Chapter 181: Duan Xueqing's call
Worried about the work of translation, Yang Guo sat with Fang Beibei for a while, and saw that they were having fun and had nothing to do with themselves for the time being, so he ran back to the study to continue working.
The door of the study was not closed, and from time to time there were Qiqi's excited screams and Fang Beibei's uncontrollable laughter. However, Yang Guo dived into the sea of words, and the noise in the living room was inaudible.
"Fatigue of Life and Death" is a work full of imagination, Mr. Mo Yan uses the ancient chapter hui style, through the eyes of various animals, different perspectives to depict the difficult changes in Chinese rural society for more than 50 years, and sublimates the understanding of suffering in the carnival of suffering.
The biggest problem Yang Guo faced in translating this book was not how to understand the book. He is a child who grew up in the countryside and walked from the countryside to the big city, and he is no stranger to some of the difficulties of rural life. But the question is how to embody it in another language!
Direct translation definitely won't work! It may be that Yang Guo's translated works can be read with relish by a Chinese who learns Swedish, but for Swedes, they don't know enough about China, and reading it is nothing more than chewing wax, which is tasteless.
There is a way to transform it into the writing method of Western magical realistic novels, but this also has shortcomings, others can indeed understand it, but the strong Chinese customs and culture contained in this book are gone! So how does it differ from the other novels in the competition?
Yang Guo doesn't want to be sloppy with his translated works, which is related to his professional ethics and personal beliefs! So his previous translations have been intermittent and bumpy!
However, today, Yang Guo's translation is going exceptionally smoothly, and many of the problems that plagued him before seem to have been solved! Faintly, Yang Guo seemed to see a path that could be balanced and compatible between the two methods!
All of a sudden, it was amazing.
In fact, many people will have such an experience: when they are frustrated or in love, their heads are messy, like a ball of cotton wool, and they can't concentrate on anything; But if it is a happy event, the spirit is enough at once, and any difficult thing can be done easily.
I don't know if it's because Fang Beibei's mood has become bright and light, Yang Guo feels that now he is surging with thoughts and thoughts, and one character after another, paragraph by paragraph, scrambled out of his head. Fingers pressed on the keyboard, tapping gently, the rhythm was bright, and the sound was connected into a string, listening to the ears of Yang Guo, who had a very poor sense of musicality, it was no less than the sound of nature.
This kind of pleasure of translating articles is so cool that I can't stop it!
I don't know how long it took, Yang Guo's code was happily written, the roots of his hair suddenly ached, and his head was pulled back by his hair. Yang Guo suddenly woke up from his state of preoccupation and distraction.
Kiki's smug laughter rang out in his ears. Turning his head, Qiqi's innocent smiling face came into view, and when he looked up, Yang Guo saw Fang Beibei, who couldn't help but smile and apologize.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Fang Beibei hurriedly said, "I came in mainly to see what you were doing, and I disturbed you!" โ
Yang Guo also smiled happily, he stood up, turned around and pinched Qiqi's little face, and said with a smile: "It's okay!" I just had time to take a break. โ
"Are you translating into English?" Fang Beibei pointed to the screen and said, "I can't read a word, it's so shocking!" โ
Yang Guo was stunned for a moment, and said with a laugh: "It's not English!" If it's English, how can you not understand a word, you see there is not even a verb of be here! โ
"Phew!" Fang Beibei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought I was incorrigible. โ
"Haha, it's from Swedish, it's normal that you can't read it." Yang Guo said with a smile.
"You still know Swedish?" Fang Beibei asked in surprise, "That's not right!" Where is the Swedish language major in our school? โ
"It's true that no, I learned it myself." Yang Guo explained.
"People are more popular than people!" Fang Beibei sighed, "It's so hard for me to even learn English, you can learn Swedish by yourself!" โ
Yang Guo comforted her and said, "Don't be presumptuous! People have different talents, you see, you learn math so easily, and I want to sleep when I see math problems. โ
After chatting for a while, Fang Beibei followed Qiqi back to the living room, and Yang Guo continued to translate, he planned to strike while the iron was hot today, translate more, and see if he could summarize some experiences.
When it was almost five o'clock, Fang Beibei looked at his phone, and then looked at the sky outside, wondering if he was going to quit and go back to school.
At this time, the music of Sky Castle suddenly sounded in the room!
Although the song "City in the Sky" is very good, it is so abrupt, Fang Beibei was still startled. Looking for the sound, Fang Beibei finally saw the mobile phone on the dining table in the dining room.
However, because it rang for a long time, it hung up automatically, and Yang Guo didn't react at all.
Fang Beibei shook his head and sat back, but as soon as his ass touched the stool, the bell rang again. At the end of Yang Guo's investment, it is estimated that he will not hear it a few more times! Fang Beibei simply stood up and prepared to take the phone to Yang Guo.
The mobile phone was placed on the dining table facing up, and the lit screen had the caller's information on the top: Duan Xueqing.
Fang Beibei's hand froze, this name should be a woman! And it looks like it's so fairy.
Just paused in the air, Fang Beibei picked up his mobile phone and walked towards Yang Guo's study. When I walked in, the phone had been disconnected again. She lightly touched Yang Guo, whose eyes were only staring at the screen.
"Huh? What's wrong? Yang Guo came back to his senses, looked at Fang Beibei and asked.
"Someone just called you and called twice, I don't know if it's urgent." Fang Beibei handed the phone to Yang Guo.
"Oh, oh! I didn't even pay attention. Yang Guo hurriedly took the mobile phone and pulled away the missed call just now, it was Duan Xueqing calling.
Yang Guo looked at Fang Beibei, a little hesitant in his heart, but still pressed the return button.
Fang Beibei was not interested in staying in the room to listen to Yang Guo's call, she turned around and went back to the living room.
Not long after, Yang Guo walked out, went into the bedroom and took out a coat, and said to Fang Beibei while draping it: "Beibei, can you help me take care of Qiqi first, my friend has something to ask me to go out and help, and I'll be back in a while." โ
Fang Beibei opened his mouth, hesitated, but nodded.
Yang Guo smiled: "Don't worry, I'll be back soon!" And, when I come back, we'll have dinner together! โ
"Hmm." Fang Beibei responded briefly, watched Yang Guo open the door and go out, his back disappearing behind the door.
(Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation, let's take a ticket and smash the cold door!) โงโฝโฆ๏ผ
