What kind of chemical effects will be born when technology and science fiction merge?

Two representative figures from cutting-edge fields gathered at the Future Science and Technology Conference and used their own ideas to create sparks of inspiration. Just like smart crowdfunding, it can promote the exploration and prospects of future science and technology.

For science fiction writers, this is the time for them to open their brains and express their ideas, promote the fusion between scientific inventions and science fiction, and make some of the things in the novel come true.

Lin Han walked out of Shanghai Hongqiao Airport alone in a small suitcase. The city was particularly noisy and the subway station was like a maze. If someone had a bad sense of direction, they might get lost.

Following the mobile phone navigation to transfer to the subway, he finally arrived outside the exhibition hall of the Shanghai World Expo, where he was his destination. He had to check in at the Future Science and Technology Conference first, and then check in to the hotel under the guidance of the staff.

At this time, a signing ceremony for science fiction writers was being held outside the venue. The well-known science fiction writer Wang Jinkang kept signing his name surrounded by readers. Wang Jinkang, who has won the Galaxy Award 15 times, is already in his sixties this year, but he has not stopped creating, and almost new works are released every year.

After so many years of persistence in creating, the number of readers accumulated is naturally different, so there is a situation where the age level varies greatly at the signing party.

"Mr. Lin, please come with me. This is the driver of our conference. We will appear under the hotel at 8:30 tomorrow. Our conference will officially start at 9:00, and the Galaxy Award Ceremony will be presented at 10:00. At that time, Oriental TV and other media friends will arrive. The winner will be interviewed. Please forgive me."

After Lin Han signed in, the etiquette guided him next to an Audi A6, which seemed to be a bit too good.

I am just a new science fiction writer who has emerged, but I still don’t take it lightly by the host of the Future Science and Technology Conference. It can be seen that this has put a lot of money into it.

"Okay, thank you for the reminder. Have everyone arrived now?" Lin Han had almost no friends here. Although there were many people coming to the science fiction nebula group, it was basically incorrect.

The etiquette lady smiled and said, "As of the signings have been signed in, there are still a small number of them left. Science fiction writers have already gone in the hotel, so you can contact each other."

Lin Han nodded, and he opened the car door and sat in, asking the driver to take him to the hotel of the conference. After getting the key, he was surprised to find that everyone had a single house and didn't have to live in a standard room with others. This was probably the most gratifying thing.

After putting his luggage in, Lin Han hung his suit in the cabinet. He would wear it to the award ceremony tomorrow and try not to wrinkle it.

The environment of the room is generally very good. You can also see the view outside by opening the curtains.

No one came to disturb him. Although Li Wenyuan was here early in the morning, he must have been busy and had no time to pay attention to Lin Han. He would rather stay with readers than chat and laugh with these authors, so he could only lie in bed and play with his mobile phone.

He first sent Chen Jiaxuan a WeChat message to say that he had arrived safely, and then called up the sales and evaluation content of "I, Robot" on Douban reading.

It has been half a month since the novel was launched, and Douban Reading’s sales have exceeded 150,000 copies. The number of people participating in the rating has reached more than 4,000, and the final score is 8.9 points!

This science fiction novel with a rating of more than 99% is chosen, and many people choose a five-star rating, which accounts for the majority, but some troublemakers choose a one-star rating, thinking that this is nonsense.

Lin Han is actually a little dissatisfied with this score. According to his idea, he should get 9 points. This is a sci-fi classic that is famous at home and abroad. Even if his own changes are inappropriate, it should not be a one-star one.

Many people start evaluating the book without even buying it, which is very unpleasant. If you haven’t read it, you will have no say, so this also arouses the indignation of science fiction readers.

A good novel is not treated as it shouldn't be. These people don't know where they came out, but they all have one-star reviews like newly created accounts.

Depressedly, Lin Han hammered the pillow next to him with his hand and opened Amazon's website. Compared with the Chinese version, although the sales volume of the English version is small, the increase is amazing.

Often, sales growth is about 120% or 145% per day. It only increases by one or two thousand downloads a day, but the continuous increase is heart-warming.

Now the cumulative sales have exceeded 10,000. As a novel that has not been promoted at all, "I, Robot" has successfully established a reputation in the hearts of European and American science fiction readers, and more and more places have begun to talk about this novel.

Just as he was browsing the English comments below, he heard a bang knock on the door.

"Who?"

Lin Han was very confused. Who would look for him at this time? He was almost isolated in the science fiction author circle. Although others envied, they were more jealous.

"Is it convenient now for the editors of "Science Fiction World" Wang Yifan and Chen Chuhe?"

"It's convenient, why is it inconvenient?" Lin Han opened the door and made an invitation gesture, "Please come in, let's sit down and talk."

This is probably what netizens look like when they meet, and they are slightly embarrassed.

Wang Yifan and Chen Chuhe came here to see the science fiction upstart they had discovered with their own eyes. They sat on the sofa and smiled and said, "Although I have seen your photos on the Internet, I still feel a little surprised."

Lin Han shrugged and replied shamelessly: "What surprised me? I am younger and more handsome than other writers?"

"You can say that. When I first read "Rural Teacher", I thought it was written by a middle-aged man. This was a huge surprise. I wish you could win the Galaxy Award tomorrow." Chen Chuhe came to build a relationship. Because he strongly recommended Lin Han, he has now occupied an advantage in the competition of deputy editor-in-chief.

In fact, the editor also has factional struggles. Lin Han's debut work appeared from the hands of Chen Chuhe and his apprentice. This is their direct lineage, so these two people came to visit Lin Han in particular.

From the rise of "Rural Teacher" to the popularity of "I, Robot" on the market, Lin Han is like a piece of polished jade, constantly shining.

As long as he establishes a good relationship with Lin Han and keeps his new works published on "Science Fiction World", even if Chen Chuhe makes a profit, this is his performance and resources.

"All everyone in your editorial department came here for this conference?" Lin Han asked curiously. He didn't understand these things.

Wang Yifan looked like a college student. He was holding a copy of "I, Robot" in his hand, and then said, "The Galaxy Award is hosted by our magazine, so it is used as an employee benefit and let everyone come to Shanghai for business trips."

"It seems that your magazine has good performance and good employee benefits."

Chen Chuhe was not too modest, "It's better than before. It's all up to your "Rural Teacher" to break the sales of our 11th magazine to 1.7 million copies, and then the first chapter of "I, Robot" led the 12th magazine to 1.5 million copies, which made our average sales successfully exceed one million mark in 2016. In 2017, we are already the best-selling magazine, and the advertising fee has doubled, so the operating effect is very good. This is all your credit."

"Don't praise me anymore. That magazine is not only my articles, but also the content of others. Originally, there were a lot of readers of "Science Fiction World". I just acted as a catalyst."
