In winter, the snow is cold, and the branches and branches of the Su family's small garden are covered with thick snow. Looking out from the window, it is white and peaceful.
The little robot da da was wrapped into a round and fat ball, followed Su Tan in small steps, and stepped out of the gate of Su's house.
The snow creaked and creaked under the little boots, making a novel sound, which made Da Da stop again and again in curiosity and surprise, and couldn't help squatting down his chubby body to look at it.
That naive look made the Su family couldn't help but smile.
Dr. Shu, who happened to be resting that day, followed behind him with gentle downcast eyes, seeing him squatting on the ground short and fat, not moving at all, so he reached out and hugged him up.
Da da "Yah", he fluttered his feet in mid-air, almost kicking off his boots.
Seeing this scene, everyone laughed in unison, and walked leisurely and comfortably towards a large shopping mall at the end of the street, preparing to purchase new year's supplies and go home.
As the new year is approaching, the festive atmosphere on the streets is getting stronger and stronger. Many families, like the Su family, take a look at them and move out together with their children and their families. Although the convenient interstellar express and shopping websites have achieved the goal of being able to shop without going out.
But in front of the festival, many Geulians still rushed out of their homes enthusiastically, expressing their enthusiasm for the festival by shopping in shopping malls and grabbing things and going out with the whole family.
But today's shopping mall entrance is very different.
Before they got far, Su Tan's family saw that the streets and alleys were full of people, queuing up and huddling together, as if the entire population of the small town had gathered here.
"The new book "Unlucky Amy" is on sale! The best holiday gift, children's fantasy fairy tale! The author of "The Little Elf" Su Tan's best children's literature masterpiece! The fairy tale that the Georgians love! It is hot now On sale—"
A large electronic banner flashing with colorful lights is very attractive. It hangs high at the gate of the mall, and the enthusiastic and crowded crowd almost reaches the end of the street.
Seeing this hot scene, the robot Suning immediately became excited, grabbed Shu Heng's arm, tried to lower his voice, and couldn't hide his excitement and pride: "My son is here!"
Seeing Suning's excited and happy expression, Shu Heng couldn't help curling the corners of his lips.
Suning looked at Su Tan with scorching eyes, and the silent eyes revealed incomparable pride, which made Su Tan unable to help but laugh.
Even he himself did not expect that the speed of publishing new books would be so fast. Lance Calder, the agent, is neat, calm and low-key.
Since the two signed the contract, they have taken over all of Su Tan's chores except writing articles. Whether it is contacting publishers or selecting a film and animation company to prepare cartoons, they have done it beautifully and quickly, in an orderly manner, without any problems. flaw.
Even Hayden praised his abilities.
As a result, the hot scene of the new book release exceeded Su Tan's expectations.
The bustling crowd, rubbing shoulders together, was not cold in the cold winter, but their scorching breath made each other smile.
Seeing many fathers, with their children straddling their shoulders, they lined up in the long queue for buying lively.
Immediately, the robot Suning watched with fiery eyes, couldn't help being a little bit excited, dragged Dr. Shu and Da Da in, and handed over all the purchase orders to Su Tan and Hayden.
Su Tan shook his head and laughed. Seeing his father's cheerful and energetic appearance, he took off his thick long scarf and wrapped it tightly around his younger brother Da Da's face. Then he turned around and went into the shopping mall with his eldest cousin for big purchases. .
As for the new book release line that the three of Suning were waiting for, there was a long queue. About ten minutes later, there was a slight commotion in the front row. After inquiring, it turned out that "Unlucky Amy", which was hotly baked from the publishing house's printing factory, finally arrived, and the front row has already started selling.
Hearing this news, all the countless people queuing up behind were all envious, and couldn't help sighing in unison.
In order to ensure that the number of new books on site is sufficient, the bookstore on the first floor of the shopping mall urgently adopted a purchase restriction policy, which made many people in front complain and complain, and at the same time, many people in the queue behind couldn't help but give birth to hope, and enthusiastically applauded for this event. policy response.
Coward is one of them.
He is an old book fan of "Guilia Children's Stories" magazine, and grew up watching this fairy tale since he was a child. However, after I became an adult, my work became more and more busy, and the quality of "Children" magazine went from bad to worse, so I read less and less frequently.
Until one time he accidentally bought a copy of "Guilia Children's Stories" and read this bedtime story for his eight-year-old son Buddy. Since then, Buddy has fallen in love with this book.
And the father-son relationship, which is rarely in contact and slightly tense on weekdays, has become more intimate and peaceful as before because of the precious time for bedtime stories every day.
Since then, Coward has loved "Unlucky Amy," a children's story.
Today, he hastily asked for leave from his work unit, and took his son Buddy to line up at the entrance of the mall early, gearing up for the purchase of the freshly released refined version of "Unlucky Amy". The two waited in line for a full five hours before it finally came to them.
Coward hurriedly paid for the two books, and stuffed the new book, which still smelled like paper and ink, into the arms of his expectant son, and immediately saw Buddy's face full of ecstasy, and the corners of his brows and eyes were full of tears. out of joy.
At the moment, looking at the joyful smiling face of my son, let alone waiting for five hours, even waiting in line for ten hours is worth it!
Coward was in a good mood, touching the top of his son's head with one hand, while walking outside amidst the envy of the crowd behind him.
But his son, Buddy, was completely immersed in the joy of the new book, and couldn't even wait for a second. He couldn't wait to open the exquisite hardcover cover, and opened the pages of the book that smelled of ink.
As soon as he caught his eye, he read it thousands of times, and the familiar beginning, like a picture scroll, unfolded in front of him slowly.
"There is a small town of Woka in the southwestern countryside of Gelia. The town of Woka is simple and honest, and the neighbors are friendly. There is only one unlucky guy who makes people headaches and likes to be mischievous—"
Without looking at the name that was about to appear next, a big and sly smile appeared on Buddy's face, and he blurted out and shouted: "Amy!"
really-
"... The unlucky person who makes people have headaches and likes to be mischievous-Amy, is well-known...."
Although Buddy has long been familiar with this story, and begged his father Coward to read it ten times, a hundred times, countless times, but at this moment, it seems that it is still very familiar and close, like meeting an old friend who has a tacit understanding. Can't get tired of watching.
not to mention-
"There are illustrations!" Buddy turned over a page of the book, and accidentally found an exquisite colorful illustration. The interesting image of the little protagonist is intertwined with bright and bright colors, which makes people very interesting, and he was caught immediately. look.
Buddy was even more pleasantly surprised. He quickly turned to the back, and was surprised and excited to find that there were more than one illustration in the whole book. Each one happens to be one of the most exciting episodes in "Lucky Amy."
In the last page of the whole book, there is a whole jigsaw puzzle, with colorful colors and Amy's vivid image, Buddy couldn't help shouting excitedly immediately, which attracted many children queuing up attention.
A classmate immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Buddy, what's wrong? What did you find? Show me!"
Buddy laughed and held the book tightly in his arms, and answered loudly with joy and pride: "No!"
As he said that, he dragged his father Coward and ran away in a hurry, leaving behind countless angry laughter and curses caused by his actions.
Even though the crowd queuing up behind hadn't seen what the new book looked like, all kinds of rumors had quickly spread here like a tornado.
Where the robots Suning and Shu Heng were standing, they could hear the heated discussion of the family in front of them.
"My favorite character is Amy." A gentle and gentle father raised a helpless and doting smile, and teased his son jokingly, "Amy looks like you when you are naughty, you are really a naughty one." ghost."
As soon as the words fell, a little boy standing beside him immediately retorted angrily, "That's because you don't understand me!"
He snorted his little nose, waved his little fist at his father, and at the same time said with infinite yearning: "Only my little friend, Da Da, understands Amy best, and he will accompany him to drill warehouses, climb valley piles, and run to the small river to touch fish." .”
His tone was extremely favorable, but his immature voice was extremely firm, and he declared loudly: "My favorite is da da!"
This bold and lofty confession immediately made the little robot lying on Shu Heng's shoulder twitch its ears and raise its neck to look, its face full of curiosity and surprise.
His face was tightly wrapped in a scarf, not a single bit of wind and snow could fly in, leaving only a pair of big eyes outside. At this time, it didn't delay him at all to look at the person who passionately confessed his love in astonishment.
"Da da?"
The little robot in Shu Heng's arms murmured what the man said just now, wondering whether that little brother was calling his name in confusion and doubts
And the surrounding crowd, also aroused curiosity by this straightforward and hot announcement, burst into laughter. Afterwards, everyone became more interested in talking, and they simply opened up the conversation box, and people who knew each other before, left, left, and left were all discussing livelyly.
Different from adults' love for the mischievous little boy "Amy", children have a soft spot for "Amy"'s closest partner, the little robot "Da Da", and chat enthusiastically about it.
"I like Da Da too! I really want a friend like Da Da!"
"Hey, there is a Mr. Robot near our house, so he is gentle and kind, and he gives me candy every time."
“我也爱死哒哒了！我跟老妈说，想要像哒哒一样的弟弟，结果被我妈给揍了… ”
“Dada is the best!”
"Nobody doesn't love him~"
Hearing these words, the little robot hugged Shu Heng blankly, his face was as red as an apple, and even the tips of his ears felt hot unconsciously.
He squeezed his fingers shyly, and was at a loss and extremely shy in the face of the sudden many loves and confessions, as if countless flowers bloomed in his heart in an instant.
His shy and silent appearance attracted the attention of a little boy next to him. He ran over immediately and asked curiously, "Brother, who do you like?"
Da Da blushed, tried to raise his voice, shyly but eagerly responded to many confessions and loves.
"I like you guys!"
A soft and ironic sentence immediately shocked the little boy who was asking the question, and his face blushed uncontrollably.
... My brother is so good at teasing QAQ.
So cute, how did it break
Su Tan and Hayden came out of the shopping mall with big bags and small bags. The crowd inside was no less crowded than the outside. He struggled for a long time before he managed to buy all the things on Dad's shopping list. Deng squeezed out the door of the mall.
It was an unexpected discovery that the Su family who lined up to buy "Unlucky Amy" were extremely popular, and children were the most popular among them.
Many older and younger children surrounded his younger brother with big smiles, vying to talk to him. Even if they have finished buying the books, they refuse to leave early, but get together together.
Su Tan couldn't help laughing at this popular scene. With Da Da, we bid farewell to many reluctant children, and the family finally returned home.
That night, under Da Da's strong request, Dr. Shu sat on the head of the bed, opened "Unlucky Amy", and began to tell the story in a gentle and peaceful tone.
Da Da opened his eyes wide in surprise, followed Shu Heng's soft and soothing voice, and gradually became fascinated by the story.
At the same time, countless Geulia families were like this, reading and reading the latest hard-edged version of "Unlucky Amy" in a surprisingly tacit understanding that night.
The story is still the one that makes children's hearts flutter, and the illustrations and three-dimensional scenes that appear in the book from time to time make many children cry out in surprise and joy, and are obsessed with it.
However, the families who did not buy "Unlucky Amy" were overwhelmed by crying.
In the early morning of the next day, the sky had just dawned, and the thick fog had not yet dissipated. There were many customers who came in a hurry at the new book sales offices of the major bookstores in Guilia.
Some even didn't even put on their clothes, and hurriedly grabbed a coat and wrapped it up to go out.
Some had flushed cheeks and bloodshot eyes. They had been waiting in cars on the side of the road for an unknown amount of time.
There are also eager faces, regretting that they didn't have time to buy new books yesterday, which disappointed the children who couldn't bear to wait anxiously.
After all, they rushed to the sales outlets all over Guilia for the first time, and Qi Qi asked anxiously, "Is there still "Unlucky Amy"?"
The clerks in the bookstore are not surprised. The printing plants all over Guilia are running around the clock, printing continuously. Five million copies of "Unlucky Amy" were urgently printed overnight, and they were sent to people all over the planet in the early morning snow. Bookstore agents point of sale.
At this time, the clerk swiftly took out a new book from the box and stuffed it into the other person's hand, reminding him: "The online reservation and sales system is open today, so you don't have to come so early."
However, all the parents smiled wryly, simply paid off the book money, and prepared to go home with them. "I can't wait, the weather is bad, I'm afraid I have to wait another day for the courier to deliver the goods to my door."
The implication is that they can't even wait for this day.
Hearing this, the clerk was extremely sad, but he never thought that such a scene would be staged at the sales points all over Guilia.
"Unlucky Amy", which could only be sold through the point of sale on the first day, caused a long queue of thousands of people.
Many families who called for friends and family members would rather give up buying new year's goods, and queued up to buy this well-known children's story, which caused a huge peak in sales of new books.
However, many insiders and shop assistants in the publishing industry thought that the sales would drop normally the next day, but unexpectedly, there was another unprecedented wave of sales in the morning of the next day.
Such a rapid sales speed shocked the entire literary world of Guilia in an instant.
"Heavy news direct train: 8 million! The sales volume of "Unlucky Amy" broke the historical record on the first day, and successfully became the best-selling book in Guilia!"
"Morning Express: The latest and hottest must-have item on the New Year's shopping list - "Unlucky Amy"! Have you bought it yet?"
"Today's headline: Last night, how many families accompanied their children to sleep while watching "Unlucky Amy"?"
"Guilia Daily News: 'Lucky Amy' Hits Biggest Sales Boom Ever!"
…
The news of the sales of "Unlucky Amy" spread all over Guilia in an instant, and all the media rushed to report the hot sales of "Unlucky Amy", and praised this book as the most worth buying this year new Year's gift.
The new year's "Guilia's Hottest Bestseller" has been released.
Sales were blowing out, all lines were out of stock, reprints were frequently added, and online shopping was booming... A week later, the sales volume of "Unlucky Amy" had reached a terrifying 30 million, and almost all residents of Guilia had a copy.
After the media investigation, it was found that many families not only bought "Unlucky Amy" for their children, but also ordered many books from the Internet, and gave them to relatives, friends, nephews and nieces as New Year gifts.
This book has quietly become the hottest new business card of Guilia.
With such a huge sales volume, Qiqi caused a sensation in all Gelia. Even the other star domains have attracted attention.
An anonymous post on Xingji Internet Forum quietly went viral.
"The fairy tale of Gelia sells 30 million in a week? Do you believe it?"
Under the post, almost all the netizens in the major star domains did not believe this data, and they all laughed and laughed.
"Young Handicapped Party: Don't be kidding me, the landlord? Gelia? That literary desert?"
"Black Commemoration: Tsk tsk, the author's fake news is too unreliable! Not to mention how weak Gelia's literature is, but to talk about fairy tale works, the author, stand up for me and say that there has been a lot in the past ten years. Which fairy tale has achieved such an astonishing sales volume?"
"Green orange lemon tea: I think it's possible... My aunt who lives in Guilia mailed me a copy with great interest, and it will be delivered in a short while [laughing and crying]."
"Black commemoration: So, this means that the sales are hyped up by the Goliaths themselves? It's amazing."
…
There are different opinions on the forum, and most people sneer at each other. They are unwilling to believe that there will be such a popular children's literature on Gelia, a planet that has always been a "literary desert".
Many people ridiculed that it was mostly the Geulian hype, wanting to put some gold rims on the name of "Literary Desert".
Just at this time, "Green Orange Lemon Tea" suddenly popped up again, and replied: "The courier has arrived!! I got the fairy tale of Guilia! Now watch the novel live and share your impressions after reading it!"
She posted the photo directly with enthusiasm and straightforwardness, uploaded the cover photo of the fairy tale to the forum, and then typed a line.
"Green Orange Lemon Tea: Some people can't wait to try it out, read a chapter first, and share the evaluation later."
Her people went into hiding, but the big fairy tale cover photo left in the interstellar forum post caused a new wave of ridicule.
"Young Handicapped Party: "Unlucky Amy"? True Fairy Tale..."
"Black Memorial: Listening to the title of this book, I can't read it. It's weird! Thunder is rolling! Who is Amy? Who recognizes it?"
"Blowing up the lights for interstellar coins: Guilia said clearly that this is a children's story, so don't laugh at it. Wait for the master's trial report, be nice."
Five minutes later, "Green Orange Lemon Tea" appeared again and commented succinctly.
"Green orange lemon tea: After reading the first two pages, the writing is lively, all describing Amy's country life, it feels okay... right?"
The ambiguous evaluation immediately made many netizens in the post laugh and joke.
"Young handicapped party: layer master, just tell the truth that you are not good enough, no need to whitewash."
"Black Memorial: Sure enough. Guilia can publish children's literature? It's too naive."
"Exploding the light for interstellar coins: It sounds very ordinary, layer master, are you still going to continue the trial reading?"
"Green orange lemon tea: Look, wait for me for a few more minutes."
She became invisible again, picked up the hardcover edition of "Unlucky Amy" and read on. She unexpectedly found that the direction of the story did not have major twists and turns, but was unexpectedly warm and interesting, and the lines between the lines were full of strong interest in life.
Secretly poured the milk he didn’t like to drink into the sink, played wildly in the rice fields and forgot to go home, rode his big rooster, Xiong Jiu, and went out in high spirits, and bravely slipped out at night to smear …
All kinds of interesting things are all things she wanted to do when she was a child but didn't have the courage to do it, or there were some moments when she was equally silly.
At that moment, "Green Orange Lemon Tea" was holding the book, unable to let go of it.
I do not know when, night fell quietly, the room was dark, and when the words on the book were blurred, "Green Orange Lemon Tea" finally stopped, and I was surprised to find that I had read it for more than three hours. , I didn't notice the passage of time in the middle, and I was so focused on not smelling anything outside.
"Green Orange Lemon Tea" put down the book in his hand, turned on the desk lamp, and found the smile on his face in the mirror on the table at some point. His muscles were already stiff from laughing, but the big and comfortable smile was I can't brush it off.
She froze for a moment, then laughed.
I hurriedly opened the interstellar forum, and saw that the post had been sunk to the bottom, and the last hundreds of replies were all asking her to come out and share her feelings.
"Black Memorial: Half an hour has passed, and the floor master hasn't appeared yet, so it feels like he won't appear."
"Young handicapped party: I think the truth is that this fairy tale novel is too eye-catching, and the floor master can't read it anymore, so I gave up."
"Explode the lights for interstellar coins: floor master! Come out quickly! Try to read the comments that you agreed! @青橙茶茶"
Seeing countless squatting netizens waiting in the post for a long time, but they didn't wait for her to show up, "Green Orange Lemon Tea" couldn't help feeling guilty.
She hurriedly typed a reply, fully expressing her feelings about reading the book.
"Green orange lemon tea: I'm back! I'm sorry, netizens upstairs, I wanted to watch a little bit and share some feelings with you. But I didn't expect it—it's so beautiful! I can't stop it!"
"I didn't stay until I read the last page. Huh? That's all? I can't read enough!"
As soon as she posted a post, the post was pushed to the front page of the forum. Netizens who had seen this post before couldn't help clicking in again, but they were surprised to find that the evaluation of "Qing Cheng" suddenly reversed.
"Green orange lemon tea: When I turned to the first two pages, what did I feel in my heart? How can my aunt praise it so highly? It's just an interesting rural fairy tale? I can only give it five points at most, no more .”
This remark is quite in line with the impression of many netizens on Geulia's literary works.
But in comparison, the previous "Green Orange" enthusiastically commented "It's so beautiful! I can't stop it!" The evaluation is a bit more unusual.
Sure enough, after a flat and uncharacteristic comment at the beginning, "Qingcheng"'s words immediately became excited and enthusiastic.
"Green orange and lemon tea: However, when I read it, it was this plain! The writing is lively! The writing style is leisurely! The country and cozy little story completely attracted me. When I saw it, I saw the dark QAQ directly."
Her words instantly surprised the netizens in the interstellar forum.
"Black Memorial:... The floor master is a sailor hired by Gelia, right?"
"Young handicapped party: I think so too."
"Explode the lights for interstellar coins: silence 1."
Seeing that no one believed her comment, "Green Orange Lemon Tea" immediately jumped up and down with "Unlucky Amy".
"Green orange lemon tea: It's fine if you don't believe me. It's not me who missed a good book. I'm going to read it a second time!"
She waved affectionately and disappeared.
All the netizens in the remaining posts were silent.
"Black Memorial: ... Can anyone give me a link to "Unlucky Amy"? I will test the drug myself."
three days later—
The posts on the interstellar forum are lively.
"Youth with a handicapped party: I watched "Unlucky Amy" and felt my conscience and said, it looks good."
"Black Commemoration: Mine has already been mailed home, but... now my son is grabbing the book from me to read."
"Exploding the light for interstellar coins: I didn't see much resonance, but my mother and father accidentally caught a glimpse and loved this novel. They said that they were reminded by this book that they went to the countryside to cultivate a small agricultural planet when they were young. The memories of life have been recommended by Amway to the old guys who went to the countryside in the same year... "
"Clear water and blue sky: Am I the only one who is attracted by the delicious food in the countryside in the book? By the way, what season is the best time to travel to Guilia? I want to book a starship ticket!"
The hot discussion in the forum gradually fermented, starting from the interstellar forum where the netizens of various star domains concentrated, praise, doubt, disbelief and many other emotions were mixed together, but it fueled the flames and caused a huge amount of attention, triggering more and more people. More people read the children's novel "Unlucky Amy".
Immediately, the online sales of "Unlucky Amy" jumped rapidly, breaking through a new high.
This increasingly popular trend has set off a wave of reading enthusiasm across the Internet.
But in Guilia at this time, the footsteps of the New Year are quietly approaching. After the good news of the release of the new book "Unlucky Amy", a blockbuster detonated the whole Guilia again.
"Exclusive release by Geusia TV: the most anticipated animation! The hottest fairy tale work of the year! The latest masterpiece of the talented author Su Tan - "Unlucky Amy" animation will be officially released in three days!!"
As soon as this news was broadcast on the Geulia News Network, it immediately aroused carnival among the whole people.
For three days, the TV station broadcasted the trailer in turn, the billboards lit up at the entrance of the bookstore in the street, and the enthusiastic chatting of many Goliath residents all created enough enthusiasm for the release of this long-awaited cartoon.
When it was officially broadcast at 6:30 p.m., the entire Guilia Street was unexpectedly quiet, with almost no pedestrians. It really should be a word - empty alley.
The quiet and peaceful streets were only covered with snow, and when a few cars passed by quietly, there was a whirlwind of snow quietly.
In every household, everyone is with the whole family, guarding the TV together, waiting for the first episode of the "Unlucky Amy" cartoon to air.
At the same time, at an altitude of several thousand meters, a low-key and stable starship is passing through the heavy atmosphere, heading towards the peaceful and quiet little planet Goliath.
On the starship, the butler of the Gu family was extremely enthusiastic, seeing that the planet where the young master lives is close at hand, as long as they enter the connecting port of Gelia, they can go to the young master's house with the owner.
Immediately, he was in an indescribably happy mood, and sent a message to his old enemy.
"Guess where I am:)?"
He ostentatiously took a photo of Gelia and sent it to the other party, thinking happily that Olesen, the steward of the guard with the title of royal honor, must be extremely envious of himself.
Young Master! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Those who accompany them during the New Year are all mine! !
Thinking of how the other party could only fight the fire tens of thousands of light-years away, the butler of the Gu family was in a happy mood to bloom flowers.
Unexpectedly, Olesen directly responded to him with an emoji - "Then you are awesome!"
The butler snorted softly, raised his chin triumphantly, and quickly directed the members of the Gu family to drive the airship into the docking port, packed the luggage quickly, got off the airship, changed to a sports car, and drove towards the Su family.
There were almost no pedestrians on the street in the evening, and it was surprisingly quiet. The lights from the windows of every household on the side of the road are bright and warm, which makes people yearn for it in the quiet and peaceful snowy night.
The car quickly arrived at the gate of Su's small courtyard.
The butler of the Gu family got out of the car first, and respectfully served the head of the family, Gu Qin, to get off the car and walked into the Su family whose door was half closed.
The soles of the shoes crunched and stepped on the snow, and the butler heard laughter and laughter from a distance before he got to the front porch.
He praised Gu Qin with a smile on his face: "The young master will definitely be crazy when he sees you."
The corners of Gu Qin's handsome lips pursed slightly, and he pressed the doorbell.
The doorbell rang three times, and immediately, the sound of steady footsteps sounded from the door, and the door of the Su family was pulled open smoothly from the inside.
immediately-
Butler Gu: "Why are you here?!!!"
