I want to put aside the grand theme of the film and consider purely from the point of view of how to survive, what will happen if the environment is set in China and around us?
After people are trapped in the market and realize the cruelty of the external environment. The most ideal situation I can think of is:
First, the Communist Party members will stand up immediately and form a temporary party committee as the leading body. Explain the situation to everyone, and then organize everyone to use collective strength to survive. Specifically, everyone can be divided into several groups: young and middle-aged men make up the defense team, women make up the logistics team, the elderly and children make up the support team, and individual agile people make up the investigation team. Individuals who are not firm in their will, or who have other opinions, are allowed to leave on their own.
Secondly, quickly check the defense loopholes around the supermarket, strengthen defense measures, and implement a shift system on duty.
Third, inventory all food, medicine, tools, weapons, fuel, batteries, etc. in the supermarket and manage them centrally. Make sure the water supply is stable. Reserve some drinking water as needed to prevent the water from being cut off again after a power outage. Implement the food ration system and calculate the longest time that can last for reference when making decisions.
Fourth, develop, design, and brainstorm more detailed defense plans. Think clearly about each step and make various plans. For example, pre-design a plan for dealing with some weak defense links that are broken. Once an alarm occurs, how to let everyone know. How to build a relatively closed space like an air-raid shelter, so that the elderly, children and non-combatants can temporarily hide.
Fifth, dispatch a two-person reconnaissance team to find out the surrounding situation. Such as vehicle distribution, other facilities such as the pharmacy next door. The attack should be gradual and not greedy for perfection. Allocate the best equipment to the scouting team, such as helmets, lights, pistols, etc. According to the investigation situation, adjust the defensive measures.
Sixth, while constantly going out for investigation, strengthen internal education management. The first is to inspire everyone's confidence to overcome difficulties by giving speeches and singing collectively. The second is to strengthen training and exercises. Learn how to master various weapons, axes, sprays and more. Simulate various situations that may occur and troubleshoot vulnerabilities.
Seventh, if the food is about to run out, and there is no way to supply the surrounding buildings, a rescue plan should be considered. First of all, the reconnaissance team can be allowed to drive in a larger area to conduct reconnaissance, try to get in touch with other people, and explore the surrounding area to find new shelters, such as a larger supermarket. If you find a similar supermarket or solid building, you can send an advance team to arm, confirm safety, and establish a preliminary base. Then send one person back to the old supermarket to agree on the details of the pick-up and drop-off location, order, etc., and then send a large group of people to take a ride to the new supermarket.
Eighth, I believe that in this repeated migration process, this group of people can persist for a long time, and eventually they can connect with more other people. There may be casualties in the middle, but as long as sufficient investigation and planning are done, the entire army can be avoided.
I have written so much, and what I want to express most is that the reason why man is different from animals is that he has ideas and can understand the world through practice. Second, man is social, the sum of social relations. Humans can generate enormous collective power through division of labor and cooperation.
In the face of great disasters, compared with Westerners who advocate individualism, Eastern nations with a spirit of collectivism are more likely to survive. Individual values need to be respected, and the power of the collective cannot be underestimated.
