Chapter 0505 - Deeply Hurt
"Fifth Avenue has probably never experienced anything like it since it became one of the busiest streets in the world, with thousands of people in long winding lines, large of them, communicating in swear words from all parts of the English-speaking world, full of goodwill, friendship, and without the slightest sense of anger or insult. Such a strange and inexplicable scene in the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info comes from the signing scene of Lin Haven's "Scolding Bible". A local TV station in New York reported on the scene of Lin Haven's book signing.
"Hello, can I interview you?"
"Of course, cute little chrysanthemums. β
The handsome host of the "......" was obviously a conservative and was not very comfortable with this way of greeting: "Okay, I want to ask where you're from, New York, what do you think of the Bible?"
"No, I came from Florida just to get an autograph from Lin, and he fascinated me so much. As for the Bible, I can't sleep without it now, you know what it feels like? It's like you can't sleep without a. The man interviewed squeezed his eyes.
The host took a breath, politely said thank you, and then walked thirty meters ahead to find a girl who looked more gentle.
"Hey, can you give me an interview?"
"Ask, handsome little turkey. β
"Uh-huh?...... You look very well-behaved, and you're going to come to the book signing and surprise people, can you tell me?"
"Good?" The gentle girl smiled shyly: "That's not the case, Lin is from China, and I heard that they are very conservative, so I specially borrowed the clothes of the 18-year-old virgin next door today." β
Oh, God.
Kill me with a thunderbolt.
The host walked away silently, and this time he walked 50 meters to give himself enough courage, and he found a woman who looked more kindβthis is really a very small minority in the team.
"Can you excuse me?"
"Are you on TV? New York? Today, when is it airing?" the woman was very excited.
"Uh, yes, about 8:40 p.m. "The host was a little dumbfounded.
The woman's eyes flashed, she cleared her throat, and suddenly raised two middle fingers towards the camera: "Fuccck, Richard, don't think that the old lady will swallow her anger anymore, if you get drunk and go wild at home again, the old lady will scold you like a dog, you bitch garbage." β
The host fled.
Perhaps, the profession of host is not so suitable for him.
Lin Haven finally knew that the book signing meeting turned out to be such a difficult thing, and when he signed hundreds of books, his hands were already sore. The physical damage is secondary, and more importantly, when these bastards walk up to him, they greet him more excitedly and frown.
"Hey, little chrysanthemum. β
"Shell Lang, thank you. β
"I'm so glad to see you, big ass. β
He already felt that he couldn't bear it anymore, and he never expected that there would be a day of retribution on his head, and he didn't receive any wicked value, really, irritably. When it came time to sign up for 200 copies, he decided to fight back, or rather be a little more enthusiastic.
When a young man walked in front of him and didn't speak, Lin Haven looked over with a smile.
"Little, thank you for coming. β
"Thank you, would you like to have a hair? Let you feel the wonderful taste of the flowers in full bloom. β
β...... Oh, the next one. Lin quickly decided to remain silent.
The whole day of bombing made Lin Haven physically and mentally exhausted, and he decided not to do it again. The owner of Noble Bookstore, who took a lot of photos excitedly, was not the first time he had held a book signing, but the atmosphere and enthusiasm of today's book were the best. This is what he wants it to be, what he wants Noble Bookstore to be.
It's a dream come true.
"I don't know how to praise you for your performance today, but it's amazing, it's as hot as a pack of dogs eating shi, and you're the head dog. Xiaonuo squeezed his eyes: "I've read your book, and I've written down a lot of sentences." β
The smile on Lin Haiwen's face was finally thrown to the ground by him.
"Yes, I can see that you are as excited now as the crazy turkey that has just been caught by the bison, have a good dream at night, and bless your chrysanthemum, Mr. Noble. β
Little Noble sent him away without the slightest displeasure.
Breath.
......
The pomp and circumstance of the signing event was very widespread in the English-speaking media world, especially on Haven Lin's Facebook, where everyone was excitedly exchanging ideas and quoting words from the book.
Of course, the domestic media is not so unscrupulous, but they still did not miss this hot spot.
"Haven Lin's New York Book Signing Gets Thousands of Participants"
"Chinese first?" Lin Haven's Fifth Avenue Book Signing Party was unprecedented. β
"3,500 people! That's the number of Chinese writers at a book signing in the United States. β
All the reports only mention the title of the book and do not describe it in any way, let alone quote its contents. Even if some book critics are quoted, they try to pick out the right eye. For example, the New York Times recommended some excerpts: "A best-selling book that provoked a strong response, and the subversive subject matter made it attract attention......"
The report is full of pride.
"Don't blow it, hurry up, this is a "Collection of English Dirty Words", Lin Haiwen Niu is also a cow, a book that no one has written in the United States, let him write it as a Chinese. β
"Why can't you blow it? Isn't it more difficult to write a 'Swearing Bible' than to write an ordinary novel? Is it a fake to become a New York Times bestseller? Moreover, many foreigners around me have changed their views of Chinese people since this book, and they used to think that we were all nerds who could only learn, but now at least they know that Chinese people are normal people. β
β...... I'd rather be treated like a nerd. β
"Is there any Chinese? I really want to see it. β
"Yes, yes, English is not good, can you give a Chinese version, Lin Dashen, as a Chinese, doesn't make a Chinese version, it's too much. β
"It's better to look at the original English flavor, this kind of thing has a cultural background, don't think it's really a collection of dirty words. Different regions, different descriptions, different periods, different ethnicities, and many things are involved, and it can be said that Lin Haven's work shows the cultural form of the Western world, or the English-speaking world, on the other hand. β
"Upstairs, I'll obey you, and I seized the opportunity to pretend to be a force. β
"Seriously, this kind of book, Lin Haven has a bit of a conscience, and he didn't use the Chinese version to poison the young people of China. β
Not only in China, but since the publication of the "Swearing Bible" in the United States, this kind of controversy has actually existed, and it is far more intense than this movement in China.
Parents and conservative people, in particular, abhor such a book, while young people regard it as their favorite.
The controversy subsided over time, but a signings brought it back to life. (To be continued.) )
