With the publication of this series of science fiction novels by Gowen, with the stunned eyes of the critics, and with the willingness of the scientific community to bow down, the original scene of the fierce criticism of science fiction suddenly disappeared from the public's face.

Although there are still criticisms of science fiction in newspapers and magazines today, most of these criticisms are scattered on various newspapers and magazines in bits and pieces.

The focus of the current discussion has shifted from the debate over the liberal arts of science fiction to which of the science fiction novels is the best and most moving.

That's it.

There are more and more discussions about Govwin's novels in the newspapers, not only those writers in the literary world have expressed their opinions in the newspapers, but readers are also enthusiastic to express their feelings, and even some critics in the critics have put aside the debate on whether the theory of literary criticism needs to be changed, and have written relevant review articles.

"My favorite work is 'Morning Story', which has shocked me like never before, and it has subverted and reinvented my values. What is the purpose of the universe? What is the purpose of life? It was under the inspiration of this ultimate inquiry that for the first time in my life, I set my own ideal, which I wanted to become a theoretical physicist and explore the supreme and beautiful truth of the universe! So when I fill in the college entrance examination this year, I will choose this major............"

"Yangcheng Evening News" deputy Liu's reading seems to be a reader in the letter anthology.

"Science fiction is not a castle in the air, and each of Gowen's science fiction novels is based on meticulous principles of various disciplines, with plain language and rich emotions that overflow. Therefore, his works always make readers sigh and sigh after reading them, and sometimes they are worried about their hearts and lungs, and they even shed some tears for him............"

Another reader of "Yangcheng Evening News", who claims to be the most senior science fiction fan, also admires Govyn's Wuxiu land.

"Govyn's science fiction is life, science fiction stories are not without true love, ordinary people's careful care of family and friendship, and scientists are fascinated in the field of research.

On weekdays, "these two kinds of people are always separated, but as long as there is such a trigger, it will immediately become a parallel line that will never intersect, and the story will jump out of life and be sublimated." Life, flesh, and feelings, if they are for the ultimate good of all mankind, can all be abandoned, "only the persistence and unswerving pursuit of the truth." ”

A reader who became fond of science fiction because of "The Heartbreaker" wrote his first impression after reading "Full Band Blocking Interference".

Govyn has created a science fiction world with distinctive Chinese characteristics with his martyrdom imagination, grand narrative, and strong cult of technology. He examines the humanities from a scientific point of view, interprets science in the form of humanities, and his works run through the deep thinking about the fate of mankind from beginning to end.

This is the official evaluation of Gewen's works by Liu Liu's "Hundred Homelands" column of Wen Wei Po. They organized a seminar on Govyn's science fiction novels, which was attended by a writer from the literary world, a neutral critic from the critical world, and a number of loyal readers of Wen Wei Po.

At this seminar, everyone carefully analyzed and discussed Gowen's articles, and conducted in-depth research from the perspectives of literary structure, artistry, and ideology. [Shrimp literature

This heated discussion was finally written in the form of a report in the latest issue of Wen Wei Po, in the transcript formed

Gowyn's science fiction always has a fatalistic feel, making it feel like he is not looking at the future, but looking back at history", which makes his novels always have an epic flavor. From "The Country Teacher" to "The Heartbreaker" to "The Chinese Sun", it is like an epic that tugs at the heartstrings of readers.

Another special feature of his novels is that in his novels, there seems to never be a real protagonist. Whether it is the "me" or He Xi of "The Heartbreaker", or Lin Yun of "All Channel Blocking", they are all actors who drive the development of the story, and the real protagonists of the story are the touching story, the grand idea and the shocking technology.

As long as readers who have read his works, they should remember: Ding Yi, Lin Yun, Zhuang Yu, the inexplicable throbbing brought to us by the actors, and those scenes in "Chaowen Dao" where scientists turn into fireballs and rise to the sky in order to seek knowledge, are deeply imprinted in our minds and resonate with us from time to time.

The newspaper was so enthusiastic about Gowen's novel that it was almost unanimously in agreement, and the scene surprised the science fiction writers and science fiction fans alike.

The sword of Damocles that once stood on everyone's head is gone?

There was something unbelievable about everyone.

But looking at the discussion of Gowen's series of science fiction novels in the newspaper, everyone's faces finally smiled lightly.

Everyone began to relax and devote themselves to this feast of reading.

Compared with the average reader, Govwin's articles are undoubtedly more attractive to science fiction fans.

They frantically collected all the newspapers and magazines that Liu Deng had Gowen's novels.

They had a lively discussion with each other about which of Gowen's science fiction novels was the best, and they each had their own opinions, but in the end they wavered in their choice in the other's rebuttals and analysis.........

And the science fiction writers are more sensible: "From these novels of Gowyn, they find a huge gap

They are inferior to Govyn in their understanding of science, inferior to Govin in their understanding of science fiction, and even inferior to Govin in their literary depiction of science fiction.

Try to catch up! The science fiction world can't be left alone

The creators of these science fiction novels began to take nourishment from Gowyn's novels

It turns out that a basic science like mathematics can also be written as science fiction.........

It seems that science fiction with realistic themes is more appealing to readers.........

How lucky to have such people in the world of science fiction

The first person to praise Govin in the open media was Comrade Yang Xiao, president and editor-in-chief of Science Literature and Art. This "Science Literature and Art" is the predecessor of the world's best-selling science fiction magazine "Science Fiction World", and Yang Xiao was the first president of Science Fiction World in the future.

After reading dozens of Gowen's science fiction novels, Yang Xiao wrote a long review of nearly 30,000 words in her magazine to analyze the artistic characteristics of Gowen's science fiction novels.

In this article, titled "The Deep Gaze Cast on the Starry Sky and the Universe: A Brief Analysis of the Artistic Characteristics of Gowen's Science Fiction Novels", Yang Xiao wrote:

Different fields of literature have different functional methods, and the key to science fiction literature is to imagine, and the imagination of science fiction is an aesthetic driving force. The charm of science fiction literature means that it is original, specific, fresh and never repeats the existing experience, thinking about what people have never thought of, thinking about what people have never thought of, so that science fiction works can be successful. In Govyn's novels, this kind of unbridled imagination emerges everywhere.

The vitality of science fiction lies in the fact that the science fiction component in the novel should become the starting point of artistic imagination, a free spirit that runs through the theme and boldly transcends it, so that its potential power in literary creation can be fully realized. It is with his unending imagination that Govin gives his works a breathtaking vitality.

Yang Xiao's voice was like a horn, which aroused a huge response in the science fiction community.

Many science fiction writers began to share their understanding and analysis of Gowen's science fiction with other writers in the newspapers, and of course they had to boast about Gowen.

And in this article, there is one person's article that is the most eye-catching, and this person is Zheng Wenguang

Zheng Wenguang, known as the "father of Chinese science fiction", collapsed on his hospital bed earlier due to the pressure of the clean-up campaign.

He couldn't write it himself, so he asked his wife to write it and dictate an article himself

More than thirty years ago, China did not have its own science fiction, and with the efforts of our generation, Chinese science fiction has finally taken off to a stumbling start. Then in the midst of the slogan "March to Science", the science fiction world became more and more prosperous. Seven or nine years later, there were dozens of copies of Liu Zu in China's science fiction period, and Ye Yonglie's "PHS Roaming the Future" sold three million copies, and even writers in the literary world were enthusiastic about such achievements.

However, the prosperity of the science fiction world is like a castle built on the beach, it is vain, and once it is affected by the outside world, it is likely to collapse, which I think a discerning person should be able to see.

We are writing science fiction, but we should be soberly aware that most of the science fiction novels before Govyn have neither science, nor fantasy, let alone literature. Even the best works like PHS Wandering the Future are, at best, plotless popular science books, nothing more than children's literature.

But is our ambition only to create post-children's literature?

A long time ago, I began to reflect on our inadequacy, I lamented the weakness of our science fiction writers' scientific awareness, the low level of human quality, and even more doubted whether we had an innate deficiency in the ability to fantasize. I have always stubbornly believed that in the contemporary Chinese literary circle, "pure literature" writers like Mr. Ba Jin have long had the strength to call out the world literary circle, but where is our Asimov? Where is our Robert Heinrhine?

And then during the days I spent in my hospital bed, I began to smell some new breaths, feel new trends, and start to hear people shouting and saying a name in my ears. I finally read the work of a man named Gowen, and then all my pessimism and doubts about the fantasy ability of the Chinese seemed to disappear in an instant.

It all started when I overheard the nurses at Jishuitan Hospital discussing a science fiction novel.

It was a piece called "The Country Teacher", and honestly, the bland title was the biggest attraction to me. And I'm always glad I didn't miss such a wonderful science fiction work.

I remember halfway through this short story, I almost wondered if I was mistaken, there was not the slightest hint of science fiction in it.

An ordinary rural teacher in the mountains who is extremely poor in the mountains has reached the last moment of liver cancer, and he uses the last embers of his weak life to teach the primary school students the last lesson, and he wants to try to give the children a little more knowledge, even if this knowledge is likely not to have a little effect on the child's future. Isn't this a remake of "Phoenix Piano"?

But I read on. Because even if it's not science fiction, the brilliant sensationalism has swept me up in the familiar situations of my childhood. Suddenly, the text appeared:

Fifty thousand light-years away from Earth, in the center of the Milky Way, an interstellar war that has lasted for 20,000 years is nearing its end. A square area gradually loomed in the space there, as if a square opening had been cut out of the background of the brilliant stars, the sides of this area were about 100,000 kilometers long, and the interior of the area was a kind of darkness darker than the surrounding space, making people feel a kind of void in the void. Out of the black squares, some realities began to emerge, all of which were of different shapes, the size of the moon, and had an eye-shattering silver color. These objects are growing more and more, and form a neat square of cubes. The silver phalanx majestically sails out of the black square, and the two form a mosaic hanging on the eternal wall of the universe, which is based on the velvet of the square of the absolute black rest, and is neatly inlaid with small silver components of pure silver light. It's like the solidification of a cosmic symphony. Gradually, the black square dissolved in the starry sky, the stars filled its place, and the silver phalanx was solemnly suspended between the stars.

The turning point behind this is absolutely unimaginable. The last futile and pathetic effort of an insignificant rural teacher is incorporated by the author Govine into a space epic that is extremely magnificent in time and space. And the significance of this teacher has also been brought into play on the scale of a vast universe, a scale that is difficult to reach in ordinary literary works.

Govyn's world, which covers all scales from the singularity to the edge of the universe, spans a long period of time from the Berlian period to the next thousand years, and the speed and breadth of his ideas have long surpassed the traditional realm of "being able to go up to the moon for nine days and catch turtles in the five oceans". In his works, the world is facing all kinds of great crises, and in all kinds of unbelievable solutions, there is a deep reflection on all kinds of practical problems.

Recently, I read his works such as "The Sun of China" and "Chaowen Dao", and then I began to believe that this person has single-handedly raised Chinese science fiction literature to a world-class level.

He is the Asimov of Chinese science fiction

He is our Robert Heinlein! (To be continued.)
