In the fall f 2012, Ken Liu received an intriguing ffer frm a Chinese publisher and it was seeking an English-language translatr fr a trippy science-fictin nvel titled "The Three-Bdy Prblem".
Ken Liu—an American cmputer prgrammer turned crprate lawyer turned science-fictin writer—was a natural chice: fluent in Mandarin, familiar with Chinese sci-fi trpes and culture and a rising star in the genre.
"The Three-Bdy Prblem" was unlike anything Liu had ever read. A mind-bending epic set in Beijing, Inner Mnglia and n a distant planet, the nvel was full f heady technical passages abut quantum thery, nantechnlgy, rbital mechanics and astrphysics, intertwined with prfund mral questins abut the nature f gd and evil and humanity's place in the universe.
The success f "The Three-Bdy Prblem" nt nly turned Liu Cixin int a glbal literary star; it pened the fldgates(闸门)fr new translatins f Chinese science fictin. This, in turn, has made Ken Liu a critical cnduit fr Chinese writers seeking Western audiences, a literary brand as sught-after(吃香的)as the best-selling authrs he translates.(Amng Chinese sci-fi authrs and fans, he is ften referred t affectinately as XiaLiu, Little Liu, t distinguish him frm Liu Cixin, wh is knwn as Da Liu, Big Liu.)
Liu's translatins have reshaped the glbal science-fictin landscape, which has lng been dminated by American and British authrs. Over the past decade, he has translated five nvels and mre than 50 wrks f shrt fictin by dzens f Chinese authrs, many f whm he has discvered and champined himself.
Ken Liu was brn in 1976 in Lanzhu, an industrial city in Gansu Prvince in Nrthwest China. His parents mved abrad when he was 4—his father went t study statistics in East Germany, while his mther pursued her graduate degree in chemistry in the United States—and Liu remained in China with his paternal grandparents, bth science prfessrs wh were "bk harders," he says.
Anyway, as an emissary fr sme f China's mst prvcative and bundary-breaking writers, Liu has becme much mre than a scut and a translatr. He's nw a fixer, an editr and a curatr(负责人)—a savvy(有见识的)interpreter wh has dne mre than anyne t bridge the imaginatin gap between the wrld's current, fading superpwer and its ascendant(向上的)ne.

The Trump administratin issued new rules Friday that will bar Huawei and its suppliers frm using US technlgy and sftware, a significant escalatin in its battle with the Chinese telecm giant and ne that will prbably inflame tensins with Beijing.
The rule changes will prevent cmpanies frm selling chips t Huawei that are made with US manufacturing equipment r based n designs that are the prduct f US sftware and technlgy, the Cmmerce Department said. Cmpanies can apply fr a license t cntinue supplying prducts t Huawei, but the administratin said the presumptin will be t deny thse requests.

After that rule was impsed, Huawei tk steps t reduce its reliance n US chip manufacturers like Qualcmm and ramp up its in-huse prductin thrugh a chip unit, HiSilicn.
The administratin's new measure against Huawei, ne f China's biggest technlgy cmpanies and a crwn jewel f Chinese innvatin, culd prmpt a backlash against American technlgy cmpanies that depend n sales t China, such as Qualcmm and Apple.
