"It's a pity that there are too few people watching science fiction in China now, otherwise more people could watch it."
"real or fake?"
As a soft science fiction novel, "Country Teacher" does not contain much science, technology or future fantasy. It only explores society and human nature in the context of science fiction, which requires readers to think carefully.
“Bang bang bang”
Lin Han stood aside while holding the ring. His eyes rested on a girl not far away. This girl, who looked like a high school student in her teens, was reading an English novel non-stop. Judging from the cover, it was probably a science fiction novel, but there was no trace of it in his memory.
Lin Han finally showed a smile. He clenched his fists and cheered himself up secretly, "That's great! This way, more people can read my novel. It couldn't be better. By the way, you're half right. What’s the record?”
"I'm not telling you, your self-confidence is really through the roof. There is too little survival space for science fiction in China. I have been giving science fiction novels to my friends for a long time, but those guys only know how to watch Hollywood science fiction blockbusters, which makes me mad."
"I think what attracts me most is that it refutes the theory that reading is useless. Unfortunately, the people who can read this novel are not the audience, and the people who need to read this article can't read it."
After getting up and leaving with the books he borrowed, Lin Han went to the subway station not far away and started waiting. Public transportation in Beijing is relatively convenient, but it is quite crowded, especially in several major stations.
Lin Han carefully saved the picture on his computer by right-clicking it, and then transferred it to the cloud disk for double insurance against loss.
He felt a sense of alienation after traveling to the present, but after casual conversations with those young people today, he realized that science fiction fans long for good works and long for good domestic science fiction novels.
Writing is simple, but polishing is difficult, especially when it comes to modifying dialogues and so on. Lin Han can only figure out every word and slow down the speed. This is not writing an online novel, which needs to be updated by tens of thousands of words a day.
After returning home, Lin Han began to look forward to the final review results, whether "Selected Novels" could publish his science fiction novel, but he could only passively wait for news about Chen Jiaxuan.
After hearing the speeches of these people, Lin Han couldn't help but feel better. He smiled and said: "Don't worry, one day science fiction will counterattack, maybe you will all be witnesses."
Chen Jiaxuan also called it a fluke. This should be regarded as Tu Meilun's sidestep. He kept emphasizing realism in writing, ignoring the science fiction part, and tried his best to fool around. As long as he can make it, he will win.
"The phone seems to be charging, and I didn't hear the beep. Come in and talk, the corridor is a bit cold." After Lin Han closed the door, he asked: "Do you have anything to do with me?"
Turning on the computer, he began to slowly write the first story of "I, Robot". Before, he had just outlined the outline, but now he was writing out the specific content. As for whether it was good or not, he had to let the market judge.
"You see the contract written in black and white is there. It is only for reprinting and not for other purposes. My friend is also saying it's a fluke. It's not that science fiction is accepted now, it's just that it's not so exclusive. In addition, your novel is indeed different from traditional science fiction. It’s different, like realism, so her editor-in-chief agreed.”
The roaring train came slowly and steadily, and the crowds of people poured out of the train, and then the tourists from outside poured in again, completing a perfect cooperation.
Most classic short stories are soft science fiction, because there is not enough space to describe the details of hard science fiction. The focus of "Country Teacher" is on humanities, and it is the kind of article that directly touches the soul.
The knocks on the door rang loudly. There was obviously a doorbell, but few people seemed to press it, and they all chose to knock violently with their hands.
Lin Han moved his chair back and said at the same time: "It's coming, it's coming, don't rush it."
But "Selected Novels" is different. It has a wide readership, ranging from ordinary students and office workers to elites and middle-aged and elderly intellectuals. They are all reading this book. Those people are not easy to talk to.
He was obviously a young man, but he insisted on calling himself a weirdo. Zheng Yuzhen thought for a long time before he said: "Compared with the science fiction novels I have read before, this is a bit weird. This novel is not only sensational, but also subtly makes me I think this makes sense, and let us reflect on ourselves. This unique perspective of observing our human society through the eyes of aliens is relatively novel."
The price is not expensive, so Lin Han applied for every book. Even "I, Robot", which he just wrote the outline of, was also applied for. He will apply further before publication and enjoy the protection of the country. .
While he was writing, an email suddenly popped up in his mailbox. It was feedback from the National Copyright Office. He had previously spent 100 yuan to register cultural copyright. This copyright is mutually recognized in China and the United States. Any copyright disputes can be used as evidence in court.
Chen Jiaxuan is more worried about Lin Han's reputation. Although "Science Fiction World" is a hot seller, because the audience is relatively small, ordinary people don't know that there is such an author.
None of this was a problem for Lin Han. His speed gradually increased, and he came up with the first draft in more than an hour. The story of "Robbie" is like a real-life fairy tale. A little girl who relies on a robot nanny is raised by her parents. Under pressure, I had to give up on myself as a friend.
It’s surprising that you can read the original novel at such a young age.
"I felt the important content that the novel wanted to express, equality and differentiation. Poor people like rural teachers and children did not enjoy a good life, nor did they receive the same quality of education, but it was they who saved the world. This is a bit It's like satire, but not like it." Xiaoliu knocked on his head, lost in thought, "I'm going to read it again later, I think some details may have been overlooked."
The 20,000-word novel was quickly read, but these young people were not in a hurry to speak. Instead, they passed the magazine in their hands to their friends next to them while they themselves began to think seriously.
However, Lin Han didn't take it seriously at all. He waved his hand and said, "What's the matter? Let's read about it then. After the sales statistics of the latest issue are calculated, we will bring the new book to the publishing house and "Science Fiction World". Let's take a good look at it. Let’s coordinate what should be done.”
Generally speaking, science fiction writers are not very productive, and Lin Han is an exception. After writing a novel, other writers have to think repeatedly about the subject matter, background, story outline and even writing techniques of the new book.
"The work efficiency is really fast. I only applied for it for a few days and it was approved. And it is really effective."
After opening the door, Chen Jiaxuan put her head around and said, "Did I disturb you from writing a novel? I sent you a message on your mobile phone but you didn't reply."
Now it was Lin Han's turn to be surprised. In fact, he had been mentally prepared to hit a wall before. The first recommendation was not successful, and the possibility of the second recommendation was not very high. How could it be successful now
"You are the first science fiction writer to appear in "Selected Novels" in the past three years. Many science fiction masterpieces have been lost here, so it is half a record. When this issue of the magazine is released, you You will receive more attention, and you have to hold on when the time comes!”
"Using extraterrestrial civilizations to explain the profession of teachers is very fresh and interesting without being pretentious. When I saw the familiar Newton's three laws, the original cold physics knowledge became a bit legendary. Not only did Newton It helped us solve mechanical problems in the past and saved the earth hundreds of years later. As a science student, I think it’s great.”
Although they had just met, Laoguai, Xiaoliu and several others had left a deep impression on him. Such pure readers were quite rare.
In the past, Lin Han himself felt this way, and would complain from time to time about why science fiction writers could not write good articles. Now that his role has changed, his sense of responsibility has become much stronger.
"It will be fine, there will be bread, and there will be milk. You guys take your time and take a look. I'll leave if I have something else to do. Remember to message me if there are any events." Lin Han picked up the bag and stood up. I still have to go back and write the first few chapters of "I, Robot".
Chen Jiaxuan shook her phone and said with a smile: "I'm here to congratulate you. You have set half a record and have officially appeared in the "Selected Novels". They have sent me the contract and are waiting for your signature."
When a science fiction novel lands in it, it doesn’t matter whether they rush to tell each other or launch attacks one after another.
