"Xiao He, see you later."
Mo Yan and the others patted He Qiushui on the shoulders and walked towards the bottom of the banner.
He Qiushui opened his mouth, wanting to say something in response but he didn't know what to say for the moment. The scene in front of him was too shocking.
Yu Dong and the others didn't have time to pay attention to He Qiushui at the moment. The scene in front of them was enough for them to cope with.
Fortunately, "Science Fiction World" sent a lot of people over this time, led by an old acquaintance, Xiao Li, with a total of seven or eight people.
As soon as Yu Dong and the others came out of the iron fence, Xiao Li led someone to block the crowd, and then led Yu Dong and the others out, letting them experience the feeling of a big star traveling.
The onlookers didn't give up and were still trying to catch me from behind.
Yu Dong looked at the crowd behind him and asked Xiao Li: "Why is there so much fanfare this time? Whose idea was it?"
Xiao Li said with a smile: "It was President Yang's idea. I heard that several teachers are also coming together, so I wanted to make it lively and let everyone feel the enthusiasm of the people in Chengdu."
Yu Dong curled his lips and looked at Mo Yan aside. Sure enough, this guy had a sad look on his face.
Yu Dong knew why he was worried.
The unit he transferred to was the Chengdu TV station. He originally planned to report directly to the TV station after coming here, but he changed his plan and wanted to follow Yu Dong and the others to Italy.
In this way, it would be difficult to publicize his coming to Chengdu.
Just imagine, if the leaders of Rongcheng TV station knew that Mo Yan passed through the unit door without entering, they would definitely have objections.
Yu Dong smiled and patted Mo Yan on the shoulder, "Now that it's here, make peace with it. Don't think too much."
"I know." Mo Yan nodded and forced out an ugly smile.
Surrounded by Xiao Li and other greeters, Yu Dong and the others went to the roadside and saw a row of about six or seven Santana 2000s parked on the roadside.
Yu Dong joked, "My dear, your company is rich now. These cars must cost a lot of money."
"Hehe, two of them belong to our club, and the others are borrowed from other places. Isn't this a conference to save face?" Xiao Li said with a smile.
"Two cars are enough."
The Santana 2000 just came out last year, and one car costs RMB 200,000. "Science Fiction World" is just a magazine, and being able to buy two of them shows on the one hand that they have good social benefits, and on the other hand, it also shows that the president, Yang Xiao, is very courageous.
"It's not as good as the Deep Space Company. I heard that the Deep Space Company has quite a few of these cars, and there are also tiger-headed cars." There was a trace of envy in Xiao Li's words.
"Compared with their private companies." Yu Dong smiled and helped Xiao Li assign Yu Hua and others to get into the car.
After arriving at the hotel, while Yu Dong and the others were still looking for a room, Yang Xiao and Tan Kai came over.
Seeing the two people in a hurry, Yu Dong couldn't help but joke: "I have been attending award ceremonies for so many years, and I have never seen you two so active. It seems that my face is still not as good as Yu Hua and the others.
It’s big.”
Hu Changqing also said: "Yes, I have to add mine."
"You two, please stop causing trouble." Yang Xiao waved his hands towards them, and then ran over to shake hands with Yu Hua and the others enthusiastically.
After shaking hands, he said a disgusting welcome speech, and then personally led them to find a room.
After that, Yang Xiao and Tan Kai didn't stay long. As organizers, they were indeed very busy. It was not easy to come to see Yu Dong and the others as soon as possible.
After Yang Xiao and the others left, everyone went back to their rooms, ready to rest for a while before getting together again.
But not long after Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu entered the room, there was a knock on the door.
Hearing the knock on the door, Yu Dong lay on the bed and shouted towards the door: "Who is it?"
Although he was sitting on a sleeper berth, the bed was very hard and the middle berth was small, making it really uncomfortable to sleep on. So as soon as he got to the hotel room and felt the softness of the bed, he didn't want to move.
Cheng Yanqiu was the same, lying next to him, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Yang Peng's voice sounded outside the door, "Brother, it's me, Yang Peng."
Hearing that it was Yang Peng, Yu Dong replied angrily, "You have the wrong person. I am not Yu Dong."
There was silence outside for a while, and then Yang Peng spoke again, "Brother, I recognize your voice, and I didn't say that my senior brother is Yu Dong."
Listening to Yang Peng's serious analysis, Yu Dong couldn't help but laugh, "Hey, this kid."
After patting Cheng Yanqiu, Yu Dong struggled to get up from the bed and opened the door for Yang Peng.
"Brother, I said it was you." Yang Peng was very happy to see Yu Dong. Then he saw Cheng Yanqiu in the room and felt a little embarrassed: "Sister-in-law is here too."
Cheng Yanqiu smiled and nodded, "Well, Xiao Yang is here, come in and have a cup of tea."
But Yu Dong said: "What kind of tea should I give him? We just arrived and there is no hot water."
"..."
Yu Dong thought for a moment and then said, "Don't you really like Yu Hua? Let me tell you, he lives in the same room as Mo Yan in 416. Next to him, in 417, Bi Feiyu and Secretary Hu live."
Sure enough, when he heard Yu Hua, Yang Peng's eyes lit up, "Then let me go and have a look? But I'm not familiar with Teacher Yu Hua either, so it wouldn't be good to go there directly."
"This is not easy. You first knock on the door of 417, find Secretary Hu, and then ask Secretary Hu to take you to 416." Yu Dong warned.
Yang Peng pondered for a while and nodded, "Okay, I'll try it. Then, senior brother and sister-in-law, I'll go over first."
After fooling Yang Peng away, Yu Dong returned to the room, found a pen and paper, drew an arrow on the paper, and then wrote under the arrow: If you need anything, please go to 416.
After he finished writing, he stuck the paper on the door with the arrow pointing in the direction of 416.
After doing all this, Yu Dong closed the door, and then he and Cheng Yanqiu lay on the bed, emptying their minds and cooking two cabbages in peace and mind.
…
More than two hours passed, and Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu's spirits recovered a lot.
He looked at the time and saw that it was already past five o'clock in the evening. It was almost the agreed time to get together. He got up, washed his face, and then opened the door. The note he posted before was still there.
No one knocked on the door for more than two hours. I don't know if the note worked or if no one really came.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After that, the couple ran to 416 to find Yu Hua. Before they reached the door, they heard loud noises coming from inside.
When they walked to the door and looked at the scene inside the room, the couple looked confused.
There must have been more than ten or twenty people in this room, and it was filled with smoke. Some of the people inside could not even be seen clearly in the misty smoke.
Cheng Yanqiu subconsciously took a step back because the smell of smoke was too strong.
No wonder they kept the door open. If the doors and windows were closed, the people inside would be suffocated.
Mo Yan saw Yu Dong and his wife first, smiled and said to the side: "You are looking for Yu Dong, aren't you here?"
Only then did Yu Dong clearly see Liu Cixin and Wang Jingkang sitting next to Mo Yan.
And behind Wang Jingkang and Liu Cixin, there were actually Cunningham and George Martin sitting.
Cunningham and Martin were the special guests at this award ceremony, and they were also invited through their relationship with the Deep Space Company. Yu Dong knew about it in advance, but he didn't expect that these two people would be in Yu Hua's room.
There was a table set up in the room, and Yu Hua and several veteran businessmen were playing poker around the table. Seeing Yu Dong coming, Yu Hua held the cigarette in his mouth in his hand and said angrily: "You do
If you know how to hide, a notice will drive them all to our place. If Bi Feiyu hadn't stopped you, I would have to tear off the paper on your door."
Yu Dong got an advantage, but he still wanted to behave: "I mainly know that it is you they want to see, so I gave them some guidance. I don't think the atmosphere between you two is quite harmonious?"
After finishing speaking, Yu Dong said hello to Martin and Cunningham in English.
After saying hello to Martin and the others, Yu Dong waved his hands and tried to disperse the smoke in front of his eyes, but his actions were in vain. The smoke could not be dispersed at all. The key was that Yu Hua and the others continued to smoke.
Create smoke.
Looking at the "wonderland"-like room, Yu Dong gave up the plan of going in and stood at the door and said, "It's getting late. Let's go to the restaurant. There are ready-made tables there and the place is big enough for people to spread out."
Gotta go."
Everyone else also agreed with this proposal.
Yu Hua and the others hadn't finished playing cards yet, but that didn't stop them from moving. The four of them each held the cards in their hands, and Wang Hailin helped keep the cards that had been played. In this way, everyone walked towards the restaurant.
After arriving at the restaurant, Yu Dong and the others found that many people had gathered in the restaurant.
They are all young people, about ten of them. Except for two girls, the others are all young men.
After Yu Dong and others entered, the group of people looked over one after another.
He Hongwei seemed to know them and greeted them with a smile, "You guys are here. It's still early for dinner."
One of them responded with a smile, "Teacher He, let's get together to chat. The room is too small, so we came to the restaurant."
When someone called He Hongwei and Teacher He, Wang Jingkang and others next to him were laughing.
No way, this feeling is really strange. After all, in their eyes, He Hongwei is just a young boy who has just graduated.
When Yu Dong and Hu Changqing met He Hongwei for the first time, he was just a sophomore.
But then again, He Hongwei has also been in the science fiction industry for five or six years, and he is doing pretty well. It seems that there is no problem for young people in the industry to call him Teacher He.
After Yu Dong and others sat down, Hu Changqing asked He Hongwei curiously, "Are all these young people here to attend this award ceremony?"
He Hongwei nodded, "Yes, they are all newcomers who have emerged in the past two years, and they have performed quite well. I think you have read some of their works, Secretary Hu. For example, the one who just talked to me, his pen name is Nanshou
."
Hard to collect...
Hearing this pen name, everyone looked at Hu Changqing with strange eyes. They all knew that Hu Changqing's pen name was Fushui.
It's hard to collect water if it's covered with water.
Although Yu Dong is quite busy, he still takes time to read "Science Fiction World", but he doesn't read much of it. He has never heard of this.
Hu Changqing had heard of it and suddenly said: "It turns out to be him. I have read the article "Dark Floating" written by him. It is a bit imitating "Snow Crash". Although it is an imitation, the quality is indeed very high."
"He is a fan of your book, Secretary Hu." He Hongwei said with a smile.
The muscles at the corner of Hu Changqing's mouth twitched, "It's a good pen name. Today's young people are very powerful and their future generations are formidable. Maybe in a few years, we people will be eliminated."
Yu Dong waved his hand quickly, "Secretary Hu, you can say this to yourself. At most, you can bring Lao Wang with you, but don't bring us. I am only in my early twenties and in my prime."
"Then your end is a bit too long..."
Yu Dong and the others were chatting with the young people at the table, and the young people at the table were also looking at them eagerly.
The Galaxy Awards Ceremony has become bigger and bigger and more brilliant in recent years.
In the early years, before Yu Dong attended the Galaxy Awards ceremony, the award ceremony was just a small event. A group of authors sat in a small room and handed out awards.
Starting from the science fiction conference in 1991, the award ceremony began to become lively. But in the first year that Yu Dong participated, there were not many authors present, because only the authors who were confirmed to win would receive invitations to the Galaxy Award, and there were
Some people were still unable to attend due to one or other reasons.
However, the situation changed later. Yang Xiao and the others also began to send invitation letters to authors who had not won the award. At first, due to limited funds, fewer invitation letters were sent out. After several years of development and having more money, this kind of invitation letters were
More and more invitations are being sent out.
In this way, no one knows whether they have won the award before the award ceremony begins. Unlike in the past, just receiving an invitation letter proved that they must have won the award.
Yu Dong and the others chatted for a while, and Wang Jingkang suddenly said: "Hong Wei, go and call them over and let's talk together. We all write science fiction, so more exchanges are a good thing. And I always think that
Science fiction is a world for young people, and young people have a stronger ability to accept new things and can better keep up with the times."
"Okay, I'll go tell them."
He Hongwei nodded, got up and walked over there, saying a few words to them. Then he saw the young people showing happy expressions, and they all stood up and walked over with He Hongwei.
"Hello teachers."
"Hello, don't be restrained. Come sit next to us and let's chat together." Wang Jingkang smiled and then introduced himself, "My name is Wang Jingkang."
"Hello, Teacher Wang!"
Hu Changqing was unhappy with Wang Jingkang's approach of only introducing himself, and curled his lips and said, "Can't you introduce us too?"
Wang Jingkang said with a smile, "I don't know you."
Hu Changqing shook his head and said: "My name is Hu Changqing, and my pen name is Fushui..."
Before the young people could say "Hello, Teacher Fu Shui", Hu Changqing continued: "This is Yang Peng, whose pen name is Zhengshi. This is Liu Cixin, this is Yu Dong, this is Martin, and this is Cunningham,
Who is this……"
Hu Changqing took the trouble to announce the names of Yu Dong and others, while the young people listened blankly.
After Hu Changqing introduced everyone on his side, the young people looked left and right, not knowing who to greet first.
