In the continuous London drizzle, in front of the British branch of Random House.
JK Rowling, with her hand, caressed the author's commemorative edition of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" over and over again, her heart filled with a mix of emotions.
Now, the next time someone asked about her profession, she could proudly declare herself a "writer."
And she no longer had to repeatedly explain to her parents and friends about publishing books online.
She tucked the physical book into her embrace with a smile, then opened her umbrella and leisurely strolled in the rain.
Meanwhile, in the suddenly chilly New York, Wang Jian was sitting in his office, listening to Tom's work report.
"Thanks to Random House's massive publicity, 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' has made it onto the bottom of the bestseller lists,"
"And, its first day's sales numbers are at the top of the fiction sales charts."
