"I think" Happy Hunting "deserves the Hugo Award, and this work deserves the best short novel. The judges of the World Science Fiction Association are arguing for the Hugo Award winners.

Since 1953, the World Science Fiction Association has presented the Hugo Award at the annual World Science Fiction Convention. The official name of this award is the "Science Fiction Achievement Award", in honor of Hugo Gens, the founder of modern science fiction from Luxembourg. Buck, so named Hugo Award.

Hugo Gensbach was not a science fiction writer. He founded the first true science fiction magazine "Marvel Story" in 1926 and became a pioneer in creating modern science fiction literature. In order to thank him for his contribution to science fiction literature, 1960 At the Pittsburgh Science Fiction Annual Meeting, he was awarded a special sci-fi award and the title of "Father of Science Fiction Magazine". The annual science fiction award is also known as the Hugo Award, which is also known as the NBA championship trophy. The Ryan Cup makes sense.

The Hugo Award and the Nebula Award founded by the American Association of Fantasy and Science Fiction became the Nobel Prize in science fiction literature. Since the Nebula Award is limited to works published or published in the United States, the Hugo Award has even greater influence. some.

The Hugo Awards are selected by the World Science Fiction Association every year. The process is relatively complicated. First, the special annual conference affairs meeting decides the selection items and selection methods, and then notifies the members of the nomination; the five works nominated in each project are used as the candidate list. The ballots will be issued to the members, and the final decision will be based on the votes received.

Although it is only limited to member voting, as a small fee can be paid to become a member of the conference, so this award usually receives a considerable number of votes, it can be said to faithfully reflect the preferences and views of the readers; Liu Cixin's "Three Body" This award was won because of the love of the majority of readers.

Hugo Awards are presented in August each year. This year ’s World Science Fiction Convention and Hugo Awards ceremony are coming soon. The votes sent by members have been counted, but the judges still have doubts about the final result.

There are no objections to the three awards: best long, best middle length, and best short. The works of Bol Anderson and others are indeed worthy of this honor, but they have differences on the best short middle.

According to the results of readers ’votes," Happy Hunting "won the most votes, but the award was awarded to a Chinese science fiction writer? They couldn't make up their mind yet. The supporters and the opposition could not reach an agreement.

"Gentlemen and ladies, we do not have the power to determine the award. This award is determined by the reader. Since the reader has chosen" Happy Hunting ", we should award him the best short novella. , This Mr. Sun Shaoping from China, "someone reminded.

"I don't mean to question the reader's choice, but none of us can be sure that this work was really written by Mr. Sun? After all, we lack understanding of the country and the author." Someone tried to come from another angle excuse.

"The translator of this novel is a member of the US Embassy in China. I believe he verified the author ’s identity before translating; we are not the American Fantasy and Science Fiction Association. Our awards are for writers all over the world. Yes, Chinese writers are also eligible to receive awards. "It ’s not surprising that some people have satirized the Nebula Award. Any two awards or organizations with a high degree of coincidence will have this kind of thing.

"I also think that this novel deserves an award. He has created a new sci-fi genre. Since the publication of" Happy Hunting ", many sci-fi writers have become interested in steampunk and have created many novel works. At one point, it ’s worth a Hugo Award! "Someone simply supported from a groundbreaking perspective.

"Why not send the award to that set? Instead, send it to" Happy Hunting "?" Some people still want to pick something wrong.

But in the end, supporters accounted for the majority. After all, this award was selected by readers. Those opponents also lacked sufficient reasons to deny the readers ’choice. The current president of the World Science Fiction Association finally announced," So, this year ’s Hugo Award is the most The winner of the best short novella is "Happy Hunting!"

"Then we have to notify the winners as soon as possible. Coming from China to the United States is not so easy." The opponent shrugged, and now he can only complain.

They didn't have Shen Long's contact information, but they quickly found Ken-Louis's phone number, "Hello, is this Mr. Ken-Louis, the translator of Happy Hunting?"

"Yes, it's me." Ken is very proud of this title now.

"Hello Mr. Louis, I am Bruce Kent, Secretary of the World Science Fiction Association, and I am very honored to inform you that" Happy Hunting "won the Hugo Award for Best Short Novelette of the Year ....."

"What? You mean the Hugo Award!" Before the other party finished, Ken jumped directly. For a senior science fiction fan ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ This news is really exciting!

"Yes, please and Sun Shaoping, the author of" Happy Hunting ", come to the Auditorium of the University of California, Los Angeles in Los Angeles, USA on August 21 to attend the award ceremony ... Since we can't find Mr. Sun Shaoping's contact information, please trouble you On your behalf, the invitation letter will be mailed to you later, and you will be asked to forward it at that time, "the secretary said.

"No problem, I will definitely pull this guy back to the United States!" Ken Louis repeatedly promised that when he hung up the phone, he rushed straight out of the office and met everyone with a warm hug and shouted, "Haha The work I translated won the Hugo Award! I'm going to Los Angeles to attend the award ceremony! "It's more exciting than the national football team's entry into the World Cup.

"Okay, Mr. Louis, we have shared your joy. Now can you go back to the office and give us a little space to work?" It wasn't until Ken's mood calmed down until the superior came out to stop it.

Back to the office, he didn't even want to work, he directly called the provincial cultural and cultural association where Shen Long is located, "This is Ken Luis from the US Embassy. Is Mr. Shaoping Sun here?"

"I'm sorry, Teacher Sun didn't come today, do you have anything?" Upon hearing the other party's whereabouts, the staff of the Wenlian Federation immediately became nervous. What's the matter?

"This is the case. Mr. Sun's work won the Hugo Award, the highest award in the world's science fiction literature. The World Science Fiction Association invited him to go to Los Angeles to participate in the awards ceremony! Hello .......... Are there anyone else?" Ken said half of it , But there was no sound opposite.
