There are two points that impressed me most in "The Three-Body Problem". It's science fiction at all. The "dark forest state" mentioned in the book was shocking to me when I read it, but it seemed normal when I thought about it again. It’s like a warning to all humans: The universe is cruel, and maybe the discovery of aliens will bring us disaster! Another point is its description of "human nature".

Yao Haijun said on Weibo: "After watching "The Three-Body Problem", I suddenly felt a strong sense of loss. When will I see such a good science fiction novel again? It seems that no one writes like Liu Cixin The novel takes the advancement of the novel as a challenge to one's own intelligence. One after another, one marvelous fantasy makes people sigh that humans are really great animals. If it were Han Song, he might say this after reading it: Liu Cixin has made science fiction like this. Who dares to engage in science fiction?

Reading "The Three-Body Problem" reminds people of Nietzsche, who said that "life on earth is fleeting, accidental, and fruitless exceptions." Human beings It is a "tiny, short-lived species". Reading "The Three-Body Problem" has always given me a clear feeling about human beings and my own place in the universe.
