Chapter 1146: An Unsafe Year
In the early morning of the third day of Fang Beibei's birthday, a plane flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing suddenly disappeared, and no one knew that the Malaysia Airlines plane numbered MH370 had disappeared without a trace, and the world's attention to the rescue operation had not been able to achieve a single bit of success for several months.

All the 239 people on the plane, including the crew, were lost, or they had already been buried in the boundless sea with the plane. Perhaps, people prefer to believe that it has passed through some wormhole, and that the lost people are just alive and well on another plane.
When this incident came out, Yang Guo and Fang Beibei, who had just returned to Yangcheng by plane on the evening of March 7, broke out in a cold sweat. While sighing, I can't help but be glad that in the face of these huge natural disasters, it's really good to be alive!
In fact, the Kunming railway station incident was only the beginning of a tragic year in 2014. In April, the Stick Country Years passenger liner sank into the sea on live television footage, killing more than 300 passengers, an event that shocked the world again after MH370.
Of course, the most worrying thing is the violent and terrorist cases such as the Kunming Railway Station that endanger public safety and cause a large number of casualties to innocent people.
In May, a terrorist attack occurred at the Urumqi train station, in which terrorists not only slashed and killed people with knives, but also detonated bombs, killing one person and injuring nearly 80 others.
However, just five days later, another slashing incident occurred at Yangcheng Railway Station. This time, although it was in Yangcheng, Yang Guo was not a superman and was not able to save the world again, but Yangcheng had already practiced a complete anti-terrorism mechanism to subdue the bad guys instead of Superman, which only caused injuries to six people, and did not cause particularly serious consequences.

However, the fight against terrorism is far from over, and in Western Xinjiang, in addition to the terrorist attack at the Yuetou Railway Station, there have been two more serious cases in the aftermath. Among them, two cars without license plates deliberately collided and exploded in the downtown area, killing as many as 39 people and injuring more than 90 people.
2014 is destined to be extraordinary, in addition to the above, there are various earthquakes, including the plane crash that continued in the second half of the year, and the Ebola virus epidemic that affected the whole world in 2014.
Even, in the last hour of 2014, at the New Year's Eve site on the Bund in the magic capital, there was a world-famous stampede, resulting in the death of nearly forty people.
All this, under the repeated reports of the news, seems to be shrouded in ominous clouds in 2014. People are panicking, and no one knows if they will suddenly encounter an accident.
It is precisely because of this series of disaster news that has attracted people's attention that after Yang Guo returned to Yangcheng, he only accepted a few interviews that could not be denied, and once again withdrew from the focus of the news media.
It is precisely because of the importance of the state that the focus of Yang Guo's work has gradually shifted from teaching and translation to the study of word splitting. Of course, it is not that Yang Guo will stop working as a lecturer and translator, but that his translation and publication is not as frequent as before, at most one book a month, and he focuses on the translation of Grandma Monroe's works.
This year, there are still many authors who ask for help, and there are even some pseudo-writers who pay attention to false names and want Yang Guo to help them translate their works through some official channels. Although the school helped Yang Guo block most of the firepower, some of them were really big names that even Chen Zongdai couldn't refuse.
Fortunately, Yang Guo held the gold medal for avoiding death, and the No. 1 leader instructed the veteran university scholars from the Ministry of Education and the research working group to support him, and Yang Guo was really not afraid of their coercion.
It's just that if the word splitting method wants to be perfected enough to be popularized and used, it still needs a lot of time to supplement and improve, and Yang Guo estimates that the time for this semester is only enough. But Yang Guo's performance has been praised by those university scholars in the research working group, if it weren't for Dongshan University's refusal to release people and Yang Guo's reluctance to leave, there might be another poaching storm.
Yang Guo's translated works have decreased, but many of the books published by the new translation road have increased. Compared with last year, this year's new translation road has launched more than 100 new translations every month, although the quality may not be comparable to Yang Guo's translation, but it is indeed much better than last year.
It's all because of the increase in translators!
In addition to the talents cultivated by the cooperation between New Translation and the Cinda translation platform, there are also many translators who specialize in literary translation.
In the first year, people were waiting and watching, fearing that Xinyilu would be a flash in the pan, but after Xinyilu shocked the entire Chinese publishing industry with its unparalleled performance, people began to believe in the strength and vision of Xinyilu.
The system of translators' participation in sales sharing promoted by Yang Guo has become an important condition for attracting many excellent translators. Although this system is the only one in China, it has indeed brought about a reform impact on the traditional translation industry.
The translators of Xinyilu earned an average annual income of 300,000 yuan through sales sharing, which was still based on the fact that the level of most translators was not high enough at that time! This kind of income situation has made many translators with real talents and learning hot, and they do not hesitate to leave the publishing house they have cooperated with for a long time and join the emerging New Translation Road Publishing House.
This situation has actually had a great impact on traditional publishing houses. Even, many publishers in the industry are trying to unite and block the new translation road.
It's a pity that Xinyilu does not follow their traditional publishing channels, the focus of business is abroad rather than at home, and their manuscripts are very sufficient.
It's a joke to want to block the new translation!
Even if they use intrigues and tricks, in this place in Guangdong Province where Zheng Mingsheng is covered, who can use any indiscriminate means against his daughter?
Yang Guo and Zheng Yujie are both fighting for their own careers, and Fang Beibei is not weak. Although she didn't have the guidance of her predecessors, and even Yang Guo's help, she thoughtfully didn't let Yang Guo take time to run around with her, so she drove her Beetle by herself, and in March and April, she actually pulled up a pet hospital of a large scale.
In terms of hardware, the pet hospital that has spent a lot of money has been renovated and configured, and in terms of manpower, the pet hospital has also signed more than a dozen veterinarians to take care of stray cats and dogs in the rescue center before it opened.
The veterinarian team includes older, more experienced veterinarians as well as young people who have just graduated from school. While ensuring the calmness of the team, it also retains the vigor and vitality of young people, which is very necessary for pet hospitals, guests and pets!
The opening time of the pet hospital has been chosen, which is the third day of Qiqi's birthday, that is, the beginning of the May Day Golden Holiday. Before opening, Fang Beibei also had to work with Chen Anlan to study the new publicity plan in the mobile Internet era!
