Chapter Ninety-Seven: Mother and Wife (II)

Li Mo turned his head and looked at this bookstore, which was not small, and he asked the fat manager again: "Excuse me, do you have Chinese books here?" ”

"Yes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½β€

Li Mo looked at the crowd again, there were also some Chinese in the crowd, and he said loudly: "There is that Chinese who knows more about Chinese classical books, that is, the hundred schools of thought, the Four Books and the Five Classics?" ”

Several Chinese raised their hands.

Li Mo clicked on a middle-aged man with eyes and said, "Please trouble that gentleman to find a few ancient books in the bookstore." ”

"Okay," the Chinese replied aloud in Chinese, and then slipped into the bookstore.

Li Mo said: "Don't hide it from you, the situation in my family may be worse than you think, none of my parents are literate, I don't mean English, but my mother tongue, George knows the situation, he can prove it." ”

George nodded on the side, and he said in his heart, to be precise, worse than you say!

"When I went to school, I started directly in the third grade, and before I read and read, I had some relatives in my family, and they had some books at home, and some children were in school, and through these books, I was given the first enlightenment knowledge. Of course, these books certainly don't support me in writing Jurassic Park. So I went with my grandmother to the city, where she had a younger brother. I was young and bought a lot of books, but my family was still poor and couldn't buy all the books. I took advantage of my age and was able to enter the libraries of the city and various universities, and copied a lot of materials. ”

George said on the side: "I can also prove it, I have also read the information notebook, but I can't understand which square words, I can only see that there are many things densely written on it, right...... There are many mathematical formulas, Ai Dai Hua, do you sit in front of the TV and watch, I can tell you out loud that Mo Li is not fake. ”

This meme may have been circulating for a long time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let me say one more thing, this novel is not my debut novel, and I have already published a book in China when I graduated from primary school. Mr. George can also testify. ”

"Yes, I've seen this book, but it's not as long as Jurassic Park."

Can two books be the same?

But Li Mo couldn't say it clearly, George just read it, and it was also unclear, and the Americans below didn't know it, this time it was not a book published at the age of ten, but a book published at the age of eight, and they began to call the cake seller again.

It happened that the Chinese came over with a book, and Li Mo said: "Trouble this compatriot, you come to the stage, choose a sentence or a paragraph from these ancient books, and let me interpret it." ”

A journalist asked, "What are these books?" ”

"What is your surname, sir?"

"Don't dare, my surname is Hu."

"Mr. Hu, can you explain to this gentleman, what book is in your hand?"

"Yes, these books are the oldest books in China, and the text is relatively concise, and only those who are highly educated can read it."

"Thank you, Mr. Hu, please find a sentence from these books and write it on the blackboard with chalk."

"Okay," the middle-aged man surnamed Hu rummaged through these books, searched and searched, and found a sentence in the Book of Changes: See the dragons without a head, Ji.

Don't think that these six words are simple, if you change them to ordinary people, they can't interpret them clearly, even if it's a translation on Du Niang, it's not accurate.

Li Mo hesitated slightly, not that he couldn't interpret this sentence, but pondered, whether it could be interpreted in English, thought about it, and had to forget it, the simplest, such as this line, literal translation is impossible, it must be paraphrased, whether it is translated into a knot, or translated as element, it doesn't feel too accurate.

Let's let the following reporters have a headache, he simply changed to his native language: "This is from the Qiangua, Confucius repaired the "Book of Changes", obviously he could not tell fortunes, in fact, the "Book of Changes" said a lot of truths, and it is very dialectical, this is what Confucius valued." For example, the seven hexagrams, the first one is the hidden dragon, this dragon is not necessarily a dragon, it can refer to the development of something, or people, or the candidate countries at that time. When the strength is weak, it is necessary to lie dormant and accumulate one's strength. ”

"The second is to see the dragon in the field, the benefit of the adult, the strength is slightly stronger, you can try to do things, the adult is not an adult, you can be an adult, you can also be a career, as a career. The third is that the gentleman works all day long, and he is not to blame. Although the strength is a little stronger, it is not really strong, and we must work diligently and stick to the right path. The fourth line is to jump into the abyss, and there is no blame. There will be great difficulties on the way forward, but because we stick to the right path, there will be no danger and we will be able to get through it safely. The fifth line is the flying dragon in the sky, and it is good to see the lord. At this time, the power has become very strong and can make great achievements. When one's own strength grows to a certain point, one must not be complacent and act recklessly, otherwise it will inevitably lead to major disasters. Guys, do you think it's still used for fortune telling? ”

"The last line is this group of dragons without a leader, Ji, there is a sentence in the back of "Elephant", Tiande, not the head. Fellow citizens, you should know that Confucius was more protective of the Zhou royal family, and the competition for the five hegemons not only destroyed the Spring and Autumn order led by the Zhou royal family, but also threatened the security of the relatively weak Lu state. Therefore, this Tiande is not Tiande, but the Zhou royal family, but the Great Dao. If you become a man, even if you are an emperor, you can't think that you are powerful and stand on this avenue. Including the Confucianism he cultivated himself, he did not want to be introduced by later generations to overthrow a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone, but to contend with a hundred schools of thought and let a hundred flowers bloom in order to promote each other. ”

Does it make sense?

In the international environment of this era, there is a great reason!

The Chinese present were dumbfounded, regardless of whether Li Mo was right or not, but at this age, talking about "Yi" is really incredible.

The Chinese surnamed Hu stayed for a while, raised his hand, and clapped his hands violently.

Li Mo then switched to English: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am still very weak in English, and my mother tongue is my strength. Maybe I have a certain talent for understanding words. In this way, I can answer what the gentleman just said, where did I learn the knowledge? Maybe a few years ago, I lacked all kinds of conditions, but with the conditions, I could be caught by luck. ”

The people below slapped together again.

Li Mo said a lot in Chinese, they couldn't understand it, but looking at the expressions of the Chinese present, they knew that Li Mo must have said some great interpretations, otherwise there would be no such expressions.

"I mean, by the way, in my heart, my motherland is my mother, who gave birth to me and raised me, and no matter how poor it is, I will love her. Ladies and gentlemen, if your mother were poor, would you not love her? On an occasional occasion, I heard something about your country, and as I learned about it, I learned that it was so powerful and rich. At that time, I thought of it as my wife, and I loved it. ”

It's good to praise the United States, and the slap is louder.

"It just so happens that my mother has a very close relationship with my wife, which makes me feel very warm. Of course, my mother is very poor, but can you maintain my childish self-esteem? Speaking of this, Li Mo patted his thin chest: "I hope you, don't mention it again, if you ask, please ask about the topic of books." ”

To hell with me, wife.

America is not a beautiful rich wife, but a super-powerful shrew, the biggest bully on the planet in the future, a scoundrel, a ruffian.

This has nothing to do with Li Mo, only the stupid ordinary people in West Asia took the initiative to cooperate with the US military, sent Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi to the gallows, and then went to the gallows themselves.

Li Mo said this, or to make money from Lao Mei, and the other thing is...... Avoid unnecessary shaming.

At this time, in the minds of Americans, China's status was like that of India later, poor and backward. Of course, much better than India, where a large group of people have low IQ and laziness, and the army does not have much combat effectiveness and, ridiculously, is also super blind and arrogant.

Obama desperately wanted to support them to deal with China, but he couldn't help them even with the strength to feed, and seeing this situation, Okuhei had no choice but to go into battle shirtless.

At least they dare to look down on China, but they dare not really despise China.

The other thing is that on the one hand, they look down on China superly, and on the other hand, they know that they need China to assist the United States and deal with the Soviet Union.

If Li Mo does not take the initiative to uncover this topic, maybe a reporter will directly ask later, how poor and backward is your China now, and how do you feel when you see us in the United States?

The group slapped lightly a few more times.

If you are an ally, you will be empathetic, isn't filial piety? Is it wrong to be patriotic? Shouldn't it be given the dignity of the Motherland?

A reporter asked, "I heard that you plan to write a trilogy?" ”

"It's not an intention, this set of books will definitely write a trilogy, and there will be more and more powerful dinosaurs in the future, and the background will get bigger and bigger."

What background, this is creativity, Li Mo will not say.

"When will you finish the second part?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, as you may have heard, there is an important clause in my contract with Bantam Books not to divulge my home address, or other relevant information. The main reason is that I am afraid of delaying my studies, and if I want to write a good novel, I must master more knowledge. For example, chaos theory, because I don't understand it halfway, I can only pass by and don't dare to write more. If I had mastered more knowledge, the book might have been more fleshed out. That's why it's very important for me to learn. If you want to study well, you must have a good environment. That's why I don't want you to disturb my hometown. Because of studying, I don't know when to write the next book, learning is the first, and writing is the second. And the next book has nothing to do with dinosaurs either, it's a different one. ”

"May I ask what the book is about?"

"This book is about what happened on a train."

"The story on the train?" Some reporters were disappointed.

"It's not the story of the train you think, but once I saw the train passing in front of me, and I saw the smoke coming out of the front of the train, and suddenly I thought about one of the bad consequences of industrialization, which is global warming."

Everyone is forced again, what is the connection between trains and global warming?

"I'm already working on this book, and I'll be able to finish it about winter break, but it's going to have to be revised and it's probably going to be published by the end of next year, but it's still a science fiction novel full of destructive power...... Lord, forgive me for my destructive thoughts. Li Mo pretended to exaggerate, and stroked his chest again. Everyone watched his actions and chuckled again, but the readers behind him had a light in their eyes, destroying well, the more destruction, the more we like it!
