I have never read the "Three-Body Problem" carefully. In other words, I have never been able to read the "Three-Body Problem", although my little friend has been telling me that I should like this book. There's also "A Song of Ice and Fire" which I've never been able to read, but it's not really science fiction.
I grew up reading "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea". I initially thought that science fiction should be like this: to build what the future world will look like, to use a smart brain to imagine those technological advancements, which people have never seen before, but it should be Real existence or the future can actually exist, so it is called science fiction.
But that's not how some people think about science only. I also read a science fiction novel when I was a child, the name has long been forgotten, and I have never encountered it again. The story is about the social problems brought about by the (at that time) future population expansion that would bring about insufficient food to eat. It should have been translated from a book from around the 1930s, but unfortunately I have never found it again. The book does not talk about how to make enough food to eat, nor why the population will expand. It talks about what kind of social problems there will be at this time, and how to find a solution to the problem. It's also a kind of science fiction. At the end of the last century, there was a book written in this way, called "Yellow Peril". Such books envision human society under the guise of technology. It is estimated that Sisheng was not lucky enough to read it late. In the bones, "1984" can barely be regarded as this kind of science fiction book. It's just that this book is too sociological, so few people think it's science fiction, where the technicality is not so strong. If 1 is set as all, then the technical score of "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" is 0.9 and the social credit is 0.1; while the technical score of "1984" is only 0.1, but the social credit can be above 0.9.
But no matter what kind of science fiction it is, it is not fantasy, it is not made up, it has its own logic. The idea is to give Ma An a pair of wings, not to say that fish can also fly in the sky. A horse with wings flying in the sky is called a logical idea, while a fish with only gills can live out of water and fly around in the sky. That is called fantasy without logic, not science fiction.
Black Mirror is a British sci-fi film that is also biased towards sociology. Technology accounted for 0.4 and Sociology accounted for 0.6. Think about the current social problems under the routine of the future trend of science and technology. I haven't checked the origin of the name, so I don't know if there is a metaphor. Is there any legend about Black Mirror in ancient Greece? The story is on the top, the selected points are on the top, and the criticism and reflection on the society are on the top.
The best science fiction works not only design the possibility of future technology, but also think about how human beings will face the possibility of future technology. ("1984" lacks the design of future technology, so it seems very heavy. "Avatar" only designs the possibility of future technology, so it seems very superficial.)
Three-body can be considered to be working in the direction of four or six openings, thinking about the law of the jungle under the cool technological progress. But this thinking is too grand, and a story that always wants to have a grand narrative can’t achieve a grand narrative, but it is not as down-to-earth as the one from Black Mirror. Because in the former one cannot read the shadow of real life, or the grasp of human nature is still not enough, it is not that way of facing life directly and expressing happiness directly.
Black Mirror has reached the fourth season, such as the archangel in this season, it seems to express an example of not kidnapping children with love under the new technology, but it is actually saying that the government should not control too much, let alone moral Surveillance and control your people in name. If you only read the first layer of metaphors, you're down.
So science fiction is the same as other works, the only difference is that it borrows a historical body (such as the Three Musketeers, Romance of the Three Kingdoms), or borrows the appearance of a technology, or borrows any object to tell people about these social problems What is it, reminding people to reflect on these social problems and predicting social problems that may arise in the future. If you are a master, you don't need to toss and turn to dig your own thoughts, just record the real society. The writer at this time is the camera, recording exactly what you want to record. People naturally understand those inner philosophies through your choices. If you are just a low hand, you must have an idea to express, an idea, a bridge, a story, and the ups and downs of the grass and the snake. Incarnation, I illustrated this life, and naturally I think you are good. At this time, the writer is a scalpel, precisely cutting and reconstructing, taking Zhang San's head and Li Si's face, just like a painting, never using a whole model, but each limb is always similar to a certain one, If there is no resemblance to a living person, it is a non-figurative work (Lu Xun roughly). But if you fall into the mortal world, you just write for the sake of writing, repeating the ideas of those masters in the past, imitating the techniques summed up by those followers, only skins, occasionally gorgeous, but no soul, every now and then , there may also be thousands of fans, but they always disappear with the wind, and quickly disappear with the wind, because fans will always be fans.
Again, Black Mirror is the best sci-fi work I've ever seen, but I don't strongly recommend you to watch it now. I'm afraid you'll get into this hub and won't be able to get out, turning a genius into a parody. , so let's figure it out for yourself. Thousands of hammers have carved out the deep mountains, and he has never read the scriptures before becoming a Buddha.
