Actually.... As long as you read the original "External Bacteria/Dead City" published in the 1970s, you will know the advanced and wonderful aspects of this book. There was no current technological development in those days, the biology/medicine and intelligent computers described in it It's all a cult plot of science fiction. Of course, it's more general and ordinary today! This is a very formal science fiction novel, and the biological and medical viewpoints used in it are completely traceable. The book contains There are a lot of notes to explain each professional term in the text, which belongs to the category of pure science, and the movie cannot be listed one by one, so only after reading a formal novel will you understand the scientific plot! Of course, ordinary people watching movies see it. I'm confused! But the most important thing is that the playwright is greedy... The

original work is pure science fiction, without any conspiracy or political meaning, all scientists are white, what reporters, presidents, military and conspirators are all No, and bacteria are also messengers of aliens. There is no future human affairs... But in order to complicate the story, the movie has added a lot of branches, but it can't justify itself, making the story anticlimactic and chaotic... This is the screenwriting chaos. Redirected to the problem of plot logic... So in the 1971 version of "Outer Bacteria", the story is much simpler and much more compact!
