Chapter 427 Award Ceremony

When sunspots and trolls are carnival.

One of the shortlisted works for the Hugo Award for Best Novel, Marco Claus, the author of "The Separation Line", that is, the sci-fi writer who raved about "The Three-Body Problem", suddenly posted a tweet.

"Honestly, I can't think of a work that I want to see more on the shortlist than The Three-Body Problem. Best of luck to His Holiness!"

This tweet was posted inexplicably, and many people were confused.

Didn't "Three-Body Problem" lose the election?What does this tweet actually mean?
Subsequently, the committee of the Hugo Awards released a message on the official website.

"Because the author of "The Separation Line" Marco Claus withdrew from the selection, the alternate "Three-Body Problem" entered the shortlist."

This tweet and a message confused everyone.

"Separation Line" unexpectedly withdrew from the selection?Give the quota to "Three-Body Problem" for nothing!
Countless people asked if Marco Klaus had any hidden secrets.

Marco Klaus explains.

First of all, he loves the science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem" very much.

Then, he was very dissatisfied with the malicious manipulation of votes by Bad Dog and Mad Dog to get "Three-Body" out, so he angrily withdrew from the selection of the best novel.

Everyone suddenly realized that there was nothing hidden in the middle, it was purely because Marco Klaus liked "The Three-Body Problem" so much.

When the news spread back to China, the sunspots and trolls were stunned.

What's up with this Nima?
Because of the withdrawal of a sci-fi writer, "The Three-Body Problem" was abruptly squeezed into the shortlist!

How much does that writer love "Three-Body Problem"?They don't even want the nominations.

This is too dramatic...

When Jiang Shengli heard the news, he was too shocked to say a word for a long time.

However, he soon regained his senses, pondered for a long time, and posted a Weibo.

"It's amazing, I don't know how much money was given to Marco, and he actually made him give up the selection.

Seeing so many ecstatic people, I just want to ask - do you still have national shame?

A quota of charity from others made you all excited? "

This Weibo can be described as extremely yin and yang.

Immediately won the praise of Heizi and trolls.

"Hehe, are you so happy to be given alms?"

"One nomination is the climax, can you stop being so inferior?"

"A cat or a dog can be shortlisted, and this Hugo Award is also rubbish."

"Being shortlisted doesn't mean winning. Seeing their ecstatic looks, I thought they won, which is funny."

"..."

Because this spot was given up by Marco, Heizi got the spot again.

On the other side, at Qianwen Publishing Company, Li Feng found the busy Du Long.

"Great! "The Three-Body Problem" was shortlisted for the Hugo Award, which is considered a breakthrough..." Du Long laughed from ear to ear.

"Why are you so happy?" Li Feng asked.

"Of course it's funny. Once shortlisted for the Hugo Award, it will definitely drive a wave of sales. This is a lot of money."

Du Long laughed and said, "Besides, he can slap Heizi hard in the face."

"In two days, you should go to Washington." Li Feng said.

"Ah? What am I going to Washington for?" Du Long was slightly taken aback.

"Of course I'm going to receive the award. It's not convenient for me to show up. Please help me lead it." Li Feng said.

"Receive...receive the award? What kind of award?"

"Of course it's the Hugo Award. Otherwise, will it be awarded to Air?" Li Feng rolled his eyes.

"..."

Du Long swallowed, and said in a daze, "Mr. Li, do you really think that "Three-Body Problem" can win the Hugo Award? It's already so difficult to be shortlisted..."

"When you go, you go. If you don't win an award, you have the right to travel." Li Feng said lightly.

"All right……"

Du Long wiped the sweat from his forehead.

To be honest, "Three-Body Problem" won the Hugo Award for Best Novel, something he never even dared to think about.

Now that Li Feng asked him to go to Washington to receive the award, he couldn't help but feel a little ecstatic...

Two days later, Dulong set off for Washington to attend the Hugo Award Ceremony, representing the author of "The Three-Body Problem" "The Venerable".

This awards ceremony has attracted much attention, and countless people are paying attention to one result——

Which science fiction novel will be the best novel?
……

World Science Fiction Convention, today is the day to announce the Hugo Awards.

Li Feng suddenly received a message from Jiang Shengli and asked him to go to Shengli Publishing House for tea.

"Hehe, this old bastard must want to ridicule me to his heart's content." Li Feng sneered.

Jiang Shengli must have felt that it was impossible for "Three-Body Problem" to win the Hugo Award.

Li Feng immediately went to Shengli Publishing House and met Jiang Shengli and Feng Yunzheng in the office.

"Oh, our great writer is here, please sit down quickly, what tea do you want?"

Jiang Shengli smiled strangely.

"I'll just drink plain water." Li Feng said lightly.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Pour plain water to Writer Li." Jiang Shengli glared at Feng Yunzheng.

"Oh oh."

Feng Yunzheng quickly took a glass of water, a cup of steaming boiling water, and said with a smile, "Writer Li, this is the white water you want, drink it while it's hot."

This cup of hot water is at least over 90 degrees, and it feels hot even to the touch, so it must not be drinkable.

However, Li Feng picked up the cup directly, without fear of the scalding hot water, and finished drinking it with a gurgle.

His complexion was as usual, just like drinking cold water.

"Fuck me..."

Jiang Shengli and Feng Yunzheng looked at each other, what kind of body is this guy?Even dare to drink Nima boiled water!

"Editor-in-Chief Jiang invited me over for more than tea, right?" Li Feng said lightly.

"Of course it's not just about drinking tea. The great writer's "Three-Body Problem" has been shortlisted for the Hugo Award. Today is the day to announce it. You should pay attention to it anyway, what do you think?"

Jiang Shengli smiled and said with a half-smile.

With that said, Feng Yunzheng turned on the webcast and saw the Hugo Awards presentation.

"Okay, then let's watch together." Li Feng sneered.

It's really interesting, since Jiang Shengli and Feng Yunzheng brought their faces closer and forced him to hit him, then he will not be polite.

"In my opinion, with the quality of "Three-Body Problem", those science fiction novels can be instantly killed to the point where there is no scum left."

Feng Yunzheng said in a strange way.

"Don't be weird, since Weibo has posted articles, is it interesting to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail? If you have something to say, just fart."

Li Feng glanced at Jiang Shengli and asked bluntly.

"Hehe, of course it's interesting, look how interesting it is."

Jiang Shengli sneered: "Wait a minute, the best novel is out, I want to see your expression, it must be very exciting."

"Coincidentally, I also want to see what kind of expression you have." Li Feng sneered.

At this moment, the award ceremony of the Hugo Awards in the webcast began.
