Chapter 140: The Lucky Loser [Asking for Votes and Subscriptions]

The correct prediction rate of the Puppy Gang on the Hugo Award nomination list is too high, which has also become their arrogant capital, but instead of reining in for this reason, they have begun to canvass votes and criticize others in a more and more high-profile manner.

"That Oriental guy doesn't know how many members of the Science Fiction Society were bribed to get this nomination, and probably took all his royalties out of it for PR, poor fellow. ”

"A word is also a novel, strongly protest against this practice!"

"Who knows how he got the right to participate? I hope that the World Science Fiction Association will stipulate that only American citizens can participate in this program, and they are white American males!"

"Hahahaha, go, this Hugo Awards depends on how politically correct you are, only choosing us is politically correct!"

"We are champions, we are champions and we have to celebrate"

……

The infamous Puppy Gang is a rat poop that spoils a pot of porridge, but it also raises the profile of the Hugo Awards, and everyone wants to see how this farce ends.

In fact, except for Chinese netizens who are particularly disgusted with the Puppy Gang, the rest of the ethnic minorities also have this attitude, and many blacks and Latinos are petitioning in the White House to ban these people.

Hollywood's feminist advocates are also looking at this as an important opportunity for them to show their influence, promote women's rights, and demand equality between men and women.

In any case, this kind of white male supremacy can be thought of in the mind, but it must not be spoken. The arrogant behavior of the Puppy Gang can't even stand the American science fiction circle and mainstream society.

In an interview with USA Today, the famous black female singer Sarah Cornier said: "People like the Puppy Gang hold views on gender and race, which is already fascist, and I even think it hurts to call them Americans." ”

"It's understandable that they want to pursue legitimate interests, but they can't use canvassing as a form of online violence to spread their political views, which would affect the selection of a prestigious award." I don't think it's a good idea. O'Neill Mondeley, a staff writer for the New York Times, commented.

The most intense reaction was Brian Howard, whose novel "Battleship Master" happened to be shortlisted for Best Novel at this year's Hugo Awards.

He never expressed any extreme racist thoughts, but because the protagonist described in the novel happened to be a middle-aged white man, he was unilaterally included in the ranks of his own by the Puppy Gang.

In the canvassing list given by the Puppy Gang, this "Battleship Master" is also impressively listed, becoming a puppet.

It doesn't matter to Brian at all, he can only control himself from joining the Puppy Gang, but he can't stop the Puppy Gang from canvassing for his novel.

After the list of nominees was announced, the jealous Brian Howard was directly angry, "To all my dear fans and the World Science Fiction Association, I am deeply disturbed by being canvassed by the crazy puppy, and I don't want factors other than the quality of the work to affect the vote, I will voluntarily give up the qualification for the Hugo Award for "Battleship Master"!"

Screenshots of his emails with the organizers of the World Science Fiction Association are attached to the back of Facebook, proving that he is willing to draw a line with the Puppy Gang in such a drastic way!

This statement instantly caused a thousand waves, and the Puppy Gang was so rampant that a science fiction writer would rather give up the Hugo Award than prove his identity.

Perhaps this is the first time in the history of the Hugo Awards that after the announcement of the list of nominees, the nominees voluntarily gave up the nomination, and many people regretted it.

How difficult is it to enter the Hugo Award nomination stage, how many times can an actor be nominated for an Oscar?

Now the situation has suddenly reversed, and those right-wing science fiction writers of the Puppy Gang have encountered collective resistance from netizens, and everyone sympathizes with the weak, and these ** children are completely destroying ordinary authors.

Internet ratings have been blown up, hackers have hung up animations of dog poop in the writers' space, and people outside physical book sales outlets have held up signs and demonstrations demanding that bookstore owners remove the works of these puppy gang writers, and various mainstream and professional newspapers are attacking this phenomenon.

The outraged Puppy Gang had to temporarily retract their paws, and their Twitter was even stolen by hackers and could not be logged in, successfully provoking a confrontation between ultra-whiteism and the rest of the race.

In the past two days, there have been many violent conflicts in the United States, and social order has suddenly become tense.

……

But Lin Han had an unexpected gain at this time, his "The Martian" became a lucky loser!

The so-called lucky loser is lucky-loser, which was originally a term used in sports to indicate that a player who has been eliminated gets a chance because of the previous exit.

Previously, "Battleship Master" voluntarily gave up the Hugo Award for Best Novel nomination for various reasons, so it had to be replaced by the work that received the sixth vote in the nomination round, and the proportion of this vote must exceed 5%.

So the turning point of God appeared, and "The Martian", which was not originally nominated, staged an inspirational counterattack, and was actually shortlisted for the list at the last moment.

The results were first confirmed by the Hugo Award Committee in Lin Han's email, and then published on the Internet.

"We are very sorry to announce that "Battleship Master" has withdrawn from the Hugo Award for some reason, and now it will be replaced by "The Martian", who is the lucky loser - the sixth place in the nomination round, congratulations to Lin Han for winning two seats!"

As soon as the news of the Hugo Award was released, netizens all over the world were fried, how could Lin Han He De occupy two positions in the Hugo Award for Best Novel?

This is a goal that has not been achieved by many science fiction writers in the world, and it was actually completed by a young writer from the science fiction desert.

Lin Han also logged on to his Twitter very modestly, retweeted the message and replied: "I have always felt very scared after receiving an email from the committee today informing me of this matter. I admire Brian Howard's high-spirited behavior, and I certainly can't do it on me. I am very excited to be nominated now, but I am even more sorry that the Hugo Award has been damaged by the Puppy Gang, if the Hugo Award loses credibility from now on, then even if it is won, it can only be regarded with a normal heart. ”

At this time, the news reminded Lin Han that he had one more fan, and Brian Howard paid direct attention to him, and said: "In fact, I have read the novel "I, Robot", which is very good. I haven't read "The Martian" yet, but I think it should be an excellent novel, congratulations!" (To be continued.) )
