The English version is not sold uniformly, but is now sold in the United States, and then waits for other English versions to be released in the UK.
So now this book is only available in the United States.
There are many YouTube uploaders who can introduce foreign cultures, and Parker is one of them.
He usually likes to share the culture and customs of other countries in his videos, which is not one-sided. For example, he will not only introduce the culture of other countries, but also compare the local culture of the United States, because this can attract people.
More fans from other countries.
Some time ago, he also shared a video about pz, a writer he likes recently. What he didn't expect was that his video actually attracted the attention of many netizens from China.
To this end, he made two more identical videos, and the results were very good.
This time, he decided to play a big game, that is, to conduct a live broadcast and read online.
Considering that there are many Chinese fans, he specially found a Chinese friend to help translate.
In fact, he can speak Chinese himself, but his level is really not up to par.
When the bookstore opened in the morning, he hurriedly bought a copy of "The Snowman" and came back, then opened the live broadcast room.
"Hi, everyone, I'm Parker, good morning everyone."
He spoke in English, but the friend next to him quickly translated it into Chinese.
[What is Parker doing live today? What is the person next to him saying? I can’t understand it at all. (English barrage)] (Actually, the author’s English level is very high, but in order not to cause reading difficulties for you, I decided to use Chinese
Instead, manually funny)
[Niubi, it even comes with a Chinese translation. I just wondered what I should do if I couldn’t understand it. 】
[The hearing of the mixed oil pipe upstairs is not good.]
[Can anyone tell me what these Chinese characters on the barrage mean? (English barrage)]
[The translator of the barrage is here. The two barrage just now said that Parker is so handsome. (English barrage)]
Parker also saw the Chinese barrage and asked the Huaxia classmate next to him, "What is the barrage saying?"
Classmate Hua Xia said, "It's nothing, they say you are handsome."
Parker laughed and said, "Friends in China are very friendly."
The Huaxia classmate smiled and said to the audience in Chinese, "Parker said you are all very good."
[Holy shit, there’s something wrong with the translation. Do you think we can’t understand English? 】
[I’m no longer a human being. Little cute Parker has been deceived and she doesn’t know yet.]
Parker saw many Chinese barrages and asked curiously, "What did they say again?"
The translator said, "I'd better say you are handsome, and say you are particularly handsome today."
"Thank you, thank you." Parker thanked him quickly, and then said to the translator, "Li, can you teach me some words of thanks?"
The translator smiled and said, "Okay, you learn from me - Happy New Year, big brother and big sister."
"Happy New Year to the big guy."
"Yes, that's very standard."
"Happy new year to the big guys, happy new year to the big guys." Parker said twice to the audience.
[This translation is so bad that it ruined Parker's life.]
【666666】
[Didn’t I say that I wanted to watch "The Snowman" today? 】
【Yes, have you bought the book?】
"They asked you if you bought the book?" The translator did not act weird this time, but translated the barrage question to Parker.
Parker quickly took out "The Snowman" and said: "I have bought the book. I will start reading it now. It may take a while while reading, and it may also be very boring. I hope you don't mind."
【Don’t mind, don’t mind, we just like to watch you read.】
【Have you bought the pants?】
【Can I take photos when changing my pants?】
"Okay, I'm going to study now."
After he finished speaking, he really opened the book and started reading without saying a word.
The translator also relaxed at this time and started chatting with the barrage in a low voice in Chinese, "I said you are quite bored, so many people come to see him study."
【Not boring, not boring, we just want to see how scared he is.】
[Excuse me, little brother, what are you talking about? Can you tell us in English? (English barrage)]
The translator said in English again, "I mean Parker needs to be quiet when he is studying, so I can only chat with you in a low voice. Thank you for your support of Parker."
…
"The Snowman" is very long, and even if you read it quickly, it will take at least four or five hours.
Parker watched with fascination. Although his expression changed, he said nothing during the whole process. Fortunately, there was a funny translator next to him who kept interacting with the barrage in bilingual voices in a low voice.
Sometimes, Parker may have seen some scary plots, so his expression is a little scared, and then there will be more barrages immediately.
[Translation brother, hurry up and find your pants.]
[What will happen if you tap him on the shoulder at this time?]
【Is that the devil upstairs?】
"Parker, this kid, has always been very immersed in reading. I guess if I tap him on the shoulder, he will fight for my life." The translator said with a smile.
After more than five hours, Parker finally closed the book, but he did not immediately look at the camera to interact with the audience. Instead, he sat blankly, as if he still hadn't recovered.
[It’s broken, cute little Parker is so scared.]
[Check to see if your pants are wet.]
【……】
"Hi, Parker, are you okay?" The translator waved his hand in front of Parker.
Parker finally came to his senses and murmured, "It's so perverted."
Then he shrank and asked the translator, "Li, have you turned on the air conditioner? Why is it so cold?"
…
After the first batch of American readers read the novel, there were more and more comments about "The Snowman" on the Internet.
Just like in China, readers in the United States are also amazed by the horror of pz's new book.
No wonder someone said before that they should prepare some pairs of pants!
[I don’t know why, but I always feel like someone is staring at me while I’m reading this book. Now I’ve run to Times Square, and seeing so many people, I feel much better.]
[Indeed, when I was in the bookstore just now, the lady sitting next to me didn’t dare to look at half of it. Although there were so many people in the bookstore, she was already frightened.]
[I think it’s okay, but I think the murderer in it is a bit perverted. 】
[Don’t say that, I haven’t read it yet. I just bought the book and I don’t dare to read it.]
[Look, although it’s scary, it’s also exciting.]
…
"Dad, do you think Harry Potter's glasses look like this?"
The next morning, Zhang Zhong was drinking tea in the living room when Peng Peng suddenly ran over with a painting in his arms. Zhang Zhong looked at the painting and saw a little boy wearing a pair of big glasses and Harry Potter.
It has a little bit of a resemblance to it, but it needs to look a bit more elegant.
Zhang Zhong didn't expect that Pengpeng had already started to attack Harry Potter. He smiled and said, "Why do you want to draw Harry Potter?"
Pengpeng said, "Because Liu Minya wants to listen to Harry Potter, but I can't tell, so I can only draw it for her to see."
