After understanding the intention of Wang Xuejun's call, Li Fan nodded secretly. There are indeed many works that are helpful to children's education.
The three works of "Hundred Family Names", "A Thousand Characters" and "Sound and Rhythm Enlightenment" are all classic works like the "Sanzi Jing".
Moreover……
Li Fan thought so in his heart, and suddenly his mind moved, he thought of a very influential and very high-selling children's science book in his previous life.
If you bring that work to the world, it would be a very good choice.
Therefore, Li Fan said on the phone: "Minister Wang, I did have an idea recently, and Minister Wang might be interested."
On the phone, Wang Xuejun’s voice was obviously very pleasantly surprised, "This is really great, Mr. Li Fan, you can talk quickly."
Li Fan smiled faintly and said, "Minister Wang, what do you think of the children's desire for knowledge?"
"The children's desire for knowledge?" Wang Xuejun said, "Mr. Li Fan refers to students who are motivated in learning? Honestly, there are not many students who are motivated."
Li Fan said: "Minister Wang is misunderstood. I mean the children's desire for knowledge about things they don't know. For example, in thunderstorm weather, why do we see lightning first and then hear thunder? For another example, Why is winter colder than the other three seasons?"
"This..." Wang Xuejun said with some uncertainty, "Similar to the desire for knowledge in this area, it shouldn't be bad. After all, children's curiosity is very heavy. Mr. Li Fan means..."
Li Fandao: "Just as Minister Wang thought, I plan to publish a popular science enlightenment book for children or teenagers. The name is "One Hundred Thousand Whys." In fact, the children's desire for knowledge is far greater than we thought. Stronger."
"Science enlightenment books for teenagers and children? "One Hundred Thousand Whys"?" Wang Xuejun was a little surprised, and quickly said: "Mr. Li Fan, there is no popular science books for teenagers and children in our country so far. For Li Fan Mr.'s idea is absolutely supported by the Ministry of Education. However, the way to write the book is to use the form of one question and one answer, and then the questions and answers will accumulate into a book?"
Li Fan said: "Well, that's it, one question and one answer accumulates into a book. Of course, since it is a children's science enlightenment book, it will definitely be matched with some cartoon patterns and other things, and I will draw it by myself."
Wang Xuejun pondered on the phone for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Li Fan, will this be too simple? Will there be a market after the launch? Will children be interested in it? Will they be willing to take the initiative to see and learn ?"
Li Fan smiled faintly: "Minister Wang don't have to worry, the children may be more interested than we thought."
Li Fan has absolute confidence in the market prospects of "One Hundred Thousand Whys".
You know, in the previous life, the cumulative circulation of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" exceeded 100 million copies.
This is only the distribution of the original edition, and the distribution of other pirated copies will undoubtedly be much more than 100 million copies.
In addition, books with the theme of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" are emerging in endlessly, and there are all kinds of editions.
Therefore, the real circulation of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" is already an astronomical figure that cannot be counted.
Why should we worry about children not interested in such a work? Is there a market?
On the phone, Wang Xuejun pondered again for a moment, and said: "I believe Mr. Li Fan's judgment, for Mr. Li Fan's work, our Ministry of Education will fully support it. However, this is a popular science book after all, about its release... "
Li Fan naturally understood what Wang Xuejun meant, and said with a smile: "Minister Wang, please rest assured. I naturally understand that the popular science books are not, nor are they comics, and there can be no mistakes. As a result, I will try out the trial version before publishing. Submit it to the Ministry of Education, ask relevant experts to check, review, and confirm that it is completely correct before publishing it on the market."
Wang Xuejun smiled and said, "I don't really believe in Mr. Li Fan, but there can be no mistakes. If this is the case, then I am waiting for Mr. Li Fan's good news."
Li Fan said: "I think I will not disappoint Minister Wang. I will hand over the first trial version to Minister Wang as soon as possible."
Wang Xuejun said: "Okay, then I will work hard for Mr. Li Fan. Finally, I will pay a New Year's greeting to Mr. Li Fan, and Mr. Li Fan will pay a New Year greeting to your family on my behalf."
Li Fan smiled and said: "I will pay a New Year greeting to Minister Wang, and I will also pay a New Year greeting to Minister Wang's family."
After that, the two made a few more polite words, and then hung up the phone.
"One Hundred Thousand Whys", Li Fan was a little excited and expectant, Wang Xuejun's phone call reminded him of this work suddenly.
The first edition of this work was published in the 1960s in the previous life. In the new century, six editions have been published. It is a scientific enlightenment book for adolescents and children of previous generations.
It has played a very active role in disseminating knowledge and popularizing science. It is synonymous with popular science books for children.
Now, it is time for such a work to serve the youth and children of this world.
"Li Fan, are you going to launch another new work on children's education?" Su Qing asked, with a bit of excitement and expectation in her eyes.
As a primary school teacher, Su Qing is obviously very concerned about works in this area.
Li Fan smiled and said, "This time it is an enlightenment book on popular science, and it can really help the children a lot."
"Science enlightenment reading materials, if they are created, will have a very significant meaning. So far, there is no science reading material about children's enlightenment in our country. Your kid's work will be the first. However, this is the case. The work is not easy to create, otherwise, the education experts have already created it. It's a simple question-and-answer method, are you sure you can?" This time it was Qin Lie who spoke.
Obviously, he also heard what Li Fan just called.
Li Fan said: "Of course, I'm very sure that such a simple method, coupled with various colorful cartoon images, will definitely have a market. After the official release in the future, maybe it can create a sales miracle."
"Our country is currently lacking a science enlightenment book for children. You kid, if you really have a market, it will have a very positive effect on popularizing scientific knowledge for children. Then, its meaning will never be. Under the "San Zi Jing"." This time it was Su Yilin who spoke.
Li Fan nodded and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will seriously create this work."
After that, several people discussed the issue for a while, and it was time for lunch.
The few people did not continue the discussion, but went to the main room to prepare for lunch.
