Fang Xiang

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world.  Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice.  The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos –  human and nonhuman –  into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more.  Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

The Card Apprentice

For the Victoria opening in two months, Chen Mu and Copper had sufficient time to carry out everything that they had put forward in their plan. Not only did they have the full support of Pei Hang, but the low-grade fantasy card club also gave them quite a bit of help.

That enabled Chen Mu to make rapid progress with his work, and he was able to finish all the fantasy cards that Copper required after spending just two weeks. After seeing the results from the fantasy cards that Chen Mu had produced, Copper couldn't stop praising him.

While Chen Mu's work was complete, Copper's work was far from finished. Being a head producer meant that you had to communicate and coordinate with all the other personnel for the event. He would only ever be seen working dawn to dusk, so busy that he never knew what time it was.
