There is no summer vacation at Peking University. After the final exam, students will basically work on projects with teachers or go to the laboratory.
There are still people coming and going in the experimental buildings of various courtyards.
"I can go by myself." Gu Mang wore a black Bluetooth headset, took off the black backpack hanging on the back of the chair and carried it in his hand. Then he took the mobile phone on the table, nodded slightly to the senior brothers and sisters in the laboratory, and walked out. Medical Information Laboratory.
Lu Chengzhou's gentle and low voice came from the earphones, "I'm on vacation, will I accompany you?"
Gu Mang was stunned. Red Scorpion has been preparing for a large-scale exercise recently. He has been busy with this. Is he on vacation now
"Where's the Red Scorpion?" she asked.
"Dad is here." Over there, Lu Chengzhou stepped on the brakes, "We're at the Medical Department."
Everyone came, Gu Mang raised his eyebrows, "Okay."
Gu Mang arrived at the first floor of the laboratory building. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he saw the man lazily leaning against the wall next to the glass door.
The light reflected half-darkness on his face, and his eyebrows were deep and sharp.
Lu Chengzhou raised his eyes, saw her, stood up straight, walked over, naturally took the bag in her hand, and led her out, "What time is the appointment?"
"Four o'clock." It's now three-twenty.
…
At the same time, Huayue Society.
The whole place was busy.
Even the boss came to the editorial office in person.
He rubbed his hands nervously, "God D is coming in forty minutes. Are you ready?"
The editor-in-chief replied with a tight voice, "Everything is ready! The top priority of the editorial department today is to welcome God D! I have been cleaning since the morning! I also ordered a welcome banner, just in case I need it later."
This gesture was like welcoming an inspection from some big leader.
The boss nodded, "Well done."
The editor-in-chief smiled, looked around the editorial department again, and touched the trophies on the wall cabinet, "Have all the trophies of God D been wiped clean?"
Although it had been wiped three times, Wen Ke, the editor-in-chief of Gu Mang's new book, still said: "I'll wipe it again."
After saying that, she walked over quickly, not trusting to let the editor do it.
The trophy has been polished enough to look in the mirror.
"Where is the book that God D will sign soon?" the editor-in-chief asked.
An editor pointed to the conference room and said, "They are all in there, already put away."
The editor-in-chief said: "Check the quantity again to make sure there is no mistake!"
"Okay." The editor-in-chief went without saying a word, even though she and the editor-in-chief had already checked the things to be prepared today no less than ten times.
Three forty.
The boss stood neatly at the door of the company with the editor-in-chief, editor-in-chief, all editors-in-charge, and staff from the distribution department.
Three fifty.
The boss's nervous breathing became rapid and his hands were shaking. "There are still ten minutes. God D will be here in ten minutes."
The boss is so nervous, let alone the people under him.
The editor-in-chief and Gu Mang met once. He was not as nervous as them, but not much better. He kept looking at the time.
The crowd was completely silent, all standing at the door of the company waiting for Gu Mang.
Three fifty-nine.
The editors were so nervous that their pants were about to burst.
The boss is coming soon!
Four o'clock sharp.
The elevator dinged.
In an instant, everyone straightened their backs, even more formal than a military posture.
The boss’s beer belly straightened out.
Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou arrived at Huayue Club, stepped out of the elevator, and saw this scene.
The boss's daughter is a fan of Gu Mang, and she treasures posters from Gu Mang's previous MVs.
So much so that he recognized Gu Mang at a glance.
"God D, you're here." The boss greeted him with a smile on his face.
Gu Mang nodded.
People in the editorial and distribution departments opened their eyes in surprise when they saw Gu Mang's slightly bulging abdomen.
God D... It's been... a few months...
Then she looked at the man holding her hand next to her and gasped, his calf muscles twitching and trembling!
This should be the big boss of the Lu family...
No wonder he had to accompany God D in person.
But when D God comes, they are almost suffocated with nervousness, two of them come at once! !
There's smoke coming out of their Huayueshe ancestral graves...
I can get these two big guys to come...
The boss saw that Lu Chengzhou's legs were weak, but after all, he had seen a little bit of the market and could still be a little stable. He looked at Lu Chengzhou and said, "Mr. Lu."
The man nodded.
"You two, please come in." The boss personally led the two people in.
The group of people walked directly to the conference room.
When passing the wall of honor.
Editor-in-chief Wen Ke said: "God D, this is the award you have won over the years."
All are prestigious awards in the literary world.
Dark’s works are all legendary, and each one has been blessed with at least one heavyweight award.
The most awarded work is "Black Sea", which directly won all domestic literary awards.
Lu Chengzhou turned his eyes and saw that the wall of honor was almost entirely filled with Gu Mang's trophies.
Only two are by other authors.
Everything Gu Mang does is done to the extreme.
"If you want to take it away, I'll have someone put it away for you." The boss said. The air conditioning in the office area was turned on fully. Standing next to the two bosses, he was still sweating nervously.
Gu Mang's voice was light, "No, just stay here."
"Okay." The boss nodded quickly, "Then let's go to the conference room."
Several leaders all entered the conference room, and the young editors were outside.
Wait for the conference room door to close.
The two female editors held each other's hands excitedly.
"I actually saw God D!!! I will die with no regrets!!! It's so beautiful! God D is so beautiful!!!"
"Ahh! D God has a baby! We will have one more person to love in the future!!!"
"I'm so excited! The two big guys are so good-looking, and the baby will be so cute!!!"
“I really want God D’s autograph! I don’t dare!!!”
"Me too!!! I want God D to sign the "God Hand" magazine I bought!"
The two female editors looked at the direction of the conference room with tears in their eyes, their faces filled with the happiness of succeeding in chasing stars.
…
In the conference room.
Gu Mang picked up a new book titled "Heng".
The cover design is very good, using cosmic elements, purple, gold and black three-color fusion gradient, mysterious and noble.
Wen Ke said: "God D, the pre-sale of your new book is scheduled for the end of the month and will be available nationwide. Previously, I applied for 300 autographed copies. If you find it troublesome to autograph, you can cancel the autograph and do all the autographs. .”
The last time they saw Gu Mang, although they knew that Gu Mang was pregnant, they thought that it would not affect her because she was just pregnant.
During this period, some negotiations about the new book were finalized online with Gu Mang first.
So I made an appointment with Gu Mang to come and sign today.
I feel like I'm a few months pregnant now.
Afraid of tiring Gu Mang, he wanted to make a temporary change.
"No need." Gu Mang took off the cap of the pen with one hand, threw it on the table, opened the book and signed on the title page.
The English letter "Dark" has a strong pen and strong momentum. The hook at the end reveals a bit of wildness.
Three hundred copies are actually very, very few!
Compared to the number of Gu Mang's readers, three hundred books is simply a handful!
Lu Chengzhou took the initiative to open the cover of the book and handed it to Gu Mang for her to sign directly. He raised his eyes and looked at them, "What else do I need her to cooperate with?"
This was the first sentence Lu Chengzhou said after joining Huayue Society.
The man's voice is deep and magnetic, indifferent and distant, his aura is strong and cold, and one look in his eye can make your body tense uncontrollably.
Wen Ke clenched her fingers, still calm. She had been responsible for Gu Mang's book before, and the two of them were familiar with each other.
She was a little calmer than her boss, and answered Lu Chengzhou in a steady voice, "Before the pre-sale starts, God D may need to post a Weibo promotion. We will edit it, and then God can just post it directly."
The man nodded.
If you can handle the new book matters at Huayue Society, you can handle them yourself. If you can't, you will disturb Gu Mang.
Signatures and Weibo can only come from Gu Mang.
"We also need to borrow your chapter." Wen Ke said.
Lu Chengzhou handed the opened book to Gu Mang, then took Gu Mang's bag and found the seal.
Wen Ke immediately took the seal and went out to ask her subordinates to make the necessary documents while she watched it herself.
The only sounds in the conference room were Lu Chengzhou turning over books and Gu Mang signing.
Several leaders breathed lightly and did not dare to disturb the boss.
After a while, Wen Ke came back with the signature stamp and gave it back to Lu Chengzhou.
She looked at Gu Mang who was signing autographs.
The girl's hands are quick, the wrist bones are slightly protruding, and the fingers are cold and white and beautiful.
In a short time she had signed over a hundred copies.
Wen Ke thought for a while and boldly said: "God D, can I take a photo of you? Without showing your face, just take a signed photo."
Gu Mang didn't stop signing and hummed.
Wen Ke breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately took out his cell phone, found an angle, and focused the camera on Gu Mang's signing hand.
After taking a photo, Wen Ke instantly felt that his mobile phone had become a priceless treasure, and his fingers couldn't help but tighten.
Suddenly remembering something, she said: "God D, the Beijing Daily called and wanted to give you an exclusive interview."
"I won't accept the interview." Gu Mang's voice was calm.
Except for the necessary interview with Ferro, Gu Mang never accepted any personal interviews.
But the two words "Gu Mang" are now the perfect password for wealth.
The issue of Philo's exclusive interview with Gu Mang caused "God Hand" magazine to sell out, and the Internet was shocked.
Who wouldn’t be jealous when looking at such a good thing
Gu Mang's personal super chat has only been created a few months ago and already has more than 20 million followers. It is even more popular than the hottest celebrities. It ranks first on the Weibo rankings and everyone is going crazy.
Even if they don't have the guts to mess with this big boss, who doesn't want to take a chance, just in case the big boss is in a good mood and is willing to cooperate with them on a small scale.
So the Beijing News approached Hua Yueshe.
When Wen Ke heard her rejection, he said: "Okay, then I will reply to the Beijing News."
Gu Mang nodded.
After the matter was settled, Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou walked out of the conference room.
When we arrived at the editorial office, two girls suddenly rushed out.
Lu Chengzhou turned slightly to the side and stood in front of Gu Mang calmly.
He turned his eyes and saw two girls holding pens and the magazine "God Hand" and handing them to Gu Mang. They looked at her expectantly and nervously, "God D, can you sign your name for us?"
Gu Mang took it and signed it for both of them. Seeing this, other people in the editorial department also joined in.
A girl asked: "God D, Wei Ming will make a comeback, right?"
Wei Ming is the male protagonist of "Heng". The last volume of the first volume is stuck at a climax, a heart-wrenching suspense.
Everyone in the editorial department has read the first volume and can’t wait to read the next volume right away.
But Dark's book is probably the only one where the halo of the protagonist is not strong. Based on the other books, they were really afraid that the protagonist would be written off or disappear again.
The girl couldn't help but ask.
When Gu Mang heard this, he raised his eyes to look at her, then continued to sign, the corners of his lips slightly raised in an inconspicuous arc, "Guess."
The girl was so disgusted by Gu Mangshuai that she was speechless.
There are only a few enlarged and bold fonts in my mind—
God D! for me! ! ! Laughed! ! !
…
Lu Chengzhou ordered a new book by Gu Mang from the editorial department.
He should now be the first person besides Huayueshe to get Gu Mang's new book.
At night, Lu Chengzhou lay on the bed and read Gu Mang's new book.
Gu Mang sat at the desk and read some information that Yu Zhongjing sent her.
After reading it, she told Yu Zhongjing what needed to be modified and what was wrong, and asked him to correct it.
Then she turned off her computer and walked to the bathroom.
Twenty minutes later, Gu Mang came out.
Lu Chengzhou had already taken out the hair dryer and placed it on the bed cabinet, and also heated up a glass of milk.
The man closed the book, put it aside, pulled her into his arms, and then blew her hair.
"When will you hand in the second volume?" Lu Chengzhou suddenly said.
Gu Mang raised his eyebrows and turned to look at him.
Lu Chengzhou said again, "The second volume of "Heng"."
Gu Mang's book used to be about high-intelligence crimes, but now it's my first exposure to space science fiction.
She originally studied very complex subjects, knew a lot, and had an extremely profound knowledge base.
This new science fiction book "Heng" involves psychology, biology, physics, cosmic astronomy, string theory and countless other scientific knowledge.
When outsiders evaluate Dark, what he is best at is the well-designed, unexpected, yet terrifyingly real concepts, which are highly personal.
It interprets the ugliness and glory of human nature to the extreme.
This new book combines the real world to create novel and surprising science fiction concepts that are simply impressive.
It is not an exaggeration to use these four words to describe it.
Gu Mang thought for a while and said, "It depends on the situation. There will be a lot going on later."
She hasn't written a word yet.
"Can you spoil the story?" Lu Chengzhou held her hair with his fingers and blew the hair dryer to the ends of her hair.
When Gu Mang heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "No."
"Can't I?" Lu Chengzhou turned off the hair dryer.
Gu Mang turned around and leaned lazily against the head of the bed, crossing his arms across his chest, "Want to know the ending?"
Lu Chengzhou put his arms on his bent knees, his wrists hanging naturally, "I want to see if you can kill the protagonist this time."
Gu Mang narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled, "Just think about it."
“…”
Lu Chengzhou clicked his tongue, pinched her chin and shook it, "Sleep?"
Gu Mang nodded.
Lu Chengzhou lifted the quilt, let her lie down, and hugged her behind her, "The style is different."
The style of the story is very different from the previous one.
"I'm tired of the suspense style." Gu Mang whispered.
"You get bored so easily?" Lu Chengzhou held her hand and asked seriously, "Will you get bored of me?"
Gu Mang didn't want to continue this topic, fearing that she would have to go to bed late again if she didn't agree.
"How many days are you going to take off?" She changed the subject too obviously.
Lu Chengzhou pressed his chin into the crook of her neck, smiled, and answered her, "Five months."
Gu Mang turned around and looked at him, "Did you use the wrong unit?"
Five months
Not five days
Lu Chengzhou said lazily, "No, five months of maternity leave is not normal. It is not enough for me to continue taking it."
The plan is to wait for three months before giving birth and take care of her for two months.
Gu Mang: "...?"
Is he on maternity leave
"Aren't you going to sleep?" Lu Chengzhou smoothed the hair that fell on her face, "If you're not going to sleep, give me some spoilers for your new book."
Gu Mang's new book is really different this time, especially in some places...
"I can't sleep after reading the first volume. Can you please update it?" Lu Chengzhou said sincerely.
Gu Mang: "..."
…
New book pre-sale day.
Gu Mang arrived at the Medical Department in the morning, took the time to post on Weibo, put up the online pre-sale link for the new book, and then entered the laboratory.
This Weibo post was forwarded like crazy.
News that Dark's new book will be available for pre-sale quickly spread on Weibo, and it quickly became a hot search topic.
In just a few minutes, he jumped directly to the first place!
Watch as the hot search tail turns into a scarlet buzzword!
#Dark’s new book "Heng"# explodes
"Exploded, exploded, exploded again!!!"
"There are only 300 autographed copies in the whole country! The trending search was so popular that I cried! Now I know everything!"
"I don't deserve it! I can't even dream of it! I don't deserve an autograph! Let alone an autograph! I've never even gotten a signed autograph!"
“The only autograph you can’t buy with money is my dad [kneel down]”
"Qiuqiu, whoever got the autograph before, please take a photo for me! Let the kids take a look! I'll kneel down to see [kneeling]"
The last one went directly to the hot comments, with more than 200,000 likes.
Right on the cusp of this storm!
Huayueshe sent out a Weibo post.
Huayueshe V: Let me show you God D’s autograph [picture]
The picture was taken by Wen Ke when Gu Mang went to Huayue Club that day.
“My father’s hands are so beautiful!!!”
"Ahhhhhhhhh!!! Signed!!!!!!"
"Brothers and sisters! There is a hand in there! Didn't you see it?!!!"
"Ah, oh fuck! I saw it! Is it my mother's hand?! The cuffs of the black shirt! It must be my mother's hand!!!"
"Fuck! My mother opened the book! My father signed it! What kind of chosen son can have such a configuration!"
"My mother read the book, my father signed it, and there is a little baby accompanying me!!! What kind of chosen son can have such a configuration!"
"Ah, I almost forgot that my father is expecting a baby!!!"
"I'm so stunned!!! Is this a photo I can see without paying for it?!!!"
Exclamation marks fill the screen.
This photo of Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou made the whole Internet go crazy!
Weibo crashed and was quickly repaired.
That day, Huayueshe's phone number was flooded with calls. The book hadn't even been released yet, and the threshold for buying copyrights was almost over.
Finally, I was told that it had been sold to Qin's Pictures.
As the news spread, Qin's Pictures' stock price soared!
…
Pre-sale is set for 8 p.m.
Half an hour before the start.
Weibo has been flooded with news.
"Exciting moments are coming!! Show mercy, brothers and sisters!!!"
"My brothers and sisters are usually very affectionate, but when they were trying to get autographs, they didn't recognize me, and my head was bleeding. I wish I had my grave digged out."
"God D bless me!!! I am willing to use my sisters to be single for ten years in exchange for me to get the autograph!!!"
"Hahahahahahahaha, damn, that's so cruel!!!"
…
"Ahhh! There are still five minutes left! I'm so nervous! My hands are shaking!!!"
"I want to know that Weibo has crashed once... is a certain website ready... so that it doesn't crash again..."
"Impossible... A certain website's annual shopping festival event will not collapse. D God is just pre-sale of new books. It should be impossible."
"hope so… "
…
Eight o'clock sharp.
The network exploded again.
The entry #a站break# went directly to the hot search.
Some people's pages were unable to be displayed or refreshed!
"Fuck!! I told you earlier that station X should be ready! It collapsed! The autograph is gone! Oh fuck!"
"When the hell have I ever seen a station collapse!! I was so angry that my blood pressure soared! My autograph is gone!!!!"
Huayueshe watched the number of pre-sales skyrocket! !
In less than half an hour, the sales through the channel they were looking at had exceeded one million!
Not counting other channels! ! !
Record breaking! Another record broken! !
Dark has already set a physical book sales record, but her record can only be broken by herself! !
…
The days passed.
Dark's new work "Heng" is gradually reaching readers.
Originally, everyone only went there for the Dark brand, but after reading the new book "Heng", it directly triggered the entire network to urge for updates.
"Fuck! Immortal! Become a god again!!!"
"I finished reading it in half a day! It's so good!!! Wei Ming!!! My baby is going to be replaced again!!!"
"It is predicted that "Heng" will win the awards in the literary circle again!!!"
"I love it so much!!! It gives people a completely different feeling from D God's previous books!!! If D God's previous works are synonymous with black, cold, and depressive, "Heng" made me see the light!!! The starry sky is so amazing!!!”
"Me too, me too!!! Now when I look up at the stars, I feel different!!!"
"There is a surprise, has anyone noticed? The penultimate page of the book is white!!! A few lines of words will appear under the sun!!!"
"I discovered it! It can only be seen under the light!!!"
"I was still wondering why there were two blank sheets of paper at the end! I'm going to look under the sun now!!!"
…
I was in the depths of the mud, where it was dark and cold, even the stars were blocked. I gave up struggling, but I was unwilling to be imprisoned.
I indulged, vented, and indulged in the darkness.
Until you tear apart the darkness, crush the light, and give me the stars in the sky.
