Chapter 177

The No.30 Eighth Science Fiction Galaxy Awards came to an end.

After the awards were almost over, Chuhe, as the winner of the special award of the Galaxy Award, was specially invited to give a speech.

This speech only takes a few minutes, and I don't even need a manuscript. I mainly talk about my own journey of writing "Poetry and the Sea" and my outlook on science fiction literature.

But in just a few minutes, it was like years for Shao Yaoyao.

She is world-weary and autistic.

Chuhe's voice kept echoing in the venue, tormenting her to doubt her life.

If it wasn't for being at the meeting place, Shao Yaoyao would definitely have come with the sword.

Yuan Huaying was puzzled by the side, she couldn't figure out why Shao Yaoyao had such a reaction.

Shock, resentment, numbness, despair... What are these?

Chen Quanyi was also very puzzled. As Shao Minghua's friend, he wanted to take care of Shao Yaoyao this time, so he couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Yaoyao, are you okay?"

Shao Yaoyao sniffed, as if she was about to cry.

"Mr. Chen, I went home directly after the show, and I won't wait for you."

"Why are you so anxious?"

"tired."

No more words.

Yuan Huaying wanted to ask, but seeing that Shao Yaoyao was depressed, it was inconvenient to ask more.

Finally, after Chu He finished his speech, the awards ceremony came to an end, and everyone could leave.

Shao Yaoyao got up and left, holding the torn hem of her skirt, she walked so fast that she disappeared after a while.

When Chuhe stepped down from the stage, many people were still applauding.

Liu Qiang ran over and hugged Chuhe: "Haha, Mr. Chu, thanks to you, I won the best editor award!"

Liu Qiang also won the award, also for "Poetry and the Sea".

Chu He smiled and looked at the auditorium on the left: "Where is Shao Yaoyao?"

"Sure enough, your heart is moved. That person in Hanfu is Shao Yaoyao. You should have flirted with her on stage just now, right?" Liu Qiang chuckled.

Chuhe didn't make eye contact just now. In fact, he was not distracted. After all, there is no script for the speech, so it is quite difficult to talk for a few minutes.

"Chu Xiaohe, congratulations." Yuan Huaying walked over, bringing Chen Quanyi with him.

Chen Quan stretched out his hand: "You are really young and promising, your book is read by a group of big shots in the capital."

"He is Chen Quanyi." Liu Qiang poked Chuhe.

Chu He shook hands with Chen Quan, and said modestly, "Mr. Chen is too ridiculous."

"Don't be polite, don't treat me like an old man. I am very optimistic about you, and hope to see you again at the Global Chinese Science Fiction Nebula Awards." Chen Quanyi smiled kindly, and he was quite optimistic about Chuhe.

But the meaning of these words is also to tell Chuhe to continue to work hard, the science fiction Galaxy Award is not enough, if Chuhe is willing to do this, it will be a waste of talent.

Chuhe naturally nodded. You can try the Galaxy Award, Nebula Award, Prometheus Award, Locus Award, and even the Hugo Award. After all, it is a work written by the invincible system.

After some chatting, Chen Quanyi also left, and he went somewhere else with his old friend.

Yuan Huaying didn't leave this time. She pulled Chuhe over and asked, "What's the matter with you? Did you provoke Yaoyao? Why is she going back to Beijing as soon as the meeting is over? I'm still thinking about matching you two."

Chuhe smiled wryly, it seemed that Shao Yaoyao really went crazy.

"It's a crime." Chuhe could only say three words.

Liu Qiang said: "Oh, it's fine if you can't match up. Is a man like Mr. Chu afraid that he won't find a girlfriend?"

Liu Qiang can take it easy, and he still has important things to do, which are also related to Chuhe.

"Mr. Chu, don't go back to Jiangcheng, we should negotiate a contract with Penguin Comics." Liu Qiang rubbed his hands, the big business is coming.

Penguin Comics came to talk about it last month, but they were only willing to pay 1000 million royalties. Naturally, "Science Fiction World" was not satisfied and wanted to raise the price.

The two sides were deadlocked.

Today "Poetry and the Sea I" won the Galaxy Award, and the bargaining chip has greatly increased, and the negotiation can be restarted.

The Galaxy Award does not actually have much influence, but it is a hurdle that science fiction writers must cross.

"Poetry and the Sea I" won the Galaxy Award, and it has crossed that hurdle. In the future, "Science Fiction World" and even the domestic sci-fi literature circle will strongly support it, and send it abroad to participate in various international competitions, it will be adulterated part of national honor.

It is conceivable that once "Poetry and the Sea I" wins an international award, how much profit it will create. This is what Penguin Comics should consider the most, and it is also the key to "Science Fiction World"'s refusal to give up the copyright easily.

Who knows how much energy "Poetry and the Sea I" can explode in the future?

"1000 million is the value of "Poetry and the Sea" at the current stage. It is already very popular, and it is worth the price. Penguin Comics is too stingy, and we are only willing to value it at this stage. We are not that stupid." Yuan Huaying also mentioned Negotiations, ignore Shao Yaoyao for now.

Chuhe spread his hands: "Let's talk, I can only eat melons."

"You have to go to the scene to eat melons. Go tomorrow. Your words are also very important. Remember, our bottom line is 800 million. Try to raise it to more than 2000 million."

----

In the evening, Shao Yaoyao returned to the imperial capital.

The driver took her home, she silently took a shower, silently went to bed, silently rolled a taco, stared at the ceiling without moving.

This went on for a full two hours.

Aunt Liu who was wandering outside hurried back.

"My eldest lady, why are you so elusive? You didn't say anything when you came back suddenly." Aunt Liu yelled, seeing that the lady didn't say a word, she couldn't help but wondered: "Miss, is your idol ugly? Why are you so dead. "

Shao Yaoyao sighed softly, I simply endured the suffering that I shouldn't have at this age.

"Throw "Poetry and the Sea I" into the utility room, I don't want to see this book in the future." Shao Yaoyao finally spoke, very numb and indifferent.

Aunt Liu was stunned: "Isn't it? That's your treasure, and you specially wrapped it in a book cover."

"I lost it." Shao Yaoyao could not doubt it.

Aunt Liu had no choice but to lose it, and she was quite distressed.

After losing it, she went to Shao Yaoyao's boudoir and said, "Miss, have you abandoned the pit? Is it that "Poetry and the Sea II" is getting worse and worse? That's fine, those authors, the updates are slow and the quality is poor." , nothing to look at."

"No!" Shao Yaoyao retorted suddenly, turning over sullenly.

"Then why don't you watch it? Usually, you can't fall asleep if you don't watch the update."

"I can sleep now, even if I don't watch it! Even if I can't sleep, I won't watch it!"

Aunt Liu scratched her head and left.

The night is getting darker, and everything is still.

Shao Yaoyao slept with her eyes closed, and opened her bloodshot eyes at three o'clock in the middle of the night.

Sure enough, I can't sleep without watching the update.

She reached out and grabbed the mobile phone next to the bed, and opened the reading website.

"Poetry and the Sea II" has been updated, and readers are enthusiastically discussing today's plot.

Shao Yaoyao wanted to click on it immediately, but held back with difficulty.

I do not watch!Don't even watch it!

She dropped the phone abruptly and continued to sleep.

At five o'clock in the morning, she opened her bloodshot eyes again, but she still couldn't sleep.

Shao Yaoyao grabbed the phone again, and in a flash of inspiration, she directly searched for the pirated version of "Poetry and the Sea II".

If I don’t pay for it, I don’t count it as watching it!
You stinky pervert hahahahahahahaha!
