[May you continue to accompany me with you (long story, including spoilers)
(ps: The article is long, with spoilers at the end, and I have a lot of thoughts. I hope you can read this article and leave a message in the book review area. Shi Tou will check it out.)
During the National Day, I would like to wish you all a happy holiday for children’s shoes!
This book has been almost 7 months since March to today. Thank you for your companionship of more than 200 days and nights. During these 200 days, some friends left halfway, some came from the middle, and some still stayed with Shitou. I would like to thank my friends who are still chasing and supporting Shitou.
Shi Tou has been thinking about a question and wants to know this question, that is, what do you think when you read this book? Ignore the plot in the article, what does it feel like when you read the future technology described in the article? What do you think about the future of our world when you read the content in the first million words of this book? Do you think and believe that we can witness it in our lifetime?
If everyone agrees, Shi Tou is also happy, because Shi Tou also feels that many of the technologies in the article will soon become reality, although the expression in the article is a little exaggerated.
It is worth mentioning that this book is still a bit different from most online articles. Judging from similar books, it is not a rebirth of time travel article, which uses the advantages of the so-called "prophet" to know the future to create refreshing points. Similarly, this book does not use upgrades to stumble on people, and the villain jumps out and is slapped in the face by the protagonist. This kind of systemization and routineization is mainly used to create refreshing points.
To be honest, the old bookworm can definitely see that if this book is written in a routine and systematic framework, each technology must pretend to be a fuss, then adjust the relationship, and attract a few lovers, and then hit the face of the second generation ancestor who is "unaware of the world". It would be normal to write this way at least 3.5 million words.
But "Technology Giant" has less than 1.3 million words yet!
In fact, Shi Tou's idea of writing this book is very clear, that is, through the story and the protagonist, from the perspective of "Ren Hong", we will show you the future of our world and the life under the future technology (if you want to say it is, this should be this). With Shi Tou's personal understanding of our future world, we will lead everyone into the fantasy world of the near future, and show you what the future world in Shi Tou's mind is like, and just want to do this.
Virtual reality vr, mixed reality mr, augmented reality ar, artificial intelligence ai, etc. These are all hot topics in our current world today, and the most popular technology frontier fields are not new.
And the reason why this book is a bit special is another reason, that is, it is to show the existence of affairs as closely as possible. For example, the Aida organization mentioned above may not be familiar with it, but it actually exists in the real world, and was established in 2015.
Microsoft is indeed studying DNA molecular data storage hard disks, of course there is no finished product yet, and Microsoft has successfully commercialized it in the article.
D-ave does have quantum computers again. It is a Canadian company, and its headquarters is indeed in Burnaby, and there are finished products. Amazon's founder Bald Bezos has indeed invested heavily.
There is also a technology company that seems to be called "Punnedg" that is indeed studying chips that imitate the operating principles of the brain, and will be shipped from the end of this year to the beginning of next year, and ibm is also investing on a large scale.
The company, the former Google company, does have a moon landing plan, that is, the "P-Sun Ze" moon landing plan. Stone unintentionally praises any company here, but for companies that are now Americans, they put aside national boundaries and business interests, and not say that the achievements of conflict are worth silently giving 32 praises. Larry Page said that the company hopes to change the world, at least in the future torrent of changing the world, Larry Page and Sergey Brin are indeed visionary to withdraw from the traditional Google business and reorganize into a brand new one and take charge of the company.
Currently, the world's second largest market value is Apple, and it has won the first place twice.
Shi Tou also hopes that more companies like or above will appear in China. In fact, we are also proud of it. There is the well-known "Huawei" on the surface, which is the world's top in the field of communications. Americans' strict defense of Huawei's "invasion" is a powerful proof. There is also the "Ali" in full swing. We watch it from changing China to changing the world. There is also the "******************".
In fact, there are many achievements in our country's scientists and our country's achievements in promoting human scientific and technological progress. Not to mention the older generation of pioneers, our scholars have also achieved remarkable achievements in the world, but you may not pay much attention. If you like to read scientific magazines like Nature, you will find that many of the most eye-catching scientific achievements in recent times have been achieved by scholars in our country. Those who are interested can learn more about it. I won't say more here.
There are huge differences in the cultures of the East and the West in all aspects. From the perspective of the open, everyone seems to have only seen that the West has created emerging technologies and other technologies. Perhaps, the West is better at dissemination and commercialization, after all, they have advantages in this regard. But in fact, the gap between the East and the West is getting smaller and smaller. Don’t forget what we started? What is the West? We lost at the starting line, but the real decision of the outcome depends on the end. We may not be the final winner, but we will not become losers.
Just talking about the "International Space Station", it will be announced to be retired around 2020, and our "Tianzhou" will be completed around 2020. If there is no surprise news, after the "International Space Station" is retired, "Tianzhou" will become the only space station in orbit. Not long ago, the "Tiangong-2" space laboratory was launched as a gift for this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, and we are proud of it.
I've talked far and returned to the original topic. In fact, after saying so much, Shi Tou just wants to show everyone the future world in his mind.
Returning to the story itself, the core theme of "Technology Giants", it shows everyone that in our near future world, technology changes life, everything is to show the welfare of technology to mankind.
But there is light and shadow, and everything has two sides, so technology can not only bring welfare, but also disaster. Angels and demons have always been symbiotic.
Therefore, the theme of the sequel to "Technology Giants" will be the negative side of technology.
Regarding the sequel, there are many characters in the sequel story, including the transformation of the male protagonist in this book from a technology leader to a human leader who saves the world, etc. Shi Tou also knows that "Technology Giant" is thin in character portrayal. On the one hand, it is based on its foundation, and on the other hand, it is also intentional because the real protagonist of "Technology Giant" is a future technology, just like the protagonist of "Transformers" is a robot, and the protagonist of "Jurassic Park" is a dinosaur.
But there will be more characters in the sequel. For example, the important character "Liya" has already spent a lot of time to portray it. Perhaps Shitou portrays the character "Liya", so some students want to let the male lead take it, otherwise it will be too heartbroken. Others include "Phone Test" such as the chimpanzee with increasingly high intelligence, and "Baihua" with a slight mention of the sense of justice. This character may have been ignored by everyone.
They are all important roles.
The above characters that have been mentioned and not disclosed are important in the sequel.
Regarding the two or three sequels of the future, Shi Tou has invested too much energy and revised it many times. He has been thinking about how to show everyone a real and illusory fantasy world, a grand and magnificent world and story.
Obviously, if a trilogy is portrayed throughout the whole process, it is a biography of the character's life. The world view and framework portrayed in that way seem too pale and too monotonous.
Shi Tou loves Liu's "The Past of the Earth" trilogy, namely "The Three-Body" and also likes foreign works such as "The Divergent" and "The Lord of the Rings". These works have physical books. Shi Tou is obsessed with the huge world structure and wonderful storylines of those fantasy or science fiction stories.
Of course, don’t misunderstand here. Shi Tou must know himself and dare not compare with these "really great touches". He never dared to write such works in online articles. After all, online articles do not hinder Shi Tou’s yearning.
It is overestimating one's ability to regard "Da Liu" as a goal, but Shi Tou has found a goal that still seems difficult but has hope. Although it is a bit far away, at least everyone is an online writer, that is, the author of "Rainbow Gate". I think many students know about "Rainbow Gate" "Era of Earth". This is a rare and excellent science fiction work from Qidian. Students who are interested can go and take a look.
In addition to "Era of Earth", Shi Tou also recommends another book, which is the "Z-Great" work that creates an infinite genre. These are rare and unique science fiction works under the mainstream of Qidian.com's "time and space shuttle" and "losing the doomsday flow" rampant. Although the two works have not been completed, I still recommend students who have not read them to try it out.
Having said so many topics, Shi Tou just wanted to show everyone a story different from the mainstream. Just like a post in the comment area where Shi Tou has always been the top of the comment area, a post posted by id:mes privately. One of his words impressed Shi Tou, which is also the biggest reason why Shi Tou is topped, namely: "The future world in science fiction novels should be full of the heroic "Enterprise Number" that launches the curvature engine and escapes billions of light years. It should be that artificial intelligence led the Intelligent Armor Legion ruthlessly to stir up the blood and helplessness of conquering the earth. Instead of accompanying the so-called system and the main god to play the end-of-day games, it is not fighting to the death with the loss in the end-of-day..."
This passage made Shi Tou feel slightly shocked, and it was almost gone to his heart, and a deep resonance arose.
A concise passage reveals the theme of the two plots of Shi Tou. Here, Shi Tou is not afraid of spoilers. First, the students who continue to support Shi Tou after seeing this must be the hardcore, and they are undoubtedly the strongest backing. Second, they are confident that everyone will never guess the specific plot of the start of the sequel. The specific title of the second part will not be revealed for the time being (the students who were snatched and mischievous will cry after being spoofed).
The second part of the follow-up story, it is not the Resident Evil and Zombies that subvert the human world, but the "intelligent crisis" or "intelligent equipment crisis". The story of the second part will start with the "intelligent crisis". At the peak of human civilization, the order collapsed. As for the specifics, please stay tuned...
Regarding the topic of "artificial intelligence", whether it is science giant Stephen Hawking, or technology giant Elon Musk and Bill Gates, they all expressed concerns about artificial intelligence AI. The concerns they expressed were not just as simple as the general public perception that artificial intelligence is unwilling to be "slavery" after obtaining emotional logic and launching an uprising. What these "gods" describe are even more terrifying.
Stone is just thinking, perhaps, if there is a "World War III" in this world, the two sides will be humans and intelligent weapons, rather than the previous World War I and World War II.
Stone may have a very difficult ability, but she still tried her best to show everyone a story full of epic charm. Obviously, such a story cannot have only one character, which is a biography of characters under fantasy. The epic story of World of Warcraft is not a Lich King, not an Illidan, a Medivin, or a Karazan, but they have created an obsessive epic chapter together.
Shi Tou knew his weight and never thought of writing the above shocking stories, but he also tried his best, which also gave Shi Tou a lot of inspiration and reference. "Ren Hong" could not become the protagonist of the sequel. Although he is an important role in the sequel, because he does not belong to that era, his era is a symbol of the prosperous era before the birth of the human crisis. In the order and collapse of the sequel, he has become the incarnation of legends and a pioneer and leader admired by future generations.
"Ren Hong" will definitely continue to the second part, but someone must take over to continue the story and become another legend that has been praised by future generations in the times...
Shi Tou believes that in the world under the collapse, "Mo Lin" is the symbol of that era, and this is the complete world in Shi Tou's mind, an illusory and realistic world as possible. The sequel should not be a biographical story centered around a person.
This is also why "Ren Hong" is positioned as a genius, rather than a system or main god. If this setting is unreasonable and too presumptuous, then is it reasonable to bring a "system" and "main god"? In Shi Tou's opinion, this is the biggest unreasonable.
When I returned, I saw that I had been nagging for more than three thousand words, so I ended here.
No story can be liked by everyone. If you see the readers and friends here, you like or look forward to the story described above, Shi Tou will definitely be very happy. All this is worth it. Only every word you knock out will have value.
As the post of this classmate "mes private" said, true science fiction is niche and helpless, and it is necessary to move forward in this mainstream Qidian.com or science fiction website full of "upgrading treasure hunting, fighting zombies, and traveling through infinite flow in time and space".
Readers and friends who see this, if you also like the stories written by Shi Tou, please support me. This is Shi Tou’s hobby, it is also a job, and it is the only source of income. However, Shi Tou does not want to regard it as a job. Work means that the best way to maximize benefits is to follow the flow. Shi Tou has been in the online literature circle for three years and is also considered an "old man". He knows that the risk of following the flow is relatively small, but that is not that Shi Tou wants to show everyone the world in his mind.
But it is very contradictory here. Now everyone’s genuine support and paid subscriptions are the only source of income for Shitou. Without everyone’s genuine support, you can only compromise with reality and say that you have to keep going to death by starving. Writing stories is all about me, which is too fake, and no one believes it.
So, if you really like it, come to Qidian.com to send a paid subscription support, and the subscription fee for the monthly update is only one breakfast.
Finally, I would like to thank the readers and friends who have been with the stone for more than 200 days and nights. It is because of your support that we have reached today, and we will have motivation and continue to move forward. Science fiction is niche and requires your support. So if you see this, if you can hope to be able to subscribe to Qidian.com, you are the few people who are supporting Qidian.com and Caishi.com are currently one of the few people who are walking with me.
May you continue to accompany me. In addition to these trilogies, Shi Tou has more stories to write in his heart. Shi Tou will do his best to show a different world and story to readers and friends who support me.
Thanks again!
Chapter completed!
