Amazon, Douban and other places have provided paid downloads of the electronic version, and the typesetting of the electronic version is more appropriate to mobile phones and readers, and the price is also much cheaper. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Originally, the price of the paper version was 6 yuan, and the electronic version only needed 3 yuan, not to mention the saving of more than half, and the carrying was also more aspect, and you could take out your mobile phone to read it with a little spare time.
Among the overseas Chinese and international students who are overseas, a considerable number of them like Lin Han's science fiction novels very much, and this love is not only for the content, but also for the results!
Sometimes when you come to a new environment, cultural clashes are inevitable, and many things change, but Lin Han is a writer who is liked by both Chinese and foreign readers, and they can have common topics and hobbies.
Almost all of the overseas parties are not bad for money, and after they get used to the price level in Europe and the United States, they look at domestic consumption, which is simply not too cheap!
If you download one magazine in the U.S., you can download several copies in China, so they're willing to spend money, and they don't subscribe to Fantasy Age all the time anyway, they just buy one occasionally.
What can you do with three bucks?
A bottle of mineral water costs two yuan, three yuan is just enough to buy a bottle of Coca-Cola, not enough to buy a Red Bull pulse or something!
Due to the time difference, the New Year's bell has not yet rang in Europe and the United States, but they can't wait to log in to their Amazon accounts around the world to download the long-awaited magazine.
It's time for international students to go on vacation, but due to airfares or other reasons, some people don't go back to their home countries, but stay near the school or go out together!
Fang Jie asked a friend to go to the bar at night, but at this time, he took the time to buy the first issue of the electronic version of "Fantasy Age".
"Hi, Fang. What are you looking at, we were just asking you, what are you going to do later?"
A blonde woman with a nose stud on her nose asked, her English full of exotic accents.
"Didn't we say let's go clubbing together tonight!" Fang Jie's eyes were reluctant to take his eyes off the screen of his mobile phone, and he sat on the back seat of the car.
The Chinese guy in the passenger seat joked: "Elena wants to ask you if you have any plans!"
Fang Jie is tall, usually conscious of fitness, and plays basketball quite well, so he is very popular, not a traditional nerd image.
After this guy heard the hint, he finally couldn't help but glance at Yelena, but unfortunately this slightly punk woman was not his cup of tea, "I'm with you tonight, do you want to leave me?"
Yelena is not a beauty in the traditional sense, she was a little surprised after hearing Fang Jie's words, but she still leaned over to him, "What is the content on the phone, it makes you watch it non-stop, can you tell us?"
"I'm reading the new book written by Lin Han, you've all seen "The Matrix", that's the work he directed!"
The handsome white guy who was driving excitedly honked the horn, and he exaggeratedly said, "Of course I have seen it! The movie is very cool, I have watched it several times, Trinity is very sexy! Dude, do you know anything new?"
It's not the first time Fang Jie has heard others praise "The Matrix", but every time he hears it, he has a sense of pride from the bottom of his heart, "Do you know that there is a sequel to "The Matrix"? That movie is said to be released next summer!"
"That's great news, and I hope that after 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 to learn it?"
Fang Jie shook his head, he had studied all the way, and his understanding of kung fu was only from movies and television, and he didn't know where to learn it at all.
The car drove smoothly all the way forward, reggae music began to bombard from the car radio, and several people in the car also howled, but Fang Jie turned a deaf ear to these noises, and he was stunned to finish watching "Arrival"!
ā¦ā¦
On the morning of New Year's Day, Han Xuelin was awakened by a text message on his mobile phone.
It's only past eight o'clock in the morning, and it's still on holiday, and not sleeping until ten o'clock is a desecration of this holiday!
He rubbed his eyes, opened his sleepy eyes, and unlocked the phone with his fingers, only to find out that it was a message from the school science fiction association!
"Hello classmates, the latest issue of "Fantasy Times" magazine has arrived, please bring a valid ID to 108 of Tongbo Building to get it, the students of the Science Fiction Association will stay in classroom 108 until 11:30 in the morning. ā
Delivered so quickly?
Han Xuelin didn't care about sleeping, he turned over and got out of bed directly, and after washing at a speed of 100 meters, he grabbed his mobile phone wallet and bicycle key and rushed out of the bedroom door!
The cold wind blew on the palms of his hands, and Han Xuelin kicked hard with his feet, and the distance that originally took five or six minutes to reach was only about three minutes.
At this time, it is the final review period, even if there is a three-day holiday on New Year's Day, there are still many people in the empty classroom who are occupying seats for review.
He found Room 108, only to find that it was the busiest place, and many people were already waiting with their school bags.
The students of the Science Fiction Association were checking the list one by one, and after confirming that it was this person, they handed them a magazine, and the thick stack of magazines next to it looked spectacular!
Queuing all the way, after Han Xuelin used his student meal card to prove his identity, he took the magazine to the classroom next to him, and he planned to read it directly here.
There are not a few people who have the same idea as him, and there are basically one or two people in each row in the 109 classroom, and everyone consciously doesn't want to be next to others!
Han Xuelin put down his schoolbag, he couldn't wait to open the fantasy era, find the front of "Arrival", and then read it carefully.
The beginning of the novel is very simple, the heroine comes back from a date with her husband, and the child has not yet been born, but Han Xuelin has been used to third-person novels before, and now at first glance I feel a little uncomfortable when I see the heroine using a mixture of first person and second person.
"What's so weird about this timeline?"
Could it be that the heroine was reborn, and she knows so clearly about the future?
Han Xuelin has too many questions in his heart, and this novel seems to have a lot of fog.
Fortunately, when he saw the back, he finally understood from the separator symbol, it turned out that the novel was unfolded with two main lines, one was in the past tense, which was written to recall the heroine's experience of studying and learning the seven-limbed barrel language with her husband and others, and the other was in the future tense, which was written about the heroine's memories of her child's growth process!
The future tense here is still memory!
Because the heroine has the ability to predict the future under the influence of learning the language of the seven-limbed bucket, now Lin Han is letting the heroine use the tone of memory and the future tense to describe, and it was a few years ago when she saw the future picture!
The sci-fi atmosphere at the front of the novel is not strong, and Han Xuelin only knew that the heroine was studying linguistics, but through the dialogue between the army colonel and the heroine, he noticed that there might be aliens.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Han changed his words, twelve alien spaceships suddenly appeared all over the world, according to the tradition of science fiction, so that at a glance, it was clear that aliens were coming to do something!
China chose to negotiate with aliens, and the United States and Russia decided to use force head-on, so the U.S. Pacific Fleet and Navy SEALs gathered in Los Angeles Harbor to confront giant alien spacecraft.
The situation looks very tense, and the slightest mistake can set off a space war.
Of course, if the plot really goes this way, then "Arrival" is just an ordinary science fiction novel, and it is not worth Lin Han's time to deliberately describe, this kind of work catches a lot!
Han Xuelin knew that Lin Han always took the unusual path, so he was full of expectations to see how this science fiction master would deal with the follow-up plot.
Sure enough, this time the aliens are different from other bewitching sluts, they are simply a clear stream among the aliens!
They don't blow up the Great Wall, they don't destroy the White House, they don't deal with Lady Liberty and Big Ben in London, they don't communicate with the earthlings, and the spaceships hang quietly in mid-air.
The whole earth is in a panic, whether it is war or peace, it has to squeak, it is so quiet and terrifying!
It's not the same thing to wait, and the Chinese government is starting to gradually set up a special task force to figure out what the aliens do.
The heroine Qiao Yu was naturally invited as a leader in linguistics, and there are other members of this team, one of whom is the male protagonist who is a physics professor!
When Han Xuelin saw this, he couldn't help but be interested, in fact, this was probably the first time that Lin Han described in detail how humans entered the alien spaceship, and the novels he had written before were all in one word, very simple.
After entering the spaceship, the heroine wants to communicate with the aliens with seven limbs, but unfortunately no matter what she says, these aliens are indifferent, and although the sound they make is recorded by the instrument, they don't know what it means.
In these places, the study of linguistics is eye-catching, and it turns out that the spectrogram looks like this, and there are different vibrations, each with a different meaning!
Wanting to decipher a completely unknown language is by no means just a few simple words, Qiao Yu and her team members have been studying repeatedly for a long time to no avail.
Finally, the heroine mentions that she wants to communicate with aliens in a written way, and the written sentences are much easier to read than the dictated sentences!
In the face of human words and words, these aliens also gave their own response, a cursive semicircle like an ink painting at the top of the screen.
Obviously, these ways of communicating with aliens are a bit boring, but Han Xuelin is still rejoicing at every progress of the heroine's team, and he is looking forward to the day when humans can truly unravel the seven-limb barrel language!
