Chapter 24: The Little Prince
After making an agreement with Zheng Shoudao, Qin Ge talked to the other three on the phone again, and then sat in front of the computer and began to think about what fairy tale to write. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"A little longer, profound, educational, and for all ages?" Qin Ge kept recalling in his mind, searching for this novel that met this requirement.
"There are so many good fairy tales, "The Little Princess", "The Blue Bird", "Peter Pan", "The Nutcracker", "The Wizard of Oz", "Five Children and the Sand Spirits", ...... There's so much to write, what should I write? Qin Ge once again felt entangled in the fact that he could write too many stories.
"Forget it, since you don't know what to write, let's write what you like first, my favorite ......"
Qin Ge muttered to himself, and then his eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes, my favorite fairy tale is "The Little Prince"!" Yes, write about the little prince. ”
Qin Ge shouted happily, not to mention fairy tales, among all the stories he liked in his previous life, "The Little Prince" was one of the top three books, and to what extent did he like "The Little Prince"? To put it simply, he has watched "The Little Prince" more than 20 times.
Qin Gezhi has such a soft spot for "The Little Prince" because he was a cripple in his previous life, so he himself has a deep understanding of the loneliness of the little prince, and because of this commonality, he is obsessed with "The Little Prince".
So Qin Ge decided to write the story of "The Little Prince", no matter whether the Education Press publishes it or not, he himself must write this story, if the Education Press doesn't want this story, it means that they have no vision, then they will regret it sooner or later. It's a big deal that I will earn my own money and publish the book myself.
However, Qin Ge was a little worried, in fact, the Education Publishing House came to him for an appointment because of "The Emperor's New Clothes", which in itself shows their vision, and the request for the manuscript also said that the story should be profound, educational and suitable for all ages, which shows that the Education Press has a certain sense of social responsibility and is not just blindly pursuing commercial value. Therefore, as long as Qin Ge writes an excellent story like "The Little Prince", the Education Publishing House will definitely help him spare no effort to publicize it.
The book "The Little Prince" is a famous short story written by French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in 1942. It has been adapted into dramas and movies many times, and it can be described as a continuous performance. This book has been selected into the textbooks of many Western countries and has become a must-read for teenagers.
And not long before Qin Ge crossed, the cinema happened to show the latest cartoon adapted from The Little Prince. Qin Ge couldn't go to the cinema to watch it because of his health, and originally wanted to wait for the free version to come out before making up for it. Unexpectedly, before the cartoon of "The Little Prince" came out, he would cross over.
Thinking of this, Qin Ge couldn't help but feel a little regretful, so he wanted to write this novel even more firmly, he wanted more people to see the loneliness of the little prince and what Antoine de Saint-Exupéry wanted to tell everyone.
The protagonist of the book "The Little Prince" is a little prince from the alien planet B612.
The story follows a pilot as the narrator, telling the adventures of the little prince as he sets off from his planet to Earth.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry uses the childlike vision of a little prince to see through the emptiness, blindness and foolishness of adults, and writes in simple and naïve language about the loneliness and loneliness of human beings, wandering with the wind without roots. It also expresses the author's criticism of the relationship between money and the praise of truth, goodness and beauty.
The book "The Little Prince" has been sought after by countless fans since its publication, and it has accompanied many people to grow up, becoming a beautiful mark in their lives, and has also influenced many adults and touched their deep childlike innocence. Its irony and fantasy, truth and philosophy make it one of the most famous fairy tales in France and the world. It is precisely because of this that the book "The Little Prince" has been at the top of the bestseller list for more than 70 years and has become an enduring bestseller.
There is a claim on the Internet that "The Little Prince" has sold more than 500 million copies worldwide, second only to the Bible. I don't know for sure if there are 500 million copies of Qin Ge, but it is certain that hundreds of millions of copies have been sold.
Thinking of this, Qin Ge didn't dare to write, he stood up, walked to the pool, washed his hands with soap, and then rinsed them again and again with clean water, until he thought it was completely clean before returning to the computer desk again. In fact, Qin Ge would wash his hands every time he wrote, and he had never been as serious as this time before.
He did it for no other purpose than because of his love for The Little Prince; admiration for Antoine de Saint-Exupéry; and his own reverence for words.
The ancients had to bathe and burn incense before writing, which shows their piety.
This also tells the writer that he must be in awe of the words when he writes. Literary creation is a sacred cause, and wantonly desecrating "literature" is really an act of iniquity.
Qin Ge himself was not a great sage, but he did have an attitude of awe towards words, and because he was actually stealing the results of authors from another world in this world, he put this awe even more.
Everything was ready, and Qin Ge finally began to type on the keyboard:
When I was only six years old, in a book about a primeval forest called "True Stories", I saw a wonderful illustration of a python devouring a large beast. At the top of the page is a facsimile of the drawing.
The book reads: "These pythons swallow their prey without chewing, and then they can no longer move; They digest this food during their long six-month sleep. ”
At the time, I was thinking a lot about adventures in the jungle......
……
Qin Ge tapped on the keyboard, and slowly, he was completely immersed in the story, as if he had entered the world of the little prince, and as if he was the little prince himself.
However, although his mind wandered, the movements of his hands did not stop because of this.
Qin Ge coded the story of "The Little Prince" without eating or drinking, and the time came to 6 o'clock in the evening unconsciously.
……
He hesitated, then stood up. He took a step. And I couldn't move.
Near his ankle bone, a yellow light flashed. For a moment he didn't move. He didn't shout. He fell softly to the ground like a tree, probably because of the sand, and there was not even a sound.
……
One day, if you go on a trip to the African desert, take a closer look at this view so that you don't miss it in person. If you have the opportunity to pass through there, I beg you, do not go away in a hurry, but wait for a moment under this star. If a child comes up to you, if he is smiling, if he has blonde hair, and he doesn't answer the questions asked, you will know who he is. At that time, thank you! Don't let me be so sad all the time, write to me quickly; He's back......
End of full text
After Qin Ge typed the three words of the whole book, the strength of his whole body seemed to be completely drained, and he looked at the computer screen with a somewhat empty look. The picture of the little prince with blonde hair lying quietly on the desert kept replaying in his mind.
Qin Ge felt that his heart was a little sour, and he was immersed in this slightly sad emotion for a long time before he came back to his senses.
Qin Ge stood up, went to wash his face, and watched the sky outside the window gradually shrouded in darkness, Qin Ge suddenly thought: I don't know if the b612 planet is still there, if it is still there, without the little prince eradicating the baobab tree, will it have been wrapped in the baobab tree? Also, I don't know if the little prince's rose is okay? Has she been waiting for the little prince to come back on the planet B612......
"Whew, what? When did it become so sentimental? Qin Ge slapped the water on his face, and then shook his head desperately, trying to dispel the cranky thoughts in his heart.
"Okay, now that it's written, let's send it to the Education Press and see what they have to say." Qin Ge said, walked to the computer desk, picked up the mobile phone and pressed the * button to wake up the mobile phone, wanting to see if Zheng Shoudao had sent the delivery email to himself.
When I opened my phone, there was a text message, Qin Ge opened it and saw that it was the email address sent by Zheng Shoudao.
Qin Ge took the test of "The Little Prince" on a USB flash drive, then changed his clothes and went out, he prepared to go to [Fantasy Miracle], and then sent "The Little Prince" to the delivery mailbox of the Education Publishing House.
After all, the former owner of his body only had such a friend as Lin Hao in this world, and this Lin Hao was really good, so Qin Ge decided to continue to make Lin Hao a friend.
ps: I personally really like the book "The Little Prince", I don't know if you have read it, if you haven't read it, you must go and see it, the number of words is not much, but it is really good.
