Chapter 136 New Members (Chapter 8)
"Pu! Pu! Pu…"
In the afternoon, the rain became heavier again, and the raindrops hit the glass windows, making a dense sound.
Evan walked into the house in the rain and put the wet umbrella into the umbrella bucket in the entrance hall.
He just sent Virginia back.
As soon as he entered the room, Evan saw Audrey sitting on the sofa, holding her knees with her hands, and her chin resting on her bent thigh knees, her eyes were dull and she didn't know what she was thinking.
"Hi!"
Evan deliberately made a sound, awakening Audrey, then sat next to her and reached out to take her into her arms.
"Are you still worried?"
Just at lunch, Audrey told the Evans brother and sister about the producer's coercion to attend the dinner.
Virginia was naturally indignant and persuaded Audrey to quit.
Although Audrey was angry, she didn't seem to want to give up participating in the performance.
Audrey hugged Evan's waist with her backhand, rubbed her face against his chest, and whispered: "Evan, I thought about it, I want to go to the crew as usual tomorrow."
"I don't want to end it so easily, after all, I've been rehearsing for so long... I don't want my sweat to flow in vain."
"And, this is wrong with the producer, but Mr. Abbott is not bad to me, and I can't make him embarrassed."
"So, Evan..."
Evan stroked Audrey's arm gently and replied, "Audrey, no need to explain, I understand."
"I won't object to your decision."
"But after this, I think you understand that the stage on Broadway is not only bright and beautiful, but also not only the sewage flows behind it, but at least some pickled things do exist."
"So, I hope you are vigilant and keep Isla and the others with you all the time, and don't forget the props in your bag if necessary."
Audrey said docilely: "Well, I get it!"
"Also, if someone wants to sign a contract with you, don't agree."
"Um?"
“If you want to officially enter Broadway or even Hollywood, I will set up a dedicated team to help you run it.”
Speaking of this, Evan reached out and intertwined with Audrey's left hand, "Because you have made a lifelong agreement with me, you can only sign a contract with me."
Audrey looked at the ring on the middle finger of her left hand and smiled, "So domineering! Can I regret it?"
"cannot!"
As he said that, Evan blocked Audrey's mouth with his mouth.
The next day, Abbott breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Audrey appearing in the theater with a calm expression.
...
A week later, another weekend.
Members of the California Institute of Technology's "Plant Walker House" club came out of the printing factory, and each of them held several bags of card bags that had not yet been launched.
Still in the car, everyone couldn't wait to unpack the card bag.
Some people are lucky, while others are unlucky.
Instead of going back to school, they went to a park.
They came out today and were going to have a spring outing by the way.
Although the choice of traveling is very casual.
The weather is very good today, the sky is blue, the breeze is gentle, and the temperature is comfortable.
Evan was a little sorry for not bringing Audrey with him.
Everyone found a flat grass in the park, laid a blanket, unloaded the food he brought from the car, and then... the war started.
Ten people, two people in a group, based on the card live deck he just got, the winner of the battle can choose three cards from the loser's deck as trophy.
Evan did not participate, but he sponsored ten boxes of expansion as a prize.
Gillard followed and pestered Evan.
"How is Miss Virginia's novel done?"
Gillard wanted to use novels as a helping hand when they were introduced to the market as cards, so he paid special attention to the progress of the novel.
Evan glanced at Gillard and said, "The first one has been completed, but Virginia is not satisfied and is revising it."
"So, if you want to wait for the novel to be launched and then release cards simultaneously, don't think about it. With Virginia's current state, it doesn't take a few months to modify it or ten times, she won't release the novel."
Gillard was a little disappointed when he planned to completely fail, but he quickly turned his attention to something else.
"Evan, about the card game system..."
Evan explained the three types of competition systems, including the current draw and the standard, to Gillard in detail.
Gillard then understood why Evan asked him to open a physical card store before. This was to give players a place to get together to play.
The "Planet Walker House" community that Evan accidentally gave birth to can actually be regarded as a branch system of a brand store.
Gillard felt that relying on the card store system and the "Planet Walker House" school club, a formal and distinctive series of competitions can be easily organized.
When Gillard thought that there would be thousands of players gathering together to compete in the future, he suddenly felt excited and had high fighting spirit.
A group of people gathered together in the park to play novel card games, which naturally attracted a lot of people's attention. Not long after, there were about a dozen uninvited audiences.
Naturally, the audience would not just watch but not speak. Orville, who also did not participate in the competition, became a tour guide.
"Everyone tells me that we are from the California Polytechnic's "Plane Walker House" club, and the card they play is also called the "Plane Walker House".
"So, what is a plane walker? This is a long way to say..."
Seeing Orville taking the opportunity to promote the community and the "parallel world theory", Evan, who was beside him, was so impressed.
Orville, who was very eloquent, made it easy to understand the concept of a nasty “parallel world”, and for a moment, many people believed his words.
After hearing this, someone asked, "Oville, since there are countless parallel worlds, is there such a world where dwarfs exist?"
"Of course it's possible! Maybe Snow White's story was told from the mouth of the people in that world, well, it should be said that they were plane walkers."
Naturally, many people are interested in cards.
"Oville, this card game is quite interesting, but why isn't it sold in the store?"
"That's very simple, because it's not available yet."
“When will it be officially launched?”
At this time, Gillard stood up and replied, "June!"
"Can we try it?"
"certainly!"
In this way, the original spring outing became a new product promotion trial party.
It was almost five o'clock, and the event ended.
At the end, Evan said to members of the club such as Orville, Rick, and others: "Sorry, everyone has not been able to finish their fun."
Rick waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I can organize the game back to the dormitory anyway!"
Orville said: "I feel so lucky that we came out."
"Why do you say that?"
Evan asked.
"Jack!"
