, the reporters immediately stretched out their microphones or recorders and almost poked them into his mouth.
"Mr. Chen, will the new book be of the same genre as the Condor Heroes trilogy?"
"Mr. Chen, when will the new book be released?"
"Brother Yang, Xiao Zhao's feet are bound by chains, so how does she change her pants? Also, Mei Chaofeng and Zhou Zhiruo both practiced the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, so how do they wipe their butts?" An unlucky genius in the crowd shouted these two questions.
“......?”
The whole place burst into laughter. What kind of brain circuit can one use to ask such a question?
Chen Muyang's face froze for a moment. Actually, he had the same question, but Mr. Jin had no way to explain it.
For example, Ouyang Feng was so vicious, why didn’t he poison himself to death?
"Hey, you're reading The Legend of the Sand Sculpture Heroes, right? You've come to the wrong place." Chen Muyang said to the sand sculpture book fan, then continued:
"Both the new book and the Condor Heroes trilogy are about martial arts, but unlike the Condor Heroes trilogy, which is primarily about family and country, the new book uses humanity as its theme throughout."
"Could you also reveal some information about the new book?"
"Let me present it to you all with a song!" Chen Muyang said, and winked at Snowball.
The entire venue was filled with the sounds of piano and flute.
The harmonious sound of the piano and flute immediately caught the ears of everyone present.
It is majestic and heart-wrenching, like thousands of waves stretching endlessly.
Passionate and heroic, happy and free, like a dragon soaring out to sea, fighting the wind and waves.
The charming melody that is unique to Chinese classical music culture makes people involuntarily recall the scenes of revenge in the martial arts world.
Everyone listened attentively. The short prelude seemed to hide a magnificent, carefree and unrestrained world of Jianghu.
After the prelude ended, Chen Muyang put the microphone to his mouth:
"The vast ocean laughs, and the tide surges on both sides."
"Floating with the waves, only remembering the present"
"The sky laughs and the world is in turmoil"
"God knows who will win and who will lose"
Chen Muyang's clear singing voice became majestic and heroic, like the roar of a dragon in the sky, shocking the whole audience.
The book fans and reporters who came to the book signing event were shocked at this moment.
As soon as he opens his mouth, one can feel the chivalrous spirit of the underworld and martial arts coming towards him.
Everyone looked at the tall and unruly figure on the stage, shouting in their hearts: Damn, what is this old thief doing? How do we respond?
"The mountains and rivers smile in the mist and rain"
"How much do we know about the mundane world after the waves have washed it away?"
"The gentle breeze's laughter brings loneliness"
"There is still a ray of sunset left in the heroic spirit"
Chen Muyang's voice perfectly displays the feeling of being happy, free and unrestrained in the world of martial arts.
It makes everyone unconsciously think of their past martial arts dreams.
"The common people are no longer lonely"
"The passion is still there, smiling foolishly"
"La la la la~"
"La la la la~"
“…”
Whether it was the people at the scene or the audience in the live broadcast room, they all felt heroic in their hearts, and the melody of the piano and flute was moving in their hearts.
"Holy crap, what kind of magical song is this? I suddenly feel like a chivalrous hero, roaming the world!"
"Just asking, who else! Brother Yang wrote a song directly for the release of his new book."
“I’m looking forward to the new book more and more!”
"But I have a low level of education, and all I can do is say awesome!"
"But I'm uneducated, so I'll just say 'f*ck' and go around in the world!"
"But I'm a fish with nine holes, I can only play with my hands!"
This song is very simple and you can hum along after listening to it once.
Then Chen Muyang sang it for the second time, this time in Cantonese.
“…”
"The waves wash away the beauty of the mundane world"
“…”
“La la la la…”
The Cantonese version of "A Laugh in the Sea" has a stronger underworld flavor!
This shocked everyone, as they sang the same song in both languages.
"The name of this song is "A Laugh in the Ocean", and the title of the new book is "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer." Chen Muyang said after singing.
A laugh from the vast ocean?
The Smiling, Proud Wanderer?
Just by hearing the name, you know it’s a perfect match!
"A divine song, one song, two songs!"
"Brother Yang is awesome! This is the first time someone has written a song for a novel."
"Our Chinese classical music is so beautiful."
“Looking forward to Brother Yang’s new book, ‘The Smiling, Proud Wanderer’!”
The song "A Laugh in the Ocean" uses the five tones of Chinese classical music: Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng and Yu.
The melody is ups and downs, catchy, grand and heroic.
