Chapter 315: What did you do in England? !
The scene of a press conference in Neon——
“This year we have opened more than ten special schools across the country, and the care for special groups reflects the overall quality of a country.” Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports A spokesman for the Ministry of Science and Technology said, "Recently, Chinese writer Fururo has published new works about special groups of people. This proves that the artistic creation rights of neighboring countries have paid attention to this field, and our own cultural creators need to continue to work hard!"
< br>The フォロー mentioned by the spokesperson is not the translation of Gu Lu’s Japanese name at all.
Friends who often study Japanese in bed morning and night know that Neon will force the English pronunciation to correspond to Katakana. The pronunciation of フォロー is similar. Because the spokesperson standing on the stage only heard Gu Lu's name when he passed by just now.
Mentioning this sentence is just to change the subject due to high popularity.
It can be said that the bald forehead is a flash of inspiration from the old brain.
Unfortunately, the sharp-eyed reporters in suits and ties did not buy it.
"Will the official launch an investigation into the Takagi incident?" the reporter asked.
Takagi is a person’s name. This incident broke out in the news three days ago. An intellectually disabled girl was sexually assaulted and abused by an “excellent teacher” in a special school.
The girl's language skills are limited and she cannot fully tell her parents. After many twists and turns, the girl's parents found out, and after investigation, almost all disabled girls in the class had been sexually assaulted by Takagi.
Here comes the key point, parents find the school. The school actually protected this beast and sent Takagi out - the angry parents posted the entire incident to the Internet.
Causing heated discussion on the Internet! News media also followed up with reports, criticizing the official's negligence in the review and management of special schools.
The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, the official department that manages the school, held a small press conference, but obviously the officials did not take it seriously, so the one who came to bow, oh no, the one who came to speak was not the minister.
“Regarding this matter, our Faculty Office has issued a severe warning to the school involved for rectification.” The spokesperson responded lightly.
Everyone at the scene was not fooled. The Yomiuri Shimbun reporter raised his hand and asked, "Is it just rectification? Is there no investigation or punishment by the faculty?"
"We have no way to investigate this matter. As a The spokesperson of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology said, "I sincerely apologize for this incident." The spokesperson's apology was standard, "It made the public feel worried and guilty... It was our Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology that did not do a good job in certain incidents."
The spokesperson’s words make it clear that the relevant departments want to pass the blame.
What a familiar handling situation!
The next day's Yomiuri Shimbun headline even read, "The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology said: Care for special groups reflects the overall quality of a country."
Subtitle: "Flowers for Algernon"? It's a pity that he is less than six feet tall.
The 褌 is a ふんどし, something worn during naked festivals, while the six-foot 褌 is an ordinary style. The Yomiuri Shimbun means that the fig leaf is not big enough to cover the scandal.
King Gulu, who was far away in the foggy city, never expected that "Flowers for Algernon" would one day make public news.
Side reaction, books conquered the city in Neon and gained quite a reputation. Otherwise, the spokesperson would not suddenly mention this book when changing the topic.
130,000 pieces sold on the first day!
Only 20,000 more copies were sold than "The Prince of That Time". but! The last book was promoted by Kenji Miyazawa.
This book has also switched from fairy tales to science fiction. The theme has changed so much. It must be gratifying to be able to achieve such a good result.
Thanks to Lu Fanhui's continuous output, Gu Lu has gone from "a genius who caused turmoil among 30 million people" to "a genius who can only be born with a population of one billion". This title has never been seen in Neon. Forgotten.
Coupled with the gambling-style publicity resources of Bai Tongsha Vice President Sato, multiple factors formed an excellent start.
On the second day, the sales volume of 120,000 pieces was due to the fermentation of word-of-mouth. It sold 250,000 pieces in two days. It has been a long time since the physical publishing industry has been so brilliant.
The promising King Guru has just finished writing "London: What I See" in the room and submitted it to Youth Digest.
Gu Lu did what he said, and he was the one who started the anti-Yin Lin banner.
I didn’t mourn for Yilin for a moment, and the next person to appear was Bilibili.
Currently, I have interviewed Zhou Lin, Li Guyuan, and Lu Ping, and what I am currently uploading is the strongman from the next class who participated in the Physics Olympiad.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m more relaxed as an up owner, or if I’m trying to make a splash and gain attention. The King’s interview series always contains many prophetic words.
Each issue can get more than 200,000 clicks, and if you put in a lot of coins, it can get several thousand. What is more novel is that Gu Lu’s video collection data is particularly large.
Relatively good data. After all, the update frequency of King Gu Lu is very slow. Fortunately, the current Bilibili up owners have not rolled up.
Unlike online articles, they have been rolled up in one or two years. Adding three spoons to a certain sugar ushered in the era of daily updates, and blood red made the Ku Klux Klan a derogatory term.
Fortunately, the Internet writers later corrected the chaos, and the 3K party became a compliment, because 2k appeared...
Gu Lu basically stopped reading Internet articles after time travel, which is a bit It means deliberately separating yourself from your previous life.
The sunlight outside the window turned into moonlight. In the empty room, Gu Lu stopped typing on the keyboard and moved his body. His joints made a crackling sound. This was the result of keeping one movement for a long time.
"November, the New Year is coming in a blink of an eye. I don't know where I can rank in the 2013 Rich List of Writers." Gu Lu was thinking about this.
The sales of "Flatland" and "Flowers for Algernon" are very optimistic. The former even accounts for more than half of the market sales of popular science works as a book.
The requirements are not high, just have the top three!
In addition, the year that crosses the New Calendar is our Chinese New Year’s Eve. Well, Gu Lu had no expectations for the Chinese New Year. Mainly thinking about what book to publish first next year.
Currently, the popular science works "Mr. Toad Goes to a Psychologist" and "The Devotion of Suspect X" are ready for release.
Oh yes! Gu Lu took out Mr. Toad before he could look at it.
With an idea in mind, Gu Lu looked out the window. The lights of thousands of houses were like fireflies in the dark night. He stared at them in a daze for a while.
“In the dead of night, it’s a good time to do something quietly.”
Gu Lu lowered his head and was planning something...
Another day.
Some people work hard to survive, and some people work hard to live, but there are still very few people who can live.
Look at the sky, which is covered with dark clouds, as if the sky is about to collapse. In fairy tales, such weather is often the beginning of a decisive battle.
In reality, people rush to hurry up, and attendance deductions are more serious than the weather.
Shi Feng, deputy editor-in-chief of Global Times, received news from an old friend about Gu Lu.
They say they are old friends, but they are actually connections made during a party school study.
So if helping is a win-win situation, then I will definitely help.
"Can domestic fairy tale writers still be popular in the UK?" Shi Feng frowned, the fake news was too fake.
"Andersen's Fairy Tales", "Grimm's Fairy Tales", "One Thousand and One Nights", "Pinocchio" and other works. When he was a child, the market was flooded with European and American works.
It is only since the 1990s that domestically produced fairy tales have gradually gained momentum. Even so, Shi Feng still believes that the field of fairy tale novels is still far behind developed countries.
"Oh, by the way, The Little Prince is written by Gu Lu. "The Little Prince" was only released in Asia at most. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to go overseas?" Shi Feng thought of this and frowned even more.
People's outlook on life comes from the shaping of the general environment. People born in the 1960s have experienced the huge gap between the development of the country and the West in the first half of their lives.
We cannot simply criticize Shi Feng for being unpatriotic. After all, deep-rooted ideas are difficult to change. Like an old man who has experienced famine times, he attaches great importance to food and cannot tolerate any waste.
Shi Feng assigned the work to his editor Xiao Wu, and he was basically sure that it was the student Gu Lu who was bragging in front of the principal. It’s true, how can you believe everything the students say without doing some research!
There is an arrangement, and there is an explanation when asked by "old friends".
"Principal Chang can really cause trouble for others." Shi Feng sighed.
To say that the current interoperability of news at home and abroad is really poor, think about future generations. As soon as there is any trouble, everything in the country will be known.
Xiao Wu is an honest person. This honest person has no derogatory meaning. In this era, the word has not been polluted.
Get the leadership task and start working immediately. We all know that it is illegal to use a ladder to climb over a wall, but Global Daily is an international portal provided by the telecommunications network, so it must be legal and compliant.
“If Gu Lu is really famous abroad, we at the Global Times should indeed report it.” Xiao Wu muttered. He was born in the 1980s and his hair was a little bald due to long-term overtime work.
Compared with Xiao Xue, now deputy editor-in-chief Xue works overtime intensively every day, and his hair is still black and thick.
It seems that you also need talent to roll, and those with high energy have a greater chance of winning.
Log in to the BBC official website, which is also one of the most visited websites in the UK and the undisputed largest portal.
No need to wait for Xiao Wu to search for keywords, he saw a familiar figure in the wheel picture...
Xiao Wu was assigned to work early in the morning, and Gu Lu was dancing early in the morning Exercise between classes. "I feel so sad every time this happens. It's literally hard to get through. When will this stupid thing end!"
Gu Lu heard someone say behind him, and he knew who said it without looking back.
Because Ma Xuanyou, Lu Ping, Tian Xiao, Dou Ke, Zeng Jie, etc. all complain. The above are all male students, but what about the female students? Female classmates will gossip (whisper insults) in private.
Why are the students’ reactions so great? After the recess exercise, the radio changed the music. The whole school could not disperse and had to sing the school song again.
“The green Gele Mountain, the mighty Jialing River, our school, our school is in the middle of this beautiful landscape...”
"Don't just open your mouth, sing out!" Teacher Gao, the head teacher, was supervising.
Teacher Gao is also very helpless. If any class performs poorly in the tasks assigned by the school leaders, it will be criticized by the whole school.
The school song of No. 8 Middle School in Wudu, regardless of the melody, is very embarrassing when it sings "We are innocent and lively, we are enterprising and forward".
Finally, the students returned to the classroom in an orderly manner until the song ended.
“This is for you.” As soon as she returned to her seat, Qi Caiwei handed over a gift box.
What stuff? Gu Lu subconsciously took the small box, not to mention it was quite exquisite.
"Return gift. You brought me a souvenir when you went to London. I will definitely prepare a return gift." Qi Caiwei said.
Thoughly, Gu Lu weighed it gently. The box was as big as a palm, and it was of decent weight. He couldn't guess what it was.
Gu Lu was in London, and the souvenir he brought to Qi Caiwei was a notebook. It's just that the decorative value of this notebook is greater than its practical value. Each page has a different background painting. The images are musical notes, and the notes are not randomly arranged. They are all famous songs by British composer Vaughan Williams.
Qi Caiwei liked the gift very much.
"Can I open it here?" Gu Lu asked for advice.
“It’s given to you, it’s you, you are free to open it whenever you want.” Qi Caiwei responded.
Opening the package, I found that there were several exquisite toy swords inside.
In the past, at the primary school stall, there must have been toy swords worth 50 cents, half the length of a pencil.
The toy sword CC gave in return was exquisitely made and worth at least twenty or thirty.
"Didn't you say before that you collected the seven or eight swords from "The Legend of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit"?" Qi Caiwei stared at Gu Lu as she spoke. She was eager to know the other person's feedback after receiving the gift.
“These five small toys are genuine toys produced by this cartoon. However, because there were so few, I only received five.” Qi Caiwei explained.
To be honest, Gu Lu couldn't remember when he said it, but he remembered that there were indeed these small toys in the original cookie box.
"Do you like it?" Qi Caiwei became nervous when she saw that the other party didn't respond for a long time, and asked again, "Don't you like it?"
"No, it's such a surprise." Gu Lu said, " I just didn’t expect that “The Legend of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit” had genuine peripherals.”
Hearing this, Qi Caiwei smiled, but she felt that her smile was a bit silly.
“It’s not considered peripherals. Because Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit was produced by Hongmeng Cartoon. At that time, Hongmeng did come up with genuine peripherals and placed orders with the factory.” Qi Caiwei said, “But then the capital chain suddenly The cooperation was terminated. The batch of samples were used as souvenirs and were never sold. No wonder Gu Lu had never seen any toys on sale.
"As long as you like it, I will definitely work hard for the other two missing swords, the Ice Soul Sword and the Tornado Sword." Qi Caiwei said.
“No, no, no, no, the lack of them proves that they are very popular and inconvenient to collect.” Gu Lu said.
"It's quite difficult, but it must be hard to collect two things if you are short of two." Qi Caiwei snapped her fingers, "Don't worry, leave it to me, it must be perfect."
Seeing that his deskmate was so motivated, Gu Lu didn't pour cold water on him, and nodded to express his expectation.
He was also thinking, he didn’t remember that CC was a perfectionist!
Gu Lu thought about going home and leaving it alone, CC gave him some thoughts. If you think about it with your toes, you will know that the only second-hand trading website now is Kongfuzi.com. You must know that Kongfuzi.com sells second-hand books and does not involve toys and other such things at all. Qi Caiwei must have put in a lot of effort to find it.
Two hours had passed with one extra lesson between classes, and Xiao Wu, who was in Sijiu City, knocked on Editor Shi Feng’s door.
He has completed the work assigned by the leader.
"Please come in." Shi Feng raised his head, saw the person coming, and said, "The investigation was completed so quickly?"
"Is it confirmed to be false news so quickly?" Shi Feng was reasonable. Make speculations.
"The news is not false," Xiao Wu said, ""The Little Prince" has sold 80,000 copies in the UK. It has only been on sale for about two weeks, and it was still third on the Nielsen list last week."
"The reason why it is so fast is that Gu Lu is so famous in the UK that there is no need to collect it. You can see Gu Lu's news by just entering the BBC official website and Mail.Online." Xiao Wu explained why he was so fast. Be clear, otherwise it will be miserable if the leader thinks you are not serious about your work.
A fantasy, a fantasy!
Nielsen Weekly Ranking No. 3.
80,000 sold in less than two weeks.
BBC official website and Mail.Online are full of news.
This joke is not funny at all!
The expression on Shi Feng's face was, you're fucking kidding me.
"I have sorted out the specific information and sent it to the editor-in-chief's email address." Xiao Wu said.
That’s right, facts speak louder than words.
"Then you go out first. I will come back to you if something happens." Shi Feng sent Xiao Wu away.
Open the information sent by Xiao Wu in the email.
There are traces of data to follow. The key is not only that "The Little Prince" is famous overseas, but also that Gu Lu is causing chaos in London.
"The revenge of the genius writer Gu Lu, "The Shadow of Weymouth"" - The Guardian
"Today I got to know Weymouth again, from Gu Lu's novel" - —Mirror
“Gu Lu proved his genius with his counterattack! So far, this newspaper has not interviewed Sun reporter Kane.” —Daily Mail
That’s right, when Yao Xiaoju quickly translated the work and submitted it to the "Daily Express". The articles in the Express were short and interesting, without complicated words, very easy to understand, and the readers were the British middle and lower class.
Under this situation, Express was keenly aware of the heated nature of the matter and immediately jumped in to make arrangements.
This is also the reason why "Shadows of Weymouth" was able to appear in front of the British people so quickly.
Now the British newspaper camp is divided into two categories.
Relatively high-end newspapers, led by the Guardian, still exclude and criticize Gu Lu.
But readers like the "Daily Express" were relatively low-income people, so they expressed support for Gu Lu.
I can't say I support it, just watch the fun.
The key is that it is popular. British people like to watch it.
Most British people were happy to hear about Gu Lu's counterattack.
Why? Because you didn't attack the entire empire, you just attacked Weymouth.
Most people are not from Weymouth, so why should they be angry?
What's more, in the common concept of Europeans and Americans, sharpness and temper are the standard features of a genius.
Now, Gu Lu behaves like a genius in the eyes of the British.
Shocked after reading the information, Shi Feng never expected that a minor Chinese writer could make such a big splash in the UK.
Oh my God!
"The status of China's number one talented writer is still rising..." Shi Feng murmured to himself.
The next moment, with the professionalism of a deputy editor of a newspaper, he knew that this was big news and he needed to report it.
However, we need to investigate clearly before reporting. For example, what is the content of the short counterattack "The Haze in Weymouth" written by Gu Lu?
All current British media reports have only scratched the surface of "Gloom in Weymouth" and quoted at most two sentences to criticize it.
I would like to say that Shi Feng is a bit flirtatious, but he is still angry at the British for insulting China. So he thought Gu Lu was biased, but he did a good job.
“It seems that my friend Chang is a true friend.” Shi Feng said.
