It is not that simple to discover an ancient ruins and have the world recognize its existence.

First, we need to collect information and evidence related to the ruins, then write a research paper and submit it to the International Association of Archaeology together with the cultural relics found in the ruins.

After passing the strict review, the Archaeological Association will send a research team to the ruins for confirmation.

Only after confirmation will the newly discovered ancient ruins be officially announced to the outside world.

The whole process will take at least two to three months.

This is what Laura and Lu Qi will focus on completing in the next period of time.

As the discoverers of the ruins, Lu Qi and Laura have a very clear division of labor. Laura is responsible for the professional work of organizing data and writing thesis; Lu Qi is responsible for running errands and doing odd jobs. After the thesis is completed, he will collect the relevant ruins information.

, submitted to the Archaeological Association.

Other matters that required publicity were also handled by Lu Qi.

Laura didn't like the media at all that tarnished her father's reputation...

...

While Laura and Lu Qi were sorting out information together and immersed themselves in writing papers, the outside world's discussion of the Endurance incident had not diminished at all.

Laura personally refused to be interviewed, and other crew members were unwilling to face the camera and talk about what happened on the island, making the public more and more curious about what happened to the Endurance.

They really wanted to know how the Endurance, which broke into the Devil's Sea, escaped from the sea of ​​death...

In order to obtain first-hand news, major newspapers, magazines, and media have sent their reporters to collect intelligence.

The paparazzi who received bonus incentives felt like they had been given a shot of blood, and their fighting power doubled.

Soon, the paparazzi squatting outside the apartment discovered that Laura had not returned to the apartment. They immediately moved their position and came to the outside of Crawford Manor in Surrey to lay an ambush.

Although they couldn't enter the manor, just staying outside allowed them to take photos of Lu Qi and Laura coming in and out together!

Although there were no intimate photos of the two holding hands or kissing, the two were chatting and laughing happily, and they looked like a couple in a good relationship.

To the paparazzi, who only see breaking news, this is breaking news that can be taken in close-up!

Paparazzi belonging to different media immediately sent back the photos and began to use their rich imaginations.

But Lu Qi and Laura on the other side knew nothing about it...

...

Because he spent all his savings before going to sea, Lu Qi encountered the embarrassing situation of having no money to pay the rent not long after returning.

Although the landlord gave him a week's grace, he was a little troubled for a while.

It's not that he can't make money, it's just that there are too many ways to make money.

Originally, he planned to take the antiques he brought back from Yamatai to Christie's auction house for auction.

However, after learning about the auction regulations for art works, he gave up the idea.

Antique cultural relics without certificates or papers are generally considered to be of unknown origin. Auction houses rarely accept such items. Even if they are accepted, it is difficult to obtain a high price.

In other words, in order to maximize profits, the antiques he brought back from the island cannot be sold until the ruins of Yamatai are made public.

Just when Lu Qi was worried about whether he should temporarily resume his old career, talk to gangsters or gang members about life, and make some money to spend, a phone call changed his mind:

"Hey, is this Lu Qi, Mr. Lu?"

"I am, who are you?"

"Hello, Mr. Lu, I am the program producer of ITV's "Focus on Interviews". My name is Steve Joshi..."

When Lu Qi heard the other party announcing his home address, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and felt a wave of emotion in his heart.

ITV is the abbreviation of British Independent Television.

As the second largest wireless television operator in the UK, ITV has produced many programs that are very popular with the mainstream public, such as "Downton Abbey" and "Mr. Bean" are its classic programs.

No need to ask, the people from ITV definitely called him to ask him about the Endurance.

"Is there a problem?"

"That's right, we want to invite you to the show to talk about the Endurance and your experience in the Dragon Triangle. I wonder if you are free tomorrow..."

Hearing the other party's intention, Lu Qi wanted to refuse directly, but suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he immediately changed his mind:

"The talk show sounds good. However, I have been a little busy recently. I don't know if I will be free tomorrow..."

Hearing that Lu Qi's attitude was not as firm as the others, the producer on the other side of the phone couldn't help but increase his efforts and persuaded her earnestly:

"Mr. Lu, I understand that you are not willing to be interviewed or talk about what happened. However, you can rest assured that our program is very serious and serious, and we will never ask too many personal questions."

"The public is very interested in what happened to you. You can let everyone know the true story of the Endurance through our program. In this way, some shameless media will not write nonsense and do this to your return.

Daily life is also a kind of help, what do you think?"

"This sounds good, but I have to look for a job recently..."

Hearing this, the sophisticated producer immediately understood Lu Qi's hint:

"Don't worry, the recording of the program will not delay you for too long, and the guests who participate in the program will receive a thousand pounds in advertising fees as compensation..."

Before the other party finished speaking, Lu Qi immediately agreed:

"Okay then, what time will it be tomorrow and where will it be?"

Faced with Lu Qi's 180-degree change in attitude, the producer couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before reacting:

"Tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning, at the ITV headquarters building, someone will pick you up when you arrive."

"Ok, see you tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Qi threw the phone on the sofa and sat down.

One thousand pounds allowed him to pay two months' rent and also ensure daily expenses.

In the last show, you could get a thousand pounds for showing off your skills. Where can you find such a good thing?

Besides, others didn't want to mention those things, so he didn't have any psychological burden at all.

For him, these things are nothing to hide.

Thinking of this, Lu Qi, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but said to himself with a little regret:

"It's a pity. I originally wanted to chat with the neighbors on the street about the weather... I have no choice but to go there next time..."

Neighbors: Thank you so much!

...

That night, Lu Qi did not forget to call Laura and report to her:

"Laura, I'm going to the TV station to do something tomorrow, so I won't come to the manor."

"TV station? Where are you going?"
Chapter completed!
