Chapter 244 Reserve Army
As time goes by, the name "Three-Body Problem" is increasingly appearing in the lives of ordinary people. Although there is no Hugo Award in this world, Lin Han's own fame is enough to make up for this.
Weibo, Moments, Space, Zhihu and other places have been flooded with the screen. This is no longer a simple book, but a real sentiment. It seems that if you have not read "The Three-Body Problem" and are just out of date.
I won’t talk about other places for the time being, but there is a lot of discussion in Zhihu alone.
There are more than 3,000 questions on this topic, of which more than 800 are answered in the essence. The number of users following this topic is as high as 70,000, and the number of views on the topic is very high.
Among these questions, there are spoilers: "What story does "The Three-Body Problem" tell?", and discusses the content of the novel: "What are the science fiction ideas that impressed you the most in "The Three-Body Problem"? And their scientific background?"
There are such things as "What are the good things about "The Three-Body Problem", "What are the easter eggs in "The Three-Body Problem", "How to evaluate Lin Han's science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem", "What are the terrifying details in "The Three-Body Problem", "What are the shortcomings of "The Three-Body Problem""
Netizens tried to discuss this science fiction novel from all aspects, and even started to analyze it from certain words and sentences, as if they were doing reading comprehension in high school Chinese.
A wonderful idea can support a complete work.
However, in "The Three-Body Problem", there are countless such ideas, each of which is exquisite and can be written with tens of thousands of words at any time.
Compared with online novels, physical books are more refined in words. Most of them are capped by hundreds of thousands of words. Novels that can write millions of words must be series, from 1 to 7 or even more.
The length of online novels is relatively long. It is normal to develop from the initial hundreds of thousands of words to the current five or six million words. If "The Three-Body Problem" is expanded, it is not a problem to write an online science fiction novel with a few million words.
...
In Rongcheng, the Science Fiction Association of the University of Electronic Science and Technology is preparing for new recruitment activities. Many people in the school do not even know that this association exists. There are only less than ten people in the science fiction association, which can be said to be in name only.
The current president Zhu Guanghua watched other clubs not far away make his booth colorful. He was very envious. The funds of the entire science fiction association were less than 50 yuan, and the books were donated by everyone. The latest ones in "Science Fiction World" magazine were a year ago.
What the entire association is doing now is to organize everyone to watch a science fiction movie in the multimedia classroom for a month and hold a reading salon. There are too few like-minded people.
Today is the first day of the Hundred Regiments Battle. Nearly 100 clubs in the entire school set up booths at the same location to recruit newcomers. Each club or association has tried its best to attract new students of this class and want to expand their team.
The music club is inviting his own town band, and the lead singer's deep voice, guitarist, keyboardist, and drummer attracted the attention of the scene.
The members of the animation club are not to be outdone. The classic osplay anime image comes out to recruit people in person, and the cute Pikachu and Doraemon are distributing leaflets.
The street dance club dances handsomely in front of its own territory. The martial arts club uses a set of masculine boxing techniques, which shocks the eye. The calligraphy club's big bull grinds ink and brushes...
Compared with these big societies, science fiction associations are much shabby, and they don’t even have extra money to print flyers or rehearse these programs.
Next to the booth is the poster of Lin Han's "Three-Body Problem". This was Zhu Guanghua contributed his collection. The English poster of "Jurassic Park" next to it was returned when another member of the association came back when he was traveling to the United States.
Compared with other clubs, the Science Fiction Association is simply a waste of time. Its original location is very remote and there are not enough publicity methods. It can only rely on freshmen with the same hobby to fall into the trap.
"President, we're starting to play?"
"Let's play, I hope we can recruit more new people this time, otherwise the club will collapse." Zhu Guanghua connected the laptop to the pocket speaker and then played the downloaded audio.
What they played was Lin Han's work "Rural Teacher" in the "Science Fiction Voice" column of China Central Radio. This was the beginning of Lin Han's science fiction career and an enlightenment book for many people's science fiction novels, with a wide audience.
Although there is a radio drama "The Wandering Earth" to choose, Zhu Guanghua still chose "Rural Teacher" to broadcast it.
Soon, Lin Han's emotional voice came out of the speaker, confused with the noisy sounds around him.
The only female member of the association asked with some concern: "President, no one likes to listen to the radio, so why not borrow a projector to play science fiction movies? I think classic science fiction movies will definitely attract some people."
"Xuanxuan, don't worry. That's our promotional method tomorrow. Try this one today. The Hundred Regiments Battle will take two days!"
"That's the case, have you chosen the movie?"
"Please choose, "Star Cowboy" and "Wormhole Adventure."
"Will anyone come now?"
Their questions were quickly answered. Lin Han's broadcast of "Rural Teachers" attracted science fiction fans scattered among the freshmen like a solicitation order.
Most of the people who like science fiction novels have read the science fiction novels written by Lin Han, especially those freshmen who have just entered the university campus from high school. They only saw the novel "Rural Teacher" at the beginning of this year, especially science students, their physics teachers, chemistry teachers, and Chinese teachers.
In fact, after the widespread dissemination of the education system, many students have watched "Rural Teachers". Most of the students have left, and only a small number of people have planted the seeds of science fiction in their hearts, and now they are just taking root and sprouting.
One, two, three, more and more people are coming over. They don’t need to read any promotional materials, they just need to see the flag of the Science Fiction Association.
As the peak of domestic science fiction novels, Lin Han's popularity may be higher than that of other science fiction writers. After listening to the radio of "Rural Teacher", these people took the initiative to write their names and paid a membership fee of 20 yuan.
"I would like to ask, what events do your science fiction association usually hold?"
Zhu Guanghua was already very excited at this time. The Science Fiction Association was about to shine in his hands. It was great that so many freshmen were interested in their clubs. "The activities were actually quite rich. This weekend we will hold a reading salon about Lin Han's new book "The Three-Body Problem". If you are interested, you can sign up to participate."
"I also bought "The Three-Body Problem", but I haven't finished reading it yet. Then I will sign up first and go back and read it now. This is my roommate. He doesn't understand science fiction novels, but he also wants to join a club. Is it OK?"
"Of course there is no problem, we especially welcome it!"
With so many readers, why don’t Lin Han worry about the sales of "The Three-Body Problem" not rising? (To be continued.)
