Chapter 796 Write you in the book!
Thinking of this, Lin Han suddenly remembered that there was a real person in "The Dao of Chaos", that is, the famous physicist Stephen Hawking. This scientist was the last person to go to the altar of truth. He asked the aliens the last question on behalf of humans.
"What is the purpose of the universe?" This question not only plagued humans, but also made aliens confused and sad, because he didn't know the answer to this question!
Since it involves real people, Lin Han has to be more cautious. Maybe he should ask for his opinions?
Hawking is known as the immortal king of physics. Although he did not win the Nobel Prize in Physics, it was basically a matter of time. He was praised as the most outstanding theoretical physicist after Einstein.
He suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is paralyzed throughout his body and cannot pronounce it. The only place in his body that can move is only two eyes and three fingers!
Although Hawking is world-renowned, he is a person with a strong entertainment spirit. He has made guest appearances in the American drama "The Big Bang Theory" many times and has also talked about the dissolution of one-way bands in science lectures. He often goes on entertainment headlines and opens Weibo, and is the most down-to-earth among scientists.
As a frequent visitor in the entertainment industry, he can often be seen in many film and television works. "The Big Bang Theory" is just one of them, including "The Simpsons", "Flying Out the Future", etc.
Eddie Redmayne, an actor who interprets Hawking's life story, won the Oscar for the Best Actor with "Theory of Everything". Hawking himself has also had many help in the movie, and the sound inside is actually Hawking's own computer soundtrack.
This scientist sitting in a wheelchair even has a talent for music. He not only sings, but also sings rock. After all, he uses a computer sound synthesizer to make a sound, pure natural electronic sound!
Although Lin Han had never had contact with Hawking, he felt that as long as he explained to Hawking, the scientist might be willing to see him raise such a heavyweight question.
Even though Lin Han didn’t know him, there was a very important hub among them, that is Penguin Publishing Group!
Most of Hawking's works are represented by Penguin Publishing Group. Among them, "George's Big Bang" written by him and his daughter became popular in mainland China due to Lin Han's previous reading of the novel on "The Reader".
Lin Han is also the most important customer of Penguin Publishing Group now. He brings a lot of benefits to the company every year, making them the most suitable as intermediaries.
In this way, the two of them have a lot of connections and a certain incense. Even though Lin Han thinks that "The Dao of Chao Wen" will not be translated into English, it is still very important to obtain the permission of the parties involved.
He looked at the time on the watch. It was five o'clock in the afternoon at Weizhou Island, and it was eight hours slower in the UK, which means that it was just nine o'clock in the morning in London!
This time couldn't be better, Lin Han called Alex directly.
...
London looked particularly gloomy, Alex opened his computer, and the first thing he did was to check his email address and see what was important inside.
As a senior editor, his annual work tasks are actually not big. He mainly needs to maintain the resources in his hands and urge writers to release new works from time to time.
However, he doesn't need to urge Lin Han at all. The entire Penguin Publishing Group can't find a few more diligent and self-conscious writers than Lin Han. But every book sells so well, and it's simply the most perfect writer!
Many colleagues are envious of Alex. They can pick up such treasures when they pick up bargains from Random House, which is definitely God's blessing.
"hello!it's-"
After Alex heard the familiar voice and words, he almost started singing along, all his fault was his wife for having been revolving around Adele's song recently!
"Hi Lin, how are you doing recently?"
Alex likes his most profitable writers very much.
Lin Han didn't make any mistakes, and he replied, "It's not bad. Today I just want to find you. Can you contact Mr. Stephen Hawking?"
Alex is still very familiar with the company's well-known customers. He said: "It should be OK. Is this related to the new book? Do you need Mr. Hawking to give you some reference?"
The sales of "The Fall of Heberian" are a bit average, and Lin Han has been busy making movies. What Alex wants most is that Lin Han quickly writes another best-selling novel around the world. Now that he realizes it is related to the new book, his enthusiasm has increased a lot.
However, Lin Han was destined to disappoint him. "I am going to write short stories in Chinese, and it is difficult to translate them into English, so don't be too happy. Can you give me Hawking's email account? I plan to write an email to him, after all, communication is not very convenient."
"Wait a moment, I'll look in the system."
...
Email is actually not a big secret in the industry, and Lin Han got it quickly.
He did not carry a computer when he traveled, but his mobile phone is still very powerful now, and there is no obstacle to sending and receiving emails, and it is a function that comes with it.
"Dear Mr. Hawking, hello, I am a science fiction writer. I am now creating a short story. I want to write you into the book, so that you can play an important role, and hope to be allowed..."
Later, Lin Han briefly explained the role of the character Hawking in the story, and then took his own name, waiting for Hawking's answer.
Lin Han's day was quite fulfilling. He went from Europe to Weizhou Island, visited the crew and finalized his next novel, and now he even went to communicate with Hawking!
In the UK, Hawking, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was checking his email using a new communication system. He could switch input methods with a blink of an eye. The efficiency of facial sensors increased greatly. Chatting with others through a laptop computer has also increased the efficiency of handling things several times.
When he saw Lin Han's email, he became interested. As a scientist, he obviously knew about the most famous science fiction writers today. He had also read Lin Han's works on computers, and even published a brief book review he wrote in Nature magazine.
Now that he is going to be written into the book, he still plays such an important role, Hawking obviously has no reason to refuse!
He slowly typed and replied to the email, "My dear friend, I'm glad to see myself appear in your novel. It's my honor. I'm very looking forward to seeing your work as soon as possible. When it's finished writing, I can't wait to see it!"
When Lin Han received the email, he was very surprised by Hawking's name, "He actually called me a friend? Are we that familiar?"
Chapter completed!
