It was two days after Lu Yuer got the content of "The Little Prince", in fact, the full text of "The Little Prince" is very short, just over 40,000 words, but Luoyang has to write stories and illustrate stories, so the speed is a little slower. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The lamp is on.

Lu Yuer opened "The Little Prince".

The first thing that caught her eye was the preface to "The Little Prince": "We are busy all day long, like swarms of soulless flies, noisy, restless, and unable to hear the voice of the depths of our souls. Time passes, childhood is gone, we grow up, the years have taken away a lot of memories, but also eroded the childish innocence that we once had in our hearts, we ignore the shackles of the soul, indulge in the glitz of the world, focus on the law of interests, we lose ourselves. 】

Quickly organizing the way of translation in her mind, Lu Yuer continued to look down.

Because before translating, she needs to read the story first, only then can she complete the translation of "The Little Prince" with maximum efficiency.

The criticism and reflection of the adult world in this "The Little Prince" is carried out from two perspectives, one is the perspective of the narrator "I", in the eyes of "me", adults have been completely overwhelmed by worldly affairs, they have lost their colorful imagination, they cannot enjoy the joy of life, and even their intelligence seems to be constantly degrading.

For example:

Adults judge whether a point of view is correct or not, not on the basis of facts and reasoning, but on the clothing of man: the same opinion, when spoken by a man in a suit and leather shoes, is right, and when spoken by a man in rags, it is wrong.

Another example:

If you introduce a house to adults and say, "I see a beautiful house with red brick walls, geraniums in front of the window, and pigeons perched on the roof......," they will turn a deaf ear and do not respond. But if you say, "I see a house worth 10 million." Their eyes lit up at once, and they exclaimed, "What a beautiful house!"

This fairy tale is really interesting.

The corners of Lu Yuer's mouth curled, and she continued to watch, and soon, the perspective switched to the little prince.

The little prince passed by the first planet, and on this planet, there was a king of light poles, and when the king saw the little prince, he immediately cried out: "Ah, here comes a subject." ”

"He has never seen me, how can he know me?"

The little prince did not know that in the eyes of those kings, the world was very simple: all people were subjects.

The little prince looked around and tried to find a place to sit, but the whole planet was filled with the king's magnificent white robe and black flowered leather robes, and he had to stand there, but he yawned because he was tired.

The king said to him, "I forbid you to yawn." ”

The little prince said ashamedly, "I can't help it, I have come here after a long journey, and I haven't slept yet." ”

The king said, "Well, I command you to yawn." I hadn't seen anyone yawn in years, and yawning was a novelty to me. Come on, yawn again! ”

……

Lu Yuer was thoughtful.

The first story is about a king who likes to call the shots.

The king is a symbol of the autocratic ruler, the little prince yawns with his approval, and if he does not yawn, he must also get his approval, in fact, it does not matter whether he yawns or not, the important thing is whether he yawns or not must obey the king's "order", this kind of arrogant "supremacy of power" is the characteristic of all autocratic rule; the vain man is an extremely narcissistic person, and his only goal in life is to accept the worship of others.

It's ironic.

It's so spicy!

With a gradually rising interest, Lu Yuer continued to watch:

The second story tells the story of a vain man who, when he saw the little prince, cried out from afar, "Oh!

In the eyes of those who love vanity, others become their admirers.

The Vanity had a hat, so the little prince said, "Hello, your hat is strange. ”

"It's for the sake of paying homage. The vain man replied, "When the people cheered at me, I greeted them with my hat, but alas, no one has passed by yet." ”

The little prince was puzzled and said, "Huh?

The vain man suggested to the little prince: "You clap the other with one hand." ”

When the little prince heard this, he began to clap his palms, and when the vain man saw the little prince applauding, he humbly raised his hat to greet the little prince, and his posture was very gentlemanly......

Seeing this, Lu Yuer couldn't help but smile.

She naturally said to herself: "As it is said in the book, everyone who loves vanity has become their admirer." ”

Story continues: [The little prince thinks: "This is more interesting than visiting the king.] So he slapped again. The love vanity raised his hat again to greet him.

The little prince did this for five minutes.

After a little tired of this monotonous trick, the little prince said, "What should you do to make your hat fall off?"

But this time the vain lover could not listen to him, for all those who love vanity can only listen to praise, and he turned to the little prince, "Do you really admire me?"

"What does admiration mean?"

"Admiration, very simply, is that you have to admit that I am the most beautiful person on this planet, the best dressed person on this planet, the richest man on this planet, the smartest person on this planet. ”

"But you're the only one on your planet!"

"Let me be happy, please come and admire me!"

The little prince shrugged his shoulders lightly and said, "I admire you, but is there anything that can interest you so much, these adults are really very strange......]

"Praise me, admire me!"

"Whoever loves vanity hears nothing but praise. ”

"These words, it's really word for word, no wonder Luoyang said in an interview before, this new work is more suitable for adults to see, because there is a lot of irony in it, children can't read it, only sophisticated adults, can realize their ridiculousness in front of this fairy tale, and even I, when I read this fairy tale, I have a faint uncomfortable feeling in my heart, as if I have been seen through......"

Previously, Lu Yuer and Luoyang said that she had recently been obsessed with fairy tales.

In fact, there is a certain joke in it, although "Fairy Tale King" is interesting, but after all, it is written for children, and it is not enough for Lu Yuer to indulge, but now that she sees "The Little Prince", Lu Yuer is really beginning to indulge in fairy tales-

She went on.
