"I regret it."
Yang Yiwu looked at the images on the laptop and regretted letting these students watch this movie.
This is simply an echo between inside and outside. The people in the movie are suffering, and the people outside the movie are also suffering. It's super doubled.
Volcanoes erupt, tsunamis spread, typhoons pass through. Looking at the plot at the beginning, although Yang Yiwu thinks the special effects are indeed awesome, isn’t the plot a bit too tragic?
When Yang Yiwu was in college, he watched some disaster-themed movies. He had seen ships sink, the Statue of Liberty freeze, and the Yellowstone Park volcano erupt, but he had never seen all of them happen together.
He was a little worried that these images would affect the students' mental health.
But when he turned around, Yang Yiwu discovered that these children had their eyes wide open, watching the movie intently, more seriously than in class.
He had nothing to say.
In the movie, after several disasters occurred, people began to gather global forces to study the causes. There was no detailed research process here, because the geological changes were very complex, and the only conclusion was that there might be even greater disasters in the future.
At this moment, the perspective shifted to a messy office filled with documents and materials. A man was awakened by a ringing phone. He picked up the phone and started by refusing the sales pitch, but soon the voice on the phone made his sleepy eyes widen.
"What? Now? Teacher, are you kidding me?"
The man looked downstairs through the window and found a black luxury car parked there.
After packing up his things, the man got into the car. Sitting in the passenger seat was his teacher. Along the way, Yang Yiwu learned the man's name and the subject he was researching, which was about the connection between human consciousness and the consciousness of robots.
"Didn't you say that what I studied had no practical value? Why do you think of me now?"
The man still looked frivolous.
"If you just want to use the machine to revive your daughter, then of course it's worthless. What we want you to do is something more in-depth."
The teacher murmured.
The expression on the man's face froze, and his memories unfolded, showing him holding his daughter who died in an accident, and a flashback of him using his daughter's brain as a basis to build artificial intelligence.
What Yang Yiwu, who had not seen the trailer before, did not know was that the daughter who appeared in the man’s memory at this moment was Lin in the ecological park.
After arriving at his destination deep in the mountains, the man took another plane.
The students looked at the plane with envy in their eyes. Yang Yiwu smiled slightly. What boy didn't dream of flying a plane when he was a child?
Along the way, various explanations made Yang Yiwu understand that this man was recruited to deal with previous disasters. They will be a group of the most elite scientists and scholars, conducting research to save the world.
The plane landed in a city. The roofs of the city were covered with solar panels, and there were robots cleaning the streets. It looked like a cutting-edge technology city. It was said that it was once a demonstration property of a certain company, but now it has been accepted by a joint committee of various countries and has become a place for these researchers and engineers to live.
The man was arranged to live in, and he followed others to a nearby industrial park, where several more characters appeared.
As the research screen switched, Yang Yiwu roughly knew that some of these people were astronomers studying wormholes that appeared in the desert, some were biologists and medical scientists studying biological diseases, and there were also scholars like him in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence.
It seems that humans have begun to prepare to fight against disasters.
The wind and snow outside seemed to be getting stronger. Yang Yiwu glanced at the window that was being banged on and checked if there was any damage. He looked into the distance and saw that even the street lights were gone. It was pitch black with only wind and snow all over the sky. He seemed to be in a world after the end of the world.
Sitting back down, the man had finished his first day of meetings and work assignments. He returned to his residence and went out to eat.
It was a bustling commercial street, with robots playing the piano. People from all over the world gathered here, facing a global disaster.
On the TV in the noodle shop, the disaster continued. An earthquake swept across a small island country. The entire island fell into the ocean while shaking, which was terrifying.
The researcher next to the man praised the noodles, saying they were the same as those he had eaten at home. The man was curious and asked the researcher why he could be so relaxed in such a desperate situation.
"We have gathered the power of the world here. We are the hope of the entire world. If we still don't choose to believe in hope, then this world is definitely doomed."
The other party answered, then finished the noodle soup, paid and left.
The man was walking on the street and he saw a botanical garden. He walked in and found that the garden was full of mechanical animals. These were the top achievements of artificial intelligence technology.
The man suddenly thought, whether his daughter could stay here, he found the head of the committee. Although the head felt that this would not help save the world, he could not persuade the man, so he transported his "daughter", the robot, here and placed her in the botanical garden.
The man set some data for his "daughter" and let it serve as a guide in the ecological park. In his view, the scene of the robot playing with the animals was like his own daughter coming to life.
However, the man knew very well that this was just a machine, a machine that imitated his daughter's every move to the greatest extent possible.
However, everyone likes this girl very much. Coming to the ecological park to relax has become a daily must for many researchers, and the men's research is also continuing.
Seeing this, Yang Yiwu felt a little emotional. When he was in college, he also liked to go to the school square in the evening, listen to the songs on the radio, sit on a bench and watch people coming and going.
That was his way of resting his brain.
No matter who you are, there will always be times when you feel tired. Being able to relax at that time is more refreshing than anything else.
The weather seemed to be getting colder, and the students gathered together, snuggling together for warmth, just like humans in the movie.
Yang Yiwu suddenly felt that such human beings could overcome any difficulties and withstand any disasters.
"Is it cold?"
He asked the student next to him.
“It’s not cold.”
The student shook his head and pulled his neck into the quilt.
The charcoal fire made crackling sounds, and the scene in the movie came to the universe. On the cloud map, a huge typhoon eye was forming in the ocean. The camera slowly moved towards the typhoon, through the clouds with lightning and thunder, and came to the sea where heavy rain and waves were intertwined. A huge ship was bumping. In an instant, the ship capsized, and the large ship with lights on slowly sank to the bottom of the sea, and the light became hazy.
The camera floated up and saw people struggling on the sea, wailing loudly.
Suddenly, the storm around us seemed to stop, as if the storm had passed.
But before those people had time to cheer, a spot of white spread across the sea.
This is the coldest place in the eye of the storm.
The temperature here was even below zero, and snow was falling on the sea.
In an instant, the people floating on the sea were frozen, with the expressions on their faces solidified.
Seeing this, a mother with her child swam desperately, trying to swim into the storm.
But she couldn't swim out of the typhoon. When the sea froze and she saw that she could no longer swim out, the mother pushed her child hard, pushing him towards the sea which had not yet frozen.
But even so, her efforts were unsuccessful. The moment the child looked back, his body and expression were frozen in place, turning into an ice sculpture.
Watching the scenes in the movie, Yang Yiwu felt even colder.
