Chapter 944 The Little Prince

Yes.

Luoyang's new fairy tale is Saint-Exupéry's masterpiece "The Little Prince"!

Saint-Exupéry was a French novelist, poet, and pilot. He was famous for "The Little Prince" and an airport in his hometown was named after him. 50 years after his death On the anniversary, the French even printed the image of him and the little prince on the 50 French franc banknote——

This honor comes from the greatness of "The Little Prince"!

It is difficult to imagine that a fairy tale can be called great, but "The Little Prince" is indeed a great work. It is also one of the most widely circulated fairy tales in the world of Luoyang.

The work that can establish its status after "The Fairy Tale King" is none other than "The Little Prince"!

On Wikipedia, generally the more languages ​​a certain work is published in, the more influential it is. This "The Little Prince" has been translated into more than 100 languages ​​and publicized over the past 50 years since its publication. It is "second only to the Bible in terms of sales volume" and was dubbed "the greatest existential novel" by the philosopher Heidegger. It is even hailed as "the best book in the history of mankind" -

All right.

The statement that the sales volume is second only to the "Bible" is actually debatable, because in addition to "The Little Prince", there are several masterpieces that have received similar reviews. It is impossible to determine which one is true and which one is false, because in the past, social development was limited. Many statistics are inaccurate, but it is certain that "The Little Prince" has high sales and great influence.

Even if you haven't seen it, you must have admired his name for a long time!

Luoyang had watched "The Little Prince", probably when he was in elementary school. He didn't understand much of it at that time, but because he was born with a love for stories, he could still enjoy it even if he didn't understand the many metaphors in it.

Therefore, after Hua Qi left, Luoyang continued writing "The Little Prince".

At this time, Luoyang had already written the second chapter of "The Little Prince": [I lived alone like this, without anyone I could really talk to, until the breakdown occurred in the Sahara Desert six years ago. Something is broken in my engine. Since I had neither a mechanic nor a passenger with me at the time, I attempted to complete this difficult repair job alone. This is a matter of life and death for me. I only have enough water to drink for a week...]

Let's briefly understand what "The Little Prince" is about.

The little prince is an otherworldly fairy boy who lives on an asteroid that is only a little bigger than him. Accompanying him is a little rose that he loves very much.

But the rose's vanity hurt the little prince's feelings for her, so the little prince bid farewell to the asteroid and began his journey through space. He visited six planets successively, and various experiences made him fall into sadness. He felt that the adults were ridiculous and abnormal. Only on one of the lamplighter's planets did the little prince find someone who could be his friend.

But the world of the lamplighter is very small. Apart from the lamplighter himself, there is no room for anyone else.

Under the guidance of geographers, the lonely little prince came to the earth where humans live. The little prince found that human beings lack imagination and only know how to repeat what others have said like a parrot...

The little prince missed the little rose on his planet more and more.

Later, the little prince met a little fox. He conquered the little fox with patience and became a close friend with it. The little fox gave the secret in his heart as a gift to the little prince, and used this secret to...

The essence of things cannot be seen with the naked eye, only with the mind can we understand everything.

The little prince found the fountain of life with the pilot in distress in the Sahara Desert. Finally, the little prince left the earth with the help of the snake and returned to his asteroid B612.

The prince was not conquered by the deceptive world of adults, and finally found his ideal.

This ideal is the love that connects everything in the universe, and this kind of love is lacking in the world. Therefore, the little prince often showed a sad mood.

The author Saint-Exupéry said in his dedication:

This book is dedicated to the former child who grew up to be an adult.

Therefore, "The Little Prince" has not only won children's readers, but also been loved by adults. The concise language of the work permeates the author's profound thinking about human beings and human civilization. The satire and fantasy, true feelings and philosophy it expresses have made it the most famous fairy tale novel in France and even in the world...

The keyboard rang and crackled.

Recalling the general plot, Luoyang writes more and more smoothly. Of course, in addition to typing, Luoyang occasionally needs to draw, because there are many things in the work "The Little Prince" that need to be expressed through pictures. This is a picture-text book. Fortunately, these paintings do not require high painting skills. The world-famous cartoonist in Luoyang can do it with ease.

After finishing 20,000 words in one go, Luoyang got off work.

On the way home from get off work, Luoyang called Lu Yu'er. After the latter answered the call, he immediately said with a smile: "Hello, it seems we haven't contacted him for a long time. I am obsessed with fairy tales recently."

"Addicted to fairy tales?"

"The story in your "The King of Fairy Tales" is quite interesting. In the future, when I get married and have children, I can tell it to my children without having to read it from the book. That would be great."

"When you read a fairy tale, you think about getting married and having children."

Lu Yu'er smiled: "Be prepared for any trouble. Let's not talk about this. You don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Let me guess why you called. Well, you probably need me to be a translator?"

"Smart!"

"That is, I can also guess that it is for your new fairy tale book. In fact, I am also paying attention to the recent trends of your works in the West. I have many friends there who can provide me with the most intuitive information."

"Indeed, the new fairy tale book needs your help in translating it."

Lu Yuer's translation skills are quite strong, which has been well reflected in "Sherlock Holmes". This "Little Prince" is of great importance, so Luoyang thought of her again.

"Sure, no problem!"

Lu Yu'er readily agreed, and after thinking for a while she added: "Your influence has completely surpassed The King's influence. How does it feel to defeat yourself?"

"It feels more subtle."

"So, when will Teacher Theking release a new book?

"It should be soon. Let's wait until "The Little Prince" is published. Oh, by the way, "The Little Prince" is my new fairy tale book. It will be sent to your mailbox after it is written. Please check it."

Lu Yuer smiled and said: "No problem, I'm looking forward to it, but don't let me down."
