The new book "Literary Master 1978" has been released. Lin Weimin, in a daze, transmigrated into the body of an educated youth sent to the countryside. Orphaned and unable to return to the city, he chose to pursue a literary career to improve his living conditions. After finally publishing two short stories and being happy for only a few days, he inadvertently became a student at the Institute of Literature (the predecessor of the National Academy of Literature). Lin Weimin, who had hoped to make a living by taking advantage of his precognitive abilities, never expected that this brief experience would change his life after his transmigration, leading him down a completely different path.

"Mr. Hu Lai, in today's football world, the space for strikers like you who can only score goals is getting narrower and narrower... But despite this, you have still achieved remarkable success. What is the secret to your success?" On a winter afternoon, Hu Lai was showing reporters from all over the world the highest honor he had just received when one of them asked him this question. Facing the reporters' gazes, Hu Lai's thoughts drifted back to that afternoon in middle school, when he stood alone on the sidelines watching his classmates play. They wouldn't let him play, thinking he was just there to cause trouble. He also recalled his coach's stern words: "Hu Lai, if you can't put in ten times the effort of others, your talent is just a worthless stone." And a disdainful voice: "Modern football demands more and more from center forwards, more and more well-rounded players. What use is just shooting?" Finally, his thoughts settled on that moment. Night was already faintly visible in the eastern sky. In the center of an abandoned open space overgrown with weeds, a girl said to him earnestly, "Hu Lai, you actually have talent, and a very impressive talent! Because you know where the goal is!" Hu Lai stared into the girl's eyes and saw the sunset behind her reflected in them. The sunlight reflected in my pupils, flowing, burning, and condensing into a halo, as if trying to melt myself into this light. Bringing his thoughts back to the warm winter afternoon, Hu Lai smiled slightly at the enthusiastic reporters and said, "Because I know the goal is right there."

Wizards hold a supreme position across all continents and planes. Mysterious, wise, cruel, and bloody—these are practically synonymous with wizards. But what are real wizards like? After coming into contact with the wizarding world, Angor came to a conclusion: Wizards are a group of people who use idealistic thinking to illuminate themselves, yet use a materialistic attitude to dialectically analyze the world. In other words, they are a group of unconventional scientists who trudge alone on the path of pursuing truth with a rigorous attitude. Multiple worlds, endlessly overlapping. Intelligent beings, guided by some unseen force, have forged their own paths of civilization. The wizarding world, with its unique cultivation civilization, spans countless planes. Even with the Wizarding World's immense power, the true nature of the universe and the mysteries of dimensions remain unfathomable. Until, a traveler from across the multiverse visited this world. (The traveler is not the protagonist, not the protagonist, not the protagonist—I'm saying it three times because it's important!)
