Chapter 230: Attack's Father (Second Update)
Facing the mysterious Zhang Bowen, Zhang Chu was really curious, it is very difficult for ordinary people to get rich, but his father didn't make so much money in the past few decades, why did he suddenly open his mind now?
He sent a text message to his mother, planning to use the curve to save the country to ask, who knew that Ms. Chu Lan would not reply to the message at all, and it was estimated that she was obsessed with the mahjong career and could not extricate herself.
"Did you really win the lottery?"
Zhang Chu looked at the computer and muttered, should he get up tomorrow and see the news that a man in Jiangcheng has won tens of millions, and his luck is estimated to be against the sky.
Since he couldn't get an answer, he simply put his doubts in his heart, which sounded like a good thing anyway, and he didn't need to worry too much about it.
The only thing you need to worry about is what you should do if you get the more than 8 million back!
In his previous life, his savings did not exceed 80,000, and the continuous remuneration and copyright transaction fees in this life have made his current savings exceed 30 million.
Putting it in the bank can only keep depreciating, but you can take it out to buy funds, stocks, and bonds, and you don't know how to operate, Zhang Chu feels that there is probably only one way for a little turtle like himself, and that is to keep buying houses!
Although the state has been regulating the housing market, housing prices in those first-tier cities are still rising steadily, especially in Yanjing.
"In a few days, I will ask the agent to see if there is a better school district house, it will definitely not depreciate. ”
Ordinary housing may indeed fall, but the price of housing in the school district is rising rapidly, and there is no need to consider it.
The news he saw earlier said that the price of the school district in Yanjing's most popular primary school has risen from 300,000 square meters to 460,000 square meters, which is estimated to be able to buy a small house directly in second-tier cities.
The sky-high price of the house is of course unacceptable, but many parents are willing to spend money on their children's education, Zhang Chu feels that his money should be nothing!
Everything is inferior, only reading is high, or hurry up and write more, and making more money is the king.
Now, because the performance of "Sherlock" in several major English-speaking countries in Europe and the United States is not bad, Random House began to urge Zhang Chu to quickly translate the English version of "Life of Pi".
At this time, he is actually writing "Ghost Blowing Lantern: Exquisite Ancient City", and when he is tired of writing, he will come over to translate "Youth Pi", one English and one Chinese are not easy to confuse.
Writing two Chinese books at the same time, if you don't confuse the protagonist, it's really not called double opening!
According to the current progress, "Ghost Blows the Lantern" will definitely not be handed over to the publishing company until next year, that is, in the next two months.
He plans to wait until he finishes writing it before making a good change, and almost none of his previous works have enjoyed this treatment.
Sitting in a heated study and writing is one of life's great joys!
In the past, in the southern winter, electric hot water bottles, small sun stoves, etc. were useless, and I didn't want to put my hands out of my pockets, let alone read or write.
Now that the heating is coming out of the heating pipe, the whole room is as warm as spring, and Zhang Chu is just wearing a long sleeve, and there is no need to wear thicker clothes at all.
……
When the alarm clock woke Zhang Chu from his sleep, he turned his head to see that it was gloomy outside the window, and he didn't know if it was smog or rain.
Such a warm bed, but he had to break free and go to school, which was simply torture.
The cold wind was howling, the pedestrians on the street were wearing masks, Zhang Chu shivered, he was wearing a wool coat and was still a little cold.
After buying steamed buns, soy milk and a roasted sweet potato at the entrance of the community, he walked slowly towards the west gate, when the sky was not yet clear, and the street lamps guided the way.
"Well, look at the newspapers, are there any southern newspapers here?"
Usually rarely buy newspapers, Zhang Chu deliberately changed his path in the school, so that he could read the newspaper in the newsstand on campus and see what was going on with his father's big move.
Zhang Chu bought all the familiar newspapers, then put them in his satchel, and only took them out and unfolded them when he came to the classroom.
"China Youth Daily" browsed around and put it aside, "Yenching Morning Post" did not, "Huaxi Metropolis Daily" did not either, "People's Daily" did not seem to have it, and "Global Times" did not either.
This made him wonder, "Why don't you have any newspapers, where are you waiting to see the news?"
Zhang Chu folded the newspapers, and took out his mobile phone to search for the three words Zhang Bowen.
In the past, the search results generally gave the title of Zhang Chu's father or champion father, but this time I searched for an international news, which was actually posted at more than three o'clock in the morning, and there was no splash at all!
[CBS announced plans for a new drama next year, "Basic Deduction Law" will premiere next spring, starring British actor Jon Miller and actress Lucy Liu.
It is reported that the play is based on Conan Doyle's "Sherlock Holmes" series, and the original work is created by Chinese writer Zhang Bowen.
Set in late 19th-century London to modern-day New York, Sherlock Holmes, a gifted former Scottish Yard consultant who comes to New York to recuperate at a rehabilitation center due to drug addiction and serves as an adviser to the local police, befriends a withdrawal nurse named Jon Watson, and the two work together to solve many difficult cases. 】
This is just news posted by American drama bloggers, and the rest of the media has not reported it at all!
After three o'clock in the morning, who will have time to surf the Internet, unless it is American time.
Zhang Chu saw the familiar name and familiar plot, where is it still unclear, it turned out that CBS did not buy the copyright of "Detective Sherlock" from his own hands, and turned his head to buy his father's one!
"Basic Deduction Method" was a small suggestion made by Zhang Chu at the beginning, and then Zhang Bowen perfected it himself, and it was also published in the magazine "Reasoning of Years".
is also writing about the modern Sherlock Holmes, but "Basic Deduction" is even more deviant, turning the important character of Watson into a woman!
Of course, this idea has mixed reputations, and it was scolded by many fans at the beginning, and the light was also covered by "Sherlock".
What kind of male to female is what kind of Sherlock Holmes, indecently embarrassed to play Sherlock Holmes's number seven, it is really shameless to follow Zhang Chuxue, and there are too many traces of imitation and so on.
At that time, Zhang Bowen didn't use his real name to create at all, but the two films that also wrote the plot of modern Sherlock Holmes had completely different fates!
"Sherlock" has been flying high, publishing, suing, selling copyrights, and its global listing is in full swing.
And Zhang Chu thought that "Basic Deduction Law" died like that, but he didn't expect that after so many days, his father was stunned and held back a big news!
In fact, this is the time it takes to really create, the original "Basic Deduction Method" was just a short story, Zhang Bowen has slowly written it into a long story these days, and has been favored by CBS, and the effort and sweat in this are beyond imagination.
"No wonder, it's amazing!"
Zhang Chu had to admire his father, he just gave him a small suggestion, replacing Watson with a female image, and he never cared about it again.
But Zhang Bowen was stunned by his understanding of "The Complete Works of Sherlock Holmes" and his familiarity with suspense detectives, and he groped out the whole book little by little, which is completely different from the American dramas Zhang Chu saw in his previous life!
Zhang Chu himself wrote it according to the script of the British drama in his previous life, and he couldn't reach the level of Zhang Bowen at all.
Consider oneself inferior to another!
This is really a lot of accumulation, he just lacks so much inspiration, Zhang Chu is sincerely happy for his father.
Who would have thought that a middle-aged man who had been rejected for a long time would suddenly be adapted into a TV series by American television one day?
With such a big news, Zhang Bowen was able to bear not to show off to himself, probably because he wanted to surprise everyone.
It's so dreamy, it just doesn't seem like it's real!
