Han Qi searched the Internet for the Norwegian Royal Foundation Publishing House. This publishing house is mainly based in Norway and radiates to several surrounding countries.
What Ingrid said just now should be what Princess Margery wanted to say, give the book to the lovers who are in love. It just so happens that Han Qi is also a writer who has created many best-selling works. Whose book will be published if his book is not published?
Before this, Ingrid had never been exposed to the publishing industry, let alone writers.
Han Qi finished checking the information about this publishing house and took back his mobile phone. Ingrid was sitting by the bed and scrolling through Douyin in China on her mobile phone.
Han Qi hugged her to him and asked the panicked Xiaolu: "How was the book before?"
Some time ago, the book that Han Qi gave to Ingrid was intercepted by the princess, and then published by this company. Han Qi still doesn't know the effect. The time is too short, and the domestic sales data have not been compiled yet.
.
It is a royal family and a princess, so it is quite appropriate to hand it over to a publishing house related to the royal family.
"What book? I forgot, is the name Princess Anne?"
She hesitated, and of course Ingrid remembered the name of the book, Roman Holiday.
Princess Anne has a nice name, and so does the name Roman Holiday. The only person in the world who can come up with such a nice name is Han Qi, she thought to herself, and said that she must visit Rome in the future to see what the stone statues will look like.
He will not bite the hand of a liar.
"Not Princess Anne." Han Qi said, "Call her Princess Ingrid."
Ingrid has always brought the Princess Anne in the book into herself, and now Han Qi has confirmed this even more.
Boom, boom, boom!
While the two were having a sweet moment, there was a knock on the door. Han Qi was startled, and Ingrid quickly got off the bed and straightened her beautiful skirt.
Don't come in at this time!
The two of them thought of this sentence at the same time.
Han Qi hasn't done anything yet. If someone comes in now and sees Ingrid adjusting her skirt over there, Han Qi will die unjustly.
Fortunately, no one opened the door directly and came in. Ingrid also finished tidying up and sat on the chair next to the bed.
Han Qi shouted: "Who is it?"
"Mr. Han Qi, Princess, please come downstairs for breakfast."
Ingrid glared at Han Qi: "You are so lazy. When I sit in this position, I always feel like I am taking care of a patient."
Han Qi first replied loudly: "It's coming, very soon." Then he said to Ingrid, "Forget about breakfast, you can bring it to feed me at noon. I won't even be a patient for your meal."
relation."
Ingrid picked up the pillow and threw it on Han Qi's head.
"Go quickly!"
Han Qi dressed neatly and came to the restaurant.
If you think of this as a company's office building, the size is quite appropriate, but if it is just a home for one family, it seems a bit luxurious.
When you leave the room and go downstairs, you have to pass a very large spiral staircase.
The design of this staircase was hundreds of years ago, but it has never been outdated even now. In fact, the classical architectural style is not outdated whether in China or abroad. It’s just that the modern population is too large, so there are so many
of high-rise buildings.
Walking along this grand staircase from the second floor, the restaurant where you usually eat is on the left hand side of the first floor.
The left side is more used daily, while the right side has many more social attributes, such as banquet halls and dance halls. Han Qi also knew that a very modern game room and KTV room were built on the third floor. The sound insulation is very good, unless people are right at the corridor door
Otherwise, you won’t hear any sound at all.
When you walk into this room, there is a long table in front of you. King Harald and Queen are not there.
If there is nothing to discuss, the king is usually brought to the office to eat, and then the queen goes to eat with him. The prince and princess often go to the restaurant on the first floor to eat, where the light is brighter and you can see
Looking at the garden outside the window,
As soon as Han Qi walked in, the prince's laughter stopped and he said majestically: "Sit down."
This feeling brought Han Qi back to his student days, but the pressure the prince put on him at this time was far less than the pressure his father put on him at the beginning. On the contrary, he felt that the prince's character, who pretended to be majestic, was a little cute.
Because based on occasional chats and contacts over the past few months, the prince is a very gentle and patient person.
But just like the father-in-law all over the world, he hopes to maintain a majestic image in front of his son-in-law. Han Qi can understand this feeling. After all... after all, if he puts himself in his shoes, if he gives birth to a daughter in the future, she will wear a warm little cotton-padded jacket.
Twenty years later, suddenly one day this little cotton-padded jacket was draped on someone else.
It’s an uncomfortable feeling just thinking about it.
So Han Qi was still very friendly to the prince's father-in-law, and said calmly: "Okay."
The table is a long table like those in banquet halls, but not that long. It can seat three people on one side, and including the one on the edge, it can seat eight people in total.
Sometimes Ingrid's aunt would come back and the family would sit here, which was just enough space.
Princess Margery said: "We saw Ingrid going to your room just now. She told you about the publishing house."
"Yes, I just knew."
"I have read your books, especially the travel notes. We have read the English version from Flammarion Press. The words are beautiful and the scenery described is very detailed, but we would like to see the Norwegian version translated by you personally.
Chinese version, is this okay?”
"No problem, it's easy for me and only takes three days to complete."
His typing speed is very fast, and this is just typing, not creating. If you are a little serious, two days is enough. No matter how many words he has in his travel notes, they are all in the range of 200,000 to 300,000 words.
.
But when it comes to travel notes, Han Qi remembers that she still owes fans a copy.
From Liangshan to Ganzi, and then from Litang back to Chengdu, Han Qi saw so many scenery and experienced a lot of kindness from the local people. There was still a lot he wanted to write.
I will first translate the Norwegian version of the travelogue, and then spend a few days writing a new travelogue.
I just don’t know if I can finish it before getting engaged.
"By the way, there is one more thing." The prince suddenly remembered something and raised his head and said.
Han Qi was drinking milk. Hearing this, he put down the cup and licked it subconsciously. He looked at the prince and made a humming sound to show that he was listening.
Princess Margaery suddenly laughed.
"You and Ingrid are really destined to be together, even their little actions are the same."
There was a sound outside the room.
"How can I not!"
Everyone looked over, and Ingrid's body appeared on the right side of the door. She turned sideways and looked into the room. She was pouting, showing her little fists and waving them.
There was no strength at all, but it made everyone laugh. The prince did not become sullen and asked with a smile:
"Come and eat."
"I've already eaten. I got up very early today."
The prince turned back to Han Qi and said, "I remembered something. Prince Charles of England will come for your engagement."
Gu E
Prince Charles?
The image of a white-haired old man appeared in Han Qi's mind.
Because of his relationship with Norway, he also paid attention to many royal members of other countries. He remembered that Prince Charles was born in 1948, and he is already... seventy-four this year?
The Queen is still very energetic. In the past few years, she has remained the same as in previous decades. She spends half of her time visiting the country and the other half of her time working in the country.
Judging from this trend, Prince Charles is not only the longest-serving crown prince in British history, he may...
Forget it, don't think about such a thing.
Han Qi asked: "What... is he here for?"
If it is a formal wedding, then it would definitely be appropriate for Prince Charles to come, but this is just an engagement. Do you really want to treat the engagement as a wedding?
"Anyway, it's a good thing. I just need to tell you. Don't make a fool of yourself in public. A lot of media will come by then."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The princess smiled and said, "Just call him by his name. We will all be a family from now on."
Ingrid listened at the door for a long time, then came out and sat next to Han Qi to cheer him up: "Yes, just call him Magrus."
Han Qi grew up in China. He did not dare to call his father-in-law by his first name, so he tentatively shouted: "Then I will call you, father-in-law?"
"snort!"
This reminded Haakon of the sad thing again. His only daughter was already someone else's.
The princess smiled happily, and Ingrid also grabbed Han Qi's hand under the table.
After eating and returning to the room, Han Qi began to sort out previously published books.
There is only one novel, Roman Holiday, and the others are all travelogues.
Han Qi's travel notes are selling well abroad, especially the one on the Mongolian grasslands. Many people have left messages for Han Qi, wanting to continue to see this kind of travel notes full of western style.
Miraculously, the domestic sales of this book rank lowest among Han Qi's publications.
I guess the Chinese people are not very interested in riding horses and galloping on the grassland.
He spent more than a day translating this travelogue according to his own way of speaking. Wang Zheng asked someone else to translate the English one. Han Qi just read it once and checked it, and published it when he thought there was no problem.
Translation is not just about translating the original vocabulary into another language.
For example, it is difficult to translate the original meaning of Chinese Tang poetry and Song lyrics.
Time passed quickly, and the day that everyone was looking forward to came in the midst of busy work. Han Qi just handed the novel to Wang Zheng yesterday, and it was written in Chinese. Han Qi had no time to write this novel in Norwegian as well.
.
On the first night of their engagement, Han Qi and the others had already stayed in a villa on the coast of Norway.
There are many places in Norway that can be said to be seaside. The fjord landscape is full of river-like seas, and waterways extend in all directions. However, the water flow in this place is relatively gentle and cannot wash away the beautiful sediment like on the Pacific islands.
Therefore, a certain king in ancient times had people dig out sand and built a beach by himself in a very beautiful place in Norway.
Then a castle was built along the way, just like an ancient Chinese palace.
Emperors of China like to build palaces because the temperature in China varies greatly, and each place has its own weather. In twelve months, there are always one or two places that are most suitable for people to live, so rich people
Lived a migrating life like a migratory bird.
On the other hand, Norway has a small land area, high latitude, and slow weather changes.
A palace built under such circumstances was simply built for fun.
This is indeed the case. The environment here is very good. It is still early spring outside and when the branches have just sprouted green buds, the island is already full of green trees. The singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers can fully describe this place.
It's a big island with a garden and a stadium.
But there are no residents, there are people who are responsible for taking care of and maintaining this place.
Han Qi finally understood why so much money was allocated to the royal family every year, but the Ingrid family still lived so frugally. They didn't have many family members, but they had to rely on their own rent to live.
The case was solved.
Han Qi's dream was actually to build such a large manor, but he didn't expect that Ingrid and his family had already done it.
And they have two more castles like this.
Sure enough, it is impossible for someone to hold power in a place for hundreds of years without something.
Han Qi chatted with his parents all night and went back to his room to sleep late at night. Ingrid was also nervous. She didn't know when she fell asleep, but she was woken up by the plane coming the next day.
The small private airport is constantly busy with flights.
There are also ships gradually docking.
The originally empty ground of the castle quickly became a banquet hall without Han Qi's knowledge. Today's sun may also understand that this is a good day for Han Qi. Instead of following the trend of spring and summer, it is as warm as the sun in winter.
Same.
The sea breeze of the Arctic Ocean blows on the beach, and the cool and comfortable feeling surprises everyone who comes here.
A businessman said: "I didn't expect it to be so beautiful here. I didn't know it before."
"This route was closed before. I only know it is the property of the royal family, but I don't know what it looks like. It's really nice to see it today. After I go back, I want to buy an island and transport some sand from the Pacific Ocean."
The businessman looked enviously at the beach in front of him, where a group of children were playing.
There are also many people playing in the Arctic Ocean water.
Although it is cold, Norwegians are not afraid of it. They are relatively frost-resistant.
Several teams of invited media, wearing their company uniforms, were busy in the open space, helping the nanny arrange some festive things for the banquet hall. And because Han Qi was Chinese, the gringo in charge of setting up the venue also made two
To a great extent.
This kind of aesthetics made Han Qi shudder. After getting up, he drove away the person and arranged it himself.
Architectural design, interior design, calligraphy, painting, sculpture and other professions can enhance a person's aesthetics. It was only after Han Qi was influenced by the aesthetics of these professions that he could match his clothes with a sense of fashion and draw top-notch paintings.
An oil painting that would make any painter ashamed.
Setting up such a venue is naturally simple.
When Ingrid also got up and saw the field outside, she was satisfied and said to her mother beside her: "Who did this? I like it very much."
"It's your fiancé."
As soon as the word fiancé came out, Ingrid felt very sweet, but her face still remained shy, her eyes secretly looking for where Han Qi was.
This is not an act of shyness,
The sweetness in my heart and the shyness on my face.
This complex expression is what love should look like.
