Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Sure enough, as Latis said, the car stopped shortly after passing through the city hall. ◆⊕Chenyuan Literature Network .↗↗

"Okay, everyone, we have arrived at the address of our Swedish Translation Publishing House." Latis said happily.

At this time, Latis' colleagues also got out of the car very politely, and then opened the windows for Kevin, Louis and others.

Since it was written in Swedish, even though Kevin saw a few lines of black letters written on the door of the Swedish Translation Publishing House after getting off the car, he didn't know what they were trying to express. So he asked the interpreter of his entourage to explain it to himself.

"Mr. Kevin, the words on the wall are 'sincerity', 'respect' and 'fraternity'. This is the purpose of the Translation Publishing House." The translator explained at this time.

Kevin nodded, indicating that he understood the meaning of the words.

"Mr. Latis, the address of your Swedish Translation Publishing House seems to be quite large, and it really deserves to be one of the largest publishing houses in Sweden." Louis said politely.

"Haha, it's far worse than your Royal Poetry Publishing House. Oh, let's go, I'll take you in for a visit." Latis said enthusiastically.

So, Latis led Kevin, Louis and others into the company of Swedish Translation Publishing House. At this time, Latis also acted as a tour guide, explaining the stories of everything he saw along the way.

Knowing that Britain's youngest poet laureate was coming, many people from the Swedish translation publishing house chose to come and witness it. After all, they are very curious about the poet who can write so many poems that are close to perfection.

When these people saw that Kevin was so young, all of them were stunned. Because in their opinion, such a young face is still thinking about the stage of life. But Kevin can write those rich and beautiful poems. It's all just unbelievable.

"My God, no wonder he can be called Britain's youngest poet laureate." This is their common sigh after seeing Kevin's immature face.

Although he came to Sweden, the signing event could not proceed immediately, so Latis took Kevin and others to visit the Swedish Translation Publishing House, and then arranged for them a high-end hotel nearby.

The name of the hotel is a bit strange, and the translator told Kevin that the name of the hotel is "Guitar Hotel". but. After checking into the hotel, Kevin understood the origin of the strange name.

There is a big picture of a guitar on the wall of the room, and the origin of the hotel's name is clearly written in it.

In addition to Swedish, there is also an additional English. So Kevin was able to see clearly.

It turns out that the owner of the hotel is called Joss. He is a guitarist, but for some reason he had to give up his favorite job to go into business. When he became an outstanding businessman, he remembered his beloved guitar. Therefore, a hotel called "Guitar" was opened.

Kevin is quite satisfied with the facilities of this hotel. So after taking a shower, he sat on the sofa and played with the computer. This is his first time going abroad, and he intends to record his feelings after going abroad on Twitter, so he first logged in to his Twitter after turning on his computer.

Kevin wrote on Twitter: Stockholm is finally here, this is a beautiful city, dear Swedish readers, are you ready? Looking forward to meeting you.

As soon as Kevin sent out this tweet, he couldn't help but aroused the jealousy and hatred of domestic readers.

"I'm also looking forward to interacting with Kevin more. I didn't go to his previous signings. If he still holds a signing this time, I think I will definitely go."

"Wow, wow, the readers in Sweden are so happy, they can finally see Kevin. I have liked Kevin's articles for so long, and I haven't seen him in real life except for his talk shows on TV. I’m looking forward to getting his autograph too.”

"I really hope that Kevin can hold more signings after returning to China, so that we can have more opportunities to meet him in person. I heard that Kevin is very handsome."

"Dear Kevin, take care of yourself in Sweden. We are all waiting for you to come back. And, friends in Sweden, please treat Kevin warmly. Come on. I always like your words."

After Kevin tweeted out, he planned to go out for a walk, and take a look at the Swedish national customs by the way.

But he didn't expect to run into Louis as soon as he got out of the hotel door.

"Hey, Mr. Louis. Are you planning to go out for a stroll too?" Kevin said happily.

"Yeah, this is my first time in Sweden, so I plan to go out for a walk while I'm free now. How about it, Kevin, are you interested too?" Louis said with a smile.

"es, that's exactly what I mean."

then. The two have the same interests. They walked out of the Guitar Hotel together and walked in the streets of the city. Kevin and Luis were curious about the origin of the name of the city of Stockholm, so when they sat down to enjoy Swedish snacks, they asked the owner of the snack bar by the way.

The owner of the snack bar told them that Stockholm means "wooden island". There are two legends about the origin of its name, the city was founded in the middle of the 3rd century AD. At that time, the local residents were often harassed by pirates, so people built a castle with giant wood on a small island at the entrance of Lake Mälaren, and set wooden stake obstacles in the water to resist pirates, so the island became famous. It was named "Wood Island".

According to another legend, the place was desolate in the past, and the debris of the wrecked ships washed by the waves was piled up on the beach, and the local residents took these wood chips to build simple huts. Since these pieces of wood are not in blocks, but just strips of wood-like waste, the house built is crumbling.

In the past 20 years, this kind of broken wooden houses formed a street on the island. Foreign ships came here for business activities. Seeing the houses on the street like this, they couldn't help feeling amused, and casually called out "Stockholm". "Stego" means wood, and "Ermo" means island, which together form "Wood Island".

Kevin and Louis praised these two interesting legends, which made them know Stockholm again. Perhaps when you understand the story of a city, you can start to understand the city.

Since the Swedish Translation Publishing House had to prepare a dinner for them in the evening, Kevin and Louis returned to the Guitar Hotel after walking around the street. (To be continued.)
