Lin Zixuan's book "The Strange Man of the High Castle" is very different from the original work. ◇↓◇↓ Novel.￥f

The original novel has a relatively loose structure, and the relationship between the characters is not strong, and sometimes it seems a bit inexplicable.

In order to make the plot of the novel more compact, he made changes based on the plot of the American drama "The Strange Man of the High Castle". If the TV series wants to attract audiences, it needs to have excellent plots.

The author of the original work is an American, and the description of Americans in the book is more positive and positive.

The focus of writing is to explore the consequences of justice and injustice, cultural inferiority and identity, as well as fascist dictatorship and racial discrimination on human society.

Lin Zixuan focused on describing the numbness and inferiority complex of Americans under the rule of Germany and Japan.

After more than 20 years of colonization, Americans have become accustomed to being ruled by the Japanese and have a tendency to be enslaved.

There are only a few rebels, and most Americans are proud to serve the Japanese and monitor and harm their compatriots for the Japanese.

This is Lin Zixuan's version of "The Strange Man of the High Castle", which exudes a strong sense of sorrow.

He borrowed Luxun's style and used the tone of "sading his misfortune and angering his unconfrontation" to show the daily life of Americans.

Cole felt chill all over when he saw it. He couldn't imagine how cruel the world it was.

Americans should learn Japanese culture and treat Japanese people servilely. Japanese can shoot Americans at will and throw their bodies into mass graves.

He felt that the author of this novel was either psychopathic or had paranoid symptoms.

Who would have thought of such a storyline? From the perspective of science fiction novels, this background setting is really unexpected and full of novelty.

The manuscript has more than 100,000 words, and I am afraid I can't finish reading it today, so he is going to take it home to continue reading it.

This is something that has not been done before. It would be good if he could endure seeing one-third of the manuscripts of new writers.

After get off work, Cole did not go to the bar near Wall Street to inquire about the financial market, but went home directly. After a hurry to have supper, he lay in bed and continued reading novels.

It was midnight when I saw it.

After reading the novel, he also understood some of the key points in the story, such as the movie film.

There are two worlds in this novel. In the real world, the United States failed in World War II, and in the film, the United States won in World War II.

What causes two completely different results?

Cole recalls the plot in the book.

It seems that it was because the United States elected President Roosevelt in 1933 was shot and then the United States did not recover from the economic depression, implemented a conservative isolationist policy, and did not form an alliance with the European continent, leading to the fall of the European continent.

He didn't know this future President Roosevelt, and he had never even heard of it.

This may be just a character fabricated by the author, including Churchill and Hitler, who have no impression of it.

At this time, Hitler had just been released from prison and was at the trough of his life.

Churchill was appointed as the British Chancellor of the Exchequer, but this guy was okay to lead troops to fight, but he knew nothing about finance and became a laughing stock in the British financial industry.

Cole is just an ordinary person in the United States and is not enthusiastic about politics.

Moreover, information exchange between the United States and the European continent is lagging behind, unlike later generations who watch TV news. You can know the big and small things that have happened in various countries by searching online.

So, he thought it was just a creative science fiction novel.

He decided to recommend this novel to the editor-in-chief tomorrow. Although the writing style of the novel is not very good or relatively poor, he also has the opportunity to publish it based on this setting.

The writing style can be modified, and innovation is worth encouraging.

He put down his manuscript, turned off the light, lay on the bed, ready to rest.

But the plot in the novel kept circling in his mind, and when he thought of the horrifying atmosphere of the future, he felt creepy.

Cole stood up, came to the window, looked at the lights of thousands of homes in New York City outside the window, and recalled the picture of the city being ruled by the Germans in the book. Incinerators were filled with black smoke everywhere.

In order to make human offspring healthier, Nazi Germany executed all those suffering from illness.

They also implemented genocide policies on the Jews and Slavs.

That was such a desperate world!

Cole thought so.

The next day, Cole came to the publishing house and wrote a comment on the novel "The Strange Man of the High Castle".

It is full of praise, and he even believes that this novel has become a classic of science fiction because it successfully describes a possibility of future society.

When the editor-in-chief saw Cole's comment, he couldn't help but frown.

He knew Cole, who had always run counter to the market for reading. In other words, the manuscripts that Cole valued are all niche books and have a wide audience.

What's more, science fiction novels are even more niche among niches, and classics are so easy to write.

The editor-in-chief learned a rough understanding of the content of the book from Cole's introduction, and wrote about the future world that Japan and Germany divided the United States. This setting is not easy to be accepted by American readers.

Who would like to see their country being occupied? Readers have no tendency to be abused?

It seems that Cole still values ​​this kind of book without market potential as always, and perhaps he is not suitable for the publishing industry.

The editor-in-chief threw the manuscript and comments into the trash can, took out the resignation letter that Cole submitted a few days ago, and signed the name on it.

Cole didn't expect that it was precisely because of his own reasons that "The Strange Man of the High Castle" lost the opportunity to be published.

He had no idea when he learned the news. He had long been accustomed to things like this in the publishing house, but he just felt sorry for the author of the book, hoping that someone from other publishing houses would like to the book.

Cole left the publishing house and entered the booming financial industry.

In the next few years, he struggled on Wall Street, succeeded and failed, and eventually earned millions of dollars and created the wealth myth.

In 1929, when he became a rich man, he suddenly remembered the science fiction novel he read a few years ago when he dreamed of midnight.

It is said that the US economy will fall into a Great Depression this year.

Cole with a rather trustworthy attitude, he pulled funds out of the financial market and thus escaped before the stock market crash.

After experiencing this rebirth after disaster, he could no longer tell whether the records in that book were coincidences or prophecies.

At this time, he turned his attention to New York Governor Franklin Roosevelt. If the book was written in real terms, then Mr. Roosevelt would become the future president of the United States.

Do you want to take a gamble?

After years of ups and downs in the financial market, Cole knew the importance of investment. What can be more rewarding than investing in a future president? Even if the book is fake, it is worth taking a risk.

At this time, Franklin Roosevelt was seeking re-election of the governor, and Cole fully supported Roosevelt with all his assets.

In the United States where the economy was in the Great Depression, Cole became the biggest helper for Roosevelt to be re-elected as governor of New York, and the two established a deep personal friendship.

Three years later, Roosevelt was elected President of the United States, and Cole was called the person most trusted by the media. (To be continued.) Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
