A Science Fiction Novel Written Like Liu Cixin
I especially like Liu Cixin's science fiction novels, which feel refreshing to me. I don't really like the love stories between artificial intelligence and humans, reflections on human nature, and other human emotions in the science fiction background. I hope there will be hard science fiction works.

"People in the past were so stupid, people in the past were so difficult" Yes, the emergence of any technology to its commercial use is always accompanied by doubts. Pioneers who contributed to the development of the times, such as Copernicus, may not have been understood at the time or even when they were alive, but time can always test everything. When the technology matures, people will only remember those pioneers! A very good book, but less than 1,000 people have read it There are less than 200 people who have reviewed it
The plot in the first half of the novel made me feel depressed and lost, and I also felt sad and sympathetic for the almost inhuman work life of coal miners. The last chapter of the novel sublimated the article through the description of a junior high school student's diary, which made me deeply moved.  "Earth Fire" made me remember three sentences: People in the past were so stupid, and people in the past were so difficult. Our sky cannot fall. It has not fallen in the past, and it will not fall in the future! Just do it and don't think too much! Pay tribute to the coal miners and all scientific workers. Finally, I quote a passage from the original text for everyone: We don't have to miss the so-called good times in the past, when life was full of difficulties, dangers, and confusion; we also don't have to be overly depressed about today's era, because today, one day, people will call it the good times of the past. (Don't ask me why I don't wrap the line, maybe 🍎 doesn't support it...)
Just do it and don't think too much! Perhaps our efforts will not be recognized by the world for a while, but time will prove everything. "Both the Great Wall and the Pyramids were super-projects that completely failed. The former failed to stop the invasion of the northern horseback riding people, and the latter failed to resurrect the pharaoh mummies inside. But time has made these irrelevant. Only the human spirit condensed on them will always shine!" The trivial things you see may be the hard work of others. Every worker deserves our respect!
Liu's works are as classic as ever, which is really hard to say. I think the depth of his imagination should be the pinnacle of Chinese science fiction!
Very real and looking forward to it (๑˙ー˙๑) The heartbreak in the first half of the novel cannot be written without experience. I also have deep feelings about it. After all, I am also a coal miner. The second half is very magical, and people today are looking forward to it. I hope that future coal mining will be the same as what the author wrote😊
Liu Xinwu's "compassion" is the shadow of the author's youth. The young man who hopes to change the world through himself does not know the horror of "earth fire". I have many dreams, ideals, and fantasies. However, when I implement these ideas in the real world, I feel that I have no way to start, no landing point, and I feel confused and helpless. To this, Da Liu's answer was: "Just do it, don't think too much." This "Ten Thousand Households"-like experiment led Liu Cixin to kill "Liu Xin" to make herself mature and better able to adapt to this society, and Liu's realism finally replaced his idealism. Liu Xin's idea caused a sensation at the time. It was a breakthrough innovation and a great feat that changed the world and prevented war. It reminds me of a sentence in the Taoist Book: "The dreams of young people are conducive to the development of mankind." But the wheels of history are rolling, and who remembers Liu Xin, an unknown person? If you are smart, you must know how future generations will evaluate you. People in the past were so stupid and people in the past were so difficult.
A technological innovation may not be noticeable in the short term, but Mr. Liu is good at extending the time scale. Just like the expansion principle of the butterfly effect, the impact is gradually expanding, which is deeply shocking.
Author Liu Cixin, protagonist Liu Xin
Just do it, don't think too much We don't need to long for the so-called good times of the past, when life was full of difficulties, dangers, and confusion; nor do we need to be overly depressed about today's era, because today and one day will be called the good times of the past. People in the past were so stupid and people in the past were so difficult.
It took me fifteen minutes to read "Earth Fire". After reading it, two sentences kept echoing in my mind: "Just do it, don't think too much." "People in the past were so stupid, and people in the past were so difficult."
I think this book is about new technologies. People nowadays place too much emphasis on benefits. If this technology does more harm than good, then it is sinful. If the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, it is merit. Maybe some technologies require a certain amount of loss, but that doesn't mean it's wrong.
People in the past were so stupid and people in the past were so difficult. We are the "people in the past" described in the book. Life now is indeed difficult, but there is no choice. No matter how difficult it is, we must continue to live!
It's good to watch, but I feel like I haven't seen enough yet😂 Tribute to Liu Cixin and all science fiction novelists! ! !
We don't need to long for the so-called good times of the past, when life was full of difficulties, dangers, and confusion; nor do we need to be overly depressed about today's era, because today and one day will be called the good times of the past. People in the past were so stupid and people in the past were so difficult.
People in the past were so stupid and people in the past were so difficult. This is a good book, a good book that even people who have not learned much will be amazed after reading it. The character creation is not rigid, but vivid and vivid. Worth a look.
People in the past were so stupid and people in the past were so difficult. The good old days. Do more, don't overthink. Do more, don't overthink. [Praise]
Words are powerful, and so are dreams. When you work hard for them, he is equated with glory. People in the future don't understand people now, why are they working so hard? Why so stupid? Just like people today may not understand why, the martyrs had the courage to resist.
This work reminds me of the memory of the revolutionary martyrs. The peaceful and convenient life we have now will not be available in the 20th century. They are all created by the hard work of more or less pioneers, so people cannot exist alone without society. Likewise, we must have a heart of awe, remember history, and give back to society.
Every step forward in science and technology is based on countless efforts and costs!
We don't need to long for the so-called good times of the past, when life was full of difficulties, dangers, and confusion; nor do we need to be overly depressed about today's era, because today and one day will be called the good times of the past.
The source of inspiration for the whistleblower movie is bloody real life.
Beautiful and touching
Yes! People in the past were so stupid and people in the past were so difficult.
It's pretty good. I'm sorry I watched it too late.
Liu's book directly addresses the weaknesses in human nature, but it is precisely because of these weaknesses that we are "human"
Time always changes! The past imagines the future, and the future considers the past.
Ignorance now, knowledge tomorrow
There are many feelings. The black carbon that miners enter with every breath is their blood and sweat; Liu Xin's idea may be right, but it will only be right after 100 years; things that people thought were common in the past have become treasures and history a hundred years later...
I have been lucky enough to see some of Liu Dada's other works before, but this one can be said to be closer to the status quo. OK, 9.6 Points (not [learned]
The present will eventually become the past
