Chapter Seventy-Six: Science Fiction Becomes Reality

Dong Chen thought he was reading a general biographical novel or a legendary story or something, but he didn't expect Harry to tell him that this was actually a science fiction novel.

But think about it, his current impression of the world's science and technology is only through observation, and the object of observation is only Black Rock City and the Boulder Tribe, and then other channels of understanding are only listening or reading books.

Once a third party intervenes, the authenticity of the news will plummet, so this leads to him not knowing where the technological limits of this world are.

He had heard of a steamship with no sails on the Imperial Capital, with two waterwheel-like things on either side of the ship, which were constantly rotating under the drive of a steam engine, and then drove the ship forward.

As we all know, the technology that can be seen by the public is never the most advanced, the most advanced technology on the earth is in the laboratory, and the most advanced technology here is in the Cult of Science and Technology.

And through some books, Dong Chen also knows that many of the technologies that have just been invented are in the Cult of Science and Technology, as long as they don't leak out, then no one in the outside world will know.

However, Dong Chen also knew that no matter how advanced the technology of the other side star was, it would definitely not be as advanced as the earth in the 21st century.

So looking at the things written in this novel, Dong Chen didn't feel strange, but felt very alien and watched with relish.

Now through Harry's introduction, he feels that becoming a science fiction author is also a good choice.

"How do you think I'm going to be a tech fiction writer?"

Dong Chen asked Harry.

"I don't have a good opinion of that," Harry didn't know what kind of novel Dong Chen would write, but that didn't prevent Harry from telling him about history.

"Historically, there have been scientific researchers from the Cult of Science and Technology who wrote scientific and technological fantasy novels, in which he dreamed of flying to the sky, and then he invented hot air balloons and really fulfilled his dream."

"If you pass the exam, you might as well try to be a scientific writer who can realistically dream of your ideals, which must be cool according to your young people's ideas."

"I do have such an idea," Dong Chen agrees with this profession very much, "It must be very rewarding to be able to turn the things in my works into reality." ”

"So, what happened to the scientific novelist who invented the hot air balloon? Did airships be invented later? ”

Harry shook his head and said, "No, it was someone else who invented the airship, and the man who invented the hot air balloon fell along with his own hot air balloon and died." ”

Dong Chen: "??? ”

Although Dong Chen felt that Harry was unreliable in the end, he still got a lot of information from Harry, and it was very useful.

It is understandable that science fiction writers have become guests of honor in the cult of science and technology, just as some science fiction writers or directors of science fiction movies on the planet have become advisers to various high-tech institutions, and the development of science and technology requires not only down-to-earth practice, but also rich imagination.

Especially when this kind of imagination is not just a fantasy, but has a lot of basis, it is very likely to be realized.

It's just that there is a certain probability of making money through this, just like Harry said, some people can make money, and even become guests of the Cult of Technology, while some people may not even be able to eat.

Dong Chen can't guarantee that what he writes will be liked by people in this world, after all, the cultural background of the earth and the other side of the planet is still very different, and those classic science fiction elements on the earth may not be welcomed here.

It is possible to borrow, but the first book, and even the second and third books, can only be regarded as temptation.

In order to prevent himself from starving to death while writing novels, Dong Chen still planned to sell a wave of "five-spice powder" and "thirteen spices" first.

Save some money first, write science fiction novels, and "difficult" research and development bikes.

As a dreamy scientific research author who can turn the technology in his novels into reality, Dong Chen feels a starfish.

In the evening, when Xia went to Dong Chen's place for dinner, Dong Chen asked Xia if she knew anything about the big hotel, but Xia said no.

Dong Chen also thought that the foodie Xia would know a lot of people from big hotels, so that he could sell a recipe for spice powder through her channel, but in the end, this was the result.

"Why? With your attitude towards food, you should be going to eat all of Blackstone, right? ”

Dong Chen asked suspiciously.

Hearing Dong Chen's question, Xia Ya said with some distress, "If you go to the imperial capital, I can introduce you to a few big hotels, but forget it in Black Rock City, I have basically never been to a big hotel, and small restaurants will definitely not sell at a good price." ”

"It's because I don't have money that I limit the level of restaurants I can go to."

Well, it's true.

In that case, he couldn't count on Xia, so the next day he approached Mehya and asked him to contact a larger restaurant chamber of commerce, preferably one that had something to do with the Dragon Chamber of Commerce, and tell them that their time to expand had come.

"I need to know why."

Mehya would help Dong Chen, but he still asked why.

"I have a spice here that makes food delicious in the simplest and most convenient way." Dong Chen said directly.

"Then what are you selling them for, can't you just sell them to us directly?" Mehya gave Dong Chen advice.

"Aren't you in the business of transporting goods?" Dong Chen asked strangely.

"With such a big person, why do you still think that those who do transportation only do transportation?" Maihaya knocked on the table in front of Dong Chen and said with a smile, "I heard that you went to the assessment of the science and technology reserves, you don't understand this kind of common sense, how did you pass the test?" ”

"Okay, it's me who didn't think about it," Dong Chen touched his nose awkwardly, then looked around and said, "This place is too suitable for display, or we go to the kitchen, I will demonstrate it on the spot, and you can also call the cook to verify it on the spot." ”

"Then let's go, let's see what the seasoning you said is, I suggest the Chamber of Commerce buy it."

Mehya doesn't talk nonsense, after all, his time is actually limited.

Dong Chen also knew this, so he introduced as he walked, "Didn't I spend some time in the Horror Forest before, and I would often go out hunting and gathering with the hunting team. ”

"After I came into contact with those plants, I thought about the combination between them, and many medicinal plants can also be used as spices, according to different proportions......

What Dong Chen wants to mix is something similar to the "five-spice powder" on the earth, but it is adjusted according to the type of spices and ethnic tastes here, and the ratio has reached a balance of taste, achieving a basically universal effect, which can make the smell of food aromatic and delicious.

After listening to Dong Chen's introduction, Maihaya also tasted the food cooked by Dong Chen with some of the "delicious noodles" configured with some spices on the spot, he felt that it was indeed very convenient, but he also pointed out some of Dong Chen's mistakes at the beginning, that is, the consumer group chose the wrong one.

Big restaurants will have some good seasonings, which is also part of their strength, so Dong Chen's seasonings are not urgent for them, even if he connects Dong Chen, Dong Chen can't buy a good price.

Customers who really need this kind of convenient and easy-to-operate "delicious powder" should be the kind of relatively small store, and they should buy the finished product directly.

However, this is precisely the strength that Dong Chen does not have, and the Longxing Chamber of Commerce happens to have this ability, which can be produced and sold in large quantities.
