On this day last year, on August 9, 2019, a science fiction movie was released in China!
"Shanghai Fortress"
And the film set off a huge entertainment criticism in the country.
The domestic sci-fi movie, which is claimed to cost 300 million to the outside world, was expected by the audience for 13 years of blockbuster, and finally ended with a dismal box office data of 130 million!
This should be the film with the most loss and investment in the film market, no one!
As the male protagonist at the time, Lu Han, he was once scolded by the audience.
From clothing to hairstyle to acting, Lu Han who appeared in the movie "Shanghai Fortress" seems to be a superfluous existence!
Perhaps the movie "The Wandering Earth" has raised the status of domestic science fiction to a height that does not belong to it.
The most commented sentence in the major entertainment headlines: "The movie "The Wandering Earth" opened the door to Chinese science fiction "!
As a result, the audience's expectations for the "science fiction" movie "Shanghai Fortress" are also extremely high.
How high is the expectation, how big is the despair!
The movie "Shanghai Fortress", which uses "science fiction" as its promotional selling point, did not expect it to be just a love movie in a layer of "sheepskin".
And the "ego-style" love values cannot meet the growing cultural needs of the audience.
It cannot be compared with such factors as patriotism, collectivism, and internationalism.
Coupled with the old-fashioned plot of alien species invading the earth and lack of new themes, the audience will definitely not buy it!
So, no matter whether this movie is played by Lu Han or not, it is destined to end in "failure"!
However, a sci-fi romance film "Top Secret Archives" was released in the UK this year, which is a perfect example of "Shanghai Fortress"!
Sci-fi, love and brain-burning plot, full of content elements, firmly attract the audience's attention and whet the appetite!
For "technology", most people have emotional factors that cannot be separated, especially boys, who have an innate love!
Several sets of armors developed by Tony in the Marvel movie "Iron Man" are full of technology and heavy metal texture, which is one of the reasons why audiences love Iron Man.
And the male protagonist of the movie "Top Secret Files", George, is a genius technology master.
In an environment completely isolated from the outside world, George made three intelligent robots, which were J1, J2, and J3.
But unlike ordinary intelligent robots, the robots made by George have human emotions!
J1's mind is only about 5 or 6 years old, still in the childhood stage.
J1 is clumsy in action, slow in thinking, and still lacks the maintenance of external feelings and human emotions.
But J1 also has his favorite thing to do, watching cartoons.
J2's mind is about 15, 6 years old, at the teenage level, J2 can help George with most of the work.
J3's mind has reached the level of adults around 30 years old, and unlike J1 and J2, J3's appearance is closer to humans.
J3 is also the one that George considers the most successful.
The three intelligent robots have three different stages of human intelligence and emotion. I thought that George would coexist peacefully with the three robots, but I didn't expect that George was hiding an unspeakable secret.
Resurrection of his dead wife is George's ultimate goal!
In a car accident, George survived, but his pregnant wife, who was sitting in the co-pilot, tragically died.
In order to resurrect his deceased wife, George recorded a series of data on his deceased wife's voice, tone, habits, and a series of data, and developed a file chip.
And this top-secret file carries the emotions of George's wife.
Hidden behind the archives is George's love and desire!
When robots have human emotions, then ethics will change and social order will be chaotic!
The ending of the three intelligent robots must also end in tragedy!
Among them, J2's suicide is the most tragic one!
For J2, George is an indispensable partner, even a presence that can be relied on like a father.
Most of George's large and small scientific research results were directly participated by J2.
But since J3 was manufactured, George's center of gravity has changed, and the emphasis on J2 and J1 has gradually faded.
Once J2 asked George bluntly, " Why don't you let me go to your studio to help you recently? "
" I thought you would find work boring ," George replied .
J2's tone revealed disappointment " I thought we were a team. "
For George, J2's existence is nothing but a machine tool to assist him, and the deadliest mistake he made was not treating the robot as a "human".
While explaining to J2 that " you are unique ", he turned his head and removed J2's legs and placed them on J3's body.
The essence of "scumbag" is vividly reflected!
When J2's legs were removed, J2 said to George " I don't feel good about myself ".
After George checked, he said, " I didn't find any damage ."
J2: " That doesn't mean I'm fine ".
J2 is emotional, when it sees J3 dancing with George, it will be jealous; when it sees sister J1, it will feel distressed.
J2 felt despair in George.
When an individual is unable to exert his own value, then it is also the time when he has the idea of suicide.
J2 walked into the lake step by step, leaving behind a lonely and lonely back, even if J2 is just an intelligent robot, it will make the audience feel distressed!
J2's suicide can't cause George's heartache!
George's purpose is very simple, to create a " perfect body " that carries the will of his deceased wife.
For this reason, the births of J1, J2, and J3 are just substitutes for George's resurrection of his wife, rather than exist as independent individuals.
We can't help but reflect on " Intelligent robots may just be cold machines made of scrap metal, but when intelligent robots are endowed with human emotions, shouldn't they be treated as real "humans"? "
In the future era, intelligent robots will replace human beings to complete most of the daily work and become the most important partners, friends, and even family members of human beings!
In On the Origin of Species, Darwin wrote this
" Thinking that life and some of its faculties were originally infused into a few types or one type by the "Creator," and that while the planet continued to move according to the established laws of gravitation, the most beautiful and strange types, from thus The simple beginning, was, was and is evolving; the view is magnificent. "
George is the creator and destroyer at the same time.
The tragic fate of J1, J2, and J3 reflects George's indifference to life!
But the creation of every species should not be easily deprived of life, and intelligent robots endowed with human emotions also have the right to survive!
It is worth mentioning that the reversal at the end of the film is also wonderful, so I won't reveal too much here!
"Top Secret Archives" is a film that integrates science fiction, love, adventure and other themes, which is exactly the same as the film "Shanghai Fortress".
Lu Han can act and shoot like a script of the "Top Secret File" type, and he won't be so miserable by his mother, maybe he has won a long time ago!
