The Goddess Shines on America

　　 With editor-in-chief reading speed and review experience, Domingo read the entire book once more efficiently than Brown. Of course, this also has nothing to do with working hours. Reviewing manuscripts is also work, and he certainly has reason to exclude all other things for this.

After Brown’s propaganda, almost everyone outside the editor-in-chief room also knew that a new Chinese writer named Alice-Wang submitted an excellent work to Bantam, allowing Brown, who has 15 years of experience, to be a second-hand worker. Domingo has been obsessed for ten years.

　　 Then, when the whole day's work was almost over, seven editors, including Brown, were notified that Domingo was about to hold a meeting.

　　 "According to the process, shouldn't I contact the author first?"

　　 Just received the notice and was about to get up, Brown’s colleague, Needle drank vanilla mocha and said, “Why did Les call us for a meeting first? And still called seven people in one breath?”

　　 "Maybe it's something else, oops, my waist is really old."

　　 The editor Ames at the table next to him is already sixty years old. He is just ill-fated. Although gray-haired, he can only spend his days as an ordinary editor, even one of the largest publishing houses in the industry.

　　 "Even though Les was fascinated by that book all morning, no one ruled that he told us to have a meeting for it, didn't he? Let's all go quickly, don't let that guy wait in a hurry!"

　　 A group of people quickly gathered in the conference room, and the seven photocopied manuscripts were distributed in their respective locations. Brown knew without even having to look at it. The topic of this conference must still be "Jurassic Park."

　　 "Everyone knows what I'm up to today, so I won't gossip too much."

Sitting on the chief, the editor-in-chief Domingo said: "I have read it through. This is definitely an excellent science fiction novel, and it involves biotechnology, cloning technology, chaos theory, and the harmonious development of man and nature. Waiting for several topics. And the most commendable thing is that it did not happen in a completely fictitious era, or at this time of ours."

　　 Seeing this work by Domingo such a fan, most editors are a little surprised. The gray-haired Ames flipped through the manuscript and said: "Since it is so good, you should have already contacted the author, how is the communication with the other party?"

　　 Domingo snorted and rubbed his temples and said, "This is the biggest problem at the moment. The author did give a phone call, but I hung up for a whole day today and I couldn't reach her."

　　 "Is there no one answering?"

　　 Ames said, "Do you have any phone messages?"

　　 "Neither, since I am an Asian, I may not have the habit of using phone messages? What a bad luck."

Domingo sighed casually, and then said: "In short, I will try to contact the author tomorrow. This work is really excellent. So for the meeting now, I will give everyone a task first, that is, everyone is holding the manuscript. Read it at home, finish it as soon as possible, and write me a book review."

　　 Immediately after the evaluation just now, and then asked seven people in the audience to quickly write a book review, Domingo's two words suddenly blew up in the conference room. After all, this is the work of a newcomer writer. Seven editors have to read through the book reviews overnight. What is the situation! ?

　　 Of course, seeing the surprise of his colleagues, Domingo smiled and said, "I know that time is a little tight, but think about it, what day will it be in two months?"

　　 The editors looked at each other, the editor-in-chief suddenly asked questions that made them puzzled. Two months later, it is July. It is obviously not the time to talk about the annual reading list of the New York Times and other publications.

　　 "Two months later... when will Mr. Blaney's "Youth Is My Love" be published?"

　　 "When will the Levenware Company renew the contract with us Bantam? Domingo, you are not going to publish this book with them, do you?"

　　 A group of editors naturally think about the problem from a professional perspective. Brown was also stumped by the sudden problem of his boss. Suddenly, Nidal had an idea: "You mean the Los Angeles Olympics in July?"

　　 "Oh, yes, this must be the reason!?"

　　 As soon as he heard this, Brown suddenly realized: "Chinese female writer! And her address at the end of the manuscript is Los Angeles! Rice, are you planning to use the Chinese delegation to open the Chinese market!?"

　　 ""Jurassic Park", this book is based on Chinese people? It seems...isn't it? Can it have a market in that country?"

　　 "Regardless of whether it can be opened or not, the Olympic Games is indeed a good time to promote this book, so two months, I really need to hurry up!"

　　 Seeing that the whole meeting room suddenly became lively, Domingo sat in the chief and did not make a sound. He checked the time. Now there is about half an hour before get off work.

　　 "Why don't you go through the manuscript first and give me a preliminary suggestion."

Considering the issue of efficiency, Domingo said: “After all, since this Alice-Wang is a newcomer writer, it will take some time for the company to promote her work. It’s only two months before the Olympics, so hurry up. Some time!"

　　 At the request of the editor-in-chief, all seven of the audience picked up the manuscript and looked at it. In fact, if it hadn't been for Domingo to say something, they would have had to turn it over. After all, Brown has been telling everyone how wonderful this book is all day long, and everyone is curious about it.

　　 Brown read it again with relish, even Domingo himself, since everyone has started to read, he also copied the manuscript and read it again.

　　 The meeting room was quiet, the sound of turning pages kept ringing, and the initial browsing speed was very fast. When the minute hand was five minutes before the end of the day, most people had already read the full text.

　　 "This book is really substitutable!"

The five-year-old editor Blaney was the first to say: "Unlike the science fiction novels on the market that focus on space and the universe, this book only arranges the age in the present, and apart from the dinosaur cloning technology, everything else is consistent with Modern society is exactly the same. I'm sure that compared to other similar books, this novel has the strongest sense of substitution!"

　　 "To be precise, it is a sense of environmental substitution."

　　 Needle opened his mouth second: "I carefully read the author's description of the park control system, using computers to control the entire park's equipment. Although it is still a bit difficult now, it is completely feasible in theory."

"Moreover, the author obviously knows computer technology very well. In order to prevent ordinary readers from reading it, I have also attached a picture of the operating interface in the article. As for the cloning technology, although the current technical level is not good, it is still visible and touchable. Compared with those cosmic science fiction novels that meet aliens, the technology you can get is too close to life!"

　　 The editors present all agreed with Niddell’s comments. Since the Soviet Union launched the first manned spacecraft to allow astronaut Gagarin to enter space, almost the entire world of science fiction has been related to the universe. Similarly, as long as the public hears the name of science fiction, they will not hesitate to think of the space domain.

Like the movie "2001 A Space Odyssey" released in 1968 and its adaptation of the novel, the first "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series was published in 1979. As for the recognized master of science fiction, Asimov even started in the 1950s. I concentrated on creating several parts of the "Galactic Empire" series, these are the most typical examples.

　　 As for the "Star Trek" series that are double hits in movies and TV series, Lucas's "Star Wars" series, fan-like novels are even more overwhelming!

　　 Under such a background, this newcomer Chinese-American writer has taken a different approach, just writing about cloning technology. Generally speaking, it is actually a very risky behavior.

　　 But the cloned object is so different.

　　Dinosaurs!

　　 The writer actually moved the dinosaurs!

　　 Although in the 1960s and 1970s ~www.novelmtl.com~ many people thought that humans would definitely enter the interstellar era of lunar colonization as described in "2001: A Space Odyssey". But everyone knows that ordinary people still have no chance to enter the universe after all.

　　 But "Jurassic Park" is different!

　　The time was 1989, and the location was an island in the waters of Madagascar. By purchasing amber in large quantities, obtaining dinosaur blood from ancient mosquitoes, using cloning technology and DNA embedding technology to bring back the dinosaurs that have been extinct 65 million years ago, and then...

　　 "Then she actually thought of opening a theme park!"

Levins, who has eight years of experience in the industry, yelled with excitement, "My God! Les, and everyone, I'm not afraid of your jokes. If Madagascar really opened such a park, I would have to borrow money for ten years. Go there with my wife and kids for a week!"

　　 "Yeah, yeah, the sense of substitution is too strong!"

Brown also agreed: "Compared to going into space, going to Jurassic Park for a week, all kinds of costs are very cheap. Everyone, look at my physical fitness, if someone invites me to travel in space. , Even if you post my money, I can’t go. Can anyone be able to stand the training of astronauts?

　　"In short, everyone is optimistic about this book."

　　 Seeing the excitement of the people at the table, Domingo looked at his watch, then looked down at the end of the manuscript. On it, Alice-Wang's phone number and address are clearly written.
