Today we will introduce a character at the bottom of Da Liu's works, known as the sextant, this person is the famous Ding Yi.
The reason why people call it a sextant is because he has appeared in Six works by Da Liu, namely "Collapse", "Chaowen Dao", "Microscopic End", "Ball Lightning", "Three-Body" series and "Time Migration".
Although Ding Yi did not appear as the protagonist, without him you will feel the shortcomings, he is like a condiment in cooking. Since I have only seen Ding Yi in "The Three-Body Problem", other works are being read, and the character of Ding Yi will be introduced later, and today I will talk about his performance in the three-body.
In the three-body Ding Yi is a physicist, of course, in other works he is also this identity, but also in the university as a professor, a professor of physics. And after waking up in the future, he also taught at the university. While all the people were immersed in the fantasy of the great war of the century, only he seemed worried. His predictions proved correct, and humanity returned home in that space battle. Ding Yi chose to be the first person to contact an alien civilization, and later turned into dust with the fleet when he later detected the water droplets of the Trisolaran probe.
Although Ding Yi is not the protagonist character, he is a clue character, and he is always able to connect some seemingly unrelated and some plots and connect the clue characters. A rational physicist, a man of great knowledge, full of anxiety and uneasiness about the future of mankind, it is precisely because of his knowledge of physics that he feels how arrogant and arrogant human beings are.
In fact, what is even more sad is not the invasion of alien civilizations, as if human beings only know the same hatred at the moment when they feel the disaster of destruction. In the words of Mingyue that year, the lesson we have learned from history is that we have never learned lessons from history.
