Different from last night's style.
Readers have come up with something new today.
I don’t know who started this, but there’s a new trend in the comments section:
"We were fooled by the old thief!"
“Although I admit that The Heartbreakers is very exciting, this level of science fiction elements shouldn’t be considered a science fiction novel, right?”
"that is."
“It’s soft science fiction at best.”
"No way, no way, soft science fiction is also considered science fiction?"
"I don't care, we want hard science fiction!"
"Well, what is soft science fiction and what is hard science fiction?"
"Hard science fiction is a work based on science such as physics, chemistry, biology, astronomy, psychology, and medicine. Soft science fiction is a branch of science fiction whose plots and themes focus on philosophy, psychology, politics, or sociology."
“This novel ‘The Heartbreakers’ is essentially a novel with maternal love as its theme.”
"The science fiction elements in this novel are just embellishments, not the main body at all!"
"Hey, you old thief!"
"I call you hard science fiction, do you dare to agree?"
"We want hardcore science fiction that's full of fantastic ideas. If it's just soft science fiction, what's the difference between it and micro-novels like Hey, Come Out?"
"It seems that Lao Zei also had a book called "Artificial Beauty" in his early years."
"Strictly speaking, these are all soft science fiction, and there is no actual scientific description at all."
I have to say.
Some readers really understand.
Lin Yuan’s previous work “Hey, Come Out” can also be considered a science fiction theme, but it is too short and does not contain any hardcore content.
This is also true for "Artificial Beauty".
This type of novel actually uses a layer of science fiction as a cover to tell a story that is not so science fiction, so much so that everyone has forgotten that Chu Kuang had actually written stories with science fiction elements a long time ago.
OK!
Hard science fiction, right
Lin Yuan was getting a little excited.
It just so happened that Jinmu suggested that I write some more short stories to help stabilize the traffic of my blog, so I might as well take this opportunity to write a hard science fiction.
certainly.
Still a short story.
Short stories are easy to write.
Long novels are not suitable to be posted on blogs, as it would be a huge loss. How can you expect long novels to sell? And from the perspective of reading experience, long science fiction novels are indeed more suitable to be published in books so that readers can buy them home and read them slowly.
No nonsense.
Key, again!
Lin Yuan opened the notebook on the desk, his fingers began tapping on the keyboard, his eyes flashing brightly.
Come out, Liu!
If you want to play, play harder!
Lin Yuan wants to write Liu Cixin's works!
Of course, it is not the Three-Body series by this big guy, that would be too much of a dimensionality reduction attack. You should know that in addition to the Three-Body series, Liu Cixin also has many popular short and medium-length science fiction works, such as one of them called "The Wandering Earth".
Yes.
It’s “The Wandering Earth”.
This novel became famous around the world through its film adaptation and was praised by countless people, allowing the world to see the rise of China's science fiction films!
In fact.
The original novel by Liu Cixin is just as exciting as the movie, and may even be better.
certainly.
When it comes to Blue Star, the novel will definitely not be called "The Wandering Earth" anymore. Lin Yuan feels very sorry about this.
Can it be called "Wandering Planet"
Can it also be called "Wandering Blue Planet"
In short, this work can be regarded as hard science fiction in the minds of most people, and many of the scientific fantasies in it are very interesting.
Fortunately...
Although the name of the Earth needs to be changed, Blue Planet is essentially a parallel world of the Earth. The universe it is in is no different from that of the Earth, so Lin Yuan does not need to change other things. In this respect, it is still very appropriate.
Having said that.
There is actually no standard division between hard science fiction and soft science fiction. There is no blue planet on Earth, and it is a rather subjective thing.
It is impossible to distinguish precisely.
Even though science fiction writers can only come close to general concepts, there is no doubt that Liu Cixin's work is undoubtedly closer to the science fiction novels that many people usually understand than the controversial "The Heartbreakers".
Thinking of this.
Lin Yuan typed quickly: Tomorrow night at eight o'clock, I will continue to publish new science fiction works on my blog.
This time, Lin Yuan didn't intend to slap him in the face.
It’s not appropriate to finish writing in such a short time every time.
With a buffer period of time, people may be more receptive to it. At the same time, this can also create momentum for the blog and attract readers from all continents in advance in the form of a preview.
…
Tomorrow night at eight
A new science fiction work
Chu Kuang's blog is always followed by countless people, and many people get the news first, so the comment section is even more lively!
"I like that about you!"
“A model worker among writers!”
"Other writers only drink a cup of Black Bull and smoke a pack of cigarettes, and write about 2,000 words a day. They can't compare with Lao Zei at all!"
“That’s not the point.”
“The point is science fiction!”
"This old thief is actually writing science fiction, but I suspect he might just fool people with another soft science fiction. After all, this stuff has nothing to do with whether the writer can make up a story, and it's really hard to do without a certain amount of scientific knowledge."
"uncertain."
"This old thief just likes to go against the readers. We said he wrote soft science fiction, but maybe he can really write hard science fiction this time?"
"I don't believe it!"
"Write hard science fiction if you dare!"
"If Chu Kuang can write a recognized hard science fiction work, I will eat it on the spot. No, I will wash my hair upside down on the spot!"
"I thought you were going to cheat me out of food and drink again."
Among Chu Kuang's readers, the proportion of science fiction fans is not large, but the total base is huge, and everyone is joining in the fun. For a while, the comment section was full of discussions about science fiction topics.
…
at the same time.
The news that Chu Kuang was going to write another science fiction novel spread to the novel world, and immediately attracted everyone's attention again!
Coming again
Or science fiction
Is this a fight with the readers
There is probably only one writer in the entire blue planet who quarrels with readers every day. Or it can be said that only the old thief dares to do so. All other authors treat readers in a nice and servile manner, for fear of making the readers unhappy and ruining their jobs.
…
What people don’t know is.
The tribal leaders are in a meeting at this moment:
"Our traffic is being eaten away by blogs. Now that the old thief Chu Kuang has returned, he is attracting attention from all sides. If this continues, our tribe will be wiped out by blogs sooner or later. We have to find a way to attract attention!"
"What is the solution?"
"Isn't he going to publish another science fiction novel the day after tomorrow? Let's go to Weizhou and find a big-name science fiction writer and invite him to write a science fiction novel on his blog. It has to be hard science fiction!"
“Hard science fiction?”
"Because Chu Kuang writes soft science fiction, we use hard science fiction. Not only do we want to defeat him, but we also want him to understand what real science fiction is!"
"Who to look for then?"
"I know someone."
"Then contact the other party quickly!"
"I'm already following him. He's one of the top science fiction writers in Weizhou. He just happens to have a manuscript in hand, a very hardcore new science fiction work!"
"who is he?"
"Huyan Dabo."
"I've read this guy's book, awesome!"
"If it weren't for that damn Ling Kong, we wouldn't have to face the situation we are in today. I want to kill him right now!"

ps: There will only be three updates today. I will go and review the original novel of The Wandering Earth. I will not write about the content in detail this time. After all, many people have seen the movie, and I highly recommend you to watch it if you haven’t. Although there are many adaptations, it is indeed very exciting and easier to understand than the novel. After all, it is the flagship of my country’s science fiction movies.
