Dubai has always been a tyrant city that lives in the news, and when the Nanhai Publishing Company and its party landed at Dubai Airport, the Chinese delegation had already gathered a lot.

They all flew in from different cities and were ready to fly to Frankfurt, Germany, on an Emirates plane.

More than 7,500 exhibitors are expected to participate in this book fair, and the China Book Fair delegation has brought almost 2,000 kinds of books, including not only people from the publishing industry, but also many performing artists!

Some are responsible for playing musical instruments such as guzheng and pipa, some are responsible for ink landscape painting, and some are calligraphers, all of which are used to attract booksellers and tourists when exhibiting in the China Pavilion, as well as a way to showcase Chinese culture.

At last year's Book Fair, Chinese folk music performances, tea ceremonies, calligraphy and scripture copying and Peking Opera performances were also in the news of foreign media, so they made a comeback this year.

The mighty delegation could not be loaded away by a plane, and some of the publishing companies that came first came over to greet each other after seeing the Nanhai Publishing Company, and then they also watched coldly and continued to do their own thing.

Gu Xinxue followed Shi Zhiguo and the two did not talk to others, the two of them planned to take advantage of the transfer in these few hours to have a good visit to Dubai Airport!

I've heard of Dubai before, but unfortunately I can't leave the airport, so I can only take a stroll around it.

But if the airport built by the Dubai people is extraordinary, for example, the decorative lights of the airport are all golden branches, Gu Xinxue muttered to himself, "This can't be real gold, right?"

"According to their preferences, maybe it's true, it's really rich!"

There are all kinds of duty-free shops at the airport, but Gu Xinxue and the others did not choose to buy it, this is just the first stop of departure, and it is not too late to buy it when you come back.

There are a lot of Mandarin shopping guides here, and you can still hear familiar voices when you pass by the door of the store.

The supermarket contains a variety of UAE specialties, including dates, pistachios and various nuts, etc., Gu Xinxue swiped his card to buy special almonds and dates to eat when he got on the plane.

Just as they were about to continue wandering forward, Gu Xinxue received a call from the company's leader asking him to hurry back to the meeting place, there was something important!

The two had no choice but to trot all the way back to the assembly point before they even calmed down, and they saw Hu Kaiming, the leader of their company this time, coming over in a hurry.

"You can be regarded as back, here is Yang Le, director of the State Foreign Publishing Administration. ”

This Director Yang was wearing a white shirt and a black suit, and a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, looking like he was forty or fifty years old.

The full name of CIPG is China Foreign Languages Publishing and Distribution Bureau, also known as China International Publishing Group, which is a public institution directly under the central government and a press and publication organization mainly responsible for external publicity.

This book fair happened to be led by the Foreign Publishing Bureau, and the delegation of these publishing companies was formed.

Gu Xinxue was a little uneasy, and he said, "Director Yang, I don't know why you are looking for me?"

"Don't be nervous, I'm here for your help. I heard that Zhang Chu will go to Frankfurt on October 6 to attend the book launch, is there such a thing?"

"That's right, he's traveling around Europe right now, and he's going to join us when the time comes. ”

Director Yang showed a smile, "On the day of the opening ceremony of our China exhibition hall, I hope Zhang Chu can be there to support, after all, he is also one of us." Now he is the label of our Chinese writers overseas, if the façade does not come, then what is it like!"

Now Gu Xinxue's scalp is numb, this is not a good errand, he is just an editor, why should he bear these undeserved burdens?

He hesitated for a moment, and said: "I can't help him make the decision, his agency will also go to Frankfurt, otherwise I will give you the phone number of the agent Zhou Kang?"

The Foreign Languages Bureau can't directly manage the publishing house, Zhang Chu is the biggest writer in his hand, and he has a rod and scale in his heart to take care of Xinxue.

Although his personal relationship with Zhang Chu is not too deep, he also knows that this is a person who is afraid of trouble.

The smile on Director Yang's face gradually cooled, "Don't use the agent's phone, give me Zhang Chu's mobile phone number, and I'll tell him myself." Doesn't this person have any collective consciousness and collective honor? Is it so difficult to represent the country, and not let him donate money and materials, just come and show his face?"

Probably staying in the unit for a long time, usually in the domestic and foreign bureaus of literature and foreign affairs is not so powerful, now Director Yang probably thinks that going abroad is their territory, and they can let whoever they want.

When the Chinese publishing industry delegation made the list, they intentionally or unintentionally forgot about Zhang Chu.

Now I want to invite Zhang Chu over after seeing that Zhang Chu has received super high attention abroad with "The Da Vinci Code"!

Under the banner of collective honor, I want to fool others into doing things, how can it be so simple.

Director Yang didn't expect this editor to refuse his request, he never thought that a writer could have much influence.

This time, the Frankfurt Book Fair's China Pavilion is almost 600 square meters, and the talent show alone will not attract the attention of the media, but now there are very few writers who can hold up a lot of space overseas!

Of course, there are ready-made people who have to be used, and Yang Le himself knows very well that maybe the people stuffed in the delegation together are not as influential as Zhang Chu alone.

Many people want to sell copyrights here, how many can be comparable to Zhang Chu?

If you want the horses to run, but you don't give the horses grazing, the leader will oppress people even more than the capitalists.

The leaders of Nanhai Publishing Company couldn't help but feel worried when they saw such an ignorant Gu Xinxue, and kept giving their eyes to the side, so anxious!

"What's going on with this old Gu? Even if you agree, what's the matter, anyway, it's Zhang Chu who refuses, not us. ”

Gu Xinxue's heart was also cold, he just told Yang Le about Zhou Kang's phone, and now when he turned around, he saw so many eyes complaining and looking at jokes.

The schadenfreude of seeing other people's bad luck can be seen everywhere in the airport, and there are not many who really care about him.

Shi Zhiguo whispered on the side: "Now you are going to be hated by the leader, maybe he wants to make a fool of himself, but you mess things up!"

"So what? He won't let me leave my job anyway, and he won't let me fly back to Nanhai Island now. "Since Gu Xinxue has already done it, he doesn't bother with anything anymore.

The agent is behind the black pot anyway, as for whether Zhou Kang agrees or refuses, it is not in Gu Xinxue's consideration, he only hopes that this time the global launch of "The Da Vinci Code" can be held smoothly!
