Chapter 539 How can I have non-wet shoes when I often walk by the river?(1/2)
Bob Carr explains:
"I sincerely want to repair the relationship between us. Tell me, how can you forgive me?"
"Forgiving you is God's business, and I can't let you see God, so you can't talk about forgiving you!"
"I made it very clear, I will not participate in the [Nebula Awards] again, not this time, not the next time, and never!"
"correct!"
After walking a few steps, Li Xiang turned around and said to the lost Bob Carr:
"We also have an old saying in China: Thirty years to the east of Hedong, thirty years to the west of Hexi. Don't bully young people into poverty!"
When things got to this point, Bob Carr knew that he had no room for recovery.
He randomly found a hotel outside, had a meal, and fell asleep tiredly.
At the end of the day, although he did nothing, he just waited.
But the time spent waiting made him extremely tired.
the next day.
When he was about to take a plane to leave China, his cell phone accidentally read a piece of news.
Li Xiang's Idea Entertainment established the Three-Body Science Fiction Foundation, and established China's first science fiction award in the past ten years in the name of Three-Body Problem -
Three-Body Science Fiction Award!
Every year, the foundation will allocate one million to reward science fiction authors who have made outstanding contributions in the field of Chinese science fiction.
As soon as this news comes out!
The whole network is buzzing!
Countless science fiction authors rushed to tell each other!
Maybe one million is nothing in the eyes of some people, but what about spending one million a year?
Moreover, the author's industry is highly polarized. For Li Xiang, one million is just a small amount of money.
What he wants is the influence of the Three-Body Science Fiction Award, but for many authors, one million may be money they will never earn in their lifetime!
Many authors who were originally not good at writing science fiction novels may join the field of science fiction because of this one million reward, which will also drive the prosperity of Chinese science fiction in disguise!
Below this announcement are all praises!
"What a generous move! I admire you!"
"Holy shit, I'm so tired of having a million dollars. I don't care, I'll go back and think about how to write science fiction! I want to write one too!"
"Yes, there is a one million bonus a year. There is no chance this year, but what about next year? What about the year after? If you really want to succeed, you will have something to look forward to in this life!"
"Actually, what I value more than one million is that China finally has a science fiction award!"
"Yes, this science fiction award named after the Three-Body Problem may bring a different style to our Chinese science fiction field!"
Bob Carr was heartbroken when he saw the news.
To put it simply, they no longer play with him!
When he returns home, he has to face the miserable situation of packing up and leaving. It can be said that he has been busy working for the Nebula Award for half his life, but in the end it is all in vain!
Hugo Award Jury Headquarters.
George Scissors could be described as a man who was in high spirits during happy events.
When receiving Li Xiang's submission, many people on the jury had objections, but the facts were in front of them. After one operation, within a week, the advantages and disadvantages of both parties were reversed!
The Nebula Award has become a lost dog! Everyone is shouting!
The Hugo Award once again successfully broke out of the circle with the help of Li Xiang's momentum. It not only won the support of Chinese officials, but also won the hearts of countless Chinese science fiction authors. Even such a vast science fiction market is open to the Hugo Award!
The Cultural and Entertainment Office also issued policies to support the Hugo Awards!
A series of good news completely made everyone in the Hugo Award jury so excited that they couldn't sleep at night.
Seeing how the situation has developed to this point, maybe within two or three years, if all goes well next year, the Hugo Award will replace the Nebula Award and become the most famous award in the world of science fiction!
And all this is due to Li Xiang!
Although George Sissus is not a Chinese, as a Chinese expert, he naturally knows the principle of carrying people in a sedan chair.
When he learned that Li Xiang had spent huge sums of money to establish the Three-Body Science Fiction Foundation and established a science fiction award named after the Three-Body Problem.
He immediately summoned all the judges for a meeting to discuss.
In this case, of course it was George Scissors, who said what he said.
The meeting only lasted ten minutes, and the Hugo Award jury decided to issue an announcement to congratulate Li Xiang and the Three-Body Science Fiction Foundation for their establishment.
Moreover, the Hugo Award is willing to establish friendly relations with this fledgling Trisolaris Award, which is still in its infancy, and exchange knowledge.
This is immeasurable for the growth of the Three-Body Science Fiction Awards!
This is reciprocation from George Siss!
After getting this news, Chinese science fiction authors were also very excited!
They have changed their past thoughts and now regard the Hugo Award as their lifelong goal. As for Li Xiang's Three-Body Science Fiction Award, because it is still in its infancy and is limited to the country, it has no influence in the world.
, everyone just thought Li Xiang was having fun, even with the announcement of the Hugo Award.
There are not many authors in the science fiction field who would take the Three-Body Science Fiction Award seriously.
But Liu Li knew in his heart that Li Xiang was serious this time!
After Wei Yuan received the news, he greatly appreciated Li Xiang's establishment of the Three-Body Science Fiction Foundation.
The field of Chinese science fiction is already in decline and needs support, but in this matter, the official intervention or the intervention of the National Writers Association will not help.
Because at that time all science fiction authors in China were only thinking about winning awards abroad.
But things are different now. Li Xiang is willing to re-cultivate the soil so that science fiction can thrive. This is a good thing, a good thing worthy of a congratulatory message from the Cultural and Entertainment Office.
Wei Yuan put down the document in his hand and looked at Secretary Feng and said:
"Secretary Feng, please ask the Propaganda Department to publish a few articles to congratulate the establishment of the Three-Body Science Fiction Foundation!"
Secretary Feng stood up quickly, nodded and said:
"Okay, Mr. Wei, don't worry, I'll do it right away!"
Within a few hours, netizens saw several articles appearing on the official website of the Culture and Entertainment Office.
Other official media also forwarded it one after another!
They are all promoting the Three-Body Science Fiction Foundation established by Li Xiang.
The official took the initiative to promote a newly established foundation and a newly established award.
This incident is not unprecedented, but at least it is unprecedented!
Li Xiang created another history!
Li Xiang planned this matter carefully, and in three steps he really turned the Nebula Award into a laughing stock and a lost dog.
When Bob Carr returned to the Nebula Award jury, he was greeted by a closed door, and he was rejected.
Bob Carr asked the security guard why he wouldn't let me in.
The security guard handed over some of Bob Carr's personal belongings stored at the jury and said:
"You have been removed from the Nebula Awards jury. This news has been announced on the Nebula Awards official website. The headquarters is currently selecting the new jury president. Please don't disturb them at this time. This is also the order from above!
"
Bob Carr didn't believe it and quickly took out his cell phone to take a look.
Sure enough, the judges of the jury didn't even give him a chance to wait for him to come back and explain his quibbles, and directly announced his death sentence.
no way!
At this moment, he could only pack his luggage and prepare to rush back to his hometown.
I have worked hard and dedicated my whole life to the Nebula Award, and in the end I have lost nothing!
Bob Carr got on the train that was about to return home. He turned to look at the city with a sneer on his lips.
Because he knows that he will not be lonely even if he quits his job. In a few years, he will be able to witness the loneliness of the Nebula Award with his own eyes. He will always watch and watch carefully!
The suburbs of Magic City.
In an urban village.
The police suddenly surrounded a residential building.
No fewer than twenty people were arrested.
And these people are the trolls who are adding fuel to the flames online.
The Cultural and Entertainment Office has never given up on tracing these people, and their hard work paid off, and they were actually found.
The sailors were paid to eat. When they saw that what they had done was exposed, they quickly confessed.
