Wenhao: This child has been smart since he was young

Chapter 184 What a classic!

In the next math class, listening to the sound of raindrops falling from the eaves outside the window, it was so soothing as white noise that Gu Lu almost fell asleep.

"I wrote too late yesterday. I'll go to the activity room to catch up on some sleep. I'm a little sleepy." Gu Lu said while trying to hold back his sleepiness.

However, there was an incident in the classroom that made him sober up a lot.

Because the pen-spinning king Tian Xiao was scolded again, Teacher Lu’s criticism was very loud, and Gu Lu was shocked.

Some people, even though the criticism and scolding have nothing to do with them, still feel nervous.
"If you can't do it, I won't say anything. Just do more papers and you'll get it. The correct answer is 389.6, and your answer is 386.9. This is a low-level mistake, a low-level mistake."

"Also - there are two typos on the math test. You are unique too."

Although he is so strict, Teacher Lu must be disappointed with his student. It is obvious that the student did not make a mistake in the calculation, but was careless when writing the answer. The point deduction is not worth it!

"You have to stand and listen for the rest of the class." Teacher Lu wanted to teach Tian Xiao a lesson.

I guess he just can't learn his lesson, because Teacher Gao has invited the parents before, but Tian Xiao still can't change his bad habits of making spelling mistakes and being careless.

At noon, Gu Lu was taking out the trash. He was the student on duty today. The trash was overflowing. When he came back to put the trash can away, he heard a male voice next to him.

"No wonder I didn't see the trash can. Brother Gulu, help me throw it out."

Tian Xiao, feeling unhappy, handed the math test paper to Gu Lu. He had a complaining look on his face. The complaint of the pen-spinning king was also justified. If it wasn't for the test paper, he would definitely not be scolded!
Although the math test paper after the lecture is really useless, you can still keep it for review.

Gu Lu took the test paper and was about to say that he should keep it, but the synthesis list in his mind was triggered -

[Hugo and Nebula Award winners] [Classic full of typos] [Tear-jerking masterpiece]

Gu Lu took the math test paper, looked at Tian Xiao again, and froze for a moment.
"Or... I'll throw it away myself." Tian Xiao felt uncomfortable being stared at, and then silently took the math test paper back from Gu Lu.

The next second, the three labels gradually dimmed.

The Hugo Award is one of the highest awards for science fiction, and the Nebula Award is the highest award for science fiction in America. If a work wins both awards, it will definitely enter the world's science fiction hall of fame.

How could you miss this kind of work!

"No, I'll do it. I must throw away this paper! If it weren't for it, you wouldn't have been punished to stand for half a class!" Gu Lu's tone had never been so sincere.

Gu Lu took the test paper and left the classroom. Even Tian Xiao was unable to react to his series of actions.

"Are all writers so jumpy?" Tian Xiao pondered.

Gu Luke didn't care what Tian Xiao was thinking, because he recognized what this work was at first glance from the three labels.

The original text of the book is full of typos, but it is a classic science fiction novel, "Flowers for Algernon"!
Although it is a science fiction classic, it is soft science fiction. It can even be said that it is a science fiction work in a sci-fi skin, but it still writes about human nature. It is said to be a work that can make people cry seven times.

A truly heart-wrenching sci-fi masterpiece!

"It must be, it must be!" Gu Lu was holding a paper with typos and mistakes, which was exactly in line with the plot in the book. "

This work was filmed twice in Hollywood, twice in Japan, and once in Switzerland. The story is so profound that no further explanation is needed.

Gu Lu was recalling the content and thinking about Algernon's classic lines, but suddenly another thing woke him up.

"That's not right. I haven't started my "Sorrow-Relieving Grocery Store" yet. The item synthesis list should still be occupied. Why can "Flowers for Algernon" be triggered?"

Gu Lu carefully observed his own list. The first three labels [Amazon's best-selling books in 2017], [Central Public Opinion on Literature and Art], and [Atypical Representative Works] disappeared.

What is this? Gu Lu pondered, this tag should have been triggered for three months, if it cannot be synthesized for a long time, it will be replaced?
Of course, he was still happy because the replacement work was more exciting.

Great, Gu Lu went to the library. The students were eating, so there was no one here. The original plan was to take a nap, but now he was not sleepy at all.

In the next few days, Gu Lu was recalling the original text of Algernon, but he also did not neglect writing and work.

The first part of the "Classic Series" is Hyouka. Gu Lu finally finished it a week before the final exam.

The final exam for Grade 1 will be on January 20th.

Kazukuma Yasuda's contract was also sent over. The contents were finalized online, and he sent it over only after signing it.

After Gu Lu signed, he kept one copy for himself and sent the other one back.

"President Jian, my second novel has been sent to your mailbox. It's called "Hyouka."" Gu Lu delivered it to President Jian that night.

After making this phone call, Gu Lu turned into liquid like slime and flowed onto the bed.

Gu Lu initially wanted to change the name of "Hyouka", but later found that it was totally impossible because this name had a special meaning...

After receiving Gu Lu's email, President Jian immediately read it with the intention of reviewing and appreciating it. He read it for two hours.

The first thought was that it was suitable for publication by their publishing house.

The second thought was that this kind of book might not sell well.

Because the content is too "plain", the current book market probably cannot accept it.

Of course, having said that, clear water does not mean bad. President Jian liked the whole story very much.

in particular--

[“Please look at Suzhemu. This is my hometown. There is only water and land. People are gradually aging and losing their vitality.”

[Please look at me, Su Zhemu. I am just an ordinary girl, growing up slowly. ]

“I don’t think this is the most beautiful place, nor do I think it’s full of possibilities…”

[I don’t think I’m the most beautiful girl you’ve ever met, and I’m not sure you’ll accept me.]

"But I want to introduce this place to you."

But I still want you to stay with me

"It's starting to get cold."

"No, it's already spring."

We’ve just begun
The scene in President Jian’s book where the heroine confesses her love to the hero is a true confession of a high school student, not about having a baby or having an abortion.

Especially when the male protagonist Su Zhemu politely refused, Fan Lu's answer. President Jian, an older adult, already thought that the curious baby of the female protagonist Fan Lu was very cute.

“[ ]” is President Jian’s interpretation of Fan Lu’s confession. President Jian muttered to himself, “Students can still write about good students, but…”

In addition, President Jian would like to remind Gu Lu to read less translated works, or read the works of famous translators. If you read too many translations that are not so localized, your works will always have a "translation tone".

"Comparatively, the line of reasoning before the Hyouka incident is meaningless." President Jian was thinking about how to explain to Gu Lu that the book might fail if published.
