After seeing Yang Yi walking down, the young foreigner waiting at the entrance couldn't help but wave and shout. This reaction was in sharp contrast to the man next to him, but after thinking about it, these were also two people from completely different regions. , the differences that should be shown. After shaking his head to indicate that he had seen the other person, he hurried over. Originally he just wanted to shake hands, but due to the insistence of the blond ghost guy, the boy could only hug him helplessly, and then turned to the side. The middle-aged man. "Hi, dear Yang, let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Sean, the general manager of Peacock Publishing Company, Bantam Publishing Group, a subsidiary of Random House. In Bantam Group, Mr. Sean is not An out-and-out veteran, he is a figure that I respect and admire very much. If my sensitivity to a good written work is eighty, then Mr. Sean’s sensitivity is one hundred. And this time your "Twilight" "City of Light" is able to obtain so many resources from the group because he has made a lot of efforts in it!" After letting go of the boy, seeing the other man's eyes falling on the man next to him, Edward quickly introduced him. It was obvious that, This ghost guy's admiration for the man next to him came from the bottom of his heart, without any pretense of emotion. "Hello, when I saw "Twilight" before, I was thinking that the guy who won the Booker Prize at the age of seventeen finally had a work that matched his age, and It’s not the unbelievable heavy-topic writing of "Tu Pimple". Well, all in all, you are a genius in writing. I am glad to see you." The middle-aged man didn't have anything to do with Edward's praise for himself. evaluation, but immediately brought the topic to the boys. Yang nodded: "Actually, I want to talk about "The Stone of Destiny". I also completed that work in a rather strange writing state. Detach, detach yourself. From the perspective of a historical bystander Listen to and see it from a different perspective, and then add the guidance of my teacher - because the old man has personal experience - so that a period of history that is considered a long time ago for me can be reproduced in my writing more realistically. "What about "Twilight"? With all due respect, I have read the original version of this novel and the translation you personally translated" Seeing Yang Yi's slightly surprised look, Edward couldn't bear it. Zhu proudly interjected: "Don't be surprised just because Mr. Sean has read the original Chinese version of "Twilight". In fact, as a member of Random House, whether it is a member of the Copyright Affairs Department like me, Yang or A general manager of a publishing company like Mr. Sean must master two or three mainstream foreign languages, and Chinese is the most important one." Seeing Yang Yi nodding in surprise, there was a hint of approval and admiration in his eyes. Mr. Sean laughed and nodded: "Although it seems immodest to say this, I am still proud of Random House's set of employment standards. This is why we can become the best in the publishing and literary world." The reason why it is such an important force. Well, now the topic comes back to your "Twilight". I have read the Chinese original version and the translation, and then I have a strange feeling. Is it written for our Citi country market? To be precise, it should be for those young people who are influenced by our Citi ideas? Is my guess correct? " Although I have been exposed to many publishing circles and cultures in China. people in the circle. Among them, there are many people like Luo Ge who are born businessmen, but also have some cultural qualities, which can be called Confucian businessman temperament. But like the Sean in front of me, no matter it is personal professional quality. Whether you look at a commercially published work, you must be considered a top person in the industry. This was really the first time for a boy to see it. In fact, wasn't "Twilight" a copycat of a Citizen writer's work? Moreover, when he first started writing, he "copied" the English version first, and then translated it. Therefore, if you want to count it seriously, the Chinese version is the translation, and the English translation is the real original version. After sighing in his heart for a while, Yang Yi nodded and admitted without hesitation: "In fact, for the novel "Twilight", I did target the Citiland market, especially the teenagers." "Can you tell me the reason for doing this?" Sean asked with a smile, but before doing it again, he didn't forget to gesture to the other two people as they walked away. By turning around, he well hid the strange look in his eyes. "Of course." The three of them walked outside side by side, in no particular order. Although Yang Yi's size was not too different from the two adult men, after all, their temperaments were different, which still attracted some passers-by. curious. But in Citiland, it’s just curiosity. On the way out of the airport lobby, Yang Yi smiled and explained the reasons why he wrote "Twilight".? Factor: "The first thing is inspiration. This is the most important thing. I think Mr. Sean also knows it. Because I participated in the biennial Chateau Literary Salon in France, so at that time, I had a deep understanding of some western castles and castles. I have a strong interest in the stories of vampires and ancient vampires. However, this inspiration has been intermittent since I came back, so I didn’t write immediately.” The other party nodded and expressed his recognition of this reason. In fact, it was absolutely true. Most published writers, especially those whose writing styles tend to favor traditional literature, are the kind of people who are extremely self-centered in writing. If they don’t have inspiration, they can’t write anything. Once they have inspiration, no matter whether they are familiar with it or not, If the enthusiasm for the subject matter does not dissipate over a long period of time, then the inspiration must be turned into words. "As for the second point, saying it may make you a little surprised andwell, how to describe it? It may make you a little bit disdainful, because the reason why I write on this topic about Citigroup is because Citigroup The country has perfected its copyright laws and has a huge market." Yang Yi smiled, deliberately pretending to be the kind of innocent person who would always be at a disadvantage in front of his predecessors: "Actually, when it comes to this mysterious and fantasy novel theme, we in China have nothing to do with it. There are also many, even far more than Citigroup, including Greek mythology, Nordic mythology, Egyptian mythology, Middle Eastern mythology, Indian mythology, and North and South American Indian mythology. These themes are the ancestors of various nations on the earth and provide future generations with Important spiritual wealth that has been handed down. However, with all due respect, if we talk about the richness of the mythological system and the magic of imagination, especially after Europe entered an orderly society and even modern times, those ancient myths and legends inevitably began to be lost. Only Our Chinese people, from the legends of humans and gods in ancient times to the folk rumors after the Middle Ages, have preserved the spiritual wealth of fantasy in the whole book. Personally, the two literary works I am reading now are. One of them is called "Liaozhai" and the other is called "Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes", and the related themes are all in it. " "I said so much because I want to explain that in our China, those who are related to gods and ghosts. Western legends such as vampires and werewolves have a very large reading market. If it were not for some reasons, I would rather focus on themes that I am more familiar with instead of describing a topic that I have never tried before. This is not the case. I gave up my huge reading base in China and chose Citiland, a small town, and a completely Westernized legend as the background, just for the ultimate gain. " Speaking of this, the look on Yang Yi's face showed. The innocent and harmless appearance is more lively, and there is also a slightly embarrassed look. If someone who is familiar with the boy sees it, he will probably be extremely speechless. "In other words, the reason why you wrote this "Twilight" is just for personal financial considerations?" Sean couldn't help but burst into tears: "However, as far as I know, you can be considered a good person in China. Are you the top best-selling author? As for the new generation of writers, no one can surpass you in terms of personal income. It can even be said that you are the richest writer in China! I started a company, which involves a lot of Internet-related businesses. Now is the time when the Internet economy is not doing well and seems to be in a bubble." Yang spread his hands and expressed that he was also in a world of his own. "Company? Internet-related business? I knew it before. Edward mentioned it to me, saying that your company has the future of Random House. But it also develops Internet-related business, which is very surprising." Sean Shaking his head, he understood Yang Yi's motivation for writing: "So what you mean is that you have taken a fancy to our Citigroup. Well, to be precise, it should be the huge consumption power of the North American market, so you wrote such a targeted article. "A novel?" "That's roughly the reason, and economic reasons are probably the most important." Yang nodded, and then asked curiously: "I don't know why Mr. Xiaon would treat me." "I am interested in the writing motivation." "After reading "The Twilight Saga", I felt that it should be written by a Citi writer, a writer who has been influenced by Citi culture since he was a child. The style in the book is simply too great. It was too strong, so I couldn't help but become curious." Sean smiled and explained to Yang Yi. However, when observing the senior manager of Random House, Yang Yi found a trace of solemnity flashing in the other person's eyes, as if he always felt that the explanation just given by the other person was not the real reason. But the other party is now the person in charge of the promotion and marketing of his own "Twilight Saga", so he can't possibly be hiding any unfavorable plans behind his back, right? Therefore, Yang Yi did not have too much doubts and just assumed that the other party encountered difficulties in other aspects. In fact, boys only guessed half of it right.??Sean did encounter difficulties on some issues, and this problem was not in other aspects, but because of him and his book "The Twilight Saga".
