Chapter 568 Sounds Fake

Manager Xiao came back to his senses, "President, you haven't paid much attention to Da Ying's news recently, right?"

President Wang gave him a look that said "nonsense". He had already exhausted all his energy in recent days negotiating with Shanghai People's Publishing House, so how could he have the time to announce any news about overseas developments?

"Yes, Prime Minister" became very popular in a short period of time, even reaching the popularity of Let the Bullets Fly on the domestic Internet. The Internet was full of quotes from this work." Manager Xiao said, "To be precise, there was a parade in the beginning, and many people chose to use quotes from Yes, Prime Minister."

Although there are not as many demonstrations in London as in France, there are still one or two demonstrations in London every month. There have even been three major workers' marches in Europe (millions of people).

Manager Xiao then opened Twitter and found several pictures of demonstrations involving thousands of people.

[When a country is going downhill, someone has to sit in the driver's seat and step on the accelerator. xxx is that person]
Someone held up a sign like this, and the name xxx was the name of the person who opposed it, and there were several names.

In addition to these, there are other golden quotes. Overall, there is nothing wrong with saying "Yes, Prime Minister" to cause a protest.

"Xiao Gu is really amazing. No matter how outrageous the subject matter is, as long as he is given enough time, he can write anything." President Wang sighed, and at the same time felt that he was somewhat unqualified for not even knowing this news.

Manager Xiao advised, "Promotion and data collection are my job. The president is going to decide whether our big ship will stay or go, so it's normal that he doesn't know about these little things."

"Besides, last year and this year were the years when Mr. Gu Lu's fame abroad exploded." Manager Xiao said, "I also just learned that the "Life of Dostoyevsky" written by Gu Lu at the end of last year also caused a huge sensation in the Bear Country. It even ended an internal controversy in the Bear Country's literary world."

"Hey! Such a big thing, but there is no news in China. His earlier book won the Naoki Prize in Japan." Manager Xiao said, "The latest is that America has included The Lord of the Rings on the list of banned books. It's all news."

"The Lord of the Rings is included in the list of banned books?" President Wang asked, what is going on.

"It seems that the reason is that Mr. Gu Lu insisted that the Lord of the Rings series would not be released in the United States." Manager Xiao said. He knew that the movie adapted from the Lord of the Rings would be released in Hollywood.

If only the movie was better…it would be interesting if America’s focus was still on the books not being available locally.

"Yes, Xiao Gu's influence abroad is growing year by year." President Wang nodded.

This discussion basically determined the promotion method for the Chinese version of "Yes, Minister". As for the publication time, it will be much later, after all, it needs to be translated into Chinese first.

It takes more than a month for books to be released in China, but the publicity and promotion must be carried out immediately. Domestic netizens, under the "intercommunication" of the headquarters, saw the works of making a fuss.

"Yes, Minister", a Chinese-written novel about the politics of the British, is loved by British people"

"What merits does "Yes, Minister" have that can transcend national boundaries?"

"Daying people march and demonstrate, holding up quotes from books"

……

Rope Network User 9085: [Is this true? The news seems fake. Just look at this thing, foreign netizens who post videos analyzing politics on YouTube will be directly warned. Not to mention directly publishing a book satirizing current affairs, even if this person is Gu Lu, it is not allowed! ]

I have to say that although this netizen's online name doesn't sound like a serious person, what he said is true. "The sun never sets on free speech, and there is no shooting in America." Everyone knows what's going on.

According to common sense, his doubts are correct, but they are just common sense.

Shuiqilu: [It’s true. This book has been sold out on Daying. Many bookstores have sold out. I am a student in London. And I feel that this book should be officially authorized. It seems that Gu Lu also invited a very famous politician from Daying to give an explanation.]
A user on the website immediately responded: "Then the book must contain only a small number of satires, and the majority of them are eulogies." Netizen Shuiqilu said nothing, but only captured two paragraphs:

“The first law of politics: Only what is officially denied can be believed.”

"Diverting attention is one of the basic skills of a minister, along with delaying decisions, avoiding questions, playing with data, distorting facts and covering up mistakes."

"No, Minister, corruption has never been a policy. It is incredible, it is just government practice."

The Chinese translation was provided, and Shuiqi Lu said that his translation might not be so faithful and elegant, but the general meaning is definitely correct. "Yes, Minister" is full of similar golden sentences.

An Bo: [Awesome, did Gu Lu use a flying dragon to hit his face? Someone told me before that because of the Cthulhu series, Gu Lu has a very high status in Big Bang, but I didn’t really believe it. Now I believe it. It’s okay to dance ballet in a minefield?! ]

Fenghua Yuanwu: [I feel this book is very good, a bit like "The Story of the Editorial Department" @水栖鹿_Can you translate a few more sentences? I feel that many things are also in China...]
The immediate responses below were "Bold, what are you implying?", "What do you want to subvert?", "Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity" and so on.

In fact, it is not that exaggerated. Speech in China is still quite free. And the censorship of books is also very relaxed, especially for Gu Lu himself. In addition, this relaxation does not include online literature.

The book has not been published yet, but people in China are already looking forward to it.

Of the three films related to Gu Lu, only Love Letter has been released. The remaining two are The Wandering Earth and The Lord of the Rings.

It must be said that The Wandering Earth is mainly for the improvement of the domestic film production industry. For Gu Lu, apart from making money, it doesn't seem to be of any particular help.

But "The Lord of the Rings" is different. This series involves the development of foreign IP peripherals.

Of course, they also have one thing in common: The Wandering Earth and The Lord of the Rings were both released this year, with the former being released in China during the summer vacation in July. Director Guo Fan believes that the Student Union is a new box office force for science fiction films.

The latter will be released in theaters around the world in October this year. Anyway, this year will allow Gu Lu's wealth to have a good improvement...

Gu Lu has also seen the finished films of the two movies, and he said that the quality is quite good.

"Xiao Gu, in addition to the book published abroad, there should be other works in 2022, right?" President Jian asked.

"The 'World Architects' series has also been compiled and published abroad, including biographies of several literary masters written by me," responded Gu Lu.

Well, that’s right. These are not new works. President Jian asked whether there are any new works.

"Maybe this year or next, a long serious literary work will be released." Gu Lu said, "It's probably about some residents of a city in a certain country who suddenly suffer from 'blindness', and the symptoms spread rapidly. It's a rather fantastical story."

I can't tell much from the story outline alone, but I'm still quite excited. It's my first serious novel, isn't it worth being happy?

President Jian asked hurriedly, "So what does this story want to express?"

Gu Lu thought for a moment and said, "The word civilization, to be more precise, is a question about human civilization."
