3 body problem (book trilogy and TV series)

[Pekelo]

I have finished the Netflix series last week first, brought to us by the GoT producers. Pretty good and it borrows from the 2nd book too. It is mainly in the UK, easier for Westerners to follow the characters.

Now I am working my way through the Amazon Prime Chinese series with subtitles. It has 30 episodes, that is a lot of reading. My Chinese is not up to standard, I need the subs. Very different from the Netflix series, and honestly, just how often can you watch a Chinese contemporary movie? (that happens to be a sci-fi) There is a detective in this who happens to be the comedic sidekick.

The 3 body problem is a, well here it is:

Here is a very cool visualization of some of the stable systems:

Murdering a man sometimes dubbed China's "billionaire millennial" - the gaming tycoon Lin Qi, whose company Yoozoo Games owns the rights for film adaptations of the Chinese science fiction epic.

According to the court, Xu Yao, who was known as a distinguished lawyer, became consumed by professional rivalry after Lin sidelined him shortly after he helped land the Netflix deal in 2020.

Within months of this apparent slight, Lin was dead - the victim of a poisoning plot described as both "premeditated" and "extremely despicable" by the court last week.
