The Passion of an Academic Rising Star

The day Han Shixiu left, the weather was fine.

Zou Sijiu sent Han Shixiu to the international airport in City B.

At that time, Han Shixiu asked Zou Sijiu to go back, and he just waited slowly, but Zou Sijiu did not agree, and stayed with him until they parted at the customs.

Han Shixiu didn't feel any discomfort on the plane.He can sit for hours, ten hours, dozens of hours... all without any problems, because he is usually in this position almost all the time.Although, recently Zou Sijiu often takes himself out for some exercise...

Zou Sijiu...Han Shixiu thought, he and Zou Sijiu became so close, he had never thought of it before.

Han Shixiu did not contact his senior brothers and sisters to pick him up. He took the bus to the house he had already rented with his big bags and small bags.There are three rooms in this apartment, each for three people.

After entering the room, Han Shixiu fiddled with the Internet first.After packing his luggage again, he was dumbfounded——

——Forgot to bring the cash that was specially prepared before leaving the country.

At that time, Han Shixiu carefully packed the money in a white envelope and put it in a conspicuous place. Before leaving and after changing clothes, he put it in a freshly sewn cloth pocket of pure cotton white underwear.However, in a hurry, Han Shixiu forgot to take off the underwear from the drying rack, but... put on another pair of ordinary floral underwear...

This... how can I do this... In this way, the money will not be enough...

In the dormitory of University T, one person has always lived in it, and no one has the key to the room.It's not good to ask Zou Sijiu to open the door and pick the lock, otherwise he will be regarded as a thief.

Although tuition, board and lodging are free, living expenses still need to be paid by oneself, and buying books also requires a lot of money.Now, Master Han can count the number of banknotes in his pocket with one hand.

Han Shixiu was a little worried, what should I do.In a foreign country, with no acquaintances.

Because he didn't want to ask his parents for money, Han Shixiu went to school with a computer on his back, and began to search for things that could make money on the Internet.

Looking around, Han Shixiu found an advertisement for a part-time translator.This company called "Yuanfang Translation" said that they don't need to go to the office, as long as they have a computer, they can undertake this task and promise good remuneration.

Han Shixiu immediately added the opponent's button.

The man asked Master Han some basic information.For example, education, major, etc.

When the other party heard that Han Shixiu was a Ph.D., he asked Han Shixiu mysteriously if he could write the thesis for him.

Of course Han Shixiu sternly refused.

On the issue of academic honesty, Han Shixiu can't back down even a step.

"That's it." The man said: "Okay, let's do the translation. We pay 20 yuan for a thousand words here."

"Oh……"

"There is a computer professional document that needs to be translated. The time is very urgent and the manuscript will be delivered in a month. Do you have time?"

Han Shixiu gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, yes."

As long as you sleep less, you should be fine.

"That's good," the other party immediately sent the file over.

When Han Shixiu saw it, he was both worried and happy.The worry is that it is indeed a very thick stack, and the joy is that this way you can earn a little more.

"This... seems to be a book, the full text translation... what is it going to do?"

"Look." The person who translated from Yuanfang said: "The client works in the industry and needs to read this book. I downloaded the English version, but I don't know foreign languages, so I need someone to translate it."

"This way..." Han Shixiu said, "It's not cheap."

This customer must love knowledge very much, otherwise how could he achieve this level.Thinking about it this way, the favorability of the other party doubles, and the heart is more inclined to take this part-time job.

"Then..." Han Shixiu knocked again: "Do we need to sign a contract?"

"Don't sign." The other party said, "Trust me."

"Oh..." This made people hesitate.

"Integrity is the foundation of doing business. I have been in the company for so many years and have always had a good reputation."

"Well……"

"And we are not a labor relationship, we cannot sign a contract. We are just an employment relationship."

"Um……"

"There are a lot of people who want to work with us, and none of them have even mentioned signing a contract. Even now, there are many candidates."

This means that if you don't agree, you have to find someone else...?

The other party saw that Han Shixiu had wavered, and said very generously: "How about this, how about I pay you a deposit of 500 yuan?"

Upon hearing that there was a deposit, Han Shixiu finally gave in completely.

When you arrive in a new place, you always need to buy a lot of things, for example, buying cutting boards, kitchen knives, toiletries...

"Okay." Han Shixiu finally typed a word quickly: "I'll turn it over."

The other party sent a handshake emoji, which probably means a happy cooperation.

500 RMB, arrived in the account soon.Han Shixiu took the card to withdraw the money. If you use the UnionPay card to withdraw cash abroad, you have to deduct a little handling fee, and the remaining money... Han Shixiu counted. Some green vegetables.

Han Shixiu doesn't know how to cook.He only made one meal, and the one failed meal was the one when Zou Sijiu kicked all the stools over.But before leaving this time, the parents at home taught Han Shixiu a few simple handicrafts.

——Since taking over this translation job, Han Shixiu has been working hard on this part-time job every day.

Naturally, he would go to classrooms and laboratories during the day, but when he came back at night, he would sit at the desk and read carefully, often until dawn.Then he fell on the bed and slept for three or four hours, then got up again, and continued to work.He set a task for himself, and if he did not complete the quota for the day, he could not get under the covers.After two weeks passed, Han Shixiu often felt his eyelids were clenched, his whole body was weak, and he was light-headed.Fortunately, after 20 days, Han Shixiu still completed the task on time.

But who knows, after the thing was sent, the other party never heard from it again.

Han Shixiu asked several times on the Internet, but did not get a reply.Originally, it was good, as long as the client nodded and the manuscript passed, they could get paid immediately.

Obviously, Han Shixiu was deceived.

But the strange thing is that Han Shixiu didn't feel particularly angry.

To him, it seemed like a trivial matter.Anyway, the loss is only money, and material things will not have an essential impact on life, although the consequence of this situation is that you have to find a part-time job again.

……

——One day, after dinner, returning home, after Han Shixiu counted the number of his papers, he secretly began to fantasize that he was the Taishan Beidou of the academic world.

I am highly respected, and I am very familiar with several giants in the computer industry today——

For example, Professor Mai Xiu from G University in New York has always admired each other...

Han Shixiu opened the mailbox and wrote in English solemnly: "Dear Mai Xiu, I just read your article published in the latest issue of XX magazine, and once again I feel that many of my views coincide with yours. Congratulations to you again This field has made outstanding contributions. It just so happens that next month I will be invited to New York to give a lecture to the Ph.D. Where? We can have dinner together and discuss topics we are interested in. Of course, I also welcome my wife to come with me. I will contact you again after I get the itinerary and agree on a specific time. Please write back and let me know if it is possible next month see you?"

The inscription reads: Bests, Shixiu.

Hmm... I don't know what kind of words Zou Sijiu used to use to end his letters in English.

After that, Han Shixiu sent the letter to another mailbox of his own, pretending that it was sent to Mai Xiu who actually didn't know who Han Shixiu was.

Of course Han Shixiu knew it was just YY.However, when writing letters, thinking that I am Taishan Beidou, I still feel a deep sense of happiness.

Every time I enter a role, I can't restrain the sweetness in my heart.

Unexpectedly, 1 minute later, this email called "Maxiu, how are you doing?" received a reply!

Look at the sender, Zou Sijiu!

It was only then that Han Shixiu realized that when he sent it just now, because he suddenly thought of Zou Sijiu, he... unconsciously filled in Zou Sijiu's email address in the "To" column.

Thinking of it this way, I felt ashamed.

Han Shixiu closed his eyes and opened the reply letter abruptly.

— also written in English.

There is only one sentence in it: "Next month? I will try my best."

Signed: Yours, Matthew.

It turns out that Zou Sijiu likes to use "your XX" to sign his name?

Although he knew that Zou Sijiu's reply was just pretending to be Professor Mai Xiu, and just perfunctory to satisfy his own fantasy, but Han Shixiu really felt warm in his heart.

"That..." Han Shixiu replied with a fever on his face, "I'm sorry... I sent it by mistake... I accidentally sent it to you..."

I wanted to explain it, but in the end I still don't know how to explain this ridiculous behavior.

Over there, Zou Sijiu clicked on the chat window: "Did you do anything stupid recently?"

After thinking about it for a while, Han Shixiu told Zou Sijiu about being cheated by the translator, and was prepared to be scolded by Zou Sijiu.

But Zou Sijiu did not.

He said: "You search the Chinese book titles you have translated on the Internet."

what……

Although he thought it was a bit strange, Han Shixiu did it anyway.

The result of the search is that the translation of "XXXXXXX,XXXXXXX"... will be published next month.

The brief introduction is exactly the same as that translated by Han Shixiu.

But... the name of the translator is not Han Shixiu.

Looking at his resume, he turned out to be a lecturer at a prestigious university.

"I..." Han Shixiu said, "The agency lied to me... Yuanfang Translation Company lied to me...Obviously, they are looking for the shooter, they are... looking for the shooter..."

"Tell me that person's name." Zou Sijiu said, "I'll go get the money back."
