Chapter 347 Too Formal
Vice Principal Ruan and Principal Gong put down their teacups. With the crisp sound of the teacups colliding with the table, the three people present knew, "It's time."
“Principal Gong, July 14th this year is the 230th anniversary of France’s National Day.” Director Zhao said, “Our original plan was to send the giant pandas there. But the French Embassy in China Mr. Dibo proposed another possibility. He hopes that Gu Lu, a student of your school, will write a related celebration article. "
Changing the article from Panda Yingying to Gu Lu? Vice Principal Ruan and Principal Gong looked at each other. Is the latter's article so valuable?
Director Zhao also saw the confusion in their eyes and explained: "Our country is becoming more and more influential, so the articles written by Chinese talents have more weight. Secondly, Gu Lu is very important in the field of foreign cultural diplomacy. Very famous. Perhaps the fame has not translated into book sales, but the two articles "The Immortal Escaper" and "The Battle for Antarctica" have been published in Spanish and Norwegian reading comprehensions."
"These two articles were translated by Professor Chen from Guangzhou Foreign Studies University and Professor Xia Hou from SJTU. The Chinese version was not published in the magazine." Director Zhao added.
That’s really awesome.
Principal Gong pushed up his glasses, "I see, no wonder I have never heard of such an excellent article."
"I heard that classmate Gu Lu has started writing again, so I hope he can Accept the invitation." Director Zhao said.
Not everyone pays attention to the Global Times. The two school leaders really don’t know about the news about Gu Lu’s return to the world.
"Our school will try its best to cooperate." Principal Gong said.
“It’s impossible to raise our giant pandas abroad, so for the sake of the giant pandas, our school also hopes that Gu Lu can agree.” Vice President Ruan said.
"Thank you Principal Gong and Principal Ruan for your cooperation." Director Zhao thanked him. In fact, according to Dibo, he had already discussed it with the author, but let's go through the process here.
After setting a time, Director Zhao did not stay any longer and said goodbye. It was still Vice Principal Ruan who sent it off.
Ten minutes later, Vice Principal Ruan returned again.
"Look, Gu Lu still has a huge advantage." Principal Gong said.
“No matter how old you are, you are still a junior.” Vice Principal Ruan said.
It’s smaller, the layout is smaller, Principal Gong said, “You can still take the postgraduate entrance examination and the Ph.D. examination.”
“Gu Lu’s chances of studying for the postgraduate entrance examination and the Ph.D. are not high.” Vice President Ruan said, "I asked."
Asked, when did you ask? Principal Gong was surprised.
Vice Principal Ruan didn’t explain much. Just kidding, when Gu Lu entered the school, he went and talked for a full two hours.
It’s such a pity that even if we come back, we don’t have enough time. Vice Principal Ruan sighed inwardly. However, he only knew that Gu Lu was a young leader in the country and had a high status in the country. Therefore, even if his expectations turned to disappointment, he did not have any direct conflict with him. He even greeted him with a smile when they met.
I never expected to be so recognized in the field of cultural diplomacy abroad.

"Okay, okay, no problem, Zhecheng-san. You know me, I listen to the publisher the most." Katsudauchi Maru was very happy, writing a book requires Accumulate, otherwise you can only do a bad job. Katsudauchi Maru writes that he drinks hard and has fun, although sometimes he drinks even if he doesn't work hard. The girls in the club are all talented and speak well. The key is that they admire him very much and their emotional value is quite good.
Zhecheng looked at the beer cans in Katsudauchi Maru's house and the garbage all over the house, his eyes flashed and he sighed.
Neon is very strict about garbage classification, and the garbage thrown out every day is fixed. And it’s very troublesome, like a bottle of square juice. After drinking, cut the juice box into pieces, clean it, and throw away the box cover and lid separately.
Therefore, as long as you are a little lazy, the house will be full of garbage.
Katsutanamaru didn't notice the editor's eyes, because a big stone fell in his heart. Without the pressure of writing, you can play crazier!
"Then I'll leave first." Before Zhecheng became the editor-in-chief, he would help clean up Katanauchi Maru's messy room when he saw it.
Now - his own identity is different. However, the reason Zhecheng gave himself was that Katanai Maru was hopeless, so don't waste your working time.
"Have you eaten, Zhecheng-san? Do you want to have dinner together? We can also discuss the context of books together." Katsudauchimaru stood up.
Let’s discuss books together. It has been two or three years since the last time the editor agreed. The first time he was rejected, Katsudauchimaru felt very sad and guilty, but after being rejected many times, his words became polite.
"Not today, let's talk about it later, I have something to do when I go back to the club." Zhecheng simply refused. When he was about to go out, he heard Shengduo's question.
"The publisher asked me not to rush to release the new book because it wanted me to revise the new book more carefully?" Katsudauchi Maru took it for granted.
"..." Zhecheng hesitated, and he responded, "Just have a good rest, that's it."
No, the situation is very wrong, Katsudauchimaru said nervously, "Is Zhecheng-san the Kadokawa Shoten Are you going to give up on me?”
“Of course not.” Zhecheng asked the other party to relax and have a good rest. After all, President Inoue’s style is not to give up on any writer who still has a chance to exploit him.
Although the sales of new books are getting worse and worse, each copy can still be sold for more than 300,000 yuan.
"Please tell me, Zhecheng-san. Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep at all tonight, and I will feel uneasy." Katsudauchi Maru bowed solemnly, "Please!"
After pondering for a few seconds, Zhecheng finally told the truth, "Gu Lu is going to publish a new book. This is his return after five years."
The answer was so cold that even Katsuda Uchimaru froze. After coming back to his senses, he immediately said, "Zhecheng-san, I once defeated that Chinese genius openly and honestly!"
"Is the company worried that I will lose? Impossible!" Katsudauchimaru was eager He wanted to prove himself, so his tone was particularly high, "If I can win once, I can win a second time." Zhecheng was unmoved, "I believe in you no matter how many wins you win."
< br>
I just believe it with my mouth, but in fact, what I really believe in my heart is "Shoot a Bullet at the Sun" created by Kadokawa Shoten's resources!
"No problem, I will definitely be able to write my new book this month." Katsuda Uchimaru sobered up, "Write it and I will win again."
"Katsuta, this is President Inoue's Order." Zhecheng's voice increased.
Hearing the name of the president, Katsudanamaru was excited. Judging from his expression, he must have thought of that face with wrinkles that could kill many mosquitoes.
Not only the wrinkles, but even the age spots on the face can recall the lines of anger. Katsudauchi Maru was silent for a moment.
"Have a good rest. You don't have to do anything to win again." Zhecheng left this sentence before leaving.
Nothing to do? Katsudauchimaru watched the editor-in-chief leave.
In order to convince himself, the child prodigy Katsudauchi Maru thought to himself that if he had not written for several years, Gu Lu must have suffered a severe decline in his writing ability.
Yes, definitely. He has a friend who writes mobile novels (Neon’s online novels). He said that there have been no updates for three months, and he doesn’t even know how to end a book.
After some not-so-complex psychological activities, Katanai Maru convinced himself.
"I'm humiliating myself again, so... I don't know if Oda-chan will go to work today. If she doesn't go to work, I'll call her. No, it's such a happy day, so I might as well call Kanae-chan along."
"Hahaha!"
A burst of obscene laughter, and the following content requires an adult to continue watching.
Another day, more than half of the moon has passed.
“Write well!” Vice Principal Ruan patted Gu Lu on the shoulder to express his efforts.
“I will try my best to write.” Gu Lu said, “I will try my best to restore the previous level.”
"Just do your best," said Principal Gong. "This article is a national treasure, hahaha."
The principal made a joke.
The two school leaders accompanied Gu Lu and walked out of the principal's office.
Compared with nothing when he entered, Gu Lu had a small paper bag in his hand, which was the invitation letter given to him by Director Zhao.
I have done this kind of thing twice, but this time it was much more formal than before.
Is this considered an improvement?
Except for being called to the office by the school leader, nothing else interfered with him.
Crackling, time passed by the sound of tapping on the green axis keyboard. Gu Lu used a green axis.
The time and the sound of the keyboard are really similar. It is a very obvious sound, but once you concentrate on it, you will not realize its existence at all...
Gu Lu’s code word speed recovery ratio I expected it to be faster, planning to finish it in mid-June, but ended up finishing the manuscript at the end of May.
Actually, the suspect only has 40,000 to 50,000 words. Although his junior year is not that much, Gu Lu has a lot of time, more than in high school.
So on May 29, Gu Lu handed the manuscript to Yao Xiaoju. The specific translation and stamp duty will be discussed in detail by the agent and Bai Tongshe. In addition, Gu Lu also sent Director Zhao an article celebrating the 200th anniversary of Bastille Day.
Director Zhao received the article in his mailbox and had it typed and proofread before sending it to Dibo.
Why send it to Dibo? Logically speaking, the congratulatory message should be sent on July 14th.
But Dibo, the Embassy in China, wanted to express himself too much, or wanted to participate in this matter too much, so he took over the translation work.
Dibo definitely didn't do it by himself. Translation is not a job that you can do just by knowing two languages.
Diebo also has connections and invited the famous French Chinese translator Mr. Xiao Wei'an. Mr. Xiao Wei'an is a very powerful translator who has translated classic works such as Dream of Red Mansions, Journey to the West, and Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio into French.
Students studying abroad in France should know this boss.
Because he is committed to translating Chinese classical literary works into French, Mr. Xiao Wei'an almost never accepts other translation tasks.
You can imagine how much effort Dibo has put in.
Seeing this situation, after discussion within the department, it was handed over to Mr. Xiao Wei'an.
“A genius overnight?” Dibo was also curious when he saw the manuscript in the email. Then it was sent to Mr. Xiao Wei'an, and Dibo also started to look at it.
Gu Lu said earlier that "The Battle for Antarctica" is one of the two best articles written by Zweig during the time when human stars were shining. Although it was deleted from domestic textbooks, it turned into a great tragedy and completely changed its original meaning. And the other one is about overnight genius!
