Chapter 245: Popular Science Essay "Visitors from Heaven"!

Speaking of UFOs, He Yun couldn't help but think of a very famous CCTV program in his mind.

That's right!

It's that god show - "Approaching Science".

He still remembers that he did an episode about "Flying Sticks" in this show.

The host said very mysteriously, it was an ancient creature and an alien flying machine, but in the end, it was found that it was just the ghost of a small flying insect under surveillance.

In fact, He Yun didn't know that the content of the popular science magazine "Flying Saucer Exploration" sponsored by Gan Science and Technology Publishing House was actually very similar to the program "Approaching Science".

Each of these articles is preceded by examples, followed by the words of such and such witnesses, expert explanations, various blurry photos, and in the end, there is only one sentence left: "Please explore".

It can be said that this popular science magazine is a lonely science.

In terms of content, almost 30 years have been the same, and the content of each issue is similar, and they are all articles that are not credible or have no direct evidence.

"Huh...... Is this still an invitation letter? Recommended by the editor-in-chief? They're all Gan magazines, so that's really possible. ”

After He Yun read the contents of the letter, he suddenly realized.

Dare is another invitation letter.

It's just that compared with the previous invitation letters, the subject matter of this invitation letter is different.

It turned out to be a popular science theme that introduces UFOs!

Seriously, it's not that he can't "make up" this kind of theme, but he thinks that this thing is a bit fake, and it's better to write science fiction than to write this.

Besides, compared with this kind of popular science article, he thinks that the popular science articles of "Mystery" magazine seem to be more reliable than this.

You must know that before, he had read the magazine "Mystery", and the articles in that magazine were not "made up" or "speculative" at all, but most of them had scientific basis.

"Forget it, I can't write about this flying saucer." He Yun shook his head slightly, but he gave up directly.

Although there is only one word difference between science fiction and popular science, the gap is very large.

For popular science articles, He Yun has always felt that such articles must have a scientific basis and must be true, but science fiction is different, it is essentially a piece.

If it is, it can be fictional.

And fiction is exactly what He Yun is good at.

However, this letter reminded me, and I don't know about the "Science Fiction Literature and Art" magazine, how about my science fiction? Has the English translation come out? ”

…………

It was also when He Yun was chattering, at this moment, Jincheng.

In the editorial department of Science Fiction Literature and Art magazine.

Liang Dakang was listening to the report of the person in front of him.

"Editor-in-chief Liang, this is the case, there is still half of the translation that has not been completed."

"And half? How can it be so slow? Editor-in-Chief Liang looked at each other, but he was a little disbelieving.

"Editor-in-Chief Liang, I can't do anything about this, we don't have enough manpower, and this kind of science fiction is difficult to translate." The other party smiled bitterly and replied.

"Alright then, hurry up, Lao Du." In the end, Liang Dakang still didn't say anything.

"Okay, I'll urge the translator when I get back."

"Hmm...... Xiangjiang Publishing House has already contacted us, right? ”

"We've already been contacted, just waiting for us to give them the translation."

…………

Silver City.

He Yun naturally didn't know about this, and he never received a reply or telegram from Liang Dakang.

He put the letter from UFO Quest in a special drawer for letters, but he didn't bother anymore.

But he didn't know that a few days later, he received two more letters.

At first, he didn't pay much attention to it, after all, he used to receive letters every day.

But when he saw that it was another letter from "UFO Exploration", he was puzzled and immediately opened the letter.

"Yo ho...... It's not endless, and you want me to write this kind of article? I don't write it. He Yun laughed angrily at the contents of the letter.

"That's really ......"

"Wait...... They won't write to me again, will they? Why don't I write them something for them? ”

After thinking about it, suddenly, an idea suddenly popped up in He Yun's mind.

"Huh...... Why don't you just send them that story? ”

At this moment, He Yun thought of another mysterious "extraterrestrial event" in "Approaching Science" in addition to the "flying stick".

That's right!

It's the story called "Visitors from Heaven".

The story is very simple, that is, in a certain village, a villager was digging in his own field, but found some white crystals, and later, the villagers found many experts in the discussion without success.

Some say it's a special hailstorm, some say it's an extraterrestrial visitor, an alien meteorite, and some say it's combustible ice.

In the end, it was discovered that this was actually caused by the compression of the excrement on the plane.

Well, there's really not much to tell in this story.

But when He Yun actually wrote it, he felt that what he wrote seemed to be a bit too fake.

Especially the paragraph explained by an aviation expert at the end, which makes people feel that it is "" at a glance.

"Forget it, just deal with it anyway, take care of him." He Yun really didn't want to receive any more letters from the other party.

If it weren't for his view of the face of the editor-in-chief Qi, I am afraid that he would not be willing to write something casually to deal with it.

After all, it took him two and a half hours to write this story and write more than 2,000 words.

"What's the name?"

"Hmm...... Forget it, let's take the theme of visitors from outside the world, anyway, it's just a casual work. ”

He Yun muttered, and casually wrote four big words "Visitors from Heaven" at the front of the manuscript paper, so that the manuscript was completed.

"It's finally done, they shouldn't bother me anymore, right?" He Yun smiled and looked at the second letter.

"The editorial department of "Selected Journals" ** sea?"

"Huh...... I see, I said, how could he send me a letter, it turned out that I won the award. ”

For the "Selected Magazine" magazine, He Yun naturally knows that this is a literary magazine under the National Writers Association.

But seriously, he doesn't have much of a cold for this magazine.

As for the reason, of course, it is due to some statements he heard from someone after he won the award.

What's more, the other party actually wanted to publish his short stories "Nanfei" and "That Man, That Mountain, That Road", but he had already agreed with the five magazines that they would be published by the five magazines, so how could he go back on his word.

"If I refuse directly, it will inevitably lead to unnecessary trouble, so why don't I simply refuse on the grounds that I agreed to those five magazines?"

"That's right! Maybe I could! ”

At this moment, He Yun muttered in a low voice, but suddenly laughed.

At this moment, he knew what he had to do.
