Chapter 505: Professor Baldwin
The age difference is at least double, but it's not how old it is!
Mo Shi said again: "Little brother, our industry is also under a lot of pressure, don't think that I'm just for money, my paintings won't get results for a long time, and my reputation will be reduced." Thank you so much for being able to keep me active for at least five more years this time. ”
"Help each other, and get another painting of Big Brother Mo, it's really a shame." Zhou Xuan said politely.
"The person who can't help but go is me, little brother, let's share the income this time!" Mo Shi said.
"Brother Mo is too polite......"
As soon as Zhou Xuan said a word, Miao Lin took the mobile phone and said, "Painter Mo, the money can be transferred to the account of the Magi Investment Company, which can be counted as your support for the company." ”
Miao Lin put down the phone, and Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly, "Miao Miao, this is not good, you will be paid for doing someone a favor." ”
"I didn't ask him for nothing, of course I would give him dividends when I generated profits in the future. Besides, if you don't take it, he always feels that he owes you a favor, so why don't you do something that is happy. Miao Lin disagreed.
It was already lunch time, Zhou Xuan and Miao Lin had eaten before rushing to the London Princess Hotel, and Bu Jiazhuo was already in a hurry, and complained when they met, "Why did you come!" ”
"In the morning, I gave a scene to the great painter of Mo Shi." Zhou Xuan said casually.
"I'm too busy with my own affairs, and I'm going to be cheered on." Bu Jiazhuo knows that Mo Shi is also an alternative among painters, and he will make money in his own school, which is quite despised by these traditional academic schools. "Those scholars have been here since the morning, and they are all here for you."
"I'm sorry, Bu Lao, I stole your limelight." Zhou Xuan said apologetically.
"Whatever you say, the president will give it to you. Hehe, there are a lot more members who have applied again, and there are also those who take the initiative to pay membership dues. I plan to raise the threshold in the future, and also appropriately collect sponsorship fees, as a fund for the exchange of activities and the future development of the association. Bu Jiazhuo did not hide his opinion, and advised, "Don't forget, always promote our International I Ching Research Association." ”
"No, it won't." Zhou Xuan smiled.
At this time, an Englishman who looked like a scholar walked over, about sixty years old, wearing a tuxedo, gentle and elegant, "I take the liberty to ask, is it Mr. Zhou Xuan?" ”
"Yes."
"My name is Baldwin and I'm a professor of philosophy at Royal Holloway, and it's a pleasure to meet you."
"Professor Baldwin was a British hereditary aristocrat, but his father was a philanthropist, while Professor Baldwin was passionate about education." Miao Lin knows this very well and added.
"In my eyes, there is no distinction between nobles and commoners, and I prefer to give up my aristocratic identity and be with those innocent children." Bald was gentle and airway, without the slightest shelf.
"Professor Baldwin, why did you suddenly think to be here?" Zhou Xuan asked.
"I've heard that the first author of The Astronomical Chronicles has come to England and can't wait to see you. It's just that you're much younger than I thought you were. Baldwin was always unhurried.
Astrology? Miao Lin is not clear about the book. Before Zhou Xuan went abroad, An Rushan called him over, saying that the book they collaborated on had been published, which was a supplement to the ancient astrological phenomena, and he had not had time to publicize it, but he didn't expect that the British already knew about it, and they also knew that Zhou Xuan was the first author.
"Professor Baldwin, have you read this book?"
"Yes, if you wish, I can contact the publisher and publish the English version. Presumably, this book is also very popular in your country, I asked a friend to inquire in major bookstores, but I couldn't buy it, and the book I had was given by a friend of the observatory. Baldwin regretted.
"If the professor likes it, I can ask a friend in China to mail a few English copies. To tell you the truth, this book was co-written by me and an astronomer in China. It's just that there are more technical terms involved, or our domestic translation is more accurate. ”
"Of course it's better, you can stay true to the original. Personally, I need 100 copies to give to my friends and students. ”
Baldwin was very happy, and asked about the domestic price of the book, and opened his mouth in surprise, less than thirty yuan, that is, about three pounds, and he didn't know how to pay Zhou Xuan.
This is an illusion caused by the exchange rate, and the English version is naturally sold here in pounds. Zhou Xuan had time to send a message to Shang Yuhong, and the company paid for her old public security to expedite the printing of another 10,000 copies, the sooner the better.
Shang Yuhong thought it was a special care for her husband, so she sent a text message to excuse herself, and Zhou Xuan replied that the book has been valued by foreign experts, and it will be published in English, ready to be printed at any time.
Hearing this news, Shang Yuhong's tears of joy were about to fall, she used to think that her husband was just a family man, washing and cooking, but she didn't expect to be able to write a book with Zhou Xuan, and it was recognized by foreign experts.
In addition, Zhou Xuan sent a text message to Pei Shengnan to be in charge of translation, and if he didn't know, he could consult An Rushan, and then proofread it after he went back, and then it would be printed and sold. Tianxiangjian is not a novel, and the amount of translation is not large, Zhou Xuan believes that with Pei Shengnan's level, it can be about the same in a week.
Zhou Xuan sells books here, and Bujiazhuo develops members there, looking at the old and the young, Miao Lin was speechless, and walked over to sit with Yu Jiangzhou, who was busy and a little tired.
"Miao Miao, my throat is swollen, you can translate in the afternoon." Yu Jiangzhou pleaded.
"Mom will promise you." Miao Lin was careless.
"Mom!"
Miao Lin glared in displeasure, and Yu Jiangzhou sighed, "In order to survive, you can call anything, Miao Miao, please, it's really going to be wasted." ”
"Okay, I'll take care of the old translator." Miao Lin finally agreed.
"Hee-hee, you're such a good person, I want men to like you. Miao Miao, it's time for me to go out with Xuan tomorrow, right? Yu Jiangzhou asked pitifully.
"As long as he agrees, I don't care." Miao Lin said lightly.
"Forget it, he doesn't recognize anyone but you. In the past, Jiang Liang told me privately that he suspected that Zhou Xuan might have something wrong with not being close to women, but now that he has strong hormone secretion, I heard movement in your house at twelve o'clock. Yu Jiangzhou pouted.
"Hey, the consulate's house is of good quality, you can't hear anything unless you lie down at the door. Jiang Zhou, it's perverted to do this! Miao Lin was unhappy.
"Hmph, it's good that my girlfriend didn't rob your boyfriend, so I couldn't bear to ignore you!" Yu Jiangzhou was also annoyed, and he whispered and blindly flattered others as a light bulb, and felt sorry for himself when he thought about it, why bother!
Several scholars chatted with Zhou Xuan, and the topics of discussion were "Astronomical Phenomena", and Zhou Xuan said that the first three days of the conference were mainly to discuss the Book of Changes, after all, there was a special astronomical forum, which was also a respect for the researchers of the Book of Changes.
Repeatedly emphasized, the focus of everyone's attention is still Zhou Xuan, step by step is not annoyed at all, the name of the International Association for the Study of I Ching has been launched, and Zhou Xuan is the vice president of the association can't run. Go back and get him a job badge to bring with him!
