Chapter 140
For the release of the album, Chen Zhixue did not participate, he did everything that should be done, and left the rest to his subordinates, Chen Zhixue wanted the result.
At this time, he was lying on the beach chair under the sun umbrella, blowing a slight sea breeze, which was very comfortable.
Zhu Qianwei would report to him every day on the main affairs of each main company, which allowed him to basically stay at home.
Last weekend, after Zhu Qianwei got her driver's license, Chen Zhixue kept her promise and helped her buy a red Beetle, which made her excited and made it more convenient to go to various subsidiaries.
This week, on the side of the Genesis Science and Technology Research Institute, the employees have begun to enter the working state, and the HGC2 processor has been continued to be developed, of course, the name has now been changed to the Genesis 2 processor, after all, the ownership has belonged to the Genesis company.
In addition to this, a microcomputer research group has also embarked on their new journey.
Chen Zhixue used the memories of his previous life to describe to them some specific structures of the second-generation Macintosh computer, which was of great help to the research team.
The rice should be eaten one bite at a time, and the road should be walked step by step, and it is easy to pull eggs when the steps are big.
Chen Zhixue also knew that if he was in a hurry, it was impossible for technology to leapfrog too much at once.
The order issued by the Governor's Office was carried out quickly, and a multi-kilometre-long asphalt road had been extended from the Genesis Research Institute to the west to the sea, and to the east to Connaught Avenue, the main thoroughfare of Central.
Diagonally across the road from the main gate of the Genesis Science and Technology Research Institute, a building has been built by the construction team, and a three-storey building will be built here to serve as the station of the Western Ring Police Station.
Since then, the West Ring has become more and more popular.
No matter how awesome the community is, no matter how many people there are, the hundreds of strong men of the Creation Security Company will have a certain deterrent effect on them, and now the neighborhood is calm.
Before the police station was built, two police cars patrolled the neighborhood every day, which made it even more difficult for the community to make trouble in the neighborhood.
The Governor, Mr John McRy-ho, has been very effective in reforming the Force, and collusion between the police and the community is no longer as arrogant as it once was.
Shen Ru went to work early in the morning, as a wealthy man, of course, Chen Zhixue also had to rest properly, now all subsidiaries are taken care of, and the group also has Li Chi to preside over the work, under normal circumstances, Chen Zhixue does not need to worry about it.
"Drip, drip, drip. The
vibration of the pager and the piercing chirp woke up Chen Zhixue, who was sleeping on a beach chair in beach pants and sunglasses.
Chen Zhixue frowned, he had a good dream, but he was suddenly woken up, and everyone would feel unhappy.
Picked up the pager and looked at it, the phone was from Genesis Media, and he was familiar with this phone number.
After all, this is the first company he started on Hong Kong Island, and strictly speaking, Chen Zhixue is the most affectionate for Genesis Media.
It should be Yan Sibo looking for him, Chen Zhixue rarely contacted him during this time, and he didn't know what to do with him.
Chen Zhixue didn't think much about it, got up and walked back to the villa, picked up the phone in the hall on the first floor and dialed it.
"Boss, it's me, Yan Sibo, I didn't bother you, I have something I want to talk to you about. Yan Sibo said on the other end of the phone.
"Lao Yan, don't beat around the bush, just go straight and say, even if I am busy with something, I will call you back, can I still let you say it?" Chen Zhixue scolded with a smile.
"That's right, didn't you ask me to contact Random House before, their person in charge of Hong Kong Island has approached our company three times and twice, hoping to reach a cooperative relationship with us as soon as possible, and the American Science Fiction Society is currently soliciting candidates for this year's Nebula Award, and Random House has fully supported the English version of "Clockwork Girl" as a candidate. Yan Sibo said simply.
"Since Random House is so sincere, we can't let others think that we are arrogant, so let's sign a cooperation agreement with them directly, and the conditions must be no worse than the current partners, and the American publishing rights of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone will be handed over to them. Chen Zhixue instructed.
"In addition, Random House also asked us to write another science fiction work for the Hugo Awards, which will be nominated in January and March next year. Yan Sibo continued.
Chen Zhixue thought quietly, compared with the science fiction awards, the Nebula Award and the Hugo Award are two unavoidable science fiction pinnacle honors, as for the Time and Space Award, the Apollo Award, etc., they are just the science fiction awards after the two of them.
The Nebula Award is limited to original works from the United States or foreign works published in translation from the United States, and is published in the year of the award, so "A Clockwork Girl" is just right for the competition.
The Hugo Award is known as the Nobel Prize in the science fiction industry, and if Chen Zhixue wins the Hugo Award, there will be a lot of personal popularity.
You must all participate, and I hope to win them all, Chen Zhixue secretly decided in his heart.
"You reply to Random House, I will write another science fiction novel as soon as possible, and this novel will be released worldwide in cooperation with their Random House. Chen Zhixue said to Yan Sibo.
"Okay, boss, I'm waiting for your good news. Yan Sibo hung up the phone happily.
None of the works written by the boss are not best-sellers, and now there are new books, so isn't it that the performance of their Genesis Media Company will improve again!
Others are all wool from the society, Yan Sibo is different, he can't wait to keep the boss wool, after all, although the boss accounts for most of the income, he can also get a lot.
When Yan Sibo talked about the Hugo Award, Chen Zhixue thought of a work, that is, "The Three-Body Problem" created by the world science fiction writer Da Liu in Chen Zhixue's previous life.
The novel "The Three-Body Problem" not only won unanimous praise all over the world, but also won the 73rd Hugo Award for Best Novel.
Now that he had an idea, Chen Zhixue was no longer lazy, went up to the study on the fourth floor, and began to code words.
There are three parts of "Three-Body Problem", consisting of "Three-Body Problem 1: Once Upon a Time on Earth", "Three-Body Problem 2: Dark Forest", and "Three-Body Problem 3: Death Eternal".
The work tells the story of the information exchange, life and death struggle between the human civilization and the three-body civilization on the earth, and the rise and fall of the two civilizations in the universe.
Hit the Hugo Award, just use the first part.
"Three-Body Problem 1: Once Upon a Time on Earth" has a total of 200,000 words, and for Chen Zhixue, who often codes words, these are not things, and he coded 30,000 words on the same day.
Subsequently, Chen Zhixue spent his time on code words, with a daily volume of 3 to 50,000 words, and 200,000 words would be completed within a week.
