Specific analysis of the three body problem, introduction to the content of the three body problem

You're eating children there.

The main content of "The Three-Body Problem":

"Three-Body Problem" is a series of long-form science fiction ** created by Liu Cixin, consisting of "Three-Body Problem", "Three-Body Problem Dark Forest", and "Three-Body Problem Death Eternal". The work tells the story of the information exchange, life-and-death struggle between the earth's human civilization and the three-body civilization, and the rise and fall of the two civilizations in the universe. Its first part was translated by Liu Yukun and won the Best Feature Award at the 73rd Hugo Awards.

The three-body problem is about a group of aliens, their home planet, there are three suns, Xihu for some reason this three-body system can not be stabilized, it will collapse at every turn, so they are ready to change places to live. The three-body problem is preparing for interstellar immigration, but the universe is so big, as far as the eye can see, there is a dead black everywhere, and I don't know how to migrate to **, so the three-body problem has made thousands of space stations to listen to the signal to see if there is anything that can be connected.

The background of the creation of "The Three-Body Problem".

Liu Cixin's childhood was spent in the late 70s of the twentieth century, and his youth was in the early 80s, when the whole people admired science and technology, and it was a glorious period for science fiction literature to be held in China.

In March 2006, in an interview with "Science Fiction King", Liu Cixin revealed a recent writing plan for a long-form trilogy series, describing a special process of human beings from the time he was born to five hundred years later, and the first part has been completed.

**The content has been edited to a certain extent, and the author has written it in the past year or so, and the book was published in 2008. The second book, The Dark Forest, was also published in 2008, and the third, Death and Eternal, was published in November 2010.

I am a person with sensitive and delicate perceptions, sensitive and deep thoughts, and the thoughts in my head are easily disturbed by reality, and then I keep performing calculations like a computer without a terminator. In short, it's easy to overthink. This sometimes makes me more enlightened and enlightened; However, it is more meaningless thinking, which makes the brain messy, makes people stunned, and even the execution power has declined.

According to my own judgment, I still did too little, experienced too little, read too little, and fell into the vicious circle of "thinking without learning" (I am not afraid of "learning without thinking", but we must be careful of "thinking without learning"). So, I decided to read books, read good books!

In 3 days, I finished watching "The Three-Body Problem" on my mobile phone. In the process of reading, I am often amazed by Da Liu's language expression ability. In particular, the clever use of metaphor makes the novel science fiction imagination concrete and sensible, and it also has the author's emotions.

After reading it, I pondered deeply and was full of stamina. I always unconsciously substitute into the future world described in the text, unable to extricate myself, sad that in the infinite universe and infinite time, I am so small and short, I can't even turn a wave, and I can't leave any traces. Where do people come from?

What are you going to do? Where do they end? Human beings struggle between technology and human nature, will they eventually create a pastoral or fall into the abyss?

The last time I had such a deep feeling, it was after reading Huang Yi's "Interstellar Prodigal", I was fascinated by the human immortality technology and light-speed interstellar travel technology described in the text, looking up at space and crying, lamenting that I may never be able to get rid of this small earth in this life and go to those shining stars.

The Three-Body Problem is a very good book, worthy of the Hugo Award-winning masterpiece, and I will definitely reread it in the future. Here are some excerpts that touched my heart, and the following are my thoughts:

The passage in Liu Cixin's "Three-Body Problem" in which the pure faction is eliminated by Mike Evans and his "Lord" leads to the content of the three-body intelligent person's use of brain waves to communicate and lead to the full transparency of thinking, which should be regarded as a loophole in the evolution of biological knowledge.

In the three-body world, it is very difficult for life forms to survive and obtain external nutrients that support life (see early earth humans basically ate a meal for two or three days), and its evolutionary direction must be to develop in the two directions of energy saving and envy and high efficiency, neither of which can be wasted. The difference in power consumption between "thinking" using brainwaves and "talking" communicating directly with brainwaves is at least three to four orders of magnitude. The farther the distance between individuals, the greater the gap - there will even be a lack of "input power" - the "neural network" is overheated, and even the body's circulatory system** cannot keep up and "down".

Therefore, the evolutionary direction of the three-body intelligent person will inevitably realize the use of a low-power state to think and remember, and the short-term high-power state to achieve brainwave communication. It is impossible to maintain a state of full-time thinking and full transparency.
