本期节目话题参考文本

Being a sci-fi novel lover, Liu Cixin is one of my most beloved science fiction writers. He was born in June 1963 and he has been regarded as a leading voice in Chinese science fiction, who is the first Asian writer to win the Hugo Award, the most prestigious international science-fiction prize. Some of his books have been translated into more than twenty languages. and an award-winning trilogy by Liu (including The Three-Body Problem, The Dark Forest, Death’s End) has sold some eight million copies worldwide.

Liu’s interest in science stems from his childhood. When he was little, he already developed a fascination with weapons and then even started to make gunpowder. Meanwhile, his father sent him a speculative fiction, a copy of Jules Verne’s “Journey to the Center of the Earth.” , opening a new door for the young Liu to another world, which had a great influence on his writing career. His books appeal to many people, even Barack Obama. We are all blown away by his astonishing imagination. If you haven’t read his books, try to start with the trilogy, you will fall in love with it and then this great author in no time.
