Why do many people hate Cheng Xin in "The Three-Body Problem", but sympathize with Ye Wenjie? Ye Wenjie's unforgivable mistake was to expose the location of the earthlings to the Trisolarans, while Cheng Xin sent human civilization to a dead end three times.
Ye Wenjie is pessimistic and disappointed in human civilization because of her own tragic experience. Her motivation for sending a message to the Trisolarans is to help improve the inferiority of human civilization through the Trisolaran civilization. When she discovered the ambition of the Trisolarans to invade the earth, as atonement, she told Luo Ji the law of the "dark forest" she had comprehended, indirectly saving human civilization.
What Ye Wenjie did is understandable. But Cheng Xin's series of "Virgin" behaviors seem inexplicable. She first took the initiative to give Yun Tianming's head to the trisolarans, and then was elected as the sword bearer in the guilt of Yun Tianming. Her motive for participating in the campaign for the Sword Bearer is not to deter the Trisolarans to save humanity, but to punish herself in order to eliminate the guilt towards Yun Tianming.
Cheng Xin didn't know anything about the laws of the "Dark Forest", her deterrence level against the Trisolarans was less than 20%, and at the moment of completing the handover of the sword-wielding people, the Trisolarans did not hesitate to attack. If it weren't for the location of the three-body galaxy that Blue Space had launched into space, Earth civilization would have been destroyed.
The second time is the study of curvature spacecraft. The research on curvature spacecraft led by Vader made a major breakthrough, but because a small number of people fled the earth and did not conform to human morality, the research on curvature spacecraft was forced to stop. Vader threatens the coalition government to continue the research on the curvature spacecraft, and the decision is once again left to Cheng Xin's hands.
She terminated her research plan, and the successful development of the curvature spacecraft was delayed for 35 years. It was this crucial 35 years that led to the two-dimensional two-dimensional foil of the solar system thrown by the "singer", and human beings could not escape at the speed of light with the help of curvature spacecraft and go to destruction.
However, Cheng Xin, who was the least worthy of surviving, escaped on the only curvature spaceship built by Luo Ji. There was still hope for the continuation of human civilization, the new colonies that galactic humans have established. What makes people even more uncomfortable is that at the critical moment when the universe zeroed, Cheng Xin continued to die, leaving behind five kilograms of cosmic mass, resulting in the universe unable to zero and restart, and eventually destroyed.
Ye Wenjie is a normal person, and her special growth experience is hateful. But Cheng Xin seems to be kind and upright, in line with human morality, but her behavior is more stupid every time. The point is that she is still stupid and does not know it, and every big mistake seems justified. #在头条读三体全集 #
