Cloud Whale Chronicles

The "Great Fantasy" sci-fi classic series includes four parts: "Sunfall", "Song of the Earth", "Endless Farewell" and "Cloud Whale Chronicles". Since Liu Cixin's "The Three-Body Problem" won the Hugo Award and the domestic science fiction film "The Wandering Earth" became popular, Chinese science fiction literature, which had been silent, has entered an active and prosperous era. Many works have been selected into Chinese textbooks, and many articles have been included in the Chinese language examination papers for high school and college entrance examinations. Chen Qiufan, Zhang Ran, Baoshu, and Aque are four young science fiction writers with broad vision. They are recognized as the standard bearers of the golden generation of Chinese science fiction. Their works are different from the chronological background and knowledge system of Wang Jinkang and Liu Cixin. Their works are more innovative and predictive with bright ideas and imagination. They are must-read works that are more in line with the tastes of young readers in the new era. Among them, "The Sun Falls" is a typical collection of Zhang Ran's hard science fiction classics, including seven works such as "When the Sun Falls", "Going Home", "A Small City", "Goodbye Doraemon", "Emotional Fallacies", "Welcome to Samona" and "Three Stories of a Man and a Dog". The styles of his works are varied, ranging from tenderness to coldness, with a strong sense of déjà vu and substitution. In the story, the author describes for us a scene of a future space military war. One day in the future, when you look up at the sky, the burning fire is not the end of the world, nor a dream, but a new battlefield of human desire. "Song of the Earth" is a collection of science fiction works featuring Baoshu's space epic. It includes ten wonderful stories such as "The Song of the Ancient Earth", "Amnesty Experiment", "Fleeing Time", "Forget-the-Wood Grass", "Talk", "Master Zhao", "Ghost Trio", "Spring Story", "Ba Lin" and "Still in the Mirror". The story describes people's thousand-year journey among the stars, being imprisoned in a small spaceship environment for generations, and persisting in their faith in order not to lose their will. "Endless Farewell" is a collection of works featuring Chen Qiufan's philosophical science fiction, including "Endless Farewell", "V is for Victory", "There's a Blackout, Let's Go to the South", "Song Xiuyun", "Fireworks in Apona Maya", "The Wind Rises" and "My College Entrance Examination", etc. Seven works have shaped science fiction into a more realistic reality. In the story, the protagonist suffers from severe Alzheimer's disease, but is spotted by the military and conducts a conversation experiment with civilized creatures on the seabed. Why are we born and where is the end of life? These philosophical questions gradually played out in his mind. In the vast starry sky, although people will be lost due to loss of memory, love will never be lost. "Cloud Whale Chronicles" is a collection of works based on Ah Que's romantic science fiction emotions. It includes eight novels, including "Cloud Whale Chronicles", "Flowers of the Other Shore", "Chewing", "Apocrypha of Love", "Future History", "Year of the Rat", "Three Feet of Snow in Jinyang" and "First Contact". The sadness under the humor highlights the extreme romance. In the story of "Cloud Whale", in order to collect the ashes of his ex-girlfriend on an alien planet, the protagonist traveled across the distance of light years and discovered a more beautiful world of cloud whales, and also discovered the reason why his girlfriend left him in the first place. The beautiful cloud whale world and the lingering love make people still fascinated and moved in the imagined science fiction world.
