Era: Beginning from the Modu Translation Studio

Chapter 132 The Coke Advertisement That Turned Pan Hong Over ([-] in [-])

The year before last, Huang Zhan and Lin Yanni jointly opened an advertising company "Huang and Lin".

The two great masters of copywriting agreed with each other that they would quit after only ten years of work.

The result really did what it said.

However, in just these ten years, Huang Zhan not only wrote the slogan "Xerox typewriter, we are familiar with each other" for Fuji Xerox,
He also used the phrase "Once Remy Martin drives, good things will come naturally" to complete Xiangjiang's most luxurious and rich ten years.

"Where can I find Yunying in Lanqiao?" Hu Xiao muttered to himself, then looked Jiangshan up and down: "I said earlier, if anyone says you are uneducated, I will be the first to say no."

"You still understand me," Jiang Shan picked up the noodle bowl and touched Hu Xiao: "Go one."

Hu Xiao sipped his noodle soup: "Broken Blue Bridge, that's it."

Fan Zhiwen sat aside and smiled: "Me too, Editor Jiang, I'll treat you to dinner today!"

After he finished speaking, he looked down at the dishes on the table, and regretted it a second later.

"It's the first time we've met, how can I let you treat me?" Besides, this is all about buying tickets first and then picking up the goods, Jiang Shan said politely: "In the future, even if we know each other, there will be opportunities."

Fan Zhiwen nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, I will come next time."

"Third," Li Ruocheng asked concerned, "How is your painting of Les Miserables going?"

"I haven't touched a penny." Jiang Shan has always been uninterested in tragedies: "To be honest, I don't have a clue about this book."

Li Ruocheng frowned: "I can still help you with translation, but I almost can't help with painting."

"You were almost there?" Hu Xiao almost choked.

"I don't take translations," Jiang Shan nodded, "I just don't want to draw!"

The workload of the "Les Miserables" comic strips in the previous life can be called a masterpiece.

It took a while for Fan Zhiwen to realize that he had met his colleagues at the same table: "Comrade, are you also translating "Les Miserables"?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shan asked in confusion, "What? Is there still someone translating this book?"

According to Jiang Shan's understanding, only the first two volumes of "Les Miserables" in this world have been published.

Fan Zhiwen shook his head, smiled wryly and said, "I'm not that capable, but the translation of this book has already been completed by a master translator."

"Li Dan has finished the translation?" Li Ruocheng suddenly excitedly said, "It's not easy, but I really have to congratulate him."

"You also know Mr. Li?" It's not right to think about it carefully, Fan Zhiwen asked: "Don't you know that Mr. Li Dan has passed away?"

Li Ruocheng staggered, and the small spoon in his hand clattered into the bowl.

"Passed away?" The old man's lips trembled uncontrollably.

Jiangshan looked at both sides: "Are you two talking about the same person?"

Fan Zhiwen also wanted to confirm: "The Mr. Li Dan I am talking about is the translator of "Les Miserables" currently on the market."

"Oh," Li Ruocheng sighed, "His lover is also a translator, named Fang Yu."

Fan Zhiwen's eyes gradually dimmed: "It's...they, Mr. Li Dan went...not long after he regained his freedom."

Hearing this, Li Ruocheng's eyes couldn't hold back the tears:
"Xiao Jiang, you would never have imagined that behind the book "Les Miserables", there is also a tragic world..."

No one would have imagined that the birth of the Chinese translation of "Les Miserables" actually took 50 years.

The people who translated this book are a couple.

They started translating from the year they got married.

The bride is a French teacher.

In the class she taught, there was a student who later wrote "Yellow River Cantata", Xian Xinghai.

It was precisely because of protecting this avant-garde student that Fang Yu lost his job as a French teacher.

A year after their marriage, the couple finally completed the dubbing of the first two volumes of "Les Miserables".

As soon as the front foot was sent to the Zhabei Commercial Press, the back foot encountered the "January and February 1932th Incident" in [-].

A bomb blew up the Commercial Press, and the translated manuscripts were reduced to ashes.

Yu Dan and his wife were very heartbroken, but the more the world is like this, the more they want to translate "Les Miserables".

Within half a year, another translation was sent to the Xiangjiang Commercial Press.

Yu Dan and his wife, who never received a reply, waited for five years.

Immediately afterwards, the Anti-Japanese War broke out in an all-round way.

In 1954, just when they were about to give up, Li Dan and Fang Yu received a letter from the Ministry of Culture, and the original translation was handed over to them.

The Ministry of Culture not only wanted to release these two volumes, but also invited them to translate all the next three volumes.

The couple immediately stated that they would definitely complete the tasks assigned to them by the organization.

In this way, in 1958, the first two volumes of "Les Miserables" were published.

A few years later, the third volume of "Les Miserables", which has been printed, is about to come out.

But, WG is also here.

The "Les Miserables" as a negative teaching material were all thrown into the fire, and Li Dan, Fang Yu and his wife were subsequently arrested.

This level is 12 years.

After being released, Yu Dan is already nearly 70 years old.

However, the first thing he did after gaining freedom was to go to the old house that had been reduced to ashes, and dig out the translation manuscripts buried deep in the soil.

Looking at the fragmented manuscripts that had been bitten by mice, the old man picked up the translation pen again without saying a word.

In this way, under the silent company of his wife Fang Yu, the translation of the fourth volume of "Les Miserables" was completed half a year later.

It is said that there are bloodstains all over from the beginning to the end, and this translation has become a well-deserved work of the translator Li Dan.

One morning, after waking up, Fang Yu walked lightly to his wife's desk.

As in the past, she was about to persuade her husband to go to bed to rest for a while, but found that Li Dan had fallen asleep lying on the table.

This time, the old man slept very peacefully...

"After that, Teacher Fang Yu didn't say a word for nine months,"

Speaking of this, Fan Zhiwen burst into tears: "She took over teacher Li Dan's translation and completed the translation of the last volume of "Les Miserables"..."

"Ugh!"

Jiang Shan sighed with Uncle Li, and Hu Xiao who was opposite had already lit his third cigarette.

On the road outside the small restaurant, the bicycles coming and going would make a series of crisp bells from time to time.

"Is Li Dan's tomb in Pujiang?" Li Ruocheng asked quietly, "I want to visit him."

Fan Zhiwen didn't speak, and walked over to borrow a pen and paper from the waiter at the window.

After that, a note with the name of the road was handed over to the old man...

On the way back to the small courtyard, Jiang Shan persuaded him worriedly: "Uncle Li, call me when you go."

"Why did I tell you?" The old man put his hands behind his back and looked ahead: "I'll go and come back quickly by myself, without delaying anything."

"I'll go and come back with you!"

"It's okay, I'm getting old now." Li Ruocheng glanced at the sky, "It's a bit frightening to go there alone."

The two looked at each other and smiled together.

At this time, Jiang Shan remembered the conversation he had with Huang Yongyu in Guangzhou.

"After I went to the farm, I was mainly responsible for looking after the animals. The cows are very honest and leave as soon as they are chased away. The pigs are too cunning, and they fight wits and courage with them back and forth. I like to chase the chickens best, and I can pick up hot eggs every time... "

After hearing his description, Yu Sigui began to yearn for the life of living in a cowshed.

People!

In the director's office of Pujiang TV Station.

Jiang Shan, who delivered the interview materials, saw Pan Hong sitting on the sofa as soon as he entered the door.

A pair of big eyes were flushed from crying, and after seeing Jiangshan, he quickly lowered his head and wiped away his tears.

"I..." Jiang Shan suddenly felt that he came at the wrong time: "How about I come in later?"

"It's already here," Director Gu was worried that there was no third party present: "Hurry up and sit down."

Jiang Shan raised the file bag in his hand to Director Gu, who immediately nodded his head: "This...Comrade Pan Hong is in some trouble at work..."

At this time, Jiang Shan had already sat down on the sofa.

In 1978, Pan Hong starred in a movie "The Distressed Laughter".

After the filming was over, this film, which won her numerous awards, really made Pan Hong cry and laugh.

No matter what age, the director and the heroine have endless conversations.

What's more, the director of this drama is still the talented Yang Yangan in the 7s and 80s.

This director Yang has a characteristic, every time he shoots a movie, he will fall in love with a lesbian.

And these lesbians are also willing to let him love.

Export Yang has produced countless good films, such as "The Girl and the Thief", "The Private Life of a Female Mayor"...

Among them, the most distinctive is a movie called "Three Girls".

After he directed half of the film, one of the teenage girls became a young woman.

The leaders of Shanghai Film Studio immediately fired the young woman.

But Yang Yangan was unaffected and continued to make films.

However, the title of the film has changed from "Three Girls" to "Two Girls".

Such a character, Pan Hong is naturally not immune.

Even when it was too late to hide the matter, Shanghai Film Studio still insisted on protecting Pan Hong.

However, Hong Rong, Yang Yangan's lover, found a love letter from Pan Hong in the office drawer.

She was so angry that she posted the love letter on the newspaper column of Shanghai Film Studio regardless of the consequences.

Now, Pan Hong's life is not easy.

Shanghai Film Studio couldn't guarantee it even if it wanted to.

Tonight, the advertisement of Happy Coke will be broadcast on Pujiang TV, and Pan Hong is afraid that her incident will have a negative impact on the advertisement.

So, I took the initiative to go to the TV station to "confess".

"I have failed the organization's trust in me..." Pan Hong, holding a white handkerchief, couldn't stop crying.

A woman's cry is as overwhelming to a man as her moaning.

Jiang Shan sat silently on the sofa, trying to be as transparent as possible.

"Xiao Jiang," Director Gu rubbed his forehead: "Will the matter about her affect the advertisement?"

Jiang Shan was stunned, and it must have had an impact: "If it is handled properly, it should be... okay!"

"How can it be handled properly?"

"Editor Jiang, what should I do?"

"Comrade Pan Hong," Jiang Shan discussed the matter: "Who do you think should apologize to after this happened?"

Of course Pan Hong knew it well, but: "...she won't forgive me."

Faced with Hong Rong's cruel eyes, Pan Hong felt that the other party just wanted to bury herself on the spot.

Jiang Shan tried his best to be as gentle as possible: "Have you tried it? Now that you know you made a mistake, you should sincerely ask the other party's forgiveness."

Director Gu also wanted to resolve this matter quickly: "Comrade Pan Hong, we are all easy to talk about here, the key still depends on your own attitude."

After a while, Pan Hong nodded.

"Okay," her eyes flickered with determination, and tears gradually hung on her cheeks: "I'll go in a while, and I won't leave until I get her forgiveness."

Jiang Shan laughed a bit: "Pay attention to your attitude, you still have to use... tears to arouse emotion."

Pan Hong suddenly blinked her big eyes and looked at Jiang Shan.

Only then did Jiang Shan see those eyes clearly, they were really big!

When Jiang Shan was walking on the sidewalk with a bag of Happy Coke, Pan Hong beside him suddenly smiled wryly:
"Editor Jiang, do you think... my acting career is coming to an end?"

It will be fine in the future.

After the incident, Pan Hong, who had been in constant contact with Hong Rong, introduced a friend of hers to him and they got married.

Hong Rong is also considered loyal. After learning about Pan Hong's poor family affairs, he not only forgave him, but also kept the secret.

Those things in the showbiz, come and go are all drama.

Jiang Shan sighed: "Since I like acting so much, I will just concentrate on acting in the future."

Messy things, it's best not to touch them!
Pan Hong suddenly took a few steps forward quickly, then turned around and stopped.

At this time, Jiangshan also stood firm.

The west-slanting sun dyed the sky red!
Pan Hong, who was twisting her hands behind her back, her eyes were red again: "Editor Jiang, can you promise me one thing?"

Jiang Shan nodded, and he could probably guess it.

Pan Hong's voice was already trembling: "You...don't post these things about me."

"Who do you think I am, Jiang Shan?" Jiang Shan didn't want to disturb the advertisement of "Happy Coke":

"I can't control others, but your affairs will never appear in the "Oriental Metropolis Daily."

"Well," Pan Hong bit her lips, gratefully said: "Editor Jiang, you are my friend and Pan Hong is committed."

As long as she can create this level.

In the late 70s, the media hadn't learned to report the bad things about stars.

But even so, the attack power from Pan Hong's surroundings could eat her up.

Especially some actors, after discovering that Shanghai Film Group no longer tried to protect Pan Hong.

The gossip did not stop for a moment.

Once Shanghai Film Group decides to give up, even if Hong Rong can forgive her, Pan Hong's acting career will have a sad ending.

At this time, Director Gu, who was nervous about the "Happy Coke" commercial, made a fuss for Pan Hong.

Even more headaches.

In the small courtyard on Anhe Street, Jiang Shan sat on the sofa in the dining room and read the newspaper.

Today's "Oriental Metropolis Daily" has published an advertisement for "Happy Coke" fancy prize promotion.

[Drink Happy Coke and bring happiness home!

From now on, in order to thank the general public, Happy Coke has fully launched the activity of opening a bottle to see happiness...]

Today, the same advertisements appear in newspapers in major surrounding cities.

Just as he was watching enthusiastically, Jiang He beside him tapped on the table: "Here we come!"

Jiang Shan immediately looked at the TV.

With a brisk music, Pan Hong, wearing a light yellow dress, appeared on the TV screen with a happy face...

As soon as the camera turned, when the cap of the soda bottle of Happy Coke was pried off, a close-up zoomed in on the words "one more bottle".

Immediately afterwards, the words "one more dime", "one more box"... hit the TV screen one after another.

Pan Hong, who was full of smiles, held up a soda bottle and said to the screen: "Drink Happy Coke and bring happiness home."

"Pan Hong is so beautiful," the younger sister Jiang Chuan was fascinated by watching the TV, "The dress on her body is also beautiful."

"Third Uncle," Jiang Xiaobai climbed onto Jiang Shan's lap, "I want to drink Happy Coke."

"Look," Jiang Shan hugged his eldest nephew, "Even people like this have felt the power of advertising."
