Chapter 333 Cyberdaji
At night, the entire night sky was shrouded in stars.
In the study, Ma Wanmei read "Science Fiction World" from beginning to end, and was amazed:
"Old man, I don't think this is a science fiction novel, but more like a science fiction novel. A ghost novel like "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio""
"This is just the beginning."
Ma Shitu stopped the pen in his hand, "I have already agreed with Xiao Fang to ask him to send me the complete "Midnight Ring"."
Ma Wanmei poked her head over curiously, "What did you say from just now? I just kept writing, what on earth were I writing?”
Ma Shitu said: "Of course it is a review article for "Midnight Ring" and "Science Fiction World". I want to publish it in a newspaper in Sichuan."
Ma Wanmei took a closer look. , not just one article, but three whole articles.
“This article is for “Rongcheng Daily”, this article is for “Rongcheng Daily”, and the last one is for “Sichuan-Shu Daily”.
"So many!"
"Where are you now? At least I have to write an article for "Sichuan and Sichuan Literature"."
Ma Shitu said with emotion: "At the beginning, "Science Fiction Literature and Art" When the issue was first published, I was the one to write the inaugural words. This time it was Nirvana. Rebirth, how can this first issue of "Science Fiction World" be without me?"
Ma Wanmei picked up one of the articles and saw the title clearly read:
"Use science fiction to ignite the spark of fantasy."
This article appeared in the "Rongcheng Daily" two days later.
“Scientific fantasy originates from real life, inspires novel discoveries, unleashes free imagination, and plays an important guiding role in the development of science and technology. Throughout history, the emergence and prosperity of science fiction culture interacts with the process of industrialization and modernization The spiral..."
Many readers read that Ma Shitu recommended "Science Fiction World". According to the information and address given in the newspaper, they either wrote letters or made phone calls to the publisher. The company subscribed to this issue of "Science Fiction World".
The number of subscriptions in just one day exceeded the previous average monthly sales of 600 copies of "Science Fiction Literature and Art".
Moreover, with the growth rate of magazine subscriptions, and the continuous reports from Sichuan and Sichuan media, the attention of "Science Fiction World" in the entire Sichuan and Chongqing region has skyrocketed, especially when the "Sichuan and Sichuan Daily" "leaked" this There will be novels by Fang Xiaojiang in the next issue of the magazine.
The mailboxes in the entire editorial office were quickly filled with letters.
The phone calls are almost never disconnected.
Sales have jumped from a low of 600 copies to successfully breaking through the 10,000-copy mark.
With such high expectations, and on the third day after Fangyan left Chengdu, "Science Fiction World" began to be released nationwide!
Zhu Lu was riding his bicycle early in the morning, wandering around as if he had nothing to do.
In sight, whether they are adults or children, they are sitting at the door, either arranging a dragon gate formation to show the shortcomings of parents and the long love of children, or playing chess and cards, playing mahjong for a while, and others, quietly reading books and newspapers, holding hands. There are all kinds of magazines on the shelves.
"Martial Arts", "Story Club", "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times"...
Of course, you can also see the cover of "Science Fiction World" and hear men and women talking about "Midnight Ring" discussion.
“Isn’t that what’s in the newspaper fake news? What kind of science fiction novel did Teacher Fang write?”
“No! I read it under the quilt at night, I broke out in a cold sweat!”
"How dare you stay up all night to watch this? You are so brave!"
"Forget it, when I heard the phone call now, I thought it was Sadako calling me."
>"But horror is horror, and scary is scary. Man, but this "Midnight Ring" has something to do with science fiction?"
"Isn't it written above? If you want to know what happened next, please see the breakdown in the next issue."
“…………”
Listening to everyone talking incessantly, the corners of Zhu Lu's mouth turned up unconsciously, and he pedaled his bicycle more vigorously, speeding to Eying Factory.
Unexpectedly, I found that the discussion of "The Ring" in the factory has reached a higher level.
Especially Han Sanping and Teng Jinxian, they were sitting face to face in the cafeteria, each holding a copy of "Science Fiction World" in their hands.
National literary and art newspapers such as "Literary Newspaper" and "Literary Newspaper" are circulated among each other. In addition to the comments of the editorial department of this newspaper, the Japanese media's evaluation of "The Ring" is also reproduced.
Teng Jinxian's eyes widened, "Teacher Fang's novel has really sold more than one million copies in Japan?!"
"That's right, director!"
Han Sanping said: "So we absolutely cannot sit back and watch "Midnight Ring" be taken away by the Guixi Factory."
"Yes, yes, yes, You must grab it!”
Teng Jinxian nodded repeatedly.
“As long as we can get "Midnight Ring", maybe we can open up a new situation not only in China."
Han Sanping's eyes flashed, "Perhaps we can become famous in Japan like "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog"!"
"You are right, no matter what method we use, our factory You must get "Midnight Ring"!" Teng Jinxian said firmly.
"The Mountain, That Man, That Dog" has become a hit overseas, and the box office has exceeded 2 billion yen so far, which is enough to make Guixi Film Studio proud and famous in front of film peers across the country. For a moment!
This time, "Midnight Ring", we can't let the Guixi Factory shoot it again! Eying Factory also wants to make progress!
Thinking of this, I stared closely at the news in the "Literary News":
"Breaking the inherent concept of science fiction! The charming moment of Oriental science fiction horror!"
That's right. Because of this report, Liu Cixin, who is studying at North China Water Resources Institute, bought a copy of "Science Fiction World".
Right now, this magazine is undoubtedly a hot commodity on the entire campus and even in the entire city.
Especially for science and engineering men, science fiction literature always has an indescribable and unexplained charm.
As early as when Ye Yonglie's "Personal Smartphones Roam the Future" was published, I had been very fond of domestic science fiction novels.
I was even eager to try and start writing science fiction short stories.
Unfortunately, in a twist of fate, under the severe situation of "spiritual pollution", domestic science fiction literature has fallen into a low ebb, and publishers can no longer publish or publish science fiction novels.
The novel Liu Cixin wrote could not be published anywhere, so he simply gave up writing it, thus drifting away from science fiction literature.
Who would have expected that the famous young general Fang would dare to risk the disapproval of the world and write science fiction novels!
It is a science fiction horror novel that I have never read before!
"It turns out that science fiction novels can still be written like this. I really deserve to be Teacher Fang..."
Liu Cixin turned over the pages of "Science Fiction World", with sparks like stars in his eyes, and created science fiction literature. Desire is rekindled.
How about taking a break from class and writing about science fiction?
Why don't you wait until you are assigned to work in a thermal power plant and sneak in a fish?
…………
At the same time, Shanghai Science Education Film Studio.
As the "big brother of Chinese science fiction literature", Ye Yonglie watched "Science Fiction World" and "Midnight Ring" over and over again, and couldn't help but sigh.
"There is a successor! There is a successor to science fiction literature!"
Seeing her husband's excitement, Yang Huifen knew it very well.
Ever since the "spiritual pollution" began, Ye Yonglie became the first target of criticism. Faced with overwhelming verbal and written criticism and endless attacks, he was finally forced to switch from science fiction novels to writing documentary literature. There was a feeling of grievance.
"It is said that dialects have a literary courage. They are not afraid of the sky or the earth. They dare to write anything. They are truly well-deserved!"
Ye Yonglie is full of admiration for this young general Fang who has never met him. and envy.
"You are bold enough. Look at what the newspapers say." Yang Huifen picked up the newspaper and read: "Recently, a well-known writer published a book under the banner of 'science education' and 'science fiction'. 'Signboard, selling some small cloth We must be very careful about the Erqiuya style rags. This is a serious pollution to the masses.”
Ye Yonglie said: “This is the argument again. When I was criticized, wasn’t it the same way? ”
"There is something even more outrageous. Talking in dialect is 'literary demons making trouble' and 'simply treason'!"
Yang Huifen picked up another newspaper.
Previously, because dialects supported martial arts novels, supported the revival of popular literature, and the spread of pop music, they were repeatedly called "literary demons" by the conservatives in the literary and art circles.
Now that Dialect has fired the first shot at "revitalizing science fiction literature," it is inevitable that it has been called a "literary demon". Not surprisingly, in public opinion, it has been attacked by conservatives.
It is comparable to the six major factions besieging Guangmingding!
"Science fiction is childish and ridiculous in literary works, and it is a poor category of literary works!"
""The Ring" is just like other science fiction novels, vulgar and without literary value."< br>
“I didn’t expect a The winner of the Mao Dun Literary Award and the winner of the National Book Award has fallen to this point!"
"..."
With such turbulent public opinion, Ye Yonglie can no longer watch it. Went down and started to support the dialect in newspapers.
No matter who is revitalizing Chinese science fiction literature, Ye must help.
There are many science fiction writers who have the same idea.
Zheng Wenguang, Xiao Jianheng, and Tong Enzheng, who are also known as the "Four King Kongs of Chinese Science Fiction" with him, came off the field to help out.
At the same time, there are also critics, writers, editors, and publishers in other literary fields who openly support dialects.
Sure enough, she is the monster in the article, Cyber Daji!
A copy of "The Ring" is like an arrow piercing the clouds, allowing thousands of troops in the literary world to be driven by him! Conquer for him!
Under the charge of Fang Xiaojiang and "Science Fiction World", countless people launched rounds of fierce debates against the opposition.
The focus of the debate is, does China need science fiction literature?
Regarding this issue, Fang Yan is immersed in writing a manuscript, "Science fiction plays the role of 'revelator', 'foresighter' and 'motivator' in promoting the development of science and technology..."
“Convert ‘imagination’ into ‘productivity’ and use the science fiction industry to ignite the engine of the future. In short, it is ‘science fiction literature can imagine, but science and technology are responsible for realizing it’!”
The title of this manuscript is -
"Science and Technology are Productive Forces"!
