The release of Netflix's series 3 Body Problem has been watched millions of times around the globe since its release late last month.
It has even found an audience in China where Netflix is unavailable, sparking much chatter among viewers of the series.
But many fans of the three-book series, credited with propelling China's nascent science fiction genre after its publication in 2008, have also been paying attention to a court room in Shanghai where one of the key players behind the adaptation was sentenced to death just a day after the show's release.
His crime? Murdering a man sometimes dubbed China's "billionaire millennial" - the gaming tycoon Lin Qi, whose company Yoozoo Games owns the rights for film adaptations of the Chinese science fiction epic.
According to the court, Xu Yao, who was known as a distinguished lawyer, became consumed by professional rivalry after Lin sidelined him shortly after he helped land the Netflix deal in 2020.
Within months of this apparent slight, Lin was dead - the victim of a poisoning plot described as both "premeditated" and "extremely despicable" by the court last week.
For fans of The Three-Body Problem, which features an alien civilisation and is set against the backdrop of China's Cultural Revolution, the parallels were clear.
"At least we know that Xu Yao and Lin Qi have read The Three-Body Problem thoroughly. Lose your humanity and you lose a lot; lose your animal nature and you lose everything," said one comment on China's Weibo.
Lin and Xu were reportedly on good terms at the start: Lin had appointed Xu to spearhead a subsidiary called The Three Body Universe a year after he joined Yoozoo as the company's chief risk officer in 2017.
The subsidiary was in charge of securing intellectual property rights for the film adaptations, and the two had worked closely together in brokering the deal to adapt the novel into a Netflix original series.
But they fell out when Lin - who founded Yoozoo in 2009 - decided to put other executives in charge of business operations, local reports said. Xu, authorities allege, began to plot.
Some reports said he set up a company in Japan to acquire the lethal substances and even tested them on animals. Xu then disguised the substances as probiotic pills and gave them to Lin.
Lin checked himself into the hospital when he felt unwell after taking the pills, and was initially in stable condition. But his condition took a dramatic turn - he died 10 days later, on Christmas Day 2020, at the age of 39. At the time, he was believed to have had a net worth of around 6.8bn yuan (£745m; $941m), according to the Hurun China Rich List
Four other people fell sick from drinking poisoned beverages in the Yoozoo office but survived, the court heard.
Following his death, Yoozoo issued a statement on its official Weibo microblog which read: "Goodbye youth... We will be together, continue to be kind, continue to believe in goodness, and continue the fight against all that is bad."
His death shocked China's gaming and technology sectors and sparked widespread speculation, but it took years for the full details to emerge - despite Xu being detained within days.
The Three-Body Problem is the first book in a trilogy called Remembrance of Earth's Past, by Chinese author Liu Cixin. The novel has been translated into close to 30 languages since it was published in Chinese.
The Netflix show, stylised as the 3 Body Problem, debuted with 11 million views in its first four days and has remained among Netflix's most-watched programmes since its release on 21 March.
The series is one of the most expensive projects undertaken by the streaming giant, with a reported budget of $160m for eight episodes. Its co-creators include Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weis and the book's author Mr Liu. Lin is posthumously credited as an executive producer.
It earned positive reviews in China but has also drawn some criticism for its detailed portrayal of the Cultural Revolution and for allegedly shortchanging the Chinese themes in the original work.
Yoozoo also owns rights to the Chinese television series Three-Body, which premiered last year, as well as animation and stage adaptations of The Three-Body Problem.

The Bizarre Chinese Murder Plot Behind Netflix’s ‘3 Body Problem’
Mon, April 1, 2024 at 10:43 AM PDT
Lin Qi spent millions to buy the rights to a Chinese science-fiction novel called “The Three-Body Problem” but was murdered before it launched as a television series.
Lin Qi was a billionaire with a dream. The video game tycoon had wanted to turn one of China’s most famous science-fiction novels,
“The Three-Body Problem,” into a global hit. He had started working with Netflix and the creators of the HBO series “Game of Thrones” to bring the alien invasion saga to international audiences.
But Lin did not live to see “3 Body Problem” premiere on Netflix last month, drawing millions of viewers.
He was poisoned to death in Shanghai in 2020, at age 39, by a disgruntled colleague, in a killing that riveted the country’s tech and video-gaming circles where he had been a prominent rising star. That colleague, Xu Yao, a 43-year-old former executive in Lin’s company, was sentenced last month to death for murder by a court in Shanghai, which called his actions “extremely despicable.”
The court has made few specific details public, but Lin’s killing was, as a Chinese news outlet put it, “as bizarre as a Hollywood blockbuster.” Chinese media reports, citing sources in his company and court documents, have described a tale of deadly corporate ambition and rivalry with a macabre edge. Sidelined at work, Xu reportedly exacted vengeance with meticulous planning, including by testing poisons on small animals in a makeshift lab. (He not only killed Lin, but poisoned his own replacement.)
Lin had spent millions of dollars in 2014 buying up copyrights and licenses connected to the original Chinese science-fiction book, “The Three-Body Problem,” and two others in a trilogy written by Chinese author Liu Cixin. “The Three-Body Problem” tells the story of an engineer, called upon by Chinese authorities to look into a spate of suicides by scientists, who discovers an extraterrestrial plot. Lin had wanted to build a franchise of global television shows and films akin to “Star Wars” and centered on the novels.
Lin would eventually link up with David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, creators of the television series “Game of Thrones,” to work on the Netflix project. Lin’s gaming company, Youzu Interactive, which goes by Yoozoo in English, is no stranger to the HBO hit; its best-known release is an online strategy game based on the show called “Game of Thrones: Winter Is Coming.”
Lin’s fate would change when he hired Xu, a lawyer, in 2017 to head a Yoozoo subsidiary called The Three-Body Universe that held the rights to Liu’s novels. But not long afterward, Xu was demoted and his pay was cut, apparently because of poor performance. He became furious, according to Chinese business magazine Caixin.
As Xu plotted his revenge, Caixin reported, he built a lab in an outlying district of Shanghai where he experimented with hundreds of poisons he bought off the dark web by testing them on dogs, cats and other pets. Caixin said Xu was both fascinated and inspired by the American hit TV series “Breaking Bad,” about a cancer-stricken chemistry teacher who teaches himself to make and sell methamphetamine, eventually becoming a drug lord.
Between September and December 2020, Xu began spiking beverages such as coffee, whiskey and drinking water with methylmercury chloride and bringing them into the office, Caixin reported, citing court documents. The report’s details could not be independently confirmed.
Calls to Yoozoo and the Shanghai court went unanswered. Netflix did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
“The plot is as bizarre as a Hollywood blockbuster, and the technique is professional enough to be called the Chinese version of ‘Breaking Bad,’” Phoenix News, a Chinese news outlet, said last month.
According to a story by The Hollywood Reporter in January, Benioff said the killing was “certainly disconcerting.” “When you work in this business, you’re expecting all sorts of issues to arise. Somebody poisoning the boss is not generally one of them,” he was quoted as saying.
Police arrested Xu on Dec. 18, 2020, the Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court said on its official WeChat account as it announced the verdict and sentencing. Xu reportedly declined to confess to the crime and did not disclose what poison he had used, complicating doctors’ efforts to save Lin’s life.
The court said Xu had plotted to poison Lin and four other people over an office dispute. Its post included a picture of a bespectacled Xu in the courtroom wearing an oversize beige cardigan surrounded by three police officers. The statement said more than 50 people, including members of Xu’s family and Lin’s family, attended the sentencing.
The Three-Body Universe, the Yoozoo subsidiary, did not respond to a request for comment, but its CEO, Zhao Jilong, posted on his WeChat account, “Justice has been served,” according to Chinese state media.
Before his untimely death, Lin was something of a celebrity in the world of young Chinese entrepreneurs. He had built his fortune in the early 2010s, riding a wave of popularity for mobile games. His bid to popularize Liu’s novels was a rare attempt to export Chinese popular culture — something that has eluded China as its government yearns to wield the same soft power the United States commands with its movies, music and sports stars.
Six years after “The Three-Body Problem” was first published in 2008, an English version translated by Ken Liu was released to widespread acclaim. The book won the Hugo Award, a major science-fiction prize, for best novel. It counted Barack Obama and Mark Zuckerberg among its fans.
Although Netflix is not available in China, “3 Body Problem” has still set off a backlash among Chinese viewers who have been able to access the platform by using virtual private networks, or who have seen pirated versions of the show. Users on Chinese social media expressed anger that the Netflix adaptation Westernized aspects of the story, and said the show sought to demonize some of the Chinese characters.
Even the People’s Liberation Army’s propaganda wing has weighed in on the series. In an editorial published Saturday on its website, China Military Online, it called the Netflix series an example of American “cultural hegemony.”
“It can be clearly seen that after the United States seized this popular intellectual property with its superpower strength, it wanted to transform and remake it,” the editorial said. “The purpose was to eliminate as much as possible the reputation of modern China.”

I posted the wrong article. I was trying to post about the lawyer being sentenced to death
Let me break down why I call this psuedo intelligent movie at best nerd porn at worst borderline retarded.
1- So the show is about aliens with all types of technology including super quantum computers and the ability to change what we see with technology, yet they seek us humans to help solve the three-body problem (basically the orbital mechanics of three bodies) This is like us inventing a time machine going back in time to ask Newton to solve the current energy problem.
2- They apparently have studied humans yet do not have a clue to what lying is, oh but isn't deceiving humans having them believe that physics is broken lying?
3- Then the Korean chick who grew up in North Korea and witnessed her father die at the hands of the Communist rebels, was so disgusted at unjust oppression that she decided to invite aliens to come over to Earth to oppress the whole planet.
4- Next the aliens come up with a brilliant plan to fudge physics results to hamper the human's technological advancement, except in the areas, of creating cybergenic body freezing, super rockets sails that are propelled by a thousand detonated atomic bombs, while never explaining how they were able to build these many rockets, that can lift that big of a payload that far. Keep in mind they were able to do this with broken technology. And why send a head, what was he supposed to do?
5- According to science our planet would not be able to support life if it weren't for our extra-large moon (relative to the planet) yet the aliens were able to survive and evolve with that much shit going on.
In conclusion, I guess the less you know about physics the easier the show is to digest, but to me, that movie tried too hard to look smart, almost like the writers learned all they know about physics from YouTube shock videos. But my biggest problem is that they could have made the same show without all the bullshit physics, and if their writing skills were decent it could have been a decent production. But then again it would have looked like this.

All this.
And so many dei ex machina it was hard to keep track. I enjoyed it tho. I also forgot it immediately the credits rolled.

I didn't watch the whole thing, but I had to watch the often spoke about ep. 5 with the ship. So my question is
how did they figure that that weapon wouldn't destroy the hard drive they were so desperate to get?
i had the same question
also they were talking about mass casualties if the sent a swat unit in there....then they killed everyone onboard including kids....
that was my other question, but the head dude was like fuck them kids, their parents sealed their fate. when they did what they did, at least that part was reasonably answered as to why.

3 Body Problem: Lawyer sentenced to death for Lin Qi murder

The release of Netflix's series 3 Body Problem has been watched millions of times around the globe since its release late last month.
It has even found an audience in China where Netflix is unavailable, sparking much chatter among viewers of the series.
But many fans of the three-book series, credited with propelling China's nascent science fiction genre after its publication in 2008, have also been paying attention to a court room in Shanghai where one of the key players behind the adaptation was sentenced to death just a day after the show's release.
His crime? Murdering a man sometimes dubbed China's "billionaire millennial" - the gaming tycoon Lin Qi, whose company Yoozoo Games owns the rights for film adaptations of the Chinese science fiction epic.
According to the court, Xu Yao, who was known as a distinguished lawyer, became consumed by professional rivalry after Lin sidelined him shortly after he helped land the Netflix deal in 2020.
Within months of this apparent slight, Lin was dead - the victim of a poisoning plot described as both "premeditated" and "extremely despicable" by the court last week.
For fans of The Three-Body Problem, which features an alien civilisation and is set against the backdrop of China's Cultural Revolution, the parallels were clear.
"At least we know that Xu Yao and Lin Qi have read The Three-Body Problem thoroughly. Lose your humanity and you lose a lot; lose your animal nature and you lose everything," said one comment on China's Weibo.
Lin and Xu were reportedly on good terms at the start: Lin had appointed Xu to spearhead a subsidiary called The Three Body Universe a year after he joined Yoozoo as the company's chief risk officer in 2017.
The subsidiary was in charge of securing intellectual property rights for the film adaptations, and the two had worked closely together in brokering the deal to adapt the novel into a Netflix original series.
But they fell out when Lin - who founded Yoozoo in 2009 - decided to put other executives in charge of business operations, local reports said. Xu, authorities allege, began to plot.
Some reports said he set up a company in Japan to acquire the lethal substances and even tested them on animals. Xu then disguised the substances as probiotic pills and gave them to Lin.
Lin checked himself into the hospital when he felt unwell after taking the pills, and was initially in stable condition. But his condition took a dramatic turn - he died 10 days later, on Christmas Day 2020, at the age of 39. At the time, he was believed to have had a net worth of around 6.8bn yuan (£745m; $941m), according to the Hurun China Rich List
Four other people fell sick from drinking poisoned beverages in the Yoozoo office but survived, the court heard.
Following his death, Yoozoo issued a statement on its official Weibo microblog which read: "Goodbye youth... We will be together, continue to be kind, continue to believe in goodness, and continue the fight against all that is bad."
His death shocked China's gaming and technology sectors and sparked widespread speculation, but it took years for the full details to emerge - despite Xu being detained within days.
The Three-Body Problem is the first book in a trilogy called Remembrance of Earth's Past, by Chinese author Liu Cixin. The novel has been translated into close to 30 languages since it was published in Chinese.
