Chapter 34 A Manuscript of [-] Words 【Recommendation Ticket and Collection】
After Zhou Guyuan finished reading it, he immediately called Liang Shuying.
Tell the latter it will be done in two days.
After hearing this, Liang Shuying looked at each other.
Are young people nowadays so arrogant?
Three manuscripts, a total of [-] words, completed in two days?
It's not elementary school students' composition, it's that simple.
This is a doctoral dissertation. Although it is an excerpt of paragraphs, it is very good to be able to read and understand it. It is even more difficult to translate it.
Not to mention, it must meet the standards of "faithfulness, expressiveness, and elegance".
That was even more difficult.
Some people, given him a year, may not be able to get it done.
Even if there are many senior translators, few are willing to accept such manuscripts.
Because the paper needs to be published, if the words do not convey the meaning, it is really ridiculous.
What's more, this involves very professional knowledge, and the translated manuscripts of those who are not majors or related majors are completely different.
After hanging up the phone, Liang Shuying sneered: "We'll see."
In the next two days, Zhou Guyuan began to translate.
On the first day, three manuscripts were briefly translated.
On the second day, review directly and review word by word.
The most difficult thing is to translate from Chinese to English, because it is easy to miss the meaning of words.
After all, Chinese people's English vocabulary is generally not very good.
For Zhou Guyuan, these are not problems.
He is a master who has memorized several books such as Oxford Advanced Dictionary and Collins Advanced Dictionary.
Although many advanced and extremely difficult words have been forgotten, it is still no problem to deal with a few manuscripts.
In class, Guo Xunxin saw that he had been acting strangely for the past two days, not talking or listening to the class, so he asked:
"Fourth, what have you been doing these two days?"
"make money."
"Make money? These manuscripts in your hand? Did you translate them?"
"Well, do some part-time work."
"Let me see."
After reading it, the fourth elder didn't respond for a long time, and finally held back a sentence:
"Third child, it's also a nine-year compulsory education, why are you so awesome?!"
In the manuscript he held in his hand, he could not understand many English words.
But Zhou Guyuan has already translated it proficiently.
It can be seen how much it hit him.
Zhou Guyuan glanced at him and said nothing.
After sorting out the three manuscripts in his hand, he sent them to Liang Shuying.
Liang Shuying over there replied to him quickly and asked him to wait for an hour.
She wants to check it out.
However, within half an hour, her call came:
"Mr. Zhou, you are not hiring a master, are you? Why is the quality so high?"
"Director Liang, you don't even believe what you said, do you?"
"No, the quality of this translation is really good, it's a mess, it makes me feel like I've found a treasure"
"That's right, so did I pass the interview?"
"As long as you can maintain that quality all the time, it's fine."
"So, can we discuss the price? At the same time, settle the money?"
The corners of Zhou Guyuan's mouth were slightly raised, and he pointed out the theme directly, lest she still go around in circles.
"As for the price, according to your translation quality, how about 120 thousand words?"
"Director Liang, won't your conscience hurt for this price?"
Zhou Guyuan sarcastically said without hesitation, bullying newcomers can't bully Fa like this, right?
What's more, although he is a rookie, the translated manuscript is definitely not something a rookie can do.
Liang Shuying's face turned red when he pissed her off, but luckily she has a thick skin.
"How about 150?"
"180 thousand words, sign the contract if it's OK, if not, I'll find another company. In addition, I only sent half of the manuscript I just sent to you, and you have to pay for the remaining half."
Liang Shuying was speechless. She didn't expect this guy, who had never met before, to be so experienced and well versed in the unspoken rules of the translation industry.
Since she couldn't deceive the other party, she could only say openly:
"That's fine, Mr. Zhou, we've made an agreement, the price is 180 for a thousand characters, tell me your Alipay account number, and I'll transfer the finance to you."
"Thank you boss, wish us a happy cooperation!"
After Zhou Guyuan hung up the phone, he sent his Alipay account via email.
Not long after, an Alipay payment reminder came from the mobile phone.
"Alipay received 1980 yuan."
Eleven thousand words, 180 yuan for a thousand words, no problem.
Seeing that she transferred the money so readily, Zhou Guyuan also sent the rest of the manuscript very simply.
However, when he opened the mailbox, he saw another email from the other party.
Five manuscripts, marking the delivery time.
He opened them one by one to look at them, and just said a damn thing.
Because these five manuscripts are all over [-] words, and the longest one is actually [-] words.
After a brief browse, I found that the difficulty is not low at all.
Just as she was about to call Liang Shuying, the other party called.
"Mr. Zhou, have you received the email? There are five manuscripts in total. Please translate them as soon as possible and deliver them within five days.
By the way, the deposit has been given to you by Alipay, you can check it yourself. "
Tsk, strong woman, the call comes quickly and hangs up even faster.
Just after hanging up the phone, the mobile phone received the information of Alipay.
This time the amount in the account was larger, a total of 3000 yuan.
Five manuscripts with a total of [-] words.
If the translation is completed and the quality passes the standard, then it will be 14940 yuan.
After finishing the review within five days, Liang Shuying's downfall was really one after another.
If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely not dare to respond.
However, Zhou Guyuan wanted to face the difficulties.
Eighty thousand words is a lot, so he asked the teacher for leave directly.
Fortunately, he only needs to ask for two days off, because the next three days will be the National Day holiday.
After taking a good vacation, he stayed in the dormitory and worked hard to type.
It took three days to finally translate the [-]-word manuscript.
Work more than twelve hours almost every day.
The longer the working hours, the higher the efficiency of work.
The other three people in the dormitory were shocked by Zhou Guyuan's state.
When everyone is still studying and spending money from their parents, you actually start working and earn money by yourself?
And it's a high-end translation work that they can't do at all, so this hits no one.
Zhou Guyuan ignored them and concentrated on his work, unable to extricate himself.
Others don't know the future of the three people in the dormitory, but Zhou Guyuan knows it all too well.
Although Xu Changqing, the boss, is studying Japanese, when he graduated, he not only got a first-level certificate in Japanese, but also got a certificate equivalent to a fourth-year English diploma in German as a second language.
In addition, the boss has also passed the eighth year of English specialization.
It's so awesome.
You know, the pass rate of special eight is very low.
What's more, English is only equivalent to his third foreign language.
The second child is not bad either, with Japanese Level [-] and Catti Japanese Level [-], and the second foreigner is French, and has also obtained a certificate.
The fourth child is close, and only passed the eighth grade, but he is first-rate in picking up girls.
The girl Guo Xunxin picked up in college was indeed a big beauty, but he only met him in the second semester of his freshman year.
Therefore, there are four people in the dormitory, no one is bad.
Of course, now it seems that Zhou Guyuan is one step ahead.
One day, when the fourth child came back to the dormitory after studying at night, he asked a lot:
"Third, how much money have you made these days?"
Hearing the words, the boss and the second child immediately turned their eyes over curiously.
In the past few days, their hearts were like a cat scratching, they all wanted to know how much money Zhou Guyuan had made.
The standard of measurement is how much is a thousand words.
