Chapter 525: "Ball Flash" Easter Egg
Chapter 525: "Ball Flash" Easter Egg
In the huge screening room, the big screen finally froze between the sea and the sky because Chen Ang disappeared.
The Chinese side, of course, wants to capture Dr. Chen. The Jiaolong special forces soldiers around him, as well as the aircraft carrier not far away and the fighter jets in the sky are not just for show.
However, since Chen Ang had such a big plan, he also took all aspects into consideration and made sufficient preparations.
So when being pointed at by the black muzzle of a gun, four dark shadows rushed out from the sea, each using their own abilities to intercept the bullets, and then took Chen Ang and escaped into the water in full view of everyone.
"No need to chase!"
Shi Qiang promptly stopped the Jiaolong Special Forces who were about to chase.
"If I'm not mistaken, those four should be the famous 'Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse' in the underground world.
Now it seems that our Dr. Chen is the famous 'Apocalypse' in the underground world. "
The big screen went out and became pitch black.
After a while, the end credits rolled one-third of the way, and the first end-credits Easter egg of "Ball Lightning" finally appeared.
It was a night, in a bright office, Ding Yi was sitting at the desk with a photo frame in his hand.
In the frame is a yellowed old photo showing a group of people standing in front of the gate of an old brick-concrete building.
Lin Yun was also in that group of people. She stood in the middle, still wearing her neat military uniform and with a bright smile on her face. She was still as beautiful as ever.
Next to her, on the left and right, are Ding Yi and Chen Ang. Obviously, this should be a group photo they took when they participated in "Morning Light" together more than ten years ago.
Lin Yun smiled at Ding Yi in the photo. From her clear eyes, Ding Yi could see many things that she didn't have when she was alive:
A happy sense of belonging, a tranquility from the depths of the soul, like a small lonely sail anchored in a distant and forgotten quiet harbor.
Ding Yi turned the photo frame over and through the transparent acrylic plate on the back, he could see that at the bottom of the yellowed photo there was a series of calculation formulas and a suggestion on how to stimulate "macro-fusion".
This text is quite new, forming a sharp contrast with the age of the photo. It seems that it was written not long ago.
Ding Yi stared at the calculation formula for a moment, then gently put the photo back into the drawer, turned and walked to the balcony, not wanting the audience in front of the big screen to see the tears in his eyes.
This easter egg is very short, but it fills in a hole in the previous movie, that is, why Ding Yi and his team's "macro-fusion" experiment was so smooth.
Combined with the previous plot, it is obvious that it should be the quantized Lin Yun who provided them with the necessary information about the experiment through supernatural events.
One Easter egg ends and the second one begins.
This time it was at the "Macro Particle" underground research institute located in the Gobi Desert in southwestern China. Ding Yi, wearing a white coat, was discussing something with another middle-aged researcher.
"Doctor, we have discovered a strange phenomenon during this period."
"What phenomenon?" Ding Yi asked as he looked through the data and information.
"That is, when there is no observer, the excited ball lightning will remain in a collapsed state rather than a quantum state."
Ding Yi seemed to disagree with this.
“We discovered this phenomenon more than a decade ago, when we tested the actual combat effect of the lightning ball machine gun. Without any observers, all ten ball lightnings hit the target accurately.
At first we thought we were negligent, that a camera was not turned off, or that a soldier secretly opened his eyes during the experiment and wanted to check on Macro Electronics.
As a result, the only two cameras were dismantled, all personnel on the shooting range were evacuated into the bunker, and the lightning ball machine gun that had already been aimed was changed to automatic firing, so that most of the ball lightning fired could still hit the target accurately.
This puzzled us, and it was not until Comrade Lin Yun got into trouble that we realized that the observer who caused the ball lightning to collapse should be the US reconnaissance satellite in space. "
The researchers couldn't help but explain:
“We have heard of this before, so this time we changed the way of testing and chose a place that can absolutely shield all observers, such as an abandoned deep mine.
We evacuated all the people and observation equipment in the mine in advance, and then let the ball lightning acceleration equipment run automatically in it, and judged whether the ball lightning was in a collapsed state during the test by observing the impact point of the target test. "
Ding Yi was now a little interested and asked curiously, "What are the test results?"
“We have conducted tests in 16 mines so far, and most of the results are normal.
However, in two tests, the ball lightning remained collapsed even when there were no observers on site.
Dr. Ding's expression finally became more serious. "So what do you think this result means?"
The researcher hesitated for a moment and said, "This shows that our theory of quantum mechanics still has many shortcomings or has not been studied clearly."
"Oh, no, no, no, quantum mechanics is correct."
There was a gleam of light in Ding Yi's eyes behind his glasses. He closed the file with a "snap", signaling the researcher to continue the experiment in this area without making any noise. Then he turned and went to Shi Qiang's office and handed him the document.
"What does this mean?" Shi Qiang, who didn't know much about quantum science, was confused.
"In the mine test, neither human observers nor observers formed by human-made observation equipment existed, but the ball lightning was still in a collapsed state. What does this mean?"
"Does this mean there is an observer we don't know about? Could it be a self-aware quantum entity like Chen Ang?"
Ding Yi shook his head.
"Impossible. Compared to them, I prefer to believe that there is an observer above human beings at the scene. This is the only reasonable explanation."
"what?"
Ding Yi reminded: "Have you forgotten the prehistoric and alien civilization relics in our base?"
"Are you talking about aliens?" Shi Qiang frowned.
"This should be a powerful observer. At the very least, its observations can penetrate the strata, or even be everywhere."
"You know everything!" Shi Qiang seemed to have thought of something at this time, and his face became much uglier.
"The important members of the ETO organization we captured talked about the great 'Lord' the most. Now we finally have some clues.
Can this experiment be repeated?"
"According to the researchers, it is not possible. After the initial experiments all produced collapse results, this experiment returned to the normal quantum state results."
"So: the super-observer is aware of our awareness of it?"
"That may be the case, so we will conduct large-scale experiments next to see if we can find more such phenomena for study."
"Dr. Ding Yi, your research is indeed of great significance. The next work in the base will be handed over to you. I have to go to Beijing as soon as possible."
"So urgent?"
"If your guess is true, then humanity may be facing the greatest crisis in history." "Perhaps the super observer is a good person."
As soon as Ding Yi said this, he knew there was a problem.
Sure enough, Shi Qiang, who was planning to set off quickly, stopped, turned around and looked at him and said solemnly:
“Doctor, peace comes from the barrel of a gun.
Comrade Lin Yun has already told us that we may not be the first to use force, but we must be prepared to fight at all times! "
The screen goes black and then lights up again. The third easter egg, which is also the final post-credits easter egg, shows that the protagonist has changed to Dr. Chen.
It is also a study room, with the same warm lighting and a large wooden desk.
Dr. Chen Ang, who had escaped but was wanted worldwide, seemed to be writing at his desk. Q, who had the same face as Lin Yun, walked behind him and waited for him to stop working before respectfully reporting:
"Doctor, the rebellion at the Antarctic base has been suppressed...
All the shares of Brilliant Group have been sold on the black market...
There is also news from Evans. Do we need to cooperate with his actions next...
PhD?"
Q looked at the doctor's back who hadn't responded for a long time and couldn't help but call out softly.
"Oh... do you smell it?"
Chen Ang didn't turn his head, but just looked ahead, and suddenly asked a question without any context.
"What do you smell?"
Q twitched his beautiful nose and looked around in confusion, but didn't find anything strange.
Except for the amethyst vase on the desk in front of Chen Ang, the vase was beautiful, but there was only water in the vase, no flowers.
"A kind of fragrance," Chen Ang described it at this time, "a fragrance without all the sweetness, a pleasant bitterness, like a vegetable field in the sunshine after a rainstorm, like the last light cloud in the clear sky, like the fleeting ringing of a bell in a deep valley..."
Dr. Chen's voice is so magnetic that just a few words of description can make people imagine a lot, as if they really saw the scenes he described.
what!
At this moment, several audience members sitting in the front row suddenly rubbed their eyes in confusion, because they seemed to see something flashing on the big screen.
However, when I asked my friends nearby, they didn't see anything.
But soon, more viewers in different seats in the theater began to stir, because they had just noticed a fleeting strange phenomenon on the big screen.
The vision lasted for an extremely short time, so short that they almost thought they were seeing things.
And this commotion also spread to other viewers, because these viewers did not find anything wrong while watching the movie.
Q in the movie had the same reaction as these audiences, which made her very embarrassed. She didn't know whether to agree with Dr. Chen or tell the truth.
Fortunately, Dr. Chen didn't pay any attention to her. He got up and left the room. Q breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed him.
After the two left, the heavy wooden door closed and there was no sound in the room, everything was quiet.
The audience thought that this was the last Easter egg, but the next second, their eyes suddenly widened.
Because in the amethyst vase on the desk, a blue rose appeared.
This rose appears and disappears. It is so pretty and beautiful. In addition to its highly saturated bright colors, it also has a hazy glow, full of vitality, and exudes an icy aura from the inside out.
Quantum Rose!
Anyone who has read the original novel "Ball Lightning" will have this thought in mind at this moment.
Many science fiction fans have fantasized about this scene, and now Wang Hao has presented this unique beauty and romance of physics to the public through movies.
But in the blink of an eye, the blue rose disappeared in an instant, leaving only the empty vase standing there quietly.
But every detail of that quantum rose is imprinted in everyone's mind and cannot be erased for a long time.
The audience closed their eyes and opened them again, and the quantum rose did not appear again, but they all knew that the flower was there, in the amethyst vase.
It just requires the audience to use the eyes of their hearts to see its every detail, to touch each of its petals with their hearts, to watch it swaying slightly in the night breeze from the window... This is a flower that can only be viewed with the heart.
By the way, they can also smell the cool floral fragrance that is unique to quantum roses. The fragrance is very light and extremely ethereal, but it lingers at the tip of the nose for a long time.
So even after the movie's post-credits scene ended and the overhead lights came on, the audience kept their eyes closed and were reluctant to get up for a long time, immersed in looking at the quantum rose, until the film's main creators came on stage and the host spoke, waking them up.
Then they were greeted with continuous and warm applause.
In the VIP viewing box high up, the big leader had already left, but before leaving, he looked at Jing Tian and nodded in appreciation. At the same time, in front of the lower-level officials present, he gave a very high evaluation of the movie "Ball Lightning".
"The movie is great, Wang Hao is a good director, and one of the most outstanding film talents in our country!"
The leader's words were brief, but for the government employees on the scene, every word was enough for them to ponder for a long time.
With this statement from the top leader, at least on the official side, the film "Ball Lightning" has been completely unimpeded.
The reasons that were previously blocked during the review, such as the bad guy escaping and the bad impact of describing the war between two countries on diplomacy, are no longer a problem.
As for the departure of the big boss, Wang Hao, who was standing on the stage at this time, naturally knew nothing about it.
As the director of the movie "Ball Lightning", he is now facing a bombardment from a large number of audiences.
Because this movie is so "special".
Yes, perhaps "Ball Lightning" is not the best work in director Wang Hao's career.
It doesn't have the plot as exciting as "Inception", but the multi-layered dreams are so brain-burning.
There is also no groundbreaking special effects like "Gravity", which achieved a domestic breakthrough in the field of technology.
There is not even the exhilarating battle excitement of "Wolf Warrior 1, 2" and "Taken".
But it is definitely the most controversial one among Wang Hao's works.
Not to mention the extremely clear close-up shots, the "Morning Light" aircraft carrier was modeled after the Liaoning, fully displaying its internal structure. This is the first time that such confidential images have appeared in a movie in China.
Take the military conflict in this movie for example. It is absolutely unique in the country and extremely bold.
So much so that, driven by a certain strong emotion in watching the movie, the audience had too many questions and wanted to get an answer from Wang Hao.
