Chapter 1227 Galactic Empire
Chapter 1227 Galactic Empire
In terms of subdivision, there are many writing directions for science fiction.
For example, the world exploration category can be to explore the planet where human beings live, or to explore the universe;
For example, stories between civilizations, scientific and technological exchanges or wars between the earth and alien civilizations;
For example, the future world or even the parallel world;
Such as the doomsday wasteland, the re-establishment of civilization;
Another example is time travel, space-time paradoxes and so on.
Among the many genres subdivided into science fiction, robot science fiction is a very common writing direction.
There are countless sci-fi novels with robots as the core writing objects, and there are many excellent works no matter on Earth or Blue Star.
Especially Blue Star at the moment.
The use of robotics is already widespread.
Let's not talk about it.
There are many high-end restaurants and several Yu Dynasty hotels under the name of Sun Yaohuo alone, and there are signs of a large number of robots replacing human labor.
Like giving something to a customer.
The robot can already complete the task easily according to the pre-set program instructions.
This is just the most basic function of the robot.
With the advent of the intelligent age, some robots with more powerful functions also exist, but they have not yet entered thousands of households.
Such a situation.
Science fiction with robots as the theme has always been quite popular in Bluestar.
This is also the reason why Weizhou science fiction writer Fan Chong chose robots as the theme of his new science fiction book.
Fan Chong also specially introduced his new book:
Although his new book is long, the story is connected by six stories, which are related to each other but have different themes.
Now.
Lin Yuan also decided to write about robots!
As soon as this idea came into being, Lin Yuan tapped the keyboard quickly, and the four characters "Galaxy Empire" appeared on the computer screen soon!
Come out!
Galactic Empire!
...
That's right.
Lin Yuan's new book decided to write Isaac Asimov's "Galaxy Empire"!
We said it before.
Keigo Higashino is an all-round genius writer. The subject matter of his works is reasoning, but the subject matter involved in his creation is not only reasoning.
Really awesome.
However, what is trivial is that compared with Asimov, the author of "Galaxy Empire", the scope and influence of Keigo Higashino's works are actually insignificant.
Yes.
Asimov is a truly omniscient and omnipotent writer. He has written more than 500 books in his life. He has waited several times for his works, and he even dabbled in all the directories under the book classification. His works cover almost every aspect of human life. Everything!
Up and down the sea;
Throughout the ages;
Everything from dinosaurs to subatoms to the vast universe;
From popular novels to the history of the Roman Empire, from popular science books to the thousand-year history of the Far East, from Bible guides to scientific guides.
Each of his works is simple and rigorous but full of humorous style.
In order to give full play to his witty and funny talent, he even wrote a "Joke Collection".
Also because of this.
Asimov was hailed by readers as a "god-like man"!
The most outrageous are:
Asimov even wrote the H text——
In his later years, he published a series of works on gender topics.
However, no matter how many subjects he covers, a writer always has a direction that he is best at.
Asimov is one of the greatest science fiction writers in history, and his representative works are the "Galactic Empire" series.
This is a milestone in the history of science fiction on Earth!
Outline of the book:
With the help of robots, human beings quickly mastered the technology of transforming alien planets and started a grand movement of interstellar colonization.
Humans multiply and expand in the Milky Way like locusts, and with their indelible ignorance and wisdom, greed and conscience, they land on desolate planets one after another, and drag the Milky Way into a long era of interstellar warfare until the entire Milky Way is unified.
finally.
The rise of a huge empire that rules more than 25 million inhabited planets, spans 100,000 light-years, and has a population of trillions——
Galactic Empire!
Public opinion generally believes that the Hollywood Star Wars series borrowed the concept of "Galaxy Empire", but of course the film studio does not recognize it.
Same goes for Hollywood.
Public opinion believes that "Avatar", the highest-grossing movie in history, copied the idea of this book, but of course Cameron also disagrees.
Krugman, the 2008 Nobel Laureate in Economics, admitted:
His economic theory was inspired by Galactic Empire.
In addition, Yoshiki Tanaka's "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" is also a tribute to the Galactic Empire series.
There are also Nishio Restoration's works and so on.
also.
The British "Guardian" reported:
Based on the base chapter of the Galactic Empire series, Ben Ladeng established the terrorist organization of the same name——
base.
In short, since the publication of this book for more than half a century, it has had a profound impact on human space exploration, world situation, cutting-edge economic theory, and Hollywood movies.
...
certainly.
The story of the Galaxy Empire series is too long. There are 15 books in total, each of which is a long story. It is impossible for Lin Yuan to write all of them in one go, so this time he is going to write about the Galaxy Empire. The eighth part of the series.
Namely "I, Robot"!
It is through this work.
Asimov created the three laws of robotics at the cornerstone level of contemporary science fiction.
Rule 1: A robot may not injure a human being, or stand idly by while a human being is harmed.
The second rule: A robot must obey human orders, unless this order contradicts the first rule.
Article 3: A robot must protect itself, unless such protection contradicts the above two.
These are the three laws of robotics.
Also known as the three laws of robotics.
In order to be more perfect, Asimov actually added a "zeroth law" later.
But don't add it for now.
Asimov used the three laws to construct a series of seemingly perfect thinking logic for readers, and then used nine short stories to subvert the laws, trying to solve the loopholes and paradoxes in the theory, and the writing is full of humor and tension.
Someone might say:
Since there are fifteen volumes in Galactic Empire, why did you write the eighth volume first? Will the first few volumes be published later? Will it affect reading?
of course not.
Those who have watched the Marvel series of movies should know that the release order of the Marvel series of movies is not equal to the chronological order of the stories.
The same goes for the Galactic Empire series.
Although "I, Robot" is the eighth part of the Galactic Empire series, if it is in chronological order, this work is the origin and beginning of the Galactic Empire series.
In other words:
If you want to thoroughly understand the Galactic Empire series, starting from the eighth "I, Robot" is the correct reading order.
This is the real reason why Lin Yuan decided to write "I, Robot".
The Galactic Empire series is too long.
It's time for Lin Yuan to give him a head start.
Isn't the new book of Weizhou science fiction writer Fan Chong a series of six stories?
Lin Yuan's "I, Robot" has nine stories, and the first six stories are about Fan Chong.
The extra three are not wasted.
It just happened to be used to PK with the other three writers who started the literary battle.
With that in mind.
Lin Yuan exchanged the potion for energy, and officially began to write.
If you want to finish a novel quickly, it is very necessary to exchange energy potions.
It is said that if you know your enemy and yourself, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles.
Lin Yuan has read many of Blue Star's science fiction novels, including the direction of robots.
In Blue Star's science fiction at this time, robots still exist as imaginary enemies in the future of human beings.
The extreme idea is that robots will develop high-level intelligence, resist human enslavement, and thus wage war on humans.
Or it is in the worry and fear that "robots will threaten human beings".
It's not just science fiction writers who think so.
In the film and television works including the blue star robot theme, this setting is basically adopted uniformly, with occasional subversion, and it does not deviate from the general direction of this idea.
And Asimov's greatness is that:
He wants to control the potential threat of robots from the source.
Robots are just industrial products made by engineers. The three principles are the root of robots. Protecting human beings is the core safety mechanism after robots are created, so they will not pose a threat to humans.
It sounds easy.
But that's what's so interesting about this novel.
Because accidents are bound to happen, even with the constraints of the three laws, robots are not as flexible as human brains after all, and there will be various loopholes, forming a typical prisoner's dilemma.
...
And when Lin Yuan started to write.
The second round of Chu Kuangbi's literary battle around the world is also completely boiled because of Wei Zhou's science fiction writer Fan Chong!
Very unexpected.
This time, the majority of people who supported Chu Kuang on the Internet, and there were very few fans who made trouble!
Chu Kuang's blog comment area.
"Old thief, you must not fall here, there are still three left behind!"
"Trust the old thief!"
"Although the old thief often abuses us, this time he is not joking. Fan Chong's level is really high!"
"Fan Chong is too good at writing robots."
"Fan Chong's famous work is the robot series. After becoming famous, he no longer takes robots as the main direction of creation. This time, he suddenly wants to write about robots again. It must be because he has a higher understanding of this direction."
"The difficulty is getting higher and higher."
"Chu Kuang picked the whole world and picked ten opponents, but I have to say that the truly terrifying ones have to be the opponents of Weizhou and Zhongzhou. Compared with the opponents of other continents, although they are strong , but did not reach the top of the Blue Star Science Fiction Pyramid, otherwise, why did this matter cause such a huge sensation, isn’t it because Chu Kuang’s opponents have four world-class science fiction masters?”
"A ten-game winning streak is not realistic."
"But the top sci-fi masters in Zhongzhou and Weizhou, the old thief has to kill one no matter what, otherwise he will be laughed at by some people."
Funny to say.
These people jumped repeatedly before, as if they were specifically against Chu Kuang.
Although it was Chu Kuang's work that they bought in the bookstore, this group of people has always been cheering for the opponents of the old thief.
Tracing the source.
It's simply because these people don't think Chu Kuang will lose.
This time they frantically supported Chu Kuang because they were really anxious, otherwise they wouldn't be so worried.
...
Chu Kuang's fans are worried.
The writers in the science fiction circle are excited!
Chu Kuang singled out ten, not to mention three opponents who have already been defeated, there are still three opponents who have become a group before the fight.
The entire sci-fi circle was enraged with brain congestion!
Because for them, these ten people represent Blue Star's sci-fi circle and Chu Kuang's pk!
They confessed in advance.
The entire Blue Star sci-fi circle was ashamed.
Now that Fan Chong made a move, it finally made the Blue Star sci-fi circle look up again!
"it's over!"
"I won't let him continue to be arrogant."
"Teacher Fan Chong is right, this is a farce!"
"One pick ten?"
"You just defeated three, do you think you are invincible?"
"Even if we beat the six, so what, those six can't represent the highest level of Blue Star's science fiction, at most they can represent their own continent."
"The peak of Blue Star's sci-fi is in Weizhou, in Zhongzhou!"
"Weizhou can solve Chu Kuang without Zhongzhou's action."
"Actually speaking objectively, Chu Kuang is really powerful. Before, I thought that he could be dealt with without any action from Wei Zhou. After all, several people beat him, and he could handle it."
Really great.
But after all, it is under Weizhou and Zhongzhou.
The existence of Weizhou and Zhongzhou is the source of confidence in the Bluestar science fiction circle.
As long as the two continents don't make a move, even if Chu Kuang wins six games, he won't be considered Blue Star's top science fiction writer.
...
It's not just the Blue Star sci-fi circle.
Many netizens who don't like Chu Kuang are also carnival.
This is normal.
Chu Kuang is arrogant, domineering, arrogant and conceited. With the addition of the charm of his works, he is indeed widely loved by the public, but there are also many netizens who are not interested in his personality.
To know.
Chu Kuang has been walking all the way for so many years. Although he rarely conflicts with others, due to various reasons, he has offended some people more or less.
Like Lu Yang's fans, Xu Ping's fans, etc., it's normal not to like him.
"Fan Chong yyds!"
"Boss Fan's wave is for the people."
"Not yet."
"Isn't this a sure win?"
"Fan Chong is different from those previous opponents."
"If you're not confident enough, I suggest you check out Mr. Fan Chong's early robot themes. I personally think it's the pinnacle of Bluestar's robot themes!"
"If he wins, Fan Chong's ranking will probably skyrocket."
"Chu Kuang is the tenth on the list of writers, he must have earned blood if he wins."
"I just can't understand Chu Kuang's arrogance and lack of respect for readers."
"People's readers don't think so."
"Speaking of which, Chu Kuang's readers seem to be intimidated by this wave, and it's rare that they didn't make a fuss, cheering for their opponents, including Chu Kuang himself, who has not made any response."
"Haha, I'm afraid."
...
Fans of Chu Kuang pay attention to the movement on the Internet at any time.
When seeing someone say that they are afraid, one by one go directly to the top!
You must know that Chu Kuang's fans dared to hedge against Hong Huang's fans back then.
Can this be tolerated?
The two sides immediately quarreled.
The tearing force of the major social platforms immediately turned the entire Internet into a mess.
Especially the geek tribe side.
The topic of Chu Kuang rushed to the hot search!
It's hard not to suspect that someone is taking the rhythm.
At this time, Lin Yuan, who was writing a book at home, was completely ignorant of what was happening outside.
It wasn't until he finished writing the first chapter and glanced at his comment area during the break that he realized what happened.
Fans are arguing with someone?
This group of people is really, why get angry, just continue to cheer for the opponents according to the old rules?
All right.
Lin Yuan understood in his heart.
This is because the fans lack confidence in Chu Kuang, and they are afraid that they will really lose this literary battle, so they dare not make jokes.
It boils down to that sentence:
What kind of author has what kind of fans.
Whether fans are mad at Chu Kuang or cheering for their opponents, these strange behaviors are essentially small games between old thieves and fans.
A tacit fun game.
It's as if those bad friends can usually belittle each other in various ways, but in the face of the real "crisis", the fans of Chu Kuang are actually extremely firm.
Chu Kuang is also good.
Fans worth mentioning.
Everyone has long been tacit understanding of this.
And seeing these fans who used to like all kinds of sabotage thieves in order to defend themselves against the sunspots, Lin Yuan still had ripples in his heart after all.
subsequently.
Lin Yuan logged into Chu Kuang's account and posted a new post: "The Galactic Empire series set sail, the new book "I, Robot"."
The Galactic Empire sets sail!
This is the heart of Ann fans.
However, when all netizens saw this post, their eyes locked on the last three words of the novel's name:
robot?
Chu Kuang wants to write about robots too! ?
