When Li Qing returned home with the golden retriever puppy, Han Han had just finished making breakfast. When he turned around, he saw Li Qing standing in the yard staring at a puppy.
She said in surprise: "Whose dog is this...?"
"Picked it up on the road." Li Qing squatted down and looked at the golden retriever puppy in front of him carefully.
According to the little girl, this golden retriever is about 50 days old. A puppy at this age is equivalent to a human being between two and three years old, and can basically distinguish between good and bad things.
Therefore, although Li Qing did not speak, the little golden retriever still happily circled around Li Qing's legs and rubbed his head against Li Qing's ankles from time to time.
The pedigree of this golden retriever puppy is undoubtedly a very pure breed. It has a broad skull and protruding bones at the back of the head. Its eyes are brown, its golden fur is wavy, and its tail is parallel to the back and long.
Full of hair.
"Picked it up?"
Han Han took off his cooking gloves, squatted down, and said happily: "Do you want to keep it? Then keep it. I will see a pet doctor to check his body in the next two days."
Han Han seemed to like this golden retriever puppy very much. The latter obviously didn't dislike the mistress either. His tongue was hanging out and he was panting, and his tail was wagging very happily.
However, Li Qing frowned: "Are you sure you want to keep it? I don't have that much time to take care of it. You also have to prepare for the graduation exam..."
"Let Wang Ma take care of it first." Han Han said with a smile.
Li Qing nodded, then handed the dog leash to Han Han, then took off his sportswear and walked into the bathroom to rinse.
While eating breakfast, Han Han said: "Does the dog have a name?"
"It seems to be called Xiao Ha. If you don't think it sounds good, just pick another one." Li Qing said with a smile.
Han Han hummed and said, "Would you like to pick one?"
Li Qing took a bite of the toast, glanced at the golden retriever puppy at his feet, looking at him eagerly, and said: "Light bulb."
"What?" Han Han asked doubtfully.
"It's called a light bulb." Li Qing chewed the bread and hummed, "Light bulb."
Han Han reacted and burst into laughter. She picked up a dog bowl filled with oatmeal, placed it in front of the puppy, and said with a smile: "Puppy, you will call me Bulb from now on, you know?"
?”
The little golden retriever was obviously very hungry. As soon as the dog bowl was placed on the ground, he started to lick and hum.
Li Qing stared at the light bulb and suddenly said, "Is it possible to train it?"
"Train it?" Han Han thought for a while and said: "For some simple commands, it should be ok. I think it is quite spiritual, but for some more difficult commands, it may require professional training.
, For example, those guide dogs can only work officially after being trained by special personnel..."
Li Qing nodded. When he was squatting on the ground and staring at the light bulb, he had been thinking about whether he could train this little golden retriever into a star dog.
In his previous life, there were many movie stories about dogs, and the one that Li Qing remembers the most is "The Story of Hachiko".
In the era of overflowing literary and artistic films, "The Story of Hachiko" was a sudden rise. It successfully moved hundreds of millions of viewers and left a deep impression on countless people. Even the place where the story originated has become a world-class attraction that movie fans rush to visit.
.
In addition, in many well-known movies such as "I Am Legend" and "Operation Mekong", the existence of dogs has also added a lot of color to these movies. If Bulb can be trained to become a star dog, then filming in the future
Movies about dogs can get twice the result with half the effort!
However, this was not something that could be done in the blink of an eye, so Li Qing put this thought aside for the time being.
Today, he is leaving for the UK to prepare for a book signing.
The time difference in China is seven hours ahead of the UK. He must arrive in London at ten o'clock tomorrow morning to hold a book signing. This was communicated to Barry early in the morning.
Therefore, after breakfast, Pei Sitao drove to pick up Li Qing and take him to the airport. In addition to Pei Sitao and Wei Haihai, there were also Liu Qin, Xue Yan, and Yu Zhenzhen.
This was Li Qing's fixed small team, not accompanied by a large number of bodyguards or ten assistants. It was just a simple group of six people. After a short rest, they boarded the plane to London in a low-key manner.
Li Qing and others officially took off at twelve o'clock at noon. Due to the time difference, they arrived in Lunda at three o'clock in the afternoon, flying for nearly eleven hours.
When we arrived at London International Airport, the local sky was still shining brightly. There were six or seven people in the greeting team of Bloomsbury Publishing House. The leader was Barry, the publisher's editor-in-chief, who had had several contacts with Li Qing.
Barry hugged Li Qing warmly, "Li, welcome to London."
Li Qing reluctantly kept a smile, and after Barry's introduction, he shook hands with several managers and editors of the publishing house, and immediately, surrounded by talents, began to settle into the hotel arranged by the publishing house.
Along the way, Barry excitedly reported to Li Qing about tomorrow morning's book signing: "Li, in Foyle's Bookstore, the number of people who have made reservations to purchase "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" has exceeded eight.
Thousands of people! And the number is still growing. It is expected that by tomorrow, the number of readers coming to the book signing will exceed 10,000! This is a great feast in the literary world!"
Foyle's Books is the UK's largest bookstore chain.
The bookstore has the most extensive catalog of books in the UK, including genuine books from all over the world. A seven-story building is filled with densely packed books to satisfy the preferences of bookworms from all over the world.
Those who can hold book signings at Foyle's Bookstore are all well-known writers from the UK and even the world. There have been winners of the Nobel Prize for Literature who have personally come here to hold book signings.
In history, only one Japanese writer among Asians was lucky enough to be invited to sign books here.
Li Qing can be said to be the first writer from China among the many writers who have held book signings in Foyle's Bookstore.
Moreover, the number of pre-sales alone is nearly 10,000!
What is this concept?
Even the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature that year could barely reach this pre-sale number for the autograph session.
For example, the famous Japanese writer from a few years ago only had more than 2,000 people signing the book!
This is enough to show how popular the phenomenal novel "Harry Potter" is in the UK!
To this day, fans from all over the world still come to King's Road Cross Station in London with excitement to admire Platform Nine and Three-Quarters in the book.
Nowadays, many media at home and abroad have long hailed this place as a “Pilgrimage Place for Ham fans”! 19
