Chapter 432 Can Xiazhou People Write Science Fiction? The Knife Is on the Neck
The editing work of "Manchester by the Sea" was completed during this period.
This film will premiere at the Washington Film Festival in December, along with Ye Zhiyuan's "Witness for the Prosecution" and Zhou Kai's "The Incredible Hulk".
The official release time is that "Manchester by the Sea" is the earliest, expected to be in mid-December.
"Witness for the Prosecution" is in the New Year's Day period, while Zhou Kai's "The Incredible Hulk" is most suitable for the Spring Festival period.
Regarding this film, Jiuzhou fans don't know much, just waiting for the reputation and results of the Washington Film Festival.
But what is exciting for Xiazhou fans is...
This is the first time in history that three directors from Xiazhou have participated in one of the four major film festivals in the world at the same time!
It is definitely a big step for Xiazhou films to enter the world of Jiuzhou!
The Washington Film Festival is the most commercial film festival, so it is expected that art films like "Manchester by the Sea" will suffer some losses, but Lin Qiu doesn't care much.
After all, good things are good everywhere.
The reason for participating in the Washington Film Festival is actually very simple...
By the way! !
The filming location of the movie "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" will also be in Mizhou. This is Lin Qiu's second film with a Mizhou background.
If it wasn't filmed in Mizhou, Lin Qiu would definitely not bother to go there. Even if it was directly released in Jiuzhou, it would not affect the selection of Oscars. The awards of the film festival are actually not very attractive to Lin Qiu at this stage.
…
From Xiazhou to Mizhou, it will take a while to get there by plane.
On the plane, Lin Qiu was bored and started watching videos. This time he went to Mizhou because it was not the time for formal filming.
Changan's filming team only brought some key personnel.
"Boss, look at this."
"What?"
Kaohsiung sat next to Lin Qiu and handed over the tablet in his hand.
Lin Qiu took the tablet, watched the video content on the screen, and chuckled subconsciously.
The content of this video is nothing else, it is a video of a famous talk show in Mizhou. The name of this talk show is "Rice Show". This episode invited several famous writers from Mizhou.
Among them is Mike, the leading writer in the United States who has written more than one classic science fiction novel.
There are also Adam Rogers, the top best-selling author in the United States.
Lin Qiu is not unfamiliar with this Adam Rogers. When Lao Zei's martial arts trilogy was completed, Jennifer from England, Adam Rogers from the United States, and Caesar from Texas all posted on social media to praise Lao Zei's works.
The content of the video is the debate among several authors when the host led the topic to the author "Cement Sealed Heart" who has been very popular in the East in recent years.
Mike said frankly that he heard that Lao Zei's next novel would be in the field of science fiction, and he did not think that Lao Zei had the ability to write science fiction novels.
Because he had read his previous works and thought that a considerable part of Lao Zei's works were very naive and had logical problems.
Such an author could not write a science fiction novel with rigorous logic.
Even "soft science fiction" is not easy to accomplish.
Adam Rogers said a few words for Lao Zei, saying that Lao Zei's previous works had achieved enough results and had never disappointed readers.
…
In this interview, Mike only expressed his personal views, which is the pride of a science fiction writer.
In the entire field of novels, science fiction writers and readers are definitely at the top of the contempt chain.
The so-called contempt chain is actually the sense of superiority brought by the high and low thresholds.
There is a contempt chain in music, and there is also a contempt chain in games.
But the problem is that once this program was broadcast, Mike's social media was "conquered" by thousands of Lao Zei fans from Kyushu.
…
Lao Zei's resume is nothing short of legendary.
Since he entered the physical book world from the online literature world, he has conquered countless readers and countless readers at the same time!
At least in Xiazhou, even in the three eastern states of Hanzhou and Yingzhou, almost no author will question Lao Zei's novel level.
Especially in Yingzhou, which is good at writing suspense novels, Lao Zei's "Sherlock Holmes Series" has already conquered them.
As for several super popular works, "Harry Potter" and "Sherlock Holmes", they have accumulated the world's number one popularity for Lao Zei among the readers of Jiuzhou.
Let alone reputation and honors, in terms of popularity and number of readers, I am afraid that no author can be compared with Lao Zei.
It is precisely because of this that when they heard that Mike meant to belittle Lao Zei, these Lao Zei's fans "directly rushed".
Mike's social media was extremely spectacular, with pages and pages full of attacks from Lao Zei's fans, saying that Mike's science fiction novels were more boring than one.
Under these insults, Mike got angry and sent several tweets in a row in the middle of the night.
There were those who scolded Lao Zei's fans, and there were also those who directly pointed the finger at Lao Zei's creative level.
The sentence that made thousands of fans, especially Xiazhou fans, the most angry was:
[Xiazhou people can write science fiction novels? ! Stop joking! ]
[I would rather believe that humans can survive on Mars! ! ! 】
……
If it was simply because he didn’t like the old thief’s books and writing skills, it would be understandable.
But when Mike said this, it was full of discrimination.
You know, Xiazhou Science Fiction was indeed a backwater before.
All Xiazhou book fans, whether rationally or emotionally, now believe that the old thief has the ability to challenge science fiction and bring Xiazhou science fiction out of the current desperate situation.
But "The Three-Body Problem" has not yet been officially released, and the attack from the American science fiction authors is coming. Who can bear this? !
As soon as these words came out, it was originally the Jiuzhou old thief fans who attacked Mike, but now the main force of the Xiazhou old thief fans completely joined the battle, attacking Mike while feeling aggrieved!
Because so far, Xiazhou really doesn’t have a good science fiction novel!
We can only wait until November for the release of Lao Thief's new work "The Three-Body Problem" to see if we can reverse the situation and continue the quality of Lao Thief's past creations.
This is a lack of confidence!
For example, football stars from other states proudly said: "People from Xiazhou are qualified to play football?"
Xiazhou football fans, you are angry when you are angry, you are abusive when you are abusive, but you feel aggrieved!
Because this is the consequence of weak strength.
"Boss, this matter is making a big fuss now. Do you want to respond?"
Kaohsiung asked Lin Qiu.
"of course yes."
"Show the sword!"
Lin Qiu smiled.
Opened his laptop.
Other people's swords are held to their necks, so it's unreasonable to show off their swords.
Kaohsiung watched Lin Qiu open the laptop he carried with him, then opened the document, started typing, and looked over curiously.
I saw four words written at the top of the document - "The Martian"!
Before Kaohsiung could recover, Lin Qiu's superhuman hand speed started typing quickly in the closed first-class cabin, and lines of words appeared on the computer.
[Log: SOL6]
[I'm completely fucked. This is my conclusion after careful consideration. 】
【Done. 】
[These six days were supposed to be the beginning of the most glorious two months of my life, but they turned out to be the prelude to a nightmare. 】
