Yiqiu feels that this is a deep house-level animation, that is, a work in which form is more important than content and interpretation is more important than the original text. I don't know if it can be called "hard science fiction", but it has an inexplicable literary style. As for the narrative of the stream of consciousness, the world composition of the technological stream, and the symbols and intentions, all I can say is that, like all Joyce or Faulkner works of that kind—perhaps this is too much to say .
Let's talk about "feelings".

First, "memory is just a record. If there is no record, it means that things never happened. This means that the important basis for human identification of the world - memory itself is actually not real! Because it can be erased. Of course, it can also be written. So what is the ultimate truth!?" (Yingri Zhengmei)
- the authenticity of memory. "If we live in a dream that will never wake up, how can we distinguish between dreams and reality?"
Second, Lingyin found that she could rewrite the memories of others and even the whole world at will, because people in this world have never From ancient times to the present, they have been connected with each other in various ways, and the system that maintains this connection is called "collective consciousness".
- The value of human experience and collective memory as a kind of tradition.
Third, "Lingyin looked at Ellis who was unconscious in her arms, and finally understood: for ordinary people, some things do not need to be known, the ultimate truth of reality, for their lives, In fact, it doesn't make any sense at all! She finally understood that people like her don't really need to exist in this world! That's why Sifang Tian Qiansa committed suicide. Or Sifang Tian Qiansa didn't commit suicide at all, but Cleaned the system and detached myself from this world."
—There is no truth in life that must be known, and God will no longer have to perform miracles. So God is gone, because there is no meaning to exist here, because God is no longer real, and there is nothing necessarily real anymore. The vocation of seeking truth, can only the awakened person be able to bear it...
Fourth, "After knowing this, Lingyin painfully "restarted the system". The world started anew from the very first morning. But Lingyin suddenly found out that no one remembers her in this world that started anew, this world where memory started to record from a new time. But only under such circumstances did Lingyin really see the other self, the one who has always been The "self" that exists in the legend but has never met. "She" said to Lingyin: In fact, Lingyin does not exist anywhere, and Lingyin can only watch! Lingyin is confused again, she thought she found her She knew the truth, but she was just wandering on the edge of the truth. She said angrily: Lingyin is the only one, I am me, you are not me! So that Lingyin suddenly disappeared. The whole world also disappeared, The original question remains unanswered: Who am I, what kind of existence am I, what am I? In desperation, she sees her father, who sits on opposite sides of a table. Speaking of: Isn't all this what you want and want? Isn't all this what Lingyin wants? Lingyin burst into tears."
- Self-identity. Are the seven-year-old you and the twenty-seven-year-old you the same you? No, are you the same today as you were yesterday? If yesterday's you stood in front of today's you and told you "I am you", would you affirm it? But if it is denied, where is my yesterday of today?
Fifth, the continuity of evolution. Is the Internet, wierd, the next evolutionary form of mankind? This highly cohesive future is the end of humanity's completion! ? ——Global Brain
