You read a pop sci fi book and are surprised when you get pop sci fi? Chinese culture tends to place much more emphasis on prose in general in pop books in my experience but you picked one of the worst examples of that. That series is very strongly influenced by western sci fi culture so I find it really funny that you use it as an example of chinese culture being worse.

Whoa I never said Chinese culture is worse and I certainly dont think that, why the needless fabulated attack?

I just didnt like the books apart from technological aspects that much, is it that hard to understand and accept that some folks look for more than just wow-what-a-cool-description-of-4D-in-3D?

It was pushed from all directions as something spectacular and well, that bar lies much higher for some, thats all.
