Abstract

"The Wandering Earth" series of movies, as a classic in Chinese science fiction films, not only contains literary fantasies but also embodies many elements of technology policy. This paper analyzes the elements of technology policy reflected in the plot of the "The Wandering Earth" series, based on the analysis framework of "subject+instrument+ethics." It compares these elements with real-life examples, conducts specific analysis of different elements, depicts the ways in which different policy elements function, and provides three feasible recommendations for the optimization of technology policy in reality: flexible restructuring of the subject, ethical considerations, and appropriate instrument selection.
