"The Worry-Free Grocery Store" is the most tender and clever novel Susan has ever read.
What made her unforgettable was the blank letter.
This letter is a prop used by the fugitive trio to test that the mailbox can travel through time and space. However, this letter was sent to the owner of the Jieyou Grocery Store, and he sent it back after answering it. In the story, the two groups of people who relieve others' worries, the first
This time there was an answer.
The owner’s answer was:
"If people who come to me for consultation are lost sheep, they usually have a map in their hands but don't look at it, or they don't know their current location. But I believe you don't belong to any of these situations.
Your map is a blank piece of paper, so even if you want to decide your destination, you don't know where the road is.
Having a map on a blank sheet of paper is of course very nerve-wracking and anyone would be at a loss.
However, think about it from another angle. Just because it is a blank paper, you can draw any map and everything is in your own hands. You are free and full of infinite possibilities. This is a great thing.
I sincerely pray that you can believe in yourself and burn your life without regrets."
An inadvertent piece of blank paper and a sincere answer brought an end to this book, and also to Susan's reading.
Susan took a long breath, put down the book and looked at her grandmother tenderly.
Grandma was also looking at her, with a smile in her eyes.
Grandma said: "This book is really good."
She felt like she had walked through the lives of a group of kind and healing people, extending the time for a few days.
Susan covered her with the quilt and said, "The author of the new book I want to publish is a - a very good person."
Grandma said nothing.
Susan paused for a while and said, "Grandma."
"Um?"
"I love you."
When Susan was a child, she lived with her grandmother. This book healed them for a while, but her grandmother healed her childhood.
Grandma smiled softly and slowly fell asleep.
Susan put the manuscript away. This book now has a more important meaning to her. It has cured the difficult time between her and her grandmother, lengthened their time and memories together, and made this time meaningful.
A marker.
This may be the greatest significance of the book.
Susan also proofread the book, and the next step is to start planning, designing and publishing. Their translation publishing house is different from Xu Guangzheng Publishing House. Most of the books they publish are foreign classics, and occasionally there are new foreign books, which are scheduled
There is no problem in postponing it.
The rest is published in the island country.
This was requested by the Big Devil. In her words, since it was written in an island country, how could it not be published in an island country?
This is not a big problem. They are responsible for the international copyright of "The Little Prince". Not long ago, a well-known publishing house in the island country contacted them to purchase the copyright and just continue to cooperate with them.
But just when Susan was about to contact them, her finger stopped on the name of an islander in her address book.
This is a colleague and an editor, and he works as an editor at Lukawa Bookstore, an equally large publishing house.
Susan had dealt with him before she was promoted. He was a very old-fashioned person, but he was worthy of the author's trust. They were dealing with the copyright issue of a book, and the author gave full authority to this editor because of his trust.
.
He does things in a very orderly manner, and you can tell from a glance that he is a very reliable person.
The Japanese version of "The Little Prince" has not yet been published, but Susan knows that "The Little Prince" has exploded in Europe and the United States, bringing it popularity in the island country. There are even animation companies that are already planning the animation in advance. But the one the Big Devil is looking for
The agent named Andy is a difficult person, and the big devil's conditions are very harsh, focusing on issues such as the copyright period and profit sharing, so the negotiations have not been completed for a long time.
But no matter what.
If Jiang Yang’s new work is published in the island country, there will definitely be many publishing houses willing to cooperate.
But most of them are just commodities.
Just like some books that are obviously good, but have to add a lot of book covers recommended by Internet celebrities, the original good books become daunting.
Based on the significance of this book to Susan, Susan felt that it was most appropriate to hand it over to this editor. No matter in terms of cover design, planning and publicity, he would definitely be more in line with the style and spirit of this book.
The editor's name was Mitsuaki Tada, and Susan sent him an email.
…
Rainy day.
It was suitable to stay at home, fall in love and make babies, but Jiang Yang had to step out.
He felt that his thinking was too simple.
A handmade artistic violin is really not that simple to make. Since it is custom-made, personalization must be taken into consideration.
Specific to aesthetics, strings, playing methods, etc.
This stumped Jiang Yang. If he had asked directly, the gift would have been less of a surprise.
He thought about it over and over again, making insinuations for a day. After a lot of fiddling, he roughly figured it out, but he didn't know if it could be done.
He held an umbrella and got out of the subway, then transferred to a bus, and finally got off the bus at the entrance of the alley he had come from. When he entered the yard again, rainwater dripped from the eaves into the jar, and the leaves were as green as wash, making it look like a unique scene.
Hong Shan and Wen Nier are both there.
Hongshan is taking action.
There is also an old man on the workbench, polishing wood. That is Mr. Hong, the master violin maker.
Jiang Yang took out a small notebook and hurriedly told the old man the relevant information.
The old man just said "hmm" a few times but didn't remember it. Jiang Yang didn't know if he remembered it.
Hong Shan asked him to sit down, "Don't worry, my dad has remembered it all."
He gave Jiang Yang another can of Coke. At this time, Mr. Hong said, "Hey, why are you drinking my Coke again?"
Jiang Yang stopped taking the Coke.
Hong Shan: "I'll make it up for you later."
Mr. Hong is old and likes to drink Coke. Hong Shan is afraid that he will have high sugar levels, so he stipulates that he have one can of Coke every two days. There are enough Cokes in the house. If Jiang Yang drinks one more can, the old man will drink one less can.
Mr. Hong then continued to work.
Jiang Yang thought, is it really appropriate for them to sit here drinking Coke and wine while the old man is working?
They sat down and chatted about the violin for a while, but Jiang Yang knew very little about the violin. Mr. Hong shook his head: "Those requests just now show that someone knows how to play the violin. It's really a waste to marry you."
Hong Shan told Jiang Yang to ignore the old man. He was old and a bit cynical.
They soon talked about Shi Shi again, and Hong Shan asked: "I heard that you gave him a script?"
"yes."
Jiang Yang thought it would be nice to play together.
Hong Shan gave Jiang Yang a thumbs up: "You are awesome! Now you are on his blacklist."
"ah?"
Jiang Yang didn't understand what was wrong with him.
"I don't know the specifics. I haven't read your script. After Shitou read it, I thought he was the caged bird." Hong Shan said Shitou wanted to break free. After reading the script, he got excited and wanted to close the store and resume his old business.
Then--
His wife started quarreling with him, and now Shitou is trying to coax her.
But Shi Shi also firmly stated that he would film this drama.
Now equals double difficulty mode.
"this--"
Jiang Yang felt that he had to contact Shitou. If the family broke up, he would be guilty.
The stone is at Uncle Wang's theater.
Uncle Wang and the others had a performance today. When Jiang Yang heard about it, he said goodbye to Hong Shan and went to the theater.
After Jiang Yang left, Wen Nier called Sister Chen: "Jiang Yang is gone."
"Okay, we'll go there later."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Nier shook her head.
The Big Devil knew Jiang Yang's intention and planned to come over later and tell Mr. Hong personally, but he did not intend to let Jiang Yang know.
