Science fiction, or sci-fi, with more themes related to environmental issues, overpopulation, and

technological growth, has explosively ( 爆 发 地) grown in popularity since the beginning of the 21st

century. 1
Some Chinese Sci-Fi History

2 Few works were translated. And the Western world had little to no taste for it.

The history of Chinese sci-fi is extensive, but the modern genre first took root during the 1900s.

Authors such as Lu Xun promoted sci-fi s early development in China and translated multiple Western

stories like Jules Verne s From the Earth to the Moon. Following the 1970s, China began its own golden

age of science fiction. Movies, clubs, magazines, societies and communities formed around this genre and

became increasingly popular among Chinese readers. 3

Its Entry into the West

Chinese sci-fi has become internationally recognized, mainly because of Ken Liu, who translated The

Three-Body Problem, the first contemporary Chinese sci-fi novel to be translated into English. 4

Chinese sci-fi s introduction into the West began with this novel, and it couldn t have been given a better

international debut ( 亮相). Liu has become a go-to source for Chinese authors seeking international
audiences.

What Makes Chinese Sci-Fi Distinctive(独特的)

The subgenre is unique for using a number of cultural and traditional objects, words, places and

beliefs. 5 The stories are also different because many modern Chinese sci-fi authors were heavily

affected by the events of the 20th century. Their perspectives(思维方式) and ideas on morals, ethics(伦

理), government, politics, science and anything in between come from standpoints previously unknown to

Western readers.
