I know I am guilty of spamming Three Body Problem shit on this site, but damn the entire book series is really an accurate reflection of how we perceive and respond to our previous and current oppressors (Imperial Japan, the US empire).
What is that?
It's a sci-fi book series by a Chinese author that just got adapted into a Netflix show. I've heard good things about it.
You had me at it’s.
The only sci-fi book series in China that is more than a niche web series, so it’s sort of like a national pride when it comes to science fiction.
On its face, it’s a story about alien invasion with cool sci-fi concepts but there is a deeper layer of meaning that perhaps only the Chinese audience can identify with, about how one civilization responds to a more advanced civilization that threatens to wipe off their existence.
There is a Netflix adaptation just released but it’s more of a superficial read of the story rather than exploring the deeper and more complex ideas that the author had embedded into the series. The book series is leaps better, though expect some brainworms from a boomer Chinese nationalist. The Tencent series is also very good if you can afford to endure the 30-episode runtime.
I think I’ll check it out.
