The anti-fraud bureau needs a promotional video, and you're going to make a "Desperate Gam

She successfully deciphered the radio waves.

The content of the radio broadcast was far more terrifying than people could have imagined.

Do not respond!

Do not respond!

Do not respond!

Although *Remembrance of Earth* doesn't yet introduce the concept of the "Dark Forest," these three repeated sentences are filled with a chilling undercurrent. An extraterrestrial civilization outside our solar system has detected a message from Earth, and the Trisolaran civilization immediately sends a warning—do not respond. Once radio waves are transmitted, the signal source's coordinates will be exposed, and Earth, long accustomed to peace, will inevitably invite an extraterrestrial invasion.

Has Ye Wenjie responded?

"I don't know, I haven't read the original book."

"They probably won't respond, right?"

Before the audience could even finish speaking, Ye Wenjie in the film resolutely sent out radio waves. Years of suffering and a deep-seated hatred for humanity's original sin led her to believe that human civilization alone could not eradicate its inherent flaws; a greater force was needed. The radio waves ultimately pierced the universe, sowing the seeds of humanity's impending doom. Complex emotions surged in the theater; the plot's impact struck directly at the heart, captivating the audience's thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

"Is the Blue Star civilization doomed to perish like this?"

I don't know what to say, sigh!

"I can understand Ye Wenjie's situation, but I cannot condone the destruction of all mankind."

"Should all of humanity be sacrificed because of hatred for a few people?"

"Dangerous revolutionaries... But I wonder, can humanity truly solve its own problems?"

"Are higher-dimensional civilizations gods to us?"

The theater was packed with people, and despite the film's four-hour runtime, it remained eerily quiet. The audience seemed to be experiencing humanity's darkest hour, on the brink of destruction, alongside the characters in the story.

After recounting her past at Hong'an, Ye Wenjie found Wang Miao. The film's ending begins to answer the question posed at the beginning: Why did Ye Wenjie want Wang Miao to join the ETO (Electronic Toll Collection) organization?

Ye Wenjie stood on the stage and explained to Wang Miao the reason why the Earth rebels were obstructing his nanotechnology research: "If humanity masters nanotechnology, it can make a large-scale advance into space."

"A space elevator?" Wang Miao asked in surprise.

Ye Wenjie revealed the core of the ultimate betrayal: "You associate 'flying blade' with a space elevator. This may be just a small invention, but it is of great significance to humanity on Earth. Building a space elevator that connects Earth's surface to geostationary orbit on Blue Star will provide technological support for humanity to enter near-Earth space, and it will also make it possible to build a large-scale defense system in space. But this will hinder the coming of the Lord and must be nipped in the bud."

Wang Miao shook his head and questioned, "This is meaningless. Applied research is different from basic research. Once the general direction is set, others can also complete it."

"Disrupting the researcher's mind is the most effective method."

Wang Miao said emotionally, "Applied research doesn't depend on individuals like basic research does; you can't stop it!"

He was on the verge of collapse, teetering on the brink of mental breakdown countless times. Images from the past flashed through his mind, and he gradually began to understand the cause of Yang Dong's death. "What lies at the end of the countdown?" This question, perhaps, had no answer from the very beginning. As a traitor to humanity, Ye Wenjie did not want humanity to be saved. A heavy silence permeated the theater. Using the sun as an amplifier to transmit radio waves, building a space elevator with nanotechnology, constructing a protective membrane in outer space… these concepts were undeniably impressive to the audience. Even more terrifying was the fact that, as ordinary people, they knew almost nothing about real science.

Will there really be a space elevator?

"Nanotechnology has been developing and may have reached a higher stage."

"We really know very little about the world."

"Research into extraterrestrial civilizations has never stopped; anything is possible."

During Ye Wenjie's conversation with Wang Miao, the camera flashed conceptual images of a space elevator and a protective membrane for Earth, giving the audience a direct understanding of the abstract concepts in the book. Just as the ETO was having a heated discussion about the scientific boundaries, a smoke bomb was suddenly thrown in—with a series of muffled bangs, soldiers carrying machine guns rushed in, and everyone hurriedly covered their heads and crouched down.

In the cramped space, the camera shakily pans as the crowd flees in panic. Wang Miao crouches on the ground, and the military, with his assistance, storms the venue.

"Don't move, everyone! Crouch down!"

"Team One is in position."

"Report: The eastern district is under control."

"Report: The North District is under control."

"Second team, keep a close watch; don't let a single one escape!"

"Report, there are approximately five to six armed men."

Are you carrying any other weapons?

"unknown."

The cold echo of gunfire reverberated as soldiers quickly located Wang Miao and escorted him to safety. Chaos erupted in the hall. Just as the military was regaining control, Shi Qiang strode in: "Attention all squads, except for Ye Wenjie, Chen Xue, and the other four, everyone else is under control. The other two are carrying unidentified objects and may be dangerous."

Ye Wenjie stood calmly in the center of the venue, with several rebel soldiers guarding her with guns behind her. Shi Qiang stood opposite her, the light and shadow outlining Ye Wenjie's cold and stern features, while soldiers stood ready behind Shi Qiang.

"Put down all weapons! Subdue anyone who resists on the spot!" Shi Qiang's voice boomed. "Ordinary restrictions and laws are ineffective against you, and the laws of human warfare do not apply. Since you are enemies of all humanity, there is no need to show mercy today!"

Yang Xue, standing behind Ye Wenjie, stepped forward proudly, holding an atomic bomb the size of a ball in her hand.

"Officers, we have three atomic bombs in our possession."

"Report! Nuclear weapon detected!"

"Repeat! Nuclear weapon detected!" (End of Chapter)
