"Then please trouble Mr. Linden. If you need it, come and find me again." Yang Rui's head turned a little, and then agreed to Linden's words.

Linden smiled clearly and said, "Okay, I will definitely find a way to hold a grand publication introduction meeting for you."

Yang Rui smiled and shook hands with Linden.

If a scholar shows up, it is not called showing off, but about reporting work.

If scholars can't even show the limelight, how can they continue to do so? Yang Rui's ion channel laboratory is also supported by Peking University's funding. If Yang Rui cannot show the limelight, the laboratory will either not be able to hold on or have to be replaced.

Of course, American academic circles have higher requirements for fame, and publishing houses are probably used to making various jobs for authors to gain fame. Linden found a hotel and made arrangements, and then went to the school and college.

Peking University is in no way impossible.

Originally, publishing a book is very famous for Chinese people.

The so-called Supreme One has established virtue, secondly, made meritorious, and secondly, made words, and never abandoned for a long time. This is called the three immortals. Being able to publish a book, in the eyes of the Chinese, means making words.

In China in the 1980s, in this era of inferiority, confidence and turbulence, the open meaning and secret charm of being able to publish books in the United States are enough to make people feel intoxicated.

The reporters from Beijing TV station went out again, taking photos of Yang Rui while taking rare materials for the documentary.

According to the plan of Beijing TV, Yang Rui's documentary has actually been basically completed. Director Wang even started post-production editing, waiting for the Nobel Prize nomination next year before broadcasting. At that time, it should be the time when Yang Rui's news value is the highest.

Unfortunately, Yang Rui did not live according to the script of Director Wang or TV station, so Director Wang could only set up a camera while lamenting the editing time he wasted.

2 noon.

The teachers, officials and leaders who entered the venue one after another made only a small passageway to the small banquet hall of the Great Wall Hotel.

Yang Rui also looked at the decoration of the Great Wall Hotel with some curiosity.

By the standards of the 1980s, City Hotel is the first luxury hotel in China. It is also Sheraton Group's first joint venture hotel in China. It has a height of 21st floors and is built according to five-star standards, and is also charged according to five-star standards.

Nowadays, most Chinese people have heard of the Great Wall Hotel, but not many have come in.

It is like a five-star hotel in Mozambique. For the first time foreigners come, they would rather be more expensive than stay, while locals can only look up to them.

Yang Rui has been to the Great Wall Hotel, but this is the first time he has entered its banquet hall.

The venue is booked by various conferences every day, and its compactness is even greater than that of later wedding weekends.

Not sure what channels did Norton Publishing House take, so it took time to grab a room that could accommodate more than 200 people.

Obviously, this effect is very good.

All the invited guests came to the scene, especially some officials from relevant departments, who also took time out of their busy schedules and chose to go to the Great Wall Hotel to corruption.

If such a banquet is held in other hotels, although many people are willing to attend, they will definitely not come so many, especially just a publication briefing.

Yang Rui sat on the table in front and had a table with several officials from the Ministry of Education and publishing houses.

There are 20 tables in the banquet hall, and three English versions of "Genomics" are placed horizontally on each table, for guests to use. Next to "Genomics", there is a clear reminder: Please read it and put it back.

"It's amazing, did you write such a book by yourself?" Director Ma from the Ministry of Education picked it up and looked at it for a while, gently placed it in front of you, patted the cover with his hand, and commented: "The paper is really good, and the printed ones are colorful. There is also this picture, which is much higher than our level."

"Thank you." Yang Rui sat next to him, not knowing how to answer the evaluation of "good paper quality" and "good printing".

An official from the publishing house next to him laughed and said, "You see the price of this book. It's $130. If we have so much money, how good can we print it, it's almost like sprinkling gold foil."

"Didn't the Oxford Advanced Dictionary published by our Translation Press also print well? Especially in the past few years, Teacher Liu proofreaded it very seriously." Officials from the publishing press were still a little proud of this.

Director Ma turned the book and found the price of the book, confirmed the number, and asked in surprise: "It's true or false, a book is sold for $130? Americans are all suckers."

"American books are so expensive." Yang Rui interjected with a smile, so as not to let endless problems come out again.

"Where is the Chinese version? How much does the Chinese version cost?" Director Ma asked Yang Rui, then looked at the publishing house officials next to him.

"A book that thickens costs at least 13 yuan." The publisher was confused and asked Yang Rui: "Have you found a good publisher? Do you want us to help publish it?"

"Peking University Press will probably be released, I'm not sure, so wait a moment." Yang Rui was more willing to hand it over to Shi Gui's Press, so he just dragged it.

The publisher asked just a question, but Yang Rui did not agree immediately, so he stopped talking. After all, it was just an academic book. If it weren't for the English version, he wouldn't even need to ask.

In China, academic books are almost impossible to sell if they are not included in the textbook plan. Of course, the same is true for foreign countries. However, foreign textbook plans are formulated by various schools, which gives publishers a certain amount of living space. In China, plans are formulated from top to bottom. It is extremely difficult to include new textbooks. Naturally, the profit also comes from the public relations level, not the textbook level.

In this case, the publisher has basically no interest in publishing academic books. Even textbooks written by well-known professors often have to bear their own profits and losses, that is, first give the publisher's book number cost, printing cost and deserved profit, and then find a way to sell it yourself.

Yang Rui's books are a bit different. After all, he now carries a lot of gimmicks, but that's all.

Director Ma became interested in listening and asked with a smile: "Do you want to translate the Chinese version, or do you have a Chinese manuscript?"

"The Chinese manuscript needs to be modified, so there is one." Yang Rui really couldn't say that he wrote the English first.

In order to write this book, Yang Rui practiced English well. The English used in writing is much more difficult than writing a paper. Although references to the original work are still indispensable, this kind of imitation has always been a must for the author to learn.

Director Ma touched his beard and began to think about it.

Yang Rui picked up the water cup and pretended to drink water. He would rather no one talk to him.

Middle-aged and elderly domestic cadres in the 1980s were not good people to chat.

After a while, Lin stepped up to the front desk and said in English amidst the applause: "Now, I announce that the publication introduction meeting of "Genomics" written by Mr. Yang Rui of Peking University" officially began..."

There were Chinese people at the scene to translate at any time, which attracted even greater applause.

"The Great Wall Hotel and a dedicated person from a foreign publishing house are introduced. This book is very powerful." Director Ma turned to the other side and bit his ear.

"There are also reporters from the TV station and newspaper." He gestured to the door with his ear bitten, saying: "It's good, otherwise, all professors from Peking University's biology department could not attend, well... there are many Tsinghua University."

"That is to say, this book is really good." Director Ma nodded slightly.

"What did you think of?" The one who was bitten by his ears noticed something.

Director Ma touched his chin and beard, smiling without saying a word.

"You are thinking of Director Zhu's son." The mind that was bitten by his ears changed and he whispered in reverse.

Director Ma blinked: "Do you know?"

"Who doesn't know that Director Zhu's son's professional title is still a little short of his working years. He is getting the conditions for an extraordinary promotion recently."

"You really know."

"What do you want to do?"

"Do you think it's appropriate?" Director Ma glanced at Yang Rui and his voice became even lower.

"It's okay. Whether it's the translation or the original, it's all considered to be published. It doesn't take time to operate it. Besides, his English version has his own name, so the Chinese version shouldn't care." The guy who was bitten with his ears wisely raised several questions.

Director Ma nodded slowly and looked at Yang Rui again, smiling.
