The beginning of the film reflects the state of communication at the time, with rotary telephones and the need for busy operators. (The overall feeling is that the film is an interlude, and the time is staggered.) In 1951, Turing's home was burglarized and the neighbors called the police, but the police were chased away by Turing, who mentioned cyanide when the police came to investigate. (Does this correspond to his suicide later in life?) But curiosity killed the cat, and one detective persevered to find out. (I hated this police detective when I first saw it. If this guy hadn’t done so much, maybe Turing wouldn’t have died prematurely. Maybe we will have better breakthroughs in the development of computer technology today, and artificial intelligence will have greater progress. Later, I thought that this was just an assumption and had no basis. Besides, as a police detective, it is a noble professional ethic to get to the bottom of things, and there is nothing to blame.) In 1939, Britain and Germany were at war, and the newsboys at the railway station were shouting the news. Sell newspapers. (Suddenly I thought that the way our country's newsboys sell newspapers is not like the UK? Now there are still some people at the bus station who sell newspapers and pamphlets at the passenger's seat before the bus departs, and often carry out false propaganda. Earth-shattering news, and after I bought it, I found that there was no such news in the newspaper at all. With the popularity of smartphones, the business of newspapers is not very good even on long-distance buses. Now our daily necessities And many technologies are pioneered by the West, so our way of life must actually adapt to these products and technologies, then we have actually been Westernized, how can the traditional culture be inherited? I hope it can be inherited and carried forward.) 27-year-old photo Ling came to the park to meet with the old military leaders. The old leaders praised Turing as a mathematical genius. At the age of 23, he published a paper that he could not understand the title of. At the age of 24, he became a researcher in Cambridge, but Turing himself did not agree with this evaluation. Invented the binomial theorem at the age of 22, and Einstein wrote four papers that were enough to change the world. (What are most of us doing in our 20s, huh, huh) It was not a pleasant meeting, the old leader was about to chase away guests, but Turing had an insight into the purpose of the military looking for him, which was to decipher the German Enigma code Machine, for Turing, is Scrabble, that is, guessing word puzzles. Having said that, the Enigma cipher machine has 159 trillion possibilities, and the settings are changed once a day. If you want to crack all of them, it will take 10 people per minute and 20 million years to decipher. In order to ensure that the Allies are attacking To understand the German plan before launching, to reduce the time to crack a ciphertext in 20 minutes, this is an almost impossible task.
When the team was working, Turing's personality and thinking were different, so he couldn't integrate with the team. He ran every day, designed machines, and put a wall full of paper (the actual situation is said to be not the case, but the movie took it for granted. People with high IQ must have low EQ.) The team complained about him, and the old leaders didn't like him either. Turing asked the old leaders to propose a solution: apply for a fund of 100,000 pounds to design a machine. Ingmar is a precision machine. It is unrealistic to try to beat people with people, but machines can be used to beat machines. The old leader disagreed and resolutely refused, so Turing wrote to Churchill, got the support of the Prime Minister and became the head of the team, and the new officer fired two linguists who he thought were useless. (It’s great to go to the top and insist on being yourself, but the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. The consequences of offending the direct superior are not good at all times, at home and abroad, and the latter old leader has hindered Turing many times.) When Ling was studying, Turing sorted the carrot slices and peas on the plate during the school meal. He was teased by his classmates and even pinned him under the podium. Fortunately, he was encouraged by his best and only friend Christopher: Sometimes it's people who don't expect people to do things people don't dare to expect. (This sentence appears many times in the film, it is very flavorful, and the interpretation of violence also appears many times.) The team complained that there were not enough people, and Turing thought of putting the word puzzle game in the newspaper to select talents: if you can Solve anagrams in ten minutes, call, and an exciting job is waiting for you. (In "Internet Age", it was mentioned that Google once posted high-number questions on roadside billboards and then recruited them step by step. Was this inspired by Turing?) Many applicants came to the registration office to take the test, requiring them to take the test within 6 minutes. To solve the anagram, Turing himself took 8 minutes, and the heroine Clark took the lead in completing it in 5 minutes and 34 seconds. In 1940, Turing and Clark discussed digital computers and electronic brains, and Clark persuaded Turing to develop good interpersonal relationships with team members. In 1941, with the joint efforts of the team, Turing's machine, Christopher (named for the machine in honor of a deceased friend), calculated the setting of Engmar, that is, the possibility of calculating the 159 trillion, However, the settings of the German army were changed every day, and the machine ran for a long time without results. The old leaders couldn’t help but want to expel Turing. The team members actively supported Turing and only won a month’s time. Turing was overjoyed when he flirted with another female colleague in the tavern. Christopher didn’t have to calculate the settings used at all. He only needed to calculate the fixed settings he already knew, which greatly reduced the amount of calculation. Two years of hard work were successful. This sentence in the film is very classic: love Love made Germany lose the war. (Turing's brain is thinking about this machine every day, so it seems that the meaningless chat of female colleagues gave Turing the aura of thinking. There are many similar cases in the history of science.) In order to paralyze the German army, not to be understood by the German army Enigma has been deciphered, and Turing used mathematical statistics to determine which actions can be avoided and which ones can be kept as they are. The actions that can be avoided and won allow the intelligence services to find reasons to explain the source of the intelligence, as long as the German army does not suspect that it is true. If there is a problem with Ingmar, it is enough to determine the life and death of many people. In the film, it is mentioned that life and death are not in the hands of God, but in the hands of the Turing team. Of course, knowing that casualties can be avoided, but let casualties happen. Painful things. Turing's special work led him to be under surveillance with no privacy at all, so he proposed to break up with Clark, who was about to be engaged, and informed him about his homosexuality. I knew it for a long time and didn't care about it. I persisted until the task was completed. Unfortunately, the two were still separated from each other. (Probably this is a Platonic emotion.) The dialogue between the police detective and Turing in prison is also very interesting. Can a machine think like a human? The way a machine thinks is different from that of a human is alien. What is it if the way of thinking is different, and the famous "Turing Test" is also mentioned. In the judge's trial, Turing received hormone therapy, and Clark's visit failed to comfort his wounded body and mind. A year later, he committed suicide at the age of 42. (Humans seem to be like this. There is always a sense of uncertainty about people or things that are different from themselves, which may lead to fear. Get rid of it quickly. If Turing hadn’t made such a big contribution, or there were no outstanding people in the gay community. , in 2013, will the Queen help Turing reverse the verdict, and will she make a movie to make people face up to and tolerate this group, I don’t know) During the surveillance, there was no privacy at all, so he proposed to break up with Clark, who was about to be engaged, and informed him about his homosexuality. He said ruthless words against his will and angered Clark. Unexpectedly, Clark already knew about it and didn't care about it, and persisted until the mission. It was completed, but unfortunately the two were still separated from each other. (Probably this is a Platonic emotion.)

Finally, a quote from the film: Historians believe that the cracking of the Enigma code shortened World War II by at least two years, saved 14 million lives, and the Turing machine evolved into today's computers.
