Subtitle of this chapter: Evil organization with celebrities gathering

…………………………………………………

No matter how bad Xu Zhimo's performance in private morality is or how chaotic his private life is, he does have the temperament of a poet and his behavior is like a child.

So on the original historical line, a group of celebrities from the academic and cultural circles were handed over to the UK, and on this timeline, because of Yuan Yanshu, he was even more popular.

"That's great, I'm not late!"

Just when the three of them were about to enter the door, another middle-aged gentleman came.

He was a little older, but he still had bright eyes and thick eyebrows, and a thick beard on his lips, which looked quite energetic.

Ogden turned around and shouted happily: "Mr. Wells, you are here too!"

Xu Zhimo also nodded and greeted: "Mr. Wells, I'm glad to see you again."

Herbert George Wells is a real celebrity.

The three most important science fiction writers at the end of the 19th century were Allan Poe of the United States, Verne of France and Wells of Britain.

Although he lived until 1946, his most important science fiction works, "The Time Machine", "Dr. Molo Island", "The Invisible Man" and "World Wars" were all published 1900 years ago.

He was born in a poor family in the West End of London in 1866, and his parents worked as servants. Therefore, his life was quite difficult when he was a child, and he worked as an apprentice in a cloth shop, an assistant to a pharmacist and a substitute teacher in elementary school.

However, thanks to his diligence and intelligence, in 1884 he received a scholarship (one Gini per week) and entered the Kantinton Science Normal School, the predecessor of the Royal Academy of Sciences. Among them, his biology teacher was Thomas Henry Huxley, a famous evolutionary scientist. Therefore, his later science fiction novel writing was greatly influenced by Huxley's evolutionary ideas.

In 1890, he received a Bachelor of Science degree from Imperial College London with outstanding zoology.

His youthful experience made him a utopian socialist. In 1903, he joined the "Fabian Society" and became good friends with Bernard Shaw.

However, this guy was a very "moderate" social reformist. Not to mention Marxism, he couldn't even accept the already rather moderate Fabianism, so he later withdrew.

During World War I, Wells participated in League of Nations activities and visited countries. His interview articles often caused a global sensation. Last year, he also interviewed Comrade Lenin.

After World War I, he spent a year completing the "Outline of History" of more than 1 million words and published it last year. This book shows his side as a historian.

When this book "Outline of World History" was translated into Chinese in 1926, it was definitely a grand event in the academic circle of Seris. Participated in the compilation were Liang Qichao, Liang Sicheng, Zhu Kezhen, Zhu Jingnong and other first-class experts and scholars at that time. The translation of the Chinese translation was exquisite, and the words were clear and smooth, which was comparable to the original book.

Of course, now that we have our Master Yuan, the "humanoid translator", we don't have to bother these masters.

Although Wells is nearly thirty years older than Xu Zhimo, he likes this young Chinese very much. The two also plan to translate modern Chinese novels together.

As a science fiction writer, Wells appreciates Neo Yuan, whom he has never met. Because of these two reasons, he came to this cultural salon with Master Yuan, which was themed by the "Little People".

"Dou,Dou,Dou!"

Before they could enter the door, another car came.

This time, the one who got off the car was a British gentleman that Master Yuan knew.

As soon as he saw this handsome man under 40 years old, Xu Zhimo showed an excited expression on his face and greeted enthusiastically: "Mr. Kaihensi, it's great. We're meeting again!"

Xu Zhimo admired this new guest very much, especially his "fearless righteous spirit of resistance to the world". He also wrote an introductory article entitled "Kaihensi", calling him a representative of British national political genius.

This is also the first Chinese article about this genius...

After Mr. Kaihensi, another sinologist, Arthur Waley, a poet, Laurence Binyon, and a painter, Roger Fry.

These three are all members of the Evil Society and are also friends Xu Zhimo has met during this period.

Let me give a brief introduction. Wei Lei and Bian Yin are both scholars working in the British Museum. The former is a subordinate of the latter. Wei Lei has a very high opinion of Xu Zhimo, calling him "a wealth that China gave us to Britain after the war."

Fu Laiyi was one of the greatest art critics of the 20th century. He was once a master of appraisal in the top European collection circle. Later, his interest turned to modern art and became the narrator and main interpreter of the Post-Impressionist painting movement. His knowledge of Chinese painting, calligraphy and seal carving all came from Xu Zhimo.

While these people were eating a buffet in the living room, the door was knocked again, but this time the guest led by the hostess was a Cyris.

"Chan, you're late!" Willis said in a reproachful tone.

The young man, who is elegant and elegant in his face and is only twenty-five or twenty-six years old, smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Herbert...and everyone."

Chen and Willis are good friends, and it was this Chinese who introduced Willis to Xu Zhimo. He also brought Xu Zhimo into this very high-end circle.

At this time, Xu Zhimo also spoke in Chinese and asked, "Tongbo, how come it was late?"

This man's surname is Chen, his name is Yuan, and his courtesy name is Tongbo. He came to study in the UK in 1912, first at the University of Edinburgh and then at the University of Political Science and Economics in London.

Speaking of which, he is also our Wuxi fellow townsman of Master Yuan, and his cousin of Wu Zhihui, a famous scholar in the Republic of China.

Of course, the pseudonym he will use in the future is even more famous.

Of course, the cuckold he wears in the future is also very famous.

"Friends, you should not blame me, but thank me. I brought you the latest issue of Atlantic Magazine."

He distributed the magazines in his hand to everyone and said, "This is published on it Mr. Yuan...Dr. Yuan's latest novel "Rural Teachers"!"

"Oh, is it the science fiction novel that Mr. Einstein read three times in one go?" Willis's interest increased greatly, and he immediately grabbed a copy and started reading it.

Of course, these celebrities in the cultural circle were also very curious about this "Rural Teacher". After receiving the "Atlantic Magazine", they didn't care about dining and were like Willis to study.

Seeing this situation, Xu Zhimo felt a sense of pride.

Of course he knew that everyone here was a scholar and writer with high level, and these great writers were so looking forward to an English novel written by a Cialis. As a Cialis, he was also honored.
