Is this cartoonist mentally ill?.

Chapter 21 Cyber ​​Philosophy

Chapter 21 Cyber ​​Philosophy
Gu Qianli looked at the questions on the answer sheet. There were not many questions on it, only three questions.

After all, it is not a personal interview, but rather like a page where readers ask questions to cartoonists, with two or three questions to be answered by the corresponding cartoonists.

But this is actually a symbol of the cartoonist's popularity. The reason why Lin Qingshan got the opportunity to be interviewed in this issue is because "Edge Walker" ranked first among the four works in the Newcomer Grand Prix for the first time.

And the first question that Gu Qianli asked was——

"Teacher Qingshan, what exactly does cyberpunk mean?"

Gu Qianli knew the answer to this question.

Because she had asked Lin Qingshan before.

But other readers don't know that.

The word cyberpunk appears for the first time in this world. It is not a Chinese word, but a direct transliteration of the original English word.

Naturally, most readers are very confused. "Cyberpunk 2077: Edgewalker", everyone can understand that 2077 means that the story takes place in the future 2077, and everyone also understands the Chinese term "edgewalker".

But cyberpunk…

Everyone really doesn’t understand what this means, especially since this word is in the title of the work.

Gu Qianli looked at the second question.

"Teacher Qingshan, what is your creative concept for "Edgewalker"?"

She looked at Lin Qingshan and asked the question, as if she was asking Lin Qingshan personally.

Ayumi Ito heard this and looked at Lin Qingshan with strong interest.

To be honest, although the work "Edge Walker" has a science fiction color, it can still be seen that this work is not ordinary, and even has a strong sense of humanistic care.

In "Edge Walker", there are deep or shallow descriptions of the huge impact of the rapid development of science and technology on human society in the future, the huge wealth gap between the bottom and the upper class in capital society, and the huge changes and impact of mechanization on the human body.

This also gave Ayumi Ito a bad feeling. Why does "Edgewalker" have the flavor of... a tragedy?
This feeling is even more obvious after watching the plot where the protagonist David's mother Gloria died suddenly in the previous plot.

But she remembered what Lin Qingshan said before, that this work is about the protagonist implanting a powerful prosthetic body, joining a gang, meeting the heroine and his partner, and starting to reach the peak of life.

She felt much more at ease.

Lin Qingshan doesn't look like someone who is seriously ill as a young man. He shouldn't write "Edge Walker" as a tragedy, right?

"what?"

Listening to the questions raised by Gu Qianli, Lin Qingshan was a little confused.

In fact, he painted "Edgewalker" just to make money. He is still a literary copywriter, so he has no creative ideas.

But he can still share his insights on why he chose to "wenzhi" this work.

"I mainly looked at the current science fiction works, which all highlight the power of future technology and the benefits and advantages of interstellar exploration, but it seems that no one has thought about what will happen to the underlying individuals in the era of rapid technological advancement... Bar?"

Lin Qingshan said, "So cyberpunk is about imagining the worst ending under the background of powerful future technology."

"Technology, wealth, and knowledge are completely in the hands of the upper class elites and capital companies. They will dominate the subsequent third and fourth world wars and divide the power of the entire world."

"The lower class people and individuals have completely become consumables and slaves. At the same time, the development of science and technology and material satisfaction have also led to a lack of spirituality and humanism."

"The essence of cyberpsychosis is not simply that the degree of transformation of the prosthetic body is too high, causing the nerves to be unable to withstand the erosion of the prosthetic body, but the pressure of the entire social environment and the weakness of the spiritual world, coupled with the degree of transformation of the prosthetic body. Too high, resulting in the consequences.”

Lin Qingshan expressed his thoughts about cyberpunk and "Edgewalker" eloquently, and then stopped.

Then, he saw... Ito Ayumi's surprised and admiring eyes, and Gu Qianli's bright admiring eyes. "Qingshan...this work of yours will definitely become famous in the history of comics!"

Gu Qianli said firmly.

"Teacher Aoyama's works... I didn't expect that they contain such profound thoughts, just like philosophy!"

Ayumi Ito couldn't help but sigh at this time.

"Ha ha……"

Lin Qingshan laughed awkwardly, "It's... not bad."

"Okay, why don't I fill in this interview answer sheet after dinner?"

He said quickly at this time, picked up the lemon and mint leaves and went into the kitchen, "This time I made Thai curry crab, as well as Thai cold clams, satay beef and other delicious dishes! I guarantee that you will say it after eating it tasty!"

"Let's chat here for a while, or have a sip of... Coke!"

"Ok."

Seeing this, Gu Qianli and Ito Ayumi also responded knowingly.

Lin Qingshan began to work enthusiastically, but during this period both Gu Qianli and Ayumi Ito walked in to take a look at Lin Qingshan's craftsmanship.

Apart from anything else, Lin Qingshan's cooking skills do seem to be impressive.

At least even people like Gu Qianli and Ayumi Ito who don't know how to cook can see that his cooking skills are very good.

At least when it comes to handling seafood such as shrimps, crabs, and clams, it’s a matter of familiarity.

This is not Lin Qingshan's ability from the system, but the experience he accumulated from cooking in his previous life. Although he is not a professional chef, but a food lover.

But he had eight or nine years of cooking experience in his previous life, so of course he was very skilled.

Lin Qingshan didn't stay in the kitchen all the time. After thinking about it, he took out the Colonel's chicken nuggets from the refrigerator that he had redeemed from the system. He fried them and paired them with satay-flavored sauce.

Let Gu Qianli and Ito Ayumi satisfy their cravings.

After another hour and a half, Chef Lin Qingshan, who had been busy for a long time, took out the prepared flavorful dishes.

After tasting it, Gu Qianli and Ito Ayumi couldn't help but light up.

"Delicious!"

Ayumi Ito showed off the unique Japanese way of exaggerated praise.

Most of the food the Japanese eat is expressed in this way, unless it is particularly unpalatable.

Otherwise, even if it is tasteless chicken ribs, they can taste it as delicious as a state banquet.

But in fact, Lin Qingshan could see that Ayumi Ito's praise was sincere.

Gu Qianli also smiled and said, "Qingshan's cooking skills are really good."

"of course!"

Lin Qingshan patted his chest and said proudly.

In this way, three people and one dog spent another happy weekend.
