Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 211 Half is flame, half is sea water
Frank Herbert's Dune series has two trilogy, a total of six books, namely "Dune", "Dune Messiah", "Descendants of Dune", "Dune God Emperor", "Dune Pagan" and "Dune Priests" .

Among these six books, of course, the first "Dune" is the most well-known, and it is also the best written one in Zhang Zhong's opinion.

But even for a great book that has won the Nebula Award and the Hugo Award, there are still many different voices.

Some people think that the science fiction of "Dune" is not hard enough, it is a world imagined by the author.

But the advantage of this book is precisely the author's wonderful fantasy. Few books can construct a nearly perfect world like "Dune".

This book involves a lot of religious and political knowledge, which has also become a point of criticism for those who don't like him, because these people think that so many religious and political elements are completely empty class struggle novels, barely Fantasy, but definitely not science fiction.

Frank's setting is more pessimistic. Advanced technology has not prevented the degradation of the social structure. This is indeed similar to fantasy novels. The infinite star is still ruled by an empire, many feudal states and guilds across all levels of society with.

However, Zhang Zhong feels that the science fiction of "Dune" is not as soft as people think, but the science fiction involved in this book is "ecology" and "system thinking" which are rarely involved in ordinary science fiction writers. In addition, how language affects the way people think and so on.

The "Dune" given to Zhang Zhong by the system is still in both Chinese and English versions. Of course, the English version is Frank's original version. As for the Chinese version, I don't know which version it is.

However, Zhang Zhong looked it over quickly in his mind, and found that the Chinese translation was much better than the translation he had seen before by a translator surnamed Pan.

Zhang Zhong sat in front of the computer and began to slowly input the English version of "Dune" into the computer. This book is more than 30 words in length, and it is also the longest book he has written so far, even according to the original manuscript. It also takes a lot of time to enter on the computer.

……

"May you go through thousands of sails and come back as a young man."

The official Weibo of Jiangyang University released a video that night, which was the video of Zhang Zhong's speech at the school.

Regarding the release of the video, Wang Xi asked Zhang Zhong for his opinion, and Zhang Zhong readily agreed, but it was just a speech, not a big deal.

Zhang Zhong's speech was originally without a title, but Jiangyang University picked out the sentence "May Qianfan go through all kinds of hardships, and come back as a young man" as the title.

It has to be said that Jiangyang University is quite patient. Although Zhang Zhong's speech at the school has been settled before, Jiangyang University has not announced it to the public.

Some gossips were also spread by school students.

Until today, after the speech, the official Weibo account of Jiangyang University did not make a formal statement.

Not long after the video was posted, Zhang Zhong's fans flooded into the comment section of the video.

[I just found out that Zhang Zhong is from Jiangyang University. 】

[I also graduated from Jiangyang University, but it was only today that I found out that Zhang Zhong is an alumni. 】

[How about this Jiangyang University? 】

[Nanhuai Province No. [-] University, are you kidding me? 】

[Ahem, stop bragging upstairs, Jiangyang University's comprehensive ranking is stable at [-] or above every year, it's really not a famous school. 】

[Although it's not a prestigious school, I couldn't pass the exam either. 】

[Jiangyang University is quite powerful, but the geographical location is too bad. Nanhuai's economy has hindered education and cannot develop. 】

[Zhang Zhong is out of the manuscript again this time, he kneels down to the boss, and he can become a speaker. 】

[May you go through thousands of sails and come back as a young man, this sentence is too high! 】

[I will be leaving the school in two months, and I was really touched when I saw Zhang Zhong's speech. 】

【Brother, come on, accept the beatings from the society. 】

[Although what Zhang Zhong said makes sense, we still need to understand the true meaning of life. 】

[I graduated this year, and I was considering whether to go to Yenching University or Lanxiang Technical School, now I have another choice, which is great. 】

[Don't, don't, we Lanxiang technical school can't lose you, this sand sculpture. 】

[A real high school dog, and now I'm considering going to Jiangyang University, is there any senior sister who can introduce me? 】

【Senior can't do it? 】

【No, I'm allergic to men. 】

[Everyone, don't be fooled by him, this guy is from Jiangyang University, and he's still a junior. 】

……

Sand sculpture netizens are very happy.

Zhang Zhong’s speech was very long, and not many people could remember it. Apart from the two well-known words in Ding Fengbo, what they remembered was the sentence “May you go through a thousand sails and come back as a young man”.

This sentence spread on the Internet at a very fast speed.

According to the unofficial statistics of the "Sand Sculpture Club", on this day, 30.00% of the [-] netizens on Huaxia's entire network changed the signature of their social software to this sentence.

And on the evening of the second day after the video came out, a romance novel titled "May you go through a thousand sails and come back as a boy" appeared on a certain literature website, and the most terrifying thing is that the number of words in this novel is as many as ten Million words.

At first, everyone thought that this book just used a name, and the content must have been written long ago.

But after reading it, they were stunned. This book turned out to be based on Jiangyang University, telling the love story of the male protagonist Zhang Qianli and the female protagonist Wang Luohua.

Readers glanced at the author's name unconsciously, and it was "Wang Luohua" in three big characters.

Nima, it turned out to be the public YY made by the boring author to Zhang Zhong.

What's even more unbearable is that in the novel, the domineering president Zhang Qianli can't help but fall in love with the piggy girl Wang Luohua, even at the expense of giving up his fortune of hundreds of billions.

But the heroine Wang Luohua ignored Zhang Qianli, claiming that the protagonist is just a rich second generation with a good skin.

In the end, Zhang Qianli forced him to commit suicide, and Wang Luohua reluctantly stayed with Zhang Qianli.

【? ? ? 】

[I actually finished reading it?Fuck? 】

[The author is very talented, I can't do it anymore, I'm going to write a book too. 】

……

"There is a romance novel of yours on the Internet. I read it. It's pretty good. Brother, you can read it too." Li Yan teased Zhang Zhong on the phone.

Zhang Zhong also knew about the novel, and said with a wry smile, "Don't fuck me up, the current readers are really more boring than I imagined."

"You should be happy. I read in the comments that many female readers want to fall in love with you. I think it's good. Anyway, I don't mind having a few more sister-in-laws." Li Yan said with a smile.

"Tell this to your brother, I don't need it here."

"Hee hee, I won't tease you anymore, I'm going to talk to you about the business. My brother told you to have dinner at home on Saturday, and he will cook himself."

Zhang Zhong curled his lips and said, "He didn't tell me?"

"He's busy, how can he have time to tell you?"

"What can he be busy with, hasn't he been resting recently?" Zhang Zhong asked strangely.

Li Yan said mysteriously, "It's not convenient for me to reveal this, if you want to know, you can ask him yourself."

"Okay then, I see, we'll go there on Saturday."

After talking on the phone with Li Yan, Zhang Zhong got up and walked to the living room. Peng Peng and Min Ya were building blocks. A small castle had begun to take shape. The two little girls built the main body of the castle and are now making the gate.

Originally, Zhang Zhong was going to take Pengpeng to climb the mountain today, but Liu Minya came to visit, and Pengpeng had forgotten about the mountain climbing, so they stayed at home.

"Oh, Zhang Pengpeng, this door must be made of red, so it looks good." Seeing that Pengpeng was going to use blue building blocks to build the city gate, Liu Minya said hastily.

Pengpeng held the blue building block and refused to put it down, "But, I think the blue door looks better, and the red door looks like a big mouth."

Liu Minya shook her head and insisted on her own opinion, "I still think red looks good. People can see the door at a glance when they walk by, how nice it is."

"Blue looks good."

"Red looks good."

Zhang Chong watched the two little girls quarreling, scratched his head and said, "Then half blue and half red, half like sea water, and half like flames, how nice it is."

Peng Peng raised his head and said, "But Dad, how can sea water and flames be together?"

Liu Minya also said, "Yes, Uncle Zhang, won't the flame go out when it touches the sea water?"

Zhang Zhong just suddenly thought of Wang Shuo's "Half of Flame, Half of Sea" and casually said such a sentence, but he didn't expect that the two little girls would instantly become angry with each other.

But what the next two little girls said made Zhang Chong even more unexpected.

Liu Minya said, "And if it's half of us, we won't be happy, because it's not the red I want, nor the blue that Zhang Pengpeng wants."

Pengpeng nodded again and again, "Yes, Dad, you are wrong. Let's use red. In this case, Liu Minya, you will be happy."

Zhang Zhong was taken aback, "Don't you want blue?"

Pengpeng waved his hand and said, "I don't really want blue that much either."

Yoo Min Ah also said, "Let's use blue, I think blue looks better."

. . . . . .

Zhang Zhong felt that he was quite successful as a peacemaker, at least the result was good, didn't he?
In the end, Comrade Zhang Pengpeng fully carried forward the spirit of the host, and set the gate as the red color that guest Liu Minya likes.

After looking at the two girls building blocks in the living room for a while, Wen Jinjiang called.

Zhang Zhong slapped his head. He was busy recording "Dune" today, and forgot an important thing.

The script of "Ten Little Indian Boys" has been completed. He told Wen Jinjiang that the script would be handed in today. Maybe Wen Jinjiang was anxious to wait, so he called.

But to Zhang Zhong's surprise, Wen Jinjiang didn't rush him to write the manuscript, but said with a smile, "I'm casting for the past two days, and I want you to give me some advice."
