The originally clear and sweet sound of the end of get out of class rang at this time. Hundreds of students did not feel the usual joy of hearing the end of get out of class bell, and every one of them sighed!
Chen Jiaxuan took Lin Han's mobile phone and started browsing Weibo. She said in surprise: "Look, look, it seems that the Academic Affairs Office has a special camera to record your course!"
Being a teacher for the first time, Lin Han did not have much experience. Standing on the podium, he could see the movement on every student's desk. To his relief, no one was playing with their mobile phones or doing homework for TOEFL, IELTS or other courses. , everyone listened attentively.
Conan Doyle is obviously most famous for creating the image of Sherlock Holmes. He is the ancestor of detective suspense novels. "The Complete Works of Sherlock Holmes" is also an immortal classic in detective novels. His literary works are popular all over the world, and new film and television works are released every year. Even if the work and background are changed to modern times, it doesn’t look out of place.
It was the first time he became a teacher. Lin Han wanted to show off, so he used his mobile phone to search on Weibo. He knew that someone must have filmed this grand occasion.
Lin Han's voice echoed in the lecture theater. Even in elective courses, there were many students taking notes, even recording and filming the contents of the PPT!
Fortunately, Chen Jiaxuan was prepared. She brewed some tea in Lin Han's thermos cup. Now, after Lin Han paused, he unscrewed the lid and took a sip of water to moisten his throat.
"Teacher Lin, will we discuss your novels in our future literary appreciation classes?"
"Yes, I really want to discuss "The Three-Body Problem" and "Inception"."
"Do you know when the earliest science fiction appeared?" Lin Han gave up. After seeing everyone below shaking their heads and saying they didn't know, he revealed the answer: "The masterpiece "Reality" by the Greek writer Lucian in the first world of AD "History of the Moon" contains lunar travel. However, the world-recognized first science fiction novel is "Frankenstein" written by the British writer Mary Shelley in 1818!"
Hundreds of students of different ages sat in the classroom and experienced Lin Han's explanation. This was content they had never been exposed to. Many people knew that science fiction began with Lin Han's "Three Body" series. They talked about some science fiction novels, and I guess most of them were classic science fiction movies!
Lin Han turned his head and saw that it was a message from the official WeChat account of Peking University: "Welfare time! Teacher Lin's first class at Peking University caused a sensation. The lecture theater with more than 200 people could not accommodate that many people. Students who did not hear Mr. Lin’s lecture on the spot, don’t worry. Now go to the school’s official website and find the Academic Affairs Office. From the video course resources there, you can view the content of this issue in full. Each issue will be posted in the same location in the future.”
Everyone knows that Conan Doyle wrote detective novels, but science fiction is also an inseparable and important part of his literary path!
"By the way, I haven't asked you how it was for you to go to class for the first time today. Peking University students are so active in choosing courses, I guess they won't leave you alone."
It can be said that this group of people have fought their way in from among the many students at Peking University. They cannot waste such a good opportunity to be distracted or play with their mobile phones!
After two classes, the number of onlookers outside the lecture theater did not seem to have decreased, but a group of people had changed. Now that they saw Lin Han coming out, they all started taking photos excitedly, but they didn't get close, they stayed some distance away!
Edgar Allan Poe is the most famous writer, magazine critic, and poet in the United States. He is a true literary master. He is not only the leader of Gothic novels, but also an extremely important figure in the history of the development of science fiction!
Beijing has become a lot cooler in September, but the lingering power of autumn tigers is not small, so Lin Han quickly unbuttoned his shirt, rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, and while doing so, he replied: "Okay, you can be responsible for packing your things. I’ll do some hard work.”
At this time, Lin Han's throat was almost smoking. When he drove home, he saw Chen Jiaxuan busy in the living room with tape and cardboard boxes.
Sure enough, after using the keywords, the Weibo pictures posted by the students were enlarged, and he said to Chen Jiaxuan: "Dear, look at this, I think I will have to change classrooms next week."
"There are so many people. I have never encountered such a crowded class when I was in college!" Chen Jiaxuan took a breath of air. She knew that when Lin Han originally went to Peking University to teach, he was still a little hesitant and worried that the students would not eat. This set.
It's just that his science fiction novels and poems, as well as horror novels and Gothic novels are more low-key. Edgar Allan Poe's science fiction novels are not only rich in imagination and fascinating, but also have scientific theoretical basis and are convincing. .
The two of them cooperated very well. It didn't take long before eight large cardboard boxes were placed on the ground. I thought they didn't have much stuff and couldn't take anything away. After just packing up so much, Chen Jiaxuan was so tired that she collapsed on the sofa and laughed while looking at the big boxes!
The development of any literature is inseparable from the pioneering work of its predecessors. Lin Han himself said it with enthusiasm. He likes science fiction novels and movies, and he also wants to carve his own path like his predecessors!
The number of visits to Peking University's official website has surged since the Weibo account was forwarded by Lin Han's certified account. In the middle, the server even crashed due to the heavy traffic and the server could not handle so many people browsing!
In the lecture theater, Lin Han said that after class was over, he found that only a few of his students stood up, while most of them sat or stood and started applauding!
No wonder so many teachers have occupational diseases. No wonder teachers often buy Pangdahai soaked in water or golden voice. No profession is easy. Lin Han finally realized the difficulty of being a teacher!
Anyway, you can just bring your bags and move in to the newly purchased villa. There is no shortage of big things!
Lin Han sat next to Chen Jiaxuan and laughed: "It feels good to be a teacher. It's very comfortable to teach. I guess it's because I'm a good teacher in my heart. There are many older people inside who are also listening to me. You don't know Let me find a picture for you to see how many people are inside!"
In fact, the news that the classroom was full has been circulating on the Internet for a long time, but Lin Han was giving a lecture at that time and had no time to read online content. The topic had already risen to ninth place on the hot topic list!
Many science fiction writers of later generations, including the founders of the two major genres of modern science fiction: Jules Verne, the originator of hard science fiction, and Wells, the representative of soft science fiction, all admired Poe's science fiction novels. Or there is little trace of imitating Edgar Allan Poe!
Because Lin Han had a slight mysophobia in the past, their things were all placed very neatly. Now it is not difficult to pack them up. Anyway, they just keep some close-fitting clothes and frequently used things. Home appliances, furniture, kitchen utensils, etc. are all left here. Not sure when I will stay here again for one night.
"Okay, that's it for today's class. We will continue next week. If the class location changes next week, I will ask the teaching secretary to send the address to everyone in advance. Please tell each other after receiving it!"
The classroom where Lin Han teaches has changed from dozens of people to one or two hundred people, and now it has to be changed to a larger classroom. The Academic Affairs Office of Peking University is feeling pain and happiness!
Even for Peking University students, Mary Shelley is not a nobody. She is the wife of the famous British romantic poet Shelley!
The staff of the Peking University Computer Center were all horrified. They added temporary servers and posted notices on the Internet, but nothing improved for a while!
"Is it possible that when we are appreciating the novels of other science fiction writers later, you invite them to the scene?"
Why did time go by so fast in this class? It was like turning off the alarm clock and going to sleep. It seemed like an hour passed as soon as they closed and opened their eyes. They didn't listen enough at all, and they couldn't wait to take more classes.
Right now, the course he is teaching has no precedent in the country, so he can't find anything to learn from! At the same time, it also means that I will be a pioneer in this type of course, making science fiction a literature to study and study in a true sense!
I thought that Lin Han just went to campus just for fame like other writers, but I didn't know that he had real talent and practical knowledge. Classes were not a problem for him at all. Instead, he added a bit of future-related atmosphere to Peking University, a university with a long history.
Many students on campus who came over after hearing the news after watching WeChat Moments could only watch Lin Han get into his car and drive away without even entering the office where his office building is located.
"With the impetus of Jules Verne and George Wells, the genre of science fiction was officially created. Since then, people have established science fiction as a new genre of literature."
Chen Jiaxuan carefully took Lin Han's trophies out of the display window and placed them in a foam shock-absorbing box. These things are what she values most, even more important than her shoes, bags, and cosmetics.
In these photos, there are not only the crowds of onlookers in the dark outside, but also the orderly queues at the entrance of the classroom, as well as people who can't find a place inside the classroom!
The official website of a top university is a top priority. It is very rare that you can't get in. It's just a facade.
"Tell me, Mr. Lin, when will "Hyperion" be finished? I've been checking Weibo every day to wait for updates, and now I've led the whole dormitory into a science fiction pit!"
"In fact, science fiction has been around for a long time. Only by understanding the development history of science fiction literature can we know our original preferences from works of different periods."
Everyone doesn’t know much about the first author, but the subsequent “Frankenstein” is an enduring name and is a household name in the West!
After seeing the surprised expressions of the students, Lin Han continued: "After Mary Shelley, the American Edgar Allan Poe and the British Conan Doyle also wrote science fiction novels."
Nowadays, mainstream literature looks down on science fiction novels, but in the beginning, literary masters like Edgar Allan Poe wrote science fiction. The status of science fiction novels at that time was not low!
Internet users from all over the country wanted to see what Lin Han was talking about in class. Their curiosity directly destroyed the official website, causing people in the computer center to work overtime to maintain it!
Lin Han is very popular. The chattering words of these students opened his mind, "I will consider your proposal carefully. I will definitely not invite science fiction writers who are too old. After all, I can't summon spirits. Most of them can be invited. They are all contemporary writers, and I will try my best to arrange for science fiction celebrities to meet with you. As for "Hyperion", it's coming soon."
"You came back just in time. There are so many cardboard boxes, you first glue them together, then I put the packed things in them, and finally seal them all!"
He has many classic science fiction works, including "The Midas", "The Lost World", "The Toxic Professor" and other works that have been handed down. In fact, science fiction has a long history.
Chen Jiaxuan wore a camouflage fitness vest with her hair tied into a ponytail as she prepared to move to the villa.
Lin Han didn't have much rest after returning from Venice. He almost wrote novels and prepared the syllabus at the same time. Fortunately, he had a better head and overcame it tenaciously.
As a non-professional, Lin Han felt his throat was a little dry after speaking for more than ten minutes. At this time, he couldn't help but admire those teachers. Being able to talk about several classes without stopping required more than just having ink in his belly. , and the throat needs to be able to hold it.
…
"Ding, ding, ding, ding..."
The roar of applause made Lin Han very satisfied. His time spent on this was not in vain. It is a very lucky thing to have so many people become fans of science fiction novels.
Now the news and network link sent by Peking University’s official WeChat account not only allow Peking University students to listen to Lin Han’s courses, but can even be seen by people on the entire Internet.
Chen Jiaxuan clicked on the repost. She also wanted more people to see Lin Han's handsome appearance on the podium. She even bit her lip tonight and planned to try the role play of a teacher...
This group of students can basically restrain themselves. Although they like Lin Han's science fiction novels very much, no one has asked him for his autograph. This is so valuable!
But starting from the course selection, the Peking University student changed her mind little by little. If there are still people who are saying that Lin Han is just being angry on the Internet, then this full class is the real evidence, which can make students overcome All kinds of discomfort come to attend the class. If the class was not really interesting, why would there be so many people.
