Chapter 580: "3 Bodies 1"
Chapter 580: The Three-Body Problem 1 (End)
"thump!"
Evans sat down on the ground in front of the yard, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Shi Qiang stood there with a half-smoked cigarette in his hand, looking down at him quietly.
Although the person is still the same person, his spirit is significantly different, as if Shi Qiang has completed a transformation from the inside out in an instant.
Whether it was the audience in front of the big screen or Qin Feng and others who were observing this scene remotely, they all felt that he was glowing.
"Captain Shi is really a good material for a political commissar." Ding Yi couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, Mr. Guo's grandson, who was not far away, shouted at them.
"Captain Shi, come and have a bowl of mutton soup."
Only then did Shi Qiang pull Evans up from the ground.
After drinking the mutton soup, the two said goodbye to Mr. Guo and drove away from the forest farm.
The aerial camera followed the jeep of the two people and gradually pulled up, taking in the lush and vibrant scenery on the land below. Together, they formed a beautiful "new" picture of northern Shaanxi.
At this point, the story of "The Three-Body Problem 1" has come to an end.
There is no final battle with a big boss, and aliens only exist in a virtual dream game.
However, the audience who saw this felt that everything they had just seen was more exciting and breathtaking than those cool battles of Hollywood superheroes and the earth-shaking cool scenes, making it difficult for people to calm down for a long time.
why?
Some invited film critics put a big “?” in their notebooks. Why did this movie make them feel so strange?
They just couldn't figure it out and felt that "The Three-Body Problem 1" was beyond their common sense.
Some people even feel a certain degree of physical and psychological discomfort, and are therefore restless and feel like a thorn in their back.
At the end of the film, Shi Qiang began his final interrogation of Evans.
Perhaps because of his experience in the Mu Us Desert, he was more cooperative than before.
"Evans, we are now starting the final investigation. I hope you can actively cooperate."
"You should all know everything I know about the Trisolaran civilization."
"What about the information sent by the Trisolarian civilization to Earth?
Did they teach you some technology that is beyond the current level of human technology?"
Evans shook his head.
"No, the Trisolaran civilization does not trust us, and they are also worried that those technologies may fall into your hands."
"What about those advanced biotechnologies?"
"Dr. Chen Ang, the ETO organization's biological genetic engineering technology mainly relies on him."
"Did you intercept part of the information about the Trisolaran civilization contacting the ETO organization? What exactly are the plans of those aliens?"
"No, all the information is stored in the computer database of the Judgment Day. They don't have a plan?"
"No plans?"
"Yes, perhaps for the Trisolaran civilization, with their technology, they can just come over and crush us.
And in fact, a year ago, there was no information coming from the direction of the Centaurus trio on any frequency band.
You have already guessed this, right? The Trisolaran world has indeed stopped contacting Earth, and the ETO organization has been abandoned by them."
"The last question is also the most important: So far, has the Trisolaran world only sent radio waves to Earth?"
“Almost.”
"almost?"
"Well, although the technology of the Trisolarian civilization can only increase the speed of a spacecraft to one-tenth the speed of light, that is only discussed within a limited range.
Outside this range, even humans with backward technology can already accelerate some material entities to a level close to the speed of light."
“When you say limited scope, do you mean macro scope?
Indeed, humans can already use high-energy accelerators to accelerate microscopic particles to a speed close to the speed of light. The material entities you are talking about are microscopic particles, right?"
“Yes, microscopic particles.
Six years ago, the Three-Body World accelerated two hydrogen nuclei to nearly the speed of light in the distant Centaurus galaxy and launched them towards the solar system.
These two hydrogen nuclei, or protons, arrived in the solar system and then on Earth two years ago.”
"Two protons? They only sent two protons? What good is that?"
"Usefulness? Haven't you already felt it?"
Evans smiled.
"It was after the protons arrived on Earth that the Trisolaran civilization gradually reduced its contact with us."
Shi Qiang nodded, closed the document in his hand, stood up, glanced at Evans, and prepared to leave.
Next, Evans will face legal judgment and a long prison life.
However, when Shi Qiang was about to walk out of the interrogation room, Evans stopped him from behind.
"Shi, the Trisolaran civilization will arrive in a hundred years. Will you continue with the tree planting plan?"
Shi Qiang turned around, looked at him and said calmly:
"of course."
Although there were only two simple words, Evans could hear the confidence in them, so he nodded and told Shi Qiang the location of some of the ETO organization's funds that he had hidden.
"Those money should be regarded as my support for Mr. Guo and his people."
"Don't worry, it will happen."
Evans was eventually taken away by prison guards and put in jail, facing a life sentence.
A very important global meeting was held in the underground base of the special affairs department.
More than a dozen intelligence chiefs from major countries, as well as military and official representatives who had previously participated in the "Judgment Day" operation, attended the conference remotely via electronic devices.
During the meeting, General Chang Weisi, who was in charge of presiding over the meeting, looked at the representatives of various countries on the monitor and gave a detailed introduction to the existence of the Three-Body Civilization, the current situation facing human civilization, and the upcoming crisis in the future.
This surprised all the representatives of the countries participating in the meeting. Even though they did not come in person, the meeting place was extremely noisy because of the sound from the speakers.
General Chang Weisi shouted.
"Please note that according to the information we have obtained from ETO leader Evans, the current meeting is very likely under the surveillance of the Trisolaran civilization.
From now on, any secrets on Earth may no longer exist in the face of the Trisolaran civilization."
When he said this, everything around him was still familiar, but in the eyes of all the participants, the world was different from before. They felt that a pair of omnipresent eyes were staring at them. Under these eyes, there was no place to hide in this world.
However, Chang Weisi was not affected and continued:
"And it's not just the insights that are everywhere. According to what Dr. Ding Yi has speculated, the chaotic and disordered results of basic physics research on Earth are also likely to be influenced by the Three-Body Civilization.
They try to use more advanced technology to lock down our Earth civilization's research and development in the field of microscience, making it impossible for us to achieve breakthrough research results using the high-energy particle accelerators that we have spent a lot of money and time to build.
According to ETO leader Evans, as long as the two protons of the Trisolaran civilization exist, human science will not be able to make any significant progress. "
The noise in the conference room became louder. On the monitors, representatives from various countries expressed varying expressions, including doubt, panic, despair, and contemplation.
However, General Chang Weisi looked at the representatives of various countries in front of him, and also at the many audiences in front of the big screen, and said:
"I know that many people in front of the monitor have great concerns and worries about the advent of Trisolaran civilization and the blockade of technology, and some are even a little desperate.
But what I want to say is that since we are unable to stop the Three-Body Civilization from blocking and suppressing Earth’s technology, we have to rely more on our own strength.
In the current environment, facing such a huge threat as the Three-Body Fleet, all forces on our planet, all countries and all human beings should put aside all disputes and infighting and actively unite.
To use the words of a great leader, we must unite all forces that can be united, adhere to independence, work hard, and strive for self-improvement.
Some representatives of small countries couldn't help but nodded when they heard this, but representatives of some countries seemed to disagree with General Chang Weisi's words.
General Chang Weisi obviously noticed this, but he didn't care and said something that made the American representative's face turn ugly.
“Of course, I also know that some people are pessimistic about the future development of Earth civilization.
Just like the survivors in the ETO organization, they believe that the gap in strength between the two sides is too great, and no matter how the Earth civilization develops, it will not be able to defeat the Three-Body civilization in terms of technology and military force.
To this I just want to say, is the gap between humans and the Three-Body Civilization bigger than the gap between China and America in the 50s?
At that time, we in China were also facing blockade from the United States and its allies. The gap in strength between the two sides was so huge that it was also despairing.
But I'm sure everyone has seen what happened later.
Only more than 50 years have passed from the 60s to now, and the gap between China and the United States has now narrowed to a point where it is only a stone's throw away.
So let me paraphrase a great leader's speech during the war.
They can block the area as long as they want.
They block theirs, we build our own.
We must believe in the power of the people themselves, and we will definitely be able to completely defeat all the blockades and suppression by reactionary forces..."
As General Chang Weisi spoke, the camera began to zoom out, leaving the secret base of the special affairs department built underground and arriving above the land of China, flying through space and time, recording one picture after another.
There are different, ordinary faces in the picture.
There are young children with innocent smiles, farmers driving tractors to sow in the fields, dusty construction workers building high-rise buildings, angels in white running around in the hospital, graduate students doing experiments in the laboratory, and Mr. Guo planting a seedling on the edge of the desert and forest farm...
"The arrival and end of the Trisolaran Crisis never depended on us.
We don't make this decision, and we don't set any expectations. It all depends on the attitude of the Three-Body Civilization.
If they are willing to live in harmony with Earth civilization, so are we.
If they are unwilling and come with the intention of occupying the earth, we will fight them to the end, make the worst-case plan and the longest-term arrangement.
We will keep holding on until the Three-Body Civilization is willing to stop, and we will keep holding on until the people of Earth achieve complete victory.
We have and can only believe, long live the people! "
Wow!
Inside and outside the movie, the applause was thunderous and lasted for a long time.
Just three seconds after General Chang Weisi said this in the movie and everyone was excited, the Three-Body World had its first communication with humans outside the ETO organization on Earth.
Everyone in the conference room, whether they were underground or anywhere else on the earth, whether they were thousands of miles apart or just a stone's throw away, saw the message with their eyes.
Five bright red characters flashed before their eyes. They were traces left on their retinas by the intelligent beings of the Trisolaran civilization. Everyone read out its contents accurately.
[You are bugs! ]
At this moment, everyone on Earth subconsciously raised their heads.
Because the sky above their heads suddenly turned dark, then became bright again, then dark again, and bright again... The scene was as if the entire universe was flickering like a broken fluorescent light.
The last scene of "The Three-Body Problem 1" is a freeze frame of countless earthlings falling into darkness in horror. Then the movie ends completely, leaving the audience with only an infinite chill from the bottom of their hearts and endless imagination about the content of the subsequent story.
However, no matter how it feels, the second phase of the [Galaxy Cinematic Universe] has officially ended. If you want to know the subsequent story, you can only wait for the third phase [The Dark Forest] to be released.
After the movie was over, the cheering and applauding audience quickly sat down, patiently waiting for the post-credits Easter egg of "The Three-Body Problem 1".
This has become the standard configuration of the movie universe. It was the Galaxy Cinematic Universe that first used this tactic.
It’s a pity that perhaps because "The Three-Body Problem 1" is the finale of the second phase of the movie universe, its post-credits Easter eggs are neither numerous nor long.
The first easter egg lasts only one or two minutes. It shows Qin Feng sitting in the archives room of the special affairs department, sorting through a pile of old, yellowed documents. One of them is stamped with "Top Secret" and is pressed on a file bag in the pile of documents, revealing two beautiful handwritings [Red Bank].
The second easter egg was even shorter. This time, the audience only waited for one sentence after sitting for a long time. It was a familiar voice shouted by Wu Jing against the dark background.
"Hang in there! Don't give up!"
After that, the movie was completely over.
Such a sloppy post-credits Easter egg made most of the audience in the cinema look at each other in confusion. They couldn't figure out what tricks Wang Hao was playing. They felt it was not satisfying and wished they could catch Wang Hao and shoot the next stage of the movie universe.
However, there were also some veteran fans of the Galaxy Cinematic Universe at the scene. After seeing this post-credits easter egg, they were stunned at first, and then quickly remembered the first work of the Galaxy Cinematic Universe, "Buried", which they had watched.
Wang Hao's post-credits Easter egg is a double entendre, which encourages the earthlings in the movie and the moviegoers in reality. It also forms a connection with the first movie he shot, making the first and second stages of the "Galaxy Cinematic Universe" echo each other.
Wow!
Warm applause rang out again in the cinema because Wang Hao had led the film's main creators to the front of the stage.
This time, the reactions of the audience and fans were exceptionally enthusiastic, especially when discussing and communicating with the director, a large number of viewers actively asked questions and spoke up.
For them, "The Three-Body Problem 1" can be said to be an excellent work that transcends the times. Especially after watching the movie, countless passionate emotions and complicated thoughts appeared in their hearts like a volcano, making them feel uncomfortable.
