Chapter 151 The World

The moment Lu Yichou set out to meet his foreign partners, he suddenly felt a sense of thought, and thought of a possibility, which was a businessman's intuition, talent, or experience of immersing himself in the mall for a long time. In short, he decided to delay it for a day.

Since signing Gu Yongsheng, I have communicated with him new books, talked about publicity, and talked about family matters for no thousand times, and there have been five hundred times. Although I can't say that I know him well (that guy is Ayutthaya if he is simple), I can still grasp some clues about his character.

He has never been so early or so deliberately to inform himself of a short story through text messages. There is only one possibility for him to do this, that is, he must personally attach great importance to this short story.

With Zhuyu "The True Story of Ah Q" in front of him, Lu Yichou could not ignore the signal sent by Liu Jingting. Moreover, when Liu Jingting mentioned this work, it happened to be after he sighed that he wanted to fight back against foreign partners. In other words, at least Liu Jingting himself believed that this short story had the potential to surprise those foreign booksellers.

On the way to the negotiations, Lu Yichou carefully planned how to hold back the arrogant French bookseller. He called Han Shuo first and informed him that he could be late for a while, and then notified Yi Shui'an to save the scene.

After doing these two things, he gave his assistant two more tasks, booked a private room in Beicheng and made an appointment with Master Zheng, the gold medal foot massage in Qianxing Foot City.

In fact, when Yi Shui'an arrived, Lu Yichou found that his last two arrangements were really unnecessary, because the bookseller from Paris, the romantic capital, was shocked when he saw Yi Shui'an and started talking with two clumsy Chinese words "It's a great pleasure to have friends coming from afar", and then talked from poetry and songs to philosophy of life. Then from philosophy of life to a street in Paris. At the same time, he also voluntarily canceled the flight back to China that night.

Lu Yichou sat aside with a smile, and occasionally interjecting a few words was very appropriate. After Han Shuo appeared, Yi Shui'an was about to stand up and say goodbye, but finally he could not withstand the enthusiasm of foreign friends, so he had to go to Beicheng together.

Lu Yichou struck while the iron was hot. In order to express his "apology", he had already booked a plane for this foreign partner tomorrow. The French bookseller who had turned into a gentleman early was naturally very grateful.

...

Liu Jingting, who had been on vacation for a day, was sitting next to the computer in the dormitory, typing the keyboard quickly with his fingers, just like he had always done.

In terms of length, "The Little Prince", which is translated into Chinese with only 25,000 words, is an authentic short story, but its narrative structure is sufficient to match the skillful use of excellent classical dramas or novels, preparation, development, and **. The flexible transformation of the first and third-person narrative methods all demonstrate the master-level writing skills and the beauty of classical narrative.

In terms of influence, this thin novel was once voted by French readers as the best book of the 20th century. Seventy years after its publication, it still sold million copies around the world, with a total sales of 200 million copies, second only to the Bible.

At the same time, "The Little Prince" is also a novel with the most translations. It has been translated into at least 250 languages ​​in rough statistics.

That classic quote full of Eastern Zen meaning has been passed down to this day and has become a gospel for generations of people who have been trapped in themselves.

"You have to see what is really important with your heart, because you can't see what is important with your eyes."

The child's vision is from a perspective, revealing the emptiness, blindness, foolishness and rigid dogma of adults, and using simple and naive language to write about the loneliness and fate of human beings that go with the flow. The story also criticizes and ridicules the relationship between money, and praises and praises the truth, goodness and beauty.

Liu Jingting still remembers the surprise when he saw this book in the library for the first time. It was similar to the situation when Sun Wukong first heard the Holy Dao, dancing and scratching his head.

Liu Jingting could easily recite those classic quotes in that world:

“It’s also very lonely in the crowd.”

"When you are sad, you like to watch the sunset."

“It is because you spend time on your roses that make your roses so important.”

"If a person has a special liking for a flower, and the flower is unique in the vast galaxy, then he will be satisfied as long as he looks up at the stars."

"If you tame me, we need each other..."

...

...

After a long time, when facing these words again, my mind was still so excited that it was hard to control myself. It was hard to imagine that such a fairy tale could actually defeat the hearts of those young men and girls who had just fallen in love and a group of literary and artistic youths and collapse.

The teenagers who do not know the taste of sorrow are simply unprepared for such words as "lonely among the crowd". Spending time with roses, the importance of roses is to fully demonstrate the importance of company.

Every moment of companionship with each other is irreplaceable, which leads to the words "truly luxurious dedication is willing to spend time with you."

As for the phrase "the unique flower in the galaxy" makes people in secret love or ambiguous periods unable to extricate themselves. Just imagine, if you have a special liking for someone, will you be moved when you hear the name of the city where he (her) is located?

...

"The Little Prince" is a fairy tale for adults, or a fairy tale for those who were once children. So Liu Jingting thought about writing a sentence before the beginning of the book, "I would like to dedicate this book to someone." But then hesitated and said, "This is a fairy tale, why do you have to dedicate so much? "

So Liu Jingting added at the beginning of the document: "I dedicated this book to Hu Xiaomi, Yi Shui'an, Qiao Keli, Gong Cheng'en, Wang Qianqian, Sun Xinyang, Yu Xiaoshu, Zhao Kan, and all the children and the children who have grown up. I hope everyone will not forget the days of playing with mud and carrying diapers."

After Liu Jingting finished writing this passage, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. He roughly browsed the entire document, then knocked on the wc of Lu Yichou and Yishuian, and wrote a sentence "Complete in advance, please check the email."

Then Liu Jingting sent "The Little Prince" to the encrypted email address of the two.

When Lu Yichou received the email message, he was lying in Qianxing Foot City to accompany Basil for foot massage. After seeing Liu Jingting’s message, he apologized to Basil first, and then replied, “Great! Thank you, we are talking outside, and we will reply to the evening.”

Yi Shui'an, who had already taken the opportunity to leave and returned to the office, replied with a word "Yes" on WC and opened the document as soon as possible.

For Yi Shuian herself, this encounter with "The Little Prince" was the most unexpected experience she has been studying. Almost every sentence, every word, and every word in the story touched her aesthetic point and penetrated her heart hard.

That was the first book she suddenly didn't dare to continue reading because she was afraid that she would disappear after reading it. She was afraid that after reading it, these words would disappear out of thin air after reading it.

Many readers of the ashes have had this experience. They love to be crazy about a book. Instead, they are worried about reading it.

This unprecedented experience and shock made Yi Shuian forget to reply to Liu Jingting after finally completing the reading. This is a novel that does not require any suggestions. The punctuation marks in it are all added too much, and the one is reduced too little.

Half an hour later, Yi Shui replied quietly: "Liu Jingting. Thank you for dedicating the book to me. I have been an author for a long time. I have been loved by many readers and become the so-called star author. You should know that I have no idea about stars or star chasing, but Liu Jingting, when this novel comes out, please sign me."

After Yi Shui'an sent this sentence, he turned to look out the window and happened to see the red sunset being about to go down the mountain. The afterglow of the sunset shone into a corner of the office through the large floor-to-ceiling windows.

"When you are sad, you will like to watch the sunset." Yi Shui'an said softly.

After Lu Yichou read "The Little Prince", he reacted calmly. He forwarded the email to Wei Wuzhi first, and then left a message: "Old guy, show you a famous book that will cause a sensation in the world."

When Lu Yichou said this, he naturally followed his usual exaggerated style, but later things magically verified his words. This was also a rare prophecy that he had a big mouth but was not slapped.

Wei Wuzhi left a message to Lu Yichou at three o'clock in the morning: "This is a great book, and other praises seem redundant."

The next day, Lu Yichuang and Wei Wuzhi jointly found Basil and read the manuscript for him. Although Basil was known as "China's Communication", he still kept a distance from Chinese characters. When the translation completed the whole story, Basil did not show the same surprise as Lu Yichuang and Wei Wuzhi, but just said politely: "You can cooperate with this story simultaneously."

The so-called synchronization means that the two versions of China and France are listed at the same time. The purpose of this is to create momentum and form global influence.

Lu Yichou and Wei Wuzhi looked at each other tacitly, knowing that Basil was playing psychological warfare. At that moment, Lu Yichou remained calm and said, "If you agree with this story, I would like to accompany you to meet Mr. Bolang."

Braun is naturally the backstage boss of Brazil.

Basil was sent to China, which has the largest market in the world, which shows his vision and work ability. However, now facing two scheming, his scheming is not as weak as his old fox. He is indeed not sure to successfully take advantage of the situation. It seems that taking the Lu surname to return to Paris with him is inevitable.

...

That night, Lu Yichou took a translator and Basil to Paris on the same flight.

Lu Yichou stayed in Paris for two days and successfully convinced Braun to meet Qianhong's British partner Elvis. In the end, the three parties decided to release "The Little Prince" simultaneously around the world!

This is another brilliant stroke written by Lu Yichou on his publishing resume.

Twenty-five days later, "The Little Prince" landed in China, Britain and France simultaneously. The "Little Prince Hurricane" quietly emerged from the Three Kingdoms, and then it swept across Asia and Europe with a powerful force, spreading across the world.

English is the most widely used language in the world, and Chinese is the most used language in the world. "The Little Prince", whether it is universal values ​​or the exploration of innocence and the ultimate emotions of human beings, can be regarded as a spiritual feast for all mankind!

Of course, it is also a big news that major media in the world are happy to see.

Le Monde was the first to be hit and was generous: "The Little Prince is a spiritual wealth shared by all mankind."

The Times believes: "This is a fairy tale written by Orientals to Westerners."

The Washington Post, who received the news later, commented concisely: "This is an eternal work!"

Compared with the above media, the New York Times has a more intense view. The female reporter named Jane Ning wrote in a complicated mood: "This is a work that is enough to shame the entire Western world's fairy tale author!"

The reporter expressed his views and emphasized the excitement and attention. If he took the mean route and was calm and gentle, the manuscript was even a problem even when he was published in the newspaper. One of the functions of the media is to cause controversy and thus lead the information trend. They particularly support fierce confrontations of views.

Of course, this is also a killer weapon for newspapers to increase sales.

The reaction of domestic media was slow due to various reasons. It was not until the whole world was looking for "superior liu" that domestic media began to move on a large scale.

...

Liu Jingting had known that this novel would be very popular, but he did not expect that this kind of popularity almost doubled the number in his bank card. This was the first time he had personally experienced the differences in treatment of best-selling authors from different countries.
