At nine o'clock in the evening, Shen Long sent Xiaoxia back to her residence, although now the two of them have identified each other, they have not seen each other's parents, and they have not completed the formalities, many things are still a little inconvenient, Xiaoxia and Qin Ling are still different after all.

Back at home, Shen Long recalled today's events, and thought of a funny thing, Gao Lang likes Xiaoxia, but Xiaoxia likes herself, and Gao Lang has more than one child in his family, his father Gao Weishan also has a daughter named Gao Min, who is a student of the Provincial Academy of Fine Arts, beautiful, smart and sensible.

And Gao Min has always liked Wu Zhongping, the child of Wu Bin, the deputy secretary of the province, but Wu Zhongping is not interested in her at all, but he likes Sun Lanxiang, who is also studying at North China University of Technology.

Thinking of the entanglement between Sun Shaoping and Hao Hongmei, Jin Xiu and Gu Yangmin, Shen Long felt that Lu Yao was a little too lazy in setting up the feelings of the characters, and you couldn't keep picking up wool with a family.

And it is a little inappropriate for the brothers and sisters of the Sun family to be liked by the children of high-ranking cadres at the same time, counting how many high-level children in the province can compare with Tian Xiaoxia and Gao Lang's identity? It's all done by the Sun brothers and sisters, which is a bit too coincidental, right?

In other words, although Lu Yao was born in a poor rural area, he did not look down on the villagers in terms of the relationship between men and women, which is even more obvious in his other important work "Life"; Some people may say that Lu Yao's protagonists are all excellent, and they should have better partners.

That's right, if you ask Sun Shaoping to find an object that doesn't know what words the reader will feel awkward, but are the children from the countryside uneducated? Why do you have to add a high-level cadre status to Tian Xiaoxia and Wu Zhongping? I'm afraid this is not only the reason for Tonya's plot, Shen Long is a little unhappy about this, after all, he himself is not from a big family.

However, Shen Long did not intend to intervene in the relationship between Sun Lanxiang and Wu Zhongping, at least according to the description in the book, Wu Zhongping is a very good boyfriend, and he does not have that bureaucratic style at home, Lanxiang went to their house and got along with Wu Bin and his wife very happily, this is not a good marriage.

Speaking of Gao Weishan, Gao Bujie, Wu Bin, Tian Fujun, and even Qiao Bonian, the number one in this province, Shen Long couldn't help laughing again, in the few descriptions of high-level political games in the original work, Lu Yao made even greater mistakes, at least judging from Shen Long's experience in the political arena, these people have failed in many things.

This is not because of their lack of ability or the limitations of the times, but because Lu Yao lacks an understanding of high-level political figures, which he seems to have mentioned in "Morning Begins at Noon".

Shen Long just complained, these things have nothing to do with him, according to what he has learned from reading newspapers and TV shows during this time, as long as it has nothing to do with the original plot, the IQ of Tian Fujun and others is still very online, which makes him full of confidence in continuing to promote the development of science fiction literature in the future.

He is not afraid that these people are too capable, he is afraid that they will not play according to the routine, if they are really like what Lu Yao wrote, Shen Long really doesn't know what to do.

These inconsequential things were put aside, and at the same time, in the capital, in the embassy of the United States in China, Ken Luis, an embassy staff member who was proficient in Chinese and loved science fiction literature, finished his day's work, made himself a cup of coffee, and then picked up the "Science Fiction Literature and Art" that he had just bought during the day to read.

In fact, Ken, who has always admired Asimov and Heinlein, is unlikely to be able to look at these relatively immature science fiction works in China, you must know that the United States is now the paradise of science fiction, to paraphrase a sentence Liu Cixin said, that is, Americans watch Chinese write science fiction, as if Chinese know that there are Americans writing martial arts as surprised, what, you still write this there?

In fact, of course, there are Chinese who write science fiction, and Americans who write martial arts also have them, but they are not valued by the other party.

Ken Lewis also wants to see the latest American science fiction works, but unfortunately there is no Internet as convenient as later generations, and it takes a long time to send magazines from the United States to China, so he can only find some Chinese science fiction to satisfy his hunger.

Fortunately, now China's science fiction level is very bright, and he has gradually passed through his immature childhood and ushered in maturity, and recently he has seen a few quite good ones, such as "The Country Teacher" and "The Chinese Sun", the former blends such two completely different elements together without showing any dissonance, which surprised Ken.

The latter, although a bit old-fashioned, but the longing for the sea of stars moved Ken very much, and now it has only been ten years since the last American moon landing, and Ken still remembers those years deeply.

Ah, I don't know which Mr. Sun Shaoping has any new works, compared to him, other Chinese science fiction writers are too immature, open the catalog, Ken immediately began to search for Sun Shaoping's three words, he did the same in the previous issues, but he didn't find it, and this time, it didn't take much effort to see the name he wanted in the most eye-catching place.

Hey, "Happy Hunting"? What kind of work will this be? Judging from the name alone, it seems to be very different from his first two works.

Ken quickly flipped to the text, and read it hungrily, the description of the fox spirit at the beginning made Ken a little confused, but he remembered the lesson of "The Village Teacher" and read it patiently.

This is...... When the steampunk style of Xiangjiang is gradually unveiled, Ken is attracted to this wonderful world that has never been described by science fiction writers, the nostalgia of the Victorian era, the coexistence of advanced and backward, magic and technology, tuxedos, top hats, crutches and pocket watches, steam, gears, airships, trains, difference machines, these wonderful elements are blended together in a way that no one has ever imagined, but it seems so natural.

It's as if there really is such a world in a parallel time and space, if oil and electricity have not been discovered, and the world continues to this day, maybe that's it, right? Aside from those magical elements, Ken couldn't help but think so.

As soon as he saw the last line, Ken immediately returned to the first line and read it again, reading the story five times in one breath before Ken put down the magazine, and at the same time an irrepressible impulse sprouted - I want to translate this article into English and publish it in an American science fiction magazine!
