In fact, "Inception" is just a Chinese translation, the original name of the movie was "Inception", and this time Lin Han is just a restoration. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The original meaning of this word is initial, elementary, and in the movie, it means to grab, take, literally to-get-in-and-take, linked to the storyline of the novel, enter the subconscious of the target, and then steal the idea. The protagonist Cobb enters the lost realm of dreams in order to find the final answer, which is the most basic of dreams!

The name Laying the Foundation should be a little more subtle, and "Inception" is more straightforward and easy to accept. There is no superiority or inferiority in this, but it has made Chinese and foreign readers explode.

"Why do you want to change the name, the name "Inception" is very good, this is a name based on the connotation of the whole story, and the themes of the whole novel are those three, theft, dreams, and space!"

"I think it's good, "Foundation" sounds very good, anyway, this is the English version, you can translate an Inception English for me?"

"Don't listen to their shouting, this name is very appropriate, support Lin Handa, who asked me not to watch the English version!"

"It's not a big deal for you to watch the excitement, you can call the English version of the name whatever you want, why do you have to translate it word by word, this is good for Xindaya!"

"Hahaha, I just translated those four words with Google, you can see what the literal translation of Inception is in the past, dream-snatching-dimension!

"If I really want to call it that name, I'm a little worried that I won't be able to sell it overseas. ”

Domestic readers are divided into several factions, some people think that the words "Inception" should be respected, should not be translated randomly; some people think that such a concise title is very good, and there is a certain meaning; of course, the most is that it is not about the party, anyway, they read the Chinese version, and how to translate the English version.

But in the eyes of overseas readers, the name is much more intimate, giving people a sense of high science fiction!

"Lin Jun's book title is very interesting, I look forward to Lin Jun coming to Tokyo to sign it!"

"'The Foundation' sounds grandiose, and it's certainly a pretty remarkable novel!"

"Why don't you set a release time for the majestic title?"

"Lin Han can't get enough of science fiction, but what if he writes some other types of novels?"

"Oye, I've been waiting for so long to finally get Mr. Lin's new book. ”

In fact, the readers are very satisfied, don't look at their mouths constantly urging or complaining, but Lin Han's slight leakage of an English version of the title from his fingers is enough to make this group of people happy.

The enthusiasm of overseas readers is far beyond Lin Han's imagination, obviously there has not been any publicity in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, but the group of readers with a keen sense of smell basically already know the content of the story.

They can't wait to see this critically acclaimed and record-breaking novel in Chinese mainland!

……

Lin Han actually has never had the habit of delaying the draft, but the translation of "Inception" made him a little annoyed, fortunately, he watched the original English movie with Chinese subtitles, and his understanding of some of these words is quite thorough.

On this day, Li Wenyuan made a special call and asked, "I heard that you have been in retreat recently, do you have time to come out to attend a salon?"

"Come on, the writers' salons are so boring, all of them are older than you, and they can't find a common language at all. So many readers are waiting for me to translate into English, and when I go to this salon, I say that I was forced to go by you!"

"Then forget it, you can't afford to offend that group of fans. Li Wenyuan remembered the fierceness of Lin Han's fans, if Lin Han really spread the matter to Weibo, it was estimated that he would be beaten.

At the age of Li Wenyuan, who is in his thirties, he is at the peak of his creativity, and he can only be regarded as a young writer in the pure literary world. And the group of people in the writers' salon, almost all of them are fifty or sixty years old, and Lin Han, a young man in his twenties, really has nothing to talk about.

Lin Han pursed his lips, "I'm really afraid of offending people again when I go over there, you see my offending nature, it's better to go out to parties less." ”

"It seems to be true, but many people in the literary circle do not look down on you, but are jealous of you. When they are your age, they may not be as famous as you are more than a percent, let alone make so much money. "Li Wenyuan is making up for things, this is the real friend.

"We can find time to get together in private, and we can go to the summer resort to have fun in the summer. ”

"That's a good feeling, anyway, I don't have much to do every day, just accumulate materials, and then write a little when I have an idea. Watching you write so much, I feel old. By the way, I still want to ask a question, at the end of Inception, why do you write that the spinning top on the table continues to rotate?"

Speaking of the topic of writing, Lin Han immediately came to his senses, and he said proudly: "If there is no sentence, the ending will be ordinary and without strength, as if it is just completing an ordinary task." But after adding this sentence, the pattern is instantly sublimated and the reader is made to think deeply. It's like going from a work with a score of 80 to a score of 99, and it is precisely because of this extra sentence that readers will never forget the story. ”

Indeed, this is like the finishing touch, a sentence makes a classic. What exactly does the end mean?"

This is not the first time Li Wenyuan has asked Lin Han, but he has not received a reply every time. As a powerful science fiction writer, he certainly knows that this technique will arouse the reader's curiosity and discussion, and that being said, he can't help but explore it.

Lin Han walked to his balcony, the villa had just been paid and was still in the transfer or something, and the interior decoration company had just been contacted, so he had to live in this house for the time being.

The summer sun was very dazzling, he looked at the rare blue sky and white clouds, and said into the phone: "Whether it is our dreams or the reality we feel, these abstract concepts that we are passionate about are actually a subset of reality. Cobb returns to the subset of the children, who no longer care if it's a dream or reality. It's a manifesto: maybe every layer of reality is real. The reality of each of us is actually very subjective, if you think that your reality is a dream, or your dream is a reality, the most important thing is how you perceive and deal with the reality you are in now. ”

“……”

Li Wenyuan on the other end of the phone paused, his whole brain was confused, he was a typical science and engineering man, he was not interested in philosophy or anything at all, so he hurriedly retreated: "I just want to know the ending, philosophy is too profound for me, I'd better withdraw." ”

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone cleanly, for fear that Lin Han would continue to say something.

Lin Han was stunned and listened to the busy sound in the mobile phone, he didn't expect that he would be kind enough to help him explain the ending, and it would be this treatment!

There was nothing to do, and the matter of translation was not in a hurry, so Lin Han was going to go to the Yanjing Library to take a stroll and see what useful books could be borrowed over there, after all, I still don't know what to write about the new books.

The smell of books is full, rows of bookshelves are neatly arranged, and there is almost no one talking in the library except for the rustling sound of turning books and writing, and everyone is extra conscious of maintaining this quiet atmosphere!

He hadn't been to the library for a long time, and Lin Han felt that some small changes had taken place here, and the science fiction books that were originally only on one or two bookshelves had now expanded to more than a dozen bookshelves!

According to the catalogue index, it can be seen that all of his novels have been included in the library, but their places are already blank, because all of them have been borrowed.

A large number of science fiction books and science fiction movie tapes can be borrowed for free, and science fiction classics that have been known in China for a long time but cannot be obtained are also available here, and even the most popular science fiction novels can be read at any time!

These small changes are all due to Lin Han, who single-handedly promoted the influence of science fiction to the public, so that the library management department had to pay attention to it!

I don't worry about finding science fiction novels to read here, but I will worry about how to read so many good-looking science fiction novels, because many versions are directly English originals, and there are few Chinese translations.

Lin Han flipped through the science fiction novels here, but he never thought that he would actually see a small advertisement, and this small advertisement bookmark is related to himself!

This is actually a free small advertisement of the "Hanlin Academy Forum", so that people who like science fiction and Lin Han's novels can go to this forum to join them!

"When did this forum develop from the Internet to reality?" Lin Han felt particularly strange, he knew that his fans were powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

There are biologists, psychologists, lawyers, engineers, web designers, science columnists, and even students and ordinary employees, all of whom have a wide variety of professions!

He bookmarked the little ad and continued to hold it in the science fiction novel, and he walked into the science section to see if there were any new research developments recently.

As a science fiction writer, if the imagination has not been able to keep up with the current research direction, it is estimated that it will be miserable, and if the things written actually exist in reality, is it still called science fiction? It is better to call it a realistic novel!

Live to learn all the time, this is not wrong for science fiction writers, they must keep up with the trend of the times, even if Lin Han has been busy with a lot of things recently, but he still has to recharge.

At this time, the memo on his phone suddenly popped up and rang, which made him startled a lot, and he quickly put the phone into silent mode!

Lin Han looked at the reminder of the memo, "I'm going, I forgot about the Nebula Award ceremony, according to the time difference, it will start at eight o'clock tomorrow morning." I've been waiting for it for so long, and I'm hoping to win it!" )
