"So, you don't know this book?"

Mu Chun was as lazy as a cat, only short of dozing off in the sun.

"I didn't think of it for a while, if it was this book... even fewer people would know about it, because there is no translation available for purchase."

"So, the author is smart enough to copy some rare works."

"It's not rare. If you are a good English reader, you can buy the English version to read."

Mu Chun nodded, finally put down his already empty coffee cup, and took out two things from the drawer.

two books!

"This is "The Changing Plane" published by Xinxing more than ten years ago. This is the English version of "Changing."

Liu Yun opened his mouth in disbelief, "You actually have "The Changing Plane"? This book has been out of print for a long time."

"What's the matter? I still have a good book."

As Mu Chun said, he took out a novel with a black and white cover from the drawer—"Pieces of a Holographic Rose".

This time, Liu Yun's mouth opened even more roundly.

"My God, my God, this book is even more difficult to buy than "The Changing Plane". People on the forum have been asking who has "Holographic Rose Fragment". The cyberpunk style has always been very small, but in recent years it seems It is becoming popular. "Neural Wanderer" has been published in several versions, but "Holographic Rose Fragment" has never been released in Chinese."

"William Gibson has a great reputation, but even "Neural Wanderer" is not read by many people, but the sales should be good. Whether you buy it or not is not the same as whether you read it or not."

"Even looking at William Gibson's works now, let alone in his time."

Mu Chun nodded in agreement, "It's like driving a motorcycle over a rainy city, with sticky, old neon lights under your feet.

In mid-air, you pass a corner and meet a woman who kisses you, her hair is a flashing circuit, and you touch her forehead with the newly replaced robotic palm.

There was the sound of electric current surging behind him, as well as the fluster of reading the dream. "

"Enough is enough, I haven't read this "Holographic Rose Fragment", are you talking about a short story in it?"

"No, of course not. I am a reader and a fan of science fiction. I also like prose, and I like "Dream of Red Mansions."

"Who would believe it?"

Even though he said so, Liu Yun already believed it. Based on Mu Chun's sudden narration just now and the two out-of-print books in front of him, Liu Yun absolutely believed that Mu Chun was a science fiction reader, someone who might be better than He's also a serious sci-fi fan.

"Which one did he copy? William Gibson's cyberpunk or Ursula Le Guin's whimsy?"

"You will know if you go and see for yourself? Do you want to see now?"

Mu Chun threw out a printed novel, "Look, the first prize work is almost plagiarized in its entirety."

""confusion"?"

Liu Yun read it three times over and over again, and finally he remembered this short story, which was "Chaos". He couldn't remember it because English and Chinese were slightly different in expression, and secondly, it was compared with the one in Mu Chun's collection. "The Changing Plane", the author didn't even change the title of the novel, just plagiarized it.

"That's right. Can you tell which is Le Guin's and which is plagiarized?"

Liu Yun shook his head, he really couldn't tell the difference.

"That's right, I can't even tell the difference. The question is, how come those judges haven't read this novel?"

Mu Chun showed an incredible smile.

There was also a bit of embarrassment on Liu Yun's face, he wanted to laugh but couldn't.

"After all, it is a short story. It is impossible for the judges to read all the short stories."

"That's true."

Mu Chun also agreed with Liu Yun's words.

"So? That's the funny thing you said?"

"You don't thank me?"

"thank you?"

"Look, this author is definitely wrong. I sent a message to the sci-fi boss and told me that a short story I read was very similar to a short story in the book. I asked the boss who plagiarized who?"

"Isn't this nonsense?"

"Boss is very serious. I specifically compared two novels, and then..."

"Then, why I saw a group of authors discussing plagiarism this morning, is it a good thing you did?"

"Yes, who told this kind of person not to write well, but also to plagiarize, plagiarism is not counted, and to talk shamelessly and nonsense behind other people's novels created with care.

"what?"

Unexpectedly, a trace of chivalrous demeanor suddenly flashed across Mu Chun, Liu Yun couldn't help feeling that he had come to the wrong place, where is this a hospital?

"You said it was painful or not."

It was indeed a bit of a joy.

But Liu Yun couldn't laugh. Originally, this person's comment made Liu Yun feel uncomfortable for a while, and Mu Chun's actions were considered to vent his anger on him.

For some reason, he just couldn't be happier.

"I don't care. You have to pay the treatment fee for this matter. I **** off the author under your novel, and I **** off a whole hundred articles."

"what?"

"I use a hundred numbers to beat him up."

"How can you use a hundred numbers, where do you get so many numbers?"

"As much as you want, you can count it in the treatment fee."

As soon as money was mentioned, Mu Chun changed his lazy sitting posture and said seriously: "UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has to charge the treatment fee."

"What is the treatment?"

Liu Yun wanted to say what kind of treatment is this? It's not that he asked Mu Chun to do the anti-fan thing, so why should he put the money on him.

However, speaking of it, it is a joyful thing after all.

"Let me just say, something that you will be happy to hear, don't pretend to be deep, just be happy if you want to be happy."

Liu Yun finally burst out laughing, not only because Mu Chun did it happily, but also because he laughed that he seemed to be cheated by a doctor for treatment fees.

It would be nice to be a human being who can be as happy as Dr. Mu, but the author is inevitably afraid of offending the readers.

How should I put it, I simply didn't speak when I saw the comment, it was clearly the other party's malicious comment, and I didn't dare to say anything, if it was as simple as Mu Chun said.

Over time, some authors stopped reading reviews, and some writers even said something like this before, "On the day the new book was released, I hid at home and didn't want to go out or go to the bookstore to hear what others said about my book. I was like a coward. The children are afraid that if they fail the exam, they will be criticized by the teacher.”

Dr. Mu couldn't understand such a mood.

Falling into the dust, you can't completely relax.

"Happy today, laugh today, and continue to write tomorrow, right? I guess you must be an author like Stephen King. You write all year round. If you don't learn to smile, you will become as ugly as him. .”

"What's ugly?" Liu Yun decided to say something. Anyway, this Dr. Mu still has to charge his treatment fee, so why don't he just say something he wants to say.

Liu Yun said loudly: "You are ugly, Stephen King is a great god, how about a great god?"

Liu Yun smiled, he still felt happy when paying the treatment fee.
