Chapter 374: Inception Frenzy (Asking for Tickets and Subscriptions)
At four o'clock in the morning Yanjing time, the whole community was quiet, the lights of the entire house were turned off, and people were immersed in sweet dreams, and no one would have thought that a shocking science fiction novel would be put on Weibo and read for free. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the overseas jet lag party and the local night owls who haven't slept accidentally refreshed Lin Han's Weibo, readers excitedly clicked on this long Weibo, and then completely fell into a carnival!
After graduating from university, Zhou Jie went to UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) for graduate school, usually his hobbies are watching movies, reading novels and clubbing.
Every international student overseas is always paying attention to domestic dynamics, considering the time difference, most of the Weibo that Zhou Jie saw at this time were updated several hours ago, after all, the entire Weibo users in China almost stopped after the early morning.
"Eh, Lin Han has released a new book!"
He couldn't help but sigh, and then sat up straight on the sofa, "Inception, the name is a bit interesting, is it to steal a person's dreams and stop him from dreaming?"
Anyway, with a lot of curiosity, Zhou Jie clicked directly to read, after all, Lin Han's novels are never ugly, this is a writer who has never written garbage novels, and he has a good reputation, although the new book is only one chapter, it has already begun to appear!
At the beginning of "Inception", he was a little foggy, but fortunately, Lin Han also explained the time relationship between the lines, and he could figure it out after a little thought.
It's just that Zhou Jie is very confused, why has the appearance of the protagonist Cobb many years ago not changed from Cob many years later, but Saito has changed from middle age to old age?
Since this is a novel, the passage of time can be set off by the changes in the actors' makeup in the movie, and in the text, it can only be achieved through detailed physical descriptions. Fortunately, Lin Han at this time is no longer the original him, after the training of so many novels, his writing has risen several notches, so he portrayed his respective characters in a few strokes, which made Zhou Jie feel very convinced.
The dialogue between the protagonist Cobb and the target character Saito made Zhou Jie slightly curious, there must be some story between the two, so he slowly continued to read with a happy mood.
At this time, the actor's assistant Arthur also appeared, and the two discussed the matter of the dream with Saito, and through their conversation, Zhou Jie finally understood what the dream is!
It's not about pulling out other people's dreams, but sneaking into other people's dreams to steal relevant thoughts and materials!
Zhou Jie took a deep breath, he has seen a lot of novels and movies about the genre of theft, such as Eleven Arhats, Twelve Arhats or Stealing the Day, but stealing things in dreams is really fresh.
He vaguely felt that things would not be so simple, and his fingers slowly slid downward, if it was really going so smoothly, it would not be Lin Han's novel!
Sure enough, the entire Japanese banquet scene shook, as if there had been an earthquake, and Cobb and Arthur knew that their actions might have been recognized.
The content of the novel shifts with Arthur's phrase "What's going on up there?" from a Japanese banquet hall to a dirty bathroom, from a romantic night to day.
Cobb sat in his chair with his eyes closed, and fell asleep, the end of the chair flush with the edge of the tub. Another sweaty man, Nash, appeared on the scene, the roar of a huge explosion piercing the room, and the city was in chaos, and the streets were filled with rioters.
Zhou Jie thought that this was the reality, because Cobb and Arthur each closed their eyes and connected a box, and Saito was also lying on the bed asleep, and the tube connected the three of them, as if this was the tool to realize the dream of theft!
As he continues reading, however, the scene shifts from the bathroom to the inside of a high-speed train carriage, where another Japanese man looks at the thin tube on Nash's wrist connected to three other people: Cobb, Arthur, and Saito, all four of whom seem to be asleep with their eyes closed.
"I'll go, are you dreaming in front? Dream stealing and dreaming, how many layers are there?" Zhou Jie couldn't wait to see the content behind, but there was an unfinished one to be continued, which made him annoyed.
It's obviously only a few thousand words, but he can't stop it, which makes it clear that the protagonist Cobb and his party are stealing Saito's dreams, layer after layer of dreams are interlocking, comparable to the most brain-burning movie in Hollywood!
Zhou Jie rubbed his temples, he felt that he was a little sloppy the first time, and decided to look at it again from the beginning to check if there was anything missing, maybe some clues were hidden in the text.
The novel "Inception" only took a few thousand words to firmly attract his eyes, this idea is amazing, he bought the book!
It's obviously the most lonely time for users.,But under this Weibo.Blog, quite a lot of people have gathered to discuss the plot.,Everyone has questions.,Want to know the content behind.。
……
A few hours later, the early morning sun drove the night away, Chen Jiaxuan took her mobile phone into the toilet, and within a few minutes, she heard her roaring voice, "Lin Han, you didn't sleep in the middle of the night and actually went to Weibo to post a new book!"
As a top best-selling author, the writing and release of any book by Lin Han is the top priority, but this time it was posted on Weibo so rashly, which is not just exposed in advance.
Lin Han originally just took a nap, but after he heard Chen Jiaxuan's voice, he sat up from the bed, "I plan to serialize this book on Weibo, and post it while writing it, and see what the readers say." ”
"Is it really good for you to do this? This is just the first chapter, you used to write it and you had to revise it many times to be sure, so if there is a bug or something you don't like, how do you modify the previous content?"
"Don't worry, it's a first draft that comes out online, and when the book is published, it's time to revise it. The People's Congress Publishing House asked you to help me figure it out, so let's let this book accumulate popularity on the Internet. ”
Chen Jiaxuan handed the mobile phone to Lin Han, "That's it, you've only been posting for a few hours, and this Weibo has been topped in the top ten of the popular Weibo list. ”
Lin Han took it and took a look, and found that the number of comments under his long Weibo at this time exceeded 80,000, the number of forwards was 120,000, and the number of likes was 340,000, which was only a few hours!
Office workers and student parties who take the bus and subway all turn on their mobile phones at eight or nine o'clock in the morning to browse the content they didn't read last night, and the news of Lin Han's new book on Weibo for the first time naturally attracted their attention, and this is not an ordinary name, it is just to throw out the first chapter, of course, it can cause a sensation.
For Lin Han's readers, this day is extremely happy, not only knowing the name of the new book, but even knowing the content of the new book, but one chapter can not meet their needs at all, and they are desperately urging to update!
Lin Han logged in to his account and found that the mobile client was stuck at this time, and the number of various message reminders had become 999, and the original number of 12 million fans had skyrocketed in a few hours, marching towards 15 million, which may be reached before noon.
The most attractive thing about a science fiction novel is creativity, and a science fiction novel without creativity is mediocre, and if it is only a novel about theft, the degree of attraction is limited.
Creativity is the soul of science fiction, and creativity occupies 80% of the entire science fiction novel, which is a bit different from traditional novels that use plot to shape characters.
But putting the theft in a dream, it becomes a brilliant idea, everyone dreams, everyone has a similar experience, so to speak, empathy!
In just the first chapter, Inception erupts with extraordinary energy that drives the entire online world crazy.
"I just read the first chapter, I can't stop at all, Mr. Lin hurriedly updated the second chapter, it's best to finish the whole book directly!"
"This first chapter reveals so many clues, a dream within a dream turns out to be a dream, which one is reality?"
"I am completely impressed by Mr. Lin's brain, this kind of thinking is absolutely amazing, I have seen stealing the rest of the things, but I have never seen the dream of stealing, it is awesome and coaxing!"
"Have you seen Zhang Weijian's version of "Journey to the West"? I remember that there is a dream demon in it, who is invincible in the dream world."
"Young man, at this time, you need to interpret the dream for a week, and you can buy it home for only three yuan!
"In Greek mythology, there is a Morpheus in charge of dreams, and in ancient Roman mythology, Knox and Egyptian mythology Thrapis are the gods of dreams. I just checked the information and found that the name of the protagonist Cobb is pronounced the same as the dream pronunciation in Sanskrit, Hindi, Urdu, and Punjabi.
"Anyway, I didn't understand it, but I don't know where I didn't understand, anyway, I'm confused, waiting to see the content later. ”
"Strong urging, Mr. Lin has never disappointed us, I don't ask you to explode with 30,000 words a day like an online author, but you don't want to come to a weekly, monthly, quarterly or semi-annual update. I'm going to draw a little circle and curse you!"
"Why does the protagonist face the elderly Saito for a while, and the middle-aged Saito for a while? What kind of ghost name did Lin Han write, I can't understand it in the clouds, and I deliberately talk nonsense?"
"Is this the setting of a parallel world? one moment in a Japanese palace, one moment in a small room in a riot city, and another in a train carriage. ”
"Upstairs, don't you know it's a dream? One of them could be in the real world, and the rest are dreams. ”
No matter what everyone says, the buzz around Inception has completely picked up, and at this point there is a wave of Inception frenzy, and everyone is talking about it! )
