The World Science Fiction Convention, the most critical day.

Verno Vinci said something like this.

Thanks to Onigo for his work.

What is this doing?

Almost everyone was attracted to him, and the audience came from all over the world, and of course, most importantly, American science fiction enthusiasts, all gathered to hear what he had to say.

This man is Vinci, a master science fiction writer.

He's got enough capital, and right now, he's praising his opponent.

"Everyone!" Venki didn't stop, he seemed to get more and more excited the more he spoke, "I just read this one by Mr. Kigo yesterday, and there are many things I don't understand yet, but through Mr. Watanabe's explanation, I finally figured it all out. So, I have to stand here today and thank Mr. Kigo.

This work is very good and very profound.

I believe that many of you here today are my book lovers, and of course I am very grateful to all of you.

I also believe that people should know my work, and my work likes to build a good future, and this is also the case with "End of the Rainbow".

It's just that this work is essentially trying to talk about something of the moment.

After looking at Mr. Kigo's work, I realized the difference between Japan and the United States.

It's really, really big.

Mr. Kigo's work is a great way to explain an unexpected future from a Japanese perspective, even if it is not a future at all!

Mr. Kigo, thank you so much, thank you so much for allowing me to see such a wonderful work!"

After saying that, Funo also greeted Kigo's side.

Americans don't like to salute in general, and they don't like the Japanese.

Verno is still a master, and it is very rare for him to be able to do this.

Now,Of course, Mr. Onigo is on the scene.,His Kamen Rider V3 helmet,It's extremely attractive.,Fortunately,It's a science fiction convention here.,There's a lot of all kinds of COS.,It's not worse than C71.,So,He's also acceptable.。

But this time is different, the praise from the opponent has made more people more curious about Mr. Uigo.

Especially those Americans who are not familiar with Japan, American science fiction fans.

So...

"Kigo-sensei, do you have anything to say?" Chiaki Kamakura, who is worthy of being a professional reporter, was the first to rush forward.

What can Higashino say?

He also said hello to Vinci.

"Thank you Mr. Vinci as well. ”

His voice was processed, but the pace of his speech was slower, with a sense of spontaneity.

Although the two are rivals, they seem to be sympathetic to each other at the moment.

In this way, on today's most critical day, there is such a scene, which really makes people feel that the trip is worthwhile.

Then the next step is the crucial vote.

......

"You say, can Mr. Onigo win the Hugo Award?"

"This ...... It doesn't seem easy. ”

"You're going to win, right?"

"Look at you're not confident anymore. ”

Regarding this science fiction convention, Masami, Yui, Haruka-chan and Xiaoxiang are also very concerned.

It's just that before, Higashino Qiang had already told them that it was good to have a calm mind at this conference, and there was no need to care too much about the awards.

After all, Mr. Onigo himself is not good at science fiction, and this "Tokyo Lift" is really a feeling, on the surface it is a science fiction, but in fact it is a disadvantage of the times.

Therefore, whether you win the award or not, it is not the intention, it is good to get it, but if you can't get it, even if you come to participate once, it is a good experience.

The four girls are naturally very obedient, and they are also busy, but there should be no problem when they take a break from tea time and send emails and chat randomly.

I didn't show up, and besides, there was no broadcast of this conference.

But I still hope that my loved ones will win the prize.

Anyway, with their support, at least it's better than nothing.

However, they did not forget the other person.

"What the hell is going on with Yu-chan?"

"This ...... I don't know. ”

"I heard that she didn't want to star in "It's Your Turn". ”

"Xiaoxiang, you should work hard, and besides, don't you think this is You-chan who doesn't give you face?"

"Wow, it seems to have a sense of sowing discord. ”

"Haha......"

The girls' chats are very interesting, and the characteristics of Japan are really good enough to send emails to chat on your mobile phone.

At this time, voting for the World Science Fiction Convention has already begun.

......

"Master, what the hell is going on with that Wenqi? Could it be that he was really conquered by Master?"

"yes, Mr. Kigo, that guy looks weird. ”

"Ghost Go-sensei, tell us about it. ”

Genos and the others had already voted for their vote, and now they were waiting for the result, so of course, they couldn't help but ask Vinci about it.

Seeing this, under the mask, he really felt funny, but everyone was so supportive, he could only say it.

It's good that the place is big and they can find a place to talk to themselves.

"Actually, it's very simple. "Mr. Kigo's opening is very different.

Is it simple?

Could it really be that Wenqi was conquered by the work of Mr. Kigo?

As soon as he saw everyone's expressions, Higashino Qiang understood what they thought, so he said directly: "It's not a conquest, but because of the difference in perspective." ”

Visual angle?

You think this is a very interesting idea.

Higashino continued: "You shouldn't have read much of Vinci's works, and I haven't read much, but I can probably summarize that Vinci is a master writer of cyberpunk, and his works have a lot of construction for the future.

But Vinch, or rather, America's science fiction writers, love to build such a future.

That is, a futuristic world that seems to be utopia, the future society is at least superficially perfect, everywhere is full of technology, and human beings are becoming more and more convenient.

But this utopia is only scratching the surface.

European and American science fiction writers are very fond of starting from the surface of this utopia, and then writing about the deep-seated problems contained in what lies beneath the surface.

It can be simply summed up, that is, the problems of human society now, in the utopian society of the future, these problems are only covered up, but not really solved.

This is the European and American science fiction writer like Mr. Vinci, who is best and favorite in writing. ”

As the saying goes, as soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one.

Mr. Onigo's explanation shocked Genos and the others beyond measure.

"Master, you're too strong!"

"Wow, Dong...... Ghost me, you're really powerful. ”

"It's a ghost teacher, and I know so much about European and American literature. ”

These people are all ghosts, and their behavior at this time is really normal.

Higashino Qiang blushed a little, but what he said was indeed the most common routine of European and American science fiction.

It's even like that, it's been written this way since a long time ago, and then it's been like this until now even Susan Colin's "The Hunger Games".

Although this way is more old-fashioned, European and American readers are more likely to eat this one.

Moreover, there are many, many social problems at the moment, and it is not inspiring to write about them in this way.

Well, I have to talk about it.

"As for Vinki's "The End of the Rainbow", have you seen it?" Higashino asked first.

Most of the people shook their heads, but only Asano raised his hand this time.

"I've seen that, but I don't seem to understand it. ”

Asano's face was red, is this considered a betrayal of Kigo-sensei?

Higashino Qiang laughed, "It's nothing, it's good to read more books, but, why didn't you understand?"

Asano had no choice but to continue: "It seems that this one wants to say something, but it seems that it didn't say anything. ”

When everyone heard this, they burst out laughing.

Teacher Kigo waved his hand, "Actually, that's right. ”

Hearing Kigo's approval, Asano was very happy.

Higashino is strong under the mask, he has a feeling of going to class, but this feeling is not bad, go ahead.

"This "End of the Rainbow" seems to be written in the future, but in fact, in my opinion, this book wants to talk about the problems that exist in developed countries all over the world today...... Aging. ”

When the word aging appeared, Asano suddenly realized.

The others couldn't help but nod.

When it comes to aging, how can Japan be willing to live under the people?

Japan is one of the most aging societies today.

The general content of "The End of the Rainbow" is like this, that is, a vegetative person, because of the future development of science and technology, he was rescued, and after being rescued, he needs to learn a lot of things.

But he is in a vegetative state, he is very old, and when he learns these things, he is not as good as his granddaughter.

Moreover, the protagonist was originally a powerful poet and artist...... That's right, if you don't have money, you can't survive into the future.

Of course, there is still a conspiracy in it, which is the routine that Higashino Qiang just said.

But in fact, rewind this time as a whole, wake up the vegetative person, and replace it with an old man and an old lady who can't keep up with the development of science and technology.

Is there a difference?

There is even a plot in the book to teach texting...... Seriously, when Higashino Qiang saw this, he also thought it was funny, because will he still need to text in the future?

Of course, this kind of detail doesn't matter.

In other words, this is also a practical issue.

Aging.

"So, what about Kigo-sensei's "Tokyo Lifting"?"

Just one hint.

The big guy understood it almost instantly.

Both works are about real problems and social problems.

And Wen Qi's words before contacting him, it can be simply seen that he also understands.

The difference between Japan and the United States.

That's the key.

The future society that Vinci constructs is always so utopian.

But what about science fiction on the Japanese side?

In terms of anime, what are they?

Go to pieces!

On the Japanese side, as Watanabe-sensei said, the word 'collapse' is the most common work that can be summed up in the category of science fiction.

Why is there such a difference?

The perspective of observation is different!

Japan is a country where the Japanese themselves are constantly saying that there is no hope.

And on the American side, many people are still saying that the future will be better.

Therefore, these two works really reflect two perspectives, two social perspectives.

How could Vinci not get excited?

This is because the works of Mr. Kigo are the perspectives of society that he has never tried before.

So, what is the result of this battle at the World Science Fiction Convention?

"The voting results are in!"

"Teacher, let's go and see. ”

"Master, come on!"

Here it is, and finally the results are there.

Who will win?

PS: The first update is sent, don't worry, the black car will work hard to code words.
