Chapter 4

Wang Jian went to the cartoon stand and saw a lot of people who shouldn't be in the Bronx bookstore.

There are gentlemanly, scholar like people, Western-style people, business elite like people, and even a few middle-aged people.

And these people are actually discussing the plot of spider man?

Is spider man so popular?

Wang Jian is also at the back of the line. He wants to buy a copy of Spiderman. What is it about?

Can make so many people crazy about it.

After waiting for an hour and a half, it was finally Wang Jian's turn.

After paying $4, he got a thin comic book.

It's called, like, a booklet?

Seeing many customers squatting outside the bookstore with comics, Wang Jian also squatted down.

Ten minutes later, Wang Jian raised his head.

This book

That's great!

On the surface, the protagonist is a little transparent who has no sense of existence. He has a secret love for the goddess and dare not express it.

But actually, he's a superhero with special powers.

He not only helped the goddess to solve many problems, but also fell in love with the goddess with his new identity.

The whole world looks down on me. Only I know that I'm really cool. I can't help but poke into the heart of most people who are not satisfied with their work.

The only drawback is that it's too short.

Wang Jian stood up, touched his pocket, gritted his teeth, and went to buy a single volume of spider man.

Continue squatting in the corner and look up.

More than ten minutes later, his eyes were not focused on the people coming and going in front of the bookstore, and his brain was thinking about the plot of the comic book.

The same pig eat tiger, the same save the world.

It's just, it's a bit monotonous?

What about beauties?

People who look down on them are slapping at each other?

Wang Jian pondered for a moment, and felt that these two "Spider Man" were not as cool as the "I am the great mage" in his mind.

As for rationality.

Spider bite mutation, and eat sweet potato magic infinite, big difference?

Except that comics have more pictures than novels and are more reasonable, are others similar?

Moreover, the novel pure text also has advantages and disadvantages.

After all, there are no pictures, which can carry more content and make people feel better. There is no sense of separation of comic books.

Or

try?

Wang Jian hesitated for a moment and stood up.

If you want to turn the net text in your mind into an English novel, you must have a certain level of English.

Although, after crossing over, the level of English is obviously much higher than that of the previous life.

But, isn't it enough to write novels?

He put the comics in the depository, then went to the back of the bookstore and found English reference books.

After some comparison and checking, I think Oxford English dictionary is more suitable.

Take a look at the pricing.

$450?

This NIMA robbery?

At this time, the shop assistant came over, looked at Wang Jian who was obviously hesitant, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Sir, there is a second-hand Oxford English Dictionary over there. The price is only one third of the new edition. The content should be similar."

After that, he pointed to a paper box in the corner of the bookstore.

Hearing the speech, Wang Jian quickly put down his thick dictionary and walked over.

After searching several boxes, he finally found a big dictionary, which was published five years ago.

The book is well preserved, except that some pages have traces of painting, there are no missing pages.

The most important thing is that the price is only $120, which is more than three times cheaper.

Wang Jian came to the counter with the thick reference book and settled the bill.

At this time, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

Thinking of going to work in the community in the afternoon, he asked for a fairly strong plastic bag and put in the dictionary and two comic books.

Then he bought two more hamburgers and headed for the bus stop.

At this time, there are people outside the bookstore from time to time to buy the latest version of spider man.

After pouring out two buses, Wang Jian came to the place where he worked in the community yesterday.

The old man, John, was already sitting in the sun, squinting in the sun.

Wang Jian looked around and found that there was no one he knew very well.

Even a few yellow people look more like Korean and Japanese.

So he sat next to the old man.

The old man turned his head and looked at Wang Jian. Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the bag of the bookstore.

"You went to buy books?" He asked."Well, sort of." Wang Jian was a little embarrassed.

People who haven't graduated from high school want to write books?

He always feels a little embarrassed.

"Young people, study hard. There's no shame." The old man said, "don't be like them. They only know how to fool around."

Said, also refers to those who gather to smoke, exchange which bar to go to in the evening.

This old man is very broad.

Wang Jian nodded casually, took out the dictionary and began to read it.

Although, now I can also translate "I am the great mage" to make people understand.

But when writing a novel, you have to make the words as beautiful as possible, right?

For example, in the description of the female owner in the book, it's better to have a deep fish and a wild goose than to have a smooth plate and a fat breast and buttocks.

But unexpectedly, the old man named John said, "what's the use of reading a dictionary? You have to read some skill books, such as civil engineering

Wang Jian was a little impatient and said casually, "I want to write a book. Of course, I read a dictionary. What's the use of civil engineering? Are there still few unemployed engineers? "

The old man was about to speak when the community worker Lily had arrived.

The crowd began to gather, then called in and assigned tasks.

When everyone started to work with tools, the woman named Lily left Wang Jian.

And said to him: "John is a famous civil engineer, but recently his family has changed, his wife and daughter died, and he also has cancer. You usually pay attention to it. You can help as much as you can. "

After hearing this, Wang Jian couldn't help looking back at the old man.

I just think his thin body is more rickets.

So Wang Jian nodded and agreed.

On the way to work, the old man was still nagging Wang Jian that he should learn more about technology.

God TM technology, is that free?

He can't afford the exaggerated tuition fees of the University.

In order to change the topic, Wang Jian could only say, "I want to write a novel, or I'll write something first, and you can have a look and give me a comment?"

The old man thought for a while and said, "yes, but I only published books on civil engineering. I can't guarantee that your novels meet the public taste."

Books?

In the United States, can anyone publish a book?

Wang Jian looked at the old man with a little surprise and said, "OK, just give me some advice."
