The Mirror

After reading this book, all my feelings can be summed up in two words: "shocked". I also read some book reviews and Zhang Ping's, and my two favorite sentences are "When the water is clear, there will be no fish" and "We can spurn the darkness, but please allow them to exist." Before watching "Mirror", I watched "Unanswered Earth". The content was very similar to what the world would be like if there was no so-called "dark side". In "The Unresponsive Earth", by changing the DNA sequence of human beings (perhaps no longer called "human beings"), all bad characteristics, such as fatness, stupidity, ugliness, and even freckles, etc., Are eliminated through recombinant DNA sequences, making all human beings become highly similar so-called "Perfect Body" and then the protagonist smashes a test tube storing a virus (due to the same genes, the virus can kill 99% of "perfect humans" within 10 minutes) (it's just the first half of the story, the second half has little relevance to this book so I won't talk about it yet) For example, The reason why a living thing has existed for so long is because of the diversity of genes. When it comes to genetic diversity, we have to talk about "mutation" (of course it is not Godzilla with three heads and six arms, but macroscopic variation in biology). Variation is not directional. This is a recognized fact. If it is not directional, it will always be the same. There must be good and bad, and we can work backwards. Without the bad parts, there would be no variation or genetic diversity. The entire species would be highly similar and extremely fragile (remember there is a piece of knowledge that needs to be memorized in the biology book: the more species an ecosystem has, the more stable it will be). Sorry, this is a bit off topic. In short, there is light only when there is darkness. Without darkness, the so-called light is just ordinary to us. Of course, "light" will no longer exist. The black and white world only exists in fairy tales, and most people are just chaotic gray. If the water is clear, there will be no fish. This saying is not just a natural phenomenon.

A fantasy story, but it deeply reflects the darkness of reality, but it also tolerates darkness, because a world with only light may not be good. We can spurn darkness, but please allow them to exist.

Black and white are in opposition. Without opposition, there would be no black or white. We must clearly understand black and white, uphold integrity, and find a balance between black and white so as not to get lost in the light.

Ohhhhh, incredible, this short story is so shocking. Everything Bai Bing did in the end shows that he still has reason, but in the end the mirror era was born. That kind of despair is really exciting (what am I talking about)

The endings of Liu's books are always so disappointing and thought-provoking

When the water is extremely clear, there are no fish; when people observe it, there are no disciples. Is the confirmation of quantum mechanics just a misunderstanding caused by the limitations of human knowledge? How about the misunderstanding that our ancestors once misunderstood natural weather as accidental due to limited knowledge? We may really live in a world that has been predestined for a long time, but we are subject to various restrictions and think it is accidental and uncertain. But perhaps it is this uncertainty that allows us to cherish and pursue various fantasies and create various cultures and sciences. When the mirror comes, we are restricted by shackles and authority. Once we exceed the rules, we will be criticized. However, looking back at history, the changes at that time were not the breaking of the original rules, whether it was the system or the science. Light is the opposite of darkness. When we are completely unaware of darkness, when we see light, will we still know that it is light? This comment only represents my own ignorant point of view, and is not intended to start a fight, argue, or harm others.

After reading this book, I first want to repent for my "sins" of more than ten years... (๑ŏ ŏ๑ ) Reality is all gray, why do we always have to distinguish between black and white? But this is how the school educates you. To be an upright person, you must not be afraid of rights... In reality, our elders teach us to be tactful and to please others... (Of course, it's not the extreme kind) In the end, I think it would be better for me to live in such a brighter society...

It's the same Liu style as always, the kind that makes a lot of efforts, but in the end the god of death will always be there, and everything will follow the wind. In short, there is nothing to explain the rating of Da Liu's book, just read it (broken sound)

After reading this, I decided to challenge the Provincial Party Committee Courtyard

The great thing about Liu Cixin is that his works not only contain scientific fantasies, but also thoughts on society. His language is extremely calm, and he likes to create calm and even indifferent characters. The logic of his story telling is so reasonable that it is almost true. He also likes to leave confirmation of the story after telling it.
