As everyone expected, starting from this issue, the proportion of newspapers sold through retail is increasing, and Lin Han is worthy of the high royalties offered to him by Reference News.

In fact, it is not just that it has simply increased sales by nearly 700,000 copies, but more importantly, many people have noticed that this newspaper is very different from the newspapers they usually see. Not only is the price cheap, but it is also very neutral!

Reference has always been the life of "Reference News". The angle of its reporting is different from that of Global Daily or People's Daily. It looks at China from the perspective of the world, from the perspective of the Chinese, and from the perspective of the world.

Most of its articles are quoted from foreign countries, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. They are faithful to the original text when translated, and do not take it out of context in order to pursue gimmicks. They are considered a moral media!

I don’t know if I don’t read it, but I still think it’s really good at it. So people from the reference information editorial department found that there have been more readers who have booked the whole year from the post office or official website recently. This is the subsequent impact.

As the editor of the financial perspective section of "Reference News", Yan Hongwen quietly came to the office of the cultural and sports stands section and whispered to Duan Xinlun who was reading the manuscript: "Old Duan, tell me the truth, do you still have the manuscript of "Planning Country" here?"

Duan Xinlun took off his glasses and put them aside. He smiled and said, "It's not already spread in the editorial department. You can get it if you find anyone!"

"That's only a few manuscripts. I've read them all. I'll read them alone. I will never reveal them to others. I swear!" Yan Hongwen almost raised his palm and sweared.

The book "Plane Country" has only been serialized for one issue in the outside world. It is very difficult for ordinary readers to see the contents afterwards, but in the reference information editorial department, everyone is a colleague, so it is normal for them to circulate them with each other.

But after reading the content for several days, Yan Hongwen simply found the editorial department of the Cultural and Sports Stand section. He couldn't wait to see the content later!

Who knew Duan Xinlun spread his hands and said helplessly: "Then I can't help either. Lin Han sends the content for next week every weekend. If you want to see the content for next week, you have to wait for this Saturday or Sunday, so bear it!"

"You dare to pay such a high price before you write it down. I'm so brave. I thought the whole text was handed over to you." Yan Hongwen's financial perspective sector has never been so big. It's hard to imagine what the level of 50,000 thousand words is.

"What's the point? The name Lin Han alone is worth the price." Duan Xinlun was on the side. He sighed and said with emotion: "Those publishing companies and publishing houses are crazy. Lin Han's last few books were signed before they could be written, and they were not even sure about their names and contents."

Yan Hongwen was a little disappointed, and he whispered, "It's really crazy. Anyway, if you receive the following content, remember to notify me!"

"Don't worry, if I receive it here, I guess the entire editorial department will have to spread it."

This is not false at all. Many leaders even read this book, and old acquaintances in the press and publishing industry have also made excuses to reminisce about the past, in fact, it is for Lin Han's book "Planet Country"!

Although the essence of the first chapter is interesting about the graphic country, more people want to see how this novel follows.

When the first chapter of "Hippleyen", many people said that it was not good-looking, not exciting enough, and the plot was old-fashioned, but the latter became more and more exciting.

So critics cherish their feathers at this time, and no one dares to easily comment on "Planet Country". If they miss the front and are slapped in the face, they will be ruined!

...

The newspapers on the next day arrived as scheduled, but there was no specific plot in the novel, but it only told the climate and houses of the flat country, which was very serious, as if it was true.

"Dear 3D residents, like you, our compass also has four directions: southeast, west, northwest and north.

It’s just that because there is no sun and other celestial bodies, we cannot decide the back as usual. But we have our own way. With the natural laws of the plane country, there is always an attraction to the south. The hindrance caused by this attraction to the south is enough to act as a compass in most parts of our country.

Our house has no windows, because the light is the same for us, both inside and outside, day or night…”

When Lin Han wrote about this place, the narrator's identity appeared. "I" was the only person in the Plane Kingdom who learned the truth of space and theories about light from the three-dimensional world, but in the Plane Kingdom, he was ridiculed and teased by his compatriots as the craziest person!

This plot made readers shudder. They couldn't help but think of Bruno. They supported the heliocentric theory but were burned to death by the church. Isn't this the prototype of "I" in the novel?

Is exploring unknown fields and being regarded as a lunatic? Is this alluding to reality or what to do?

Originally, "Plane Country" was an English work, but it was later translated into China, so what Lin Han remembered in his mind was a standard translation.

The content he posted in the newspaper has been simply modified, which is more in line with the reading habits of Chinese people. At least no one has responded now that the chapters inside look awkward.

As the novel serialization progresses, the world of graphic countries appears little by little before readers, although it is all introductory text and there are no major adventures.

At first, Lin Han also thought about adapting "Planet Country" into a form similar to "Glerfo Travels", allowing residents of a three-dimensional country to break into the Plane Country like they broke into the Giant Country!

Unfortunately, he gave up on this idea after careful consideration. This was originally a popular science novel. If there was too much adventure content, it would be like a scattered person.

Plane countries do not allow the construction of square and triangle houses. Because squares, equilateral triangles, etc. have sharper angles, if careless tourists accidentally hit such angles, they will cause serious damage!

Nowadays, the most common ones in cities are pentagonal houses. Even in rural areas, most of them are like this. Only extremely remote and backward areas can find square houses like archaeology.

For residents of plane countries, their length or width shall not exceed 27 cm at most, and reaching 30 cm is the maximum limit.

The female residents here are straight lines.

The soldiers and workers in the lowest class are triangles with equal sides, that is, the waist is 27 cm long and the third side is only an isosceles triangle with less than 2 cm! They have very sharp and scary corners.

What interested readers the most is the class pollen of the plane country. There are equilateral triangles here, that is, the middle class, and the "I" who tells this story is a square!

Finally, the true face of Mount Lu was revealed. Readers were curious that the narrator's identity has not been there for a day or two, but it did not appear until Friday!

Have you ever seen a novel with the protagonist of the square?

If you haven’t seen it before, come and have a look at "Planet Country"!

Above the pentagon is the aristocratic class, starting from the hexagon, the rank increases and the edge count increases until they obtain the glorious title of polygons.

Finally, because there are too many sides and these sides are too small, the shape is no different from the circle. He eventually belongs to the circle, that is, the priest class, which is the highest level among all classes!

"According to the natural laws of our plane country, each boy will have one more edge than his father, and according to the rules, each generation will be one step further in terms of development and nobility. Therefore, the son of a square is a pentagon; the son of a pentagon is a hexagon, and so on."

With the arrival of the weekend, the serialization of "Picture Country" has temporarily stopped, but this did not affect people's discussion. Instead, it gave them enough time to review the previous content, thus giving them more feelings!

"Emma, ​​I'm so cute. Squares can produce pentagons. This is completely a geometric enlightenment reading!"

"Now I believe that there is really this plane country, and everything is very detailed."

"Teacher Lin, is this a science fiction novel or a popular science work? Why can't you understand it? It's not very good-looking!"

"I have a lot of ideas. If this book is finished, it will definitely be included in the must-read for middle school students."

"My teacher Lin has been a teacher for a long time, but now I've really become a teacher. I'm waiting for Mr. Lin to teach us!"

"As an old bookworm, I refused when I first saw this novel. Who cares about a virtual plane country, but after reading it, I found that it was quite good."

"Teacher Lin's novel is a stream of fresh air, which is different from those charming bitches outside!"

"Why do I feel that this isosceles triangle is a satirizing reality to upgrade to an isosceles triangle? Many farmers or workers will not necessarily let their younger generations go out of the countryside for the rest of their lives, but for this hope, they have been working hard for generations."

"It's just another classic. The only problem is that it's updated too slowly. Can you hurry up?"

"Wait! I suddenly thought of the two-way foil. Could it be that the plane country was transformed by the high-dimensional civilization with the two-way foil? In "Three-Body", I remember that the entire solar system was hit by the two-way foil, and it was reduced from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, and the people inside turned into various geometric figures?"

"Can this all be connected, or is it that way?"

"I admire the imagination above, I'm simply terrified to think about it carefully!"

...

Not only were readers actively and enthusiastically discussing the novel, but the relevant authors discussed more, especially popular science writers.

Compared with science fiction writers, most of these popular science writers work part-time. They have their own jobs, but they are either scientists or related industries.

Since the 1990s, popular science novels have gradually declined, and a large number of popular science writers have gone to the industry to make money. Writing popular science novels is useless and does not make money. Moreover, young people and students do not read this type of book anymore, and they think it is not exciting enough and is useless for exams!

However, the current environment for popular science publishing is a decay under the appearance of flowers. As people gradually pay attention to the education of children, many works with the name of popular science publishing have begun to rage in the book market.

However, most of these books are just a piece of knowledge and pictures, and they are not just copied and copied, but also make mistakes.

Now when you walk into a bookstore, there are a wide range of popular science books in it, but most of them are imported. There are not many original popular science books in my own way, and these few books are basically inferior!

Foreign popular science authors are very good at starting from something in life, learning from classics, quoting classics, explaining the misunderstandings from scientific starting points, and conveying scientific knowledge and scientific principles through scientific inquiry rather than preaching.

In the writings of these people, science is no longer an obscure theory, but a scientific principle in life around everyone, so it is easy to attract readers, especially children and young people!

There are too few popular science creators today, the content is duplicated and similar, the homogeneity is quite serious, the knowledge is fragmented, the lack of systemicity, etc.

In such a bad environment, "Planet Country" was born!

Lin Han is also a member of the Science Popular Science Writers Association, and even visited the astronomical station with them. When his novel was serialized in "Reference News", the people from the Science Popular Science Writers Association thought this was another science fiction novel, so they didn't pay much attention to it.

But as the novel content gradually exposed, these talents were surprised to find that Lin Han actually wrote a popular science book!

This discovery suddenly surprised the writers of the Science Popularization Writers Association. They were worried that the popular science career was not successful and that they were in a position of no successor. As a result, Lin Han, the most influential science fiction writer among young people, crossed the border. This book "Plane Country" looks quite good.

So in the QQ group of the Science Popularization Writers Association, these old writers were all very excited. Even if they typed slowly, they started chatting happily!

"Have you ever read "Planet Country"? Lin Han is really talented, and popular science novels can be written so attractively."

"Now our original popular science books have finally ushered in new opportunities. What do you think?"

"This should be the best popular science book in recent years. With Kobayashi's name, maybe millions of books can be sold."

"In my lifetime, I might even see popular science books to win the championship again. This is really rare!"

"There are still many things that have not been written in the introduction of this book. Lin Han is a very strong writing layout ability. The later it goes, the more exciting it is. The later it will definitely be very good."

"By the way, Kobayashi is also in this group, so I might as well look for him to see what the content is going on? I'm not used to waiting for one or two thousand words every day. At that time, we published short popular science articles in the newspapers."

"@Lin Han Xiaolin, have you finished writing "Planet Country"?"
Chapter completed!
