The Goddess Shines on America

Chapter 23: , Me, Asimov

   "Oh, you are Alice, aren't you, I am very impressed with you tonight."

  The old man smiled and said to Alice: "When Lawrence was giving a speech, you were standing in the lower left corner of him. This skirt is really beautiful."

   Alice is slanderous, maybe this old man is just like that Speck, and he's a **** Loli or something, otherwise, why not look at Mr. Lawrence and just stare at himself?

But I was slanderous, I still had to smile obediently: "This was specially picked by Cici for me. I haven't worn it before tonight. Actually, this is the first time I have worn such a beautiful dress. Thank her again. After all, I would never buy it if I changed it to myself."

   Anyway, no one knew that his family made a lot of money from stock trading. Alice didn't think there was any omission in this sentence. After all, this skirt was indeed bought for her by Cici, and it is also a new children's wear specially launched by Chanel this year. Not to mention the price, it is a limited edition in itself.

   As an ordinary **** the surface, it is normal that she would not buy it.

Fortunately, the old man didn't seem to recognize that this is Chanel's new spring children's clothing. It does not seem to be a senior LOLI controller, but he still smiled and said, "You and this guy's daughter, that Cici is a classmate, right? I usually like to do something. What? Do you like reading?"

Before Alice could speak, Mr. Lawrence laughed and said, "Please, Isaac, how can you not get rid of your old problems for so many years? Whenever you see a child, you love to ask him if he likes to read. You treat them all. Think of it as yourself?"

   After finishing, he smiled at Alice: "Alice, let me introduce you. This is a famous science fiction writer, Isaac Asimov. Have you heard of his name?"

   Alice blinked.

   Asimov?

   Very familiar name.

What did    do?

   Science fiction novelist.

   What science fiction writer?

do not know.

   "Terminator" and "Alien"?

   No, they are movies.

   "Um... a familiar name..."

   After thinking about it for a long time, I didn’t think about it, so Alice had to tell the truth: "But it's just familiar, I'm sorry, that... Mr. Asimov, please forgive me for not being very young. What is your famous work...?"

   I think I also think that if I name only one work, Alice will not know it. After thinking about it, Asimov said with a smile: "Have you heard of the three laws of robotics?"

   Alice blinked again.

   "The three laws?"

   "Ah! The three laws!"

   is the beginning of the "Me, Robot" movie!

   "Ah, you wrote that thing!?"

   Ah, yes, Asimov, a science fiction writer, the three laws of robots, three unknown and familiar names, identities, and nouns come together. It really is so true!

   "Uh...Which novel is it written in?"

   What specific psychological activities Alice had, of course the two men present couldn't guess it, but seeing her four sentences in a row, she was so expressing, they all couldn't help laughing.

"No, Isaac, you really failed. You said that you didn't recognize your name, and that you don't know what the work is. Only such a law is remembered by the little girl! Haha~ No, no, it makes me laugh to death. , You really failed!"

   "That...Alice?"

   Asimov was even more dumbfounded: "You have heard of my law...but I don't know which book it is?"

  Mother, of course I know.

   Alice rolled her eyes inwardly.

   Did you talk about this at the beginning of the movie "Me, Robot", the three-line subtitles are displayed in turn, and then the story of the robot diving to save people? And the movie also said that those three laws actually have loopholes, that's why the robots later became "bad"...

   But that is a movie starring Will Smith. What does it have to do with you?

   "Um... I'm sorry, I just remember such a law."

   Alice smiled wryly, but also out of sincerity. After all, I remember the content of the book, but I don't know the name of the book, and even the author himself "seems to have heard it" in front of the author himself. This is really... too embarrassing.

   After all, according to Mr. Lawrence, this gentleman is very famous.

   "When did you bring it up?"

   asked, Alice was really curious, when did Asimov put up this famous quote in "I, Robot" starring Will Smith?

   "Oh, that would be early."

   Apparently Asimov, who was in his sixties, looked at Mr. Lawrence next to him and smiled: "In the 1950s, when I was writing the book "Me, Robot", you were six or seven years old, right?"

   After finishing speaking, he looked at Alice: "As for you, child, then... child? Child? What's wrong with you? Child?"

   Alice shook her head vigorously, her little white face flushed with red.

   "Ahem, sorry, I drank vodka secretly, goodbye!"

   left a sentence and she quickly ran away.

   is too embarrassing!

   Alice has lived for twelve years, and she felt so embarrassed for the first time!

   A series of changes made her really no longer able to stand in front of Asimov. She trotted all the way to a corner, separated by a group of guests, and was finally able to avoid each other.

"what the hell?"

   Standing against the wall, Alice held her forehead speechlessly.

   Asimov, she admitted in her heart that she did know the name very well!

  The world-famous master of science fiction, what Asimov!

   But as to what works this writer has written... She really doesn't know.

   In fact, when she heard the name suddenly, Alice subconsciously linked it to Verne.

Verne’s name is naturally needless to say. "Children of Captain Grant", "Twenty Thousand Miles Under the Sea" and "Mysterious Island" are all well-known masterpieces. As geniuses who predicted the existence of submarines as early as the last century, "Science Fiction" The name "Father" can be said to spread all over the world.

   But this Isaac Asifmo... who is it?

   "Child, what are you doing standing in the corner for such a night worth enjoying?"

   Seeing the figure of Alice "fleeing from the wild" not far away, Speck couldn't help but wondered if this girl had been bullied by someone, so he walked through the layers of people and came to her.

   "You are... Ah, Mr. Speck from Bantam Books, right?"

   Seeing the incoming person, Alice's eyes lit up immediately.

   "I want to ask a question, sir, Isaac Asimov, what famous works does this writer have?"

When he was suddenly thrown into such a question, Speck was somewhat dazed, but seeing that Alice was not just being bullied, he was relieved: "Mr. Asimov, he is in the science fiction world. A master, and he is here tonight."

   said, he pointed directly at the corner of the living room, passing through the layers of people, Asimov's figure was clearly visible.

   "Mr. Asimov is in his sixties this year and has written about 400 books. As for his works, have you heard of the "Galactic Empire" series?"

   Alice shook her head quite blankly. She had seen Liu Cixin's "Three-Body" for orthodox science fiction or something. She hadn't even seen Verne's work.

   "... Is it related to Lucas's "Star Wars"?"

  Speck laughed suddenly, expecting an elementary school girl to have read Asimov's work, which is really a bit embarrassing.

   "This...haha, I think you should ask Lucas, kid."

"As for the galactic empire, it is a series of novels that Asimov has been writing since the 1950s. It is about the establishment of an entire galactic empire in the galaxy after humans entered the universe with the power of robots. This country is very large. There are 25 million inhabited planets alone, spanning 100,000 light-years, and a population of several trillion!"

  Magnificent, it is very magnificent, but as soon as I know that it is a science fiction novel in the 1950s, Alice does not need to read it. This work will definitely not be able to enter her eyes.

   Just hearing this so-called grand scene, she suddenly couldn't help but curl her lips. The writing age is here. Even if the scale is doubled, it is estimated that the characters are still just Big Macs for lunch, right?

   Just listen to Spek continue to say: "Then one day, a genius was born. A mathematician named Harry Shetton invented a new subject, called psychological history. To put it more popularly, it is macro-prediction."

   "...macro?"

Speck nodded and said, "Yes, at a macro level. This so-called prophecy actually uses mathematical formulas to reason about the social behavior of people with a huge base, and then get the possibility. You know children, this is science fiction. Not the Lord of the Rings!"

   "Uh... well, what then? What prediction did the priest make?"

   At this moment, facing a cute little girl like Alice who "knows nothing", UU reading www.uukanshu.com Speck was really inspired to tell a story.

   He first looked at the crowd around him, did a lot of effort to reveal the shocking secrets, and then spoke mysteriously.

   "You know, Alice, the Sheyton prophesied that although there is no sign, the galactic empire that has existed for ten thousand years is about to be destroyed!"

   So, he exposed the mystery in a tone that was almost aria.

   Then, I saw Alice standing there calmly.

  Speck: "……"

  Alice: "……"

  Speck: "……"

   Alice: "...oh."

  Speck: "...oh?"

   "Just a ‘oh’!?"

Speck yelled in frustration: "The Galactic Empire is about to be destroyed! Alice, a huge empire spanning 100,000 light-years, with 25 million inhabited planets and several trillion people, has gone through a whole After ten thousand years of history, it will be destroyed!"

   Hearing Speck’s high-pitched shout, the cheerful men and women around couldn’t help but stop talking, and all focused their eyes.

   In fact, as early as Speck had a conversation with the only girl in the audience, it was already noticeable enough.

   But now, what's the situation?

"Oh…"

   Facing everyone's different eyes, and Speck's frustrated cry, Alice was still very calm.

   "Then the sci-fi version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms began."

  Speck blinked, but he knew this Chinese masterpiece.

   "Uh...yes."
