After rebirth, I became a great writer.
Chapter 272 I Recommend "Three Body"
Chapter 272 I Recommend "The Three-Body Problem"
Life is not only about the present, but also poetry and the distance. Everyone has a dream about poetry and the distance in their hearts, just like a song sings,
"I want to take you to romantic Turkey, and then to Tokyo and Paris together. In fact, I really like Miami and Los Angeles with black people."
But when you are really far away from home and go abroad, it doesn’t take a few days for your poems and distant places to remain only distant places.
At that time, all you have left is one thought, go home early!
For example, Zou Yingde, who has been away from Kyoto for nearly half a month, has this idea in his heart, especially when the New Year is coming in a few days, and the idea is getting stronger and stronger, and he can't even mention the "delicious" breakfast on the plate. Interested.
"Old Zou, eat more or less!"
An old man who was about his age next to him said with concern.
"Old Zhang, you eat yours. I don't have an appetite. Foreigners are not used to breakfast. It's either bread or coffee. How can there be buns from our capital? Soy milk is delicious."
Zou Yingde glanced at the browned bread baked on the plate, but he couldn't put his mouth down. Recently, he almost vomited after eating bread.
His words fell into Lao Zhang's ears, and Lao Zhang also felt that the bagels in his hand were not delicious. If he had a choice, he would definitely prefer steamed buns and fried dough sticks.
But this is in a foreign country!Where can I find a steamed stuffed bun shop!
The restaurant of the UNESCO does not invite master chefs who can cook Chinese food, and the food is basically Westernized.
It is not easy for Zou Yingde and his group to eat authentic Chinese food. Even if there is, it is outside, and it does not necessarily have the taste of Kyoto.
Since they arrived at the cultural and educational organization, they have been busy with the International Youth Literature Competition. They are too busy to review manuscripts every day, and they have no time to go out.
"If you don't want to eat bread, let's have an egg. If you don't want to drink coffee, you can drink milk! Although grains are small, you can't miss three meals a day!"
Another chubby elder handed over a peeled white egg and pushed a cup of fragrant milk over.
This time Zou Yingde didn't refuse. Eggs and milk are enough to get used to, much better than bread and coffee.
"Hehe, Lao Wan! Among our group, you are the one who eats the most comfortably. I really admire you. You can eat even a medium-rare steak for lunch, but it is bloodshot! Yours Can your stomach take it?"
Lao Zhang looked at Lao Wan's rich face, and said a few words jokingly.
"I'm not picky about food."
"You are not picky about the food, but you are picky about the articles! Only few articles pass in your hands."
"Haha, Lao Zou can't blame me for this, blame them for writing too badly, this spiritual food can't be fooled!"
Lao Wan doesn't take it seriously, his principle is that the food can be left alone, but the article is absolutely not!
Zou Yingde shook his head helplessly and said nothing.
Reviewers are cross-reviewed with each other, and domestic writers cannot review manuscripts from their own country.
For example, Zou Yingde and the others read English ones. Of course, after they review, writers from other countries will conduct a second review. This is for the sake of fairness.
"Old Zou, another one? Good things come in pairs, you have to eat two eggs!"
"If you don't eat it, it's a good thing to eat an egg."
"Old Wan, don't try to persuade him. Now for Lao Zou, the only good news is to go home!"
"Haha, it's almost time to go home. The works published in newspapers from various countries have almost been reviewed. The list of the top should be confirmed this afternoon!"
When it came to the list of the top , Zou Yingde cheered up. Compared with going home, how many works of China can enter the top is more important this time.
It's just that they don't know yet, Zou Yingde and the others are only responsible for reviewing and recommending, and the final list depends on the organizing committee.
After the list of the top is announced, their task is completed and they can go back to China. As for the subsequent review and evaluation, it is not their participation in the selection of the top ten.
The writers who finally judged the works were re-arranged by the cultural and educational organization. They were more famous writers than Zou Yingde and the others, and they were all members of the cultural and educational committee.
Of course, they can't reach Zhu Yanlin's level. After all, people like Zhu Yanlin are already the ceiling in the circle. Although the youth literature competition is well-known, it is not enough to let him go.
"The Three-Body Problem and My Generation are definitely on the list."
Zou Yingde said that he is very optimistic about two works. In addition to Chen Tianhong's "Three-Body Problem", "My Generation" is also a masterpiece. The author is a leader of the young generation in China.
However, this was before Chen Tianhong.
"Well, there is no problem with these two books, especially "Three-Body Problem", which can compete for the first place. Alas, it is a pity that this is not a science fiction competition, otherwise the first place will be stable."
Lao Zhang nodded first, and then said with a little regret.
Before leaving the country, whether it was Zou Yingde, Lao Zhang, or Lao Wan, they were all full of confidence and believed that "Three-Body Problem" would definitely win No.1 this time.
But when reviewing the works, I found out that there are two entries from other countries that are also very well written, and "Three-Body Problem" still has competitors.
"You can't say that, "Three-Body Problem" still has a great chance, and "My Generation" is also expected to compete for the top ten! Don't be so pessimistic!"
Lao Wan's mentality was very good, he swallowed the egg he just handed to Zou Yingde while speaking.
"It would be great if Tianhong could write the third part of "The Three-Body Problem"."
This was what Zou Yingde was thinking at this time.
While Zou Yingde and the others were having breakfast in the restaurant of the cultural and educational organization, a dark-skinned man in his 300s was doing the same thing in the restaurant of the White House more than 50 kilometers away.
The breakfast on the table in front of him is not much different from Zou Yingde and the others, bread, eggs, coffee.
The only difference is that when the man was eating, there was a blond woman standing beside him, holding a document and talking about something.
"Mr. President, your schedule today has a video conference with the governors of various states at nine o'clock in the morning, and the meeting time is half an hour.
Talk to the Prime Minister of Neon Country at :, attend the press conference at :, and meet the President of the Senate at :.
Twelve o'clock is your private time. You said that you want to see the Electoral College. I suggest you keep it within 10 minutes.
12:30 Lunch time, you still need to go to New York State at pm, the activity of UNESCO is at pm”
From the woman's tone, the identity of the man who was eating can already be known.
The current president of the United States is a black man, not the two-gun Obama of his previous life. His name is Besley.
The United States in this world is not as serious as racial discrimination like in previous lives. The rights enjoyed by black people are equal to that of white people. Besley is not the first black president.
"Miss Liz, I will have more time to talk with the Electoral College at noon. I will have lunch on the plane. I agree with other arrangements."
Besley made a small adjustment to his schedule today.
"No problem, Mr. President, then I will not disturb your meal."
The president has the right to make changes to his itinerary, and Doris has no objections. She knows the reason why Besley extended his meeting with the Electoral College.
A new presidential election is about to start, and Besley has only served one term. He definitely wants to be re-elected, so as to break the "curse" that black presidents can only serve one term.
A few minutes later, Besley finished his meal and started his busy day.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the presidential plane departed from the airport on time, and it took an hour to reach New York State, and then changed to a cultural and educational organization at about three o'clock.
Besley got on the plane and didn't bother to eat lunch. He was still thinking about what he had just discussed with the leaders of the Electoral College.
The situation of the general election is not optimistic!
According to the feedback adjustment results, the competitor leads him by ten percentage points, which means that he has a great possibility of losing the election and cannot be re-elected.
"I don't understand it. That guy gives speeches every day and posts on the forum almost every moment. What he says doesn't look like a politician. It's almost the same as Huaxia's cross talk. Even this can be included in the first round of public opinion polls." The support rate in China is so much higher than mine”
Besley slandered his biggest competitor in his heart.
To be honest, he looked down on that one a bit.
He is over 70 years old, and he is still like an old Beibi, showing cuteness, talking coquettishly, and making all kinds of nonsensical jokes. If he is really elected as the president and attends various international events with this image, he will lose all the honor of the United States Face.
I can't look down on him, but I can't look down on him. Although that person's behavior is nonsensical, the people say that he is suitable for life, and they are very supportive of him.
After thinking for a long time, Besley still couldn't figure it out. He chose to eat lunch first. An empty stomach would affect his work, and this time going to a cultural and educational organization is very important.
Because it happened to be in time for the International Youth Literature Competition, there was a lot of attention to this competition at home and abroad. As the president of a country, he went to the headquarters of the cultural and educational organization in person, which in itself represented an attitude.
He pays great attention to culture, literature, and young people!
This can improve his own international image, and secondly, he can attract the support of many people, even international support. After all, people will support a president who values culture.
In fact, Besley himself also likes to read, and he also writes by himself in his spare time. He plans to publish a book after he resigns from the presidency, a book that records his presidential career.
The plane passes through the sky, getting closer and closer to the destination
Cultural and educational organization building, in a large office on the sixth floor.
An old man with a goatee is distributing the list in his hand to Zou Yingde and his party.
The old man's name is Yan Shanqing. He is a well-known writer. He represents the Huaxia Writers Association and is permanently stationed in the cultural and educational organization. He is a member of the cultural and educational committee, which is regarded as the management.
He is also one of the leaders of this international youth competition, and participates in the ranking evaluation of the final works.
"The list of the top 5 has come out. We have selected works this time, which is not bad, better than last time."
Zou Yingde quickly took over the list and searched for the selected works. "Three-Body Problem" and "My Generation" were impressively listed, and the other three works also had familiar names.
"Old Yan, do you think we can get No.1 this time?"
After reading the list, Zou Yingde asked.
"I hope there must be some. The quality of "Three-Body" itself won No.1 is not too much. Lao Cao has a good apprentice!"
After Yan Shanqing sighed with emotion, he frowned slightly.
"But the quality of "God Wants to Think" in the United States and "Mysterious Notes" in England is not bad. Although in my opinion, it is not as deep as "The Three-Body Problem", but you also know that when we make the final decision, we are here. side is at a disadvantage.”
Zou Yingde and the others' expressions darkened when they heard this, but they were helpless.
Among the committee members of cultural and educational organizations, there are more writers from Western countries than from Eastern countries, and not all Eastern countries will support China.
Westerners advocate fairness, but please don't forget that they are also xenophobic at the same time, which is not only reflected in military politics, but also in literature.
For example, this time, if "Three-Body Problem" competes with two works from Western countries for the first place, in the case of not much difference in quality, "Three-Body Problem" will be No.2 at most.
"Hehe, don't be discouraged, the final result hasn't come out yet!"
Seeing that everyone was a little depressed, Yan Shanqing spoke up to cheer everyone up.
He was actually very satisfied. Even if "Three-Body Problem" didn't get the first place, the second place would definitely be stable. This is already the best result in the youth literature competition in recent years.
As for fighting for the first place, he can only say, do your best and obey the destiny, who will let people have more western countries and more writers?
Then they chatted for a while, and someone knocked on the door of the office. It was someone from the secretariat of the cultural and educational organization, saying that the president of the United States would be arriving soon, and they were invited to greet him at the door.
In this regard, Yan Shanqing did not refuse, and this matter was notified yesterday.
The status of a writer is very high, and he is not very interested in the political world, but he is also the president of a big country, and the cultural and educational organization buildings are all in his territory, and he should be respected. This is also etiquette.
Zou Yingde and the others did not follow, and there was not enough room for so many people at the door.
At a quarter past three, Besley arrived on time with a sense of time. The following is the fixed process.
Besley first gave a wonderful speech, saying that he has always attached great importance to cultural education, and asked the cultural and educational organization what difficulties he needs to solve. Naturally, the person in charge also raised some small difficulties.
Then Besley mentioned the International Youth Literature Competition, saying that he has been paying close attention to it, and asked about the works in this competition.
And his question is very particular. He doesn't ask the specific person in charge of the cultural and educational organization, but the members of the committee.
Because the members are composed of well-known writers from various countries, let them recommend good competition works, and they will naturally recommend their own country.
Besley also had this idea, and he would ask a few questions carefully, and when he heard that he was interested, he asked the assistant beside him to write down the title of the book.
His move helped improve his image and made the members of the committee feel respected.
Soon Yan Shanqing was asked, and the first thing he said was.
"Mr. President, I recommend "Three-Body Problem", which is a science fiction novel about the exchange of information between human civilization and the alien civilization of the Three-Body Problem, a life-and-death struggle"
