[Film Background]
First of all, the background of the whole story is fictitious.
In 1945, the Soviet Union captured Hokkaido. In 1965, all the communist countries in the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, and Asia formed the "federal state", and the Hokkaido region was renamed "Ezo" and belonged to the "federal state." In 1975, the "Federal State" broke off diplomatic relations with Japan, and Japan split from north to south. The situation continues to this day... The three protagonists live in southern Japan, and the white pagoda stands in the northern "Ezo".
[Main Characters]
Actor 1: Hiroshi
Actor 2: Takino
Actress: Sayori
Important supporting roles: Hiroshi, the uncle of the factory where Takino’s part-time job is located, and the head of the research institute where Takino is a
dark line figure (not shown) ): Sayuri ’s grandfather (or grandfather or something) -Exxon Tsukinoe -scientist
[Props in the film]
1. Airplane "Bella Sila": made by two male protagonists
2. Tower: by Ai Built by Kerson Tsukino River, it towers over Ezo in the north, and the towering white pagoda can be seen throughout southern Japan, like a dividing line of the sky.
The tower can capture information from parallel universes, and based on the information captured, scientists can make future predictions about the actual universe. If we can accurately predict the future, it will have a profound impact on science, military, and politics.
In the film, Xin Haicheng has no mercy on the scientific development of the current physics and the current level of architecture!
[Emotional relationship]
Hiroshi and Sayuri are in love with each other, and Takino should also like Sayuri, but the film does not explain.
[Film Plot]
If you don't consider Xin Haicheng's reverse order, the story is like this in order:
Exon Tsukinoe (Grandpa Sayuri) was the first scientist to prove the existence of "parallel universes". Parallel universes are like all kinds of dreams in our universe. The information of parallel universes can help predict the future of the real universe. Exxon Tsukinoe built the tower before Japan's north-south split. The tower can capture information from parallel universes and input the captured information into Sayuri's sleep state. At the same time, the tower will also replace the current space with the space of the parallel universe according to Sayuri’s sleep state. Sayuri’s awakeness is the key to the tower’s space conversion (the why & how videos are not mentioned... and when the tower is built, Zuo Yuri was not born, and she and her physicist grandfather had never met).
Then Japan split into two parts: the north and the south.
Hiroshi and Takino are good friends, living in southern Japan after the split. The two picked up a jet engine and wanted to jointly build a plane "Bela Sila" to fly to the tower and see with their own eyes the tower towering over the northern part of the sky. Sayuri was a classmate of Hiroki and Takuya, and wanted to see the tower even after learning about the existence of the aircraft "Bella Sila". So taking a plane to see the tower became the agreement of the three people. So far we know the meaning of the poetic title of the film.
Then Sayuri disappeared somehow. Hiroki and Takuya were also discouraged and stopped making airplanes. Then Hiroki and Takino went to different high schools. Hiroki went to a regular high school, and Takino specialised in physics in high school, very advanced! In the third year of high school, he entered the research room as a researcher, specializing in the space conversion of the tower.
In fact, Sayuri did not disappear, but fell asleep. Sleep for three years. In the dream, she was in a parallel universe. The parallel universe was very desolate, and only Sayuri was alone. She wandered by herself for three years... In reality, the sleepy Sayuri was lying in the hospital for observation and treatment before being sent off. Go to the research institute where Takuya is located. Because the researchers found that her sleep and dreams were related to the space replacement of the tower. In short, if she is conscious, the tower will use itself as the center of the circle and the radius of n kilometers to replace the surrounding space with the space of the parallel universe. The size of n depends on how awake she is. If she is a little awake, n should be smaller (for example, the value in the film: 26 kilometers). If she is completely awake, the entire universe will be replaced.
Hiroki (very nonsensical) learned of Sayuri's situation through telepathy and so on... and decided to save her and make her sober. He felt that the way to awaken Sayuri was to complete their agreement and take the sleeping body of Sayuri to the tower by plane. Hiroshi asked Takino to secretly bring the sleeping Sayuri out of the research room. Takino began to quit, because Sayuri woke up, and the entire universe was replaced, which was equivalent to the destruction of this universe. But then Takino agreed again (all entanglements, struggles, and groans are omitted here). So Sayuri was rescued.
At that time, just as the southern and northern parts of Japan decided to go to war again, Hiroshi and Takino came up with a way to get the best of both worlds: to build the originally abandoned aircraft "Bela Sila", and fly the plane while the sky was full of fighter jets during the war. The chaotic scene flew to the tower, and then fired another missile to blow up the tower, so that even if Sayuri woke up, the tower could no longer perform space conversion. But the flaw is that Sayuri will lose all her memories in the parallel universe.
The uncle of the factory director and the director of the Institute of Physics, as members of a certain organization "oppose the federal state and regain Hokkaido" (similar in nature to the Manchu Council), originally planned to blow up the tower secretly (the physical strength of southern Japan was originally based on the federal There is a huge gap between countries, not to mention the fact that the Federal State also has a tower that can capture future information, which is really a great threat), so when they bombed the tower, they provided Takino and Hiroki with technical and material support.
Because the built plane can only carry two people, Hiroki and Sayuri, who was still asleep, set off for the northern tower when the battle started, and Takino stayed in the south to wait for good news. Then their plan was successful, the tower exploded, Sayuri woke up, and the space replacement stopped in time. Sayuri took Hiroki’s hand while she hadn’t lost her memory and confessed her heart. How longing for Hao Ji), and then she lost her memory. So the actor fell into the kind of disease-free groan described in the opening of the movie-forever alone.
-----------------------------------------Finish-------- ----------------------------------
Xin Haicheng tells the story, in order to shape that lingering like a bleak cloud The faint resentment, coupled with the tasteless excessive white space, eventually caused the story to be unclear.
Putting aside other things, the deep physics in this film was originally very shocking. Perhaps watching this film should focus on the emotional problems of three teenagers, but since you Xin Haicheng used such a profound scientific topic as your gimmick of moaning without illness, you should explain it a little more clearly, right?
The girl’s grandpa is not useful, the tower’s explanation is unclear, and how the girl becomes the key to space transformation is not explained at all in the film. In addition, all the characters in the film live "independently" in order to set off the sad atmosphere. They can be called cloned sheep without parents or mothers.
I think it would be better for Xiaoxin to make a movie like "5 Centimeters Per Second" that doesn't tell the story but only moans.
As a screenwriter & director, Xin Haicheng seems to treat the audience as a group of known plots, using a freehand approach to retell a story we have been familiar with, but we are not.
Xiaoxin is going to make a film adaptation, and he will definitely make Qiong Yao's novels very beautiful.
PS "In a city with a population of more than 30 million, if you think about it, there is no one who wants to talk." This sentence seems to resonate with many people and push the film to an unattainable height. I want to say: You may be suffering from social anxiety disorder. This is a disease and you can get treatment!
