The Goddess Shines on America

When the party at Sissy's house finally ended, it was almost early morning. Fortunately, it was not a party between high school students or college youths, and there was no deafening rock music roaring continuously, so the surrounding neighbors never complained to the police.

The guests began to leave one after another, and the sports cars drove away from No. 7 Wenton Street one by one without making too much noise of motors, and quickly passed six houses and turned into the street.

"As for the establishment of the new company, I would like to ask for your support. The screenwriter committee accumulates a large number of works every year, which is simply an inexhaustible treasure."

"Of course, I started shooting small movies. After all, the new company has limited funds, but first I have to solve a series of problems such as company location. Thank you for your support. When the first movie is previewed, I will definitely arrange you in the best position of!"

Standing at the door of his house, Mr. Lawrence kept saying goodbye to every departing guest, and the identity of each guest could almost be distinguished directly from their clothing, temperament and even appearance.

"These two must be graphic or fashion designers, that one is a painter, and then the one with the glasses must be a writer. And this... I think I've seen his movie?"

Alice stood in the garden and kept looking at every departing guest. However, although she knew that there were many Hollywood stars among them, they were undoubtedly actors who became famous in the 1970s and are now popular today. Where is she? can be familiar with?

"Marlon Brando and Al Pacino didn't show up. Is it because your father doesn't have enough face? Or are they just not here?"

"It's not just a gathering of the Hollywood industry, how many stars do you plan to have on stage?"

The dark green long dress shone softly under the street lamps. Sissy and Alice stood side by side in the garden aisle, watching the guests leave while arranging their long hair, and suddenly changed the subject.

"Alice, what do you think if I dyed my hair blonde?"

Alice stared at Sissy's black hair seriously, as if there were beetles hidden in the hair that was permed with a hair straightener: "Of course, blondes are always beautiful, but you If a temperamental girl keeps her black hair...do you know what mystery is? She's also very beautiful."

"Mystery? Understandable."

Obviously she was praised, so Sissy proudly raised her snow-white neck and shook her long hair intoxicated: "By the way, Alice, how is it? Tonight's party lasted for more than four hours. Have you met any interesting people?"

"interesting……"

Alice blinked, watching a film producer get into her flamingo sports car: "There is indeed one~"

Of course she wouldn't tell about Asimov, even if she was killed, Sissy would laugh at her to death!

"It's called John Speck. He's the chairman of Bantam Books. I think he's funny~"

Until now, recalling Speck's expression at that time, Alice still wanted to laugh.

It really doesn't give me any face, although that Speck introduced the plot with an impassioned tone, a very devoted look, and even pretended to be mysterious, and then waited for himself to marvel. Generally speaking, he is a very interesting uncle ...

However, the plot of the "Galaxy Empire" is really not up to the grade in her opinion.

After talking for a long time, isn't it just a sci-fi version of the Three Kingdoms?

The Galactic Empire spans 100,000 light-years, with 25 million planets inhabited, and a population of trillions, ah, that's amazing!

However, the country was founded for 10,000 years and then collapsed... Thanks to Speck being so excited, isn't it just doubled for five thousand years?

Although it is hard to say what the pace of life in the science fiction world is, but since the scale of the empire is described so grandly, according to the Chinese perspective, it must be a million years old, right? You know, this is based on a river system.

a thousand years?

well……

Speaking of which, Americans are unique in the world in their lack of history.

"Bantam's a big company,"

Unexpectedly, very inexplicably, Sissy became excited: "This is one of the largest paper book publishing companies in the world. Same name! Alice, do you know what the Penguin Company stands for?"

Alice touched her nose.

"Hmm... the Internet company with the most users in China and the most profitable one?"

"What's that? Hey, I told you it's England, okay?"

"Okay, okay, then what?"

Seeing Cici's excited appearance, Alice sighed helplessly.

Alice was a reading lover in her previous life. The Lord of the Rings is very good, Harry Potter is very exciting, and the Song of Ice and Fire is even better. You must buy it and keep it at home. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a serious fan.

But that's about it.

She didn't care about which publishing house, which book company, which book was republished, and which book sold well.

In fact, Alice was a serious anime fan in her previous life, and she had watched countless anime.

But in the same way, she is just "watching anime". At least in Baidu, the seiyuu list was always ignored, unless she had to recognize the classic voice of Rie Kugimiya or "Uncle Aizen", so I checked it out.

Alice still remembers an embarrassing incident until now.

In her previous life, she went to the Comic Con for the first time after graduating from high school, and suddenly saw the booth of the "Haruhi Suzumiya" series, and she was so excited that she almost fainted.

Suzumiya Haruhi's anime is her favorite!

But when she came to the front and back of the booth, she was dumbfounded.

The latest episode of "The Split of Haruhi Suzumiya" is on sale?

Haruhi Suzumiya still has manga! ?

So I quickly bought it and took it home. It turns out that Haruhi Suzumiya still has manga, so you have to read it carefully!

Then, there is the second step of being dumbfounded.

Not a manga, but a "light novel"?

Are light novels magical?

Can I eat it?

Then, Haruhi Suzumiya started with a complete set of light novels, but only read half of them after graduating from university.

Knowing it but not knowing why, this is what Alice has known about the entertainment industry for a long time.

I know "Guernica", but I have never Baidu Picasso; I have watched many movies, but I almost never pay attention to the actors, unless it is an old classic like Morgan Freeman; There are two full adaptations of the film, the Swedish and the Hollywood version of "Let strangers stay close"...

"Penguin Books!"

On the way to send Alice home, after learning that Alice had never heard of this company, Sissy was as excited as a powder keg on fire.

"It was established in 1936, and it is also part of the Longman Publishing Group, which was established in 1724. It is one of the best paper book companies in the world! You know, this company has several series of books. It is the flagship Penguin series, which has published a total of 5,000 books! What is the concept of 5,000 books? Even if you read one book a day, it will take more than ten years!"

"Hmm... Sissy..."

The corners of Alice's mouth twitched, she was ready to be beaten: "Excuse me, I mean please... what is a paper book?"

So, it was no surprise that she saw Cici showing a typical "defeated" expression.

"Paper book... so you don't even understand this concept?"

But seeing Alice humbly asking for advice, Sissy still gave a full explanation: "It's just a book made of paper..."

Yes, it's just a book made of paper...

Paperback books, hardcover books, set books, as long as they are not "board books" for children, they are all paper books. As for the latter, dozens of pages will be half an inch thick, with painted pictures and text, which can only be seen in the children's section. ,, or in other words, the painter's collection will only be used.

"You have read so many books for nothing, Alice!"

When the two walked to the door of No. 15, Sissy still did not forget to scold: "You have such a big bookcase at home, you don't know much about the cultural circle, and you haven't even heard of the definition of a paper book." Pass!"

"After all, I'm only twelve years old, okay? You have Mr. Lawrence as your father. What's so strange about knowing this? Now let me ask you, what are the basic features of the BASIC language? What is its relationship to assembly language? These are all Can you answer an entry-level question for me too?"

How could Sissy answer this kind of question, but she couldn't be convinced to admit defeat. She looked up at Alice's window on the second floor of Wang's house, put her hands on her hips, and snorted vigorously.

"I don't use a computer at all. What's so strange about not knowing a computer? You read so many books every day, but you don't know anything about it. It shouldn't be!"

Alice put her hands on her hips: "Then tell me, how much should I know?"

Sissy didn't reply immediately this time, but frowned hard and began to think.

Sissy knows that her good friend's brain is not ordinary, as can be seen from the router she made. Therefore, if you want to embarrass Alice, you must do it just right.

After a while, she smiled strangely and said, "Why don't you write a book for me to read?"

Alice blinked: "Let me write a book?"

Sissy folded her arms, held her head proudly, and smiled triumphantly: "You can write anything you want, I just want to see what kind of stories you can write with your pure science student's head. How about Ai Li Si, do you want to challenge yourself?"

Let a science student write a novel!

Sissy took it for granted that Alice would definitely burn all her brain cells for this.

"Well, that idea does seem interesting~"

However, Alice smiled brightly.

In her previous life and present life, she had read many, many books, and thanks to her extremely developed brain in this life, her memories of her previous life were as thorough as clear water. Although it is obviously difficult to recall every word of every book, as long as she has read it more than three times, she can definitely remember it exactly!

"No problem, just wait!"
