It tells a story about a robot gradually gaining self-awareness, through continuous efforts to transform, and finally getting love and becoming a real human being.
The story takes place in the era of rapid technological development in the future, and every household has a robot. In order to surprise his family, Mr. Martin bought a robotic butler named Andrew.
At first, Mrs. Martin and the two children were a little scared of robots. After getting along for a while, the eldest daughter still hates Andrew very much, so she often grabs Andrew.
On one occasion he was ordered to jump out of an upstairs window. Andrew jumped out without saying a word, and fell covered with mud and damaged parts. Mr. Martin told his sister Andrew that it was our property and not to be destroyed.
But on the contrary, the second daughter is very kind and shares her favorite pony statue with Andrew. But Andrew accidentally smashed the pony statue, and the second daughter was very sad.
In order to comfort the second lady, Andrew taught himself sculpture and carved an identical pony for her. The second lady was very happy, and she began to treat Andrew as her good friend.
Soon Mr. Martin discovered that Andrew was special, not only with extraordinary creativity, but also listening to music with human emotions. So Mr. Martin took Andrew back to the manufacturing company and asked about the situation. The manufacturing company offered to recycle Andrew at a premium, but Mr Martin refused. Mr. Martin returned home and began to consciously teach Andrew's human culture, and allowed him to freely create various alarm clocks and sculptures at home.
As the years went by, Andrew not only learned more human knowledge, the second lady taught Andrew to play the piano and helped him set up his own account. With the help of Mr. Martin's family, Andrew exchanged his contribution for a sum of money. A lot of income.
When the second lady got married, Andrew took the money he had earned from making clocks over the years to go to the machine company for plastic surgery, so that his face could be emotional. Added human expression elements and put on a dress for the reception at the wedding.
Andrew has been educated by Mr. Martin over the years and has read countless books. The more Andrew understands, the more he wants to be free, so he took all the money he earned from making clocks to "redeem" Mr. Martin. Mr. Martin did not closed, gave Andrew the freedom he wanted and let Andrew leave the house.
Andrew built his own cabin by the sea and began to live alone. I haven't seen Mr. Martin again for many years.
Mr. Martin talked to Andrew before his death. Although Mr. Martin's wife insisted that Andrew was just a robot, Mr. Martin had always tried to educate and help Andrew. At this moment, he also recognized Andrew's idea of freedom.
The death of Mr. Martin made Andrew confused about the world, so he took up a journey and traveled all over the world, trying to find a robot of the same model as him, and to find the meaning of his life.
He walked for many years, in many places, but to no avail. When he was about to end his journey, he found a robot, Galatea, who was dancing and dancing on the street.
Andrew followed Galatia to a factory and met the second nobleman in his life, Rube Barnes, the son of Andrew's manufacturing inventor, a scientist who also had a strong desire to research and manufacture robots but had a deflated pocket. . Only then did he discover that the female robot did not have an independent mind like him, but was installed with a personality chip.
But it was not completely fruitless. Andrew saw that this scientist had created many human simulated organs. With Andrew's funding, Rube Barnes was supported by scientific research funds to help Andrew carry out skin improvements, and Andrew had human organs. appearance.
Under the transformation of scientists, Andrew has a human appearance, but when she returns to Martin's house, she mistook her granddaughter Bo Xia for the second lady.
It turns out that 20 years have passed, and the second lady is already old.
Later, Miss Second passed away, and Andrew was very sad, but without human lacrimal glands, he couldn't cry. He is not yet a real person. During his time with Bo Xia, Andrew gradually fell in love with this girl who looked very much like the Second Miss.
When he saw that Portia was going to marry someone else, Andrew asked her if she liked him too. And Bo Xia is also very contradictory.
On the one hand, Andrew can indeed bring happiness to Bo Xia, and his heart follows him unknowingly. But on the other hand, Andrew is a robot. Reason tells himself that he can't fall in love with robots.
After being rejected by Bo Xia because he was a machine, he was angry. At this time, Barnes proposed to help Andrew to transform again, so that Andrew had all human body organs and all human senses, so that Andrew could ingest solid food and liquid, and plucked up the courage to express his love to Bo Xia.
After that, Andrew not only changed his physical structure, but also made some adjustments in his thinking. He would also make mistakes and be impulsive like a human being. He bravely confessed to Bo Xia, kissed Bo Xia, and told Bo Xia that he had feelings. Then the two of them did indescribable things.
But Bo Xia was willing, and the love between Andrew and Bo Xia was not recognized by the law and was not accepted by the world.
So Andrew applied to the Federal Court to apply for his qualifications to become a human being. But on the first application, a federal court rejected his application on the grounds that there are no immortal humans in the world.
After being with Bo Xia for decades, Bo Xia is also getting old and refuses to use machines to replace his organs in exchange for his life. She wants to grow old naturally.
Andrew couldn't live without Bo Xia, so Andrew found Barnes again and asked to inject blood into himself so that he could age like a human being. In the end, Andrew went to federal court again, asking the court to determine the fact that he was human.
The World Congress recognized Andrew as a human, but Andrew had died when the decision was announced. Portia immediately asked Galatia to pull out the plug of life extension and followed Andrew.
