Liu Cixin: Looking forward to "The Wandering Earth 2" involving Chinese culture

The film "The Wandering Earth," adapted from Liu Cixin's novel of the same name, has been a huge success, with a cumulative box office of more than 4.6 billion yuan, ranking second in China's box office history. At the recent "Another Planet" science fiction conference held in Beijing, Liu Cixin expressed his hope to see "The Wandering Earth 2."

Liu Cixin said: "I am eager to see the sequel to The Wandering Earth. Chinese culture has always been seen on our land, and I am looking forward to seeing Chinese culture from the perspective of the starry sky. This is also my expectation for the sequel to The Wandering Earth."

Previously, director Guo Fan said that facing the same background of the earth crisis, the idea of ​​Westerners in making science fiction stories is to "choose to leave and find a new home", while the Chinese "wander with the earth". Guo Fan believes that such cognitive differences stem from the long-standing cultural differences between the East and the West, and joked that because of China's high housing prices, the Chinese always consider "houses" first.
