No one came to disturb. Although Li Wenyuan, as a judge, had been here early in the morning, he must have been too busy to pay attention to Lin Han. And he would rather stay with the readers than talk and laugh with these authors, so he could only lie down. Playing on the phone in bed.
"Wang Yifan and Chen Chuhe, editors of "Science Fiction World", are you available now?"
"Okay, thank you for reminding me. Is everyone here now?" Lin Han has almost no friends here. Although there are many people from the Sci-Fi Nebula Group, they are basically all on the wrong track.
"Who?"
It's a good novel, but it's been treated in a way it shouldn't be. These people come out of nowhere, and they seem to be newly created accounts, but they can give one-star reviews.
"Don't flatter me. That magazine contains not only my articles, but also other people's content. Originally, "Science Fiction World" has a lot of readers, and I am just a catalyst."
Many people started to review the book without even buying it, which is very uncomfortable. If you haven't read it, you have no right to speak, so this also aroused the indignation of science fiction readers.
Following the navigation on his mobile phone and changing to the subway, he finally arrived outside the Shanghai World Expo pavilion. This was his destination. He had to first sign in at the Future Technology Conference and then check into the hotel under the guidance of the staff.
In fact, editors also have factional struggles. Lin Han's debut novel came from the master and apprentice Chen Chuhe. This is considered their direct lineage, so these two people specially came to visit Lin Han.
The environment of the room is generally very good, and you can still see the outside scenery when you open the curtains.
As long as he has a good relationship with Lin Han and lets his new works continue to be published on "Science Fiction World", Chen Chuhe will make money. This is all his performance and resources.
Wang Yifan looked like a college student. He was holding a copy of "I, Robot" in his hand, and then said: "The Galaxy Award is hosted by our magazine, so it is used as an employee benefit to invite everyone to come to Shanghai. Just for fun on a business trip.”
"It seems that your magazine is very profitable and the employee benefits are very good."
Chen Chuhe was not too modest, "It's better than before. It's all thanks to your "Rural Teacher" that the sales of our 11th issue of the magazine exceeded 1.7 million copies, and then the first chapter of "I, Robot" led the 12th issue of the magazine. Reaching 1.5 million copies, our average sales in 2016 successfully exceeded the one million mark. Now in 2017, we have become a best-selling magazine, and our advertising expenses have tripled, so the operating results are very good. This is all because of you of credit.”
Lin Han nodded, opened the door, got in, and asked the driver to take him to the conference hotel. After getting the key, he was surprised to find that everyone actually had a separate room and didn't have to live in a shared room with others. This was probably the most gratifying thing.
At this time, it has been half a month since the novel was released. Douban Reading has sold more than 150,000 copies. The number of people participating in the rating has reached more than 4,000. The final rating is 8.9 points!
Lin Han is actually a little dissatisfied with this rating. According to his opinion, it should be rated at 9 points. This is a science fiction classic that is well-known at home and abroad. Even if his changes are somewhat inappropriate, it should not be One star is right.
Often the sales growth in a day is about 120% or 145%, which is only an increase of one or two thousand downloads in a day, but the continuous increase is exciting.
The cumulative sales volume has now exceeded 10,000. As a novel with little publicity, "I, Robot" has successfully established a reputation among European and American science fiction readers, and more and more places have begun to talk about this novel.
"Did everyone from your editorial department come to this conference?" Lin Han asked curiously. He didn't know much about these things.
"It's convenient, why isn't it?" Lin Han opened the door and made an inviting gesture, "Please come in, let's sit down and talk."
For science fiction writers, this is the time for them to use their imaginations to develop their ideas, promote the integration between scientific invention applications and scientific fantasy, and make some things in the novel come true.
After putting away his luggage, Lin Han hung his suit in the cabinet. He will wear it to attend the awards ceremony tomorrow and try not to get it wrinkled.
Lin Han shrugged his shoulders and replied cheekily: "What are you surprised about? I'm younger and more handsome than other writers?"
At this time, a book signing for science fiction writers was taking place outside the venue. The well-known science fiction writer Wang Jinkang was constantly signing his name surrounded by readers. Wang Jinkang, who has won 15 Galaxy Awards, is over sixty years old this year. He has not stopped creating, and new works come out almost every year.
The etiquette lady smiled and said: "Most of the people have signed in, and there are still a few left. The science fiction writers are already in the hotel, you can contact each other."
He first sent a WeChat message to Chen Jiaxuan to express his safe arrival, and then called up the sales and evaluation content of "I, Robot" on Douban Reading.
Lin Han waved his hands repeatedly, but he was not dazzled by the victory.
From the rise of "Country Teacher" to the popular release of "I, Robot", Lin Han is like a piece of polished jade, constantly blooming.
While he was browsing the English comments below, he heard a knock on the door.
This is probably how netizens meet when they meet, slightly embarrassed.
After insisting on creating for so many years, the number of readers accumulated is naturally extraordinary, so there is a relatively large age gap at the book signing.
I am just a budding new science fiction author, but the organizer of the Future Technology Conference still did not take it lightly. It can be seen that a lot of money was spent on this.
After Lin Han signed in, the etiquette lady directed him to an Audi A6. This treatment seemed a bit too good.
Depressedly, Lin Han closed the Douban APP, hammered the pillow next to him with his hand, and then opened the Amazon website. Compared with the Chinese version, although the sales volume of the English version was less, the increase was astonishing.
"You can put it this way. When I first watched "Country Teacher", I thought it was written by a middle-aged man. This is a huge surprise. I hope you can win the Galaxy Award tomorrow." Chen Chuhe came here to build relationships, because He strongly recommended Lin Han's relationship, and now he has occupied an advantageous position in the competition for deputy editors.
Wang Yifan and Chen Chuhe came here just to see with their own eyes the new star of science fiction they had discovered. They sat on the sofa and said with a smile: "Although I have seen your photos online, I still feel a little surprised."
Lin Han was very confused as to who would look for him at this time. He was almost isolated in the circle of science fiction authors. Although others were envious, they were more jealous.
When technology and science fiction merge, what kind of chemical effects will be created
Lin Han walked out of Shanghai Hongqiao Airport alone, dragging his small suitcase. This city is extremely noisy. The subway station is built like a maze. People with a poor sense of direction may get lost.
Representatives of two cutting-edge fields gathered at the Future Technology Conference and used their own ideas to create sparks of inspiration, just like smart crowdfunding, which can promote the exploration and outlook of future technology.
This rating is higher than 99% of science fiction novels. Many people choose five-star ratings, which accounts for the majority, but there are also some mischievous people who choose one-star ratings, thinking that this is nonsense.
"Mr. Lin, please follow me. This is the driver of our conference. He will appear under the hotel on time at 8:30 tomorrow. Our conference will officially start at 9 o'clock, and the Galaxy Awards will be awarded at 10 o'clock. There will be Dragon TV and other media friends are coming and the winners will be interviewed, please forgive me."
