Nine Billion Names of God
About This Novel
No wonder he is Liu Cixin's idol! Arthur C. Clarke, the great space prophet! He is one of the "Big Three" of science fiction, alongside Asimov. He successfully predicted: the Internet, search engines, and earth communication satellites. "Nine Billion Names of God" collects 18 of Clark's classic short stories, depicting 18 futures he envisioned. God, Jehovah, Allah... These are all man-made symbols, and God's real name cannot be called. A monk made a strange request to Dr. Wagner. He needs to hire two engineers to send an automatic sequence computer to the holy land of Shangri-La. The computer works day and night, and in three months it will print out nine billion permutations of letters. Among them, the true name of the Supreme God will be hidden. The moment the list is completed, the real god will come to the world...

Ultimate Thoughts. After exhaustion, the stars went out. Too philosophical
It's pretty good, but it makes me lack of brain power.
I don't understand what it means.
