Even in Lin Han's view, the real world is actually as full of humor as the novel, and to some extent is far more absurd than people imagine.
Next year's summer movie market is destined to be filled with smoke, and this is just a warm-up. Promotions from both parties have not yet started.

Since Lin Han had been vaccinated in advance, fans are full of expectations for this novel, because Lin Han has never disappointed readers. Every novel is so exciting, and this one is no different.
"Nowadays, domestic writers are jumping out one by one to say something is wrong. In fact, have they really grasped the essence of foreign science fiction? Science fiction has been deeply influenced by existentialism, and existentialism has many key terms, such as existence and absurdity. , life, life, etc., these are all well demonstrated in science fiction novels. They judge Teacher Lin only because of their own limitations!"

At this time, it was the turn of Lin Han's die-hard fans to come on stage. They had already begun a close discussion in their own forum, Hanlin Academy, and analyzed what kind of book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is from Lin Han's live broadcast.
What readers are most concerned about is the issue of new books, and other copyright extensions are just the icing on the cake.
Similar statements have been made by many authors and related people. They have expressed their disdain for Lin Han's new book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", which has never happened before.
"Anyway, I'm looking forward to this novel. It's both a Hitchhiker's Guide and a Hitchhiker's Guide. Can I think about it a little bit? Could it be that the protagonist hitches a ride on a comet and then roams around the Milky Way or even other galaxies? "
Some people are really worried about Lin Han, and some people come to harass Lin Han as fans wearing this layer of leather clothing. Combined with the appeals of these science fiction writers, it seems that the situation is really not good.
"Science fiction fables reflect the absurdity of reality. In fact, there are novels with similar themes abroad, and the quality of these novels is relatively good, so I am personally looking forward to Teacher Lin's book."
"Lost in fame and fortune, Lin Han is no longer satisfied with traditional science fiction and wants to create a new genre, but this is obviously problematic."
There are countless similar messages online, in newspapers, and in QQ groups. Many science fiction writers who have no ill intentions towards Lin Han and even writers from other genres are also discussing whether this is a good move or a bad move. Before the novel came out, No one can tell.

"Before the novel comes out, any evaluation is useless. You can only evaluate the book after reading it, otherwise these things are just other people's fictitious ideas. Anyway, I support Lin Han greatly!"
In addition, there are bloggers who have specially sorted out the news exposed in Lin Han’s press conference, using long Weibo pictures and text, and combined with emoticons to explain and summarize it to the people who eat melons: “Information explosion, Lin Han’s global celebration information collection As follows, a celebration banquet that will blow the world away!"

Then the news of this celebration party exploded in various media. Media in different industries have different reporting areas. The book category reported on the release date of the English magazine "Three Body".
There are the most entertainment media, and they are extremely happy. This is simply a gluttonous feast!
"Two movies that you can't miss next year's summer schedule, Lin Han has captured the summer schedule!"
"Lin Han's new book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" attempts to tell a science fiction story in an absurd and humorous way. This is obviously not an easy task." Although a commentator did not think highly of Lin Han, he did not use excessive words. He was worried about being slapped in the face, so he acted vaguely.
If you interview readers of science fiction novels, you will find that most people still like to read hard science fiction, and so-called soft science fiction cannot enter their eyes at all.
Even when Lin Han announced his novel series "The Martian", "Jurassic Park", and "The Three-Body Problem" before, it did not cause such a big backlash. Originally, fans should have more faith, but there are still people who are skeptical. Quite a few.
Is Lin Han really destroying his future
“Absurd products of science and literature—ugliest creatures born with deformities!”
This group of lovely readers didn't bother to argue with others elsewhere. They guarded their own territory and silently supported Lin Han, watching the clown outside jumping as hard as he could.
"Science fiction can be connected with absurdity and black humor, but there has been no similar reflection in Lin Han's previous books. This is an impulsive attempt and not so rational."
Sina Reading: "There are also new types of science fiction. Lin Han joked that the new book is also called "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". I look forward to a different science fiction novel!"
Phoenix Culture: "Lin Han revealed that his new book is called "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", claiming to be a style-changing work!"
“‘The Martian’ and ‘Jurassic Park’ are both scheduled for next summer. Can domestic science fiction compete with Hollywood blockbusters?”
"The characters of "The Martian" are revealed, with Xu Jiayan starring, and filming will start after the Spring Festival!"
But another sci-fi writer who longs for fame spent an hour writing a long Weibo post called "The Traitor of Science Fiction!" where he wrote: "To this day, science fiction novels are originally regarded as inferior in the eyes of many people. It is a representative of absurdity. The space empire, robots or exploration of outer space described in science fiction novels all seem so far away. In fact, science fiction novels are not absurd. The extended use of science and reasonable imagination of the future are the characteristics of science fiction novels. An essential foundation.
As a leading figure in today's science fiction novels, Lin Han seems to be carried away by the joy of his own success, and does not care that his actions are actually ruining the image that science fiction novels have finally established!
"That's right, those people speak with a clear nose and eyes, as if they know what Teacher Lin is going to write. They are all blind. If you have the ability, wait until the novel comes out!"
What makes this book very different from other science fiction novels is that it uses a relaxed and humorous way to describe such an absurd tone. It not only has various absurd plots, but also a series of equally neurotic characters.
But for many commentators and writers, Lin Han's words are like paving the way for making excuses before failure. No previous book has done this kind of psychological construction.
Of course, the most critical news is about Lin Han’s new book, an absurd soft science fiction novel.
"I have similar thoughts. Teacher Lin has never let us down before, and he won't let us down this time either. Just wait for the specific information about the novel to be announced."
Before the novel came out, many people felt that absurdist literature had nothing to do with science fiction. In fact, this was also a concern of a large number of people. Instead of writing good hard science fiction, they went to write absurd and humorous soft science fiction. This is not idle. Are you looking for something to do
Douglas Adams used his unique cynical writing style to satirize all the authority and order in the real world to the readers who were dumbfounded. There is nothing in the world that cannot be ridiculed.
"The expansion after becoming famous, look at how those talented writers destroyed themselves, please take Lin Han as a lesson!"
…
Science fiction is not absurd! Those absurd science fiction novels have been abandoned by the trend of history. I hope Lin Han can face himself and return to the right path, and not destroy himself for the sake of being new and different. "
It may not be accurate to regard "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" as a simple science fiction novel. It is more of an absurd literature that explores the condition of human existence.
At first glance, this book seems humorous, full of sarcasm and jokes. But after reading it carefully, you will find that the author is not humorous just for the sake of humor. Behind this ridiculing style, the author's specific view of reality is hidden.
"Spielberg VS Zheng Shuping, dinosaurs vs. astronauts, who can win the summer movie?"
"I don't know if you have read "The Planning Group" and "Total Recall". There are many dark things in this author's books. They seem to come from out-of-control science fiction elements, but they actually come from deeper reality and human hearts. There are also elements of absurdity in it.”
Lin Han didn't lie. He was sure that "Jurassic Park" and "The Three-Body Problem" would be liked, but he was not sure that the book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" would be a big seller because he needed to perform a gut transplant and plastic surgery on the book. The major surgery is no longer as trivial as it used to be.
