Moreover, in addition to being a writer, most writers today also have other prominent identities, all of which overlap, whether they are businessmen or businessmen, and have many connections. To offend an entire industry rashly is to seek death!
It is better to be like light and dust.
Since the alley is deep, let the aroma of wine linger for a while.
It's been floating for a long time...
Someone can always smell it!
"Mr. Bai, have fun!"
Manager Liao was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face. He also spoke more highly of Bai Gui.
It's not uncommon for things to come up for sale.
The Commercial Press will not force it, but it will inevitably lower the impression in my heart.
These impressions are usually of little use. As long as the work sells well, the publishing house will naturally accept it...
It's about making money, it's about business, it's about making money.
But if people just memorize words, it’s hard to say.
In the past, some small flaws were covered up by the light, and no one would care. But once the light is gone, the flaws will stand out, and people will hate them.
"But regarding translation, I hope your bureau will consider whether it is possible to hire a high-level student studying in Japan..."
"They are also famous in China, and they are proficient in Japanese and Chinese, so they won't make too many mistakes."
Bai Gui said.
Now that the summer vacation is over, in addition to some students studying in Japan from wealthy families, many students studying in Japan have also begun to work part-time to make money. As the deputy director of preparatory courses for studying in Japan, Bai Gui naturally has to consider these students.
Translation is also quite profitable.
At least it's more profitable and decent than washing dishes.
"Mr. Bai, you're welcome. You are all the best among men. Since Mr. Bai requested it, the Commercial Press will naturally not refuse. The translation of the first volume of the Great Qin Empire will be done by Liu Risheng..."
"For other translation work, we will also try our best to consider students studying in Japan."
Manager Liao's eyes lit up.
Compared with the huge copyright fees, the cost of translating a book is only a small amount of money. It is not a big deal to agree to Bai Gui's request. When you go to China, hiring a Japanese translator may even be more expensive.
And as he just said, these students studying abroad are all among the best. They have complicated connections in the country. When they return to China in the future, their status will be high. It is necessary to make good friends with these students studying abroad with some small money...
Who translates is not a translator?!
…
Sent away Manager Liao.
Within a day or two, another printing office manager from Shanghai came to discuss cooperation.
It was also for the copyright matters of the Qin Empire.
These printing press managers all worked in the same circle. Manager Liao of the Commercial Press left and went to Japan. After a little inquiry, he could understand, so he hurriedly caught up to Tokyo.
Bai Gui invited them into his private house one by one to thank him, saying that he was grateful for his respect for Yunyun, and then tactfully told these printing office managers that his book had been signed by Manager Liao of the Commercial Press.
You are a guest at the door.
Not to mention that these managers came to him to beg him, but the connections behind these printing office managers were not small.
For example, Wang Mengzou, the manager of the Yadong Library that was later opened in Shanghai. Anyone who has watched "The Age of Awakening" knows that he was friends with Chen Zhongfu and others.
Wang Mengzou himself was also a scholar.
These people who are the managers of the printing press are all distinguished figures and should not be underestimated.
After hearing that they had been raped by Manager Liao, these printing office managers had no choice but to give up.
However, before leaving, I also told Bai Gui that if there is any big project in the future, don’t agree to it first, shop around before deciding which one to choose, and don’t make a hasty decision.
Bai Gui also nodded and promised that he would consider them in the future.
In fact, he also knew that the prices offered by the later printing houses might be higher than those of the Commercial Press, but the status of the Commercial Press was known at home and abroad, and it would undoubtedly be better for the first book to be printed here.
It will be beneficial to future development.
Just like when a college student signs a job for the first time, if he signs a job with a large factory, the starting point will be high. If it is an ordinary company, the salary may be higher, but the development prospects will undoubtedly be worse.
After sending away the managers of these printing offices.
Bai Gui finally breathed a sigh of relief when no one came to visit him for several days.
After he rested at home for a few days.
I rushed to Tokyo University without stopping and continued my research.
…
Professor Shiraishi is responsible for teaching Japanese history at No. 1 High School, and at Tokyo University, he is a professor specializing in teaching the cultural differences between Qing and Japan.
My daily study is Haoshouqiongjing.
Read a book, read a book, read a book.
The Classics Room of the Ministry of Culture and Literature.
"Mr. Bai is here. Let me introduce you. This is Mitsuko Yamada, who is applying for Tokyo University this year. He will be admitted in half a month. Like you, he will follow me to do research..."
"It's your senior sister..."
Professor Shiraishi was reading when he heard a noise at the door and saw Bai Gui coming in, so he stood up and introduced him.
Mitsuko Yamada on the side looked around, looking like he didn't recognize him.
The corner of Bai Gui's mouth twitched.
A few days ago, he followed Chen Zhen to practice the 72-way grapple, so he took a leave of absence from Professor Baishi.
That's the bad thing about doing research with a professor. Even though it's summer break, if there's nothing special to do, I won't be able to take any time off.
Then the manager of the printing press from Shanghai came over and stayed there for several days...
Time is tight.
Unexpectedly, Mitsuko Yamada caught him off guard while he was not paying attention, and he actually became a disciple of Professor Shiraishi at Tokyo University.
Although he came first, he is still a student of the first grade, and Mitsuko Yamada is the real student who entered the school, so he should be called senior...
"I've met Senior Photon."
Seeing Professor Shiraishi's scrutinizing eyes, Bai Gui was embarrassed to talk about his relationship with Yamada Mitsuko. Who knew if Professor Shiraishi knew Yamada Mitsuko's father, Yamada Mitsuo, then he would be embarrassed.
This is a private relationship and cannot be made public.
So he could only bite the bullet and say this. When the relationship gets closer in the future, it would be logical to change his name to Guangzi.
When you meet for the first time, if you don't pay attention to etiquette and respect, others will frown.
"Ah, how are you, Mr. Bai~"
Even though Yamada Mitsuko was well prepared, he blushed when he heard the voice of his senior. He forgot all about the reply that just came to his mind and could only say hello subconsciously.
"Now that you two have met, don't be embarrassed. If you have a chance to get along in the future, just read the book first."
Professor Shiraishi didn't doubt him. It's normal for girls to be shy. Nowadays, boys' schools and girls' schools are separated. When boys and girls meet for the first time in university, there are not a few people who make jokes.
Although Mitsuko Yamada had previously asked many universities and university professors to recommend the Qin Empire, it was impossible to visit them all...
"Well, thank you Professor Shiraishi."
Bai Gui nodded and took his seat.
Although Tokyo University also has a library, the books in the library are not as complete as the materials in the Classics Room of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. There are also some research data in various subjects of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, etc., such as archeology.
Archeology has always been considered a branch of history in China. For example, the collection room in the Zhou Dynasty was similar to the museum of later generations. The person who guarded the collection room was also the boss Laozi. By the Song Dynasty, epigraphy was developed, such as Li Qingzhao’s husband
Zhao Mingcheng specializes in this industry very deeply.
But in Western education, archeology belongs to anthropology and humanities...
At Tokyo University, it is also affiliated with the Ministry of Education.
