Science fiction has made great development in China since it was imprted. From now on,a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend appeared in the circle of SF inditing.The ‘Four Kings' including Liu Cixin,He Xi,Han Song and Wang Jinkang are a matter of great concern,for they are ambitious and educated.Now,it is a situation of quadruple confrontation.However, He Xi create a separate school in science fiction,for its romance and Dong Renwei who is the famous SF writer also think He Xi is The First Man of Romance Science Fiction in China.His science ficition includes the problem about human nature,moral principles,ethics behind the science context,and talk their nexus.Meanwhile it has its unique perspective and depth on the subjects that science and technology has developed to its reverse side,in addition,the dominate of technology has gone to extremely with its distinctive romance amd science.The thesis including five chapters was seprated from three dimensions including the stylistic features,the content and the value to discuss the romance science fiction of He Xi.The thesis included five chapters besides exordium and conclusion.The first part will define the Romance Science Fiction,‘SF' is also called ‘science fiction' which can be divided into soft science fiction and hard science fiction from creative methods.The outstanding characteristics of Soft SF is based on humanities and social science such as sociology, history, philosophy, psychology besides scientificalness, the romance science fiction belongs to soft science fiction for its particularly romance and sociality. So it will have the narration advantage from soft science fiction,this type of sicienc was polished up romantic plots.What's more the science-fiction tales was interwoven with romantic plots even it ran through the whole science story.So the romantic plots are indispensable to Romace Science Fiction.Briefly speaking Romace Science Fiction is a kind of science fiction that contains love and romantic plots.The second section analyzes the Stylistic Features of He Xi romance science fiction from the formal level and pointed out that his novel truly achieve the combination of technical beauty and artistic beauty perfectly;There is no doubt that it faces the future to narrate. Substantially it narrate the ‘Past of Future' standing on a point in the future from the aspect of narrative voice.Such fiction uses rich humanistic terms construct the framework and express the fictionists' anxiety about modern society in seemingly absurd narration from the angle of narrative language.Not only the generality but also it has its own personality, the romance that love elements and plot integrated into the grand science fantasy story makes it more profound in talking humanity, ethics, morality, etc. As is known to all,love usually containing the deepest instinct factors is different from the kinship and friendship.It can reflect the theme of science and technology to human nature,deeply. Meanwhile the unique narrative mode and the future perspective can make us rethink current situation on science and technology profoundly through future story.In fact it focuses on the matter that bottom line ethics, moral etc. are assaulted by today's highly developed science and technology.The most important is that it rethink the theme that development of science and technology has gone against the rule even to extremely.The third chapter focuses on the characters in his fiction following the previous research ideas whose name is ‘from the text to the culture'.He Xi cogitates the subject concerning human nature especially on variant human nature under the highly developed science and technology background via creating multiple characters.It is worthwhile to note that ‘He Xi' whose name is also his pen name appeared in almost every fictions written by him.Actually, same ‘He Xi' is variant of idea which reflect the different concept of human nature from HeXi. Furthermore there are many other characters containing abundant humanity meanings in his novels such as Simeon D.,Chu Qin,Xiao Yu and so on.The fourth part mainly discuss the topics of romance science fiction written by HeXi also talk about his profound consideration and introspection about science and technology,human nature,ethics,and their relationship in his text.His fictions show his own standpoints anenst technical rationality by means of the narration interweaving romance and science.He describes the fact that highly developed technology make nothing is impossible in his romance science fiction for instance Xiao Yu,Who Am I,After One Billion Years Visitor.But these ‘possibilities' that was built in the text go against morality.Therefore this kind of alleged ‘possibilities' is satisfied with the id that is the deep human nature, which go against the ethical ego. Now, the development of science technology is breaking the human moral bottom line, step by step.To endlessly develop or to return to nature that is a question worth to be criticized and thought deeply.The fifith chapter discuss the meaning of his romance science fiction.On the one hand, He Xi's romance science fiction has considerable theoretical value, its unique romance narrative break the traditional narrative modes of science fiction and achieved innovation,at the same time its romance nature and love elements make his fiction discuss the topic namely reflection of technique on the human nature with love story,as we all konwn love itself mixed with a lot of instinct, desire, etc,which make the subject more incisive.On the other hand, his romance science fiction is fresh for a majority of science fiction recipients readers,for its impenetrating interweaving and adorning romance elements.Actually,if make the films of romance science fiction will lay the substantial foundation of Chinese characteristics romance Sci-Fi movie and inject the fresh blood to career of science fiction film in China.All in all,Science fiction is a new text. All along many science fiction writer pay close attention to.A majority of science fiction writers discuss the theme through the aspect of science or under the highly developed technology context. Nevertheless the romance science fiction of HeXi is more pertinency in reflecting the issue that the development of technology goes towards the reverse side for its unique romance nature which can lead the reader's thinking well.At the same time HeXi use his unique narrative style that combine the romance with science to update, upgrade and improve the eternally immutable and new topics. Generally speaking HeXi has his human feelings as a unique science fiction novelist.
