Since China’s first homemade sci-fi movie “The Wandering Earth” opened throughout the United States last week, the movie has amazed the whole world with its outstanding imagination, winning applause and encouragement for Chinese filmmakers.

“The Wandering Earth” is based on a short story with the same name by Liu Cixin, China’s top Chinese science-fiction writer and the first in China to win the prestigious Hugo Award. It takes place in a faraway future when the dying sun threatens to destroy all life on earth. The United World Government made a surprising plan to physically move the entire planet to become a safer, distant star.

“The Wandering Earth” has become the winner of the Chinese box office during the week-long Spring Festival holiday that ended on Sunday, taking in a huge 1.94 billion yuan (288 million U.S. dollars) in just six days. The success of the film in the box office is a clear indication of the growing popularity of homegrown sci-fi in China.

“The movie actually shows lots of differences between American culture (Hollywood movie) and Chinese culture. For example, I'll accept running away in spaceships in Hollywood movies when Earth is no longer good for human. But in Chinese culture, we will never leave our home. We will try our best and bring everyone together. This is what we saw in the movie: we put 10,000 engines on Earth and run away together,” wrote a Chinese audience in his post.

In fact, this movie has made Liu Cixin, the author of the book “The Wondering Earth “which together with other two books makes a complete series, under the spotlight again these days. Liu Cixin, born in June 1963, is a representative of the new generation of Chinese science fiction authors and recognized as a leading voice in Chinese science fiction. His works have powerful atmosphere and brilliant imagination. Liu Cixin’s stories successfully connect the hard truth of human society together with cool science. He has created a special Chinese style of science fiction. That’s why the movie attracts us.
