Since Gao Lao learned that there was no direct train to Jincheng, He Yun immediately changed his previous itinerary plan, and before Baling boarded the ship, he went to the local post office and sent a telegram to the people of "Science Fiction Literature and Art" magazine, informing them when he might arrive at Jincheng Bus Station.

The purpose of his doing this is nothing else, just to prevent accidents, after all, this is by boat and car on the way, and there may be delays on the trip, so it is better to inform them and let them be prepared.

However, He Yun never expected that the other party not only prepared, but also sent someone to the station to pick him up, which really flattered him.

After contacting the other party, He Yun gradually became familiar with the other party's Mandarin with a distinct Sichuan accent.

In fact, Sichuan Province is adjacent to Hunan Province, and it has been a very close relationship since ancient times, and even many people in Sichuan Province are descendants of the people of Xiang Province.

Back to the point.

He Yun followed the person who picked him up and soon came to the editorial office of "Science Fiction Literature and Art".

Here, he met the editor-in-chief Liang Dakang, who had written to him many times.

The two almost hit it off at first sight and had a good conversation.

No, at this moment, in the editor-in-chief's room, the two are chatting and chatting, and they are talking about foreign science fiction awards.

"Comrade He Yun, you mean that if we want our country's science fiction to be internationally famous, we must cultivate a large number of science fiction readers, but ....... As far as our current domestic environment is concerned, there are still great difficulties! Liang Dakang couldn't help but sigh softly and sighed.

"Editor-in-Chief Liang, I understand what you mean, you want to say that there are too few science fiction magazines in our country!" He Yun nodded and replied to Liang Dakang.

"Hmm..... To be precise, at present, the domestic magazine specializing in science fiction is our "Science Fiction Literature and Art", and compared with the sales of other mainstream magazines, the sales of our "Science Fiction Literature and Art" magazine are only a fraction of it, and sometimes, even less. ”

Speaking of this, Editor-in-Chief Liang smiled bitterly, but shook his head slightly at He Yun.

Hearing this, He Yun suddenly fell silent.

Regarding the situation mentioned by Editor-in-Chief Liang, in fact, He Yun has also felt it.

In fact, domestic science fiction has never been considered mainstream literature, even in later generations, it is because of Liu Da Gang that science fiction has a place in the domestic literary world.

But even so, science fiction is still not paid attention to by most people.

"By the way, Editor-in-Chief Liang, I don't know when my "Hou Yi Runs to the Moon" will be published?" He Yun suddenly remembered something again and asked.

"This.... It may take some time. Liang Dakang hesitated for a moment and replied.

"Oh...... Well, Editor-in-Chief Liang, in fact, I think that if you want to increase the science fiction readership base as much as possible, there is a way, maybe the effect will be very good. When He Yun said this, he deliberately paused and looked at Liang Dakang, who was sitting opposite.

"Comrade He Yun, if you have any ideas, just say it, I will definitely think about it." As soon as he heard He Yun's words, Liang Dakang's eyes lit up at this time.

"Okay, Editor-in-Chief Liang, then I'll just say, I don't know if you know about radio dramas?"

"Radio drama? Of course I know! You mean ......"

"Yes, there are a lot of students, especially college students, listening to the radio, which is a good way to go, as long as one in ten students can become loyal readers of science fiction, it will inevitably increase the ......sales of the magazine," He Yun nodded and explained to Liang Dakang.

In fact, He Yun's method is the same as the development of "fans" through TV, computers, mobile phones, short videos, etc., all through "large traffic" to gain attention, and ultimately attract and retain some of them.

"Hmm.... This is indeed a good direction to go, but it is worth trying. Hearing He Yun's words, Liang Dakang pondered for a moment and then couldn't help nodding and saying.

Then, he smiled at He Yun again, patted his forehead, and immediately said: "I forgot, there is something I have to tell you, not long ago, I have obtained the consent of the higher authorities to start translating your "Hou Yi Benyue" into the English version, however, there are some places in it, I still have to communicate with you, the original author, you see......

"Of course there is no problem with this, Editor-in-Chief Liang, I will fully cooperate." He Yun naturally had no opinion, after all, this matter was beneficial to him, and he had no reason to refuse at all.

"That's good."

In the next time, Liang Dakang chatted with He Yun for more than half an hour, until around six o'clock in the afternoon, Liang Dakang took He Yun to dinner.

Seriously, there is still an essential difference between the taste of Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine, Hunan cuisine is spicy, while Sichuan cuisine is spicy, but in general, both tastes are heavy, so He Yun still eats more fragrant this meal.

.........

If you want to say which place in the country attaches the most importance to the development of science fiction, it naturally has to be Jincheng, after all, the science fiction platform is currently published in Jincheng.

As a journal under the Sichuan Provincial Association for Science and Technology, "Science Fiction Literature and Art" magazine, like the "Mystery" magazine under the Yunnan Provincial Association for Science and Technology, is not particularly good at the moment, at least much lower than the sales of mainstream magazines.

Compared with the former, "Mystery" magazine is more inclined to popular science articles, which is still very different from the science fiction of "Science Fiction Literature and Art".

Therefore, as the main position of domestic science fiction, the "Huaxia Science Fiction Galaxy Award" has naturally received the attention of all science fiction authors and science fiction fans.

As the first "China Science Fiction Galaxy Award", from the announcement of the selection of science fiction works in the first half of the year to the official announcement of the final list of winners, it can be said that it has gone through layers of selection, and then after the final vote.

At this moment, in the compound of the Sichuan Provincial Association for Science and Technology, a small venue was already full of people.

As the winner, He Yun is naturally among them.

For him, who has attended an award ceremony once, he is fully adapted to such an occasion.

At this time, he kept smiling, talked generously, and talked eloquently with the people around him.

And after the other party learned that He Yun was the author of the two science fiction films "Hou Yi Running to the Moon" and "Dream of the Future", there was a trace of curiosity and surprise in his eyes.

After all, He Yun looked too young.

The person who whispered to He Yun is called Wu Dengkui, who is just 30 years old this year, and he is also one of the winners this time.

And just as the two were chatting, suddenly, Wu Dengkui pointed to a man in his fifties who walked in the distance and said in surprise: "He Yun, look, Professor Tong!" ”

"Professor Tong? Who is Professor Tong? He Yun was stunned for a moment, but his face was full of puzzlement.

"Have you seen Dying Light on Coral Island?" Regarding He Yun's doubts, Wu Dengkui immediately smiled slightly and said mysteriously.

"Of course I did! You mean......" He Yun nodded.

Although He Yun has not seen it in this life, but in the previous life, he happened to watch it on the Internet, this is the first science fiction movie in China, and he can't remember the plot in it, but he just remembers the name of the movie.

"That's right! Professor Tong is the author of the original film "Dead Light on Coral Island", and he is also an archaeologist who is well-known at Sichuan Provincial University. ”

As soon as he heard Wu Dengkui say this, He Yun suddenly remembered that when he chatted with Editor-in-Chief Liang yesterday, he had mentioned that this award ceremony would be attended by an extremely important science fiction master.

Now it seems that this Professor Tong must be the person that Editor-in-Chief Liang is talking about!

In fact, He Yun really guessed correctly.

As the first author of a science fiction work in China to win the "National Excellent Short and Medium Story Award", Professor Tong can be said to have a pivotal position in the domestic science fiction industry.

He is just like the big guy Liu in later generations, and his right to speak is leveraged.

However, what you may not know is that compared to his achievements in the science fiction world, historical archaeology is his major in college.

Moreover, compared with the former, he is an important archaeologist in the archaeology of Sichuan Province, especially in the archaeological civilization sites of Ba, Shu and Dian in the southwest during the pre-Qin period.

In other words, writing science fiction is just a "side job", and archaeology is his main business.

"Huh...... Why didn't Professor Tong go to the podium, he seems to be coming towards us? Just as He Yun was secretly pondering, he heard Wu Dengkui on the side suddenly exclaim.

He Yun looked up and found that, as Wu Dengkui had said, there was an old man with glasses walking towards them on their left.

Soon, the old man came to He Yun and the others.

At this time, He Yun found that behind the old man, there was still a person following.

That person was none other than Liang Dakang, the editor-in-chief of "Science Fiction Literature and Art".

"He Yun, Wu Dengkui, let me focus on introducing to you, this is Professor Tong Huaiyuan! I'm sure you've all heard of his name! ”

After Liang Dakang introduced the old man in front of him, He Yun and Wu Dengkui immediately nodded and replied with a smile: "I've heard it!" Heard! ”

"Professor Tong, this is He Yun I mentioned to you before, that is, the author of "Dream of the Future" and "Houyi Running to the Moon", and this is Wu Dengkui, a teacher at the School of Meteorology, who is just thirty this year, young and promising."

With Liang Dakang's introduction, the old man glanced at Wu Dengkui, and immediately set his eyes on the younger He Yun.

He grinned and said to He Yun: "Young man, have you read the "Moon Colony" written by Arajiang Diaosuo? ”

"Uh...... I've seen it! He Yun was stunned for a moment, then nodded back.

In fact, He Yun had not seen it, but he had heard of his name in his previous life.

This is a half-written and half-white science fiction written by a person named Huangjiang Diaosu in the late Qing Dynasty.

This science fiction can be called the first science fiction in China at that time, and the content is probably the story of a certain Hunan Province, who fled with his wife because of revenge and murder, traveled all over the world, and finally reunited with his son who landed on the moon.

"Then do you think our country will be able to go to the moon?" The old man heard He Yun's answer, but he smiled again and asked again.

Hearing this, He Yun nodded suddenly and replied, "That's nature!" ”

"Hahaha......! Not bad! I also believe that our country will be able to successfully land on the moon in the near future! ”

Speaking of this, the old man immediately laughed, and then he turned around and walked towards the rostrum, leaving He Yun, who was confused, thoughtful.

"This Professor Tong is a little interesting, it's just ...... Why is he so convinced that our country can successfully land on the moon? ”
