Chapter 694 Visiting the door
Maybe he thought Su Chen was a cultural person, so he gave him a pen.

Not expensive, not cheap either.

After all, courtesy is more important than affection.

Putting away the pen, Su Chen went out to get ready to deal with the cultural salon.

It is an eternal truth that birds of a feather flock together and people form groups.

It is difficult for other people to integrate into a circle composed of the same type of people.

This is especially true of the Beijing circle in the capital city. This is because of the particularity of the Beijing circle, which can be traced back to the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. These people are all children of the big courtyard, such as Jiang Wen, Wang Shuo, Ye Daying, Zheng Xiaolong, and Ma Weidu.

But when these people see Hai Yan, they still have to bow their heads and call Big Brother, because Hai Yan is a master in the Beijing circle, a big boss in the Beijing circle, and this has something to do with his family background.

It's just that Hai Yan is very low-key and never shows off his family background, unlike the later rich and official second generations.

Mr. Su is not satisfied with commercial success, because he cannot develop in Hong Kong all the time.

So it is still necessary to get to know these people, to convince these arrogant literati.

At this time, the literary circle in Beijing was pitifully small, there were only a few people who went around, and most of them were the children of the big courtyard, mainly because they had been exposed to literature relatively early, and they had this condition.

innate advantage.

But it is impossible for Ma Weidu to come to Su Chen specifically for the drafting, this logic is simply unreasonable.

But soon Su Chen knew why.

Because "Principles of Economics" is completely popular.

In the United States, it can be said that it is a mess.

Just last month, U.S. News & World Report reported that Principles of Economics has been used as an economics textbook by more than 300 U.S. universities.

The book "Principles of Economics" is now completely popular in the United States, and its best-selling speed and number of best-selling books have set a Guinness World Record.

And many newspapers also called Mr. Su a "mysterious oriental man".

Coupled with the span of his study time, these things are connected, and this sensation is naturally extraordinary.

The Monetary Economics Division of the National Bureau of Economic Research, a nonprofit think tank in Cambridge, Mass., as well as the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and the Congressional Budget Office are said to be hiring him.

It is said that people who have read this "Principle" think it is probably the most vivid and interesting one.

The whole book is full of strong humanistic enthusiasm, without any complicated mathematical formulas, and the graphs and curves are simplified to the extreme.

Even many experts in the field of economics are full of praise for this book, because this book lists the ten principles of economics in extremely simple language at the beginning.

Such as "people face trade-offs", "the cost of something is what is given up in order to get it", "rational people consider the marginal quantity" and so on.

Mankiw's comments on the book were also sent out by the media.

He said: "Our previous textbooks always complicated simple principles, and a large part of the reason we are tired of learning is because the textbooks are rigid and pretentious.

And awesome people can always describe advanced theories in simple language, and verify them with examples around us. There is no doubt that Su from China is such a person. "

These news have also caused a small-scale sensation in the country, and I believe that this sensational effect will soon spread to a wider area.

Su Chen didn't know these things yet, the editor Ma Weidu had already heard about them from his friends, so he came here.

Regardless of whether you can get a manuscript or not, you have to check your familiarity first.

Although this book has been published abroad for a year, for most young artists, this book is a holy book.

Only colleges and universities will circulate in a small range, but they are all in English and have not been translated.

Although the author of this book is Chinese, the real situation is like this.

If Su Chen hadn't been mentioned by name, no one would have known that the author of this book was Chinese.

Some mainland media said: "Economics may seem obscure on the surface, but the "Principles of Economics" written by Chinese economist Su Chen will make you feel that learning economics is actually a kind of enjoyment."

Hearing this news, Su Chen was at a loss. When will he become an economist?

……

Not waiting for him to set up that cultural salon.

Principal Gao brought Teacher Cheng to visit.

"Principal Gao, Teacher Cheng, please sit down." Su Chen hurriedly greeted, "No wonder I heard magpies calling when I got up in the morning. It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming."

Xue Yu, who was holding the child, was also surprised when he saw the two of them coming to visit, and greeted them.

Principal Gao looked at Su Zixian in her arms, and asked in surprise, "Is this your two?"

Xue Yu nodded. Although teachers and students are in love with each other, but now that they have children, it doesn't matter what the flood is.

"What's your name?" Teacher Cheng asked.

"It's Su Zixian." Xue Yu greeted them, and said, "Mr. Cheng, Principal Gao, please do your work first. I'll greet you later."

"It's okay, you are busy first, we are here today to find Su Chen." Principal Gao said.

Xue Yu left with the child in her arms, and asked Zhao Dongmei to serve tea by the way.

Looking at the unbelievably young student in front of him, Principal Gao sighed in his heart, why did he agree to his request in the first place.

Principal Gao spoke first, and said seriously: "Su Chen, we are here today because we actually want to invite you to teach those students."

To be honest, he blushed when he said this, after all, he agreed to Su Chen's request.

But today, he has the cheek to come to the door again, which is really unreasonable.

Su Chen smiled slightly, "To be honest, the reason why I didn't go to class is because I really have a lot of things to do, and if you are here for those two books, then I can provide a Chinese version for publication."

At the beginning, only the English version was signed with Harvard Business School for exclusive distribution. The reason why he wanted to keep the Chinese version was naturally for Su Chen to keep it for himself.

"Student Su Chen, let me thank you on behalf of those students." Teacher Cheng said, "I wonder when this Chinese version will be published?"

"I've prepared the manuscript, but I haven't found a publishing house. I believe it will be published soon." Su Chen thought for a while, "People's Education Press is quite suitable."

Principal Gao was still a little bit unwilling to give up, "Is it true that you can't go back to class?"

Su Chen shook his head: "It is true that I have my own affairs to be busy, so I hope Teacher Cheng and those professors will take more care of the class, and I don't think I can be a teacher yet."

"This……"

Principal Gao and Teacher Cheng looked at each other.

Both of them could see the helplessness in each other's eyes, so it was probably another trip for nothing today.

Teacher Cheng said: "There are more and more students studying abroad. Can you write something about the things that need to be paid attention to in the TOEFL test? It is to accumulate experience for those students."

Su Chen thought for a while, "Okay, then if I have time, I will write some."

"I thank you on behalf of those children." There was a kind of satisfaction from the heart in Teacher Cheng's eyes. This student really made her so satisfied.

It is really satisfying to be able to teach such a student.

Although this student did not return to school, no matter what, his future achievements are definitely not small.

The three chatted about recent events, and then Principal Gao and Teacher Cheng bid farewell.

On the way back, Principal Gao was very upset, "He talks about being busy all day long, and I don't know what he is busy with. I think he is trying to be lazy!"

Teacher Cheng pondered for a while, "I heard something about Su Chen..."
