Abstract
On August 21st , 2016, the authoress Hao Jingfang won the Novellas Award of the 74th Hugo Award by Beijing Zhedie. It was the second time for a Chinese work to win the Hugo Award after Santi and it marked the maturity of Chinese science fiction. However, there are not many people in the Chinese academia studying the Chinese-to-English translation of science fiction. And among the very few systematic studies, Professor Guo Jianzhong’s work is the most recognized one. He summarized three guiding principles for English-to-Chinese science fiction translation: it should retain the work’s literary value, the plain language and the science factor, and put forward several translations techniques. This thesis takes Beijing Zhedie as a case to analyze in detail about how to translate Chinese works into English according to those three principles.
