Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 236: Swedish Translation Publishing House

Kevin is the protagonist of tonight's banquet. There is no doubt that many people came over with champagne in their hands and toasted a few glasses with him at this time. Kaiwen Wang also met quite a few veterans who had long been successful in the British literary world.

These elders were so humble and kind after seeing Kevin won the title of Poet Laureate, and they were very impressed with him. At this time, they finally understood the difference between Kevin and his peers.

Jennings hadn't talked to Kevin since that time when he met with Kevin in Edinburgh. This time he took advantage of this opportunity to sit in a corner and talked with Kevin.

Jennings originally admired Kevin's talent very much. After Kevin won the title of Poet Laureate, he was even more sure that he hadn't missed it.

Jennings also said that after returning home, he would carefully read "The Collection of All Beings" several times, and if he could, he would select a few poems in it for British textbooks. After all, every song in this collection of poems is so wonderful, they can be used as templates for students to learn.

Kevin is very grateful to Jennings for his importance, so at this time he is also chatting with each other, while toasting to each other.

Tonight, the night is beautiful, and the air is full of romance and literature. But all this has to do with a person named Kevin, because of his award, he became the protagonist tonight. Perhaps, in his 20s, he won the highest-level honorary title in the British poetry world. This record is unprecedented.

Kevin also deeply believes that unless it is this parallel world, there will be a person who comes from the same earth as himself, and he has to love literature, and he has to have something called a literary memory system. Otherwise, this literary achievement of oneself will never be broken by anyone.

It was late at night when the banquet ended, and Kevin returned to the Prince Hotel room under the arrangement of the staff of the British Poetry Association. As he drank a lot tonight, he just lay down and fell asleep.

When I woke up the next day, it was already 12 noon. After sleeping so much, Kevin obviously felt a little dizzy. However, the immediate problem is to solve his stomach. and so. After washing, he went downstairs to enjoy a lunch.

After Kevin's lunch. I had to rush to the Royal Poetry Publishing House to sign the "Collection of All Beings". He hadn't fully signed the 1,000-volume signed version before the banquet started, so he had to get it done at this time.

When Kevin just walked to the door of the Royal Poetry Publishing House, Louis smiled and waved at him.

"Kevin, you are finally here, I thought you drank too much last night and forgot about it." Louis said with a smile.

"Haha, Louis, don't worry. I'm not drunk. I just overslept. Oh, what else do you want me to do? If not, I want to sign the rest first." Kevin also said with a smile To.

"Of course. An important customer is coming over this afternoon. This matter is related to you, so we have to go there together." Louis pretended to be mysterious.

"Oh! Customer? What kind of customer? What does it have to do with me?" Kevin asked curiously.

"That's it, you won the title of Poet Laureate not only surprised the British literary world, but also some surrounding countries have reported. Therefore, the Swedish side intends to translate your "Collection of All Beings" into their country for publication." Louis Speaking of.

"What? You mean "The Collection of All Beings" might be published in Sweden?" Kevin asked in surprise.

"Yes, this is such an excellent collection of poems, and they are also very interested. In the afternoon. The Swedish publishing house will go to London to talk to us about this matter. You are the author of "The Collection of All Beings", so this matter You have to be there too." Louis said.

Kevin signed a share contract with the Royal Poetry Press. According to the British laws of this parallel world, the author's consent must be obtained when publishing any channel development. Therefore, Louis had to invite Kevin to participate.

"The Collection of All Beings" can be published and distributed in other countries, which is a good thing, and of course Kevin will not refuse. Besides, this may give yourself an extra income, so why not do it? Sweden is the place where the Nobel Prize is awarded. Maybe as you slowly open the market, then the Nobel Prize in Literature will belong to you.

"Louis. I think I have no problem. After all, the collection of poems can be published in other countries, which is what every author hopes." Kevin said.

"That's good. You don't want to sign so fast now. Let's sit and drink tea in President Geraf's office. In the afternoon, we will go to receive the visitor from the Swedish publishing house. If possible. We will pay back then. To sign a contract." Louis confessed.

"Okay, it just happened that I drank a little bit last night, so I can drink more tea to clear my stomach and intestines."

So, Kevin walked into President Jerag's office with Louis, and then slowly drank tea in it. Although the tea made by the British is incomparable with the Huaxia on earth, it also has a unique taste in it. Kevin got used to it when he drank too much.

In the afternoon, Kevin followed Geraf, Louis and others to the London International Airport to receive the staff from the Swedish publishing house. A total of five people came this time, all from the same publishing house.

The name of this publishing house is Swedish Translation Publishing House, and when you hear the name, you know that it specializes in translating and publishing foreign works. Therefore, their translation of various language versions is relatively professional in Sweden.

The Royal Poetry Publishing House has already arranged a place for everyone to discuss with each other, so after meeting and introducing each other, everyone came to the agreed place together.

"Hello, Mr. Kevin, I'm really happy to meet you in person. The Collection of All Living Beings you wrote is amazing. This is the most perfect collection of poems I have ever seen. I have lived for half my life and have never seen you A collection of poems can be so good." said a slightly older elder.

Since the other party is from Sweden, after speaking, a young female interpreter next to him needs to speak again. Of course, it can be seen from the words spoken by the other party that the other party can speak English. Just like most people, when there is an interpreter, they usually don't communicate directly in English.

"Thank you for your compliment, it makes me very happy. I think I just wrote what I should write. As for whether it is good or bad, maybe God has the final say." Kevin said with a smile.

"A good word, God has the final say, Mr. Kevin really deserves to be the British Poet Laureate, and he speaks differently. Perhaps your work will have a very substantial market in Sweden. I am full of expectations for it. ."

With the words of the old man, the topic of foreign copyrights began to slowly open. The Swedish Translation Publishing House has clearly expressed their desire for the copyright of the translation of Kevin’s "The Collection of All Beings", and they also stated that they will use the most professional team to translate the "Collection of All Beings" ~www.NovelMTL.com~ and then Published in Sweden.

The Royal Poetry Publishing House and Kevin have already seen the sincerity of each other, and now Kevin also needs a foreign market. Therefore, they agreed to the publication of the Swedish version of The Collection of All Beings.

After agreeing to the other party's publishing requirements, the next step is to talk about the manuscript fee. The Swedish Translation Publishing House has stated that they will buy out all the Swedish text copyrights of "The Collection of All Beings", which means that they will be responsible for all the Swedish market related to the "Collection of All Beings" in the future.

Of course, this is also a way that many publishers choose when publishing works in other countries. After all, this way, they can have more flexibility in the market of the work, and also have more room for the sales and market of this work in the market of other countries. Channels have even greater benefits. Therefore, Kevin and the Royal Poetry Press have no objection to this.

"Everyone, since you don't have too many objections to our request, maybe we should talk about the cost of the Swedish edition of "The Collection of All Beings" next." The Swedish Translation Publishing House said at this time. (To be continued)
