Chapter 498 Don’t accept this trick
Gu Jiayu returned to China for a week and stayed for two days to visit her mother.

After the World Youth Forum, the heroine returned to Paris to continue her studies. Speaking of which, the super-powered girl also went on a business trip to America to develop her career.

Gu Lu, who was dizzy, muttered to himself, "In fact, our family has enough money, and there is no need to work so hard."

It is now the beginning of winter, and there are still two or three months until the New Year's Eve. This year, the writing task of 200,000 to 300,000 words for "The Borrower", "A Man Called Ove Decides to Die" and "Mr. Toad Goes to a Psychologist" has been completed.

The professor is about to retire and the school projects are also slow.

After buying some fruits at an orchard, Gu Lu returned to the hotel. He ate while reading the comments. Various photos and press releases from yesterday's youth forum were posted one after another.

But netizens didn’t pay much attention to the big scenes and the topic soon went off track.

Or under the video released by CCTV, a netizen left a comment: "What's the name of the girl in the big Ying representative?"

Or when the official Weibo account of Renren Daily released the news, the highly praised answer was: "Gu Lu is a tiger guarding the mountain, an eagle with farsightedness, a wolf good at fighting, a turtle taking the blame, and a bait for fishing! First of all, there is absolutely no problem for King Guru to be the leader of the Youth League, but I always feel that King Guru is the eldest disciple of the Strategic Research Institute..."

Looking at the phone, what caught Gu Lu's attention was a discussion post.

Netizens discussed, "The author's pen is a murderous knife. I cried a lot while watching Algernon and From the New World."

A netizen named Big Lemon jumped out and said, "This is the legendary cure for the world!"

More netizens agreed with this statement and named Gu Lu as the little prince who can heal depression.

This is a bit of an exaggeration. We can only say that he is more famous, which leads to many netizens having seen his works to some extent.

"These two books can heal the world? Songzi and To Live haven't been published yet, and I haven't even started working on it!"

Gu Lu is very satisfied with his plans for next year, "The Lord of the Rings" and "To Live". Won't the friends be sobbing and howling with joy by then?

Of course, a diligent plagiarist will try to rationalize his or her behavior as much as possible.

The world of The Lord of the Rings is huge, and it is easy to use the geography of some countries as prototypes. Gu Lu thought about it and decided that he would probably spend a few months abroad next year.

In addition, the Middle-earth in the Lord of the Rings, "Middle-earth" is a Chinese accent, but it is actually the translation of Middle-earth. Gu Lu knows very well that when Tolkien was creating the novel, the Shire region of Middle-earth was obviously in the style of the Great Ying countryside, and the terrain of Rohan was obviously the topography of the Scandinavian Peninsula.

Gu Lu's speech at the Youth Forum was indeed a spur-of-the-moment thought, but it made sense. The foundation of all artistic creation comes from the world.

"Yes, yes, yes, I almost forgot. Times are different, times are different." Gu Lu thought of something, "I originally wanted to take a break in the two or three months before the Chinese New Year, but it seems that it is not possible."

Yu Hua was born in the 1960s, and his novels span from the 1940s to the 1970s. He had never experienced that, so he looked up a lot of information. So Gu Lu must have also collected information, so he can prepare in the remaining few months.

King Guru became busy, while on the other side, the influence of the World Youth Forum began to spread outward.

As expected, the official media of more than 20 countries participating in the Youth Forum reported on the event separately.

Agence France-Presse: "The [Youth Advocacy Organization] proposed by our youth Gustave Li has attracted outstanding young people from all over the world to join the event. Gu Lu, the best friend of France, presented his big plan for writing..."

Fortunately, Gustave is from Marseille, otherwise AFP would definitely emphasize that it is London, our country.

Reuters: "Casina Mundra made her debut at the World Youth Forum, the world's highest-level youth exchange conference, co-hosted by my country, Huaxia and France. At the conference, outstanding young people from many countries chatted freely, and Castina and Gu Lu became the only two young people who were recognized by the audience that day."

Swedish News Agency: "Eriksson, the most promising Swedish genius to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, and Gu Lu had a good chat, and Gu Lu recognized Ericsson's writing talent."

ANSA: "So this is how Italy looks to the Chinese genius Gu Lu..."

and many more.

Why do news agencies in various countries mention Gu Lu? Because you have no reference, how can you show your awesomeness?
Take the only two times Reuters received full recognition as an example. What was that like? The applause started before he even spoke on the stage. Gu Lu was famous, so it was normal. But wasn't it reasonable for Kasna, a blonde beauty, to receive applause when she stepped on the stage?
Reasonable!
Every country has preferences for its own citizens. Even China, when editing, CCTV even cut out four-fifths of the content about Kasna that might have stolen Gu Lu's limelight.

All I can say is that the editors at CCTV understand the LSPs.

With an intellectual beauty like Kasna, it would be useless even if Tiga came, let alone Gu Lu.

"Professor, please go back first. I can't leave the Magic City for a while." Gu Lu said on the phone, "There are too many things to do."

The master and his disciple had originally planned to return to Sijiu City together, but their schedule was too full.

Where exactly? Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Russia all arranged to meet with Gu Lu.

Look at what others are saying, "Mr. Gu Lu, have you watched Paris Fashion Week? This year there are many works with elements of "Who Moved My Cheese?" You must go and see it."

Every invitation is hard to refuse.

It is very busy, and Gu Lu also arranges the schedule. Everyone is good at making promises.

As expected, leaders are all good at this, and this is the same throughout history, both in China and abroad.

"I know many writers from the Goncourt Academy, and they all like Mr. Gu Lu's works very much."

Look at the Goncourt Prize. In the eyes of some people, this award is more valuable than the Nobel Prize in Literature. Apart from other things, the first jury of the Goncourt Prize included Zola, Flaubert, Daudet...

I am full, really full. Gu Lu couldn't eat such a big cake. He has never written a long serious literary work, so he can't win this award.

Looking at the Italian again, although most of Gu Lu's attention was attracted by the waving hands when he was talking, the Italian pizza was really delicious. Maybe it was because they were good at making pizza?
Gaia, president of the Italian-Chinese Friendship Association, said, "Mr. Gu Lu, many of your works have been adapted into movies and animations. Are you interested in going to the Venice Film Festival? Be a judge for fun. You can also travel to Italy. As a guest of Italy, we must not let you worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation."

Gu Lu knew about the Venice Film Festival, one of the three major film festivals in Europe, but was it appropriate for him, an outsider, to be a judge?

I spent several days in Shanghai just to deal with the foreigners who made promises.

Gu Lu learned one thing from frequent dining with foreign guests. In fact, most Europeans are not used to eating unmodified Chinese food. It is not about whether it tastes good or not, but it is caused by long-term eating habits. It is just like the concept of drinking hot water is completely non-existent in foreign countries.

But the improved version... Gu Lu could only say that it was delicious, but his Chinese stomach was indeed a little bit uncomfortable with it.

"Now I know why foreigners love to eat dumplings and roast duck." Gu Lu muttered.

In the end, Gu Lu couldn't resist the constant temptation and agreed to go to Italy and London. In addition, Gu Lu's speech was the most widely spread, and the speech was used by the tourism departments of many countries and cities for advertising.

There's nothing much to say about these things, since they didn't pay any copyright fees anyway.

It is worth mentioning the reaction that Gu Lu’s speech caused in the country.

"My Fog City is awesome, it ranks ahead of the capital, Rome, Pisa, etc." "Fog City, Fog City, we support you to become the new tunnel." "Hahaha, it's normal for Chang'an to appear. After all, it has the Terracotta Warriors, which is known as one of the seven wonders of the world. What's the reason for Fog City?" "Just because Gu Lu is from Fog City, is that enough?" "I'm proud to be from Fog City!" "I went to the Internet and saw many people asking what architectural wonders Chongqing has." "Shudao Mountain?"...

Look at this, why is Gu Lu unique among writers? Apart from him, who else can make his hometown so prominent in the world?

The heat of the Youth Forum has just died down a bit in the past few days.

The launch of Yao Xiaoju's new book is also progressing in an orderly manner.

It was promised before that they would give good promotion, and with the cake that Gu Lu had painted, the treatment was really good. Even many official institutions in Da Ying came out to support it. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a treatment that even Da Ying’s own writers would be jealous of.

"The chairman of the Youth Education Advisory Committee said frankly: Gu Lu's new book is different from the Finnish book. It is a work truly written for adults. I have read it in advance at the publishing house, and I think it can be considered for inclusion in junior high school education."

Sean looked at the news in The Guardian, pouted, and looked very unhappy.

It feels like Britain is being governed by a group of insects. It withdrew from the European Union this year and has lost all of its glory as the British Empire.

Okay, even when it came to leaving the EU, Sean voted for it. But he's just a nobody, he doesn't know what that means, he just listens to the politicians' hype.

Sean is feeling particularly uncomfortable right now. Why would the Education Committee consider a work by a Chinese person that has not yet been published?
He doesn't like Sherlock Holmes or Shakespeare, so Sean has never read Mr. Holmes. Besides, he has no interest in Cthulhu.

"Dad, can I go out and play with Jerry today?" the child Honey asked.

"Huh?" Sean was in a bad mood, so he didn't look at the child well.

"Because today is Jerry's birthday, so..." Little Honey explained immediately. When his father was happy, he was very good and the best father, but when he was in a bad mood, he was terrible.

"Come back early." Sean put down the Guardian. He felt bad and looked at the child, who was timid and unhappy. "Has anyone bullied you at school?"

"Uh...no," eight-year-old Honey responded immediately.

"Then why are you so timid when you speak?" Sean said louder, "You need to become a man. I will take you to practice boxing during the holidays, starting from a young age."

Okay, now little Honey was even more scared, but the child was smart and knew that he couldn't cry, because crying would make things worse.

Little Honey didn't dare to object to his father's arrangement. He nodded and straightened his body. Whether it was the sudden idea of ​​taking him running or the boxing he was talking about now, they were all Sean's ideas.

There was nothing more to say. After the scolding, Sean felt much better. He lowered his head and continued to read the newspaper. The news in The Guardian was still quite serious.

Little Honey stood there for a while, not daring to leave. After more than a minute, when his father did not speak again, little Honey slowly left.

Sean's attitude represents many bigwigs.

The comments on the Internet are not good either. "Does our Da Ying have no one left?" "Written especially for us? I just saw that he wanted to sell books." "It won't be a book like cheese? We are not stupid French people, this won't work here." "The Cthulhu series is also hyped by a few British traitors."...

Yao Xiaoju looked at it and was not panicked, but very happy.

"I never thought that one day, an author would be hated by local people abroad because of excessive publicity." Yao Xiaoju felt like he was listening to a myth.

Black and red are also red, and Yao Xiaoju is very confident in the quality of Mr. Toad.

Therefore, the publicity did not weaken, but instead intensified.

Many junior high schools in London, Manchester and Birmingham have promoted the film "Mr. Toad Goes to the Psychologist".

This caused many complaints from parents, and the BBC also reported on it.

"Because promoting this book will be good for children's education. So we are promoting it. We don't know the specific content. Because the new book has not yet been released, I haven't read it." This was the response from an anonymous teacher at a school when the TV station interviewed him.

The Times even made a direct comment: After waking up, I felt that Gu Lu was going to rule the world.

The newspaper’s criticism targets not only the ruling party, but also Gu Lu.

Even though Britain is a capitalist country, they are quite polite when cutting off their primary and secondary school students. Why would they do it so openly like you?!

It is simply insulting to gentlemen!

For a whole week, I was in this environment. People who read books and those who didn't all knew about the new book that Gu Lu wrote specifically for Da Ying...

On October 10, "Mr. Toad Goes to See a Psychologist" was released on Daying, or more precisely, in English-speaking regions outside the United States.

Both the pre-promotion and the stocking in bookstores have reached the level of world-class writers.

"'Flatland' is okay - but it's just junior high school math knowledge. As a writer, I think it's better not to spread science blindly." Big Bane Bion frowned.

He is a professor at the University of Hertfordshire and holds a PhD in psychology from the University of Edinburgh. He also won the Peroc Warrick Scholarship at Trinity College, Cambridge, and is considered an expert in European psychology.

Due to the spread of film and television dramas, the public has very big misunderstandings about psychology. Anyway, he personally hates the American TV series "Lie to Me" very much.

It is said to be adapted from the original novel by behavioral psychologist Paul, but much of the psychology knowledge is very one-sided.

"Gu Lu is much more famous than Paul. Don't turn psychology into entertainment anymore."

Why does Bane hate entertainment so much?

Because this will cause many patients who already have psychological problems to be afraid to seek psychological counseling.
