Chapter 342 The Truth and Easter Eggs

High in the sky, a large plane was falling rapidly with thick smoke coming out of its wings.

In the cockpit at the front of the plane, the captain and co-pilot were already pale and had completely stopped breathing.

In the first class cabin, Cobb and others were squeezed on the back wall because of the acceleration.

At this point, the plane's problems had become extremely serious. The flames from both engines were getting bigger and bigger, and screams of terror were heard from the business class and economy class below.

In addition, the urgent background music also sounded at the right time, which made the atmosphere even more urgent.

Finally, with a loud bang, the entire plane began to collapse.

The audience didn't expect that they would be able to enjoy a special effects show at the end of the movie.

The entire plane disintegrated in the air, with the wings on both sides breaking off and flying backwards.

Because it was a 3D movie, the audience could even see the broken wing crashing towards them.

Then there were various pieces of aircraft debris and burning flames, and finally the main body of the plane rolled in the air and broke into two. Cobb and others in the first class cabin were sucked out of the plane because of the negative pressure.

The group of people began to descend rapidly in the air. They kept in mind the skydiving tips Cobb had given them in advance, which were not to open the parachute too early. They looked at the white clouds below nervously and screamed in fear.

And then, they just fell, fell...

"Ah!"

Cobb opened his eyes again and looked around. It was still the first-class cabin of the plane.

"Would you like a hot towel?"

The familiar voice came from behind him again, and the camera turned to the stewardess, who was Qin Yanni.

Cobb nodded at her, took the towel and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The camera turned to the seat in front of him, but there was no little Fisher, only Shi Qiang wearing an eye mask, who seemed to be sleeping soundly.

As for Arthur, he sat in the seat opposite Cobb, and in front of him was none other than the client, the "tycoon" Saito.

But at this moment he seemed to have just woken up from his sleep, his consciousness was still a little fuzzy, and he also failed to recognize Cobb sitting opposite him.

At this time, Yin Xiu's voice was heard from the aircraft audio system A. He was sitting in the cockpit at the front of the plane, reporting as the co-pilot.

"Dear ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon. The plane will arrive at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport in 20 minutes. Please continue to fasten your seat belts and do not move around..."

Following this sound, Cobb turned his head and looked down through the window next to him.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, there are rows of high-rise buildings, wide highways, clear rivers, and green parks...

In the distance, there are the skyscrapers of the Magic City that reach into the clouds, reflecting the dazzling light and shining brightly under the bright sunshine.

Everything is so beautiful, and everything is so real.

Cobb looked at the vivid scene in front of him, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up slightly, revealing a happy smile.

This is also the first time he shows a genuine smile in the entire movie.

As the sunlight flickered outside the plane window, scenes began to flash back and the truth was finally revealed.

Still in the old factory where the Dream Stealing team gathered, advertisements were playing on the display screen.

“Brilliant technology creates brilliance.

Under the leadership of Dr. Chen Ang, a famous biologist and pharmacist, Brilliant Technology's biopharmaceutical company will focus on the forefront of the medical field to protect your life safety..."

"This is Brilliant Group, a large multinational biopharmaceutical company."

Shi Qiang stood in front of the whiteboard and pointed at the photo of Saito pasted on it.

"This is the target of our operation - Saito, the chairman of Brilliant Group."

"According to the intelligence we obtained from Operation Wolf Warrior, the Brilliant Group has been providing financial and technical support to the Wild Dog Team in northern Myanmar. At the same time, the company is also secretly conducting inhumane human biological experiments.

And behind them, there is another larger, mysterious and dangerous organization called 'ETO'. In the past year, many well-known scholars and experts have been killed in many places around the world, and it is very likely that they are related to it. "

"We will officially invite him to China to participate in industry forums and establish business partnerships, thereby creating opportunities for your actions."

"The primary goal of this mission is to obtain specific information about the organization called 'ETO' from the other party's mind. The more detailed the better."

“The secondary goal is to implant ideas in the other party so that they will reject the organization and voluntarily cooperate with us.

After all, the Brilliant Group is a giant multinational pharmaceutical company with inextricable connections with all parties. It would be best if we could complete the task without hurting Saito."

"It's impossible to implant ideas!"

"No, it's possible, don't you think, Cobb!"

"Qin Feng, what suggestions do you have for implanting ideas?"

"We need more information about Saito, his past life experiences, and his personality and habits."

"Okay, that's roughly the plan, let's take action first."

"We have obtained intelligence about the ETO organization. Next, we can follow this line and try to implant ideas in Saito's mind based on the relevant information."

"If we want him to cooperate with us voluntarily, we need to make him feel disillusioned with the ETO organization!"

"It seems that the reason why Saito joined this organization is because they have a lot of powerful, advanced technologies. He hopes to use the power of this organization to extend his life."

"We need to make him understand that making peace with those extremists will not work!"

"The ETO organization seems to be preparing to implement a horrific plan through the Brilliant Group's pharmaceutical industry."

"Saito himself is not a completely evil person. At least he still has a sense of contract."

……

At this point in the movie, most of the audience have realized that the plots in the movie were actually just a show performed by Cobb and others for Saito.

From the very beginning, Saito had never escaped from the dream. Even when he woke up on the train, he was still in the dream.

As for Fisher Jr., in the flashback on the big screen, when he was communicating with Cobb in the hotel bathroom, the figure reflected in the mirror was Shi Qiang's face.

It turns out that what he said to Cobb, "We also have the best pretenders," was not just empty talk.

It turns out that our Captain Shi is also a highly skilled disguiser.

Many viewers even remembered the movie "The Call" they had watched before and linked it to this movie.

When all the flashbacks were over, Cobb, in a suit and tie, with a nervous look on his face, queued up at the immigration office of Hongqiao Airport and handed his passport and entry application form to the border inspection and customs officers.

The customs officer looked at the passport, compared it with the information in the computer, looked at Cobb again, and finally smiled and nodded and said:

"Welcome back to China, Mr. Cobb."

"Thank you!"

Then Cobb received the gift, nodded to Qin Yanni, Shi Qiang and others along the way, and finally walked to Dr. Ma Zhao who came to pick him up at the airport. "Welcome home!" Ma Zhao patted the shoulder of the foreign son-in-law.

At this moment, Cobb's face finally showed a relaxed expression.

The two returned to Dr. Ma Zhao's house together. After entering the door, Cobb started spinning the spinning top in his hand.

At this time, Ma Zhao shouted towards the grass outside the house.

"James, Philippa, look who's here!"

Upon hearing this, Cobb quickly took a few steps and nervously stretched his head to look.

On the sunny grass, the two children turned around when they heard the words. This was the first time that Cobb's children showed their faces in front of the camera.

"Hey, kids!"

"father!"

The scene of the reunion between the father and his children is always so touching. With the soothing music at the end, the camera gradually focused on the spinning top on the table.

It just keeps turning and swaying, but it doesn't fall down, giving people endless reverie.

The main feature of the movie officially ended at this point, but the audience sat in their seats, unwilling to get up for a long time.

But this time they are not just waiting for the Easter egg at the end of the movie. Most of them are still immersed in the dream world woven by the movie.

Those layers of dreams were like a huge, ingeniously designed and complex maze, which trapped their minds deeply and made it difficult to break free for a long time.

After breaking free, some people could not help but recall the content of the movie they had just watched in their minds again, savoring the wonderful plot and ingenuity in it.

So after the movie ended, the entire screening room was still silent and quiet.

Such a situation made the leaders sitting in the front row, who were experiencing the works of the "Galaxy Cinematic Universe" for the first time, a little confused.

They all thought the movie was excellent. Normally, according to the usual plot, the audience would stand up and applaud or cheer, but what happened today? Should they take the lead?
Fortunately, this moment of silence only lasted for about a cup of tea. Finally, as the first ending song ended, a new picture appeared on the big screen that was originally scrolling the list of names.

This is the "post-credits Easter egg method" pioneered by the Galaxy Cinematic Universe, which all movie universe series are eager to learn and use.

The picture shows an endless Gobi desert. In the center of the desert, China's aerospace center is very busy.

The tall, slender and modern rocket stands quietly on the launch pad, like a soldier ready to go, aiming at the distant starry sky above.

As the countdown of "three, two, one" continued, astronauts including Zhang Hanyu and Jing Tian, ​​who were wearing spacesuits and making nervous preparations in the rocket cabin, held their breath, and the last "ignition" finally sounded.

Flames spurted out from the tail end of the rocket, and the spreading air waves hit directly in front of all the spectators.

Although this part of the plot seems to have nothing to do with "Inception", being able to watch our own Chinese rocket launching into space on the big screen in 3D is ultimately enough to make people feel excited and overwhelmed.

Perhaps the middle-aged soldier who was also standing at the launch center had the same feelings as them.

The military commander, played by Lin Yongjian, looked at the rocket that had successfully taken off on the monitor and nodded with satisfaction, looking extremely happy.

Then the next second, an adjutant trotted over and handed him a cell phone.

"Sir, there's a call from the Special Affairs Department."

Lin Yongjian nodded, took the phone, and Shi Qiang's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Old leader..."

At this point, the screen goes black and the first post-credits scene ends.

After seeing this easter egg, the audience instantly understood that this should be Wang Hao's early warm-up for his next new movie.

As for whether this warm-up is effective, just look at how excited everyone is about the 3D rocket launch just now.

And when the rest of the end credits ended, the second Easter egg was released.

However, the protagonist of this easter egg is Qin Hao, who played the imposter Yin Xiu in the previous movie. Now he seems to have finished the "dream stealing operation". He is holding his luggage and daily necessities and food he just bought in the supermarket, using the key to open the door of the dormitory and walked in.

Then the scene changed, and a figure was seen sitting on Yin Xiu's bed with most of his body in shadow, which startled the audience.

Looking closely, the person sitting on the bed was actually Wan Qian!
Of course, at this time she can be Wu Xiuqing, Q, and also Dr. Ma Zhao’s student.

"Brother, how was this operation?"

Q sat on the bed, looked at Yin Xiu who pushed the door open, and asked with a smile.

Yin Xiu also put down what he was holding, closed the door, and then looked at Wan Qian.

"How did you come!"

As he spoke, he took a few steps forward and stared at her:
"I have done what you said. I implanted the officials' minds to make them focus on the Adventists. When will you fulfill your promise to me?"

Wan Qian smiled slightly when she heard that, she stood up and closed the distance between herself and Yin Xiu. The two of them were standing almost face to face, with their noses almost touching, and the hot air exhaled by each other could clearly hit their faces.

Yin Xiu had never encountered such a situation before, and he almost subconsciously took a few steps back, which made Q, played by Wan Qian, laugh triumphantly.

However, she decided to stop while she was ahead, took out a mobile phone and handed it to Yin Xiu.

"have a look."

The camera was turned to the mobile phone screen, and then the audience saw a man in a white coat in front of a culture tank in a slightly gloomy laboratory.

And in the jar, in the green nutrient solution, Li Binbin was floating quietly with his hands clasped in front of his chest, sleeping like a baby.

"Dr. Chen's biotechnology is the best in the world. Now your sister's body is ready. I remember that your teacher seems to have kept your sister's digital life card.

Now we just need to get that thing and complete the consciousness recording experiment, and what you expect will come true..."

Following Wan Qian's narration, the screen went black again, and the movie was finally over.

The audience was silent for only a moment. The next second, thunderous applause resounded through the sky and lasted for a long time, as if it was going to blow off the roof of the theater.

Amidst the warm applause and under the gaze of the entire audience, Wang Hao and a group of actors strode onto the stage to welcome their moment of glory.

Afterwards, the audience members who had just finished watching the movie and were still immersed in excitement stood up one by one and expressed their admiration and love for the director Wang Hao and the leading actor Leonardo.

At the same time, they also raised questions that had accumulated during the movie-watching process.

"I would like to ask Director Wang, does the spinning top at the end of the movie indicate that the protagonist is still in a dream?"

"Director Wang, I remember that you once filmed a movie about a vegetative person being cured by a subconscious therapy device. So can we guess that the male protagonist has actually become a vegetative person because of the dream stealing operation, and the movie we saw before was just a process of saving him?"

"Hello, Leo. I'm a fan of yours. I'd like to ask, during the filming of this movie, were you able to smoothly understand the level of the protagonist and distinguish whether this was a dream or reality?"

"Director Wang, I'm an old fan of the Galaxy Cinematic Universe and I have a question for you.

The concept of "totem" should have been mentioned in the Easter egg of "Fatal Call", so I am very curious, what exactly is Captain Shi's totem?"

"Shu Chang, I like you..."
