Chapter 648 Award Ceremony

Chapter 648 Award Ceremony
The Thuringian Forest is located between the Vera River and the Thuringian Basin in the German state of Thuringia.

There is a medium-high mountain range 150 kilometers long and [-] kilometers wide, one-third of which is covered by lush forests.

The Thuringian Forest, the green heart of Germany, is actually just a part of the mountains to the west of the Neustadt Reinsteig, while the east part of the mountains is called the Thuringian Schist Mountains.

On the west side of the forest, a few young Asians were carrying bags and looked haggard. They had been walking around here for several days, and they were exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Old Qin, this place is too big, it's really not easy to find any clues."

"There is no way. The local people don't quite believe what they know about this legend, so we can only try our luck."

"Well, it's just luck."

……

These people are the students who came to do research from Shizhong College.

The reason why they came to the Thuringian Forest is because it is said that this forest is the birthplace of Rosenkreuz.

According to the information they collated, three Rosicrucian manifestos were published anonymously in the past ten centuries, namely "Legend of the Brotherhood" in 1613, "Confessions of the Brotherhood" in 1615, and "Christian Rosen" in 1616. Cruz's Chemical Wedding".Together they describe the legendary experience of the German pilgrim crc, calling him Christian Rosenkreuz in a third manifesto.

Legend has it that the pilgrim studied with occult masters in the Middle East and founded the Rosicrucian Order upon his return to Germany.

After Lao Qin and the others knew this, they ran to the edge of the forest that was said to be the birthplace of Rosenkreuz, hoping to find some key clues.

But they've been here for several days, and they haven't gotten any key information.

For this research, they trekked mountains and rivers and traveled to many places.

Not only did they not even watch the new movie "The Last Starfish", they even knew that Zhang Zhong was in Hamburg, Germany, so they didn't go to the signing event.

It's not that they don't want to go to the signing event, it's just that they go to Hamburg once, and it may take a day or two to waste time in line.

They can spend a few days around this forest in order to find a little clue, but they must not waste time on other things.

The trip to Europe was more difficult than they imagined.

Until now, most of the clues they got were found online.

However, during this period of time, they were not without gains. In addition to some unreliable legends they heard from some local residents, they also had a deeper understanding of the clues they had previously searched on the Internet.

They have gradually been able to link the clues they got before to form a somewhat fuzzy line.

It is also because of this that they can persist for such a long time.

……

Zhang Zhong, who signed the book for readers in Hamburg, did not know that there were several young people near a forest in Germany who were trekking hard to find the truth because of his encouragement. All he can feel now is the enthusiasm of the readers.

After signing the last female reader, Zhang Zhong took the book handed over by the next reader and raised his head slightly.

Under normal circumstances, in order to increase his speed, he always bows his head to sign, and only occasionally raises his head, also to prevent the cervical spine from being too tired.

Looking up this time, he always felt that the nervous boy in front of him looked familiar.

Recalling it, I remembered where I had seen this boy.

"Did you also go to the signing in Zadar last time?" Zhang Zhong asked with a smile.

James stared at Zhang Zhong with piercing eyes, licked his dry lips and said, "I've been to almost all of your book signings."

"Oh, is that so?" Zhang Chong smiled, it seemed that he had met that loyal reader.

Zhang Zhong asked afterward, but James became excited. In order to prove his words, he unfolded the cloth bag he carried with him, and there were Zhang Zhong's books on it.

"This was originally signed by Zadar last time, this is Los Angeles..."

Seeing James' excited look, Zhang Zhong smiled, opened the book he had just signed, and added a sentence to him: Thank you for your support all the time.

"what's your name?"

"My name is James Westbrook Jones Andrew Corden."

Zhang Zhong smiled and added: To James Corden.

This guy had too many middle names, so Zhang Zhong only chose the first and the last.Originally, I only wanted to write one James, but seeing that he was so lucky to report his name, I wrote two.

Zhang Zhong felt that this guy should be a basketball fan, and his middle names were all the names of some basketball stars.

James was ecstatic after getting the signature, and couldn't help kissing the book in his hand before he walked away.

After walking far away, he opened the title page and looked at the special signature inside. He even had an urge to add a z in the middle of the name in the future, and add pz's surname as well.

……

The time has come to August, and the award ceremony of the Nebula Awards will be held soon.

Zhang Zhong had already received the invitation letter for the Nebula Award Ceremony, but when he received the invitation letter, the itinerary for the signing event had already been decided. On August [-]nd, he happened to be in France for the signing ceremony.

So this year's award ceremony, he has no way to participate.

He can modify the time of the signing event, but if something has already been decided, if it is changed, it will affect the whole body. Many fans watched the date and booked the ticket. If he changes it here, the fans' itinerary will also follow. change.

For Zhang Zhong, it doesn't matter whether he participates in the Nebula Award Ceremony or not, but it's not so good to cheat fans.

When the Nebula Awards Ceremony officially started, it was almost midnight in France, and Zhang Zhong's autograph session had just ended.

Back at the hotel, after washing up, the family stayed in front of the computer and watched the Nebula Awards ceremony.

What they watched was the domestic live broadcast.

The live broadcast has just started, and the host and two guests are chatting.

The host and guests of CMTV this time are the same as last year, the same three people.

The host, Hu Gang, and the two guests are Li Qin, editorial director of "Science Fiction World" and Fenghe, a domestic science fiction novelist.

Hu Gang said with a smile, "I heard that Teacher Fenghe has cooperated closely with Zhang Zhong this year?"

Feng He smiled and replied, "It's not that I have cooperated with him, I just signed with their company, so my works will be published by his company in the future."

Li Qin on the other side complained a little, "It's really hard to get a draft about Fenghe now."

It's really difficult. Since Feng He signed Zhang Zhong's company, his reputation has also increased a lot, and his manuscript fee has also increased linearly.

And now that Fenghe has a good manuscript, he will definitely choose "Zero and One" as his first choice. Their "Science Fiction World" can only drink soup now.

But Li Qin was just joking. They have no complaints about Zhang Zhong and "Zero Zero One", because "Zero Zero One" did not affect the sales of their magazines after it came out, and because of Zhang Zhong's rise, even more magazines in China Many people pay attention to science fiction, and now the market environment of their magazines is even slightly better than before.
