Chapter 431: Newspaper Work
"I used it as a translator, and it was a long way to go, and when people heard that I came here to study, they recommended a nearby place."
"This ......"
Tang Mei also understood.
This letter of recommendation is a favor thing.
If it is lost or damaged, they can only blame themselves for confiscating it, and there is no possibility of finding someone to ask for it again.
Things made Lu Miao a little annoyed.
But the letter is gone, and it's useless to vent your emotions in front of those close to you.
It will only hurt people and hurt feelings.
Covering her face with her hands and taking a few deep breaths, Lu Miao wiped away her tears, and the tip of her nose was red and tried to calm down:
"Forget it, it's nothing, little aunt, you can get busy."
"Your dad also knows some people, why don't you ask your dad about this? See if he can help? ”
Tang Mei was not at ease.
"The relationship has to be used on the blade, the real relationship, what is it?"
Lu Miao shook her head stubbornly.
"Let's take one step at a time, if there is really a difficulty, I will talk to my father."
Letters of recommendation are a shortcut.
At the moment, talent is scarce, and if she is willing to put in some effort, there is no shortcut, and she can still find a job that meets her expectations.
Lu Miao's expression was firm and he made up his mind.
Tang Mei looked at her regained her composure, and she was still a little worried.
It was only two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still early.
Lu Miao made up her mind to go out for a walk.
When people are in a bad mood, it seems that it is easy to touch the mold.
Just finished counting the money and was about to get off the kang, her stomach swelled for a while, Lu Miao felt bad, went to the toilet to see, the little day really came early.
She didn't have time to clean up in a hurry, she changed her clean clothes, soaked her dirty clothes in a small basin and put them behind the door of the room, planning to come back later to wash them.
There is a Guoguang bookstore in the department store square next to Junbei University.
Lu Miao went directly over there.
The state does post some relevant recruitment information through bookstores, but not every bookstore does so.
The Guoguang Bookstore on the West Second Ring Road does not have it.
However, when settling the settlement with the books, Lu Miao still heard some useful news.
A few stops east of the official exchange, there is a newspaper and publishing house that needs translation personnel.
There is also a place called "National Kumon Eisha", which is also recruiting relevant talents.
This place sounded unfamiliar, Lu Miao asked a few words idly, and learned about the National Kumon English Society, referred to as the National British Society.
There is also a common common name, called the National News Agency.
It is responsible for playing the role of mouthpiece, eyes and ears, think tank and information collection for the country, not an ordinary public institution.
This kind of unit, in this era, it is not easy to want to get in.
A college student from a prestigious school is a bit of a standard thing, but she is still in her freshman year, and people probably won't hire her in the past.
Lu Miao had a scale in her heart.
After thinking about it, I directly passed the Guoying Society.
After thanking the comrades in the bookstore, Lu Miao bought a ticket and got on the bus to go to the newspaper and publishing house.
At this stage, there is a large gap in English translation, and it is still advantageous to engage in it.
Lu Miao went to the four news agencies first.
The comrades who received her listened to her inquiry about the work related to translation and directly found the president of the boss.
Liu Shouyi, the president of the newspaper, brought a few people over.
"Just her? Can translate into English? ”
Someone saw that Lu Miao was young and a little girl, so she shook her head and sneered:
"Little comrade, have you come to the wrong place? Any idea what this place is? Any idea what the English translation means? ”
Lu Miao frowned slightly.
Someone pulled the man just now and disagreed:
"Old Zhou, you keep it ...... What if! ”
"Even if there is a shortage of people, you can't waste time like this! I've got a lot of work to do. ”
The middle-aged man named Lao Zhou shook his head and left with a cold snort.
Lu Miao took a slight sigh.
No one will be happy to be despised by others.
But I don't know what happened to the other publishing house.
If there's a vacancy here, she's trying to leave a way out.
The other few people are a little embarrassed, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to say.
Lu Miao shook her head slightly, "It's okay." ”
Turning his head to look at the middle-aged man wearing a tunic among them, he saw that the position was the tallest:
"I used to work as a translator at the Chongwen Translation Museum, and I don't have anything to prove it for the time being...... But it doesn't matter, you can test me anything. ”
Probably at this stage, talents are really scarce to the extreme, and Liu Shouyi did not despise the girl in front of him.
casually pulled a stack of newspapers from the table next to him, shook it open and looked at it, Liu Shouyi drew a place and handed it to Lu Miao.
Lu Miao took the newspaper and glanced at it.
It was the literal propaganda of the Komsomol.
The English translation requires a deep foundation in Chinese.
Translation from Chinese to English requires a higher level of English vocabulary.
It is also necessary to be familiar with the use of various long and short sentence patterns.
Everyone looked at Lu Miao.
Lu Miao silently read the entire propaganda slogan, sank his heart and lips moved slightly, and after summarizing it in his heart, he opened his mouth:
“Some people say,Reconizing me is easy at moments of life and death.”
Some people say that it is easy to recognize me before the death of blood and fire.
“Because I am the one who follows the flag and charges ahead…”
I'm the one who rushes to the front with the flag......
Lu Miao reacted quickly and retold a large paragraph of content smoothly.
People who know how to do think she is a cow.
People who don't know how to do it......
I think she's a cow too!
The first few old guys, before the past ten years, were also exposed to English when they were in high school.
But the embarrassing thing is that most of them are only at the stage where they can understand the skin.
Many of the English words spoken by Lu Miao are unfamiliar to them, and some of them pass and they don't know how to spell them.
Liu Shouyi is a little better, and he will do a little English translation every day.
But because of the location in the newspaper office, the affairs are busy, and I can't manage too much, so I am in a hurry to find someone.
Lu Miao responds quickly and speaks standardly.
Listening to her interpretation, Liu Shouyi's eyes lit up, and he quickly pulled out a chair and asked her to sit:
"You're still a student, aren't you?"
"Yes, I'm a student majoring in English translation at the Military Region University."
"Military Region University! English Major! ”
The people next to him looked at each other and said:
"That's a prestigious school! No wonder! ”
Liu Shouyi nodded, seeing Lu Miao's eyes even hotter, and truthfully said the situation at this stage:
"The newspaper is currently recruiting translators, and the work involves both English and Chinese translations, mainly English to Chinese ......."
"The content of the section will be sent to individuals after screening, and the length is generally not too large."
He took the newspaper and roughly marked the content of the section for Lu Miao to see.
It's almost one of the many sections when Lu Miao was translating in the translation hall before.
Each article is about three to five hundred words.
"According to the content, the remuneration is two yuan within five lines, more than five elements, five yuan within ten lines, and eight yuan if it exceeds ten lines."
Fourth, the news agency is not large, focusing on regional news and small news.
Collecting foreign content and expanding the audience is one of them.
On the other hand, the direction of the audience has increased greatly, and the income has naturally increased.
Newspapers also need money to operate. (End of chapter)
