The much-anticipated Monday has finally arrived.

After the Ba Jin Medal Ceremony, the bet between Govin and Ni Kuang caused a stir, directly hitting the G-spot of the majority of Hong Kong citizens, and everyone was talking about it, speculating who would win and who would lose, and even some gambling companies opened a handicap in private.

It's just that when everyone was waiting eagerly for the masterpieces of Govin and Ni Kuang, they found that they were shabu-shabu, and the newspapers and magazines on the market were not publishing the two of them at all.

Grandma's, it's actually a squib!

Isn't that kidding us!

Just when the broad masses of the people wanted to complain, the three most famous and best-selling newspapers in Hong Kong, "Sing Tao Daily", "Oriental Daily", and "Ming Pao", simultaneously published the official content of the bet between Govan and Ni Kuang.

The formal bet is divided into two parts: the first part is to say that everyone writes a science fiction film, and then let the general public of Hong Kong judge who writes it better; The second part is that the two sides should create their own works within a month, in any style, and then serialize them in newspapers immediately, comparing who writes more and who writes faster, of course, the quality of creation needs to be guaranteed, and this point is also judged by the general public of Hong Kong.

It turns out that these two are playing for real!

The broad masses of the people in Hong Kong were excited.

They're referees!

And when people see the bet on the contract, they are even more amazed.

If Govin wins, Ni Kuang will apologize to Ba Jin in the newspaper for his remarks. And if Ni Kuang wins, in addition to apologizing in the newspaper, Govin will have to run naked on the campus of Hong Kong Chinese University!

Ni Kuang, this is too ruthless!

Govin would have agreed to such a bet!

Govyn was so resolute!

Gee!

For a time, the vast number of Hong Kong citizens were full of emotion and discussions, and even the news hotspots that had just happened did not attract their attention.

Just two days ago, a Boeing 747-100SR of Japan Airlines Flight 123 crashed on Mt. Takamagahara near Gunma Prefecture, killing four out of 524 people, the deadliest aviation accident in the world. Newspapers such as "Sing Tao Daily", "Oriental Daily", and "Ming Pao" have made special reports on this. According to the statistics of the "Oriental Daily", this month is not the first plane crash in the world, and before the end of the month, there have been four plane crashes worldwide this month, with a total of 720 deaths.

It is a pity that the hard work of a few newspapers is of little use, except for the families of the Hong Kong passengers on the Japanese plane crash, who cares whether they live or die in Japan. Everyone's attention is focused on the gambling contract between Govin and Ni Kuang, and everyone is waiting to see this stage play that is about to kick off.

Everyone was looking forward to the early arrival of next Monday, because according to the newspaper, Govin and Ni Kuang would start their official serialization of their creations starting next Monday.

And that day has finally arrived.

For a newspaper, the size of the circulation is finally determined after rigorous and precise investigation and research, which is scientific to a certain extent.

A well-established newspaper will not arbitrarily change its circulation because the sales of one or more issues of the newspaper have skyrocketed or are unsalable. Sales skyrocketed, supporting the temporary printing; It doesn't matter if it is unsalable, the newspaper society uses various methods such as recycling and destroying, discounting or even sending it to readers for free.

It is only when the sales of the newspaper have been steadily increasing or decreasing for several months or even longer that the newspaper will be able to adjust the circulation of the newspaper.

But on Monday, Wang Shiyu, the editor-in-chief of Ming Pao, listened to the report of his subordinates and almost couldn't help but call the circulation department and ask them to quickly increase the circulation of Ming Pao.

Just after nine o'clock, today's "Ming Pao" on the market was swept away by Hong Kong citizens!

The phone number of the circulation department has also been flooded, and they are all here to subscribe to today's newspaper. Fifty thousand copies were urgently printed, but they were gone again before noon.

It's scary!

It's really unprecedented.

After calling again to ask the distribution department to print 50,000 copies, Wang Shiyu was full of emotion. With the addition of 50,000 newly printed newspapers, the sales of Ming Pao today have suddenly surpassed that of Oriental Daily, the largest seller in Hong Kong.

The scene in front of him reminded Wang Shiyu of the grand occasion when Jin Yong serialized "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in "Ming Pao".

It's really scary, and the enthusiasm for the vast number of Hong Kong citizens makes many people feel inexplicably confused.

Isn't it just the serialization of Govin and Ni Kuang, as for such an exaggeration!

When other newspapers heard about the sales of "Ming Pao" today, they were all red-eyed.

You must know that Hong Kong is different from before, and now Hong Kong people's entertainment activities are extremely rich.

Why is it that all of a sudden, everyone is rushing to read "Ming Pao"?!

It's really weird!

It is normal for many media people to be confused by the phenomenon of being told to Gowen.

Isn't this a typical marketing method of millet hunger in later generations!

First attract the attention of the people, arouse everyone's interest, and then let them wait hard, improve everyone's desire to buy, and wait for the newspaper to go on the market, it will naturally detonate the people's enthusiasm for buying.

In fact, not to mention ordinary citizens, even Gowen was a little curious about what Ni Kuang would write to fight against him.

So on Monday, Govin got up early in the morning and called the room attendant to come to today's Ming Pao, and he couldn't wait to read it.

He flipped straight to the supplement.

Not to mention that this boss Cha is really business-minded, and he is very bluffing.

I saw that the first edition of the supplement was by myself and Ni Kuang. The typography of this version is different from the past, it is divided into two parts, the left is his own "Three-Body Problem", and the right is Ni Kuang's "Electric King", which is simple and clear, direct and crisp.

It's just that why haven't all the manuscripts I sent over have been published?

Gowen looked at the end of "The Three-Body Problem" with some confusion, he clearly sent three chapters of the manuscript last Saturday, but why is only two chapters published now?

roughly swept Ni Kuang's "Electric King", which is also two chapters, but Ni Kuang's chapter has thousands more words than himself.

It seems that Boss Cha is not optimistic about his creative speed!

This is obviously worried about breaking off!

Gewen shook his head and began to look at Ni Kuang's "Electric King" seriously:

Electricity is an indispensable energy for human beings today. Human science and technology have developed rapidly, and human beings have been able to succeed since they began to know how to use electricity. If we don't know how to use electric energy, human beings have to go back to the era when there was no electric energy to use, and we must stagnate, and there can be no breakthroughs.

……

In his previous life, when he was young, Ge Wen had seen some of Ni Kuang's, and at that time it was used as a pastime, and many of the contents had long been forgotten. Especially later, when he found all kinds of inexplicable insinuations from Ni Kuang, he was even more lazy to read carefully, that is, to watch the fun.

Looking at Ni Kuang seriously, Ge Wen's mind really flashed a sense of déjà vu, just like the advertising slogan of Master Kang's instant noodles in the future, or that familiar taste.

I have to say that as popular, Ni Kuang's writing is still okay.

Let's use a few hundred words to popularize the origin of electricity in human history, giving people a feeling of not being aware of the calendar. Then use a slightly suspenseful story to attract the reader's attention, and the text is also plain and easy to understand, for fear that the reader will not understand, and specially use the means of adding notes in parentheses to explain or remind the reader.

It's just that he's looking at the reader too idiotically?

After reading Ni Kuang's book, Gewen still couldn't help but secretly compare "The Three-Body Problem" and "The Electric King" in his heart.

In terms of text, the two should be comparable, if Ni Kuang's writing is plain, then the "Three-Body Problem" that has been perfected by himself is a little simple and cold, because "The Three-Body Problem" does not need gorgeous writing at all, it is simple and smooth.

In terms of science fiction, "The Electric King" expounds the history of electricity at the beginning, and then it is a suspense story; In the first two chapters, he not only described various life scenes in the future, but also popularized nanomaterials and several laws of physics. So the sci-fi aspect is definitely strong on its own.

In terms of attraction to readers, in the first two chapters, he has thrown out the scientific organization of "scientific boundaries", and used Wang Miao's investigation of Yang Dong's death to attract readers; Ni Kuang, on the other hand, uses the story of the mysterious red-headed father to attract Wesley, and then uses Wesley to solve the case to attract readers. The appeal of the two to readers should also be half a catty.

As for the scene, uh, forget it.

To tell the truth, Ni Kuang will write an alien if he dies, and comparing "The Three-Body Problem" is simply an insult to "The Three-Body Problem".

In general, it should be his own "Three-Body Problem" that is better!

If Ni Kuangzhen is still the same routine as before, then he is really a little invincible with "The Three-Body Problem"!
