Now it seems that the prophecy of the film has come true.

The film cost very little. So, it's a solid sci-fi movie. And with the mathematical explanation of "The Da Vinci Code". Can mathematics explain everything? This is the ultimate dream of a scientist.
As far as movies go, that's not bad for 1998, but if you look at Star Trek Voyager in 1998, this low-budget movie can't compare to it. Finally, the Scientology overtones at the end of the movie. Scientology has always believed that humans are controlled by something inexplicable - aliens, governments, or extremist groups. This makes it frustrating to watch. Moreover, the deliberate and mysterious rendering of oriental culture is also very low-level. The scene moves between Chinatown, Go and Tai Chi. But still made the mistake of not distinguishing between China and Japan.
Finally, the practice of stabbing myself with a drill now looks boring. And at the time, it was a cliché. "Alien" and many other alienated films do just that.
As far as the Wall Street prediction of the movie itself is concerned, it was fulfilled 10 years later in 2008, and then again this year: 40% of Wall Street's operations are handled by computers. As a result, in these two "Black Thursdays", The computers on Wall Street made a command at the same time, causing the big names to crash in seconds. The reason is that everyone uses the same algorithm to short-sell a certain function, and it is on the eve of the market closure, which makes the exchange out of control.
Now the US government proposes to strictly prohibit millisecond trading (that is, buying and selling in a few milliseconds)

  • Maximillian Cohen: 11:15, restate my assumptions: 1. Mathematics is the language of nature. 2. Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. 3. If you graph these numbers, patterns emerge. Therefore: There are patterns everywhere in nature.

  • Maximillian Cohen: Restate my assumptions: One, Mathematics is the language of nature. Two, Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. Three: If you graph the numbers of any system, patterns emerge. Therefore, there are patterns everywhere in nature. Evidence: The cycling of disease epidemics;the wax and wane of caribou populations; sun spot cycles; the rise and fall of the Nile. So, what about the stock market? The universe of numbers that represents the global economy. Millions of hands at work, billions of minds. A vast network, screaming with life. An organism. A natural organism. My hypothesis: Within the stock market, there is a pattern as well... Right in front of me... hiding behind the numbers. Always has been.
