Wait, who said this story with no beginning or end is wonderful?
Ah, it turns out to be Jessica, the international student from the United States!
After her praise, international students from Europe, America and Neon also praised Jiang Yulou's story.
"Eh? Why don't I understand? Can classmate Jiang's science fiction story be called a story? What's wrong with these international students? Why are they all praising classmate Jiang?"
"Yes, I'm confused too. Is there something mysterious that I don't understand?"
"It's impossible. I counted it and the whole story only has twenty-five words. Have any of you ever seen a science fiction novel with twenty-five words?"
"How about we ask the teacher?"
The students of Yan University looked at the teacher and found that the teacher was also frowning and thinking. Obviously, like the students, he had not discovered the mystery.
The teacher in charge said, "Classmate Jiang, why don't you explain to everyone the story you told on stage."
Jiang Yulou stood up, scratched his head, and said with a slight smile: "Oh, if I explain it myself, I will be suspected of being a boaster. I'd better let the classmates who understand this science fiction story explain it."
Then he repeated it again in English.
In an instant, most of the international students raised their hands.
Jiang Yulou turned a blind eye to their raises of hands, but said to Jessica gently: "Jessica, are you willing to do this for me?"
"Me? Jiang, I'm afraid that if I don't speak well, I'll mess things up."
Jessica was obviously very excited just now, but now she is timid.
"It's okay, you can do it, believe in yourself, just tell me your understanding of this science fiction story."
With Jiang Yulou’s encouragement, Jessica stood up and plucked up the courage to say: “I just heard some classmates say that Jiang’s story is incomplete and can hardly be called a novel. I don’t think this is right. "
"How could it be? This science fiction story really cannot be called a novel."
"Yeah, didn't you expect that international students also have filters?"
"Haha, classmate Jiang made friends with international students in just over half an hour. I admire you."
"Alas, this matter was not done well."
"I asked why Jiang Yulou asked foreigners to interpret his novels."
Jessica was a little nervous when she saw some fierce crowds, but when she saw that Jiang Yulou was still encouraging her, her nervousness calmed down a lot.
Her eyes became firm again, and she answered everyone's questions sonorously and forcefully:
"Although Jiang's science fiction novel only has one sentence, it is enough to be called a novel because it has the three elements of a novel: characters, plot, and environment!"
“Characters: The last person;
Plot: A man was sitting alone and heard a knock on the door;
Environment: In a room on Earth.
Therefore, this is enough to be called a qualified novel.
In addition to exaggerated expressions and free and vast space, science fiction also has suspense. This novel has done enough in these aspects. "
Ah, so that’s it.
People who didn't understand this novel at first suddenly understood it.
Their originally sarcastic, mocking, and regretful expressions changed, and they became ashamed, and even did not dare to see Jiang Yulou.
There is only one person left on earth, why? Where did everyone else go? Are they all dead or have they immigrated to alien planets? What happened on earth? Lots of suspense!
Since there is only one person on earth, why would he hear a knock on the door? Who's knocking on the door? Humanity? animal? alien? Higher intelligent life?
Will he open the door? What happens when you open the door? Will the last person on earth be lost when the door opens? What will happen next? How does the story end?
They couldn't help but recall this science fiction story. Sure enough, there were countless possibilities!
It turns out that a novel with only twenty-five words can be so exciting.
"It's great. This novel is a hundred times better than the bullshit science fiction novels I saw in the United States!" Jessica's classmate, an international student also from the United States, applauded wildly and was not stingy with his appreciation.
"This science fiction story deserves a Nebula Award!" An international student stood up and said exaggeratedly: "Jiang, your novel should be published in the United States, so that more people can see this wonderful novel!"
"Oh my gosh, I vaguely saw the birth of a science fiction giant!"
“What a wild imagination!”
"Before coming to China, they said that this place is a science fiction desert. If I have the chance, I must tell them that this is a wrong view. China has real science fiction geniuses!"
The students were stunned, the teacher was stunned, everyone was stunned.
Oh my god, are these international students crazy? They flatter Jiang Yulou as if they were free of charge.
He was fine, but the teacher in charge was already dizzy.
Originally, he just wanted to punish Jiang Yulou for his unscrupulous remarks, but unexpectedly, he succeeded?
He didn't understand why such a scene happened.
It is normal for the teachers in charge and the local students at Yanda University not to understand, because there are very few science fiction themes in China, and for a long time, it was equivalent to being artificially shelved.
There are no science fiction novelists, and there is no soil for science fiction novels. Naturally, the common people will not be able to read science fiction novels.
Without such novels, there is no way to talk about hobbies.
But it is different abroad. The genre of science fiction has already had a huge audience abroad.
The foreign students here today all have good reading comprehension, and most of them are from developed countries. Most of them have spare money and can afford novels, and science fiction novels are also within their reading range.
Although Jiang Yulou's science fiction novel has a small number of words, it has a lot of science fiction elements and is of very high quality. As one international student said, if it were published in the United States, it would be enough to compete for the Nebula Award.
These people had never been exposed to science fiction novels from China before, and they were deeply impressed by Jiang Yulou, a talented writer.
"Is Mr. Jiang really omnipotent? Why can any science fiction story he makes up make those international students so excited?"
"Maybe this is genius. We ordinary people can't imagine it, but it is not difficult for geniuses."
"What exactly is the Nebula Award that an international student mentioned just now? Does anyone know?"
"Can classmate Jiang really win the prize? It's impossible, that's what they said..."
"I can't say for sure. I think classmate Jiang is going to become famous again, and this time he may become famous internationally..."
"hiss……"
The discussions and concerns of many students below did not make any change in Jiang Yulou's expression. No matter what time, he was so calm and calm, which made the students of Yan University have a feeling of admiration for him.
In fact, Jiang Yulou was extremely happy.
