Chapter 262: Chinese Science Fiction Writer - He Yun!
The letter sent by the editorial department of "UFO Exploration", to be honest, He Yun was indeed quite surprised.
Because before, he never thought that they would write back to him.
At the beginning, the manuscript he wrote was just a casual work.
But now, judging from this reply, the editorial office of "UFO Exploration" not only approved, but more importantly, they even wanted to write a similar manuscript and send it to them.
"Is this okay? My "Visitors from the Sky" is at best a popular science article, how could they invite me to write again? It can't be that I am famous, right? β
As the winner of the first "Huaxia Galaxy Award", He Yun naturally has a place in the science fiction world.
But the problem is that science fiction is not just "UFO", these are two different concepts.
He didn't want to write any more popular science articles about "selling dog meat on sheep's heads".
Even if you want to write, you have to write real popular science articles, not some "flying sticks" or something.
"Forget it, let's put it for now, anyway, I still have a few manuscripts to write now, so there's no hurry." He Yun thought about it for a while, and finally decided to put it aside for a while.
After all, there have been too many such letters from him during this period of time, and if he agrees every time, he will be tired to death.
Besides, he is now a special guest writer for the columns of magazines such as "October", "Contemporary", "People's Literature", and "Furong", and he has not yet given them a letter of invitation to write a letter of invitation to these literary magazines.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
For these invitation letters, He Yun threw them all into the drawer and ignored them anymore.
As for the letter sent by the sixth sister He Xiaolian, he also read it, but he didn't plan to reply to her, because the letter that this girl wrote to him said one thing throughout.
"The tractor at home is really good, but she prefers to ride a motorcycle."
This girl really wants to go to heaven!
That's not going to work!
She had to stop the idea of comparison!
So, He Yun simply gave her a "ignore it".
And the letter sent by Li Yan, he thought it was for something, but when he looked at the content of the letter, he found that he was wrong.
She didn't mention anything at all in this letter, but only wrote about her school, which probably means that she has been under pressure to study recently, so she can't adapt for a while.
Well, he seems to have become her "bosom brother".
This couldn't help but make him cry and laugh a little.
"Forget it, let's persuade her a few words!" He Yun muttered in a low voice, then picked up the pen, wrote her a brief reply, and sent it to her the next day.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
United States, Seattle.
John is a high school student, and his biggest hobby is watching all kinds of science fiction.
Not only domestic science fiction magazines, but also some foreign works, he also likes to read.
Sometimes, he would go to bookstores to find some lesser-known writers and watch their works.
When he encounters a book he likes, he will also buy it and take it back to enjoy it slowly.
He even thought about writing a science fiction book himself.
However, in the end, for various reasons, he never implemented it.
On this day, he went to the largest bookstore near his house again.
As usual, as soon as he entered the bookstore, he went straight to the sci-fi area.
"Huh......? There seems to be a new book? Let me take a look? John let out a sudden startle, and he walked over, picked up a new book on the shelf, and examined it.
βHeοΌYunοΌ This seems to be a Chinese name? John struggled to spell the author's name.
"Science fiction written by Chinese? To see or not to see? β
For a moment, John couldn't help but hesitate.
However, when he saw the name, his eyes suddenly lit up and he decided to read it anyway.
"Moon rescue? I remember ever watching similar sci-fi? β
John frowned, muttered something in a whisper, and finally opened the book.
Little by little, time passed.
Before he knew it, John was already deeply attracted to the plot of this science fiction book.
Especially the several reversals in the book, which made him feel a little unstoppable.
Of course, what attracted him more was the theme of lunar rescue, especially the background setting of the lunar base, which couldn't help but remind him of the moon landing program in the early years of the United States.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
More than two hours later, John had seen a quarter of the way to the book, and he came to his senses.
"I didn't expect this Chinese named He and Yun to write so good science fiction? Why haven't you heard of it before? Is it a new writer? I remember that there are a few science fiction artists in Hong Kong and Taiwan, could it be one of them? β
And just when John was guessing, at this moment, a publishing house in Xiangjiang.
Editor-in-Chief's Office.
"Editor-in-Chief Zhang, I just contacted the United States, this is what you want,"
"Okay, thank you, Lao Guo, you can put it on my table, I'll see it right away."
"Okay, then editor-in-chief, I'll go out first."
Zhang Jinbao is the publisher's editor-in-chief, and he also has deep ties to the mainland.
It can be said that this publishing house has a mainland background behind it.
Just last year, a colleague in the mainland contacted him through various connections, and he had read the science fiction article and wrote it well, so he reluctantly agreed to help the English version of this article be published in the United States.
About a month ago, it was successfully published in the United States.
And today, he couldn't wait to let his people contact the United States.
"Hmm...... How so? How can there be so many? Are sales so high? You can't be mistaken, right? β
"Sales actually exceeded 100,000? ...... this? β
At this moment, Editor-in-Chief Zhang's face was full of disbelief.
The sales volume exceeded 100,000, which is extremely rare for a rookie writer and a Chinese writer.
"No, I'll have to make sure." Although Editor-in-Chief Zhang was very excited at the moment, he still decided to confirm again.
Soon, an hour passed.
He finally confirmed that the news was indeed true and that there was no moisture at all.
The most important thing is that some news media in the United States have paid attention to this matter, and a local media in Seattle even wrote about this science fiction article in detail under the headline "Chinese Science Fiction Writers".
Now, some sci-fi fans in overseas Chinese circles have also noticed the English version of this film called "Moon Rescue".
They are trying to find out where they can buy this sci-fi.
As for Xiangjiang, just a few days later, the traditional version of "Moon Rescue" also landed in major bookstores.
At this time, some publishers in Xingguo and Taiwan Island also began to move and found this publishing house one after another.
