I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 687: “Time and Space Iron Curtain”
Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
I have to sigh the appeal of the technology of the future. I received 170,281 manuscripts in a week, which is almost equivalent to the number of classified libraries in some novel stations.
Of course, this may not be the appeal of future technology, but the credit of the one million dollar prize.
With such a horrible amount of text, it is certainly impossible to complete manual review within two weeks. But at this time, Jiang Chen's "secretary" could only get out.
For Jane, there is no essential difference between 170281 and 1.7281. Based on the computing power of quantum computers, it is only a momentary effort for her to scan through the tens of billions of words.
The only trouble is that she is only an intermediate artificial intelligence. Although she can think, she does not have human feelings.
Without feelings, she ca n’t read the beauty of words naturally, and she ca n’t do anything to get her to rate these works. All she can do is to screen these works like a filter according to the settings given by Jiang Chen.
Passing of works under 100,000 words is difficult, and the adaptation of short stories is too difficult, and the content is insufficient to support movies that are close to three hours.
Works with more than 1 million words are also passed away. Jiang Chen intends to shoot not movies but movies.
Furthermore, there are more than 50 grammatical errors, and there is a big logical contradiction. The BUG cannot be ignored and many other screening factors are taken into consideration. In the end, there are only a few thousand works left. Among them, it is inevitable that gold is mixed in the gravel and eliminated together, but in the thousands of works left, the gold content must be much higher.
The first round of selection took only 5 seconds, while the second round of selection took two full weeks!
Under the leadership of Christopher Nolan, the staff of Warner Bros. conducted a manual review of works in English. The works of the Chinese language are selected by the Future Group.
In order to make the selection fair and open, Warner Brothers also invited the World Science Fiction Association, the organizer of the Hugo Awards, to participate in the selection process. Of course, the opinions of the judges of the Hugo Awards are for reference only and do not directly affect the result of the selection of works.
After two weeks of selection.
Finally, under the spotlight, Futuristic Technology and Warner Bros. jointly announced the winners on the official website. All the winners will be reimbursed by Futuristic Technology for the ticket, go to Coro Island to attend the grand award ceremony, and sign a contract with Futuristic Technology on the spot.
After the award ceremony, Jiang Chen found Christopher.
A total of 10 works have been selected, and they still need to exchange opinions on the issue of determining which novel to ultimately adopt.
The entire event cost US $ 15 million to determine the script. In the future, such a generous move by Renren Technology could not help Mr. Nolan feeling pressured. So at the first meeting, he said.
"Just for the sake of momentum, is our investment too large?"
"But in terms of results, our harvest is gratifying, isn't it?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Christopher made a helpless expression, "I can't object to this alone."
In all future manuscripts of science and technology, not only the achievements of some emerging writers, but also some novels that have been on fire for a long time and have been voiced for adaptation. Obviously not just fans of science fiction films, the enthusiasm of science fiction authors for this public call for papers is also high.
The discussion started at the top of the list, and Jiang Chen chose to exchange ideas with Christopher one by one.
"How about Ian M. Banks'" Civilization "? The most famous space opera-style science fiction in the 1980s."
"The adaptation of the series of novels is too difficult." Christopher shrugged his head vetoly.
"What about" Dust in the Eyes of God "? The work of Larry Niven. The description of the first contact between humans and alien intelligent creatures is very interesting. The expedition of the test team is also very interesting. "If you encounter non-human intelligent creatures, you must assume that the other party is hostile." This point of view in the article is also very interesting. "
"This book is on my shortlist." Christopher smiled.
"Haha, can you tell me about the lucky ones on your shortlist?"
"In addition to this book, there is" Fire on the Abyss ". My brother Jonathan and I previously discussed the possibility of changing this sci-fi masterpiece, but the final conclusion was that it could not be shot."
"Can't shoot it?"
"Yes. Because the scale of the universe in the book is too large. Three worlds, countless races, even if you come to the light and magic industry, it is difficult to restore the essence of this work." After Jiang Chen, he asked with some anticipation, "Can the VR image production technology of Virtual Image Company do it?"
Hearing Christopher ’s question, Jiang Chen twitched.
"There is no problem in theory, but the three worlds ... this production cycle may be quite long."
Christopher also found out that his proposal was difficult for some strongman and could not help sighing.
"That's a shame ..."
But when he looked down the list, he found a strange name.
"" Time and Space Iron Curtain ", what is this thing?"
"Oh, this, I'm preparing to recommend this to you." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Author ... Li Ming?" Christopher frowned slightly, and he had never heard of the name.
Although the work was not restricted to the author ’s pen name when he selected the works, he still instinctively put on colored glasses for the author who had never heard of it.
However, Jiang Chen didn't care, and introduced the story of this book.
"This one is on my shortlist, although the two points of writing and character creation are slightly green, but the depth of thought unexpectedly has the level of a master, and some of the points in the text are also very interesting. The plot In terms of, the main thing is that in 2070, the world is half warm, and the earth ’s climate is no longer suitable for human survival. The International Astronautics launched a colonial ship called the frontier, which spread the fire of civilization to 600 light. Kepler 22b outside the year. "
"Because of the slow speed effect of the speed of light travel, when the Frontier reached Kepler 22b, the outside world had passed tens of thousands of years. And when they set foot on this strange land, they were on this planet. The aliens and the remains of the earth ’s civilization have been discovered. Various evidences indicate that some year after 2070, the International Aerospace Organization launched the second colonial ship. It ’s just that I do n’t know why, they are ahead of the time scale It has long since disappeared. "
"And whether the alien civilization on the planet is still in its infancy, whether it is the aboriginal creatures enlightened by the remains of the earth civilization, or the compatriots from the earth civilization itself, all this is not known. More interesting It ’s the back story. The conflict and the suspense are very well designed. I ’m still not spoiled. It ’s better to watch it yourself. ”
"Just listening to your quotation, this book is really interesting. But how did you choose this book from so many works?" Christopher Khan said.
"I didn't choose it, but my secretary recommended it to me." Jiang Chen replied.
This is where Jiang Chen is most confused.
What kind of logic is Jane who does not have feelings, aesthetics and other concepts before recommending this work to him? Jiang Chen had asked Jane, but Jane could not answer this question. She just used a very vague and humanized statement to respond to the owner's question-"Because, is it interesting?"
Although the subject matter is striking, it is not so outstanding. The brain hole about the concept of time is not a novel concept in the field of science fiction. Although it has been raised to the level of civilization, this point alone cannot give him too many points.
After reading this work, Jiang Chen had to admit that Jane did not lie to him, this work is indeed very interesting.
"It's too early to draw a conclusion. I'll go back and read this book first. I'll answer you tomorrow." Then, Christopher stood up and looked at Jiang Chen.
"I look forward to your good news." Jiang Chen smiled.
Christopher raised his eyebrows and teased.
"I'm always picky about scripts."
"Trust me, you will like it." (To be continued.)
