Chapter 12: Kuala Lumpur Past and Submission
Samad's strong extremist temperament made Chen Yuanguang wary.

Judging from his identity alone, Samad doesn't look like a loser. It can only be said that the path he believes in is inconsistent with the reality led by Alpha.

Chen Yuanguang could roughly understand the core of Samad's words. Human beings are too restricted and have no room for imagination, so they lose the motivation to move forward.

As a time traveler who can travel back and forth between the two worlds, Chen Yuanguang is not too worried about this problem. There are plenty of ways to experience life experiences in modern society that he cannot experience in the future.

Therefore, Chen Yuanguang would also talk about these things with Samad later, but most of the time he just listened to what the other person said, as he did not like to express his opinions.

After reading some futuristic science fiction and mystery works, some of which were written by AI and some by real people, they were all recommended to him by Samad.

Chen Yuanguang processed what happened to him in a literary way and wrote "Kuala Lumpur Detective".

"The writing has no charm, the emotions can barely be considered delicate, but the characters are too dry. The most important reasoning technique in science fiction mystery works can only be said to be logically self-consistent, and there is no novelty at all. Yuanguang, to be honest, I think it is not as good as AI." Samad sighed.

Samad could see that this rare friend of his, with whom he had a chance to chat, did not have much talent in literary creation.

In this era, if you want to become famous through literary creation, what you need to consider is not defeating your competitors, but defeating AI, which requires very high talent. Samad believes that Chen Yuanguang obviously does not have this level of talent.

They had discussed this work many times, and Samad knew at a glance that this was a change from a real case, but since Chen Yuanguang didn't tell him, he pretended not to know.

After revising it many times, I finally got this evaluation from Samad.

Chen Yuanguang thought, this is enough. He was originally brought to Hyundai to participate in the Science Fiction Rising Star Competition, and the Science Fiction Rising Star Competition determined that the participants would not be big names.

For Samad, logical consistency would have been full of novelty and a perfect logical loop four hundred years ago.

It would be a piece of cake to take it back and participate in the Science Fiction Rising Star Competition.

With this idea in mind, he logged onto the official website of Science Fiction World to submit his work and randomly gave himself a pen name of 2477, which was the year in the future converted according to the old calendar.

After submitting the manuscript, all Chen Yuanguang had to do was wait, prepare for the preparatory exams required to study abroad in modern time and space, and work on the topics assigned to him by Pangu in the future.

He had no idea about the topic, and Chen Yuanguang didn't dare to discuss it with professors in related fields at the school. This kind of topic was equivalent to a path to prove his truth, and what if the discussion with the professor was directly used by the other party and the results were produced first?
Therefore, in the future, he will read a lot of literature around the topic and use computers to simulate some results to find ideas.

Chen Yuanguang felt that he had never felt so fulfilled.

He originally thought that his senior year would be extremely leisurely. He would write 20 words every day to satisfy his readers, and the remaining 20 hours would all belong to him. He would have completed all the courses he was supposed to take and had hours to have fun.

As a result, his entire 24 hours were fully scheduled.

Fang Ning is an editor at Science Fiction World. He joined Science Fiction World magazine after graduating from university and is also the preliminary judge for this Science Fiction Rising Star Competition.

"These are the last few days, and it's finally coming to an end." Fang Ning opened the backend of the official website. He didn't have too many expectations for the submissions in the next few days.

Because this is the 10th Science Fiction Rising Star Competition, they have poured a lot of resources into it. The prize money for the first prize alone is as high as 50,000 yuan. You should know that the prize money for the Galaxy Award for Best Novel is only 100,000 yuan.

So there are a lot of submissions, and as an editor, Fang Ning has to deal with both daily submissions and submissions for the Science Fiction Rising Star Contest. He has been working intensively for a long time.

"A Gift from God"

"The Last Architect" "Light Years War"

Fang Ning felt that the square characters were about to occupy his entire brain. Looking at the screen, the characters were connected into one piece and he almost couldn't recognize them.

"Huh." Fang Ning got up and went outside to make a cup of coffee and breathe in some fresh air. The smog in Shudu seemed especially sweet.

"One, two, three, four." Fang Ning counted the manuscripts in the backstage, "There are only five left. Fortunately, it's not bad."

"Kuala Lumpur Past, 2477", Fang Ning saw the title and the author's name and thought, "Another obscure title and a pseudonym thought up by a pretentious person."

"Mr. Lin, do you know that there was a car accident on the winding mountain road outside the Jile Temple recently?"

This science fiction mystery novel written by Chen Yuanguang begins with Lin Ran being interrogated by the police, and finally the real murderer is discovered through a detective named Li Zhongliu.

Fang Ning quickly immersed himself in the story, and after finishing it, he was still thinking about it, "What was Lin Ran's final outcome? What was the fate of the director who led all this to happen?"

The semi-open ending left Fang Ning with a feeling of wanting more.

"Recommend" After Fang Ning clicked on the recommendation button, he saw from the background that this novel had been recommended by three other editors.

They belong to the first round of review, which adopts a cross-review system. As long as one editor thinks it is good, it can enter the next round of review. The next round is that all the preliminary review judges sit together to look at the works and select the works that enter the final review.

The preliminary judges are not just the editors within the science fiction world, but also people from sponsors, university professors, young science fiction writers, etc.

The final review will be conducted by well-known domestic writers and scholars.

Fang Ning turned sideways and asked Chen Hui next to him: "Huizi, what do you think of Once Upon a Time in Kuala Lumpur? I suspect that this is an old author who created a new pseudonym to submit his work."

Chen Hui is another editor, and he also recommended "Past Events in Kuala Lumpur".

Chen Hui shook his head: "Are there any veteran authors in China who are good at writing science fiction and mystery?

It doesn't seem so. On the contrary, I think it's a newcomer. Isn't it normal for talented newcomers to suddenly emerge?
The writing is sophisticated, the descriptions are precise, and the perspective switches a lot without feeling cluttered. What I find most amazing is that its reasoning is very well combined with the future world, the logic is self-consistent, and I can't find too many loopholes.

If no better works emerge in the remaining few days, I think this is the best submission I have ever seen. "

Chen Hui gave a higher evaluation.

Fang Ning agreed: “I think so too.

After the preliminary review is over, we can contact the author first, and whether or not the work wins an award, it can be published in the subsequent Science Fiction World. "

Chen Hui said: "How could we not win the award? We are the organizer, not Tencent, so there are not so many shady things going on.

Even if there are better works coming out later, he will definitely have no problem taking the second prize.”
