The Goddess Shines on America

When the night fell on downtown Manhattan, the continuous skyscrapers were lit up with bright neon lights, and at the same time, in all the offices that were still on duty, bright lights were shining brightly.

This included one of the windows of Bantam Books.

When the manuscript was at the bottom, Brown raised his head, stretched his tired body, and at the same time expressed his heartfelt emotion.

Bravo.

Brown boasted that he had been editor for fifteen years, and although he had not yet become editor-in-chief, he was one of the best bantams for a secretary. But for so long, this is the first time I have read such a wonderful science fiction novel!

It is different from StarCraft like "Galaxy Empire", and different from Asifmo's "I, Robot" or "Gods Themselves". In this book, the author only tells one thing that happened in "modern "s story.

There is no emphasis on super high technology, there are no aliens or robots or spaceships to catch the eye, but there are dinosaurs, and there is an island with many dinosaurs as the highlight.

Park, and the author just happened to arrange the background of the story in the 1980s, which is only five years ahead of time. Except for the large-scale development of biotechnology as a simple background setting, everything else Everything is exactly the same as the real world.

In this way, when Brown read this book, the sense of substitution really made him feel so happy!

"It's already midnight? My God, I watched it for twelve hours in one go!"

After finally finding the energy, when he saw that the clock on the wall was pointing to two o'clock in the morning, a sense of extreme joy instantly covered his exhaustion, and Brown immediately regained his energy.

It's been a while since the number of submissions to Bantam has dropped, and I've been able to go a while without reading this. The whole book is about 300,000 words, and I actually read it all in one go in twelve hours!

Furthermore, recalling the plot of this book, Brown has a 120,000-point admiration for the author.

First of all, the foreshadowing of the plot is necessary, but the author's method of paving the way for the official debut of dinosaurs and even their cruelty is indeed a bit terrifyingly real.

The essence of the plot told at the beginning of the story is the story of a carnivorous dragon on the dinosaur island who fled to land and did not intend to hurt people. Of course, the author did not reveal the truth from the perspective of human beings and several biologists, but only created a terrifying atmosphere of suspense.

The so-called injured workers on the construction site had their skin torn apart, their shoulders and thighs were stripped off, and they were poisoned and unconscious after leaving the word "raptor"; the baby in the cradle was attacked by a carnivorous dinosaur the size of a small lizard. The tender skin and flesh are torn off and eaten.

The example at the beginning and the description in the preface make the atmosphere of horror and suspense surround the readers all the time, which stimulates Brown to keep reading.

Furthermore, the author obviously has a deep understanding of the rapidly developing computer industry. There are a lot of descriptions of computer technology in the manuscript, and even took the trouble to make some screenshots of the operation interface. Under the exclusive decision of park investor Hammond, the entire park adopts a full computer monitoring system across the ages, and even the number of dinosaurs is detected by sensors.

As soon as he saw this, Brown immediately realized that these computers must be unreliable.

And the subsequent episodes just confirmed his point.

The total number of dinosaurs is X, and the number detected by the detector is Y. As long as Y is not less than X and no dinosaurs are lost, everything will be fine.

This is the monitoring method of the park staff, and they didn't discover a fatal loophole until the park lost control and the dinosaurs ran wild, endangering the safety of the children.

What if Y is greater than X?

The original eight Velociraptors had multiplied to a total of thirty-seven without realizing it...

And with regard to these data, the author presents them in the form of a table simulating a display. The Arabic numeral 8 on the left and the numeral 37 on the right, looking at the obvious difference, when he read it, Brown broke out in a cold sweat.

The method is too clever!

Having been an editor for fifteen years, Brown certainly knows the impact of simple Arabic numerals. In terms of data, in many cases, directly listing numbers is far more efficient than writing. Otherwise, why can Arabic numerals be widely circulated, and accounting statements also use numbers as the main data?

Giving the table directly, comparing the Arabic numerals of 8 and 37, is far more exciting than slowly describing how the Velociraptor reproduced!

"This author is simply a genius, with superb writing, amazing imagination, rich biological knowledge, proficient in computers, and from the very beginning, he has been discussing human and nature, human and biological environmental protection knowledge, and the knowledge of biological evolution .He... Who the hell is he?"

With this question in mind, Brown curiously turned to the last page of the manuscript.

"Well………………"

When it was already midnight in New York, it was already eleven o'clock in the night in Los Angeles on the west coast.

"Well... look, Hannah, they're still out there."

In front of the bedroom window, Alice was wearing blue-spotted white pajamas, looking out of the window with her feet up. Just across the road from her home, Officer Sergey's police car was still parked there, more than ten meters away, and she could clearly see the man in the driver's seat.

"It's really hard work. It's really hard to be a policeman. Sister, when I brought him water before, I found that Mr. Sergey was eating hamburgers for dinner."

Hannah, in a pink speckled pajamas that matched her crimson wavy hair, was sitting on the closed side of the windowsill, pouting.

"Do you think there really are any serial killers around here? Although the three high school students did disappear, and a gallon of blood was indeed found, but..."

"But after all, the DNA test results have come out."

Alice touched her nose, it was her idea to ask Hannah to bring water. At present, Sergey and Polin are on the morning and evening shifts. After all, they are just routine and simple protection. If the two policemen are tirelessly guarding around 24 hours a day, Alice will die of shame.

"That gallon of blood did belong to the three of them, thanks to Lincoln High School's well-equipped physical examination facilities. Tsk tsk, Hannah, what you see now is only a small part. God knows if there is any in the police summer in Los Angeles. More than a dozen people have set up a special task force for this, think about it..."

Listening to Alice chattering, Hannah just blinked her big bright eyes and looked at her adoringly.

elder sister!

From a very young age, since she was sensible, Hannah almost grew up listening to her sister's myth.

It's not just how smart she is, Hannah knows that she hasn't understood what a stock is until now. But that's it, just two years older than herself, Alice was able to persuade her parents to buy stocks, and then she made so much money!

Hannah didn't understand Apple, IBM, and some other companies at all. She just knew that not long after Alice persuaded her parents to buy their shares, the family became very rich!

Especially for Apple, December 12, 1980 was the date when it was listed on Nasdaq. Hannah didn't understand the concept at all. What she knows is that because of the huge initial stock purchase, her family can now receive hundreds of thousands of dollars in dividends every year!

And every year is higher than the year!

And this is because of Alice, because of what my sister said to her parents!

For example, at this moment, Alice started to make her understand again, such as "haunting and thriller suspense is not suitable for LA", or "LA should be an action blockbuster", and "my kind of thing should happen In a small town on the east coast" and other inexplicable emotions.

So, Hannah interrupted her: "By the way, Alice, how is your book doing? I've never seen you write it. Can it pass the review of the publishing house?"

"Of course, my work must be the best!"

Alice's tone was exaggerated and high-pitched. She stood up straight in an instant, straightening out her full C-Cup size, as if she was not afraid of her sister's envy and jealousy. She put her hands on her hips and said loudly.

"And don't forget the efficiency of FedEx! I guess they should have received the goods by now! Wait and see, Hannah, wait and see your dear good sister transform into an excellent legendary writer! Hehe , Sissy, that girl still dares to question my ability to write a book, let's see how she begs me to write a sequel!"

"……sequel?"

Hannah blinked her eyes wide: "Just after the main story sent out the courier, you already have the idea of ​​a sequel!?"

Sister is worthy of being a sister, she is so powerful!

"Of course, I've already thought about the title of the book, and the cover!"

Facing Hannah's adoring eyes, how could Alice not make her majestic C-Cup bigger?

"Jurassic Park II: The Lost World! And the cover must be red! Of course, the cover of this one must be green, and then there must be a dinosaur pattern in a skeleton state, surrounded by a tropical rainforest border , and the overturned car is at the header. When the people from the publishing house come to beg me, this is the condition that takes precedence over everything else!"

"Wow, that looks awesome, but why? Alice?"

"Well... this..."

Alice rolled her eyes, and finally decided that there was nothing wrong with telling the truth.

"Of course, because if it wasn't that kind of cover, I'd be so awkward!"
