"... Mr. Sun's" Happy Hunting "opened a new field of science fiction, steampunk, which brought us a Victorian nostalgia, a world like utopia, full of unique charm, and many writers have noticed The charm of the steampunk world, I believe more similar works will be born in the future. "

"Below, we invite Mr. Sun Shaoping to come to the stage to receive the award and make a speech!" The presentation ended, and the host asked Shen Long to go on stage with a smile.

Shen Long took care of his tuxedo and walked on stage with confidence. He received a trophy with a peculiar base from the current chairman of the World Science Fiction Association.

This is also the unique style of the Hugo Awards. The Hugo Awards only have trophies and no prizes. From the 11th awards ceremony, someone designed a rocket trophy with finned wings, and another two years later designed another shape, just The shape of the base is different, and since then the award has had an unwritten rule: the trophy base will be changed to a different shape every year.

Thanks to the award winners, Shen Long boarded the podium and began to express his award-winning speech, "First of all, I would like to thank the magazines" Science Fiction and Literature "and" Fantasy and Science Fiction Literature ". ! "

Yang Xiao and the staff of "Fantasy and Science Fiction Literature" beckoned, and Yang Xiao was very excited. With this sentence, "Science Fiction Literature and Art" can be famous in the world.

"I think everyone must be curious, and there will be questions like: Does China also have science fiction? Do the people there also have all kinds of wonderful scientific fantasy?" Shen Long's words caused a laugh, and they were more or less similar. idea.

"Here, I would like to introduce to you a senior from China. His name is Tao Chengdao. The birth time of Tao Chengdao is beyond test. His main activity time is in the late 14th century AD. He is very good at using gunpowder; In the 14th century, the Ming Dynasty of China played an important role in the war to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty. It was sealed by the Emperor Ming as 10,000 households, and Tao Chengdao has been called 10,000 households since then. "Shen Long said slowly.

When I first talked about Tao Chengdao, Xiao Xia and Yang Xiao didn't understand a bit, but when the words Wanhu came out, they suddenly realized that even a small disturbance rang out among those foreign audiences.

"Tao Chengdao had the idea of ​​flying with gunpowder according to the records of his ancestors, and began his own development work; one day in 1390, he held two big kites and sat on a snake with 47 rockets tied to it. In a flying car, and then he ordered his servant to light the first row of rockets. "

"Huh ~" There was a cry of exclamation in the crowd, and they all understood what it meant.

"After the rocket was ignited, the smoke around the speeding car was rolling, and the flames were tumbling. In an instant, the speeding car had left the ground and slowly rose to the sky; when the crowds on the ground cheered, the second row of rockets ignited by themselves. The tragedy happened, and I saw Tao Chengdao's flying car on the blue sky turned into a fire. Tao Chengdao fell from the burning car, and he held two huge kites with fire in his hand and fell to the ground. . "

"Tao Chengdao's flying career ended, he was buried on the Wanjia Mountain with blooming flowers; Tao Chengdao's flying attempt failed, but his idea of ​​using rocket power to lift off was the first in the world, so he was recognized by the world The true ancestor of spaceflight; the American rocket scientist Herbert-S-Kim mentioned this story in the book "Rocket and Jet Engine" published in 1945. "

"At an International Astronomical Union in the 1970s, a crater on the moon was named Wanhu to commemorate the first person who tried to use a rocket to fly."

"Tao Chengdao's story is enough to prove that all Chinese people have the spirit of scientific fantasy and the courage to try." Shen Long pointed out the reason for telling this story, and the applause burst into applause.

"Today is the first time a writer from Asia has won the Hugo Award. In the words of Armstrong, this is a big step for me, and it is also a big step for world science fiction literature."

Shen Long applied Liu Cixin ’s acceptance speech, “For me, the Hugo Award is very far away. I never thought I would have a relationship with it; there is a ship between two distant cultural planets, Chinese and English. The spaceship connects them together, and that is the translator of the book, Mr. Ken Louis; he has an in-depth understanding of Eastern and Western cultures, and has made unremitting efforts for the translation of this book. In the future, he will continue to link my Works translated into English. "

"This work can be welcomed by readers outside of China and rewarded with the Hugo Awards. I am very happy, not only because I received the highest award in the science fiction literature, but also because science fiction has deepened humans of different cultures around the world. Understanding, if this understanding can be deepened, I think maybe one day, the entire humanity can be aggregated into a whole. "

"So, in the end, I sincerely invite you to take a look at China and bring your work to Chinese readers. Chinese readers who have been enthusiastic about Verne will also like your work, thank you!"

Shen Long bowed slightly, and thunderous applause rang from the audience, whether it was the story of Wanhu at the beginning, the cultural bridge built by science fiction, or the relationship between science fiction literature and human aggregation. We are very excited ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The big brothers of the World Science Fiction Association are also very excited, which means that they can use this opportunity to attract Chinese science fiction workers, although China is still very backward, but China has So many science fiction workers, so many readers, if they can succeed, this is definitely a great thing for him.

The editors of the science fiction magazine are equally excited. They feel that since Sun Shaoping's works can be loved by readers, and there are so many science fiction authors in China, perhaps their works can also be recognized by readers.

Not to mention science fiction writers. This is a super market with hundreds of millions of readers. Although it seems that China ’s protection of writers ’rights is not perfect today, it is always good to impress readers early.

"Mr. Sun, you are awesome!" Back at his seat, Yang Xiao blushed excitedly.

Xiao Xia just put down her camera. She has already thought about it. This speech must be published in the provincial newspaper and accompanied by a photo of everyone applauding. The Chinese in this era are really eager for world recognition and foreigners. Shen's respect, Shen Long has undoubtedly done this perfectly today.
