Silicon Valley
Chapter 2 The struggle for destiny
Uncle Peter's house is a hell, Aunt Rosa is a vicious devil, and Henry Williams is tormented by them like a gas bag every day.
Since ten days ago, Peter and Rosa have suddenly fired on him for no reason, and then began to abuse him. Henry lived in a storage room on the roof that was less than ten square meters. In addition to a small rust-stained bed, it was also full of various odorous debris. This morning, when Henry slept soundly , Rosa was already yelling outside.
"Broom Star, hurry up and do housework!!!"
"Don't think that you can eat and live for nothing when you are still young! If you don't clean your house today, you don't even want to eat!!!"
Henry's shoulders were sore, and even his hands had blisters. Peter asked Henry to wash his dirty and greasy work clothes, and he asked Henry to clean the house every day. The most annoying thing was that Rosa always found fault with Henry when he had nothing to do, let him work, and yelled at him. .
Henry got up, rubbed his shoulders, put on his clothes, and walked out of the door of the storage room. Outside the door, Rosa looked at him with a vicious look.
"Mrs Rosa, my hands are blistering, what else do you want me to do today! Laundry? Cleaning? Chopping wood? You know, I finished all that last night. So it's me all day today. I can use it any way I want!" Henry said coldly.
"Have you cleaned up?" "Don't you know that the floor at home is dirty again?" Rosa stared at Henry proudly, especially seeing his shriveled appearance, she felt a kind of deformed pleasure after revenge. They didn't get £100,000, and they felt lost, as if they had done some money-losing business. So, under the influence of this perverted emotion, in order to "make money", Rosa would torture Little Henry in other ways.
Henry smiled and laughed loudly in front of Rosa. If he was really just a ten-year-old boy, he might even be bullied by Rosa.
But he is not!
He is a middle-aged uncle Qin Muliang from 2015. He was originally a network engineer, but unfortunately died of electrocution in the laboratory. However, fortunately, the ancestral grave smoked and traveled to 1984. In fact, on the day of the London car accident, little Henry was already dead, and Qin Muliang was his replacement.
"Mrs Rosa, you're very happy to deliberately abuse children, aren't you? Maybe I should call Constable Charlie and ask if child abuse is illegal in the UK!" Henry said, deliberately opening his palms to reveal evidence.
Seeing the row of blisters on Henry's hand, Rosa felt guilty secretly, her face was both angry and stern, like a defeated hen.
Henry walked past Rosa with a sneer, then went downstairs, and finally walked out of the house.
Although Rosa was frightened by Henry once this time, Henry was bound to be surrounded by others when he lived in this family, not to mention that the family did not like to see him. If Henry hadn't been too young and had already run away from home, why would he be so angry here? Qin Muliang, the current Henry Williams, even though he was only ten years old, was unwilling to resist at all.
In recent days, Henry has been hiding in the storage room whenever he has time to carry out his great cause of resistance.
He knew that if he had money, he would go anywhere; if he had money, Peter and his wife would be willing to pretend to be grandsons.
So, Henry wrote the words "Harry Potter" in the storage room.
Strange to say, after the time-travel, Henry's mind remembered all kinds of things in his previous life. Anything that you have seen or heard once, can be remembered clearly. And the memory of this world is also very outstanding, and the ability to learn and understand is also super. Henry was ecstatic for the first two days, but over time he got used to it.
Although Henry was only a network engineer in his previous life, he had a wide range of hobbies, like movies, music, novels...
In the current environment, the only thing Henry can take advantage of is to write a novel to make money. But what kind of novel should I write? Henry was just about to think, but suddenly found that Harry Potter and his own situation were very similar: they were both orphans, they were fostered in an uncle's house, and they were abused, and they even lived near the London railway station. , many conditions are too consistent, God is destined to write a novel to write "Harry Potter"!
Fortunately, Henry had read this book in his previous life, and now he copied it, and it went smoothly.
It's just that writing 10,000 words by hand a day is more tiring than 30,000 words on a computer.
After a quarrel with Mrs. Rosa in the morning, Henry went out with the manuscript. Asked passing by, Henry came to a small publishing house nearby - Giraffe Publishing House. There are many such publishing houses named after animals, such as Penguin Publishing House, one of the most famous book publishing houses in the UK.
Coincidentally, Giraffe Publishing House is not far from Peter's house, less than 200 meters away.
After Henry entered the room, he looked left and right, and also stood for a long time, but no one paid him any attention. In the hall, a young man in a suit was hooking up with the lady at the front desk. And the lady at the front desk also seemed to be fascinated by the handsome guy. She winked like silk and discharged frequently. Henry vaguely heard the name of a hotel, really relying on it...
Just as Henry was about to interrupt the couple, a middle-aged man came out of the elevator, dressed in a decent suit, holding a folder in his hand, and walked slowly towards the crowd. The young man's eyes lit up and immediately greeted him.
"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Pulis. I'm Kane Bill, the author of "North Wind"." The young man extended his hand and greeted him.
"Hello, "North Wind" is a good novel. The company has decided to publish your novel. I called you here today to sign a contract with you." Pulis smiled and shook hands with him.
"Oh, that's really great!" Kane Bill showed a happy look.
Henry looked at Pulis, knowing that this person was the editor-in-chief of the publishing house, and immediately stepped forward and greeted, "Mr. Pulis, hello!"
Pulis was stunned for a while, not knowing who this child was. Seeing him standing with Kane Bill, he thought it was brought by Kane Bill, so he responded with a smile: "Hello, little boy. !"
"Mr. Price, can you take a look at the novel I wrote? I mean, can your publisher publish my novel!" Henry said seriously, his blue eyes bright and sincere, extremely Looking at the editor-in-chief of Pulis expectantly. Editor-in-Chief Price was stunned for a second. A ten-year-old child was looking for his own publishing house to publish a book, which seemed very funny no matter what.
"Little boy, how old are you, what's your name?"
"I'm ten years old, my name is Henry, Henry Williams!"
"Oh, are you Peter's little nephew?" Price asked.
"I think so, if Peter is a dirty, lazy and bad-tempered car mechanic!" Henry said dissatisfied.
"Haha, yes, what you described is quite right." Pulis laughed, then looked at Henry carefully, and said to him, "I know your uncle, and I heard that he recently adopted his nephew!"
"Mr. Price, can you take a look at my novel?" Henry didn't want to talk to him about anything else, and immediately changed the subject. At the same time, Henry handed over the manuscript in his hand.
Price took it, flipped through it, and glanced at two pages. Before a minute had passed, Price closed the manuscript: "Little Henry, I'm sorry, our publishing house cannot publish such a childish novel."
so childish? ! !
Although the first Harry Potter film is a bit low-level, it can't be dismissed as worthless. The novel is full of whimsy and childishness. Could it be that as an editor-in-chief, you don't have this level of appreciation? Henry's face flashed with disdain.
Maxima often has it, but Bole does not often have it! No wonder J.K. Rowling's past life was miserable at first, and there is really a lack of Bole who can really read this book!
The young man next to him, Kane Bill, smiled and said, "Writing novels is not for everyone. Without a little experience or writing, you can't write a novel!"
After Kane Bill finished speaking, a proud look appeared on his face unconsciously.
"Mr. Bill is right! Little Henry, you are still young and lacking in life experience. When you grow up, it will not be too late to write novels!" Price preached to Henry.
"Harry Potter" is actually worth nothing by what you said, it is really unbearable and unbearable! Henry sneered in his heart, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Mr. Price, who said that he couldn't write at a young age? My novel will definitely shine in the future!!!"
Kane Biel suddenly sneered, and Pulis also raised his face, showing a displeased look.
Seeing this, Henry knew that there was no hope of publishing, so he took the manuscript and walked straight to the door. After Henry pushed the door and left, Pulis said lightly, "How naive and ignorant!!!"
"Yes, yes, the editor-in-chief of Pulis has a brilliant eye, how can that kindergarten novel fall into your eyes!" Kane Bill complimented slightly flatteringly.
Price's face softened a little, revealing a hint of pride.
"By the way, Editor-in-Chief Pulis, what's the name of that novel?" Kane Bill asked curiously.
"Huh?" Price thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be called "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", a name that is snarling..."
