Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 822 Yellow Card Man and Calorie Man
The Nebula Awards Ceremony has to walk on the red carpet. Zhang Zhong still remembers that when he participated in the first year, the partner who walked the red carpet with him was Penny Austin.

This year, the organizing committee originally wanted Zhang Zhong to go with Penny Austin, because Penny Austin is a well-known beauty in the science fiction world, and Zhang Zhong is a handsome young man.

Handsome guys and beautiful women together will always attract the attention of the audience.

But Zhang Zhong tactfully refused, since Feng He is coming this year, he might as well just let the two of them go together.

Since he said so, of course the organizing committee would not object, so they arranged for the two of them to be together.

Looking at the long red carpet, Feng He smiled at the camera, and then whispered to Zhang Zhong next to him, "I have participated in many awards, and this is the first time I have participated in such a lively event, like a film festival .”

"You have to get used to it, maybe you will be a frequent visitor to the Nebula Awards in the future." Zhang Chong said with a smile.

"Then I will accept your good words."

……

China Minsheng Video Network is the strategic partner of Nebula Awards in China, and China Minsheng has been responsible for the live broadcast of the award ceremonies in recent years.

At this time, in the live broadcast room of the Xingyun Awards Ceremony of China Minsheng Video Network, the host Hu Gang introduced with a smile, "The ones appearing in the video are our Huaxia delegation. Although everyone knows these two, I still want to Let me introduce, the one on the left is Zhang Zhong. There are three shortlisted works this year, namely the novel "A Clockwork Girl" and two short stories "Calorie Man" and "Yellow Card Man". The one next to Zhang Zhong is Feng He, he was shortlisted for a work this year, the novella "The Far Side of the Earth". Feng He is also the second writer in China to have a work shortlisted for the Nebula Award after Zhang Zhong."

After a brief introduction, Hu Gang said to the two people next to him, "Mr. Li, Mr. Huang, this year's Nebula Award is of great significance to the Chinese science fiction community, because this is the first time that two Chinese writers have been shortlisted for the Nebula Award."

Li Qin and Hu Gang are old partners, and he explained the live broadcast of the previous Nebula Awards Ceremony.

He smiled and said, "Yes, it can be said that this session is the same as the previous year's session. It is a milestone in our Chinese science fiction field. It is worth mentioning that at this time last year, Teacher Fenghe was sitting with the two of us on the live broadcast. Well, I didn’t expect him to appear at the award ceremony this year.”

Newcomer Huang Lei smiled and said, "I also want to thank Teacher Feng for attending the award ceremony this year, otherwise I would not have had the opportunity to cooperate with the two teachers."

Many people who watched the live broadcast heard Li Qin's conversation and remembered that Feng He had been commenting on the scene of the Nebula Award Ceremony before.

[I'll go, I said why Fenghe looks so familiar, it turned out that he had commented on the previous two award ceremonies. 】

[Is Feng Da so invisible?He was already quite famous in the science fiction world before the commentary. 】

[Well, he was already well-known at that time, but he has become more famous in the past two years. After this Nebula Award, he should be able to reach a higher level. 】

[If you can win an award, wouldn't you be happy? 】

[I feel that watching the Nebula Awards now, everyone is full of confidence, and it feels good to be covered by a big boss. 】

[That is, because of Zhang Zhong, China has almost become a big Xingyun Award-winning country in the past two years. 】

……

"Mr. Huang, you are a senior worker in the science fiction field. Do you have any predictions for this year's Nebula Awards?" Hu Gang asked.

Huang Lei is new here, so of course he has to show a lot. He nodded and said, "Zhang Zhong's results should be more predictable. If there is no accident, "A Clockwork Girl" will definitely win the novel award, and the short story award will be in "Yellow Card Man". and "Calorie Man". I personally like "Yellow Card Man" more, and I vote for "Yellow Card Man". As for Fenghe, several works shortlisted for this year's Novella Award It's quite impressive, among them is Penny Austin, who is a frequent visitor to the Nebula Awards, and her work "Green Soil" is selling very well in Europe and America. Besides her, another strong opponent is Sokoya, who is It was a big hit for the Xingyun Award for Novel the year before last, but lost to Zhang Zhong at that time."

"It seems that Mr. Huang has great confidence in Zhang Zhong, but we still need to wait and see the result of the short story award." Hu Gang concluded with a smile, and then asked Li Qin, "Mr. Li, do you have the same opinion as Mr. Huang?" ?”

"Probably about the same, but the difference is that my vote is for "Calorie Man". Although it is also a side story, the novel "Calorie Man" is more complete in terms of plot and setting, while "Yellow Card Man" "Revealed too little information, as an independent work to participate in the award, there are inherent shortcomings." Li Qin said.

"I still think "Yellow Card Man" is better. I don't agree with Mr. Li's disclosure of too little information. Mr. Li presupposes a position and treats "Yellow Card Man" as a side story from the beginning. After watching, I came to this conclusion. In fact, when "A Clockwork Girl" didn't come out, we could understand "Yellow Card Man" without too much information missing. And readers When reading, it is not necessary to understand everything in it, as long as the core content is fully expressed." Huang Lei immediately retorted.

"The core point of the world of "A Clockwork Girl" is the setting of calories, so the novel "The Calorie Man" directly points to this world..."

The commentators were tit-for-tat, and the host next to him didn't intend to persuade the fight at all, because this was the effect of the show.

In the current network environment, honest explanations are not enough, and something must be done differently.

Sure enough, seeing the commentary arguing, the comments in the barrage also started arguing with each other. Some people liked "Calorie Man", so they supported Li Qin.Some people like "Yellow Card Man" and support Huang Lei.

The commentators are not arguing all the time, they can argue while explaining.

Li Qin: "Several important characters in Calorie represent many things. Among them... oh, Sokoya and Frick are coming over now. These two are frequent visitors of the Nebula Award, and Sokoya once won Two Nebula Awards and one Hugo Award...Obviously, Calorie's world is wider."

Huang Lei: "Frick didn't publish any works last year, and only one short story was shortlisted this year. Judging by his expression, there should be no psychological pressure. After all, short stories have never received much attention, and Zhang Zhong has been shortlisted for two short stories this year. For novels, Frick is less likely to win the award...and when it comes to yellow card people and calorie people..."
