After waiting for a long time, the computer finally turned on. Yu Hua took the seat directly, opened Deep Space, and found a post.
"Look at this."
Yu Dong and Zhang Xian looked at each other and saw the title of the post: Mr. Chang, the prototype of "Old Books", has books in his collection, waiting for someone who knows how to appreciate them.
Look below, there is a photo that is not very clear. Inside the photo is an old version of "Camel Xiangzi".
"There's more down there."
As the remainder scrolls down, two more photos appear.
One is the title page of the book, with a line on it: Presented to my brother Chang Huaiying on May 15, 1937.
The other page is the last page of the book, and there is also a line: Reading this masterpiece makes me feel very generous - Chang Huaiyingliu.
"This is a photo posted by a netizen, saying it belongs to Chang Huaiying's collection of books. If he meets someone who loves books, he is willing to take action. The post he posted just three hours ago already has hundreds of replies, and many people
Everyone is willing to buy it, and the highest bidder has already reached 2,000 yuan."
"Two thousand? To buy this crappy book?"
Zhang Xian scratched his cheek and said: "If this is true, then you can't say it's a loss if you buy it for two thousand, right? Didn't you say before that there are a lot of Mr. Chang's books floating around outside?"
"This is false." Yu Dong said firmly.
Yu Hua said unexpectedly: "How did you know?"
Yu Dong asked with a half-smile: "Do you know when "Camel Xiangzi" was written?"
"I don't remember." Yu Hua shook his head, "You mean, this book was written after 1937? So after seeing the year 1937, you conclude that it is fake?"
"No, "Luotuo Xiangzi" was published in 1936, but it was first serialized in "Cosmic Wind" and was not published as a single volume by Renjian Bookstore in 1939. So this 1937 is simply ridiculous."
"Can you remember this?"
"Before, because I was writing "Old Books", I studied some old books and read relevant information. Except for the time, although the word imitation is very similar, there are still flaws."
"It looks pretty much the same to me."
Yu Dong shook his head, pointed to the line of words on the last page and said: "Chang Huaiyingliu, because Mr. Chang's handwriting that was exposed before contained these four characters, so the imitation was very similar, but look at the wide characters in the front, in the middle
They are all separated when Mr. Chang wrote them, but they are connected here. From these two points, this book must be fake."
Zhang Xian said with a smile: "This faker is too careless. At least he should find a real old version of "Luotuo Xiangzi", or push back the time."
"To find an authentic first edition of "Camel Xiangzi" now, the price is not small. As for the date, they probably didn't investigate clearly. They only knew that the book was published in 1936, so they thought of moving the date closer to 1936.
It can be sold for a higher price. Moreover, I guess they have made more than one copy of this book. As long as there is a sincere bid in the post, they can sell one copy. With so many people, someone will be deceived."
Yu Hua frowned: "Then what should we do? Do you want to remind netizens?"
"That's for sure. I'll ask Yiliang and others to delete this post later, and then the official will post another statement to remind netizens."
"Okay, you call me, I'll remind you in the post first, don't let anyone be fooled now, I will use your number to send the message."
Yu Dong looked at Yu Hua, who was busy replying to the post, and shook his head with a smile. The post had been sent out for three hours, and if someone was really fooled, he didn't care now.
However, there is no online payment now, so even if someone is cheated, they can recover in time.
While Yu Hua was busy replying to the post, Yu Shu called Yu Liang and explained the matter briefly.
Yu Hua posted a comment, and when he had just edited the second one and was about to post it, a line of text popped up on the screen: The post has been deleted or blocked.
"So fast?" Yu Hua looked at Yu Dong in surprise.
Yu Dong shrugged, "It's so fast. The announcement will be posted soon, so don't worry about it."
…
The official deep space announcement post came out very quickly. From the time Yu Dong called to the time the post was posted, it didn't take more than ten minutes.
In the official announcement, the incident of that post was explained again, and finally, netizens were reminded not to believe such content easily.
Seeing the announcement, Zhang Xian scratched his head and said, "Why don't you just ban such posts that are of a buying and selling nature, so that you can completely prevent netizens from being deceived."
Yu Dong shook his head, "Even if the website were to ban all posts related to buying and selling, buying and selling would not disappear, but would only exist in a more hidden way, because buying and selling is also a need of netizens, and it is a need of most people.
needs.”
"That's right." Yu Hua followed, "I have bought things on the website. There was a netizen from Jinling who wanted to get rid of some old books at home. I thought they were pretty good, so I collected a few. We traded in person.
That man recognized me at that time and refused to give me any money. In the end, I gave him a signed copy of "Alive" as compensation."
"Your name is quite valuable." Zhang Xian said with a smile.
Yu Hua rolled his eyes, "What's it worth? I just received three used books. The original price we negotiated was ten yuan. The book "Alive" I gave him was bought on the spot at the bookstore. It cost
I have 12 yuan, front to back, and two yuan attached, do you think my name is worth anything?"
Yu Dong and Zhang Xian both found it interesting to see Yu Hua's resentful expression when talking about this matter.
"It's only two yuan, but it can make that person happy for many days, so it's worth it."
Yu Hua stretched out his hand towards Yu Dong: "If you give me two yuan, I can be happy for many days."
Yu Dong picked up a pen from the table with a smile and pretended to write on Yu Hua's hand: "Don't give up two yuan. Some people say that I give you ten thousand gold per word. Today I will give you ten thousand gold."
Yu Hua retracted his hand: "Ten thousand gold is too heavy, don't break my wrist."
He rubbed his hands and returned to the previous topic: "Although this is a flip-flop transaction, some shopping posts on the website are still necessary. There will inevitably be loopholes in the development of the times, so we can only take our time.
, wait until there is a complete system in the future. Doesn’t there be Amazon in the United States, which is doing pretty well.”
"The one from Deep Space Holdings?"
"Yeah." Yu Dong nodded, "Actually, Amazon also has a lot of problems, and people often encounter scammers. Deep space is easier to manage now. After the instant messaging software came out later, there will be more chaos. The official can't control it. Only
I hope netizens can be more vigilant."
In the information age, these problems are unavoidable.
The Internet has brought people closer, but it has also made it easier for scammers, who can deceive people while sitting at home.
There are also telecommunications frauds. There are fewer telecommunications frauds now because there are fewer phone calls and the phone bills are expensive.
In the future, when telephones are popularized, telephone charges come down, and the cost of telecommunications fraud decreases, the number of frauds will naturally increase.
The three of them chatted for a while about the chaos on the Internet. Yu Hua suddenly pointed at the screen and said, "Hey, another person posted a post saying that he wanted to sell Mr. Chang's book collection. Isn't this a crime committed against the wind?"
Yu Dong stretched his head and took a look. It was true, and this person specifically marked the end of the title: He is definitely not a liar.
“Let’s ask Yiliang and them to delete it as soon as possible.”
Chapter completed!
