Chapter 708 'Three-Body 2' starts broadcasting, and the controversy caused by the dark forest
Summer vacation is coming.
"The Three-Body Problem 2" will premiere in the summer.
Due to the broadcast performance of "The Three-Body Problem", it has a very good reputation, with a high score of 8.7 on Douya.com, and it is a rare hard science fiction theme in the field of TV dramas.
It can be said that this drama monopolizes the entire audience of science fiction dramas and has almost no competition.
Even though some film and television companies followed the trend and made science fiction TV series, they basically made no splash.
The subject matter of science fiction is indeed the most difficult subject among many subjects.
In the words of many people in the industry, it is thankless and hard to fool the audience.
You can make money by shooting ancient puppets with your feet, so why waste so many brain cells shooting science fiction?
Therefore, when the news came out that "The Three-Body Problem" is scheduled to be released in the summer, many science fiction fans were excited.
After all, in the entire TV drama industry, there is no second sci-fi drama that can be watched. When the audience has no other choice, they can only pin their hopes on "The Three-Body Problem".
Therefore, "The Three-Body Problem 2" has been on several hot searches as soon as it was released.
In order to continue to increase the popularity.
Zhang Yigao led the creative team to hold an online event "The Three-Body Problem 2 Face to Face" on Wandou Video.
The reason for this activity is mainly because the series "The Three-Body Problem" does have a threshold for viewing.
For non-science fiction fans, it will be difficult to understand some physics knowledge and astronomy knowledge.
Moreover, "Three-Body 2" will introduce several new concepts, which are more difficult to understand.
There is only one week left before the broadcast, and Fang Xing happens to be free, so he also participated in this online "face to face with the creators" event.
The main purpose of this activity is to explain several concepts raised in the play to the audience and help the audience better understand the content of the play.
For science fiction fans, it may not be difficult to understand these concepts, but for audiences who have less exposure to science fiction themes, it is still important to hold this event.
In the first half of the event, the host was responsible for asking questions and the creative team was responsible for answering. The questions asked were all concepts that need to be understood in advance for "Three-Body 2".
These concepts have already been mentioned in the trailer, but only mentioned. The trailer is too long and it is impossible to explain in detail.
Host: "First of all, welcome to our main creative team of "Three-Body 2", director Fang Xing, director Zhang Yigao, and our leading actors, welcome.
"Today's event is a countdown to the launch of "The Three-Body Problem". At the end of the event, we will draw a thousand lucky viewers and give away VIP members of Wandou Video, as well as generous peripherals from the "Three-Body Problem" series.
“Without further ado, let’s get to the point.
"First let's ask producer Fang Xing. You are the producer of "The Three-Body Problem" and you are also filming "The Wandering Earth 2". Are you very busy?"
Fang Xing took the phone and replied: "Fortunately, Yigao is very good, so I mainly just keep my name."
Zhang Yigao quickly picked up the other microphone and said: "Without Fang Xing, there would be no "Three-Body" series. He is the first creator of this series."
Host: "We all know that "The Three-Body Problem" is the second part of the "Three-Body Problem" series, so what is the relationship between the second part and the first part?"
Fang Xing picked up the microphone and replied: "In terms of story line, the story of "Three-Body Problem 2" takes place after "Three-Body Problem", and it is an orthodox sequel."
Host: "Then the protagonists of "Three-Body 2" will also appear in "Three-Body 2", right?"
Fang Xing: "It will appear, but "Three-Body 2" will have a new protagonist."
Host: "So who is the male protagonist of "The Three-Body Problem"?"
Fang Xing gestured to Zhang Yi next to him and said, "Here he is."
The host turned the topic to Zhang Yi: "Let's ask Zhang Yi, which role do you play in the play?"
Zhang Yi took the microphone and replied: "The role he plays is 'Logic'."
Host: "What kind of role is this?"
Zhang Yi organized his words before answering: "In the early days, I was a playboy. Later, I heard from Ye Wenjie her original idea of the law of the dark forest. Later, I followed Ye Wenjie's suggestion and founded the 'Cosmic Sociology'."
Moderator: “We heard a new concept ‘cosmic sociology’. What kind of discipline is this?”
Fang Xing took the topic and replied: "This subject does not exist in reality for the time being. It is a science fiction concept.
"To put it simply, sociology is a subject that studies the relationship between people, so cosmic sociology is a subject that studies the relationship between human civilization and extraterrestrial civilization.
“Only by studying aliens clearly can we deal with aliens in the correct way.
"The sociology of the universe is a discipline established for such a purpose and is part of science fiction works."
Host: "Thank you, Director Fang, for your explanation, which made me understand a lot. I also saw a term in the play called 'wall-facer'. What is this?"
Fang Xing thought for a moment and replied: "To explain the 'Wall Facer', we need to first explain the communication method of Trisolarans."
Moderator: "Okay, so how do Trisolarans communicate?"
Fang Xing: "Communication method is a means of exchanging information between living things. For example, humans use hearing and vision for daily communication, which correspond to sound and light respectively.
"However, the biological structure of Trisolarans is very special, and they communicate through electromagnetic waves.
"Using electromagnetic waves to communicate, doesn't it sound very high-end?
"Three-body people communicate through electromagnetic waves emitted by their brains, which leads to a problem. What the Trisolaran people think in their minds is equivalent to what they say.
"Yes, the words 'think' and 'say' in the Trisolaran dictionary mean the same thing.
"What does this mean? It means that the thoughts of Trisolarans are open to the public, which means there is no deception among Trisolaran individuals."
Having said this, many people at the scene immediately listened with bated breath.
Because this science fiction idea is so interesting.
How wonderful would be the daily life of a creature that doesn't deceive and says whatever it thinks?
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! And, from a scientific perspective.
It is possible for Trisolarans to have this kind of communication method.
Electromagnetic waves are like wireless communications used by humans. The speed of transmitting information is much faster than speaking, so "thinking" can indeed be equal to "speaking".
Fang Xing continued: "Actually, in "Three-Body 1", the characteristics of the Three-Body civilization were introduced through the Three-Body game.
"In the Three-Body Game, Qin Shihuang used soldiers to form a huge array and form a computer.
"In fact, that is a simplified version of the Trisolaran communication method.
"Take wireless communication as an example. In fact, radio signals are binary, and there are only two transmitted signals, 0 and 1.
“By combining two signals into different pieces of information, a huge amount of information can be transmitted.
"After we understand the concept that Trisolarans communicate through electromagnetic waves, we can begin to explain the 'Wall Facer'."
The host responded: "It's really interesting. It turns out that Trisolarans say whatever they think. In this case, there is indeed no deception. So what does this have to do with the 'Wall Facer'?"
Fang Xing: "The word wall-facer comes from the 'Wall-Facing Project'. In "Three-Body 1", we already know that the super-intelligent computer "Sophon" created by the Trisolaran civilization can know all the behaviors of people on earth.
"So every move of human beings on the earth is monitored by the Trisolaran civilization.
"However, there is one thing that Trisolaran civilization cannot monitor, and that is the thoughts in human heads.
"For the Trisolaran civilization, the word 'deception' does not exist in their dictionary, but it does in the human dictionary.
"The thoughts of Trisolaran individuals are open to the public, but humans are not.
“The human heart is unpredictable, this old saying is very appropriate here.
"Therefore, if you want to find a way to break the situation, you must find a way to break the situation in a place where the Trisolaran civilization cannot monitor it, that is, in human thoughts.
"Of course, not everyone's thoughts are useful. After all, knowledge cannot reach that level, and it is useless no matter how hidden your thoughts are.
"Therefore, humans launched the Wall Facer Project, selecting some suitable people as 'Wall Facers', and using the opacity of their thoughts to hide their true strategic intentions against the Trisolaran World.
"The 'Wallfacers' are allowed to mobilize all resources of human civilization without explanation.
"Yes, Wallfacer can use any resource and doesn't need to explain why to anyone.
"Because once the reason is explained, the Trisolaran civilization will know it.
"This is the key to the success of the 'Wall Face Project'. The 'Wall Facer' is responsible for executing the plan against the Trisolaran civilization, and this plan does not need to be told to anyone. Only the 'Wall Facer' knows it.
"Humanity has selected four wall-facers, and our male protagonist 'Luo Ji' is one of them."
After listening, the host slowly exhaled: "It's a long explanation, but I understand it all. The concept is very strange, but it also makes people feel very reasonable. There is also a question, how many people are facing the wall in the play?
By'?"
Fang Xing: "With the four wall-facers, in the play, the Trisolaran civilization cannot sit still and wait for death, so it orders the Adventists among humans to destroy the 'wall-facer plan'.
"The plan to destroy the 'Face the Wall Plan' is called the 'Break the Wall Plan'.
“For every ‘wall-facer’, there will be a corresponding ‘wall-breaker’.
"The 'Wall Breakers' are the people selected by the Trisolaran Civilization, with the purpose of ideologically defeating the 'Wall Facers'."
…
This "Three-Body 2" online event was very successful, explaining many key concepts to the audience.
Including wall plan, dark forest, etc.
This event also aroused discussions among many science fiction fans.
[After watching the online event of "The Three-Body Problem", I want to watch it even more, and I really want it to start broadcasting soon.]
[Indeed, just listening to the concept explanation in the second part is exciting enough. This is science fiction! 】
[It’s so powerful, the series “Three-Body Problem” is destined to be recorded in film history.]
[Then here comes the question. The technology of the Trisolaran civilization is so advanced that it can create outrageous things like "sophons". How can humans resist? It feels like there is no resistance at all. Even the "Face the Wall Project" seems to be of no use. ]
In order not to spoil too much of the plot, this online event for "Three-Body 2" only explained the concept without touching too much on the plot.
Therefore, the "Dark Forest" theory was explained in the event, but it did not introduce the means by which "Luo Ji" defeated the Trisolaran civilization.
As far as the information that the audience knows so far, the technological level of the Trisolaran civilization is much more advanced than that of humans, and the two are not opponents of the same magnitude at all.
Moreover, with the existence of "sophons", the technology of human civilization has been blocked by the Trisolaran civilization.
This means that human technology has stagnated and can only wait for the arrival of the Trisolaran civilization and accept colonization.
In this situation, there is no hope for mankind in a head-on war.
In this situation, how can "Luo Ji" as a "wall-facer" face the Trisolaran civilization?
[I really want to know how Luo Ji defeated the Trisolaran Civilization, but Fang Xing didn’t reveal any information. 】
[Is it possible that Luo Ji never defeated the Trisolaran civilization? 】
[Judging from the current information, it seems that human beings can only wait for death. 】
[This appetite is whetted. I feel unhappy but also really want to watch it. It’s so contradictory. 】
[Hurry up and start broadcasting. Can’t I be a VIP? 】
[Someone tell Wandou Video that if it starts broadcasting tomorrow, I will hold the annual meeting directly.]
【I have been driving for two years!】
【I have been driving for three years!】
[Once every three years or twice every three years, is there any increase in price? 】
【I added it, can it be broadcast tomorrow?】
…
After much anticipation, "The Three-Body Problem 2" was finally launched on July 12.
On the day of broadcast, two episodes will be updated for free, and VIP can watch four more levels.
The first day of broadcast.
On the list of TV series online views on the Maoyan APP, "The Three-Body Problem" shot directly to the top, with 120 million views in the first 24 hours, ranking first.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This summer vacation is destined to be the world of "Three-Body 2".
Since its launch, no TV series has dared to face the challenge head-on.
TV series that were originally planned to be aired during the summer season were wisely postponed for half a month to avoid the dominance period of "The Three-Body Problem".
The audience had a lot of curiosity and questions, which were finally answered in the TV series.
There is the most discussion about the "dark forest" theory.
Of course, this is a science fiction concept, a fantasy based on science.
Therefore, there is no opportunity for theoretical practice, at least currently there is no way to prove the authenticity in reality.
Because in reality, humans don’t even know if there are aliens in the universe.
All opinions about aliens are just speculation and cannot be proven.
As for the "dark forest" theory, there is naturally no way to prove it.
Things that cannot be demonstrated may be considered reasonable by some and unreasonable by others.
Therefore, there are the most debates on the Internet about "dark forests".
In the TV series, the "dark forest" theory refers to the fact that the universe is a dark forest, and every civilization is a hunter with a gun, stalking the forest like a ghost.
The hunter gently pushed aside the branches blocking the road, trying his best not to make any sound with his footsteps, and even his breathing had to be careful: he had to be careful, because there might be hunters like them sneaking in the forest.
If he discovers another life, there is only one thing he can do: shoot and kill him.
In this forest, other hunters are a threat and will become a threat. Any life that exposes its position will be quickly wiped out.
Therefore, if any civilization is in a universe with a dark forest environment, if it wants to survive, it must do two things. The first is to hide itself, and the second is to destroy other civilizations.
Because once any civilization experiences a technological explosion, its technological level will advance rapidly and become a threat.
Just like human civilization, most of the five thousand years of history have been in the period of slash-and-burn cultivation.
It has only been more than 200 years since the industrial revolution to modern times, and human science and technology has developed to the level of moon landing. This is the big explosion of science and technology.
On the Internet, some viewers support the dark forest theory, while others oppose it:
[I think the dark forest is unreasonable, and aliens are not necessarily bad. Can’t they just get along with each other in a friendly way? 】
[Those who think aliens can get along well with each other will definitely think of aliens as being similar to humans, right?]
[If an alien looks like a two-meter-long cockroach, would you like to ask everyone here whether you want to get along with this alien? 】
[To be more direct, if one day cockroaches develop intelligence and become an intelligent civilization, will humans be able to live in harmony with cockroaches? 】
[Okay, I jumped back, please bring my insecticide. 】
