reborn in america

Costa is a professor at the university. On Thanksgiving Day, it is reasonable to say that the wife at home must prepare a sumptuous dish as traditionally, and then the family reunite, chat and play.

But this year, because of an accident, this tradition was broken. My son is a fan of science fiction, because Jurassic Park fell into Adam’s pit, and then turned into a fanatical wizard fan. There are even several sets of officially sold wizards at home. Clothes and other peripherals are countless, so naturally after knowing the release time of Adam's new book, I began to look forward to it early.

And he and the older otaku's son, Turnaben, didn't have much to say, so that's all. As a result, his daughter and son-in-law didn't know when they fell into Adam's pit, so they originally wanted to have a good family gathering and chat, but several people were worried about it. Adam's new book is about to be released, and they are all in a trance, so they can only wave their hands to drive them back, so as not to be an eyesore.

In fact, it’s not that he hates Adam. Relatively speaking, Adam’s novels are rare in science fiction and fantasy novels that he can accept. At least the writing is exquisite, the plot structure is also rigorous, and the characterization can be regarded as vivid, which is better than most novels on the market. The novels are much better, especially the "Colonies", even he can't help but read it once or twice, but Adam's novels are still reading for him after all, maybe he can read them when he is bored, but reading After finishing it, I forget that there is no place to think and study.

But seeing several people in the family rushing to his son's study one after another, waiting around the computer for the release of the new book, and leaving him out in the cold, I felt a little uncomfortable.

Thinking that there are no other arrangements anyway, it is good to pass the time, and the family does not have much intersection in daily life, except for greeting some trivial matters in life, there is nothing to say, so I use Adam's novel as a topic of chat It was not bad, so I went back to my study and entered the so-called blog.

In fact, it was not that Costa paid special attention to the news of Adam's new book, so he knew that the new book was published on this so-called blog, but that Adam used him to release the new book to promote the website of blog, and made a lot of advertisements, including multiple copies of the California Times. Authoritative newspapers, PD TV stations, and of course online advertisements cover all aspects.

Relying on the first-mover advantage, Adam’s owners Eden, Unicorn and ICQ are Internet giants, so now more than 90.00% of people who go online will come into contact with Adam’s products, and naturally receive information about Adam’s new work and blog. The Internet products promoted by Adam with all his strength.

And in order to convert ordinary users who are curious about advertisements into blog users as much as possible, Adam also has simple and convenient registration and other aspects. Because Costa needs to use ICQ to contact other professors, he naturally has an account of the Adam department, so Registering a blog is also very convenient, and as soon as he enters the blog, there are huge recommendations directly on the homepage. He doesn't need to search for Adam's account at all, just click and enter.

Because it took some time, Adam's new book had been released for a while when he entered, which saved him the waiting time, and he clicked on the official chapter of the release with curiosity and the idea of ​​killing time.

To be honest, he doesn’t have much hope for Adam’s new book, because his children are always clamoring that the sequel to The Witcher will come out. Adam’s new book will be a gossip about the Witcher, which has been directly denied by the government. The sequel to his fantasy novel, he would rather go back and make a cup of coffee and flip through the old books in the study.

But when he finished reading the first paragraph, he sat upright, because this paragraph alone made him feel that this novel had a different texture from the previous ones.

Sure enough, after reading the prologue, he took a deep breath. This is a non-Adam-style novel. The heavy sense of history, the absurd yet true story plot, made him, a professor of history, I felt the excitement when I first started to study history deeply.

This is a brand new world deeply created by Adam, and this book takes readers into that fantasy world, allowing readers to experience a legendary history with him.

As a history professor who has studied history for decades, the plot of the novel is secondary. The horror society of the dinosaur era revealed some similarities with the real history and civilized races from various places and corners. What he read was interesting. rampant.

He even sometimes stopped when he saw a certain plot passage, and dug out the history and cultural traditions of a certain country he stored in his study to confirm, and felt full of joy after confirming the similarity between the two If you can't think of finding that period of history that can be used as a confirmation of the background and plot in the book, you will think hard, with a sad face, and even pick up the phone from time to time to call those professors you know who specialize in the history of certain countries to inquire. , Of course, I also recommended the novel I was reading when I asked. If I met a professor who had participated in the textual research on the background of Adam’s novel, I would even ask the bottom line. Which country’s history does the background setting in the story belong to.

When he finished reading the forty to fifty thousand words, and finished his research, he turned around and found that it was already dark outside, and his son, daughter and son-in-law, whom he complained about leaving him to go to the study to read novels, returned one step earlier than him. When they arrived at the living room, they were chatting with each other about daily chores while waiting for him.

Seeing that it was getting late, he tidied up and entered the living room. The family officially started Thanksgiving dinner.

After the dinner, a few people sat around and chatted a little bit. Costa actually mentioned Adam’s newly released novel "The Age of Dinosaurs" before several young people. The novel is a bit disappointing, because it is not the sequel to the wizard he wanted, but the content is not bad, barely acceptable, and because the daughter and son-in-law fell into the trap of science fiction, the favorite is "The Colony", which is more textured for this book Naturally, the novel does not have a big acceptance threshold, and of course their reaction is naturally inferior to that of Costa who is immersed in this novel.

Therefore, Costa popularized the relevant history related to the background of the novel to several people. I have to say that Costa is a history professor after all. He is a treasured number of historical knowledge of various countries. Combining the novel with the novel makes several literature Laymen in history are also very interested, and even interrupt from time to time to ask about specific historical developments.

However, after Costa's popularization of science, several people had the idea of ​​reading the novel a few more times, and their daughter Nicole also suggested that the father write down his findings and post them on the blog, so that other Adams Fans of the novel, let’s popularize the science. Costa, who has just entered the pit, is naturally all right, not to mention that he also wants to find someone to discuss with him. After all, there are still many things that even he has not figured out.

……

With the help of Adam's new book and a lot of publicity in the early stage, the number of registered bloggers in a single day has exceeded one million, and more than 10 of them have published their first articles. It is conceivable that when other authors and stars enter the blog, the blog will continue to There will be another wave of registrations, and there is no doubt about the success of this site.

Adam once again proved to Wall Street that he has control over the Internet, and Wall Street naturally responded immediately, showing their confidence in Adam—Eden’s stock price rose again on Monday of the second week, and Eden’s market value exceeded [-] for the first time in history. billion, becoming another super giant with a market value of [-] billion.

The author has something to say: Because I have to go out on weekends, I posted it without much modification after writing. The writing is a bit rough, please forgive me.

This volume is coming to an end, and the last volume will be opened at the end of this month. Because the content of the last volume involves political rights, it will be abbreviated to avoid harmonization, so the number of chapters will not be many, let me make a preview first.
