Utopia is an ideal country longed for by human beings. Because she has never appeared in this world, it has become one of the dreams pursued. China began with Confucius, and put Utopia back to the era of Yao, Shun and Yu, thinking about the past. Lao Tzu’s small country and few people, old and dead, do not communicate with each other. They also pursue a primitive society in reverse and express their dissatisfaction with the status quo. Western culture is aggressive, and everything looks forward, so in the Soviet writer Yefiremov's "Andromeda Nebula", the Utopia described takes place in the distant future, when the earth has been completely transformed, and the two poles The severe cold and hot deserts have become a relic of history.Human beings use a common language, and everyone becomes brothers like friends, and the content of life is sports, art and scientific research.The problems of basic necessities of life do not exist in human consciousness at all.There is no more state authority, no manual labor, children are raised by society, and people are free to throw themselves into the embrace of nature and engage in ancient agriculture, fishery and animal husbandry, as long as he wants.

The irony is that all works that focus on utopia are inevitably boring, because without disasters and crises, they lack attractive impact. In this age of excitement, utopia is just a blockbuster poison, so the problem is not Utopia is ours. The Greek word for Utopia means a place where there is nowhere.
