Chapter 128 Zhuang Zhongwen Literary Award (for subscription)

"Sure enough, I knew it wasn't that simple."

In the worker's apartment of Lanyang Oilfield Petroleum Machinery Factory, Wang Jingkang slammed the table and shouted.

Not far away, the son who was doing homework was startled by his father's slap.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Only then did Wang Jingkang realize that he was a little excited. He smiled and turned to his son and said, "Dad read a novel, the story is very exciting, and he was a little excited, which affected you."

The son asked curiously, "What is the story? Is it really exciting? Can you tell me about it?"

Wang Jingkang put down "The World of Science Fiction" with a smile, walked to his son, and patted his head, "You should do your homework first, and Dad will tell you after you finish your homework."

"Yeah." The son nodded heavily and continued with his homework.

Wang Jingkang returned to his desk, looked at the "Science Fiction World" on the desk, and couldn't help laughing.

The novel that asked him to pat the table just now is called "Prison No. [-]".

He had noticed this novel in the last issue, but after reading half of it, the serialization was cut off at the middle, which made people feel overwhelmed.

After get off work today, he went to buy a magazine on purpose, just to read the rest of it in a hurry.

In fact, when he saw the middle, he already expected that the protagonist should be in an unreal world, but this is obviously a clue left by the author deliberately, and it should be to make readers realize this point slowly .

So when Wang Jingkang was watching it, he always thought that the ending should not be so simple.

Sure enough, the ending was reversed, and the first illusion became a double illusion.

Some people may say that the double illusion is just one more layer.

But Wang Jingkang knew that this was not a change from one to two, but a change from one to infinity.

With this two, it will lead people to imagine towards infinity.

It's like the point on the infinitely repeating decimal. If there is an extra point, it means that there are infinite number of numbers repeating the cycle, which lasts endlessly.

This is the essence of this novel.

Wang Jingkang has imagined similar scenes more than once, but these scenes are always blurred and do not form a clear picture.But this "Prison No. [-]" gave him inspiration, allowing him to fill in his own ideas completely.

He also suddenly had an urge to write science fiction novels, not necessarily science fiction novels like "Prison No. [-]".

As a senior technician with a solid foundation in science and engineering, Wang Jingkang has imagined the future and the universe more than once. These imaginations stay in his mind and come out from time to time.

And "Prison No. [-]" seems to be the key to open the magic box, to release the imagination in his mind.

……

The phone in Yudong's dormitory was installed.

When the phone was just connected, Feng Ming and the others came over to join in the fun, saying they were going to buy firecrackers to celebrate, but Yu Dong chased them away.

Yu Dong believed that if he really responded to this, Feng Ming and the others would really be able to buy firecrackers and set them off.

After getting the phone, Yu Dong himself was very happy, and it would not be so troublesome to contact others in the future.

Now that the phone is installed, what Yu Dong has to do is to tell some people who need to contact him his number.

Yu Dong called Su Tong for the first time. After talking about the phone last time, Su Tong asked Yu Dong to tell him the number immediately.

"Hello, who is it?"

The phone was connected, and Su Tong's voice came from the opposite side. Although it was a little distorted, it was still audible.

Holding the phone, Yu Dong smiled and said, "Brother, it's me, Yu Dong."

Su Tong on the opposite side also smiled, "Is the phone installed? Is it your dormitory phone or the office phone?"

"In my dormitory."

"That's convenient." Su Tong paused for a moment, and then continued: "Your phone call just happened to happen, and I just wanted to talk to you about something."

"What's the matter?" Yu Dong asked.

Su Tong said, "Come to the club sometime, this year's Zhuang Zhongwen Literary Award selection is about to start. If you want to participate in the selection, you need to fill out an application form. I have already filled out my own, and I am waiting for you Fill it out and send it together.”

"Zhuang Zhongwen Literature Award?"

"Why, you haven't heard of this award, have you? It was established in 88. The first two sessions were not well-known. The year before last was a little bit better. Now the awards are given in turn by region. Last year it was in the Northwest region, and this year it was in the East China region. You guys Both Shanghai and Suzhou are within the region."

"I have heard of it, but this award is not for works now, it is only for writers."

"It seems that I was worrying too much. You know this award quite well. The bonus is several thousand yuan. If you win the award, you will be sent to you whether you go to receive the award. Don't worry, you are free during this time Just come and fill it out when you have time. If it’s really troublesome, I can fill it out for you, anyway, there’s not too much information to fill in.”

Yu Dong said quickly, "No, no, I'll just fill it out myself."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you. It's lucky for you this time. It happened to be awarded in East China, so you caught up. And I think you are still very promising. The judges are not blind and will definitely give the award to you. you."

"Brother, if you are the judge, then I will definitely win the award."

Su Tong laughed loudly, "If I were to be a judge, I would definitely settle my award first, so how can I still want you. Okay, I won't tell you anymore. I still have some things to do here. You can fill out the form. Take it to your heart."

After Su Tong finished speaking, it didn't mean that Dong replied, the phone had already hung up.

Yu Dong smiled and continued to call other people.

In fact, there are not many that can be contacted, namely the two magazines "Science Fiction World" and "Harvest".As for the difficulty of contacting his parents, Yu Dong planned to install a phone at home, and he happened to be going back in June, so he took care of it by the way.

There is also Jimmy James who needs to be contacted frequently. His whereabouts are erratic. I want to call him, but I don’t know where to call him. I can only wait for him to come to me on my own initiative.

After the phone call, Yu Dong concentrated on constructing his new novel again.

Yu Dong has decided to use Bangkok as the beginning of the story.

Bangkok was the second place to build a wall. When other places were still at war, their royal family saw other countries building walls and decided to follow suit. They wanted to build a fully enclosed wall to separate Bangkok from all other places.

For this reason, the royal family specially invited a group of experts to help, and the protagonist Lin Anguo is a technician in the team.

Halfway through the repair of the wall in Bangkok, various plant diseases broke out in the local area, and the food production decreased rapidly.

At this time, the Thai royal family asked to send biologists to help them solve the problem. M country considered that this plant disease might affect itself, and finally agreed to the request and sent a team of biologists to investigate and study.

But just as their investigation was about to come to fruition, a coup d'état occurred in Bangkok.

Such crude political lies have deceived most of the people. Many massacres broke out in the local area, and the team of biologists was almost wiped out. Only one person escaped with the data and handed it over to Lin Anguo.

After the riots, the new government turned to the multinational corporations, who reached out and quickly solved the plant disease and became their savior.

This is the story line of the first subsection.

In fact, Yu Dong has considered whether to write the plot of the massacre, and the impact of writing it may be very bad.

But in the end, Yu Dong chose to write like this. As for the follow-up, he didn't want to worry about it for the time being.

In fact, many of Yu Dong's novels are inspired by the domineering and buckskin "A Clockwork Girl", including the political ecology in it, and the international environment.

Of course, Yu Dong did not use pov writing, but used ordinary panoramic writing to construct the whole world.
