在2019年上映的电影《流浪地球》的票房和口碑俱佳，大受欢迎。这是首都国产硬科幻电影，堪称中国硬科幻电影的里程碑。《流浪地球》汇聚了时代热点话题，是中国梦的隐喻性、转喻性表达，特别是电影体现的那种把地球推离太阳系、带着地球流浪、堪比“女娲补天”“精卫填海”的民族精神，以及某种隐约可见的家庭伦理叙事构架，都是具有中国特色的。该部电影深刻影响了中国电影生产的格局，引发了“中国硬科幻电影元年”的说法，在中国电影类型建设上具有里程碑式的意义。;ThesunisgoingtoexpandintotheorbitofMercury(水星)accordingtoscientificcalculations,whichwillresultintheentireEarthcatchingfire,killingalllifeontheplanet.Inordertosurvive,theUnitedEarthGovernmentinstallsabout10,000giantenginesontheEarthtopoweritawayfromitsinitialorbitandfleetoAlphaCentauri.Thewholetripisexpectedtolast2,500years,duringwhichtimehumankindwillgothroughabout100generations.Yet,astheEarthapproachesJupiter,thegasgiantshugegravitationalforcecapturestheplanetandthreatenstoteartheEarthapartwithindays.Whowillsavetheworld?;Thisimaginativetaleisattheheartofthescience-fictionmovieTheWanderingEarth.TheoriginalnovelwaswrittenbyLiuCixin,oneofChinasmostremarkablescience-fictionwritersandawinnerofthe2015HugoAwardforhisnovelTheThree-BodyProblem.UnlikemanyAmericanspace-themedfilmswherethesolutiontoadisastertheEarthfacesisalwaysfleeingtheplanet,peopleinthefilmaretakingtheEarthwiththem.Thefilm,whichisthecountrysmostsuccessfulscience-fictionfilmofalltime,hasofferedadifferentandmoreambitiousidea.The“ambition”doesntcomefromnowhere.Forthousandsofyears,the“homeland”hastakenrootsintheheartsandmindsofChinesepeople.OneoldidiomthatshowsastrongfeelingthatChinesepeoplehavehadfortheirhomelandis“luoyeguigen”，whichmeansreturningtooneshomelandatanoldage,likefallenleavesreturningtotherootsoftheirtree.;Moreimportantly，TheWanderingEarthisthefirst“made-in-China”science-fictionmovieonthebigscreen,astheoriginalnovelwaswrittenbyaChineseauthorandthedirecto
