If Zhang Zhong hadn't had a much better memory now, he might not even be able to answer this question.
Moreover, this kind of problem is probably difficult to find even if you search online. Who would be able to sort out these numbers?
It is unknown whether anyone finally unlocked this gift and how it was unlocked.
Originally, people thought that the five thousand gifts would be searched for by tens of thousands of people and would be found quickly. However, what everyone did not expect was that it was not until the end of the day that all five thousand gifts were unlocked.
The last day of the World Science Fiction Convention was spent by tens of thousands of people searching for treasures.
But compared to the previous few days, this day was not monotonous at all. The members really racked their brains for those weird questions. Some questions even required the cooperation of many people to answer them correctly.
The key point is that almost no one is willing to take out their mobile phones to search for answers in front of others. This is related to the dignity of a science fiction fan. They are even willing to buy a book on the spot to find the answer slowly, but are not willing to search online.
.
The process of treasure hunting was interesting and painful at the same time, but these questions brought everyone into the work again and reminded them of the feeling of reading the book at that time.
And the gifts are also very good, including signed books by various writers, figurines of characters from their works...each one is very valuable. Someone made a rough estimate. The total of these five thousand gifts is conservatively estimated to cost one million to one million.
Three million Chinese coins.
This is a real cost, not the previous form of giving away tickets.
In any case, this Jiangyang World Science Fiction Convention is the most member-friendly convention. Some lucky members can directly earn back the membership fees they paid at that time.
After the conference, Xu Yang sent Zhang Zhong a report. In order to co-organize this World Science Fiction Conference, their company lost more than 200 million Chinese coins.
However, there are some problems with the calculation method of the 200 million. Many of them are hypothetical losses. For example, the ticket fees for the Diwang Exhibition Hall are calculated based on the number of members in the report.
This is of course unreasonable, because if the World Science Fiction Convention had not been held, there would not have been so many people coming these days.
Of course, the report Xu Yang gave was not only about the loss of more than 200 million, but also had several other calculation methods. For example, the increase in turnover of the commercial area in the Zhiwang Exhibition Hall in the past few days was taken into account, and then the usual calculations were taken into account.
Taking into account the ticket revenue from the exhibition hall, the final figure was a loss of more than 5 million, which includes the money for the 5,000 gifts.
But the loss of more than 5 million was nothing at all, because according to subsequent statistics, tens of thousands of members brought Jiangyang as much as 1.25 billion in consumption in these five days.
And the real benefits are long-term. This world conference has directly made the reputation of Zhiwang Exhibition Hall and Jiangyang. It can be expected that more and more people will come to Jiangyang to travel in the future.
.
That is, on the seventh day after the World Science Fiction Conference, the official website of the World Science Fiction Association announced a news. The association finally reached an agreement with the Jiangyang Municipal Government. The association will open a branch to settle in the Chinese Science Fiction City under construction.
Seeing this news, many Chinese science fiction fans feel like they are dreaming. It has only been two years since Jiangyang officially announced the science fiction application, and now Jiangyang has not only successfully held a world science fiction conference, but also made the world
The Science Fiction Association established a branch in Jiangyang.
…
"Dad, Li Yangyang said that you want to be the president of the World Science Fiction Association. Is it true? Is the president of the World Science Fiction Association very powerful?"
Zhang Zhong was helping Pengpeng write big characters when Pengpeng suddenly raised his head and asked.
Zhang Zhong was quite surprised when he heard his daughter's question.
"The president of the World Science Fiction Association is indeed very powerful, but my father did not want to be the president."
Pengpeng tilted his head and asked, "Did Li Yangyang lie to me?"
"Li Yangyang didn't lie to you, it was just a misunderstanding." Zhang Zhong said.
"Hehe, that's good. Dad doesn't want to be the president. I heard that being the president is very busy and you won't have time to accompany me." Peng Peng said.
"No, dad will not be the president, Pengpeng, don't worry. Now that we are talking about the World Science Fiction Association, do you know how to write the words World Science Fiction Association?"
"I know, I'll write it for you to read."
Pengpeng took a brush and started writing on the paper.
Zhang Zhong looked at Pengpeng who was writing seriously and felt quite happy.
As Pengpeng gets bigger and bigger, this girl relies less and less on herself, and now she doesn't even pester herself to tell her stories every day like before.
I don’t know where she learned this set of words. Sometimes she would play in her room and not let Zhang Zhong in, saying that she needed private space.
I can hear her saying that she doesn't want to be too busy and to spend more time with her, which at least proves that her daughter still needs her.
As for the rumor that he was going to be the president of the World Science Fiction Association, he had also heard about it.
Ever since the official website of the World Science Fiction Association announced the strategic cooperation agreement with Jiang Yang, this kind of news has spread on the Internet.
People think that since a branch is going to be opened, there must be a branch president, and many people think it should be Zhang Zhonglai.
Later, the rumors became more and more popular, but the World Science Fiction Association did not come out to clarify it.
Of course, the association will not rush to clarify. After all, this kind of "scandal" is a good thing for the association.
And Zhang Zhong did not come out to clarify, because there was no need for it. If he didn't say anything, the matter would slowly lose popularity. When the association decided on the candidate for the new president, this rumor would be self-defeating.
.
In fact, only people who don't know the World Science Fiction Association would believe this rumor. People in the industry generally don't believe this rumor.
Let’s not talk about whether it is possible for a well-known writer to be the president of the association. If the association wants to reform and asks Zhang Zhong to be the president, Zhang Zhong will definitely not do it.
For Zhang Zhong, the position of president of the branch of the World Science Fiction Association is really useless and may cause unnecessary trouble.
If he really becomes the president of the association, can the Hugo Award be awarded to him in the future?
Now that he has no position, no one will say anything about every trophy he wins.
But once he becomes the president of the association branch and wins an award, even if his strength is obvious to all, there will always be people who come out to make irresponsible remarks.
There are many people in this world who believe in conspiracy theories.
"Dad, do you think what I wrote is correct?"
Zhang Zhong looked down and immediately laughed, "You must have written the wrong name for this association."
"Did you write it wrong? Isn't this xie?"
"It's Xie, but it's just a pair of leather shoes, not an association. The World Science Fiction Association is not a place that sells shoes."
