Chapter 1510: 1232: Do You Remember "Our Song"?
Chapter 1510: Chapter 1232: Do You Remember “Our Song”?
Another week passed.
Pang Long’s new book was released.
As one of the top science fiction authors on Wei Continent, it must be said that Pang Long’s creative level is quite impressive. His work received excellent reviews and sales after publication, even surpassing the performance of Fan Chong, who is also a top science fiction writer of Wei Continent.
What a pity.
Pang Long’s opponent is Chu Kuang, who has the three laws of robotics and the more advanced Zeroth Law.
End of February.
With Pang Long declaring surrender, Chu Kuang officially achieved eight consecutive victories!
At the same time.
Media news was everywhere!
“Chu Kuang’s literary duel achieves eight consecutive victories!”
“Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, and Wei levels cleared!”
“Chu Kuang challenges the world, who can compete?”
“Is Zhong Continent the last hope for science fiction authors?”
“Chu Kuang’s last two opponents, Chen Shi and Wen Shao!”
“Galactic Empire Series’ contribution to Blue Star science fiction!”
…
Online.
Various platforms.
Netizens from all continents continued to discuss enthusiastically!
“Why do I feel like the old rascal might actually achieve ten consecutive victories? He’s already beaten down eight opponents!”
“The whole world is fooled!”
“Science fiction is not Chu Kuang’s weakness at all, this guy is an all-rounder, and weaknesses simply don’t exist for him!”
“Can he really achieve ten consecutive victories?”
“The remaining two are quite strong.”
“After all, they are top science fiction writers from Zhong Continent.”
“If they are really that strong, why didn’t they come out directly to confront the Robot Series head-on, and had to wait for Chu Kuang to call them out?”
“Because the three laws of robotics and Zeroth Law are too strong.”
“When Chu Kuang presents something like this, the literary duel is no longer about the content of the novel itself, because Chu Kuang’s Robot Series has been endowed with more important significance. This significance lies in the contribution of these robotics laws to the development of Blue Star science fiction. Facing works like this is definitely a death sentence for whoever challenges them.”
“Chu Kuang, who holds the laws, is invincible.”
“Pang Long counts as taking a bullet for those two.”
“And the biggest suspense in Chu Kuang’s literary duel with the next two opponents lies in whether he can create new systematic sci-fi concepts. If not, the duel will return to comparing the quality of the novel content itself.”
“What if the old rascal comes up with new concepts?”
“It’s not like these concepts are just lying around like cabbages; it’s not easy to just produce them. Besides, even if a new sci-fi concept is presented, it needs to gain wide acceptance within the science fiction community, or else it can only be considered a personal setting by Chu Kuang.”
“But speaking of which.”
“Even if we set aside the robotics laws, purely judging by the storyline, Chu Kuang’s Robot Series is regarded as a classic masterpiece and can also defeat Pang Long’s work!”
…
Silver Blue Books.
The editorial department once again compiled and published Chu Kuang’s newly released Robot Series blog entries.
This series includes stories from “Caves of Steel,” “The Naked Sun,” “The Robots of Dawn,” and “Robots and Empire.”
Moreover.
Including the previously published “I, Robot,” it was also included in this series.
Thus.
The ultimate form of the five-works collection, the Galactic Empire Series Robot Quintet, officially came into being.
Same as before.
Although the original text is available online, this doesn’t seem to significantly impact the sales of the physical books.
Meanwhile, as the physical books are selling well.
Even the Literature and Art Association’s periodicals reported on this novel and for the first time referred to Chu Kuang as:
Father of Robotics!
Robotics here naturally refers to the three laws and Zeroth Law.
Previously, the sci-fi circle and even the fields of robotics and intelligent research had expressed unanimous approval for the robotics laws, akin to official acceptance. However, the title “Father of Robotics” proposed by the Literature and Art Association truly solidified his reputation!
In fact, Chu Kuang originally had many titles.
The most famous being “Fairy Tale King.”
And the “Father of Robotics” title from the Literature and Art Association adds another brilliant accolade to his illustrious resume.
…
At this time.
At home.
Lin Yuan saw the suddenly bestowed new title “Father of Robotics” and felt a bit odd.
It’s like he’s become an old father.
But actually, it’s not strange.
Because Asimov on Earth was also called the “Father of Robotics.”
As for the online discussions, Lin Yuan also saw them.
The netizens were not wrong about the fearsome part of the Robot Series: the introduction of the three laws of robotics and the Zeroth Law.
However, the netizens guessed wrong about one aspect:
Who said he can’t come up with new concepts next?
How about understanding Shelly, a major character throughout the Foundation series in the Galactic Empire who studies psychohistory?
Of course.
Introducing psychohistory for the first time on Blue Star has to wait until the publication of the Foundation Series in the Galactic Empire. It’s not something that can be completed in the short term.
Also part of the Galactic Empire Series.
The scope of the Foundation exceeds that of the Robot Series.
Seeing that the two remaining opponents from Zhong Continent don’t seem to be taking action anytime soon, Lin Yuan is also not in a hurry and plans to write slowly in the days to come.
…
The days ahead were calm.
Including the junction between February and March.
The major lists of Blue Star were updated again, but Lin Yuan’s various aliases’ rankings basically remained unchanged.
This left Lin Yuan a bit disappointed.
He had been hoping that Chu Kuang would climb to ninth place on the writer list with the Robot Series.
It turns out Lin Yuan was thinking too much.
Not even red-name conditions appeared.
It seems that the data of the writer ranked ninth is high, and the influence of the robotics laws has not exploded completely in a short time.
But Lin Yuan is not in a hurry.
Once the two remaining opponents in Zhong Continent are dealt with, Chu Kuang will definitely be able to directly threaten the writer ranked ninth.
Thinking like this.
Lin Yuan suddenly received a message from director Tong Shuwen:
“Teacher Admirable Fish, are you asleep?”
“No.”
“Is it convenient to call?”
“Yes.”
After sending the message, Lin Yuan’s phone rang.
Tong Shuwen apologized:
“I’m sorry for disturbing your rest so late at night. I recently have a new variety show plan. Do you remember ‘Our Song’?”
“Yes.”
Lin Yuan certainly remembered “Our Song.”
It was through this show that he met Wei Haoyun.
Wei Haoyun also joined Yu Dynasty after this show.
Tong Shuwen laughed:
“Actually, I was thinking about making the second season of ‘The Masked Singer,’ but the first season was just too classic. Unless there’s another Prince of Lanling among the singers, the second season couldn’t reach the heights of the first!”
After a pause, Tong Shuwen continued:
“By comparison, ‘Our Song’ is different. I feel it has a great chance to surpass season one because when we held this show back then, it was just the merge of four continents: Qin, Qi, Chu, and Yan. Now it’s the merger of all eight continents of Blue Star. There are more and stronger Maestros and singers, so I want to invite you to continue participating. By the way, here’s a piece of news you might be interested in: some Maestros who rank higher on the music charts plan to attend this show.”
Lin Yuan was thoughtful.

ps: Writer’s block, torture, the mask of pain is on, but today is Lin Yuan’s birthday, must keep smiling. If you see this, feel free to leave the protagonist some birthday wishes.
