Although Gu Liu’s past articles have been mentioned many timesNadieh Bremer å’Œ Shirely WuThis collaborative project/book contains 24 visualizations, but there should still be some people who haven’t heard of it, can be found atOfficial website of “Data Sketches”Read about it. You can read several articles as well.

This is probably the first scoop to be announced, since Gu Liu was probably the first, if not the first, to know about the news.

How did Gu Liu know the news?

In the past few years, when I wrote some Python articles online, I was asked several times by the editor of a publishing house about the intention of publishing a book (check out wechat in 2017). Gu Liu knew his level was not high, and he was only a small transparent person with little influence, so he thought no one would buy the book, so he refused (The reclamation will be discussed later), but several editors’ wechat accounts have also been added.

At the end of Last August, the old willow began to be renewedData visualization/d3.jsAnd other related content, and built a visual communication group after amway also many times”Data Sketches”The editor of the publishing house also went to know about the book. At first, in mid-April, we talked that it might not be suitable for the introduction of the book, because “it is too expensive, the readership is very narrow, suitable for veteran enthusiasts, not so practical”, etc. At that time, we thought maybe there was no way out.

And asked if they have any other recommendations, because rambo happens to be”Learning data visualization, which book is better to read? – A Japanese ghost.”One article quite fire, several number also forwarded, so recommended, see inside which this is appropriate and have not been introduced. (Later, a group of friends invited Rambo to join the group, wuhu takeoff ~)

However, one month later, in the middle of this month, I received the news that it would be introduced after the study. Pleasantly surprised, Gu Liu was even asked if he was interested in translatingNadieh Bremer å’Œ Shirely WuThe two visualized gods appeared in a book, almost flattered and dreamlike, but at the same time trying to pretend to be calm, Gu Liu knew that her English level was too poor to grasp the opportunity, and if she turned down such a good book, she would really be a criminal, so she refused. (Though I don’t know if it was a minor contribution to the book’s introduction)

However, I reluctantly recommend two group friends who have talked before, hoping that they can get this opportunity through the subsequent trial translation (so you are welcome to talk to Gu Liu more, maybe gu Liu can think of suitable candidates and recommend them next time when there is an opportunity), so maybe Gu Liu can still pass the group friendsThe chance to make an appearance with a "translator".

However, because the publishing house was still going through the process and had not yet signed the contract, the news of the introduction could not be confirmed and could not be made public. It was not until Gu Liu asked again on Wednesday that the good news was basically finalized. Finally, I could share it with everyone.

But after the announcement, I didn’t expect that two other members of the group said they could also find them if there was a shortage of translators. Gu Liu also planned to ask the editor if he needed more candidates for “trial translation”. After all, if he could recommend them, more people would have more chances to translate the book better.

But I didn’t thinkShirely WuI also recommended someone, although it was unexpected, but it was reasonable, so I asked curiously who he was to see if I knew him. Although Gu Liu did not know him, he happened to know one of the friends aboveA small circle.

So also invited into the group, looking forward to the follow-up progress.

So that’s it”Data Sketches”Sure to introduce will have a Chinese version of the occasion, gu Liu knows some of the back story, actually gu Liu also curiousHow many people already know this book and love it and look forward to itOf course, I haven’t heard of it before. It would be nice if it could be on Amway this time"Have been affected by Amway".

There is no time for more in this article”Data Sketches”In the next article, Gu Liu will review some sums that have been mentioned in the previous article as well as those that have not been written in the article”Data Sketches”Please look forward to relevant practice and repetition.
