    Intelligent robots are an important theme in Chinese science fiction movies,encompassing a wealth of imagination. The related narratives display a diverse understanding of the interrelationships among machines, technology,and culture. Within these narratives,robots are often imbued with distinct species-like attributes,assuming diverse roles within human society. Intelligent robot narratives unveil cultural diversity across time dimensions,reflecting the evolving human attitudes towards technology. Furthermore,they delve into the convergence and clash of distinct regional cultures,revealing the vastness and complexity of culture in the spatial dimension. A multidimensional examination of these narratives,including their utilization of local cultural resources,can contribute to the creation of science fiction works that embody a more profound Chinese character.

    Imagined as intelligent beings with emotions,intellect, and even consciousness,robots have become an integral narrative element in the ideological practice of Chinese online science fiction. Chinese cyber science fiction has crafted five distinct robot archetypes and,through exceptional discursive practices,presented the multifaceted possibilities of robot narratives. These narratives serve to construct complex and nuanced human-machine relationships,encompassing emotional,moral,and ethical dimensions. The robot narratives in online science fiction novels highlight the artistic imagination and ethical construction of Chinese online writers in response to the scientific and technological changes of contemporary society. They also reveal the ethical dilemmas and poetic reflections that arise as human civilization confronts the development of robot technology and the evolving dynamics of human-machine interactions. As such,exploring and analyzing the ethical mechanisms and social impact of robot narratives in network science fiction novels holds significant theoretical value for the development and transformation of science fiction literature.

    In the era of rapid development of artificial intelligence and robotics,exploring intimate relationships between humans and robots is not only within the realm of technical research but also involves social and cultural reflections. The 1907 novel The Machine Wife,released by the New World Fiction Publishing Company,explores the complexity of human-robot emotional connections. The intimate human-machine relationship depicted in the work differs from the paradigm of human-machine love under the“Pygmalion complex”. Furthermore,the process of this intimate human-machine relationship can be analyzed as humans making“emotional investments”in robots that act as“mirrors”,obtaining responses through the reflection of the robot’s image,and ultimately achieving mutual love through“emotional transference”.

    In the animated series Bonnie Bears,19 robots are integrated into the main plots as a cultural phenomenon,creating works that differ from other mainstream domestic robot animations through a daily and secular perspective. The series mainly features two categories of robots:“narrative device”robots and“autonomous character”robots. From the perspective of robot humanities,this paper summarizes and analyzes the two categories of robot story creation in the Bonnie Bears animation series over the past 13 years and their characteristics. Based on the idea of“robot localization”in the series,it explores the possibility of constructing Chinese robot culture and provides cases for further analysis of the creation and research of“Chinese-style robots”.

    The“Science Classics Series”constructs a series of knowledge frameworks centered on the“textual knowledge”of the original works. From the outside inwards,these frameworks consist of:“background knowledge”,“related knowledge”,and“subtextual knowledge”. The public should begin with the outermost framework and gradually progress inwards, ultimately reaching the“textual knowledge”framework. Through this step-by-step reading process,the public can not only avoid the initial difficulties associated with directly reading the original text,but also gain the necessary knowledge foundation for a deeper understanding of the original text,thereby paving the way for the popularization of science classics.

    In the context of high-quality development, science writing in the new era faces multiple challenges from macro,meso and micro perspectives. Since the 1950s,relevant policies and studies at home and abroad have shown that cooperation is an important way to promote scientific researchers to carry out high-quality science writing. Combined with cases such as China’s Road to Science and Technology:Water Conservancy Volume:Water for Livelihood and China’s 4th National Climate Change Report:Public Edition,the paper explores and summarizes the“three-plus-three”cooperation mode of science writing. This model can effectively drive researchers who have a strong desire to popularize science,but relatively short of time and ability,and help expand the team of science writing and promote the prosperity of science writing.

    Literary children’s science fiction calls for works that are both literary and scientific. Zhang Zhilu,with his delicate emotions,intricate plots, and elements of science fiction,has promoted the development of literary children’s science fiction and brought many classic science fiction novels and films to young people. Since the 21st century,Ma Chuansi’s works have been constructed and developed along the path of literary children’s science fiction. Ma Chuanyi gallops through the real and imaginary worlds with poetic language,cares for the grand narratives of contemporary times from a delicate child’s perspective,deeply explores the philosophy in the current reality and science fiction world,and strives to create excellent children’s science fiction literature for children that is full of unique life experiences and emotional care. His works have played a bridging role in the division of the 21st century children’s science fiction category and the development of literary children’s science fiction.
