Two years ago, the state defined the house as a commodity, marking the arrival of the first year of real estate, and in the next 40 years, the house has become an important matter for countless people, some people have broken out, and some people have paid a heavy price for a house.

Yang Xiao still didn't realize the power of real estate, she looked at Shen Long in confusion, "House? Used to buy a house? "Will this support the award?

"Yes, let's use the money to buy some shops for rent, and then use the rent to host the award ceremony and give bonuses to the winners." Residential housing prices are nearly a hundred times worse than in later generations, and shops are even worse depending on the location, and now they may not receive a few rents a year, and by the new century, this rent will be enough to make the big guys jaw-dropping.

It is definitely enough to pay out bonuses, and the amount of bonuses will definitely make those science fiction writers very satisfied, and Shen Long is full of confidence in this; Of course, it is not that there are no investment methods that appreciate faster, but those are too troublesome, and for this situation, it is better to invest more steadily.

"During this time, you contact you in the capital first, I will go home, and then I will go to Chengdu to find you and choose a suitable store." Shen Long continued, he wanted to choose the best development in the future, the most prosperous business area, if it was placed in the capital, it would be a little too eye-catching, put it in Chengdu can be slightly better, and it is also convenient for Yang Xiao and them to manage.

Although Chengdu's future commercial development is not as good as that of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, it can also rank among the top ten in the country, and the income will definitely not be low; He is also not worried about not being able to buy a suitable shop.

Just like buying a courtyard house before, Shen Long directly gave them dollars, and now people who have a way are thinking about going abroad, some people who want dollars, as long as they let out the wind themselves, and some people are willing to give them a shop in a good location; In another twenty or thirty years, after several rounds of demolitions, it is not impossible for these shops to turn over to hundreds of millions and billions.

With such a huge asset, how much rent can you collect in a year? Just think about it, they are happy, maybe in the future, the Galaxy Award will become the highest literary award in the country.

"Yes, what are your plans regarding the establishment of the award?" Yang Xiao asked, since the money was taken out by Shen Long, then naturally she had to listen to his opinion first, of course, Yang Xiao did not plan to obey Shen Long's arrangement, and when she encountered unreasonable places, she would still fight for reason.

"I'd like to get a few more awards, but of course, it's a long-term plan, not an immediate one." Shen Long gave his own arrangement according to the history of the Galaxy Award, "There must be the best long-form, medium-length and short stories; There is also the Best Book Award. ”

"In addition, there should be an award for the best newcomer to encourage more people to join in the creation of science fiction literature; There is also the Best Art Award, which is used to recognize outstanding science fiction illustrators and designers, which can be done in the first session; Oh, by the way, and the Best Editor Award, the prosperity of science fiction literature is inseparable from excellent editors like Editor Yang, and I think editors should also be commended. ”

"These are regular awards, which can be awarded every year if nothing else, and a Lifetime Achievement Award can also be considered to recognize veterans who have made outstanding contributions to the cause of Chinese science fiction literature, such as Mr. Zheng Wenguang." Zheng Wenguang is known as the father of Chinese science fiction literature, and his "Flying to Sagittarius" opened the spring of science fiction literature.

"Oh, by the way, there's one more award that has to be created." Shen Long added, "In the award for the best popular science work, China's science fiction literature lags behind European and American countries, and popular science literature is the same, or even worse. "There's Martin Gardner in the United States, Fabre in France, and there's very little good science writer in China after Coats.

Shen Long actually has another intention, for science fiction, the Association for Science and Technology may not necessarily support it, but they will definitely support popular science literature, adding popular science literature to the Galaxy Award is equivalent to adding an insurance to the Galaxy Award, which can borrow the influence of the Association for Science and Technology to resist some risks.

Not to mention anything else, Qian Lao is the most opposed to science fiction literature, but seeing that the Galaxy Award has added an award for popular science literature, and the Association for Science and Technology has also benefited from it, presumably he will also think about it when he speaks again, right? Of course, there is no need to say these things to Yang Xiao, so as not to cause unnecessary tension.

Yang Xiao quickly wrote down Shen Long's narrative one by one, and she had no opinion on these, "You just said that you still have a long-term plan, which means that you still want to set up a new award?" ”

"When the time is right, when the influence of the Galaxy Award expands, we can also set up an award for the best imported book and the most popular foreign science fiction writer."

"Even awards for science fiction films, awards for best science fiction films, best science fiction film screenplays, and so on." Can you also give the Best Science Fiction Network Award, the Best Science Fiction Manga Award, but it's still a bit early to think about these, "This is just the first donation, if there is a need in the future, I can also make additional donations." ”

"Mr. Sun, we are very grateful that you can come up with so much money to support the cause of science fiction, and I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of science fiction workers and enthusiasts across the country." Yang Xiao got up and bowed to Shen Long solemnly, from this conversation, she could feel that Shen Long was heartfelt support for China's science fiction cause, and thoughtful, with his help, Chinese science fiction literature will definitely take many detours.

In the next few days, Yang Xiao ran around Beijing non-stop, busy with the Galaxy Award; Shen Long went home first, gave gifts to Lan Xiang, Xiaoxia, Jin Xiu, Jin Bo and others, and asked Jin Bo to help bring back the TV at home and the books for Shao'an, and he went to Chengdu.

Accompanied by Yang Xiao, and with the help of some local powerful people who wanted to go abroad, he got a shop on Chunxi Road, which was one of the top ten business districts in China in later generations, and it would never be wrong to buy a shop here.

Science fiction writers, editors and science fiction magazines are very supportive of the establishment of the Galaxy Award, and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the Writers' Association, and the Association for Science and Technology do not have too many objections, but other relevant departments still have some concerns, after all, there is still a certain amount of controversy in science fiction literature.

Yang Xiao is busy persuading everywhere, during this time, everyone has lost a lot of weight, but her spirit is exceptionally good, after all, this is her beloved career.

Although the Galaxy Award has not yet been officially determined, science fiction workers across the country are grateful to Shen Long and thank him for his contributions.

At the same time, in the United States on the other side of the ocean, there was also a group of people who mentioned Shen Long's name.
