During the delicately orchestrated gala, full of sci-fi-esque lighting effects and dreamy performances, the awards were handed out one by one. The biggest awards were for the achievement section, where "The Three-Body Problem" writer Liu Cixin won the sci-fi master achievement award. "As a science fiction fan and author in China, I consider myself fortunate to express myself through my works and introduce Chinese science fiction to the world," Liu stated in his acceptance speech via video link. "Science fiction is an enthralling genre that showcases human imagination and creativity. It provokes emotions and strikes a chord with humanity's collective vision for the future, the world, and the universe. Through science fiction, we come together as one and contemplate our existence while finding the courage to confront the future."
