Lin Han's writing ability is very strong, and the deadline given to him by Tan Lin is December 24, but he almost temporarily put aside the book "The Fall of Hyperion" and turned his head to concentrate on writing "Arrival". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The 30,000 words only took him two days, and after he finished writing, he spent a few hours reviewing and reviewing to see if there was anything that needed to be revised or added.

In fact, in "The Story of Your Life", China also appears as a "responsible" power, but it is the first country to attack an alien spacecraft, which is actually a little distorted in Lin Han's opinion.

So after making the protagonist become Chinese, this bad image of attacking alien spacecraft was naturally changed to the United States, after all, they declared war everywhere, the belligerent factor is more developed, and it is reasonable to be the first country to plan to go to war!

This can only be regarded as a story created by Lin Han, after he saved the document, he added it to the attachment of the email, and then sent it directly to Tan Lin, so that the editor-in-chief Tan could see if the novel was qualified.

Not long after Tan Lin turned on the computer, he just habitually checked his mailbox, there were all kinds of emails in his work mailbox every day, and he was about to delete some advertising emails, but he saw the novel from Lin Han lying quietly at the top of the mailing list!

"Advent?"

"Why does this title feel so familiar!"

He said to himself, Tan Lin was still thinking that if Lin Han couldn't take out the article before the magazine went to the printing house, he would simply apply to divide Lin Han's previous novels into different chapters and serialize them in the magazine.

But this time, it surprised him, the time was already very tight, but Lin Han had completed it ahead of schedule!

I don't know if this is a work that has not been written and released before, or if it is the result of being ordered to be in danger and the result of an explosion of inspiration.

After Tan Lin downloaded the attachment to the desktop, he patted his thigh suddenly, and suddenly said: "No wonder I think this name is familiar, isn't there an advent faction in "The Three-Body Problem"!" Is there any connection between the two? ”

The Adventists are a faction of the Three-Body Organization in Lin Han's previous science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem", and their leader is Evans, who believes in the idea of destroying all species native to the earth.

Even this is what many extreme netizens think, they completely despair of human nature, and then begin to hate human beings, most of them are realists.

The motto of this group is a quote that Evans once said, "We don't know what an extraterrestrial civilization is like, but we know humans." ”

This should actually be regarded as a beautiful misunderstanding, there is no connection between the novel "Advent" and the Adventists, if you have to say that there is a connection, it should be a novel about aliens!

Tan Lin clicked on the downloaded document with full expectation, and he didn't rush to read it completely, but looked at the statistics in the lower left corner of word.

Ho, good guys!

This novel is 36,000 words, which can be considered a short story and can also be included in the category of novellas!

"Could it be that these 30,000 words were written by him in the last two days? That's terrible. Tan Lin made up his mind to ask Lin Han after reading this novel later.

For a person who likes to read, a good book in front of him is a great attraction, Tan Lin held his breath for a moment and devoted himself to reading the novel!

But just after reading the beginning, he had a feeling of bewilderment, Lin Han has always described the male protagonist, and occasionally there are indeed female protagonists, but this kind of writing technique with the heroine as the first person is the first time to see Lin Han use it.

According to Tan Lin's years of experience as editor, it is naturally not difficult for him to see that the "I" in "Advent" is the heroine, and "you" is the heroine's child!

This opening is particularly confusing, because Lin Han uses a lot of words such as "will" and "will", which are strictly in the future tense, and the description of the situation is very careful, as if the future is in front of us.

The story is less than 500 words, and Lin Han sketches the outline of a family with an unhurried tone, the daughter dies, and the husband and wife divorce.

So Tan Lin is even more puzzled, why there are so many future tenses at the beginning, and who is this story for?

The daughters are "about" to pass away, or does this heroine have the talent to be a prophet and can predict the mysterious future?

Fortunately, the novel didn't waste much time, and the beginning of the story officially began!

"That was a few years ago, when alien ships flew into space, and alien objects appeared on the grass. The government has almost never said anything about these matters, while the tabloids have been imaginatively furnished with thousands of strange news.

That's when I got a call that someone was coming to see me. ”

Tan Lin knows that this story called "Arrival" has finally begun!

At this time, the heroine also revealed her identity, she is a linguistics expert named Qiao Yu.

This meeting is just a conversation between Qiao Yu and the colonel and another physicist, which details the dynamics of the government departments, and they want to decipher the language of aliens!

"It's still a familiar taste, and it's still the original recipe!"

Tan Lin can see at a glance that the core of Lin Han's novel is probably in language, otherwise he would not have arranged such an identity for the heroine.

"Interesting, quite interesting, I've never read this kind of novel that tries to decipher the alien language, Lin Han is really, he can always play at such a level."

Lin Han used tens of thousands of words to outline a free and casual, indifferent and calm small world, in Qiao Yu's contact with aliens and foreseeing his daughter's life at the same time, it seems that the dividing line is quite obvious, but in fact, they are related to each other.

Contact with aliens is a feeling in the present tense, and my daughter's life is a foresight gained through learning alien languages, and a lot of "you will" and "will" constitute the future tense!

Since it is a short story, the language description cannot be too detailed, and the space is limited.

Of course, Lin Han also combined the novel "The Story of Your Life" with the movie version of "Arrival", and in the clip that just described the meeting and conversation between Qiao Yu and Colonel Zhu Tao, in addition to the tense atmosphere, there was a kind of urgency and pressure from beginning to end!

What surprised Tan Lin the most was that the male protagonist in the novel, that is, the physicist, actually proposed the traveling principle mode of light refraction, and used the minimum time theorem of Fermat's theorem to interpret the language and thinking patterns of aliens.

The male protagonist is not an accessory to the female protagonist, he also has his own contributions!

Learning a language for a long time will change your thinking mode, and Qiao Yu is in the process of studying the seven-limbed barrel language, because of the change of thinking mode, and gain the ability to predict the future.

For science fiction novels, Lin Han used Fermat's theorem to explain the difference between humans and seven-limbed bucket aliens, which is also one of the many highlights in the novel that cannot be ignored!

The so-called Fermat's law of least time, that is, the route actually taken by a beam of light is always the shortest route.

For humans, if a beam of light is to reach a certain point in the water from a certain point in the air, it will be refracted in the water, because the light travels at different speeds in the air and water.

In the novel, the physicist explains the refraction of light as follows: If the purpose of a beam of light is to choose the shortest route, how can the light choose the fastest route? Then the light must know all the routes before it sets off, and choose the one that takes the shortest!

The reason why the light changes its path is to minimize the time it takes to reach its destination!

The written language of the seven-limbed barrel is different from that of human beings, they put the content of a sentence into one word, and the addition and subtraction of the strokes of this semicircle, in which the thickness of the strokes, the arc of the strokes, and countless changes all indicate different meanings.

Before they write, they already know what they're trying to say!

After Tan Lin saw these super hard cores, his admiration for Lin Han went to the next level, not everyone can write such a shocking work!

In particular, the discussion about free will and foreseeing the future made Tan Lin nod frequently, why did the heroine know the future, but decided to continue like this and not make any changes?

This is like the actors on the stage or in the movie, they have memorized their lines with each other well before the play begins, they already know the ending, but they still have to follow the script to move towards the future that has already been decided!

The ending is beautiful, but the last sentence made Tan Lin almost squirt out!

[On those four moonlit nights, your father and I had just returned from the ball. At this time, I already knew that your father would leave me many years later, and I knew that you were going to leave me at the age of twenty-five, and then your father asked me, "Do you want a child?" ”

I smiled back in, "Yes. ”

So I pulled his arms away from me, and we held hands, walked into the room, and did. Love, be you. 】

The last four words simply contain countless contents, Tan Lin hesitated for a while, this contains the heroine's attitude towards life, but she said it so nakedly. Love come, do you delete it in the magazine or not?

"You just gave me a big problem at the end!"

Tan Lin knocked on his head, he actually liked this last sentence very much, and he was reluctant to delete it at all, so he dialed Lin Han's mobile phone, wanting to hear the author's opinion, how to deal with it better!
