Chapter 507 Dark Forest

The novel "Three Body" mentions many science fiction concepts, and the most terrifying and chilling one is the "Dark Forest" theory proposed in the second part.

The most important thing is that this theory has even been endorsed by many astronomers, who believe that this theory can explain a problem, that is, the famous "Fermi Paradox".

This paradox originated from a question raised by Italian scientist Fermi when chatting with his colleagues, that is, the universe has been expanding for countless years, and countless planets suitable for the emergence of life must have been born, but why can humans discover and use radio waves, but still have not found aliens.

The "Dark Forest Theory" in "Three Body" just explains this question.

That is, the universe is very dangerous. We haven't seen aliens now because they are all hiding.

In this universe, if you dare to show up, you will die.

Because there is a "chain of suspicion" between two strange civilizations, we don't know whether the other party is friendly or evil, and we can't judge whether the other party will attack us.

The most terrifying thing is that we can't judge how the other party sees us.

What's more terrible is that human development potential is too great. From the Industrial Revolution to the Information Age, it took only two or three hundred years. On the timeline of the development of the universe, it was just a matter of a moment.

After the civilizations of the two planets came into contact, one side had a "technological explosion" and had the ability to go on interstellar expeditions, so it was effortless to destroy the other side!

This is the general content of the "Dark Forest Theory". Every civilization in the universe must hide itself well and not be discovered by others.

When they discover others, the most appropriate thing to do is to directly destroy the other party to avoid the other party's sudden "technological explosion" and destroy themselves in turn.

Luo Ji understood the "Dark Forest Theory" and was able to shock the "Three Body Civilization" at the most critical moment and open the "Deterrence Era" of the earth.

And the source of all this came from a conversation between him and Ye Wenjie in front of his daughter Yang Dong's grave.

It can be said that this scene is very important in the whole movie.

Jiang Heng also took many shots tirelessly, striving for perfection.

At the shooting site, Jiang Heng shouted "Start".

In the camera, a woman dressed in simple and elegant clothes, a little older, walked slowly. It was Ye Wenjie played by Zhang Jingchu.

"Teacher Ye, you... you are here?"

Chen Kun spoke, his expression seemed a little surprised.

"You... are Xiao Luo?"

"I am Luo Ji, Yang Dong's high school classmate, what are you doing...!"

Chen Kun wore a black woolen coat, and the whole person looked very elegant and a little bookish.

"I knew this place the other day, it's very good, and it's convenient to take a car. I often come here for a walk recently."

Zhang Jingchu's voice is still a little young, and it needs to be dubbed later.

Chen Kun advised: "Teacher Ye, you have to mourn."

"Oh, it's all over...!"

In the first part, Ye Wenjie's daughter Yang Dong was played by Wan Qian.

Because the earth science at that time was locked by the Three-Body Civilization, a large number of scientists committed suicide. When she checked her mother's computer, she accidentally discovered that Ye Wenjie was the mastermind behind the Three-Body Civilization's invasion of the earth, and she also committed suicide in despair.

These contents have been described in the movie "Three-Body 1", so when "Three-Body 2" is finished, a short scene of Yang Dong's suicide in Ye Wenjie's memory will be added here.

At the shooting site, the two chatted casually. Ye Wenjie asked Luo Ji about his major. After learning that he had a double degree in astronomy and sociology, she suddenly proposed that Luo Ji study "cosmic sociology" and randomly gave him two axioms.

One is that survival is the first need of civilization; the other is that civilization continues to grow and expand, but the total amount of matter in the universe remains unchanged.

In front of the camera, Chen Kun looked a little surprised and said that these two axioms are already very mature, why don't you study them yourself?

Zhang Jingchu smiled, "I thought about it for half my life to come up with these, and there is no time!"

Then, she talked about "chain of suspicion" and "technological explosion"!

It can be said that Ye Wenjie played a great role in Luo Ji's understanding of the "Dark Forest Theory".

It was her contact with the Three-Body civilization that brought unprecedented disasters to the earth.

It was she who vaguely thought of the "Dark Forest Theory" and inspired Luo Ji, leaving a glimmer of hope for the human civilization on Earth.

But at this moment, Luo Ji didn't understand why Ye Wenjie said this at all. When he wanted to ask more details, the latter raised his wrist to look at the watch and sighed: "There is no time. You will have to rely on yourself to understand it in the future!"

She turned and left, slowly disappearing in the twilight, leaving only Luo Ji standing there with a confused face.

"Ka, not bad, this one passed!"

"Huh!"

Zhang Jingchu, who had already walked out of the camera, let out a long breath, and at the same time felt a little lost.

Because the completion of this scene means that her plot in "The Three-Body Problem 2" has been completed.

The protagonists are Luo Ji and Zhuang Yan, and she has nothing to do.

Fortunately, the assistant director was still righteous and clapped his hands and said: "Come on, let's congratulate Teacher Zhang Jingchu for the completion of her role in "The Three-Body Problem 2"!"

The people around applauded, and Zhang Jingchu hurriedly expressed her gratitude.

After work, the crew prepared a simple wrap-up banquet for Zhang Jingchu. Not many people came, so there were only two tables.

But Jiang Heng, Chen Kun, Zhang Ruolan and others came, which moved Zhang Jingchu very much.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Jingchu was so excited that she burst into tears.

Because she knew that after this, she would never be able to star in a special effects blockbuster of this level in her life.

She was really grateful to Jiang Heng and said that it was worth it to star in "The Three-Body Problem" 1 and 2.

Then he hugged Zhang Ruolan and cried, asking her to cherish the opportunity and act well.

Zhang Ruolan, a little girl who had just reached adulthood, had never experienced such a thing, but she was also infected by the atmosphere and cried.

On the contrary, Jiang Heng, Chen Kun and other old-timers were relatively calm.

The two sat next to each other and smoked, talking about two concepts that were not explained in detail during the filming, "technical explosion" and "chain of suspicion"!

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "The weapons that the Earth civilization has today can easily destroy the Earth civilization of three hundred years ago. And who knows how advanced the weapons will be in three hundred years!

Just like the civilization in America, there has been no progress for thousands of years. Once the European explorers went there, they were easily destroyed!"

Chen Kun has also done a lot of homework during this period, and sighed: "So, the invasion of the Earth by the Three Body is really too similar to the colonization of America by Western European countries.

The colonization was possible because the Europeans at that time used flintlock rifles. If they were discovered with today's equipment, they would have destroyed everything!"

Jiang Heng smiled, "Your idea, if director James Cameron filmed it, it would be "Avatar"!" (End of this chapter)
