A lot of Chinese viewers wish Netflix had stripped China out of ‘3 Body Problem’

Live Mint  

SINGAPORE—Netflix’s newest high-powered sci-fi drama, “3 Body Problem," is one of the biggest cultural events to come out of China in years. “3 Body Problem" is the long-awaited adaptation of a critically acclaimed series of science-fiction novels by Chinese writer Liu Cixin. For China, which has seen its cultural appeal in the West wane amid the country’s increasing inward turn and geopolitical tensions, the release of the show’s first season on Thursday was a closely watched moment for millions of Chinese sci-fi fans. While Liu’s novels linger in China and feature mostly Chinese characters, the Netflix version quickly shifts to the U.K. and features an international cast.
