I turned on the computer and selected Teacher Hao Teng’s album.
The movies that were all the rage back then were "Flying Life", "Crazy Aliens", "Walking on the Moon"... are now old movies made more than 20 years ago.
Even after high-definition remake, it still feels like watching Uncle Motoyama’s 90s comedy movie in 2018, full of sense of the times...
As one of the few entertainment items, I prepared a peanut and melon seed drink and watched "Walking Alone on the Moon" for the 62nd time.
Looking at the male pig's feet on the screen, my mind went back to that day of visit...
Teacher Hao Teng’s voice and smile seem to still be vivid in my mind, as if it was yesterday...
Others may be looking at feelings, but I feel like I am looking at history.
A piece of history that cannot be returned...
Take a sip of beer... while laughing at the protagonist in the movie, and at the same time laughing at yourself in reality...
They are obviously ordinary people, naive, cowardly, ordinary...
They are not heroes, it’s just that their troubled fate has forced them to become warriors who charge into battle.
They say that behind every hero there is a tragedy...
I am quite special, I have many secrets...
But even though I knew it would be a tragedy, it was just like the male pig's feet in the movie.
These heroes in history have never wavered in the face of the right choice. Our core values...glory, courage and commitment flow in their blood.
At least that's what I said to myself at the moment I boarded the Shenzhou 56 manned spacecraft...
I thought I was luckier than Mr. Hao Teng because there was no bloody communication system failure.
With advanced VR technology, even though we are 380,000 kilometers apart, our home star and I are still very close to each other.
I am never alone!
However, what no one expected was that less than a year after arriving at the lunar base, the earth's electromagnetic environment suddenly began to become chaotic.
Yes, it's very bullshit, but I lost contact...
…
Like many times in life, on the first "that day", I began to seriously think about which route I should take in this life.
The "three wars" were brutal and the wise did not win.
"Pacific Rim" is really a tough game, and the outcome is unpredictable.
The most critical issue... is the so-called "seed" in Chaoshu's mouth...
It can sound waves that kill people invisible, and it can impact and trigger a global tsunami. They are all large-scale AOE attacks, and they seem to have hidden "special functions" that are unknown to everyone?
This "seed" always gives me a sense of danger like a thorn in my back.
I realized that if we don't find a way to solve the problem of "Pluto", the earth may never have peace!
So I decided to implement the strategy of "loose internally and tighten externally" - appeasement and compromise internally, and CNMD externally!
In the name of "Open Source Emperor Mengchangjun", I staked all my national reputation and donated the "Space-Based Missile Defense System" I just obtained to the Space Administration through the Second Research Institute of Huahang Science and Industry for free, and proposed my own proposal.
Require……
…
In 2018, the Chinese Space Administration CNSA proposed the "Moon Shield Project".
The earth is shrouded in a thick atmosphere, the atmospheric ionosphere, and the electromagnetic interference generated by human daily life will have a great impact on the observations of radio telescopes.
The area behind the moon is a rare "quiet" place.
If the moon is used as a "shield", it can not only block various radio signal interference from the earth, but also detect electromagnetic signals that cannot be distinguished on the ground and in low-Earth orbit.
This can provide important observational data for in-depth study of the origin of stars and the evolution of galaxies, and can provide effective information for scientists to peer into the "dark ages" of the universe and its evolution toward the "dawn age"...
Based on such external publicity.
CNSA successively launched the lunar "Queqiao" relay satellite and the Chang'e-4 lunar probe, achieving mankind's first soft landing and patrol survey on the back of the moon.
Within five years, a total of 10 satellites were launched to the moon, forming a satellite formation with "Queqiao" as the main star and the rest as auxiliary stars.
These satellites fly around the moon in corresponding arrays, provide signal relay services for the entire moon, and undertake certain cosmic observation tasks.
On the Space Day in April 2022, CNSA also announced that it will start to establish the near-Earth asteroid defense system "CPDS" (Planet Defense Systems) to jointly respond to the threat of near-Earth asteroid impacts and contribute to the protection of the earth and human safety.
In 2030, five years earlier than our predecessors, we discovered the exocomet named "Pluto" coming from the direction of Pluto...
In the Near-Earth Object Telescope of the Purple Mountain Observatory in Xuyi, I witnessed the blurry image of this celestial body with my own eyes for the first time.
The mood is somewhat heavy.
In order to paralyze the enemy, I hid the biochip technology, and everything on earth seemed to be back to where it started...
Many people died because of this.
Even though I have tried my best to reduce the losses... However, that X, as small as dust, is still like the wave of history, profoundly changing human survival and social interaction...
But at least, the world will still move towards 2043 peacefully...
I convinced myself so.
At the beginning of my life, I chose to return to the "Madman's Doomsday" route to buy us time to accumulate strength.
At least compared to the pain caused by war, such a world may be more in line with most people's definition of "happiness", just like the Eldians living within the giant wall...
Mr. Black Cat failed another mission and disappeared from the world!
The calm waves on the sea cannot hide the undercurrents under the sea.
The truth of the world will not be eliminated by a mere wall.
When the vast majority of people are addicted to this false peace, only those who are not willing to be at the mercy of fate choose to walk out of this wall...
…
In 2033, the "Moon Base" plan cooperated by Baiyeji Company and CNSA was officially launched.
Baiyeji Company is responsible for providing funding and technical support, and CNSA is responsible for the remaining software and hardware supporting facilities.
The project plans to take ten years to complete the construction of the "lunar base" located on the far side of the moon in 2043, and officially put it into trial operation.
The whole world is exclaiming at China's speed and hyping up the "battle for the moon" to begin ahead of schedule.
Every step you take counts in the end and becomes part of the key to opening the door to a new world!
Over the years, huge human and material costs were spent, and the moon base gradually took shape, and I also filled almost all of my wealth into this bottomless pit.
In 2035, in my dual capacity of "investor" and "volunteer", I participated in the astronaut selection process.
After 8 years of overclocking my brain to study, with S+ scores in all subjects, I became the first astronaut in the "Moon Base" project...
In 2040, the astronomical telescope and optical positioning system on the lunar base locked the "Pluto" that had entered the orbit of Jupiter.
Blocked by various star rings, meteorite belts, dust, and solar wind, "Pluto" seems to be slowing down...
In 2041, the "Qiuzhen" scientific research probe independently launched by Baiyeji Company left the orbit of the earth and the moon and rushed towards the outer solar system.
In its external publicity, its exploration target is the RJ4182 exoplanet meteorite, and its mission is to conduct scientific research, exploration and sampling.
But only he knows that its true target is actually the "Pluto" that coincides with the orbit of the RJ4182 exoplanet meteorite...
In early 2043, the Shenzhou 56 manned spacecraft was launched.
After the intense pushing sensation that caused adrenaline to soar, I felt the gravity on my body slowly disappear, and the blue planet gradually faded away...
Soon after, the spacecraft landed smoothly at the lunar base landing site, perfectly completing the first two steps of the three-step "circling back"...
As for the third one...
I don't know if I still have a chance...
Due to the current financial and technical limitations, the survival supplies in the base can only last for one year at most without external supplements.
The plan was revised, and the first batch of astronauts was reduced from the original plan of 3 to 1.
This time has been extended to 3 years...
As the base door opened, the newly completed lunar base welcomed its first, perhaps only, visitor...
…
The perfect satellite communication system allows me to carry out follow-up plans through Zero Continuation even if I am on the moon...
Almost at the same time I arrived at the moon.
The Chao family was raided by the "Demon Hunting Team"!
"When we went in, Chao's family had already fallen to the ground. Except for the body of a pet dog, no one was alive..."
After hearing Chu Tian's report, I felt helpless.
Perhaps they had already gotten wind of it, or perhaps the action caused too much noise. The other party obviously knew that the state machine could not resist, and simply cut off its tail to survive.
It's a pity that I didn't even give you time to talk trash... I still wanted to try to surrender...
Although I am on the moon, I can try to tell the other party the allusion of Comrade Guan Yu "who is in Cao's camp and his heart is in Han"?
But...there's a dog missing?
emm…
…
In January 2043, the once short-lived "Open Source Emperor Mengchangjun" appeared again!
"Death Melody" created the first madman. As expected, the truth about X triggered a global panic index to soar.
The Nazdak Index has witnessed history many times again...
In the same month, the "Qiuzhen" scientific research probe suddenly changed its orbit and approached "Pluto" at a close distance. The shortest distance between the two sides was only a few hundred kilometers.
And then...it went off the rails!
In February 2043, all the information about the Night Demons, the evidence of Pluto's orbit change, and the opponent's "Madman Doomsday" plan and "Pacific Rim Plan" made the noisy world seem to have pressed the pause button for a moment.
All humans were in shock.
China quickly made an emergency response plan. While developing and manufacturing vaccines, it also fully liberated productivity and devoted all resources to crisis response.
Industrial behemoths across the country began to roar, and shelter buildings with sound isolation functions were built day and night.
Ecological breeding farms and ecological cruise ships have also been requisitioned in large numbers and have become emergency shelters in the plan.
All arsenals began to operate at full capacity in three shifts, manufacturing a large number of drones, tanks, cannons... and missiles regardless of cost!
The potential of the world's largest industrial country has been completely squeezed out for the nine fully intelligent super factories prepared for today.
Every day, thousands of robots are manufactured from the assembly line...
However, until now, there are still a lot of discordant voices around the world, using various conspiracy theories and arms races to accuse countries that are fully preparing for war.
It wasn't until the missiles launched by China's "asteroid defense system" were evaded one by one by "Pluto" that more and more countries truly began to panic.
However, their industrial strength is simply not enough to make complete preparations in such a short period of time.
Chaos ensued.
The rise of various doomsday sects, robberies, explosions, turmoil...
However, to me, 380,000 kilometers away, these are just a few fireworks at the end of an era...
…
As Pluto gets closer, the detection system on the far side of the moon has been able to capture clearer images.
This 550-meter-diameter, roughly spindle-shaped, dark, bumpy alien planet has nothing special about its appearance, not even any conspicuous power system.
The light and heat generated by friction with the solar wind blocks in-depth observations by various detection equipment.
Due to the rules of peacetime, the moon base is not equipped with any weapons.
I could only watch it, passing over my head, heading towards the earth...
Watching fireworks on the moon, maybe I am the only one in all mankind who has this privilege.
In low-Earth orbit, all missiles from all countries around the world were connected to China's "space-based missile defense system" and launched toward "Pluto" with intensive bombing without blind spots. The gorgeous explosions even lit up the night sky of the moon.
High-explosive bombs, armor-piercing bombs, chemical missiles...even microwave weapons, laser weapons, all human weapons that could be put to use were brought out.
Under the extremely dense number, a large-yield nuclear bomb finally brought the "Pluto" that could not be avoided into the explosion range!
However, what is despairing is...the opponent emerged from the huge fire ball and was still unscathed...
Under the opponent's extreme hypersonic speed, the aftermath of the explosion would hardly cause much damage.
To put it simply...don't break the defense!
In July 2043, Pluto broke through all human anti-aircraft firepower, stirred up a death melody... and plunged into the Pacific Ocean!
War... broke out!
…
Seen from the moon, the center of the blue planet seems to have been hit by a stone, and the tsunami caused by it began to slowly spread towards the entire planet... It was spectacular!
Perhaps due to adequate preparations, humans have retained most of their vitality.
Every day, the moon can receive footage of the battle between the Earth's army and the behemoths.
Although it was tragic, the fight was evenly matched.
This gave me an indescribable hope...
However, things took a turn for the worse half a year after the war broke out!
Because the earth's magnetic field... suddenly became chaotic!
The chaotic magnetic field has made the entire human camp's advanced weapon systems blind and deaf.
It even interrupted communications, causing all parts of the world to fall into a desperate situation of fighting on their own...
This sudden change hit the weak point of mankind, almost wiping out more than half of mankind's combat effectiveness!
My heart sank to the bottom as the communication became increasingly unstable...
Sure enough...there's something weird about that so-called "seed"!
"The situation is extremely bad and we can no longer see hope. Even so, we will fight to the last man!
Salute to you, witness of time and space!
May the hero be immortal!"
Amid the cluttered electronic noise, the field commander Chu Nan on the other side of the video saluted me.
In January 2044, my communication with the earth was finally completely interrupted.
Another half year passed, and the flames of war gradually extinguished everywhere on the earth until no trace could be seen anymore.
The entire planet seemed to have died, falling into complete silence...
The silence is despairing...
…
In the remaining two years, except for occasionally going to the other side of the moon to observe the earth, I lived a life like surviving on an island.
Since it is the path you choose, you have to walk it alone...
As perhaps the only surviving human being in the world, there was some despair, but I quickly adjusted my mentality.
Question: If Pluto crashes into the Earth, will the Earth die first or the Moon?
Answer: All must die!
Compared to the humans who died early on the charge, I was actually a little envious.
Question: If mankind were to be destroyed, would it be more miserable to die on the earth or on the moon?
Answer: The one who dies later is more miserable!
When I am the only survivor left in the world.
The brilliance that we once had in our lives, after all, needs to be repaid with loneliness...
But I must taste this loneliness.
Perhaps this seemingly inconspicuous day after day will suddenly make you see the meaning of persistence one day in the future...
You should know that everyone is just grass and trees, but I am the green mountain!
As long as I am alive, the signal... will not be interrupted!
But I still underestimated the devastation of the "little dark room" on the human spirit...
At first, I thought I was very strong.
But after three months, I could no longer stand the silent loneliness and began to let myself go.
I slid across the grass in the largest circular crater and floated on the moon's horizon. I once drove my car and chased the dusk line under the light of thousands of stars.
I also wore a spacesuit and sang "Torture" at a high pitch to the earth...
…
In the movie, Teacher Hao Teng finally dies together with the meteorite fragments that are about to destroy the earth.
I stopped smiling that lasted for 60 minutes and sighed.
It's obviously a tragedy.
I just want to put on a comedy shell and ask Mr. Hao Teng to act...
The contrast is really cute!
Turn off the movie and calmly pick up "Earth Observation Diary" which I spent nearly two years writing day after day.
There is good news and bad news today.
The bad news is that survival supplies are running out.
The good news is that survival supplies have run out...
After putting on my space suit and walking out of the base, I drove the lunar rover and drove all the way to the observation point. After recording the data, I wrote down the final observation record.
"December 26, 2045, the weather was sunny, the average surface temperature was minus 15°...
Whether crustal changes and volcanic activity have been observed? No...
The magnetic field strength dropped by 0.3 percentage points from the previous observation day, the atmospheric escape accelerated, and the autotransmission speed dropped by 9 milliseconds..."
Close the notebook.
When I walked to the largest circular pit on the side, I slowly sat down in front of a black metal monument.
This is the tombstone I set for all mankind when I was idle and bored.
There is a sentence written on it.
Considering the feelings of international friends, Chinese and English...
Leaning on the tombstone of mankind and looking at the blue planet in front of me, I breathed a long sigh of relief, with a relieved smile on my face.
Then slowly, he opened the helmet...
"Chi~"]
…
"Mr. Meng! I have a question I would like to ask."
It was evening in a blink of an eye.
Before leaving, Han Fei suddenly said to Meng Lang with some embarrassment.
"What's the problem?" Meng Lang turned to look at him.
"I have been thinking about whether to write Zhang Chi to death at the end of the movie.
That is, GE or BE, which one to choose?
I personally wanted to choose the latter, so I immediately felt a sense of shortcomings. However, considering that this is a New Year's film, I was afraid that the audience would not buy it by then, so I was a little confused.
You are the prototype of relaxation in my mind, so I want to hear your opinion."
Facing Han Fei's expectant gaze, Meng Lang thought for a moment and smiled with a complicated expression on his face.
"Why does it have to be either/or, choose GE or BE? Wouldn't it be better to leave the audience with an ambiguous suspense and let them make their own judgments?
Zhang Chi can die because what you wrote is a tragedy.
But in the long river of time, is Zhang Chi really dead?"
"Uh...what do you mean?" Han Fei seemed to understand, but was still confused.
"It's better to weaken the ending as much as possible, and then... add an easter egg. It doesn't need to be too many, just leave a message."
"What words?"
Meng Lang looked at the blurry moon shadow in the distance and said with a sigh on his face.
