Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 72 Negotiating the Signing Process

Upon hearing the voice, the security personnel of the Tsarist King Hotel turned around, and when they saw Jenny Norfolk, they immediately greeted her with a smile.

"Honorable Miss Jenny Norfolk, I'm sorry, please forgive my rudeness just now."

Jenny Norfolk is the little princess of the Ficharron-Howard family, although she is not very old. But she often goes out with her father on weekdays, so the people at the Tsarist King Hotel naturally recognize her.

The Duke of Norfolk's fame is not only in Scotland, but even in the whole of England. And it is also the head of the noble class. Among the nobles, the duke is the first rank and the highest status.

There are three origins of this title: one is the military chief of Germanic tribes during the disintegration of European clan society; For 'commander'. With the development of feudal relations and the strengthening of royal power, the duke became the upper class figure in the ruling class. In the United Kingdom, the duke was originally entrusted by King Edward III in the fourteenth century, and all the dukes were members of the royal family. After the fifteenth century, this practice was broken, and a small number of non-royal people were also named dukes.

Although Jenny Norfolk's father was not a member of the royal family, his status was prominent, and no one dared to underestimate him. Therefore, the security personnel of the Tsarist King Hotel dared not to be arrogant. After seeing the 18-year-old Jenny Norfolk, they immediately apologized obediently. Not only that, but they were afraid that Kevin would hold a grudge, so they immediately apologized to Kevin.

"My dear sir, I'm sorry, please forgive me for my contempt just now. I hereby make my most sincere apology to you."

"My friend, it's a small matter. There is an old saying in China in the East, "Those who don't know are not guilty." Kevin said.

With such a simple sentence, Jenny Norfolk instantly felt that Kevin was so knowledgeable and versatile. yes. He knows all the ancient Chinese sayings in the far east, which proves that the number of readings of the other party is amazing.

But Jenny Norfolk wouldn't know that in Kevin's mind --- the far east, that place called Huaxia, he was so familiar with it once.

"Thank you, honorable sir, thank you for your generous understanding." The security personnel immediately thanked.

"You are not allowed to bully him when he comes here in the future, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." Jenny Norfolk said.

"Yes, honorable Miss Jenny Norfolk. It is our fault."

"Okay, I've fixed the location, we're going up."

"you please……"

The security personnel immediately made a gesture of invitation with a smile on their faces. They didn't wipe the sweat from their brows until Jenny Norfolk and the others had left. Fortunately, the baby daughter of the Duke of Norfolk was not angry with her, otherwise she would have been fired.

"Honorable Miss Jenny Norfolk, this is Mr. Kevin, the author of Wuthering Heights." Editor-in-Chief Enni introduced at this time.

"Hello, Jenny Norfolk, you can call me Jenny."

After Jenny Norfolk finished speaking, she proactively extended her hand. Kevin didn't hesitate, and immediately reached out with a smile and shook hands with the other party.

Eighteen-year-old women's hands are different, they are so soft and comfortable. Moreover, this is the hand of a girl born in a noble family, so the feeling is even more different.

Jenny Norfolk has always been looking forward to meeting this talented and learned writer, and now the real person is in front of her eyes. And he is so handsome, with a noble temperament in the ordinary.

In her opinion, Kevin is no worse than those noble boys.

"Miss Jenny Norfolk's smile is really unique, as charming as the Celonis in Edinburgh Park." Kevin said.

Celonisan is a kind of flower species in Edinburgh Park. It blooms in July and August every year. When the flowers bloom, its fragrance will fill the entire Edinburgh Park, making passers-by deeply fascinated by it and unable to bear to leave.

Jenny Norfolk was delighted that Kevin could compare his smile to that of a Celoni mulberry. Because the Celonisan flower is in the minds of Edinburgh people, and it also means to be happy.

"Thank you for your praise. You are really a talented writer. Even your speech has a strong literary taste." Jenny Norfolk said.

Everyone walked and chatted, and soon came to the reserved room. The room is very elegant, with a picture of Jack Noah hanging on the wall, a hero in Scottish mythology. Scotland was almost flooded by heavy rain back then, but it was Jack Noah who used his body to accept the sinful punishment, and then Scotland was saved from a disaster. Therefore, many people have photos of Jack Noah posted in their homes. On the one hand, it is a tribute to the mythical hero, and on the other hand, they pray that Jack Noah will bless them with good weather.

"Kevin, our purpose this time is to explain to you the signing of "Wuthering Heights". Due to the invitation of a bookstore, we plan to start the signing in Edinburgh." Editor-in-Chief Enni said.

"Yes, I'm very glad that one of our bookstores can invite Mr. Kevin to sign the book. Again, I would like to express my sincere thanks." The general manager of a bookstore said.

This was originally a trivial matter. As the general manager of a bookstore, he could not have attended today's event. But the eighteen-year-old Jenny Norfolk came over. He also came over to take a look.

"Thank you for your invitation. I feel very happy at the moment. There is nothing more pleasing than this." Kevin thanked.

"Well, everyone has no objections. I think we can discuss the specific process of signing. For example, interacting with readers." A person from a bookstore said.

So, everyone discussed the signing of "Wuthering Heights". In order to meet the needs of readers, both the bookstore and the publishing house decided to hold a short question and answer session on the spot. However, Kevin put forward his own thoughts on this, that is, only five questions can be asked at most.

The publishing house and a bookstore also respected Kevin's ideas. After all, in this parallel world country, the author has many rights to make suggestions.

After the Q\u0026A session ended, it was time for Kevin to sign the deal. After the signing is over, readers can also choose to take a photo with Kevin.

In this way, the general process of signing and selling has been discussed by both parties. Everything seems more harmonious. It's just that Jenny Norfolk stared at Kevin from time to time during the conversation, as if she was a long-starved she-wolf. In fact, she had also been hungry for a long time.

After discussing the signing process, Jenny Norfolk took out a copy of "Jane Eyre" that she had read several times from her bag, and put it on the table.

"Kevin, before the "Wuthering Heights" signing event, please sign "Jane Eyre" first, I don't think you will refuse, right?" Jenny Norfolk said.

"Of course, I am very grateful that you also like my novels. It is the greatest luck for me to have one more reader."

After Kevin finished speaking, he took the "Jane Eyre" handed over by Jenny Norfolk with both hands, then took out a quill from his bag, and signed himself on the front page of "Jane Eyre" name.

This is the art signature he thought up last night, and he didn't expect to be able to experiment today. He looked at it and found it quite satisfactory.

Jenny Norfolk also showed a smile on her face after getting Kevin's autograph. Then put "Jane Eyre" well into the bag.
