"I wonder how, I wonder why,
I wonder where they are…”
Mike was holding lmusic1 in his hand and humming "My Love" by the Western Boys. He stood in front of the mirror with a slumped look and glanced at his roommate who was working hard.
"Hey, Lai, stop translating, you forgot what day it is today!"
"call."
Lai Jingping raised his head and exhaled: "What day?"
"In more than an hour, it will be the 14th, do you know what that means?" Mike said excitedly, "Valentine's Day! The midnight social party is coming soon, you can be single."
Lai Jingping shook his sore hand: "And you."
Mike laughed and scolded: "Fuxk you! Dress up quickly, the sexy hotties are waiting for us, and the translation will go to hell."
"Go ahead."
Since Lai Jingping watched "I Am the Archmage", his heart felt like a cat's paw, and he was eager to watch the follow-up, but he had to pass the translation assessment, which required at least 5 chapters to be translated into English.
"You read it all night yesterday, and it took you four or five hours to read it today. There are still no chapters 5?"
Mike frowned and looked at the computer.
"The first draft of 8 chapters still needs to be revised and polished."
Lai Jingping shrugged, "Do you want to take a look?"
Mike stretched his head over. It didn't matter if he didn't stretch it. Once he stretched it, he kept the position for several minutes, his eyes couldn't take away from the screen.
Lai Jingping asked anxiously: "How is it, how is it?"
Mike frowned and said, "Why don't you have any more down there?"
"No more, that's all."
Lai Jingping yawned, "How do you feel?"
"Motherfuxk, much better than "Dragonlance Chronicles" and "Harry Potter". Those books made me want to sleep."
Mike said loudly: "What's the plot going to be about next?"
Lai Jingping grinned: "You can understand it as Duan Yuyan's encounter in a different world. The girl he picked up is not even his sister. Although I don't have the following text, the translation matter says there are more than a dozen women, angels, elves, witches... …”
"Duan Yu! If there is a dragon girl, I want to be a dragon knight!"
Mike's blood boiled, and hot breath came out of his nose, "Quick, translate quickly, you don't want to go to the sorority party, you don't want to go anywhere now, motherfuxk, please translate for me."
Lai Jingping became energetic and went into seclusion in a small dark room.
For someone like him, Wang Dawei cast a wide net and found 17 people, including Chinese, overseas Chinese, and international students, all from Ivy League universities. It was not difficult to translate 5 chapters, after all, it was a novice novel.
In just one day, 8 translations were received one after another.
Wang Dawei didn't even look at it, but packaged it all and sent it to Lu Fei's mailbox, along with the translator's resume for screening.
It is midnight on the other side of the ocean, and it is noon in China.
In the Three-Body Fund Company, Lu Fei took advantage of his lunch break to eat his lunch and read the English translation. When he saw the name "Lai Haiping" for the first time, he couldn't help but feel that he had seen it before.
"Mr. Lu, the tea you wanted."
The secretary respectfully brought the thermos cup.
"Take it."
Lu Fei motioned for her to clean up, with an absent-minded look on his face. When he saw that "I like martial arts" was clearly written on his resume, he suddenly had an idea -
Hiss, this is not the founder of the martial arts world!
This is the person who translated "The Transformation of the Stars" and "Coiling Dragon" into English for external websites, and also founded a special translation website!
It is entirely possible to build a team with Lai Jingping as the core.
"How about it, Lu, are you satisfied with it?"
Wang Dawei wasted no time and sent new emails.
Lu Fei eliminated 4 out of 8 and retained 4 including Lai Jingping. The fittest survived and the ones who remained in the end were the first batch of employees of Chuangshi Literature International Station.
Wang Dawei said: "I will talk about signing the contract immediately. They are very enthusiastic and are very eager to see the follow-up."
Lu Fei typed on the keyboard: "I want to finish it within 2 months. If we don't have enough people, I'll add one or two more."
The reply to the email was just a simple "ok".
"Suck."
Lu Fei took a sip of water. With one thing in mind, his attention turned to the Chicago futures, which were closed.
Since the beginning of the new year, the price of soybeans has been rising, from 880 cents per bushel to 920 cents per bushel, equivalent to 3,417 yuan per ton.
10 tons per lot, 5% margin, about 1,708 yuan.
The soybean contract is delivered in a single month, that is, January, March, May, and July. At this time, the contract will end, and the position needs to be moved to another month in time.
There are also four major grain merchants on Wall Street, ABCD, who are obviously making plans. They jointly raise the price of soybeans, looking long first and waiting for the opportunity to kill long.
Lu Fei glanced at his account. Carlson Bullock opened a position from 900 cents to 908 cents. He made 10,000 lots and was able to drink a sip of soup.
But he doesn't care about the money. It's equivalent to buying a hedge for the domestic soybean traders. Compared with being bought by himself, it's better than letting ABCD Grain Merchant buy it all.
If you can save one family, then you can pack it up and sell it to Chongliang, Oil and Luhua, which is beneficial to yourself and the country, a win-win situation!
While I was thinking about it, my phone buzzed and vibrated.
"I've got off the plane." Gao Yuanyuan's voice was sweet.
Lu Fei joked: "I've made a reservation for dinner, the room is ready, and I'm ready, are you ready?"
"Pooh!"
Gao Yuanyuan on the phone laughed: "I'll send Shishi and Mimi to audition for Tang Dynasty first. I didn't expect you to be so busy and still notice this."
"I don't care about Miss Gao's career, who does?"
"Hehe, that's well said, but it's a pity that there is no prize."
"You can have this, Jie Jie Jie, have you brought all your clothes?"
"Crack."
Gao Yuanyuan hung up the phone shyly, faced the surprised looks of Liu Shishi and Yang Mi, and said calmly:
"Why do you look at me like this?"
"Sister Yuanyuan, your face is so red."
Yang Mi narrowed her eyes into a straight line and smiled very strangely, "Did you think of spending Valentine's Day with your seniors? Oops!"
"People are as big as little devils."
Gao Yuanyuan raised her hand and struck her head with a knife. The force was neither heavy nor light. Then she said with a straight face:
"Don't talk nonsense when you go in later, got it?"
"Mimi and I will listen to Sister Yuanyuan."
Master Liu nodded, with a well-behaved look on his face.
Yang Mi stuck out her tongue and looked out the window expectantly. The street scene flashed by until the car slowly slowed down and stopped on the road in front of Tangren Company.
Entering the company, there are various film and television posters posted on the walls of the corridor, such as "The Female Generals of the Yang Family", "Peerless Twins", "Fish Mermaid", "Baolian Lantern"...
Everyone was watching the flowers, Yang Mi looked left and right, and suddenly felt her sleeve being pulled hard, and saw Master Liu pursed his lips and said:
"Mimi, I'm a little nervous, what should I do?"
"Why are you nervous?"
Seeing her best friend's round face, Yang Mi was filled with envy and jealousy: "Don't worry, based on my experience as a veteran Fairy Sword player, I can responsibly say that you are suitable to play Zhao Ling'er."
"Really?!" Master Liu stared with deathly eyes.
"Of course! I am also suitable for Lin Yueru."
Yang Mi raised Fang Fang's chin, "I don't know who Li Xiaoyao is looking for. I heard it's Nicholas Tse. Hehe, it'd better be him. He's my idol..."
"You two are very beautiful, so don't think too much about your beauty."
Gao Yuanyuan held the two girls by both hands and walked quickly towards the dressing room under the guidance of the staff.
When I turned the corner and entered the aisle, I ran into a strange man wearing a fake hood. He had handsome features and clear outlines, giving him a full boyish look.
"Hey, are you Li Xiaoyao?" Yang Mi looked back.
Master Liu said in a daze: "Who is Li Xiaoyao?"
"That's him, that's the guy."
Yang Mi stretched out her hand and pointed, and Gao Yuanyuan looked in the direction of her finger. She was somewhat similar to Lu Fei, less mature and steady, and less majestic and domineering.
What would happen if Mr. Lu played Li Xiaoyao?
"A sneeze."
Brother Hu had his back to them and could feel being pointed at.
again! A Spider-Man actor just said that he looks like Li Xiaoyao. Is he really that similar?
………
"Wow, that actor just now is definitely Li Xiaoyao."
Yang Mi entered the dressing room carelessly. Her voice was so loud that it immediately filled the silence everywhere in the room. She was putting on makeup, had put on makeup, and was waiting to put on makeup. They all looked at her.
Hiss, Zhou Zhiruo!
The moment Gao Yuanyuan appeared, everyone was shocked.
Not far away, Liu Xiaoli stuck her head out and looked around, murmuring:
"Why is she here, and she has two girls with her."
"Mom~"
Liu Yifei faced the makeup mirror. In the mirror, she saw herself with her hair tied in a bun, like two conch shells coiled on both sides of her head, with green silk ropes hanging down. She looked cute, cute, and smart.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous."
Liu Xiaoli patted her daughter's hand and comforted her softly, "She is already an old girl. She will definitely not be able to play Zhao Ling'er. She can only play Zhao Ling'er's mother. The heroine can only be my Sissy."
"No, no, Mom, the one next to me."
Liu Yifei frowned and looked at Master Liu, who was also very understanding and noticed her in the crowd.
I checked with my eyes, they are competitors!
"Oh, it looks familiar."
Yang Mi smacked her lips, "I know her, I know her! Wang Yuyan in "Dragon Movie"!"
"What should I do, Mimi, what should I do?"
Master Liu's face turned pale and he was already retreating.
"What should I do? If you don't lose to her, do it with her!"
Yang Mi looked from left to right, one was pure and fairy-like, the other was classical and elegant, both had round faces, fuck, so angry!
"I can't do it."
Liu Shishi lacked confidence, "She is more suitable than me."
"What are you afraid of? We have Sister Yuanyuan!"
Yang Mi smiled and said, "Isn't that right, Sister Yuanyuan?"
"You talk a lot, just put on your makeup honestly."
Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and leaned down to comfort the restless Liu Shishi. All of this fell into Liu Xiaoli's eyes.
"Hmph, didn't you just play Zhou Zhiruo?"
She felt confident that she had someone to rely on, so she didn't panic at all.
"Mom, it's the director!"
After Liu Yifei finished speaking, Li Guoli, Cai Yinong and others suddenly appeared at the door, walking over in a swarm.
"You came just in time. I was just about to ask them. How could they find another actor when they clearly agreed that Zhao Ling'er would choose you?"
Liu Xiaoli held her arms in her arms, thinking that Li Guoli and others were coming towards her to give her an explanation, but unexpectedly——
They passed directly in front of him and went straight to Gao Yuanyuan, opening their mouths "Mr. Gao" and closing their mouths "Mr. Gao", full of enthusiasm, like important VIP guests.
"What's going on! What's going on!"
Liu Xiaoli opened her mouth with a face full of disbelief. In her ears, she heard people whispering and whispering to each other:
"Isn't that the actor who plays Zhou Zhiruo? Why did he become President Gao?"
"No, you don't even know this?"
"I don't know. Tell me quickly. Tell me."
"He is the boss of Hantang, does Hantang know?"
"Hiss! Is it the same Han and Tang Dynasty that produced "Conquest" and "Parental Love", and also signed contracts with Zeng Li and Qin Hailu?"
"That's not true! Even Hua Yi has to give her face. She was just filming "Eternal Dragon Sword" just for fun. After playing Zhou Zhiruo, she stopped acting."
"..."
The crowd was full of chatter and chatter.
"mom?"
Liu Yifei felt the pressure and called out a few times.
"Don't be nervous Sissy, Zhao Linger must be yours."
The calmness on Liu Xiaoli's face disappeared. She took out her cell phone in a panic and dialed a number skillfully.
As soon as the connection was connected, a man's voice came out: "Xiao Li, how's it going? Did Sissi's audition go well?"
"Something happened, Jin Fei."
Liu Xiaoli looked at Gao Yuanyuan, who was being admired by all the stars, and anxiously explained the whole story: "This is Sissi's first heroine role. She likes it very much, but she must never let others oppose her."
"Huh, isn't he just the CEO of a film and television company?"
The male voice on the phone sounded domineering.
"I'll come here personally. Since it's Sissi's heart, no one can take it away, I said so!"
Thanks to Yak Yak Xi for the big 200 starting coins.
