*Please, excuse me, dear moderator, for I've seen the template which is sadly not really applicable in our case. So sorry(* Here is the link: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/a-traveler-across-the-worlds/ All in all, it’s not exactly a pick up request (more like vice versa), but I couldn’t find a better corner to create such a topic, so, well, let me start with a short tale of what we want. There are 2 guys, one is able to translate almost everything from Chinese to Russian perfectly fine, the other one can do the same from Russian to English (let’s say moderate quality, still understandable enough though. Quick to learn and is willing to improve his style). I leave it to your imagination who from them both the topic starter is. Without further ado, wtf do you guys want aside from conquering the world? You see, we are searching for something to translate, Chinese guy (short CG) wants money, women and fame (who doesn’t?) and is willing to translate anything from Chinese to Russian which was NOT translated in Novel Updates (NU) yet. Why? Russian guy (RG) is also willing to translate something from CG into English for the sake of his English writing, to have some practice (why not, actually?). This is where we need your help to find this something, conditions are listed here: 1. In Chinese 2. Exist nowhere on NU (= no translation so far) 3. Nothing related with cultivators (or just a tiny bit) 4. Male protagonist 5. May be harem or at least some romance (CG loves harems) 6. Without explicit adult content (Say no to 18+ or something alike) 7. No yuri, bara, so on 8. It better not have too specific knowledge, cause CG don’t like translating how engine works and he probably won’t succeed in translating. Neither RG, he will be more like R.I.P. 9. CG have read Heavenly Star from Mars Gravity in Chinese till the end and found it fascinating! (is on NU) You have the general directions. Move in the right directiooooooooon! Yep, like this song. 10. Just TEASER chapter of any chinese novel is acceptable 11. Nothing from https://www.qidian.com/ , please. That won't do. We may update the conditions’ section with the passage of time. Send us your raw links!) Some websites for your suggestions: http://book.sfacg.com/ http://www.360dxs.com/ http://www.8wenku.com/ If nothing catches our attention, we are going to take this Chinese novel: http://book.sfacg.com/Novel/36197/ + Many chapters + Popular (or overrated, we don’t know yet) + No translation at all (I’ve searched, found nothing) + Completed Rough description: Young man receives a visit from the God who tells him about his long-lost childhood sweetheart who according to the God’s words is actually alive, however to find his beloved one the young fellow has to travel through the worlds. For that, God grants him a loli to assist in his adventures. For now, we don’t know when will we start, but probably in January-February 2018, cause Christmas, party, yeah!, etc. If CG finds some time this or next week, we will drop here a link to our website, so you can read the first chapter/prologue. Number of chapters for start (First months, if started in January, then February is off because of exams... If started in the end of February or later, then we are good): 1-2 chapters per week Don’t wanna predict for a later date. If everything runs smoothly, then we may add Paypal button for the sponsored chapters. Well, that’s all. Thanks for your attention, pals!
Right. But I assure you, you will be satisfied. If not, we will give back your time. It is or was translated, so no. Please, read the conditions.
After everything is said and done, make sure that both translators agree and are interested in the story they choose. Getting recommendations is fine, but, at the end of the day, the person who is translating is the one that needs to kept happy.
That's just how its these days my man. New meta. The more you translate the better the quality is. I've heard from a reliable source that WW translates from chinese to japanese to korean to russian to arabic to french to german to english. That's why quality is so good there, hm.
And how exactly are you going to give our time back to us? Wait, don't tell me you guys have invented a time machine?
That's for sure. Cause one translator asks the other for agreement, in the novel he is interested in. If they both agree, we will start.
Do novels count that only got some teaser chapter? I would love to see Divorce: This is a Trivial Matter translated...
Mostly because we just want to start from scratch. And don't want to read the already translated parts, even if not much of them are out there. Teaser chapters is OK for now. I will update the Info.
I dont read chinese so I cannot help you with them raws but here is some advice: Dont touch anything from qidian or any site even remotely related to qidian, especially if you are planning to do a second degree translation.
