Chapter 272
Kom came to pick him up in a black Ford Fiesta. It seemed that Kom was quite frugal, working in such a company as the editor-in-chief, but still driving such a car.
It's not that the Ford Fiesta is bad. The price/performance ratio of this car is very good, but it is indeed a bit cheap.
Ke Mu saw the bookstore opposite Ye Kai, opened the window and said cheerfully, "How about it, how does it feel to see your books being sold one by one?"
Ye Kai also smiled and said, "It feels very cool. Half of the books sold in this store today are Harry Potter. It seems that this book is somewhat well-known in the UK."
"Don't talk about popularity, Sean, let me tell you, this book will definitely become a super bestseller, for sure." Ke Mu said confidently, and then shook his head, "Hurry up and get in the car."
Opening the car door to get in the car, Ye Kai said as soon as he sat down, "A new car?"
"My car broke down and is being repaired. This belongs to one of my subordinates. Everyone who knew that I was coming to pick you up let me drive their car. Haha, do you want to go and meet them?"
"Huh? I saw you last time."
"It's different today," said Komm.
Who knew who Ye Kai was the last time I went there?There are so many people who come to sign contracts every day, and there are countless manuscripts to read that they don't know whether they can sign or not. Who would have predicted that a book with children as the protagonists would be so popular?
Even Kom, who is most optimistic about this book, didn't expect it.
Ye Kai didn't expect that Ye Kai was worried about gains and losses when he sold so little before, but now he thinks it's not very real to sell so hot Ye Kai, after all, this is not the country.
After all, I didn't go to see the people from the publishing house.
Ke Mu directly drove the car to his home, which was a quiet and peaceful street, and Ke Mu lived in a house of about two to three hundred square meters.
There are gardens in the front and back. The area of the garden is not counted, and the house alone has more than [-] square meters.
Really envious.
The car went straight into the yard, and Kom's car was in for repairs, so it just made it into the garage.
When they came out, Ke Mu's wife took their children and looked at the two of them in the front yard. Ke Mu was so fat, but his wife was very good-looking. The older of the two children was about ten years old, and the younger was probably only about seven years old.
They were all boys, wearing the same type of blue clothes.
The appearance is very cute, and I think they will be two handsome boys when they grow up, but was Kom good-looking when he was thin?Fat people are all potential stocks?
Otherwise, why is the wife I chased after beautiful, and the two children are also so beautiful?
But don’t talk about persuading people to lose weight. If you say it, others will think you dislike him for being fat. You are here as a guest, so don’t say anything that offends others.
"Sean, this is my wife, just call her Clara, these are my two children, the older one is 11 years old, and the younger son is seven years old..."
He introduced them to Ye Kai one by one, and finally introduced the big dog he raised at home, a golden retriever with a shoulder height of [-] to [-] centimeters.
The dog kept wagging its tail when it saw Ye Kai, with a flattering look on its face that humans could see, and Ke Mu was so angry that he kept chasing the dog away. He didn't know whether Ye Kai liked dogs or not.
Seeing their father walking aside, the two children hurried over and asked, "Uncle, Uncle, are you the one who wrote Harry Potter? That Harry Potter..."
"Yes, that's me."
Ye Kai saw the innocent and cute appearance of the two of them, so he knelt down to chat with them, and said, "Do you like watching Harry Potter too?"
The two children said in unison: "I like it very much."
"Uncle, is there really a broom that can take people to the sky? What kind of game is Quidditch? Can we play it?"
"Uncle Uncle, do you know magic? Can you fly?"
Ke Mu came over to rescue Ye Kai, and said, "You two, don't hang around uncle, Harry Potter is fake, it's fake..."
These two kids are going crazy these two days, they have to go to Hogwarts to go to school, I really want you to go, but you can't receive the letter from the owl?
Who can blame this?
Kom looked at the two children who were running away and said, "Oh, it's really difficult to take care of children of this age, what do you think?"
Ye Kai shrugged and said, "I don't have children yet."
The horoscope has not yet been written, he has not planned this matter at all now, it would be terrible if he had a child now, wouldn't he have no time to travel around.
And Saoirse is still in her freshman year.
"Oh." Ke Mu shook his head at Ye Kai and said regretfully, "That's really boring."
It turns out that raising children is for fun, and you have seen it and you have seen it, but when you think about it carefully, it is really the same thing. Raising sons and daughters is also a form of cultivation.
Playing nurturing games is also nurturing.
Raising sons and daughters = raising games.
Playing games, isn't it fun?
But raising a child costs real money, tens of thousands of dollars at every turn, without that money, it's really hard to say that a god or goddess can be raised.
Lunch is red wine and pineapple pie.
Ke Mu is not bragging, the pineapple pie made by his wife is the best Ye Kai has ever tasted.
Ye Kai seldom eats pineapple pie for dinner, but sometimes at the airport, Ye Kai likes to eat some pineapple pie or mango pie in the restaurant before boarding the plane.
He'd always eaten this as a snack, but now the pineapple pie he's eating can be a real meal.
The baked crispy bread was wrapped with thick pineapple jam. After eating, Ye Kai went to Clara to learn how to make this pineapple pie. It is very skillful, and it is very good to make it yourself to satisfy your cravings or give it to others.
Kom routinely takes a nap after lunch, as does his family.
But because Ye Kai came, Ke Mu canceled his plan to take a nap, came to the publishing house on time before going to work in the afternoon, dragged Ye Kai to the lobby of the publishing house and said.
"This is the creator of the miracle, Mr. Ye!"
These employees didn't know whether it was true or false, they applauded one after another, and some even blew hooligan whistles to enliven the atmosphere.But... are you serious?
I am only an author, yours is an editor.
However, Ye Kai has seen many micro-expressions, and soon discovered that these people were all looking at Ke Mu, and they were not paying attention to him at all.
Ye Kai is not under their control, even if Ye Kai's book sells well, it has nothing to do with them. On the contrary, it makes the editor-in-chief happy, and their work may be less.
It seems that the habit of flattering leaders is not unique to Huaxia.
After the introduction, Ke Mu found a few relevant employees to discuss the signing event with Ye Kai. It was definitely not the first time for them to hold a signing event. The main reason for the discussion was the location.
I don't know how many times I have done other processes.
Kom suggested to hold the Harry Potter signing event directly in Pigeon Square, the largest square in London, but Ye Kai always felt that it was too risky.He was mainly afraid that no one would come.
When the domestic media finds out, don't mention how ugly it will be.
A few days ago, Ye Kai had seen their faces clearly.
