Coquettish Rebirth

When preparing the movie "Inception", Jia Hongjian found a domestic science fiction novel "Seven Shells" that he had read in history. ☆→Top☆→Point☆→Small☆→Speaking, such a seven-fold shell is not a story about dreams in Jia Hongjian’s memory——Jia Hongjian’s memory was wrong, and it’s actually about a person’s experience. The story of the virtual reality environment, such a person went to a base and was invited to conduct tests to help developers discover the shortcomings of some virtual reality products.During the test, he will put on a jumpsuit that will allow his entire body to interact with the virtual environment.For example, if you step on something very hot in the virtual environment, then the soles of the feet of the jumpsuit will also stimulate the nerves on the soles of the feet and make them feel burnt!In this way, it is easy for people to be unable to distinguish between reality and virtuality!

Such a test is done when the person is awake. The first test is to let the person fall into the sea while he is awake. Of course, people will soon find out that something is wrong.Then the buddy who invited him in suspended the experiment, saying that he was very good and the product needed to be improved, so he let him go.In the end, I didn't expect that such a thing as letting him go and the virtual environment that was so easy to recognize before were actually all a cover!They deliberately created a virtual environment that can be seen by the mentally retarded at a glance as fake. Any normal person suddenly fell into the sea when he was awake, who would not know that this thing is fake?He was still at the base one second, and in the sea the next second, is this stupid?But just such an action is deliberately letting people relax their vigilance. In fact, the so-called "life after going out" is the virtual reality environment!

The protagonist ran to the wine to play, drank a lot of water after drinking, and encountered an accident and found a dead person, but in the end he found out that it was fake - because he drank so much liquid, unexpectedly No desire to go to the toilet at all!After being cracked this time.It was the same as before, the buddy said oh, you are too powerful, I didn't expect you to crack it all, you should rest for a few days and we will improve the system... But it didn't take long for the protagonist to discover something different from the real world !It turns out that the so-called being cracked before is still a trick, and it is still a way to let people relax their vigilance!I really don't know how many layers of covers that buddy put on him!Next, the protagonist sometimes verifies whether he is in the real world by pricking himself with a needle or something.Sometimes it was through other inconspicuous ways, but by the seventh time, he was persuaded!That's right, he was terrified, because it is completely impossible to distinguish whether it is virtual or real with needles and the like, so unless it is really hurting yourself severely once, or simply committing suicide once, there is no way to distinguish whether it is true or not. Really virtual world!This is how to do?

Such a story is actually quite related to Nolan's "Inception". In fact, it tells a story that makes people wonder whether the environment where their consciousness is located is virtual or real.Such a theme is actually enduring in Hollywood!Like in 99. Isn't "The Matrix" also a story from the source of such an idea?And about the same year, "No. 13th Floor" or a movie called "Different Dimension Hacker" in Chinese, which is not known to many people, actually tells a story derived from such an idea.Such a "No. 13th Floor" is about a programming dog hired by a company to develop a virtual reality game.

In such an era at the end of the 20th century, a game they developed was in the United States around 1920. The city made it just like the real thing, and then several of them made characters in the game according to their own image At the same time, they can also synchronize their consciousness into the game characters.in short.That is, when they are not around, the game in the computer runs automatically.Those characters also do their own things according to the AI ​​setting, and then when their brains are connected to the computer, and their thoughts are synchronized into the characters, they become a kind of people whose brains live in the 1920s , and the body is actually still in 1999.

But at such a time, an old man who was a good friend of the protagonist was killed.Then a woman appeared, who she said was the old man's daughter, but the old man had never said that he had a daughter before!Then the protagonist himself found himself a suspect in killing the old man, and even when his suspicion became more and more serious, all the evidence showed that he did indeed kill the old man.But he didn't!Only at the end did he realize that he was not a real person... He was actually a character in a virtual reality game created in the future in a game created at the end of the 99 century. He was the same as himself in the game he created. Like that npc character, it was also created by its own "master".When his master does not enter his body, he is an npc, living his life according to the set personality, when the master enters his body, he is frustrated!

In the end, he successfully defeated the master, his consciousness was uploaded into the master's body, and then he lived happily with the master's wife—that is, the woman who claimed to be the old man's daughter in his 99-year world !Such a story is really similar to the core idea of ​​"The Matrix", but the problem is that although everyone's core idea is similar, it is much different in the field of storytelling. It is obviously a story about the current living environment. For a story with such a core concept as virtual, how wonderful and beautiful is the story of "The Matrix" told?And what about such a "Dimensional Hacker"?Relatively speaking, it is not so exciting!

In Jia Hongjian's view, first of all, the story is a bit bland, the structure of rings and rings is not well laid out, and the hint of the endless loop at the end is not thorough enough.Secondly, the temperament and acting skills of several actors cannot support a science fiction film of this scale.Third, who let this movie meet "The Matrix"?Once The Matrix came out, it almost earned the limelight, but when the movie came out again, it looked a lot worse. The same idea, different fate, this is the difference!

Of course, such an idea of ​​doubting whether reality is a dream or a fiction has existed since ancient times.Dating back to a cold winter day in the seventeenth century, the French philosopher Descartes, who was afraid of the cold, hid in a warm fireplace to think about his philosophical problems as usual.Do not underestimate this seemingly ordinary day, which was later considered by an archbishop to be the most unlucky day in European history.So what was Brother Descartes thinking in the fireplace?Descartes thought that our real life may be just a dream, because when we dream, we don't know that everything we see in the dream is false, and we only realize that it is just a dream after waking up.How, then, can we be sure that what we feel to be real is just another dream?Descartes also assumed that there was an extremely powerful demon who created everything around us for evil purposes, including all human history and all our memories... Descartes carefully considered all these possibilities Thinking, as we all know, his conclusion is: I think, therefore I am - only thinking itself is certain, from which we can be sure of our own existence.

Cartesian doubts do not lack successors. For example, Hume believes that everything is unknowable except perception, and people can only stay on this shore of sensory experience, and cannot reach the other shore that can produce sensory experience.That is to say, people cannot grasp the essence of the world, and sensory experience is like a barrier that isolates the objects of consciousness. People will never know what is behind this barrier.Kant divided the world into two parts: the phenomenal world and the noumenal world.People's cognition can only be limited to the phenomenon world, and people know nothing about the noumenon world.There are too many literary and artistic works that talk about dreams and psychology. "Doraemon" has many themes that children love to hear and see, and it also uses the dream pillow cover to experience triple dreams.For most of his life, Borges wrote dreams, mirrors, mazes, etc. under the structure of various mysterious geometric figures, and he casually traced back, as far as the various fantasy structures in "Arabian Nights", and nearly Seeing the meditation on the structure of the universe of religious people, it shows that many of you have never thought about "whether the real world is a dream" or not.There are not many examples of science fiction.In fact, there is no need to arm yourself with literary and artistic works, just chat with a friend, and he may talk to you about similar ideas.

Even Jia Hongjian saw more than one person say this on the Internet: "When I was a child, I often wondered whether there is an infinitely small universe in the smallest particles, whether we are wrapped in another particle, and there are Innumerable universes? Or, are we all just the product of someone's dream?" The last sentence, in fact, has a similar joke in various scholastic philosophies before.After pondering the concept prototypes of various material names, it is inevitable that there will be some "God created the world with thought, and we are all just characters in God's dream". Of course, such ideas are usually heresy and should be harmonious.

From a certain point of view, Jia Hongjian thought that as Nolan's partner, he helped Nolan to complete such a story well, and he would not waste a good story like "Hackers from Different Dimensions" , He even made up for some small logical loopholes in Nolan's movies, making the story of the movie look fuller and more beautiful.At the same time, coupled with Nolan's own design, as well as his own style, the popularity and praise of such a movie is a certainty. In history, this movie has a good reputation and box office. It can be said that if it is not for the history of If Nolan's "Youth of Pi" is used as an obstacle, Nolan's film may win the Oscar for Best Director or the Oscar for Best Picture!

And in such a time and space, because of Jia Hongjian's existence, "Youth Pi" will definitely not appear, so he came to make such an "Inception", will the Oscar honor fall to such a film? What about the movie?It can be said that the future results will depend on how the filming takes place after this!With such an idea in mind, Jia Hongjian threw himself into various preparatory work with full confidence. He was going to use 100% of his energy to make such a film!He is going to win the best director and best picture!His ambitions are huge! (To be continued..)
