The Three-Body Problem: With the Memories of the Shenhe, I Become the Fifth Wallfacer

The greatest despair facing human civilization isn't a Dark Forest strike. It's that, when the end of the world truly draws near, no one is willing to pay for tomorrow anymore. Social consumption collapses overnight, technological progress is forcibly redirected, and even the rapid spread of smartphones is strangled in its cradle. Yet Jiang Fan's cloud network plan needs countless smart devices to become reality, and his neural network data system depends on everything being connected to take shape.

In an era when even Apple is building spaceships, keeping people willing to spend and making technology race ahead along its original course seems more absurd than fighting the Trisolarian fleet itself. But Jiang Fan is determined to give it a try.

If civilization needs a god, he'll create one for everyone to see. The Civilization Game from Xiling Corporation is about far more than entertainment. While the Trisolarans stare at their screens, searching for flaws hidden in every word he says, and the ETO's Wallbreakers begin rubbing their hands in anticipation, Jiang Fan has already brought with him the memories of Shenhe and risen to the very peak of humanity's fate.

The purpose of a Wallfacer has never been to win. It's to make everyone believe that we can win.
