After reading the trilogy of Matrix, reload, and revolution today, I thought of many things I have seen and learned in the past 10 years. I pondered for a while, and to summarize, the movie probably means this:
You have a computer with XP system installed. We compare XP system to Matrix. Based on XP system, we developed Ghost Recovery Wizard and 360 Security Guard. We compare these two software to Architect and Oracle. This is how things developed: Ghost built and backed up all the data of the XP system. After the XP system has been running for a period of time, it has stored a lot of data, and there has been a lot of redundant data. These redundant data come from XP but do not belong to it. XP, and it will affect the speed of XP, we call it zion. One day, the XP system was invaded by a virus. We call this virus Smith. The XP system has been running for a while, so the driver wizard made a startup disk, which we call The One. After the startup disk is running, the system deletes all redundant data and viruses. The difference is that the system is patched with SP1 this time. After running for a period of time, redundancy still appears and ice becomes more rampant, then the boot disk appears, the system is restored, and the SP2 patch is applied... and so on. Then 360 security guards discovered that the patches were getting bigger and bigger, and the virus was getting stronger and stronger, invading every corner of the system. So 360 finally couldn't bear it, ignoring the boot disk of the driver wizard, and downloaded a new thing called Neo from the Internet. To be honest, 360 didn't know if it was easy to use. Neo directly entered Bios (machine world) to negotiate with the machine, saying that I can help you kill this type of virus forever, but you have to promise me not to damage the data in other disks, so Neo enters, and a more perfect system Win7 is born.
Some parts of this metaphor may seem inappropriate, but we can always find some movie mappings in it. There are surprising similarities between the two. I keep asking myself why things that are irrelevant at two levels are possible. Are there similarities? The rhetoric of metaphor in Chinese can be seen everywhere, and similar things in life can be seen everywhere, but we are all used to all this. Are these really normal? 99% of the people in the Matrix world feel that this world is so perfect. They eat, work, and have sex but they never feel anything unusual in this world. Habit is a terrible thing. If you see every day, what an incredible thing will become so common. It's as if you believe that experts say that drinking more water is good for your health. You will take it for granted that our standard of living is better than that of ancient times. To be much higher, you will stand at the height of the country to scold Japanese devils and Korean sticks. Matrix is a nearly perfect world, and it is also a terrible world. The perfect place is people's sorrows and joys, people's separation, people's struggle, people's enjoyment, just love and hate love, just like birth, old age, sickness and death; the terrible thing is your five senses. All the information received is computer simulation and pre-designed.
The first generation of Matrix designed by Architect is the kind of world we mentioned above. I used it to describe it as almost perfect because it had such a problem. 1% of people have a natural instinct to doubt the world. They always feel that There is something wrong in this world, but they can't tell what it is. They are confused, wandering, and unable to sleep. There will always be some bugs in the system, but ghosts, philosophies, and even religions can be used to make up for them. However, these 1% of suspected thoughts cannot be solved by these methods. If they are not processed, they are like bacteria in corrupted food. Breeding, will eventually destroy the entire Matrrx system. So the second-generation Matrix appeared. Once people with this kind of thinking were discovered, they had to be reformed, and if they couldn't be reformed, they would be destroyed.
Morpheus said: Swallow the blue pill, these stories are over, you get up as usual, and then you believe whatever you want. Swallow the red pill, I will take you to see and see, I can only tell you the truth. The blue pill means a house, a child, a car, a struggle, and a career that can be seen far away. The red pill means a dark underground world, snot-like food, and the danger of death at any time. The truth, is it really that important? Someone said: I would rather choose the blue pill, I know all this is fake, but knowing is enough, the story is over, I get up as usual, I clearly understand the cause of the discomfort, but life continues, because I like it Life, I don't want to swallow the red pill and lose sight of my own life. One day, I suddenly found out that I used to think that we were all people who swallowed blue pills. We all knew it was fake, but we still enjoyed it. But that's not the case. Many people have never seen any pills. Maybe they only know about ecstasy. .
Some people who have seen pills live happily in Matrix because they understand that no system or system can be perfect. In any system, there are always truths that are outside of logic. In the yin and yang picture, white and black are opposites, but there is black in white, and white in black. Just like Neo and Smith, one has the ability to save the world and the other has the ability to destroy the world. They are superhumans who see through the world and jump out of the five elements, but they cannot escape the "yin and yang" rules, and no one can kill anyone. , Can only create a new balance in the same way. In the history of Jesus, Lao Tzu, Buddha, Hitler, Osama bin Laden, who is Neo and who is Smith has to be judged by time.
The senses are the easiest to deceive people's thoughts, and are the best at hiding the truth. The deeper you indulge in the Matrix world, the further away you will be from Zion. The 21st century is an era in which all kinds of materials are maximized. We can call it science and technology, and it is also an era in which all kinds of human nature are buried. We just want to see the towering high-rise buildings in Matrix, but we don't want to think about the doubts in our hearts. Human beings at the top of the food chain behave more and more like the lowest life-viruses. Smith said: You humans reproduce wantonly like viruses and wantonly damage the environment. I ask for it from the earth all day long, I have to dig the coal in the bones, drain the oil from the blood vessels, and build a dam in the lymphatic vessels.
Why is our world so similar to Matrix!
No matter what kind of education you have received, how many grades you have been in, everyone has this feeling in their hearts more or less: We will continue to zoom in and out of our perspective: we will slowly see the whole earth, and then the more the earth It’s getting smaller and smaller, becoming the size of a table tennis ball, and then the size of a grain of sand, and then the entire solar system and the Milky Way become smaller, and the entire universe is getting smaller. Suddenly you find yourself kneeling on the ground, looking at the beach. A rose blooming.
Things have perfect self-similarity on different levels, and modern people have given it a name-fractal. I think this is also the reason why this rhetorical device of metaphor exists. It's like if there is a wave in your eyes, you can't tell whether it is the whole wave, one of the whole wave, or the wave in the wave. Reminds me of Zhuangzi or Butterfly? The top is down or not, is it real and illusory? These two syllables come from the section of Canon? Which section of Mobius's is this?
Where is our world? Matrix?
Maybe we need the Buddha to see through the world, maybe we need Lao Tzu's Taoism name, maybe we need the rebirth of the suffering of Jesus to see the truth in the world. Or maybe you don’t know the true face of Mount Lu and you are only in this mountain. If so, you can only take your mobile phone with you and wait for Neo's call!
On an uncertain day, the same uncertain person buys an uncertain ticket to go to an uncertain place.
It seems that everywhere you can choose your own life.
