Time magazine once published this assessment of the writer Jiang Hai:
"Readers are generally divided into two camps when it comes to the writer Jiang Hai. The radicals think Jiang Hai should have died in the womb, while the conservatives think the radicals are far too conservative."
The National Library once issued an open appeal to the public, calling out the writer Jiang Hai:
"Please go and die, so Eri can become a god!"
He was the greatest literary giant of the twenty-first century.
His novel To Live brought millions to tears, helping countless people feel the warmth and harshness of life, and the compassion in the world.
He was the youngest Nobel Prize winner in Literature in history.
His novel The Three-Body Problem single-handedly brought Chinese science fiction to the world stage. The empress of an empire was his fan, and powerful presidents were among his readers.
People had imagined a literary master as solemn, rigid, and humorless.
But when Jiang Hai, a figure straight out of the textbooks, finally appeared in the public eye, everyone realized...
They were wrong!
They couldn't have been more wrong!
"What era are we living in? Who still plays traditional Go? Who's up for a couple rounds of Teamfight Tactics?"
"You write novels for literature. I'm different. I write novels so I can slack off!"
"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll kill off a couple of supporting characters as a sacrifice! I'll leave the readers with all the sorrow and keep the happiness for myself..."
