Imagine a love story spanning galaxies and centuries—no, it’s not the next Marvel movie, but how celebrated Chinese sci-fi author Liu Cixin (of The Three-Body Problem fame) defines the genre. At Beijing’s Huabiao Film Awards, the visionary writer described science fiction as "a romantic journey through time and space" that reimagines humanity’s place in the cosmos. 🚀
"Science fiction isn’t just about spaceships or aliens," Liu explained. "It’s about exploring existential questions with a sense of awe—like deciphering the universe’s love letter to us." His upcoming TV adaptation Ball Lightning, currently in production, promises to blend this cosmic romance with mind-bending physics. The series dives into mysterious energy phenomena, asking: What if lightning could hide secrets older than civilization itself? ⚡🌩️
Fans of Liu’s work know he’s a maestro at turning hard science into poetic narratives. With Ball Lightning, he aims to "stretch imagination across dimensions"—proving once again why global readers are glued to China’s sci-fi Renaissance. 📚✨ Whether you’re here for black-hole drama or interstellar philosophy, Liu’s message is clear: Sci-fi isn’t just storytelling—it’s time travel for the soul.
