Chapter 220 Ancient Creation 1 Easter Egg
Chapter 220: An Easter Egg of Ancient Creation
In front of the life support cabin, Shi Qiang, who was raising his hand to salute Captain Zhang Ying, looked at Dr. Ma Zhao's actions and listened to his explanation, and frowned almost subconsciously.
"This is the brain wave of Doctor Jiang Muyun. I'm afraid there is something wrong with this..."
"Nothing wrong."
Dr. Ma waved his hand.
"Dr. Jiang Muyun was seriously injured after the explosion. We had no choice but to upload her consciousness. This can be regarded as extending her life in disguise, allowing her to reunite with Captain Zhang Ying."
"But is this still Doctor Jiang Muyun?"
Shi Qiang asked suspiciously, "Without a physical body, this can only be regarded as a bunch of data."
"Why doesn't it count?"
Dr. Ma Zhao reached out and touched the data bar. In the camera, with his back to Shi Qiang, his eyes revealed a hint of extremely obscure fanaticism.
“Our human consciousness, after all, is nothing more than an aggregation of memories.
What is memory? It is data and information, but the human brain can store more massive amounts of data.
In the past, due to hardware limitations, we were unable to fully transcribe a person’s memory data, and it was difficult to preserve this memory data for a long time.
But this ancient creation that the country has brought out for the "Source Code" project is enough to meet this condition."
As Dr. Ma Zhao spoke excitedly, the camera began to gradually pull away.
Soon, in addition to Captain Zhang Ying’s life-support capsule, more similar life-support capsules appeared in the audience’s sight.
Dozens or even hundreds of sci-fi life-support capsules formed a large circle on a metal platform covered with pipes. In the center of the circle, a 9-meter-tall, turquoise-green tree with a simple and elegant shape stretched out its branches, which was particularly eye-catching.
But when everyone looked closely, they found that it was not a tree at all, but a huge bronze object that was cast in the shape of a tree.
The tree is divided into three layers, and each layer has three branches. Each branch is covered with dense bronze leaves, and there is a golden fruit between the leaves. There seems to be a three-legged flying bird faintly in the fruit, which is emitting a hazy golden light mist, covering most of the life-support cabins on the site.
Its shape and style are surprisingly similar to the sacred tree "Fusang" in ancient Chinese mythology and legends, except that it is smaller in size and is far from being able to cover the sky and block out the sun, enough for the three-legged golden crow to land on.
“If it weren’t for this ancient artifact that was dug out from the ruins of Shu, which allows people to sleep peacefully at the same time and can store a large amount of data information, we would not be able to construct a huge dream that includes hundreds of people.
After all, human life has its limits, and the human body is ultimately fragile.
Consciousness uploading and digital life are definitely the ultimate form of human evolution.
With it, digital life that lives entirely in the virtual world will surely become a reality!"
As Dr. Ma Zhao spoke, the camera finally stopped on this miraculous creation left over from an ancient civilization and gradually fell into darkness.
It wasn't until the credits began to roll that the audience seemed to finally come to their senses.
On the one hand, they are still moved by Captain Zhang Ying's experience and his love with Jiang Muyun.
On the other hand, at the end of the movie, the bronze sacred tree and Dr. Ma Zhao's few words vaguely revealed a more magnificent story for them.
It’s a pity that this story only shows the tip of the iceberg, which makes people feel a little disappointed.
With the experience of watching Wang Hao's previous movies as a foundation, coupled with the "Galaxy Cinematic Universe" plan announced by the other party at the Shanghai International Film Festival not long ago.
Most of the movie fans and audience present had actually already guessed that this last part of the plot must involve another new movie.
However, it is like reading a wonderful novel, turning to the last page, and then hearing "What will happen next? Wait for the next chapter!"
This makes people want to grab the author by the collar, shake him and shout: "Update quickly!"
It’s a pity that movies are not novels, so if the audience wants to satisfy their curiosity, they will have to wait for a while.
Of course, it was precisely because of this curiosity that the audience had no intention of moving their butts from their seats.
Even though the end credits of this movie are long and boring, they are still waiting patiently, waiting for the end credits Easter egg that can help them relieve their inner restlessness a little.
Perhaps this is a strange scene that only appears in Wang Hao's movies.
Their wait was certainly not in vain, as the subtitles of the first half ended and the screen lit up again.
This time, what appeared was no longer the cold white interior space of the headquarters, but the sunny outdoors.
Look at the lush environment at the scene, the rows of black stone tablets, the white chrysanthemums placed in front of the tablets, and the figures dressed in black with solemn faces.
Obviously, this should be in a public cemetery.
In the camera, a middle-aged man, also dressed in black, with a white chrysanthemum on his chest and a pair of black-framed glasses, with a haggard face but a strong bookish air, is striding towards the cemetery.
If there are any audience members who have watched this year's historical drama "The Ming Dynasty 1566", they will naturally find that the middle-aged man walking over is the actor named Wang Jinsong who played the eunuch Yang Jinshui in the TV series.
When Wang Jinsong came closer, he shouted at the thin old woman with gray hair and glasses who was standing at the front of the group.
"Mom, I'm late."
There was a hint of sob and sadness in this cry. Just listening to the lines was enough to make people feel sad and unable to help but shed tears.
However, the old lady played by Chen Jin was not moved at all even after hearing this heartfelt cry. Her face was still stern, and it was obvious that she was not easy to get along with.
She didn't even frown, she just raised her eyes slightly to glance at Wang Jinsong in front of her, then nodded.
"Well, it's good to be back."
Wang Jinsong was accustomed to the old woman's reaction and did not care. He turned around and placed the bouquet of chrysanthemums in front of the tombstone. At the same time, two lines of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
On the tombstone, the words "Tomb of my beloved wife Yang Dong" are very conspicuous.
This situation, coupled with what Shi Qiang had previously explained in "Source Code", caused many viewers to react quickly.
The character played by Wang Jinsong should be the real target of the train bombing, Professor Ding Yi, a famous Chinese meteorologist and physicist.
At this time, after Shi Qiang and others resolved the explosion crisis, he was finally escorted back home by the authorities and caught up with his wife's funeral.
The funeral was also very simple. After Ding Yi took the lead in paying homage, a group of relatives and friends began to come forward and pay their respects to the tombstone one by one.
After all these procedures were completed and the crowd dispersed, Ding Yi was greeting his mother-in-law Ye Wenjie, played by Chen Jin. At this time, a young man with a handsome face, medium-long curly hair, a feminine temperament and a free and easy air came forward.
"teacher!"
The man greeted Ye Wenjie. After seeing this man, Ye Wenjie, who had always had a serious face, relaxed a little, and her eyes and brows softened a lot. She nodded at him.
At this time, Ding Yi was also looking at this young man who could attract the attention of his mother-in-law with curiosity, and the man turned around, smiled and stretched out his right hand to him.
"Brother Ding, hello, my name is Luo Ji. I studied astronomy with Teacher Ye for a period of time before, and now I teach philosophy at the university.
Of course, according to the teacher, she seemed to suggest that I study cosmic sociology."
