The cold wind was biting on the palms of his hands, and Han Xuelin pushed hard with his feet. The journey that originally took five or six minutes only took about three minutes.
He found Classroom 108 and found that it was the busiest place. Many people were already waiting with their schoolbags on their backs.
The beginning of the novel is very simple. The heroine returns from a date with her husband and the child has not yet been born. However, Han Xuelin has been accustomed to third-person novels before. Now at first glance, when I see the heroine using a mixture of first-person and second-person pronouns, I feel a little uncomfortable. .
Fang Jie shook his head. He had just studied all the way up. His knowledge of kung fu was only from movies and TV shows. He had no idea where he learned it.
Fang Jie made an appointment with his friends to go to the bar in the evening, but at this time he took the time to buy the first issue of the electronic version of "The Age of Fantasy".
As expected, this time the alien is different from other coquettish bitches, she is simply a breath of fresh air among the aliens!
When Han Xuelin saw this, he couldn't help but become interested. In fact, this was probably the first time that Lin Han described in detail how humans entered alien spaceships. The novels he had written before were all described in one sentence, very simple. .
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Han changed the subject, twelve alien spaceships suddenly appeared all over the world. According to the tradition of science fiction novels, you would know at a glance that aliens are coming to cause trouble!
Finally, the heroine mentioned that she wanted to communicate with aliens by writing. Written sentences were much easier to read than spoken sentences!
Amazon, Douban and other places provide paid downloads of the electronic version. The layout of the electronic version is more suitable for mobile phones and readers, and the price is also much cheaper.
Elena is not a beauty in the traditional sense. She was a little disgusted after hearing Fang Jie's words, but she still moved closer to him, "What content is there on the phone that you can't stop watching? It can give us Tell me?"
The classmates from the Science Fiction Association were checking the list one by one. After confirming that it was this person, they handed them a magazine. The thick pile of magazines piled next to them looked very spectacular!
On the morning of New Year's Day, Han Xuelin was awakened by a text message on his mobile phone.
After queuing all the way, Han Xuelin used his student meal card to prove his identity, then took the magazine to the classroom next to him. He planned to finish reading it here.
Han Xuelin has too many questions in his mind, and this novel seems to have a lot of fog.
Delivered so quickly
"Hello, classmates, the latest issue of "Fantasy Age" magazine has arrived. Please bring your valid ID to 108, Tongbo Building to pick it up. Students from the Science Fiction Association will stay in classroom 108 until 11:30 in the morning."
It was only around eight o'clock in the morning, and it was still holiday time. Not sleeping until ten o'clock would be a blasphemy to this holiday!
The heroine Qiao Yu is naturally invited as a leader in linguistics, and there are other members in this team, one of whom is the hero who is a physics professor!
What can you do with three dollars
The handsome white guy who was driving excitedly honked the car horn and said exaggeratedly: "Of course I have seen it! The movie is very cool. I have watched it several times. Trinity is so sexy! Bro, do you know any new news?"
Among overseas Chinese and international students, quite a few of them like Lin Han's science fiction novels very much. This love is not only for the content, but also for the results!
After hearing the hint, this guy finally couldn't help but take a look at Elena. Unfortunately, this slightly punk woman was not his cup of tea. "I'm going to be with you tonight, are you going to abandon me?"
"Why is this timeline so weird?"
The car drove smoothly forward, reggae music began to blast from the car radio, and several people in the car howled along, but Fang Jie turned a deaf ear to these noises. He finished watching "Arrival" in a daze!
The Chinese guy in the passenger seat said jokingly: "Elena wants to ask you alone if you have any plans!"
"I'm reading the new book written by Lin Han. You have all seen "The Matrix", right? That is the work of his director!"
Overseas party members are almost all people who are not short of money. After they have become accustomed to the price levels in Europe and the United States, when they look at domestic consumption, it is simply not too cheap!
This is not the first time that Fang Jie has heard others praise "The Matrix", but every time he hears it, he feels a sense of pride from the bottom of his heart, "Did you know that there is a sequel to "The Matrix"? That movie is said to be It will be released next summer!”
Due to the time difference, the New Year's bell has not yet sounded in Europe, the United States and other countries, but they can't wait to log in to their Amazon accounts around the world and download the long-awaited magazines.
Now is the time for international students to have a vacation, but due to air tickets or other reasons, some of them did not return to their home countries, but stayed near the school or went out together to play!
Han Xuelin knew that Lin Han always took an unconventional path, so he was full of expectations to see how this science fiction master would handle the subsequent plot.
After entering the spacecraft, the heroine wanted to communicate with the alien heptapods. Unfortunately, no matter what she said, the aliens were indifferent. Although the sounds they made were recorded by the instruments, they had no idea what they meant.
"Hi, Fang. What are you looking at? We were just asking you, what are your plans later?"
The situation looks very tense, and a cosmic war will start if you are not careful.
China chose to negotiate with aliens, while the United States and Russia decided to use force head-on, so the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Navy SEALs, and others gathered in Los Angeles Harbor to confront the giant alien spacecraft.
There are many people who have the same idea as him. There are basically one or two people in each row in Classroom 109, and everyone consciously does not want to be next to others!
The future tense here is still memories!
Fortunately, when he saw the back part, he finally understood from the separator symbols. It turned out that the novel was developed in two main lines. One was in the past tense, and it was written to recall the heroine's experience of studying and learning the heptapod language with her husband and others. ; The other one is in the future tense, writing about the heroine’s memories of her child’s growth!
"This is really good news. I really hope that after spending the New Year tonight, it will be summer vacation when I wake up. I decided to make money and learn Chinese Kung Fu. Fang, do you know where I can learn it?"
He rubbed his eyes, opened his sleepy eyes, and unlocked the phone with his fingers. Only when he looked at it did he realize that it was a message from the school's science fiction association!
The sci-fi atmosphere at the beginning of the novel is not strong. Han Xuelin only knew that the heroine was studying linguistics. However, he became aware of the possibility of aliens through the conversation between the army colonel and the heroine.
"Didn't we agree to go clubbing together tonight?" Fang Jie couldn't bear to move his eyes away from the phone screen, sitting on the back seat of the car.
Could it be that the heroine was reborn and she knows the future so clearly
Han Xuelin put down his schoolbag. He couldn't wait to open the Fantasy Era, found "Arrival" at the front, and then read it carefully.
If you download a magazine in the United States, you can download several copies in China, so they are not willing to spend money. Anyway, they do not subscribe to "The Age of Fantasy" all the time, but only buy one occasionally.
It's not the same thing to just wait. The Chinese government began to form a special operations team to find out what the aliens were doing.
Sometimes when you come to a new environment, cultural conflicts are inevitable and many things have changed. However, Lin Han is a writer that is loved by both Chinese and foreign readers. They have common topics and hobbies.
Fang Jie is tall and tall, he also consciously keeps fit and plays basketball quite well, so he is very popular and does not have the traditional image of a nerd.
They don't blow up the Great Wall, they don't destroy the White House, they don't deal with the Statue of Liberty and London's Big Ben, and they don't communicate with people on earth. The spaceships just hang quietly in mid-air.
Han Xuelin didn't care about sleeping in. He turned over and got out of bed. After washing up at a sprint speed of 100 meters, he grabbed his mobile phone, wallet and bicycle keys and rushed out of the dormitory door!
The original paper version costs 6 yuan, but the electronic version only costs 3 yuan, which saves more than half. It is also easier to carry around. You can take out your mobile phone to read whenever you have some spare time.
The whole earth is in panic. It's war or peace, but it has to be said. It's so quiet that it's scary!
A bottle of mineral water costs two yuan. Three yuan is just enough to buy a bottle of Coca-Cola, but not enough to buy Red Bull Pulse!
A blond woman with a nose stud asked, her English full of exotic accent.
Facing human words and words, these aliens also gave their own response, a semicircle with continuous cursive writing like an ink painting at the top of the screen.
In these places, the study of linguistics is eye-catching. It turns out that the sound spectrogram looks like this, and there are different vibrating sounds, and each vibrating sound has a different meaning!
…
Of course, if the plot really goes like this, then "Arrival" is just an ordinary science fiction novel, and it is not worth Lin Han's time to describe it. There are a lot of such works!
Because the heroine has the ability to predict the future under the influence of learning the language of the heptapods, Lin Han is asking the heroine to use the tone of reminiscence and the future tense to describe it. When she sees the future scene, it is already several years ago. It happened years ago!
Obviously these methods of communicating with aliens are a bit boring, but Han Xuelin is still happy for every progress of the heroine team. He is looking forward to the day when humans can truly unlock the language of the heptapods!
To decipher a completely unknown language, it takes more than just a few sentences. Qiao Yu and her team members studied it repeatedly for a long time, but to no avail.
It was during the final review period. Even though there was a three-day holiday for New Year's Day, there were still many people occupying seats in the empty classroom for review.
