"I have a better idea, you don't need to write a separate manuscript for us, you can just write to the space center and hand it over to "Fantasy Age", how about that?"

Li Wenyuan is also a little cautious, if Lin Han's new book is sent to the Tiangong-2 space station with the Shenzhou 11 spacecraft, it will definitely attract a lot of attention!

The benefits of the combination of the two are obvious, and they will inevitably detonate the book market easily!

Lin Han was confused, "How do you know that I am going to write a manuscript for the space center?"

Except for the staff of the space center, that is, he told Yan Hong alone, I am afraid that Miao Hong of Galaxy Pictures may not know the news, after all, he has not had time to explain the past.

Li Wenyuan said very proudly: "Who am I, I am very well informed! It seems that this matter is true, the space center really wants you to write a new book in two weeks??"

"Yes, I think this opportunity is very good, and it is still very commemorative to make science fiction the first book to be sent to space in China. It's pretty good for me personally, and for the environment as a whole. ”

"Then you probably have figured out what to write?" Li Wenyuan asked with concern, "The time is so tight, and the requirements for quality are quite high, those officials must have other instructions!"

Lin Han smiled into the phone, "I can be regarded as having won a little right for myself, the right to creative freedom, as long as I don't write anything reactionary, it should be fine." Anyway, I've already planned to hand it over by the deadline and don't give them time to revise it. ”

"You are really treacherous!" Li Wenyuan also laughed, "You haven't told me yet, don't you agree with my previous proposal to put your new book on "Fantasy Age" to be serialized?"

Previously, in order to repay the last bit of favor in "Science Fiction World", Lin Han sent his short story "Chaowen Dao" over, and the only remaining bit of incense and friendship was also exhausted.

In May, the sales of "Science Fiction World" increased greatly because of this article, which seriously affected the magazine in which Lin Han himself was a shareholder, so he was dragged by Li Wenyuan and Tan Lin to drink alcohol and then agreed to write a book.

Now that one book can accomplish two tasks, what else is Lin Han dissatisfied with?

He quickly agreed, "What's wrong with that, when the news is announced, you can let the Fantasy Age announce." I'll communicate with the publisher myself, and when you get to the middle of the serialization, the whole book will be officially released!"

The palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and Lin Han doesn't want to favor magazines or publishing houses, so he came up with such a compromise solution.

Although Li Wenyuan did not serve as a manager within Fantasy Times Magazine, he was a big boss who controlled 80% of the shares, and he always paid attention to this aspect of things.

It is estimated that people all over the country will wonder what kind of books can be sent into space.

And to answer this question, the best and most direct way is to buy a copy of "Fantasy Age" and see for yourself!

"Seriously, have you figured out what you want to write?" Li Wenyuan is most concerned about this, his new book has been thinking about it for a long time and can't be written, and now Lin Han only has two weeks, which is really not very good.

Lin Han was already in his chest, and he replied: "After thinking about it, it must be written about space." For the time being, I want to write about the first part of the "Space Odyssey" series, "2001: A Space Odyssey"!"

Although Li Wenyuan guessed that Lin Han must have been in stock for a long time, he was still a little strange after hearing the title of the book with time, "Why is it called 2001, does this time have any special meaning?"

"I won't spoil it for the time being, I'll know when you finish reading mine. There are sequels to this series, called "2010: A Space Odyssey" and "2061: A Space Odyssey" and "3001: A Space Odyssey", which is a time series. ”

In fact, Lin Han has wanted to write this book for a long time, but he has never found a suitable opportunity, and now he is taking advantage of the requirements of the space center to launch this series.

I believe that there is official publicity, and this "Space Odyssey" series will have a wider readership in China than in the previous life!

These words completely aroused Li Wenyuan's curiosity, as a science fiction writer, he could see Lin Han's intention from the title of this book, so now he couldn't help urging and said: "Then I won't bother you, write it quickly, you must show it to me after you finish writing, I will count on it to spend the summer now!"

"Okay, okay, I'll give you a physical book after the space center confirms, maybe it's the brother or sister of the book that went to space. ”

Li Wenyuan didn't say anything more, and hung up the phone after getting so much useful information, he wanted to give Lin Han more time to prepare the new book.

……

The choice to write "2001: A Space Odyssey" is actually quite natural, and this book describes the story of Earth's civilization from the African Australopithecus millions of years ago to the journey to space.

At the beginning, Lin Han had just come into contact with science fiction, and his physics teacher was one of the earliest science fiction enthusiasts, and he recommended this unsurpassable pinnacle of the world's science fiction palace to the students during class, known as the original book of Hollywood classic movies!

However, Lin Han was still an ordinary high school student at the time, and after downloading the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey" to his computer on the weekend, he felt that it was particularly overrated, and the critics said it was extraordinarily great, but it was not seen at all earlier.

For example, in the early days of the original book, the description of Australopithecus is very rich, such as the simple and basic psychological activities of Australopithecus, the influence of mysterious stone tablets on Australopithecus, how Australopithecus took a small step towards humans, and even how Australopithecus changed their status in the food chain!

Among them, there is a relationship between the production of language and human civilization, which Lin Han found very enlightening when he watched it at the time.

But in the movie, it's just a group of apes who start out silly and then go crazy, and it's hard for people who haven't read the original book to understand what they're doing.

After all, this is a movie from the sixties and seventies of the last century, and the picture quality, sound effects, soundtrack, and even the actors' performances, special effects, and actors' accents are a bit outdated, and some of the pictures appear repeatedly, which makes people can't help but have nasty emotions!

At the beginning, after Lin Han watched that movie, he scoffed at the so-called original book and didn't dare to touch it.

It didn't change until he arrived at university, when he saw several books with similar titles in the library, ranging from 2001 and 2010 to 2061 and 3001.

Looking at these similar titles, he always thought that it was a fake book imitated by someone through a movie, and he was not interested, but one day he couldn't help but borrow them all and read them, only to find that he almost missed the classics!

Clark, the author of the "Space Odyssey" tetralogy, is a famous British science fiction artist, evaluated by the Los Angeles Times as the poet laureate of the space age, and is known as one of the three major science fiction artists of the twentieth century!

"2001: A Space Odyssey" is a work co-created by Clark and film director Stanley, which can be said to be created for the screenplay of the movie, and later became a classic in the history of science fiction films in its own right.

While Stanley is working on the film of the same name, Clark is working on the final draft!

So in the spring of 1968, the film was born a few months earlier, and many readers felt that it was too much to explain and destroy the mystery of the film, but Clark felt that the printed text should have shown more detail than the film.

Compared with the movie, Lin Han still prefers it more, which is not to say that the movie is not good, but the movie and the original two different languages, and a lot of the information contained in the text cannot be presented by the image!

It can be seen from the first part that Clark probably didn't plan to write the next three at all, and the plot is slightly different from the movie, but it doesn't affect the overall situation.

But since the later "2010: A Space Odyssey", the plot has been different from the previous one, but it is linked to the plot of the movie.

This is probably because the movie is too famous, so the author continued to write along with the movie by the way, but it is only part of the details and does not affect the overall situation of the story!

It's great with the movie, and there are also many places that are known as God's prophecies, which largely reflects the awesomeness of "Space Odyssey".

The film was released and published in 1968, before humans landed on the moon. But just a few months later, the Americans landed on the moon, and the Apollo astronauts saw the movie, and "The Blue Danube" was shown inside the spacecraft!

The space shuttle at the beginning of the movie did not exist at all, let alone a space station.

Even the voiceprint landing on the space station is not possible until decades later!

The most surprising thing was actually in 1970, when Apollo 13 suffered an accident, and the first sentence reported to the mission center was "Houston, we have a problem!"

It's almost exactly the same as the lines in it, I don't know if it's a pure coincidence, or if it's because the astronauts are inadvertently imitating it.

In 1977, the American Voyager probe applied the technology envisioned in this book, and in 2013, it officially flew out of the solar system on behalf of all mankind and headed for a new future!

When Voyager had not yet flown out of the solar system, it sent back the first images of Iapetus, which were almost exactly as described, and many scientists were taken aback by Clark's prediction!

However, if he writes these things, the outside world will definitely not say that this is a success prediction, but will feel that this is just linked to history and facts, and it has a more authentic and sense of substitution.

Many of them are like this, using plausible writing techniques to make readers unclear whether it is a fictional or true story, so as to be more immersed in the story!

……

"Because of a space odyssey, the meaning of looking up at the stars is never the same. ”

Since it is the first time that a literary work has been brought into space in China, Lin Han feels that the theme and content of space odyssey are very suitable, but there is also a big problem!

The leaders of the space center must have hoped that Lin Han's new book would be set in China, not in the context of such foreigners, which would have been labeled politically incorrect if it had been placed in the past.

But Lin Han is really a little afraid of some people's over-interpretation, obviously he doesn't mean this, but it seems to be doing reading comprehension, a serious color can analyze all kinds of different attitudes for you!

The reason for the tree's big wind is obvious, and many people are waiting to pick on Lin Han, wanting to watch him fall from the altar, and they will be even happier if they can step on it a few times.

Therefore, Lin Han writes abroad most of the time, at least tossing foreigners, so that he will not associate himself with his own people.

Many people laughed that the movie version of "2001: A Space Odyssey" was for the promotional version, and many people did not know what to do after watching the movie version, so they naturally went to buy a more detailed version to read it.

Now it is impossible for Lin Han to get the movie out for the time being, and it is good to have only one version!

In fact, the story is very simple, the mysterious black slate enlightened the civilization of human beings on Earth in prehistoric times. Three million years later, the same slate was found on the moon, and the slate immediately emitted an electromagnetic signal in the direction of Saturn.

The United States sent the spaceship "Discovery" to Saturn in an attempt to find out the truth of the matter. However, in space, the supercomputer Hal suddenly goes insane, killing three hibernating spacemen and turning Frank into a space drifter.

Only David Bowman escaped, and the surviving Bowman arrived at Saturn alone and found another, larger black slate......

The whole story was reviewed in Lin Han's heart, but Lin Han didn't start writing rashly, he began to hesitate, is his approach really good?

It's very, very pretentious, and very indecisive!

Lin Han himself felt entangled, if he really wanted the first book on the space station to be based on a foreigner, not to mention that the space center and the Central Propaganda Department would blow up, I am afraid that domestic readers and netizens would also have to fry the pot.

If it is used by people with intentions, this is likely to cause public opinion incidents, even if the mass base is as strong as that of the star Stephen Chow, it is still made into the so-called "inverted week incident" by some celebrities in the Hong Kong entertainment industry and social public opinion!

"It's an easy thing to touch. ”

Lin Han knocked on his temple, and he sighed in a low voice.

Water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat, and readers can accept that they write about foreign backgrounds, but they may not be able to accept such works on Tiangong-2 and enjoy that kind of high-standard treatment!

In fact, there are already signs now, when netizens are speculating about which book of Lin Han can be taken into space, the books with the most mentions and the highest support rate are all works with domestic backgrounds.

Now there are two paths in front of Lin Han, he decided to do a small investigation to see the reactions of netizens, after all, the content is already there, and it doesn't take too much time to change the background or not!

This time, the content of the book will be left to all netizens to choose!
