About Chaoyue's true identity:
Is Chaoyue a robot?
Before discussing this issue, let's look at the truth a dozen or two decades ago. At that time, due to the excessive behavior of the ethics committee, the young store manager Feng (5 years old at the time) was injured by the police with electric baton (or the robot that was to be banned in order to save the feelings). After Feng was hospitalized, Chaoyue visited her. Later, perhaps out of the same tendency, the two formed a partner after Feng was discharged from the hospital. At the same time, traveling around, setting up a cafe "Eve's Time" where humans and robots can live in harmony and intimacy (intervening with the quarrel between Shizuki and Ashimori, or the question of whether the robot's feelings should be suppressed). The sign at the door of "Eve's Time" is actually the 1138 code set up by Chaoyue: "both robots and people must forget their identities and treat each other equally" (this has had a substantial impact on the robots entering the store, perhaps they have the the ability of the code represented by the text to react).
So we're going to see if Chaoyue is a robot. In fact, before this question, we can ask: Is the store manager Feng a robot? The wind seems to look a little like a robot, especially when it comes to cafes (what could be better than a robot cafe led by a robot lady?). But the answer given here is no. Because the "true news" given by Ash Sen at the end of the film shows that Feng was the victim of the extreme events at that time, and she was only 5 years old at the time, consider Ash Sen's speculation: "If she is still alive now..." We The concept of "growth" is derived. In the play, we don't think that the machine has some kind of "growth" ability, at least not the robots in the play. Therefore, we think that the wind should be human, so that "growth" can make sense, and it is roughly in line with the current age. Another basis is that Feng does not appear to have robot parts or components in the play, which is different from Sammy and the robot elder sister (Sami is the charging part of the abdomen, and the robot elder sister is the damaged leg zero. part). So it's hard to think of Feng as a robot, and we tend to think of her as a human (she does feel like a human, but this may be because she never shows "weakness"). In short, the Lu Sen segment at the end of the film is the decisive point (on the other hand, it is quite natural to imagine a cafe where "humans and robots coexist on an equal footing" led by a human proprietress...because, no matter what kind of The identity as the master represents some kind of bridge, and the possibility of reconciliation, but it will be more bold on the robot side).
So, after answering the question of whether the store manager Feng is a robot, let's take a look at the question of whether Chaoyue is a robot. The reason for this problem is because, as we saw at the end of the film, Chaoyue's hands have been replaced by machinery, and even the distorted voice makes people feel that it is made of machinery. So is Chaoyue really a robot? On this question, first of all, there is actually no conclusive evidence to prove that Chaoyue is a robot: he did not describe himself as a "robot", and no one else ever said that he was a robot; moreover, the important characteristics of the robot did not appear, such as the need for Charging, internal electronic circuit structure, etc. (of course you can say that his manipulator is actually equivalent to the so-called "internal electronic circuit structure", but I can argue that he can also install the manipulator because he lost his hands , his other parts are still flesh . This is all due to insufficient evidence). So, let's just say, let's try to explore: what if Chaoyue was a robot ?
If Chaoyue is a robot, then as Feng said at the end of the credits, "Your children are laughing...", these robots are indeed Chaoyue's child , because he exists as their father or even ancestor , he is A robot that made a robot ! Can be said to be the initiator. In this case, the scenery of the original film will be completely different, because those robots with emotions are made by another robot, and the latter also wrote the 1138 code that can relieve the robot's emotional inhibition! (It's like a miracle that it can write the code that makes the robot have feelings.) But then we have to ask another question, and that is: Who made the tide moon? However, this answer does not have any hints in the play, and it can be said that it cannot be touched outside the film. We can also always find a human who made those robots that made sentient robots. In other words, this miracle must be borne by a human after all.
On the other hand, if Chaoyue is a robot, this might get some weak rebuttal. That's Lu Sen's attitude towards Chaoyue. If Lu Sen knew that Chaoyue was a robot, and it was this sentient robot that made other sentient machines, then Lu Sen's middle position could no longer hold; The special attitude towards Chaoyue is not an obvious attitude towards robots, but more like a natural attitude towards an ordinary human being. So, is it possible that Lu Sen didn't know Chaoyue was a robot? At least, the answer here is that the possibility is very small. Because we can know from the ending song that Chaoyue and Lu Sen should have a face-to-face quarrel over their positions and ideas. In this face-to-face situation, Lu Sen also did not see through Chaoyue's true face as a robot. This possibility is at least relatively small (if it can be seen from the arm and the way of speaking); and Lu Sen also showed a relatively familiar attitude to Chaoyue, which reflects her familiarity with the latter. , combined with what she said before about the way she talked about Chaoyue, which is not unnatural, to some extent, it can be concluded that Chaoyue should not be a robot, but an ordinary human being.
So, let's see what would happen if Chaoyue weren't a robot . If Chaoyue is not a robot, he is the human father of the great robots who made these sentient robots, and he is in a very forward position, because he is trying to promote the equality between robots and human beings, trying hard to want Make robots acceptable to humans. From the dialogue between Feng and him at the end, it can be seen that he actually regards these robots as his own children, and is very sincerely seeking their well-being for them (very moving), Feng is his collaborator, and they use Coffee shops like Eve's Time advance the reconciliation and ultimate harmony between humans and robots. So, if Chaoyue is not a robot, why does he have to assemble a mechanical arm, and what is the matter with his voice? Only a conjecture can be offered here, and that is that, in fact, Chaoyue suffered from a disease and lost his arm (or due to some accident); part. If it is the latter possibility, then he has lived a long time, witnessing the step-by-step development of the robot he created, being rejected by humans, and trying to find some kind of reconciliation, as well as pursuing his own "heart"— - Such an ancestor. No wonder he was moved to tears by the emotion he had experienced so much. There is also a circumstantial evidence. That is, we can infer from the age of Feng, at least a dozen or even more than 20 years have passed. Considering the age of Chaoyue when he visited Feng at that time (the ending song is shown), and he has invented these A robot (at least in his prime), then he is at least in his forties, or even in his fifties or sixties, and it may be excusable for parts of his body to decay. This period of Feng's growth also witnessed the step-by-step implementation of his propositions. Needless to say, the vicissitudes of life. This is circumstantial evidence.
In short, woe, the last dialogue between Feng and Chaoyue, and the warm embrace of him, brought tears to the eyes. And the line "Welcome to Eve's time...I'll have a lot of fun here, but that's another story" makes it hard to say goodbye, Miss Feng, Sammy. Sad, but inexplicably moved by people who tried their best to hold back but were full.
Where will it go. Yet the story does not allow for a goodbye.
