"Xiao Lin is indeed young and promising. Our association rarely recruits new people, so we finally have fresh blood joining."
The release of "Jurassic Park" was a complete accident. I would not have written a new book so quickly, but in order to save the magazine in which I was a shareholder, I had to make such a decision.
He and Chen Jiaxuan have already prepared their flights to Los Angeles, USA. They will leave next Thursday and arrive just in time to attend the awards ceremony on Friday.
The most technical books on Lin Han's bookshelf are technical books, such as science communication. Although there are many science fiction novels in his mind, he must recharge his batteries at all times.
Now that you have already written it, you must write it out completely. You cannot think half-heartedly about the rest of the book, otherwise your brain will definitely explode.
Early in the morning, the summer sunshine woke Lin Han from his sleep. If he forgot to draw the curtains, he would be dazzled easily.
I drove to the parking lot of Tsinghua University following the navigation system. At this time, many people had already arrived, and the lecture originally scheduled to start at 10 o'clock was overcrowded.
Before that, all he had to do was write out next month's update for "Jurassic Park" and hand it over to "Age of Fantasy," which was not a difficult task.
After dressing himself in a mature direction, Lin Han is very satisfied with his current image. He deliberately left a circle of stubble on his chin untrimmed to look more stable.
Lin Han put the Hugo Award selection behind his mind for the time being and did everything he could. If he was always worried about it, he would not be able to live a normal life.
Even Asimov, the science fiction writer who is most remembered in Lin Han's mind, was defeated by his writing skills. It was very dry, bland, and pale, and was even called the language level of a junior high school student.
The Popular Science Writers Association has a relatively small influence, and it is not easy to get 10 votes. So when Lin Han appeared next to Li Wenyuan, several people around him cast surprised looks.
"Who is he? Is he a descendant of Lao Li? Tickets are so tight, but he can still give them to others. It's a bit too much."
While everyone was chatting, a piece of news spread like a hurricane: "Professor Zhai Zhilin is hospitalized for acute appendicitis?"
If there is anyone in China who is most likely to win the Nobel Prize in Physics, it is none other than Professor Zhai Zhilin. His theory of the origin of black holes has been widely recognized at home and abroad, and he has given countless lecture tours in major universities in the United States.
A good story is important, but so is good writing. The quality of writing does not depend on the gorgeousness of words, but whether the writing is just right and can accurately convey one's thoughts and feelings to readers.
After soaking cereal in milk for breakfast, he began to browse today's news. Today he is going to Tsinghua University to attend the highlight of National Science and Technology Week - the famous physicist and astronomer Zhai Zhilin's "Origin of Black Hole·Extreme Gravity" lecture.
Originally, many people thought that they would be grateful if this magazine could sell 50,000 copies. However, the science fiction articles written by Lin Han and Li Wenyuan are very attractive. Coupled with the guidance of the topic, this number is reasonable.
"Lin Han, these are the veterans of our association, Teng Haiyunteng, Yang Ming, Zhou Qi, Zhao Zhuowei..."
Now "Fantasy Age" has come back to life and staged a phoenix rebirth. After the first issue was reprinted, it has sold a total of 180,000 copies.
"She looks too young. I don't know who it is. These days, you have to fight for connections to listen to speeches. No wonder Lao Zhang and the others couldn't come. All the tickets were given to this guy."
It must be a very lucky thing to hear such a master's speech, so Lin Han quickly signed up with the Science Writers Association and successfully got one of the 10 places.
This time, the content of his speech was relatively simple and easy to understand. It was not specifically for physicists, but for many college students, so Lin Han would rather be shameless and attend.
Li Wenyuan and Lin Han were not aware of the discussion of members of the same association here, and now they came over to introduce him and said: "Brother Teng, haven't you always wanted to get to know Lin Han? This is it."
Using retreat to advance is a good move.
What Lin Han wants now is to express the same sentence in a different way, so that the pale, difficult and obscure words become concise and clear.
Science fiction writers are indispensable in dealing with these scientists, whether they invite these scientists to serve as theoretical consultants or something else.
I just went to the gym yesterday to exercise. Now my arms and abdomen are still a little sore, and my original routine has been cancelled.
Lin Han drowsily stood up from the bed with bare feet on the ground, breathed in the fresh air outside the window and did two chest-expanding exercises, and then fully opened his eyes.
Preparing for postgraduate exams now does not disrupt this rhythm of life. When you get tired of reading boring theoretical books, you can read science fiction, history, and military books to relax, so as to maximize efficiency.
It's just that in this way, we need to be more cautious in the selection of subsequent novels, but this has nothing to do with Lin Han and Li Wenyuan. They only need to write their own novels well.
"Real or false, what about this speech? Is it cancelled?"
Lin Han and others were also a little anxious. Getting sick was something no one wanted to happen, but how to deal with this matter urgently now? People lining up in front of the auditorium had already checked in!
Teng Haiyun was a little surprised. They all knew that the Popular Science Writers Association had specially recruited a popular writer, but they didn't expect that he was so young and handsome. He didn't look like a writer at all, but looked like a star in the entertainment industry.
It is very rare to hear the master's speech, and students from Tsinghua University started queuing up early. Tickets for this speech can be said to be hard to get. Tsinghua University's own tickets are in short supply, but some of them are given to others.
Some readers think that flashy writing style means good writing style, which leads to a misunderstanding. In fact, the best style is the one that best suits the style of the novel.
As time goes by, it shouldn’t be difficult to reach 200,000, which is a bit incredible for a magazine that once ceased publication!
"No way? We've all been waiting in line for so long. It would be a shame to cancel. I treated my buddies from the student union to two meals in order to get the tickets."
…
So "Jurassic Park" became Lin Han's experimental field. The most important thing about this novel is the story and rhythm. The original translation did not put much effort into the text, so it gave Lin Han a lot of room for improvement.
Now if Lin Han wants to achieve greater achievements in science fiction, he must work hard on the language of his novels. The language of most science fiction writers is relatively plain and does not have much literary value.
Science fiction is not suitable for gorgeous and gorgeous rhetoric, and the Nobel Prize in Literature does not necessarily value such a style. Appropriate progress is very important.
"Shh, stop saying a few words."
The house is usually very quiet, and no one walks around except Lin Han himself. He does not need to go to a beautiful environment to write something.
The last time he went to participate in the science and technology exhibition of National Science and Technology Week, there was a stampede. He had planned to study hard, but he couldn't resist Li Wenyuan's invitation. Students from Tsinghua University would definitely not crowd around to get his autograph.
No matter what is said behind the scenes, everyone is good at saving face.
Since they are from the same association, Lin Han shook hands and said hello one by one. It is not too difficult to handle interpersonal relationships well.
