Knock like(????Ω????)???? When I read it in physical form, it was really the cutest book in the whole book. Chong Chong or something like that, he laughed for a long time and said hhhhh
It's super interesting. Free tickets for free. I just finished masturbating to the three body parts. Friends who like science fiction must not miss it. Li Bai is so cute.
His style is full of humanism.
Very pretty. You can read it as a little fairy tale, but it will definitely not be understandable to preschoolers (laughs). Regarding the name Chong Chong, I suddenly feel that even if the big teeth can eat people, they are suddenly not scary anymore.
Ancient Poetry~Immortal Charm
Liu Cixin describes the confrontation between Yiyi, a human professor of ancient poetry and literature, and God in his usual bold, imaginative and shocking style. When faced with God's unimaginable advanced science and technology, Yiyi's only bargaining chip is poetry. And because she firmly believes that the barrier of technology is insurmountable, the artistic conception of Li Bai and Du Fu's poems makes God start the ultimate chanting project. God both won and lost in the end. It is true that God has written all the possible poems and songs in all eternity, some of which are comparable to Li Du's, and the number of poems and songs even exceeds the total number of poems and songs created in all human history. But God also lost at the same time, because it could not find them. It uses almost the entire solar system to complete the ultimate chant. At the same time, its high technology makes it contrary to the ability to use the most primitive and sensitive heart like human beings to understand and appreciate the beauty of these words and the revelation behind them. Although the human mind is inferior to the entire universe of God's technology, God's technology has imbued the human mind with humanistic love and affection. Li Bai and Yiyi, who were incarnations of God, finally chose to give in despite their stubborn persistence. God admitted that people's wonderful feelings and endless associations with poetry cannot be measured by an objective technology or algorithm. On the other hand, Yiyi was also amazed by the magnificent technological power of compressing billions of poems into an atom-sized space. Liu Cixin expressed his love for classical poetry and expressed that it will always exist in the subconscious of the human nation. He also expressed his awe and yearning for knowledge and technology. A society that completely restricts technology is confused and difficult to find a way out, while a human group that completely abandons poetry is a numb body without a soul, and the precious glimmer of humanity will no longer exist. Under the light of Shiyun, the warm scene of Li Bai and Yiyi's questions and answers was deeply engraved in my heart. It was a victory of humanity and technology. This is how ancient poems and prose exude their dark yet clear light, edifying the hearts of those who follow them, and allowing future generations to gain inspiration and wisdom from them. The fire is passed down from generation to generation, and the charm is everlasting.
It wasn't until I read this article that I finally found the possible source of our self-confidence and self-esteem before advanced civilization. In this article, Liu directly faced the problem of the technological gap that is most difficult for lower civilizations to accept. Besides, how can such a story not be a poem?
Why are there so few books by Liu?

OMG this story is so romantic and super cute! ! !
Really nice
Romantic poems make up romantic stories. I don't know whether a poem is a story or whether a story is a poem.
