Chapter 159: Insight
Although translating such a literary work that involves the mysteries of life is indeed a very self-control thing, the translation process must be like the content of the book, with twists and turns, climaxes, and cannot be stopped at all.
But Amara was very sure that as long as he finished translating "The Young Woman**", he would be able to scrape together enough money to buy a house of his own in Dili.
Generally speaking, no matter how great a literary and artistic work is, some people will like it, some people will dislike it, and those who disagree will often have all kinds of tearing wars.
But there is only one kind of literature and art, and people's opinions have always been the same, and that is pornographic literature and art.
Post a book or a movie on the Internet, and some people will say that the work you recommend is not good. But if it's a recommended adult work, the following message will always be "The landlord is a good person, mailbox xxxxx"......
Due to the needs of the human population for millions of years, the market is far larger than many people think. It is estimated that even in Huaxia, where trading is illegal, the market size of trading can reach 500 billion yuan.
As a result, the consumption of family planning appliances, venue rental, cosmetics, clothing, etc., is as high as tens of billions.
As for the online pornography industry, it is also a market size of tens of billions, much larger than online literature......
Timor-Leste's cultural and media industry, although not developed, is the same as human needs. As long as "The Young Woman" is translated, it can definitely be exchanged for a considerable income.
As for whether this income is legal, Amara doesn't have the leisure to think about it, and the government doesn't care much anyway.
After reading a few paragraphs, he picked up a pen and paper and prepared to start translating.
"Let's get started. ”
However, at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door: "Amara, hurry up and open the door!"
Amara was stunned: "This is ...... The voice of the editor-in-chief?"
Strange, why did he get here? Isn't it said that he was also prosecuted?
Confused, Amara got up and went over to open the door.
The editor-in-chief, who looked a little embarrassed and a little excited, grabbed Amara's arm: "Amara, you have to save me!"
Amara was a little confused: "How can I save you?"
The editor-in-chief hurriedly said: "Someone just found me and told me that the big man who bought Jaco Island wants to see you!"
Amara's face turned white: "Could it be...... They're going to settle accounts with me?"
The terrifying scene of the company being completely blocked in one day is still vivid in his mind, and he deeply feels the terrifying power of that Chinese businessman.
If the other party wants to rectify him, he is a small reporter, and I am afraid that he will not even have a chance to escape, which makes Amara's panic for a while.
The editor-in-chief waved his hand: "No, no, no, it is said that the big man in China appreciates your article and wants to communicate with you." ”
Amara relaxed a little, but still didn't believe it: "Is there such a thing?"
"Oh, if people want to fix you, can they still use this method?" the editor-in-chief hurriedly persuaded.
"Didn't you tell me that Huaxia allusion before, saying that an ancient Chinese king named Cao Cao caught a talented man who wrote an article to scold him, not only did not kill him, but also gave him an official job. ”
Amara corrected: "It's Cao Cao, not Cao Cao." ”
"Almost...... If you go, you will definitely be fine, but if you don't, you may anger that powerful Huaxia person, and the consequences will not be good. ”
Amara's face changed for a while, and finally said, "Okay, then I'll go and see ......"
......
To Amara's surprise, when he rushed to Lautem Province and met the Chinese man who changed the fate of his life, everything was so ordinary.
It was just an ordinary afternoon, in an ordinary small villa in São Paulo, he met Lin Han, who seemed to be a year or two older than him.
"Hello, sir. ”
Amara looked reserved and said in Chinese.
Lin Han was a little surprised: "Can you speak Chinese?" ”
Amara sat down in her seat, nodded and said, "Yes, I am very interested in Chinese and Chinese civilization, and I have translated some Chinese ones." ”
"Tell me, maybe I've seen it. ”
Amara hesitated for a moment, and said a little embarrassed: "****", "****", "*******" ......"
Listening to this string of titles, Lin Han smiled awkwardly: "It's a pity, I haven't read any of them." ”
"I believe in you. ”
Lin Han coughed twice and changed the subject: "I have already read the article where you caught the knife, can you tell me your opinion?"
Amara was stunned: "My opinion?"
"That's right, just talk about it. But what you say next will determine a lot of things, like your future. ”
Amara's heart tightened, but her mind became active.
After a while, he began to speak slowly, "Hmm...... The company I worked for was mainly behind the Republican Party and related East Timorese companies. As far as I know, the Republican Party is one of the main political parties in East Timor, which you have snubbed out. ”
At the behest of Lin Han, Chen Zhixian made frequent contacts with the Socialist Party of East Timor and the Democratic Socialist Party, and promised up to 1% of the shares of oil companies.
The other major political parties, especially the Republican Party of East Timor, which is now more powerful, have also had a slight interest, but relatively smaller.
After all, the "Socialist Party" and the "Democratic Socialist Party" know their nature just by listening to their names, and they can be said to have a natural affinity with Huaxia, so of course Lin Han has to hook up with them more.
Lin Han said: "So, this report reflects some dissatisfaction within the Republican Party?"
Amara hesitated: "That's the case, of course, there are related enterprises. ”
"You know, there are companies that are branded as traditional Timorese culture, and even their products are essentially peddling the concept of Timorese traditional culture......"
"These companies are natural right-wing political forces, resisting modern civilization, resisting scientific progress, resisting change. Amara spoke eloquently, her tone gradually deepening.
"And they have a lot of inextricable and inextricable ties with the Indonesian forces, and what they want most is to be able to restore some of the old order, and even make East Timor a part of Indonesia again......"
Lin Han became even more interested: "As the actual author of the article, you don't seem to have a good impression of these people. ”
Amara was silent for a moment: "These things are closely related to Timor-Leste's history and culture, economic development, geopolitical pattern, and international environment. ”
"It belongs to the course of history, and the personal struggle of a young journalist cannot change it in the slightest. All I know is that you get paid to work, and you have to live with a salary......"
