Back to 80: My Literary Life

Dai Jiali also noticed Fang Minghua, his eyes a little flustered.

Fang Minghua thought for a while and walked over and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Looking for a job." The girl pretended to be nonchalant.

"Looking for a job here? Didn't you say you would set up a translation agency with your classmates?"

"It was established, but there is no business, so we have to find work individually." The girl whispered.

The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny.

It turned out that Dai Jiali left his mother without saying goodbye with 200 yuan in his arms and came to Hainan with his dream. Only when he arrived did he realize that it was not what he thought.

There are too many college students coming to Hainan.

Hainan was unable to absorb so much of the sudden influx in a short period of time. What made Dai Jiali even sadder was that most of the surrounding college students were majoring in liberal arts!

There are many poets, writers, painters, teachers, editors, and reporters who have just made their debut. Most of their job hunting destinations are the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, Writers Associations, newspapers, magazines, and universities and middle schools.

There are many people who learn translation, but how can there be so many foreigners and foreign books in Haikou?

As a last resort, she had no choice but to take action and come near Wanghai Tower. The people living here were big bosses who came to invest and some foreigners, so there might be a chance.

"Still not found here?" Fang Minghua asked.

"Well, I haven't seen a foreigner yet." Dai Jiali could only say.

Why.

The HAN province has not yet been established, various preferential measures have not been introduced, and the basic conditions are so poor. Why should foreigners invest now?

A long skull?

In fact, historically, the Hainan Special Economic Zone was also played by domestic people, and it was all about real estate.

Seeing the girl like this, Fang Minghua felt a little sympathetic. He thought for a moment and said, "Dai Jiali, go to room 606 to find someone. He is the fat man who came to Haikou with me some time ago. He wants to start a company. You go and apply to see if he wants you." ”

"Thank you, I'll be there right away!" The girl threw away the sign and rushed in immediately, but was grabbed by Fang Minghua.

"Why are you in a hurry? He's still sleeping! He won't go there in three or four hours."

"Okay, okay" the girl agreed.

After finishing this matter, Fang Minghua was about to leave with his travel bag.

"Brother, why are you going?" Dai Jiali asked curiously.

"go home."

Fang Minghua said without looking back.

"Brother, you are a good person." The girl said from behind.

Why.

Another good guy card.

Fang Minghua rushed to Dayingshan Airport in a Santana. After an hour's flight, he arrived at Huacheng Baiyun Airport. He waited at the airport for two hours and then took a plane to Xijing. He arrived in Xijing at around 7 p.m.

As soon as Fang Minghua stepped out of the cabin with his luggage, he was shivered by the cold wind blowing in his face.

Directly from summer to winter.

Coming out of the airport departure hall, Fang Minghua beat the Duke and went straight to his parents' house. Fortunately, Xixian International Airport had not yet been built at this time. Xijing was still the original old airport, Xiguan Airport, just outside Andingmen in the western suburbs, not counting Xincheng Square. Otherwise, Fang Minghua would also feel distressed by the high taxi fare.

When I got home, my parents, sister, daughter-in-law and son were all there, and it suddenly seemed lively.

At night, when their son fell asleep, the couple lay half on the bed in their pajamas and chatted, naturally about opening a branch in Hainan.

"Minghua, I have considered this matter carefully and feel that since a branch is opened in Haikou, there should be differences between the companies in Haikou and Xijing." Song Tangtang said in a low voice.

"you say?"

Song Tangtang continued:

"The Red Army also called me this afternoon and said that they are planning to transfer the publishing work of the "female" series of books written by Xue Mili to Haikou in the future. Then I think we should simply publish all romance and martial arts books like this. Move over and Xijing should publish this type of book.”

"what type?"

"I'll bring it to you to see."

Song Tangtang got out of bed, took out a book from the desk drawer and handed it to Fang Minghua. It turned out to be an English novel.

"A Clockwork Orange"

Fang Minghua recognized several English words.

Oh, it's "A Clockwork Orange"!

Fang Minghua had read this novel before coming to this era, of course it was a Chinese translation.

It is a long fantasy novel written by British writer Anthony Burgess. It tells the story of Alex, a troubled boy in a restless adolescence in British future society. He is a street boy who does all kinds of evil. He was arrested due to a murder case, and the authorities tried a special method on him to "transform" him into a person who would be extremely painful whenever he had violent thoughts. He can only do good but cannot do evil. He has lost the ability to choose good and evil and has lost his free will. He felt like an orange that had been wound up...

In fact, it is about the discussion of youth loss and human nature. It was later adapted into a movie, which was very sensational.

Fang Minghua was a little surprised when Song Tangtang took out the original English book. It seems that there is no Chinese translation of this book in China, right?

"Lili brought this back from England." Song Tangtang explained.

I see!

"Lili is back from winter vacation?" Fang Minghua asked.

"Well, I came back with several foreign books. She recommended me to read this one. I struggled to read it, but I found it very interesting. She also said that our book company may not necessarily publish martial arts romance novels, but it can publish such novels. , although it is not as classic as Shakespeare’s novels, it is very popular among readers abroad.”

"oh"

This is true.

This is the equivalent of a bestseller.

"The problem is that someone needs to translate it into Chinese. How about asking Lili to help translate it into Chinese? For a doctor like her, it should be no problem, right?" Fang Minghua said.

Song Tangtang rolled her eyes at him: "Lili is busy translating your book "Crossing the Guandong" and writing her doctoral thesis. How can she have time?!"

I forgot, Li Li graduated with her PhD this summer.

Translation is indeed a problem.

Fang Minghua suddenly remembered Dai Jiali whom he met in Hainan. Her classmates had set up a translation agency. Why not let them try it?

Fang Minghua briefly told Song Tangtang how he met Dai Jiali in Haikou and told his wife, and offered to let their translation agency translate.

"Well, you can try it!" Song Tangtang agreed.

"What other novels did Lili bring back?" Fang Minghua asked again.

"There are several books, all written in foreign languages, including English and Japanese. I didn't write down the names. You can call her and ask her tomorrow."

"Oh well."

Since you want to translate, translate a few more books and publish whichever one is better translated.

The next day, Fang Minghua was not in a hurry to go to work. Of course Song Tangtang had to go to the company. After lunch, he carried his son to his father-in-law's house and wanted to see his daughter.

The two children were one year old and almost walking. They couldn't stay at home and had to go out to play. Fortunately, the father-in-law had a small yard, so Fang Minghua put a belt around the child's waist, and he and his mother-in-law Pulling one behind each other, the children staggered and learned to walk.

Hey. It's so cold outside, but the two children actually had a lot of fun.

After the two children finally calmed down and returned to the house to play with toys, Fang Minghua called Li Li's house and asked her to bring those books.
