"You still have to attend the cultural banquet of Asahi Society..."
"Although I am now preparing to study in Amei's country, I cannot stay out of the literary world for a long time, otherwise my reputation will inevitably decline over time."
Bai Guixin thought.
He spread out the plain paper and began to write a reply.
He has now completed two masterpieces, "Guns, Germs, and Steel" and "The Chrysanthemum and the Knife." No one who has been forgotten in the Japanese literary world will forget Bai Meihe.
But... there is a difference between being famous and being famous, and there is a difference between being heard and being familiar.
Reputation also needs to be created and socialized.
One thing is that the work is strong enough, but there must also be necessary publicity.
A very simple truth is that although King Luo Bin's "Goose Goose" is well written, this poem can only be regarded as good and has not reached its peak. However, because it was written by King Luo Bin, one of the Four Great Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty, it is recorded as a famous poem.
In the annals of history.
Van Gogh's paintings can only sell for high prices after his death.
Although he will not deliberately promote his reputation, if he has time for a cultural banquet like the Asahi Society, it is better to participate than not.
It took me until noon to write this reply.
There were replies not only to Ryuko Tanabe, but also to other people, such as editor-in-chief Nagano, Saburo Fujiwara and others. Well, yes, Saburo Fujiwara got along well with Hakuki at Tokyo University, and the two had long since settled their differences.
In the archery competition and the shooting competition, the two of them formed a team to compete. Over time, Saburo Fujiwara actually became Bai Gui's good friend in Japan.
After a hasty meal.
Bai Gui got on the rickshaw and headed to Dongda Hongo Campus.
This time Bai Xiuzhu did not follow.
He was meeting Professor Baishi, so it was really inappropriate for Bai Xiuzhu to come with him.
About a quarter of an hour later.
He met Professor Shiraishi in his office.
"You want to study in Kenya, my sister, although it is beyond my expectation, but it is also a good thing. Recently, there have been frequent disputes among European countries. France and Germany are because of Lorraine and Alsace, and Rakshasa and Austria-Hungary are because of the Balkans...
…”
"Fortunately, you replied to me in advance. I have recently noticed a lot of invitation letters from universities in Kenya. In the past few months, I also sent letters to major universities in Kenya to apply for quotas..."
After Professor Shiraishi accepted the souvenir, he wiped his glasses and said slowly.
Mitsuko Yamada on the side hesitated to speak.
She has been with Bai Gui and Bai Xiuzhu these days, but she knows part of the reason why Bai Gui studied in Amei Ken country. It was not because Bai Gui married Bai Xiuzhu, and they just happened to go to Amei Ken country to visit Bai Xiuzhu's parents.
"Well, Mr. Shiraishi, do you have any recommended universities?"
Bai Gui thanked him and then asked.
The reason why he has been hesitant to decide on a school to study abroad is because Professor Shiraishi can bring him more resources by relying on Tokyo University, and he will have more choices in schools.
"You are in the Department of Liberal Arts and the Department of History. Harvard University's ancient history and East Asian history are second to none. There is also Yale University. Yale University has always taught history courses..."
"Columbia University, that's fine too..."
"You are quite famous now, and my sister and I are willing to open the door for you to study for a Ph.D."
Professor Shiraishi smiled.
Although the threshold for studying abroad in these prestigious schools is not low, it also depends on who you are interested in.
"Yale University and Harvard University, these two institutions have sent me invitation letters..."
"I didn't know which one to choose at the moment."
Bai Gui sighed.
Harvard is the first university in Kenya, and Yale is the third university in Kenya. Both institutions have a history of three to four hundred years, and both are among the best in terms of rankings.
"Bai Jun, there is no need to worry for now. I will get you the invitation letters from these colleges later."
"You go home and think about it yourself."
When Professor Shiraishi saw this, he shook his head and smiled.
Although Bai Gui seems a bit indecisive, when it comes to colleges for further studies, ordinary people don't have a choice, so he seems decisive. Bai Gui has too many choices, so it is really difficult to decide on one.
"Mr. Shiraishi is right."
"It's still too early for my sister to be reported as a graduate student in Kenya."
Bai Gui nodded.
Soon, he had a briefcase in his hand, which contained invitation letters from various colleges and universities.
It is not difficult for celebrities to go to prestigious schools for further studies.
Ordinary people don't become famous until they graduate from school. But he already became famous when he was still studying at No. 1 High School and Dongda University. So which school he chooses to study after graduation has long been known.
attracted the attention of many people...
As for the book "Guns and Guns", even the principal of the church such as Maimed Girls' School can notice it, let alone the major colleges and universities in Ameiken.
Almost all universities wanted to give him an offer.
"I won't disturb you and Guangzi anymore."
"You have been apart for so long."
"Be careful."
Professor Baishi glanced at Bai Gui, stood up and left, walked to the door, and said meaningfully.
Last year, when Shiro Gui and Yamada Mitsuko left his office, it was a bit messy. He still remembered this.
But he was happy to see this happen.
They are all his students.
With a bang, the office door closed.
Only Hakuki and Mitsuko Yamada are left.
The two of them were silent for a long time.
It was obvious that both of them had a lot to say, but they didn't know how to say it.
"Photon."
"Which institution do you plan to study in? Which institution has sent you an invitation letter?"
Bai Gui pondered for a while and then said.
The reason why he hesitated in choosing a college was partly due to Mitsuko Yamada.
He didn't know which college Mitsuko Yamada planned to go to.
"Bai Jun..., whichever college you want to go to, I will go to that college."
Yamada Mitsuko raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Gui, then quickly lowered his head and looked at his toes.
Eyes red.
Although she is not like Bai Gui, many colleges and universities have sent her invitation letters.
But which school she wants to go to is not difficult.
Dongda has a certain quota.
"this……"
Bai Gui sighed, the choice fell into his hands again.
"Xiuzhu's parents run a business in New York State, and Yale University is in Connecticut, which is relatively close to New York State."
"Maybe... Columbia University is also good, it's also in New York state."
"But I want to see what you mean."
He raised his eyebrows and said.
"Yale University? Columbia University?"
Mitsuko Yamada was stunned, not knowing which one to choose.
"Then Yale."
Bai Gui saw Yamada Mitsuko's expression and said.
Yale University is undoubtedly better than Columbia University.
"I'm going home to find my dad..."
"Ask him to help me plan to study at Yale University."
