In the following days, Xu Zhi happily returned to Xiangjiang to deal with the matters Wu Jianye had told him, while Zhou Tao discussed with Wu Jianye in Shanghai the matters after going to Xiangjiang for a few days, and was also preparing to go home to report to his wife.
Go to Xiangjiang, and then go to Yanjing to withdraw money.
"Old Wu, do you think we should take Zhao Lei to play with us this time?" Zhou Tao asked.
"When you get to Yanjing, ask Zhao Lei. If he is willing to pay, then take him with you. If not, it doesn't matter!" Wu Jianye said.
Zhao Lei is now in charge of English tapes and peripheral products in Yanjing, and he is very responsible. Wu Jianye is also more at ease with him. Now that Wu Jianye is preparing to open up a second market, naturally he does not want to pull him down.
"Understood!" Zhou Tao nodded, then seemed hesitant to speak.
"If you have something to say, just say it and fart if you want it. When did you start acting like a bitch?"
"That old Wu, it's the same thing I told you before. In fact, Zhu Xia is quite good. You can't let her down. If this happens, you will be sentenced!" Zhou Tao couldn't help but said.
"Okay, I understand. You'd better take care of your wife's affairs and stop worrying about these things!" Wu Jianye kicked him and then said: "Get out of here, the train is coming!"
"Um!"
Watching Zhou Tao get on the train and leave, Wu Jianye also left with a cigarette in his mouth.
A new issue of "Shanghai Literature" has been published, and many literary and artistic young people have flocked to the post office to buy it.
"Look, a new novel is out today!"
"Where is it? What's the name of the book?"
""Alive"! This name is interesting. What kind of name is it?"
"Not only is the name interesting, look at the author who also chose an interesting pen name, Kun!"
"It seems like this is a new author!"
"Laugh as you cry, and live with death. This beginning is interesting!"
In this way, the first novel written by Wu Jianye came out in this era. In this era, there were very few entertainment activities and many books were unavailable. Therefore, literary magazines such as "Shanghai Literature" also became an important
It is the first choice for young literary and artistic young people, and the novels published on it, especially the novels by a newcomer, naturally attracted many people to start reading with scrutiny.
It is in such a situation.
The tragedy of Fugui's life has also begun to take root in the hearts of these people. Since only the first part was published, Fugui is now regarded in the hearts of many people as an extremely hateful prodigal son who has such a good wife and doesn't even know it.
cherish.......
"Have you watched "Alive"?"
"Look, that rich man is so abominable that he lost all his family property to that Long Er!"
"I would say that Long Er is disgusting. He actually set up a trap to defraud the rich."
"Hey, I just want to see what happens next. Fugui lost all his family property. What will happen to his family?"
As the reputation of "To Live" slowly fermented, first of all, the entire literary circle in Shanghai and Shanghai was discussing the novel "To Live". At the same time, the author Kun also made everyone curious about who the old writer wrote it.
Been hotly debated.
The writing style of "To Live" is simple and unpretentious, giving everyone who reads it a sense of the weight of the times. No one would have thought that such a novel could be written by a young man.
Wu Jianye is happy and relaxed. It is precisely maintaining such a mysterious feeling that makes the discussion of "Alive" more heated, and it is also a good publicity for "Alive".
After all, there is no such thing as publicity yet. It depends entirely on word-of-mouth fermentation to drive the popularity of a novel.
Just when everyone was discussing the novel "Alive", Wu Jianye returned to his old life, following the crew members every day to experience life.
He originally thought that this kind of life would last until the launch of "Big and Small", but the arrival of Linda changed his slightly peaceful life again.
"You're finally here!" When Wu Jianye looked at the smiling Linda standing in front of him, he knew that the debt collector was coming.
"You don't seem to welcome my arrival!" Linda looked at Wu Jianye with a meaningful smile.
"Do you think I will welcome you? Tell me, how much do you want?" Wu Jianye said simply.
Since this matter cannot be avoided, why not just open it up and say that the worst possible outcome is to lose money!
"You want money? No, no, no, Wu, you misunderstood. I didn't come here to ask for money. Why don't we all forget about the previous incident!" Linda smiled.
Linda said she didn't care about that matter, which did not make Wu Jianye happy. As the saying goes, if nothing happens, he will not go to the Three Treasures Palace. There is also a saying that the weasel has no good intentions when paying New Year greetings to the chicken.
Linda said so generously that she didn't care about that matter, but she came to see her again. Obviously she had other matters, and this matter was likely to be a headache for Wu Jianye to lose money.
"Then what are you here for?"
"I want to know if you wrote "Alive"?" Linda's eyes revealed a magical color.
Wu Jianye didn't expect Linda to ask about this matter: "Yes, but, by the way, can you understand Chinese characters?"
Linda smiled and said: "I specially found a translator, and he read the first part of the book published in "Shanghai Literature" to me word for word!"
"Then you are?"
Linda: "It's like this. Although that person translated for me, I always felt that the person's translation was not good enough. I know Wu, your English is very good, so I came to see you!"
Wu Jianye was stunned: "You mean you want me to translate for you?"
Linda nodded and said: "Yes, I watched the beginning of "Alive". I like it very much. I also particularly want to know what Fugui's life will be like in the future."
"No time!" Wu Jianye refused directly: "Why don't we talk about compensation?"
Wu Jianye really didn't want to translate it for her. For the novel "Alive", Wu Jianye read the Chinese version. If it was translated into English, Wu Jianye didn't know if he could keep the original charm.
The most important thing is that Wu Jianye has never done any translation work, and he is really unsure. If he is asked to copy another English novel in his memory, that will be no problem, but if he is to translate "Alive", then forget it.
"Oh, I heard that fraud is a very serious crime in China. If the person who defrauded is a foreign friend, how many years will the sentence be?" Linda said seemingly unintentionally.
"Do you know anyone from the publishing house in America?" Wu Jianye suddenly asked. He didn't want to be led by Linda.
"Of course I do. If you can translate this novel, it won't be a problem for me to find a publishing house for you in the United States!" Linda said confidently.
"It is impossible to translate "To Live"!" Wu Jianye said firmly. Even if novels like "To Live" are translated into English, their sales in the United States will not be very good. His main
The market is still in Europe.
"But I do have an English novel here, would you like to read it?"
