Chapter 66 Debate
Chapter 66 Debate
The accusation of idolatry has stirred up a hornet's nest.
A fierce debate ensued between the two cities in the media.
One side argues that even science fiction should be grounded in reality, rather than fabricating a future out of thin air and using vague, unrealistic visions to constantly numb readers' understanding of technological development and allow the Chinese people to live in a fabricated world of prosperity.
There's no other way but to strike while the iron is hot.
Science fiction literature has overnight become the mainstream that crushes so-called mainstream reflections on pain and suffering.
Literary enthusiasts across the country have been drawn to the Xinghan Cup Science Fiction Literature Competition.
Who wouldn't be tempted by a grand prize of 100,000 yuan?
With 300 shortlisted entries for the 1,000 yuan prize, which aspiring writer wouldn't have the ambition to jump in and give it a try?
Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House, you were the first to abandon all moral principles and try to manipulate the market with money.
Even the most prestigious editorial departments of the People's Publishing House in the literary journal industry are now facing a shortage of submissions, and they are suddenly struggling to find enough articles for the new issue.
How can the mainstream not panic?
Behind the apparent distrust of Yu Zhen's national first place in the national exam lies a controversy.
In reality, it's a debate within the domestic literary scene between two voices, one old and one new, vying for dominance.
Moreover, Yu Zhen does indeed possess many qualities that are unbelievable to outsiders.
The biggest problem is that the identity of the person who had been dealt with in Shanghai was exposed again at a critical moment and used against them with veiled attacks.
Although the fight against enemy agents is not as intense now.
But people kept bringing up this issue.
This is why Yu Zhen is now famous throughout the country, and because in the past six months, everything he has done has been a major event, a glorious event, and an event that cannot be criticized.
Otherwise, to put it bluntly, they would probably have been brought under control long ago.
In Beijing, using this to attack him is not wishful thinking; it's not that they can actually bring him down. It's purely creating controversy to attract public attention. Like a toad slapping your foot, it might not kill you, but it'll scare you half to death.
I just want to disgust you and annoy you...
Moreover, it is an indisputable fact that China's high-tech development, especially in the civilian sector, is generally lagging behind the West.
However, it has been repeatedly used as evidence to tarnish the reputation of science fiction literature.
Yu Zhen was speechless and felt even more saddened by the true colors of those so-called mainstream voices in the literary world.
If you can't win the competition, just destroy your opponent.
If they can't defeat you in terms of professional competence, they'll attack your moral character and ethics?
Everyone says that the 1980s was the golden age of development for Chinese literature.
Poetry, literature, and all kinds of artistic creation surged forth like a river after the ice was broken, unstoppable.
However, if those who control the mainstream voice in the literary world are all such intolerant and magnanimous people, can they really lead domestic literature to its peak, into glory, and into a cultural highland that provides spiritual nourishment for generations of Chinese people?
Bullshit!
The cold and ruthless reality in another time and space has already proven itself once.
The so-called cultural and artistic prosperity is nothing more than temporary noise.
With a massive population of 1.4 billion, only a handful of writers with a conscience will truly emerge in the next 30 to 40 years.
This is truly one of the few truly cold and harsh realities we encounter!
Literary creation must maintain its literary quality, reflect the significance of the times, be educational, be grounded in real life, and so on…
Absolutely not!
Why are you forcing me to create some kind of intellectual trio like "Yilin," "Reader," and "Youth Digest"?
A bunch of old-fashioned people with rigid thinking, forever living in their own cocoons.
What the hell kind of bastards are they?!
Yu Zhenyi contacted Zhang Fushi by phone and made a series of demands.
He planned to sit down and hold a seminar with research experts from the Municipal Science and Technology Bureau to discuss the problem of improving the efficiency of Chinese character input in computer information.
Given the current state of computer hardware, developing a smart and intelligent Chinese Pinyin input method is simply impractical and impossible, while developing voice AI input is even more off-topic.
Furthermore, he is still unaware of the current state of development of computer hardware in China.
In North America, Apple's all-in-one computers, representing the future mainstream commercial direction of PCs, have evolved to the second generation.
In the current real-world application scenarios, whether for civilian or commercial use, domestically produced computer hardware and software systems are practically nonexistent.
There was no other way; being poor and backward was the basic characteristic of the entire country since its founding. Almost every industry in the country started from this very foundation of poverty and backwardness. The whole nation was united, gritted its teeth and tightened its belt to fight for that pride, and insisted on developing our own unique technologies and products.
The only difference is that our established policy has always been to concentrate our efforts on major tasks and to overcome and break through one difficult problem after another.
But now, a group of people, led by something like the Beijing News, are barking like dogs, frequently bringing up the most basic problem of Chinese character input efficiency, repeatedly using it to prove that the backwardness of China's high technology and the half-century technological gap cannot be solved by creating a few science fiction masterpieces.
If they're just a pack of barking dogs, you can just beat them to death with a stick and call it a day.
But they happen to be a very influential mainstream group.
Yu Zhen intends to personally intervene and, based on his knowledge and experience, forcefully accelerate the resolution of this so-called monumental problem.
The current level of computer hardware development cannot support large-scale intelligent Pinyin and voice AI models.
But it's not that there's no technology to overcome the problem.
For example, the Wubi Chinese character input method was officially launched in 1983.
Yu Zhen probably still has some recollection of the Wangma Wubi input method. As early as 1978, with the support of the local science and technology bureau in Zhongyuan Province, he had already begun to tackle the project and launched 138-key, 90-key, 62-key, and 36-key versions. After five years of persistent efforts and overcoming difficulties, he finally succeeded in developing the Wangma Wubi Chinese character input method, which is now widely used on a standard 25-key keyboard and is in a fully mature state.
The unique nature of the domestic scientific research campaign.
Yu Zhen undoubtedly possesses the clearest understanding.
He was well aware that, given the current domestic and international environment, all our technological innovations could be said to have grown amidst thorns and brambles.
Moreover, for a considerable period of time to come, there will be ongoing debates both within and outside the industry about whether the development path of "technology-industry-trade" or "trade-industry-technology" is superior.
But since a bunch of literary dogs are barking, they've once again pitted computers against Chinese character input.
This is even used as evidence that China will be unable to surpass Western technology for a very long time to come, perhaps even forever.
He was eager to produce some results in a very short time.
Let the outside world know that computers and Chinese application environments are not inherently incompatible. On the contrary, a computer application programming environment with a Chinese language context is the optimal solution that best aligns with the concise logic of computer programming languages.
