The name "Xianghuitang" comes from the old principals of Fudan, Ma Xiangbo and Li Dhui. Because of the same name and surname, we had to use subtitles instead, and Mr. Li could only smile bitterly in the sky.

It is a two-story building with blue tiles and white walls, which was overhauled ten years ago, but it is still basically the same as it was half a century ago.

Before liberation, there were countless masters who gave lectures in Xianghui Hall.

After the liberation, Sanghuitang also gathered celebrities, such as the president of the Soviet Union, the secretary of the French Communist Party, the president of the United States, the president of France, and the president of South Korea...... All of them have appeared on the podium, and the world premiere of "Red Sorghum" is also here.

But more often than not, Xianghuitang belongs to Fudan students, debating competitions, poetry recitals, drama performances, club activities...... There's something new basically every week.

Just last weekend, Song Weiyang also listened to a lecture at Xianghui Hall, and the protagonist was Lin Nan, vice president of the American Sociological Association and academician of Wanwan Academia Sinica. Professor Lin's lecture topic is "Social Capital", and the core idea is that the higher the social status of the person, the more opportunities to absorb social resources, and the greater the heterogeneity of a person's social network, the higher the probability of absorbing social resources through weak relationships, and the richer people's social resources, the better the results of instrumental actions.

Song Weiyang very much agrees with this theoretical point of view, but has reservations about the sub-proposition that Professor Lin has discussed, and he even directly refutes it in the free question session.

At about four o'clock that afternoon, Song Weiyang stood up in front of hundreds of teachers and students and said, "Professor Lin, your theory is correct, but I am afraid that the implementation is ridiculously wrong. Your theory of social capital is based on the rational choices of individuals, so as to maximize the benefits of social resources. But in our daily life, it is difficult to be completely rational, and even give up interests because of emotional factors. Especially in a humane society like China, people do not pursue maximizing profits and minimizing losses, but choose to value harmony, and there is even an old saying that 'suffering is a blessing'. Your capital theory does not take into account human face and cultural factors, just as basic physics does not consider air friction. Doing things strictly according to your theories is going to go wrong. ”

As soon as these words came out, the face of the head of the social department of Fudan at that time darkened.

Lin Nanke is the vice president of the American Sociological Association and a world-renowned sociologist who was invited by Fudan to give a lecture in China. An undergraduate in the Department of Sociology dares to raise such a sharp objection, just like an athlete who has just learned boxing to question Tyson's punching problems.

Lin Nan was stunned, and then smiled: "This is a new topic. My theory of social capital, like the mechanics formulas of physics, does need to ignore air friction. When solving specific problems, we need to take friction into account, and perhaps my next topic is "The Use of Social Capital and the Deviation of Cultural Factors". Do you have any questions?"

"No, thank you!" Song Weiyang bowed and sat down.

After the lecture, the head of the Department of Social Sciences at Fudan personally handed over a note and said to Song Weiyang: "This is Professor Lin's personal mailing address in the United States, and if you have any sociology questions in the future, you can write directly to Professor Lin to ask him for advice." You're nice, young man, but be humble when you write your letter. Got it?"

"Yes, I will correct it. Song Weiyang smiled and put away the address, his goal had been achieved, he just wanted to attract Lin Nan's attention.

The head of the department said, "Professor Lin thinks that you have a very promising future in sociology, and if you can be admitted to Duke University in the United States, he is willing to be your mentor. This is a good opportunity, Professor Lin doesn't recruit many graduate students anymore, and he has PhDs under him. ”

"I'm going to get it. Song Weiyang said with a smile, in fact, he didn't think about studying abroad at all, and just wanted to write to ask for advice when he encountered problems.

The head of the department asked, "What's your name?"

"Freshman, Song Weiyang. Song Weiyang said.

"Keep up the good work!" the head of the department patted Song Weiyang on the shoulder, which was considered to have memorized this student.

The head of the department has already enjoyed the special government allowance two years ago, and will be transferred to the central government in the future, but unfortunately the focus of his work is "population and family planning" - could it be that Song Weiyang will go to him for help when he has a second child in the future?

……

This weekend, Song Weiyang walked into Xianghui Hall again.

Don't look at the fact that there are not many people who usually pay attention to science fiction literature, as soon as the Science Fiction Association held an event, the auditorium was directly filled. A lot of students just come to join in the fun, anyway, as long as Xianghuitang has activities, if you are interested or not, you can come and see, in the era of lack of entertainment projects, the party is the biggest entertainment.

"Everyone, please be quiet!"

Guo Tao, president of the Science Fiction Society, stood on the rostrum beamingly and said in a passionate tone: "I would like to solemnly announce that just a few days ago, Song Weiyang and Nie Jun of our association won the Galaxy Award! What is the Galaxy Award? It is the highest award in Chinese science fiction literature! Since its establishment in 1986, the Galaxy Award has always had only the first prize and the second prize, but this year a special prize has been set up for the work "Resident Evil" by the students of our school! What does this mean? It explains "Resident Evil" Proud of the crowd, it can no longer be evaluated by ordinary first prizes, it must be the grand prize! The unique grand prize! Now, let us use warm applause to congratulate Song Weiyang and Nie Jun!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The audience applauded thunderously, and they all felt that it was so awesome, and a special prize was set up for Fudan students.

Song Weiyang had the urge to roll his eyes, although he didn't know about the Galaxy Awards, he knew that the president was bragging.

In fact, even if there is no "Resident Evil", the Galaxy Award will set up a special prize this year, which will last until Da Liu is born.

The grand prize of this year's Galaxy Award should have belonged to Wang Jinkang's "Sky Fire". A short story about a young scientist who was forced to die and his wife who was driven crazy during the decade, which is basically a sci-fi variant of scar literature, with the core idea of "scientific freedom and human nature".

Actually, it's boring, really.

If Song Weiyang is asked to evaluate "Tianhuo", he will not admit that it is science fiction at all.

With the release of the third serialization of "Resident Evil", the complexity of human nature exposed in it (Nie Jun's credit, this guy is playing freely) has crushed the old tune of "Tianhuo" ideologically.

Song Weiyang and Nie Jun, who were reluctant, were dragged and invited to the stage by Guo Taoqiang, and Li Yaolin, Zhou Zhengyu and Ding Ming took the opportunity to coax and shouted: "Old Song is awesome! Old Nie is awesome!"

"Awesome, awesome, haha!" the other students shouted with laughter.

According to the research of linguists, "bull" originated in the northeast at one time, and was created when the late Qing Dynasty broke into the eastern part of the country, and some areas in the north also have the saying of "cow". Around the late '80s, the word "" spread to the South, but it hadn't become a mantra for countless people.

These buddies of 305 may have come up with a new buzzword in Fudan today.

"Nie Jun, Song Weiyang, two great writers, let's talk a few words to the students!" Guo Tao said with a smile, he had already seen the development and growth of the Science Fiction Society.

Nie Jun didn't seem to like to be in the limelight, so he kicked the ball directly and said: "I ghostwrote, and the stories are all made up by Song Weiyang." ”

Song Weiyang said: "I only provided creativity, Nie Jun is the most powerful, and the content of the third serial has risen to the level of discussing human nature." ”

The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Guo Tao hurriedly played a round: "Haha, it seems that the two great writers are very low-key." Then let me ask a question, Song Weiyang, how did you think of zombies as sci-fi creatures?"

Song Weiyang casually said: "Inspired by Lin Zhengying's "Mr. Zombie". ”

Nie Jun said: "Lao Song has a lot of goods in his stomach, and he was eating in the cafeteria at the time, and casually said the idea of "Resident Evil". ”

"I've seen people compose poems on the spot, but I haven't met anyone who makes up stories on the spot," Guo Tao was a little crazy, and suddenly asked the students in the audience loudly, "Do you want to listen to Song Weiyang make up science fiction stories on the spot?"

"Yes!"

It's all coaxing, and it's not a big deal to watch the excitement.

"President Guo, are you pleasing me?" said Song Weiyang.

"No," Guo Tao said, "just make up a little story, it's best to be interesting." ”

Song Weiyang said: "Say it in advance, I will only tell this story for 20 minutes, and none of you will blame me at that time." ”

"Say it. Guo Tao said with a smile.

"Then I'll tell you the story of a three-body man who invaded the earth. Song Weiyang smiled brightly, he could imagine that the countless students sitting in Xianghui Hall at the moment were aroused by "The Three-Body Problem" and had no way of knowing the reaction of the follow-up plot.

It's so refreshing to dig a hole and not fill it!
