Chapter 100: Ambition

In the face of Xiaoying's naïve questions, Zhuang Yan was already overwhelmed, so he could only interrupt the awkward conversation between the two by continuing to tell her stories. Xiaoying also seemed to see that her problems made Zhuang Yan more difficult, so she didn't dwell on this topic anymore, and obediently lay on the sofa and listened to Zhuang Yan's story.

told the story to Xiaoying until more than nine o'clock in the evening, Zhuang Yan saw that the time was not early, so he urged Xiaoying to take a bath quickly, and go to bed after taking a bath.

Fortunately, although the little girl is young, there is no problem with taking a bath by herself, but the height of the water valve in the bathroom is too high, and the little girl can't reach it, so she can only open it for her first, and then turn off the water for her after she takes a bath.

After arranging Xiaoying to sleep, Zhuang Yan did not go back to the room to sleep, but ran to the study to prepare to revise the first few chapters of "The Catcher in the Rye" written this morning.

said that it was a revision, but in fact, Zhuang Yan put all his attention on checking information on the Internet. If you want to make targeted changes to "Catcher in the Rye", then Zhuang Yan must know what is the difference between the United States of this era and the United States of the previous generation.

He needs to understand people's living standards, cultural backgrounds, and everyday language.

The Internet is very developed, and compared with the previous life, the information in this life is relatively open, and there is no such thing as a "wall", and Chinese netizens can browse foreign websites and forums anytime and anywhere without any obstacles.

In other words, the world has achieved great unity on the Internet, and there is no regional website at all. For example, the website of the literary and artistic world, as the world's largest literary website, only needs to switch the language section, you can see the books posted by writers in other languages on the Internet, and you can also communicate with the works.

There is also the "face-to-face" website, which is also the largest social networking site in the world, through which people from any country in the world can make friends with netizens from other countries.

In this era, not only is the distance between people infinitely shortened, but the distance between countries is also infinitely reduced.

Therefore, it is not difficult for Zhuang Yan to understand the situation in the United States.

Of course, no matter how developed the Internet is, it is not too realistic to want to intuitively understand the United States through some news and information on the Internet.

When he was writing a book before, Zhuang Yan wrote about the football game at Pansy Middle School and wondered if the sport had been introduced to the United States at this time. However, when I checked on the Internet today, I found that rugby became popular in the United States earlier than the original world, and there are many people in China who play rugby, and even countries have rugby events at various levels.

When looking at rugby information, Zhuang Yan naturally paid attention to more information about Chinese sports.

To Zhuang Yan's surprise, China's national sport today turned out to be table tennis – and football!

Unlike the weak Chinese football in the previous life, the ranking of Chinese football in this world is as high as ninth in the world, second only to the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain and other countries.

In addition to the ranking of Chinese football that surprised Zhuang Yan, the status of British football also surprised Zhuang Yan. Everyone knows in the last life that China and Britain are two countries, one is the inventor of football and the other is the inventor of modern football. Two ancient countries in football, but the development of football is not very good, and some people even jokingly call the British national team the European Chinese team, which shows that the status of China and England is not high in modern football.

However, due to economic reasons, the Premier League has developed very well, which has also become a fig leaf for English football.

Of course, there are other reasons why the British national team has been disadvantaged in the tournament in the last edition, such as Wales.

When Zhuang Yan saw this information, he felt a little strange, he should have been happy, after all, Chinese football becoming stronger and bigger is something that more than a billion people in China expected in the previous life, and Zhuang Yan should be honored.

But Zhuang Yan felt a little unreal, because it didn't seem to have much to do with him. Every time this happens, he feels that he has not really integrated into this world, and at the same time he will think of another world that is truly his own.

In fact, it is also for this reason that Zhuang Yan is so keen to promote the dreams he recorded, because when people talk about "Alive" and "Metamorphosis", he will have a moment of sudden thinking that he has returned to his own world.

But starting today, Zhuang Yan began to have more ambitions, he felt that he should not just be a porter of words, he should leave something of his own in this world.

The re-creation of "The Catcher in the Rye" will be a starting point for him to realize his ambitions, starting from this book, he will gradually add some of his own things to the book, until one day in the future, maybe he can also really complete a book that is completely his own.

Thinking of this little ambition that has been bred recently, Zhuang Yan himself laughed, he was originally a construction engineer, but he didn't expect the world to change, he actually became a somewhat famous writer, who would have imagined this?

After completing the phased work in the study, Zhuang Yan returned to the room, and on the way back to the room, he also glanced at the carpet at the door, where the slippers that Chen Jiaqing took off when he left in the morning were still in place, indicating that she had not returned.

Zhuang Yan looked at his watch, it was already more than twelve o'clock, and in the second half of the night, Chen Jiaqing had not come back, she was working later and later.

She didn't say anything when she went out during the day, but Zhuang Yan could guess that it should be for the record, and it seemed that the record company was very optimistic about her and decided not to give her a single, but to prepare an EP. So because of this matter, she has been very busy lately.

Shaking her head, Zhuang Yan decided not to care about it, Chen Jiaqing naturally had her own pursuits and plans.

When he returned to the room and fell on the bed, it was estimated that in less than ten seconds, Zhuang Yan felt that his two eyelids were as heavy as two iron doors, and he couldn't open them at all.

Then he felt like a big hole in the mattress under him, and he slowly fell down.

I don't know how long it has been, it may be a second, or an hour, or even a year, in a dark that cannot be touched, time is completely unscaled.

I only knew that at the last moment, Zhuang Yan's eyes lit up, and the endless wheat field swayed his torso wantonly in front of him.

A path was carved out from the middle of the wheat field, and Holden, a young man in a peaked cap, slowly came to Zhuang Yan from the path.

The boy pouted, flicked the brim of his hat at the back of his head, and said, "In Pansy, we always have to eat the same dish on Saturday night......"
