Chapter 1496: Chapter 1224 Galaxy Empire
In terms of subdivisions, there are many directions for writing science fiction.
For example, world exploration, which can be the exploration of the planet where humanity resides or the exploration of the universe;
For example, stories between civilizations, the technological exchange or warfare between Earth and alien civilizations;
For example, future worlds or even parallel worlds;
For example, post-apocalyptic wastelands and the rebuilding of civilization;
Further, there are concepts like time travel, time paradoxes, and so on.
Among the many subgenres of science fiction, the robot genre is a very common writing direction.
There are countless science fiction novels that use robots as their core writing object, with outstanding works both on Earth and the Blue Star.
Especially on the Blue Star at present.
The application of robotic technology is already very widespread.
Not to mention in the distant future.
Just in many high-end restaurants under Sun Yaohuo’s name and several Yu Dynasty Hotels, there are signs of robots replacing human labor.
Things like delivering items to guests.
Robots can now effortlessly complete tasks according to pre-set program instructions.
And these are only the most basic functional robots.
With the advent of the smart era, more advanced functional robots also exist, they just haven’t entered every household yet.
Under such circumstances.
Science fiction novels with robots as their theme always maintain high popularity on the Blue Star.
This is also the reason why Fan Chong, a science fiction writer from the Wei Continent, chose robots as the story theme for his new sci-fi book.
Fan Chong even specifically introduced the details of his new book:
Although his new book is a long novel, the story consists of six interlinked stories, with connections between them, yet differing themes.
Now.
Lin Yuan also decided to write about robots!
Come forth!
Galaxy Empire!
Lin Yuan’s typing was swift, and the moment the thought occurred, the words "Galaxy Empire" appeared on the computer screen!
...
That’s right.
Lin Yuan has decided that his new book will be Isaac Asimov’s "Galaxy Empire"!
As mentioned earlier.
Higashino Keigo is an all-around talented writer, most adept at mystery works, but his creative themes are not limited to mystery.
He is indeed impressive.
However, overshadowed by a greater one, compared to Asimov, the author of "Galaxy Empire," the range and influence of Higashino Keigo’s works are actually insignificant.
Yes.
Asimov is a truly omniscient and omnipotent writer, having written over five hundred books in his lifetime, with works that practically cover every aspect of human life under every category of the library classification system!
From the sky to the sea;
From ancient times to the present;
Covering everything from dinosaurs to subatomic particles to the vast universe;
From popular novels to the history of the Roman Empire, from popular science books to a millennia of Far East history, from The Bible guide to science guides.
All of his works have a plain and rigorous yet humorous and witty style.
To fully utilize his humorous and comical talents, he even wrote a book called "Joke Book."
And because of this.
Asimov is revered by readers as a "god-like person"!
Most absurd of all:
Asimov even wrote erotic literature——
He published a series of works on topics of sexuality in his later years.
But no matter how many themes are covered, every writer has their area of expertise.
Asimov is one of the greatest science fiction writers in history, with his representative work being the "Galactic Empire Series."
This is a milestone in the history of Earth science fiction!
The main summary of the book:
With the help of robots, humans quickly mastered the technology to transform alien planets, starting a magnificent interstellar colonization movement.
Humanity proliferated and expanded in the Milky Way like locusts, bringing their indelible ignorance and wisdom, greed and conscience, to barren planets one after another, plunging the Milky Way into a long period akin to the Warring States era, until the entire galaxy was unified.
Eventually.
An enormous empire, ruling over more than 25,000 inhabited planets, spanning 100,000 light-years, with trillions of people rose——
Galaxy Empire!
Public opinion generally believes that the Hollywood Star Wars series borrowed ideas from "Galaxy Empire," although the filmmakers do not acknowledge it.
Similarly in Hollywood.
It is believed that the highest-grossing film in history, "Avatar," plagiarized the book’s creativity, of course, Cameron also denies it.
However, the 2008 Nobel Prize in Economics winner Krugman openly admitted:
His economic theories were inspired by "Galaxy Empire."
Additionally, Tanaka Yoshiki’s "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" was also a tribute to the Galactic Empire Series.
And works by Nisio Isin and others.
Furthermore.
The Guardian UK once reported:
Bin Laden founded a terrorist organization named "The Foundation," based on the Foundation series of the Galactic Empire Series——
Foundation.
In short, since its publication over half a century ago, this book has had a profound impact on human space exploration, world affairs, cutting-edge economic theories, and Hollywood movies.
...
Of course.
The stories in the Galactic Empire Series are too lengthy, with a total of fifteen volumes, each of which is a long novel. Such a massive tome cannot be written entirely in one go by Lin Yuan, so this time he intends to write the eighth volume of the Galactic Empire Series.
Namely, "I, Robot"!
It was through this work.
Asimov established the foundational pillar of contemporary science fiction, the Three Laws of Robotics.
First Law: A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
