At the same time, this also gave hope to other types of writers, Lin Han forcibly pried open a crack, proving that as long as the quality of the novel is good, anything is possible!
No one knows what kind of struggle the judging committee went through before deciding to give this crucial award to a science fiction novel, and probably they also wanted to reform themselves.
Tong Haoran, who was sitting on Lin Han's side, looked at the trophies side by side with some envy, and he said: "Hyperion is indeed a good book, we have all read it carefully, you have told all the known and unknown stories that human beings can tell in the flow and reverse flow of time. But I can see that this should be the first part, and there are a lot of things that have not been finished. ”
Tong Haoran has won the Mao Dun Literature Award twice, and his prose has a wide influence, not only on the Chinese textbooks many times, but also in the reading comprehension of the college entrance examination, which is often his essay, and he is a cultural person in the real sense.
Lin Han nodded and explained: "In my plan, "Hyperion" is a four-part series, and I hope it can become a classic series like "The Three-Body Problem"!"
"Speaking of which, your writing has improved a lot, when I was watching "The Three-Body Problem", I thought you were only good at the magnificent description of large scenes, and the characters were a little flattened, but when I arrived in this book, I made rapid progress, each character is clear and powerful, and there is a great trend of a series of three-body problems, and you must maintain it later. ”
As a senior, Tong Haoran rarely said so much to others in one breath, he just didn't want "Hyperion" to go high and low!
"In the next three parts, I will write cautiously and will not use serialization so rashly. Teacher Tong, it's time for you to go on stage to receive the award!"
Lin Han originally wanted to say something, but the award presenter just announced the winner of the Best Prose Award, and Tong Haoran didn't know how many times he had won the award, so he could only stop.
Loud applause was given to the master of prose, and this was the reward he deserved!
……
Chen Jiaxuan didn't go to the award ceremony to join in the fun, she was curled up on the sofa in the villa at this time, and she hugged a Ahri pillow on her chest, she took it for granted that Lin Han could win so many awards.
Even she was a little dissatisfied, thinking that the remaining best novella and best short story should also be, Chen Jiaxuan thought that Lin Han was the best existence, how could the four awards be enough!
"This videographer is too, why don't you give him a few more shots!"
If these words were heard by other writers, they might vomit blood, Lin Han's face appeared most frequently at the entire awards ceremony, which even Lin Han's die-hard fans couldn't deny.
The previous award is a recognition of Lin Han's popularity, and the latter best novel is a recognition of his work, and the importance is of course inconsistent!
When "Hyperion" was first serialized on Weibo, each story attracted a large number of fans, and later these stories were even more exciting when they were combined into a single novel.
So after the news of its award spread on the Internet, there was an endless stream of netizens who joined the congratulatory army, this is a classic work that they have seen born with their own eyes, and there has never been such a novel experience before!
In fact, the reputation of "Hyperion" can be said to be very good, with hundreds of professional book reviews, and countless readers' own book reviews, and now it has more than 120,000 reviews on the Douban reading page, and the score is as high as 9.4, only a few literary classics are ranked in front of it.
Chen Jiaxuan didn't want to admit it, she just liked to watch other people's Kwa Linhan, so when the awards ceremony was boring at this time, she checked the comments on the Internet and wanted to know what kind of explosive mentality his readers would have!
In the forum of the Hanlin Academy, there is a post dedicated to live streaming and discussing this writers' annual meeting, and they are all happy about Lin Han's success.
"Sure enough, "Hyperion" won the award, it was praised by so many people at the beginning, and now it finally won the heavyweight award!"
"Congratulations to Mr. Lin, the gold content of this award should be very high, and I finally took the first step!"
"That's true, Mr. Lin's previous awards are all science fiction, only this one is in the field of literature. Congratulations!"
"Bang Bang Bang, let's popularize science, this award has been awarded since the nineties, and it has never been awarded to other types of writers for more than 20 years, and Mr. Lin is the first!"
"It's amazing, it's another small record. ”
Lin Han's current small step is a big step for the entire science fiction literature, and many science fiction writers who can't go to the site to attend the annual meeting can't help but get excited at this time, and they reposted the news on Weibo one by one!
At this moment, many fans who read the book simply ran to Douban to read and commented, and everyone often forgot about it.
"I plan to finish reading it before the end of this semester, but after reading four stories, I actually feel unbearable, the first four stories have a sense of panic, the shrike bird in the mound of time is hidden behind the scenes and flashes from time to time, the final reversal is abrupt and naturally elevated, the whole book makes people feel very uneasy, this is a masterpiece, it is a masterpiece!"
"The structure is huge, the texture is heavy, and the shrike bird and the mounds of time are like lighthouses in the fog, mysterious and elusive. These six stories of Lin Han describe the shrike bird and the mounds of time from various sides, but they are not quite true. After reading the six stories, there is too much information in them, this is a magnificent and splendid work, full of poetry, worthy of a huge book, a poetic space opera!"
"Absolutely superb! Highly recommended, one of the greatest science fiction works of all time!"
"I haven't bought a physical book for a long time, but after seeing the serialization on Weibo before, I let Mr. Lin do something that other writers can't do. Fantastic book!"
"Mr. Lin is really good at writing stories, reading it is like watching a movie, six stories with different styles, the territory of the new world is gradually laid out completely, and these six stories form a bigger story, magnificent!"
These reviews have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the reputation of "Hyperion" continues to ferment.
……
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
After announcing all the awards, the writers' annual meeting finally ushered in today's highlight, that is, the announcement of the writers' rich list, the media and the audience are actually not interested in these awards, because there are quite a few works that have not been seen.
But these writers' rich lists fully satisfy everyone's curiosity, and you can see the earning power of top writers, and you can't usually see these incomes at all, so the attention of the whole network is very high!
Lin Han was sitting in a precarious position, and the writers in the audience actually knew about their own personal income, they just didn't know the income of others, except for Lin Han.
Everyone knows that Lin Han earned $72 million last year, which is a figure released by Forbes when it counted writers around the world, and this figure is obviously breathtaking!
Last year's highest income on the writer's rich list was 59 million yuan, even if the currency that Lin Han earned this year was revised to RMB, he would still be the champion.
Before the results were announced, the writers, reporters and viewers on the Internet already knew that the champion was none other than Lin Han, and the only question was how far he could get away from second place!
"Maybe everyone already knows who the winner of this year's Writers Rich List is, but we still have to announce it one by one. The specific complete list can be found on the official website of the General Administration of Press and Publication, please see the big screen. ”
Everyone focused their eyes on the screen, and saw that the first name that appeared was really "Lin Han"!
The number behind directly blinded everyone's eyes, 510 million yuan!
When did the statistical unit of the writer's rich list become 100 million yuan, and it soared directly to 500 million, this statistical result made everyone at the scene can't help but exclaim.
This is actually similar to the previous Forbes statistics, except that one uses the US dollar and the other uses the RMB as the settlement unit, so it seems that 510 million is naturally much more impactful than 72 million!
In a year, get rid of poverty and become rich, literary works can also turn over salted fish, such a golden road to get rich I don't know how many people will be confused to join the ranks of writing, as for whether they will be swept away by the big waves, it is not a problem that Lin Han should consider.
Among the 510 million yuan, there are domestic sales of books, foreign sales, and various copyright income, he not only writes novels well and a lot, but also walks in the forefront of copyright development.
Lin Han's income is like the sun, setting off the rest of the writers in a gloomy light, no one cares how much the second or third place earns, they only have Lin Han's sky-high income in their eyes!
Some good deeds added up the income of the nine people behind the writer's rich list, and found that it was not as much as Lin Han, and his income directly overwhelmed everyone, which made many people envious.
What's more, Lin Han's expected income will go further next year, and the sci-fi blockbuster adapted from his two novels will be released, and Lin Han, who directly receives box office dividends, will not be too bad!
"The Martian" has been promoted for so long, and even went to the Venice Film Festival to win two awards and came back, there is no shortage of popularity or anything, and it will be released worldwide in three days.
And "Jurassic Park" has also been promoted for the summer release, and Paramount will release the first trailer at the halftime of the Super Bowl to start the journey of burning money!
The income that these two films can bring to Lin Han is at least tens of millions of dollars, which means that he will not do anything, and he will still win the top of the writer's rich list next year!
