Chapter 394: Translator

However, people can't be disgraced, Director Ma didn't despise Lu Miao, got up and withdrew from the table, took a chair and invited Lu Miao to sit.

"I'll do it myself, and you can sit too."

Director Ma smiled and waved his hand, and said to Sister Liu:

"Trouble Comrade Xiao Liu to run and pour two jars of water, and I'll talk to this little comrade."

"Hey!"

Sister Liu went out to pour water, and Director Ma asked with a smile:

"How old are you?"

"I'm twenty-two years old."

"Yo, I really didn't see it!"

This Director Ma has a friendly attitude, and he talks like an elder.

Lu Miao smiled, her attitude couldn't help but soften, and she fell into the eyes of others, looking more and more well-behaved.

Director Ma saw the book she was holding in her hand, stretched out his hand, and Lu Miao handed it over.

"Do you know English? Who did you learn from? ”

This question is not easy to answer, and if it is not answered well, it is easy to invite trouble.

Lu Miao's brain was running rapidly, and he smiled:

"My dad worked in the school, and I used to go to the school to audit before I went to the countryside to join the team, and there were teachers who could speak English."

Guoguang Bookstore is a state-owned industry, and it depends on the state behind it.

The director Ma in front of him is naturally also a member of the state-run system, and to put it bluntly, he is doing things for the country.

If she wants to take on this job, her personal information will be strictly controlled, and these will have to be verified and investigated sooner or later.

When I went out, I was afraid that I would have to show the household registration page when I bought a book, and Lu Miao took it with me.

I'll show it to Director Ma at this time.

Director Ma nodded after reading it, flipped through the British version of "The Remains of the Lady of the Camellias in Paris" and read a paragraph casually in the center, asking:

"Do you hear what I just said?"

Lu Miao thought for a while and said:

"The mind is small, but he hides his thoughts, his eyes are just a small dot, but he can look around the vast world."

Director Ma nodded, and then randomly flipped the back of his face and drew a few paragraphs.

After discovering that Lu Miao could accurately translate into Chinese, he turned up the Chinese translation of "The Remains of the Lady of the Camellias in Paris", and extracted fragments for Lu Miao to translate into English.

Lu Miao knew several foreign languages, but she hadn't touched these things for a long time, and she was a little stumbling at first.

It was not until the third English translation that the rhythm was restored.

Her spoken language is standardized, which makes Director Ma feel like he is talking to foreign guests.

The ingredients are no problem, I have participated in going to the mountains and going to the countryside, and I am still a prospective college student who came back from the exam.

It belongs to a kind of person who is quite rooted and red, and quite promising.

Director Ma attaches great importance to the young girl in front of him.

He hoped to keep Lu Miao, but the test at hand did not stop at a copy of "The Remains of the Lady of the Camellias in Paris".

In case Lu Miao had read these two books, even if the probability was very small, Director Ma chose to act cautiously.

A few more books were randomly drawn from his desk, and Director Ma took the test for Lu Miao a few more times.

found that Lu Miao really had a deep foundation, and Director Ma couldn't help but appreciate Lu Miao a little more.

put the foreign books back on the table, and Director Ma returned the two copies of "The Remains of the Lady of the Camellias in Paris" to Lu Miao.

It happened that Sister Liu came in to deliver water.

Waiting for Lu Miao to hold the enamel jar, Director Ma took a sip of tea while blowing the tea leaves, and then introduced the work content and treatment kindly:

"We are now recruiting translators who are mainly responsible for translating foreign-language magazines and periodicals."

"Newspapers and magazines pay attention to timeliness, and generally require the translation to be published within three days after getting the manuscript, and the journal looks at the content, and the time is relatively rich."

"The treatment is calculated as five yuan within 3,000 words, and if it exceeds 3,000 words, it is calculated as three yuan per 1,000 words......"

Director Ma took a breath of relief, pondered for a moment, and continued:

"However, all translations need to be reviewed, so the settlement will not be too fast, and there will be about half a month of tolerance."

Lu Miao listened very carefully and asked questions in a timely manner:

"You can take this home with you, right?"

Director Ma bowed, "You can take it home here or at home, but some manuscripts that need to be translated with confidentiality can only be translated at the translation hall." ”

Lu Miao understood, hugged the two books tightly and asked again:

"Director Nama, huh...... Is there a manuscript I can translate today? ”

Director Ma laughed out loud, "Yes, yes!" ”

The turmoil of the past ten years has caused a shortage of domestic and foreign language talents.

There is a demand from the national superiors, and a steady stream of manuscripts will be sent to various translation studios and studios every day.

There are only unfinished manuscripts, and there has never been a shortage of translations.

Director Ma took the information sheet and asked Lu Miao to fill it in.

After Lu Miao recorded the detailed personal information, Director Ma brought her a sample translation and a foreign newspaper that was only delivered yesterday.

Lu Miao took the newspaper and glanced at it backwards, tilted her head and winked:

"Just one? Is there still a director? ”

Director Ma was slightly stunned for a moment, and laughed again.

"You're still young, don't be greedy, take this back and try it first, by the way, the accuracy can be guaranteed."

Lu Miao thought about it.

I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and it's not good if it's too ostentatious.

Putting away the newspaper neatly and putting it in the book, Lu Miao asked:

"Will I come in from the front bookstore next time?" Do you need to say a slogan? ”

Director Ma shook his head and led her to the courtyard and pointed to the small door in the corner of the courtyard.

"Next time, come from that side, just go around the alley behind the bookstore."

"There are people in the translation hall all day, and it's okay if I'm not there, those children in the courtyard are all students in the juvenile class, and many of them are at the same level as you."

"You give them the things when the time comes, and then explain the situation, and they will take care of it."

Lu Miao nodded, "Okay, then I'll go back first today, thank you, Director Ma." ”

Director Ma waved his hand and opened the small door of the courtyard to send her:

"The country is now short of talents in this area, Comrade Xiao Lu, you are right to choose this major."

Lu Miao smiled.

She felt so too.

Although I don't plan to become a pillar of the country, I can make money and contribute a little bit of strength.

It feels good to add half a brick or a tile to the country at this time.

Lu Miao bowed shallowly in the alley, and then stood out of the alley with books and newspapers in his arms, and trotted home in a hot mood.

Lu Yuanzheng is the principal and is literate himself.

The study room on the second floor not only contains many books, but also has a ready-made pen book.

Lu Miao flipped through the two books she bought, and carefully read the translation templates she got back a few times before she spread out the English newspaper and took up the pen to ink on the thick stack of line-grid manuscript paper.

Not every newspaper needs to be translated.

These social newspapers and periodicals have gone through several rounds of screening.

The parts that need to be translated are marked with specific symbols such as numbers or five-pointed stars.

When Lu Miao translates, she will mark the same symbol in front of the manuscript paper to avoid confusion. (End of chapter)
