Why does "The Wandering Earth" take the earth with it?

This is because walking with the earth is more in line with Chinese traditional culture. Among all the feelings of the Chinese people, the feelings of family and country are the most important and the most deeply rooted.

"The Wandering Earth" is a film about the situation when the sun is aging rapidly and the earth may be swallowed up. Human beings start the "Wandering Earth" action and escape from the solar system with their home on earth. If this same theme were staged in other countries, they would definitely abandon the earth and find a new home without hesitation. However, this is a science fiction film native to China, which is well integrated into the traditional Chinese family culture. I remember that in the end, when all countries faced the destruction of the earth, they followed the advice of the coalition government: rush home. Injecting soul into this movie? Feelings of family and country.

Why do humans take the earth with them when they flee? Quoting from the book: There are no planets in Centauri. The nearest star with planets is 850 light-years away. The fastest spacecraft that humans can currently build can only reach 0.5% of the speed of light. This means It would take 170,000 years to get there, and an ecosystem the size of a spaceship wouldn't be able to sustain even one-tenth of that time. Children, only an ecosystem on the scale of the earth and such a majestic ecological cycle can keep life going for generations! Human beings have left the earth in the universe, just like a baby leaving its mother in the desert! ? In China, there are many sentences about the feelings of home and country, such as: young children leave home and old people return, fallen leaves return to their roots, etc. These things are deeply ingrained in Chinese people's thinking.

The attachment to the hometown and the reluctance to leave home are vividly expressed in this drama. "The Wandering Earth" tells people: History is never about individual struggle, but about the joint efforts of a group of people, plus a little luck. This is the value of our Chinese people, which is intentionally de-heroic. It is a real leap, because it seems to have found a Chinese emotional core? The deepest thing of the Chinese people.
