"One Day Prisoner" is about a criminal from the future, who is sentenced by the court to spend the rest of his life only within 24 hours of a day, that is, from 0:00 on the first day to 24:00 at night, the world will reset to the previous day.

There is a creative aspect, but it is not without precedent, just like "Groundhog Day" released in 1993, the male protagonist repeats his life infinitely for a day, and no one else knows it except for himself.

This concept of infinite reincarnation in a certain day and a certain period of time is still relatively common in later generations, but at the moment, it is full of creativity, and Xing Xinyi, a veteran science fiction writer who has been creating for decades, was shocked by this exquisite fantasy!

Especially Mr. B in this "One Day Prisoner", he has been imprisoned by time and space for ten years, more than 3,600 days in these ten years, every day is exactly the same, and the only one who remains unchanged is Mr. B.

It's like a lake of clear water, Mr. B is a pebble, he fell into the lake, stirred up the waves, and soon the ripples returned to calm again, as if there had never been a pebble, and there was no so-called waves.

Therefore, when Xing Shinichi substituted himself into Mr. B in this article, the fear of being imprisoned for a day suddenly appeared, followed by a wave of excitement, "Mr. Huo, this is the most wonderful miniature sci-fi I have ever seen, I bet that this is definitely the most exciting, no less than Isaac Asimov's "I, Robot"!"

"Mr. Xing, you are too famous, how can you compare to Mr. Asimov's "I, Robot". Huo Yaowen is still a little self-aware, Asimov's "I, Robot" can be said to have created the three unchangeable laws of the robot genre, even after decades, it has been highly respected by the public.

Although his "One Day Prisoner" has been revised, there are still many hard injuries, and the logic is completely incomparable with "I, Robot", at best, it is a soft science fiction, mainly creative.

Xing Xinyi said excitedly: "No, no, I definitely have no reputation, this short article is indeed very, very good, it is the best science fiction I have seen in recent years!"

Yu Guangzhong glanced at Xing Xinyi, who was very excited, and was very curious about what kind of story was written on the manuscript paper in his hand, so he couldn't help but open his mouth and said: "Mr. Xing, I think this one in my hand is also very good, let's take a look at it." ”

"Good. Xingxin nodded, exchanged the manuscript paper, endured the surging in his heart, and handed it to the translator next to him.

Yu Guangzhong also began to look at this "One Day Prisoner", which was highly respected by Xing Xinyi.

Zhang Chengyi saw that one of them was listening carefully to the Japanese translation, and the other was still reading the manuscript paper carefully, he also smiled, turned his head to look at Huo Yaowen and said, "It seems that the three short essays you wrote are very good." ”

"It's okay, the writing time is a bit short, and the logic and details are not particularly perfect. It only took Huo Yaowen a day to write these three short essays, after all, the story was already in his mind, and he only needed to transcribe it according to his own writing style.

Zhang Chengyi didn't understand the writing skills very well, so he didn't say much, but changed the topic and said: "I may have to go to Australia after a while." ”

"Going to Australia?" Huo Yaowen was stunned for a few seconds, and then thought of Zhang Chengyi's son who worked in Australia, "Teacher, is this going to find your son?"

Zhang Chengyi said: "Yes, my son has run a Chinese school in Australia, and now there is a shortage of people, and he will not be able to find it for a while, so he sent a telegram to me, wanting me to go there to be a principal." ”

"Oh, congratulations, teacher, you're going to be a headmaster. Huo Yaowen smiled, although the teacher is almost 70 years old, and his health was a little bad in the first two years, but he has been in a lot of energy recently, and he seems to have cultivated well, and he has been staying at home to care for the elderly, I'm afraid he doesn't have that patience.

Before the four-month fires in Australia, the surrounding environment and air can be said to be among the best in the world, and it is a Chinese school, so there are not so many bad things to think about.

"What kind of headmaster, just let me go up. Zhang Chengyi said this, but he seemed to be quite happy on his face, he had done a lifetime of education work, and staying at home when he was old was also a kind of torment for him.

"That's the principal, by the way, what kind of school is it?"

"It's like a primary school and a middle school, and the main students are mainly Chinese. ”

Zhang Chengyi thought for a while and said: "The school is in Melbourne, which is the city with the largest concentration of Chinese in Australia. He partnered with some local Chinese businessmen to open such a Chinese school. ”

"Then the teacher settled in Australia in the future?" Huo Yaowen said with some reluctance.

"I might stay for a while, and if I find a teacher there, I'll probably come back, after all, I've lived in Hong Kong for decades, and I don't really want to change the environment. ”

Zhang Chengyi hesitated for a few seconds, he actually didn't want to leave Hong Kong, after all, his friends and students are here, but his sons and grandchildren are all in Australia, and when people are old, they will inevitably want to have children and grandchildren full of joy and happiness on their knees.

"Alright. Don't talk about these things, when the time comes, I will fly to Australia with your wife, you have to come to see me, your wife has prepared a lot of luggage and specialties, and it is not very convenient to take a taxi. ”

Zhang Chengyi smiled.

"Okay, when the time comes, the teacher will notify me in advance and make sure to be on call. ”

"Si Guoyi!"

Suddenly.

Xing Xinyi shouted excitedly again, raised his eyes to look at Huo Yaowen, a large string of Japanese came out of his mouth, and Huo Yaowen was sore in the head when he listened to it, and even the translator was a little too late to translate.

When the translator translates it, it can be attributed to one sentence, that is, this sci-fi essay is also very exciting!

Compared with Xing Xinyi's second excitement, after reading this "One Day Prisoner", Yu Guangzhong did not watch "Truman's World" before.

In Yu Guangzhong's view, "Truman's World" is a very literary work, with a Truman who has lived in a studio since he was a child, and he has never seen the real world, nor the real sea, let alone the sky.

His whole life has been watched by the audience and arranged by the program team, which makes Yu Guang's heart full of depression. Until the end, Truman opened the door to the outside world, and the "God" who made him and all this appeared.

Faced with the happy life arranged for him by "God", Truman resolutely gave up all this and chose the real new world that he had never been exposed to.

Therefore, although the short article "One Day Prisoner" is also full of a lot of meaning, Yu Guangzhong does not like it very much.

appeased Xing Shinichi, who was very excited, and repeatedly promised the other party to hand over the copyright of the three manuscripts in Japan to him for operation.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Huo, don't worry, I will definitely let Japanese readers see it. Xing Shinichi got up and bowed excitedly.

"Mr. Star is polite. ”

bowed at every turn, plus the chat needed an interpreter, Huo Yaowen only said a few words politely, and then turned his head to look at Yu Guangzhong.

He has always liked Yu Guangzhong, who was called the last night watchman in the poetry world by later generations, whether it is the love poems he wrote or modern poems such as "Homesickness", his talent is also obvious to all.

Huo Yaowen said: "Mr. Yu, I haven't sat down with you to talk to you a few times before, and it's rare for everyone to be free today. ”

Yu Guangzhong said with a smile: "I don't dare to teach, everyone learns from each other and learns from each other." ”

Huo Yaowen handed some of the published and unpublished poems he had written before, including "Birds and Fish" and "Hometown", to Yu Guangzhong, Teacher Zhang, and Xing Xinyi.
