The concern of colleagues in the company also made Zhang Hanting feel warm.

As the editor-in-chief who personally discovered "Three-Body Problem", the honor of "Three-Body Problem" is absolutely inextricably related to him. If "Three-Body Problem" really can win the Galaxy Award, then he will definitely enjoy the fame of science fiction.

literary world.

But when he thought of the poverty and hunger that Writer Zheng was facing, Zhang Hanting felt extremely sad.

Society's oppression of such geniuses is simply too bad!

Faced with this situation, Zhang Hanting naturally felt anxious. He did not see Writer Zheng's contact number in the manuscript, but he did see Writer Zheng's address.

After the latest issue of "Science Fiction World" came out two days ago, he personally mailed samples and a reminder letter to Mr. Zheng, but there was no reply for a long time, which made Zhang Hanting feel bad.

Early this morning, he went to find the writer's residence according to the submission address, but found that writer Zheng had been away for many days and there was no one at home.

Two registered letters lay quietly in the mailbox, waiting for their owner to open them.

What happened?

Zhang Hanting looked confused. He inquired about Writer Zheng's information in many ways, but still found nothing. Disappointed, he drank three large glasses of liquor in a roadside restaurant, feeling sorry for the fate of the writer who was in trouble, and also felt that the manuscript was about to be discontinued.

have no choice.

He felt sleepy when he was drunk, so he went home and slept for three hours.

After waking up and returning to the magazine, I heard my editor shouting: "Boss, new email, Mr. Zheng Qianzheng, the author of "The Three-Body Problem", has submitted a manuscript!"

"What?"

Zhang Hanting thought he heard it wrong: "Can you say it again?"

Looking at Zhang Hanting, whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, the editor shrank his neck and said timidly: "It's an email from Mr. Zheng Qianzheng. He just submitted the article by email!"

Zhang Hanting's eyes widened and he quickly went to the computer to check.

He quickly opened the mailbox and saw an email called "Zheng Qian - "The Three-Body Problem" - 60,000 words" lying quietly in the mailbox.

The editor hasn't opened it yet. She knows that this is a key manuscript that the club is concerned about, and she doesn't dare to act rashly.

But Zhang Hanting went without any scruples. After all, he was the reviewer, so he quickly clicked to open and downloaded the attachment. Soon, the 60,000-word "Three-Body" appeared in front of him.

Zhang Hanting took a deep breath, held back his heartbeat, and continued to stare.

Time passed by second by minute.

Half an hour later, Zhang Hanting took a deep breath, stood up and shouted: "Wonderful! So wonderful!"

The movement here made the editors of the entire magazine raise their heads and look over curiously.

But Zhang Hanting didn't care. After he classified the manuscript, he hurried to the editor-in-chief's office. Along the way, he was filled with excitement and excitement.

…

The 60,000-word "Three-Body Problem" mainly tells the story of the "Three-Body Civilization" that is four light years away and receives information from the earth.

Ye Wenjie, desperate for humanity, exposed the coordinates of the earth to the Trisolarans, completely changing the fate of mankind.

First, there was an abnormal disturbance in the basic science of the earth, and science could not continue to advance. Nanoscientist Wang Miao accidentally entered the mysterious online game "Three Body" and began to gradually approach the truth of the world.

Later, when Wang Miao attended a player gathering, he came into contact with a secret organization formed in response to the arrival of the Trisolarans on Earth - Eto...

There are two clips in it that made Zhang Hanting burst into tears and his blood boiled.

The first part is about the reaction of monitor No. 1379 in the Trisolaran world when he saw the message sent by Ye Wenjie...

Monitoring is a humble profession.

They were in the listening room, with the eternal night outside the window and the vast and desolate universe behind them.

The living conditions of the Trisolarans are too cruel. There are three suns and no rules. They can only survive in the short constant era.

If they want to survive, they have to abandon all emotions, because emotions will make the spirit fragile.

They also have no personal interests, because the survival of the race is the only meaning in their lives.

Such beings themselves will not have a sense of morality, they only need to be calm and numb.

Here, only vulnerability is evil.

At this moment, the information from the earth gave listener No. 1379 a huge shock.

In his lonely and numb life, he had never experienced warmth.

But now, he knows the earth!

There is only one sun there, a blue ocean that will never freeze! And a huge, extremely green forest!

He knew what this information meant - the powerful Trisolarans would destroy the weak humans and occupy the earth.

However, after the position of the earth is determined, he will be unemployed, and he will not be able to find a new job as he gets older. His final outcome will be the same as other older Trisolarans, who can only be dehydrated and burned.

Because the Trisolaris society does not support idle people.

Maybe it is because people are about to die that they become more sentimental towards the beautiful world.

The listener felt that he could save the earth, so at the critical moment, he issued a warning to humans, "Don't answer! Don't answer! Don't answer!"

This description made Zhang Hanting burst into tears. He stepped into the perspective of the inspector and felt extremely shocked.

Listener No. 1379 betrayed his own civilization just like Ye Wenjie, but he did it not for hatred, but for beauty, even if this beauty did not belong to him.

In addition, another fragment in the manuscript also gave Zhang Hanting goosebumps all over his body.

"From today on, we are comrades!"

Maybe only people in socially conscious countries will understand the meaning of this sentence.

…

In the chief editor's office, after reading Zheng Qian's latest submission "The Three-Body Problem", the chief editor rubbed his eyes, calmed down his mood, and then said with emotion: "The narrative is grand and logical, the plot is exciting, and all the settings are very reasonable.

, the most rare thing is that this is a science fiction world that belongs to us Chinese..."

Zhang Hanting nodded and said: "Yes, the opening chapter is already so grand. I can't imagine what the subsequent articles and settings will look like as they unfold!"

"Okay, I agree with your price increase. It can't be higher than seven hundred per thousand words. This price is already comparable to that of some well-known writers. The sales volume has not yet come out. Considering Writer Zheng's difficulties, another suggestion of yours,

I also promise that regardless of profit or loss, the manuscripts of The Three-Body Problem will not be less than 1,000 words and 700 words in the future."

The editor-in-chief sighed: "This is the first time I have seen an editor-in-chief who does not stand on the magazine's side but instead speaks for the author..."

Zhang Hanting was about to speak but stopped.

The editor-in-chief waved his hand: "However, our "Science Fiction World" was originally created to support Chinese science fiction literature. If "The Three-Body Problem" can really win the Galaxy Award in the end, and even go out of China and win the Nebula Award or even the Hugo Award,

So as to go global, all our efforts now are worth it, and everything is for Chinese science fiction literature."
