There are actually two versions of the movie's ending that Li Yi saw. One is that the clone submitted evidence and sued the company, but Li Yi didn't like this ending, and also because it was a bit strange.
Now that human cloning technology has matured, would this matter seem strange in the real world?
And it’s not consistent with the tone of the entire movie.
Therefore, Li Yi prefers another version of the story, that is, after returning to Earth on the 6th, he met his daughter and another original "Wu Gang"!
This ending may be somewhat meaningful, but in Li Yi's opinion, it is enough.
Because the issue of whether cloned humans are human beings and whether they have human rights is too big to be answered even if another hundred movies are made, so he feels it is unnecessary.
The movie is over. Some people originally had some doubts about Li Yi shooting the movie in only one month. After all, this is a science fiction movie, but at this moment, they have to sigh, this is really
It’s people who are more irritating than people!
It's obviously just a very simple story, but the result is so unforgettable!
"Bah bang bang!" The movie ended, and everyone in the screening hall applauded.
"As expected of Director Li, this story is really well told!"
"Yeah, I never thought science fiction movies could be made like this!"
"The story is really good. In fact, I was still thinking about how this story would end at first. But after seeing the final ending where clone No. 6 saw his "daughter" and "himself" with his own eyes, I felt that this would be the ending.
It seems to be the best, because the rest cannot be shown in the length of the movie."
Everyone was discussing it in a lively manner.
Someone also raised a question: "Director Li, why is it a three-year contract? Is it because clones can only survive for three years?"
"What do you think?" Li Yi did not answer this question, but asked with a smile.
"Tsk, tsk, this setting is also a big pitfall! I dare say that when the movie is released, this point will definitely be over-interpreted in various ways!" Chen Wen couldn't help but said with a smirk.
This is also true.
Because of this problem, there are many possibilities.
For example, is working on the moon the reason they only live three years?
Otherwise, why did No. 5 and the others before them start to suffer from various bad symptoms in the end?
In other words, the life span of a cloned human is only 3 years?
Li Yi does not need to answer these questions, the audience will figure it out on their own!
Although the movie will be released after the opening ceremony of the Science Fiction Film Festival, it does not prevent them from warming up in advance.
"Director Li Yi's new film, "Moon" will refresh your understanding of science fiction movies!"
"It turns out that wonderful science fiction movies can be made at a low cost. "Moon" proves the reputation of low-cost science fiction movies. Science fiction movies are no longer an exclusive genre for large-scale productions!"
""Moon"-Ignorance is sometimes the greatest happiness!"
“‘Moon’ may also be a moon version of ‘The Truman Show’!”
"The modern version of the story of Wu Gang's conquest of Guangxi in "Moon" is true to the story told by Li Yi!"
There are no spoilers in these promotions, but they all have huge praise for the movie.
In fact, is "Moon" considered a top-notch low-budget science fiction movie?
This question is a matter of opinion, but you have to say that for China, a market that lacks real classic science fiction movies, "Moon" can definitely be regarded as excellent enough!
The response from fans was also very enthusiastic.
"Damn it, you can't watch the movie right now, why are you talking to me?"
"That's right, I know it's very appetizing!"
"I originally thought it was a bit nonsense to hold a science fiction film festival in China, but now I'm suddenly looking forward to it."
"I heard it is a low-budget science fiction film. According to the past habits of dog directors, this is to set a benchmark for the industry!"
"So sci-fi movie fans are in luck. We haven't been able to make big-budget movies yet, so it's okay to start with a small budget!"
Time passed by very quickly, and soon it was the opening day of China's first science fiction film festival.
Li Yi naturally attended the opening ceremony. It must be said that this time the China Science Fiction Film Festival also spent a lot of money. Li Yi met many internationally renowned science fiction film directors, and many people came to the science fiction film festival.
Overseas media and film critics.
In fact, there are many science fiction fans all over the world in the science fiction category. Although the Chinese Science Fiction Film Festival is held for the first time, a lot of money has been spent this time, so the promotion has been very good, especially
Li Yi's "The Moon" is frequently used for publicity.
After all, Li Yi is considered a relatively well-known director in the world, especially his past few science fiction movies, which still have a strong position among science fiction fans.
This time "Moon" is also titled as the moon version of "The Truman Show", so it still attracted many overseas fans to travel thousands of miles to China to participate in this science fiction film festival.
As the opening film "Moon", coupled with Li Yi's own influence, there was a long queue outside the screening hall showing "Moon" very early. It can be said that almost every show is full!
In order to attract popularity, it is naturally impossible for the film festival to purchase all tickets online, but instead allows more on-site ticket purchases.
This has also resulted in the current heated situation.
When the first screening of "Moon" ended, many viewers who walked out of the theater looked disappointed.
"How's it going? Is "Moon" good?"
"It's good-looking. It's indeed worthy of the moon version of "The Truman Show," but it feels even sadder and more desperate than "The Truman Show"!"
"No, I have to look at it again. There are a few places that are not clear!"
And soon, the first day of the Science Fiction Film Festival ended, and various media and film critics began to write special books about it.
Although there are many films screened at the Science Fiction Film Festival, "Moon" has received the most attention without any surprise. Movie fans at home and abroad are paying close attention to this film.
What came out earlier than these film reviews were short reviews on the Internet.
"Li Yi said that "Moon" is a future version of Wu Gang's story of conquering Gui. He was still wondering what the story would be like before. But after watching "Moon", he discovered that Wu Gang, the male protagonist of the movie, is actually better than the one in the mythical story.
Wu Gang is much more miserable!"
"We Chinese people all know the story of Chang'e flying to the moon, and we all lament that Chang'e in the story was only accompanied by the Moon Rabbit in the moon palace. She was always lonely, but there were still people who missed Chang'e. "The Moon" tells us that true loneliness is the root of others.
They don't know you exist, and you always think you are among them."
"My only friends are myself one after another. Watching their short-lived brilliance and witnessing their sudden death in front of me... How sad it is!"
"You asked me how deep my loneliness is? The moon represents my heart!"
"Why do I think the robot Bajie is the loneliest? Because the egg machine has been given the same emotions and IQ as a clone, so what is the difference between him and a human? What's even more frightening is that the clone only needs to suffer for 3 years, and
His pain and loneliness will last forever!"
"The most extreme loneliness in the world is that no one knows that one exists, but does not know it. Even the memories and homes rooted in the soul are false and fabricated. The short and long splendor blooms quietly like transparent fireworks.
Quietly disappearing. The story that is lonely to the core reveals a romance and poetry, the condemnation of capitalist greed is quietly powerful, and the cold picture brings a touch of warmth."
On the popular film review website, "Moon" has a score of 9.2 points!
Of course, this score is definitely not the final score. After all, "Moon" is not that perfect, but it is still amazing enough.
And soon a full-length film review was released.
Du Xianghai, Li Yi's die-hard film critic, fired the first shot to promote "Moon"!
“‘Moon’ tells the story of a loner!
Director Li Yi said that this is a story about Wu Gang's conquest of Guangxi. There are many versions of this story, one of which is: During the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Wu Gang who was obsessed with immortality and did not concentrate on his studies. Therefore, the Emperor of Heaven was angry and sent him to live there.
In the moon palace, he was ordered to cut down the osmanthus tree in the moon palace, and said: "If you chop down the osmanthus tree, you will gain immortality." But every time Wu Gang chopped the axe, the wound on the tree healed immediately when the ax was raised, day after day,
Wu Gang's wish to cut down laurel trees has not yet been fulfilled, so Wu Gang cut down laurel trees in the Moon Palace all year round, but could never cut down the tree. Therefore, future generations can see the image of Wu Gang endlessly cutting down laurel trees in the middle of the moon.
But I want to say that Wu Gang was punished because he made a mistake, but at least he is a person, a real person, and everything about him including his punishment is real.
But Wu Gang in "Moon" is different.
At the end of the movie, I watched the subtitles silently, thinking about the Wu Gang who stayed on the moon and the Wu Gang who returned to the earth. I recalled Wu Gang's life bit by bit from the beginning, like a vast ocean swallowing me up. In the end, I couldn't make a sound.
What if one day you discover that your memories are all fake, whether they are good or painful, and it turns out that you are just a clone of the real memory of yourself?
Wu Gang lived a lonely life for three years on the moon relying on the memories of his wife and daughter and the expectation of returning home. I watched him wander around alone on the screen, planting flowers, and playing table tennis with himself.
Watching movies and talking to the robot Bajie. When I got used to his presence alone and felt happy for his upcoming journey home, after an accident, another Wu Gang appeared...
..
Finally, Wu Gang knew that he was a clone with a lifespan of only three years. He knew that neither his wife nor his daughter in his memory belonged to him and had never belonged to him. He knew that his wife had died long ago, and his daughter was with the real Wu Gang.
At the age of 15, he knew that the company would not send him back to earth. He knew that the deep sleep machine was actually an incinerator. He knew that the previous Wu Gang who looked the same as him had turned into ashes. He knew that there were countless versions of himself in the basement.
I have to repeat my sad fate...
What is the most painful thing about Wu Gang?
Does his wife not love him anymore? Does his daughter not recognize him?
Or do you know you are going to die?
No, not at all. The most painful thing is that no one will care about him, remember him, or even know him!
My wife has passed away, but to her, who am I?
When she died, the real Wu Gang must have been by her side, right? His daughter was also there.
Wu Gang on the moon? Who is that?
What was even more painful was that the only memory that truly belonged to him was the three years he lived with Bajie on the moon. It turned out that everything he owned and missed was all fake. He sat on the rover and looked at
The earth outside the car, that blue planet, is so far away and indifferent.
It turns out that it was never my home.
So, he stayed on the moon quietly, waiting for his death, and let the next activated Wu Gang secretly return to the earth in an energy vehicle. Because he knew how much he wanted to return to the earth, "Go travel, I
I knew I wanted to travel.”
Yes, he has not thought about going home for a moment in the past three years. When he was injured, he also called me to go home.
But when the moment came, he chose to stay, because he knew that it was not his home, or he never had a home!
Everything about him is false, and the sad thing is that everyone knows that it is false, but only he always thinks that it is true!
When Wu Gang went to the earth and watched the moon slowly go away, I suddenly couldn't stop crying. It had nothing to do with the theme of the movie. What I missed the most was the Wu Gang and the robot Bajie who were left behind. The one with the words "Come and Kick" on his butt.
Bajie. He has accompanied countless Wu Gang. He knows everything about him. He always says "I just want to help you." He says he can't help them with things other than work, but he helps Wu Gang leave. He
The voice does not contain any emotion, but it is the true memory of Wu Gang on the moon.
In fact, the ignorant are the happy ones.
For Old Wu Gang No. 5, the reason why he is unhappy is because he knows too much. He knows that everything about him is fake, even his memories are fake.
For New Wu Gang No. 6, the reason why he is unhappy is because he knows too much. Although he can return to Earth, what if he sees his daughter? Because that is not his daughter at all, everything is wrong.
It's just an implanted memory. What's even more sad is that the daughter is not included in the implanted memory. Or she hasn't appeared yet.
When I saw the mining truck at the base knocking down the jammer, I undoubtedly had mixed feelings.
Because is this really a good thing for those Wu Gang who have not yet been activated?
In fact, they don't feel any pain at all because they don't know everything.
Because they don't know anything.
The pain is for No. 5, because he knows that his life is over, he knows that he is a clone, he knows that neither his wife nor his daughter belong to him, and they have never belonged to him. He knows that the company will not give him away.
Back on Earth, he knew that the deep-sleep machine was actually an incinerator. He knew that Sam Nos. 1-4, who looked the same as him, had turned into ashes. He knew that hundreds or even thousands of him in the basement would have to repeat his miserable behavior.
He knew that the love in his mind was fake, and even the pain was fake, but it was so real.
I used to believe that no matter how painful and difficult to accept the truth, I would choose to know it rather than live happily in ignorance.
For example, when I wake up on the 7th, like everyone before me, I work hard and look forward to the end of 3 years, and finally turn into a small ashes on the moon.
Is this the biggest tragedy? No, actually not, this is what can happen in this cold world. Their best choice is to become an ignorant person's small satisfaction."
