Chapter 804: Coming Here [Second Watch Asking for Votes]
It is not only Chinese tourists who go abroad to spend the Spring Festival in other countries, but also tourists from other countries who intentionally or unintentionally choose China as their tourist destination.
They know that the Spring Festival is the most important festival of the year, so they want to take advantage of this festival to feel the rich and warm festive atmosphere.
Louis, Brown, Catherine, and Ryan specifically asked the Chinese students in their previous class before choosing to come to China at this time.
They were both Britons who had just graduated and started working, and they had formed a strong friendship when they were studying at King's College London.
This time, the choice of annual leave here is partly due to Zhang Chu's influence, and most of the reason is because I am curious about this distant eastern country.
Xie Hongxin did not hold a sign with the names of Louis and others, but printed out the emblem of King's College, which is more eye-catching!
"Xie, you look very handsome, does Chinese food still have such a role?"
Catherine opened her arms very enthusiastically and gave Xie Hongxin a hug and a veneer gift.
The two of them used to be classmates, and they were people who completed several projects together, so they were very familiar with each other.
Ryan, as Catherine's boyfriend, was not jealous, and also hugged Xie Hongxin, and then stretched out his fist and hammered his chest, showing the man's friendship.
"I was so excited when you told me that you were coming to Yanjing for the Spring Festival!
Xie Hongxin deliberately drove an off-road vehicle this time, just to be able to put the suitcases of his former classmates in.
"China is so far from what I imagined! If I hadn't seen English, I would have thought I was in New York or Los Angeles. Louis was almost leaning on the passenger window, greedily watching the buildings and cars around him.
Although he made up for the new era of China in YouTube before coming to China, he was still surprised by the speed of development!
Maybe it's because he often sees these scenes, Xie Hongxin is no longer surprised, "It's not a big deal now, we will feel the wonder of time after we go to the city later." Ancient and modern blend harmoniously. ”
"By the way, why did you think to travel to China?"
For example, Europeans will go to the seaside for vacation in winter, such as the Mediterranean coast, the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean islands, etc., and few choose to come to China.
Ryan shrugged: "We originally planned to go to Paris, but unfortunately our friends over there told us that the whole city seems to have been occupied by you Chinese." So we just decided to come to China and have a look, and I have a favorite writer in China. ”
"Who?"
"Zhang Chu!"
Catherine pronounced in an awkward tone and said excitedly: "I like his works very much, whether it is "Sherlock" or "Life of Pi", it is very good. Recently, I heard that there is a very good work, which still has the same name as the Beatles song, but I really don't know when it will be released. ”
Sherlock Holmes is a superhero in the eyes of the British, and the hit of two seasons of the TV series and the million-copy sales of the same name have helped Zhang Chu accumulate a lot of fame.
At the same time, "Life of Pi" also won the Booker Prize, the highest literary award in the English writing industry, in the United Kingdom, which left an impression on Zhang Chu in the minds of British literature and art lovers.
Subsequently, "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli" indulged another part of people who like to study history, and "The Da Vinci Code" made most British people crazy with an unprecedented impact!
Not to mention that foreigners go to the UK to visit the Rosslyn Church inside, even many British people only know that there is this place after seeing Zhang Chu.
Many factors came together, and Catherine and others appeared in the city of Yanjing.
Xie Hongxin laughed silently, he had just finished arguing with someone about a bug in "The Da Vinci Code" not long ago, but he didn't expect that his British classmates were also reading the same book, and they also chose to come to China to play because of this writer.
"It's really an excellent work, and it's more than you can imagine. ”
"Thanks. I have a small question, the pyramid in front of the Louvre seems to have been built by a Chinese, right? What did the master named Bei Jinming think after reading this book?"
This is not only a question in Louis's mind, but also a matter of confusion in the minds of many readers.
Now that "The Da Vinci Code" is so popular that it has been adapted into a movie by Disney and filmed, it makes no sense to say that Pei Jinming does not know about this work.
Such a master architect took great pains and brains to design the pyramid in front of the Louvre, a building with mixed reputation, but in Zhang Chu's "The Da Vinci Code", it was alluded to as a member of the Xunshan Hermitage.
He even took the opportunity to build a pyramid and put Magdalene's coffin in the basement of the Louvre, which is really a very interesting hypothesis!
Now many tourists who visit the Louvre are misled by Zhang Chu's book and go on a pilgrimage to the small pyramid.
It's been almost six months since the release, but Mr. Bei Jinming didn't come out to say anything, full of everyone's demeanor!
In fact, being placed in the Xunshan Hermitage is also an affirmation of Mr. Pei Jinming, and all the people in this hermitage are big people, like Newton, Leonardo da Vinci and others, which is really an honor.
Faced with Louis's question, Xie Hongxin was speechless!
How does this make people answer?
Obviously, this is not Zhang Chu deliberately elevating the status of his compatriots, but just integrating the pyramid into the plot as a plot, and the article does not explain that Mr. Pei Jinming is a member of the Xunshan Hermitage Order.
Just hinting at it in every way!
If he was not a member of the monastic, why did he know such a secret?
Why did you help the monastic to design such a miraculous building that surpassed everyone's expectations?
"Why don't we personally ask Mr. Pei Jinming or Zhang Chu for their opinions?"
The bell must be tied to the bell, and it is better to throw this problem to the two parties.
Ryan proposed, "Otherwise, let's do a campaign of 10,000 petitions on Twitter or Facebook." Let everyone answer our call and send this question to them, so that they will get the answer. ”
There are many similar activities abroad, and they have also received miraculous results, I don't know if this time it will work.
Louis praised: "I think this method is feasible, we can make a short video and post it on your Chinese network, so that people who like "The Da Vinci Code" can unite!"
