Chapter 2547: Being a reporter requires seriousness
PS: It’s the end of the month, and I’m sending the little battlefield reporter Xiao Weiwei to ask for monthly tickets.
"The movie has started on my end, how about your end?"
"It's just the beginning. I haven't encountered such a direct PK situation for a long time. Keep in touch at all times."
"Ok."
Zhan Dun replied to the message and was about to close the screen when he felt a pair of eyes staring at him. He looked down and saw the young reporter next to him looking at him seriously.
He thought he had disturbed the young war reporter from watching a movie, so he asked, "What's wrong? Did I disturb you?"
Xiao Weiwei nodded seriously, and then said: "The movie has started, don't play with your phone, Boss Zhang's movie is very good, you have to be serious."
Zhan Dun burst out laughing, but seeing that the young reporter didn't seem to be joking with him at all, he nodded and said okay, promising not to play with his phone anymore.
However, on second thought, I just agreed to keep in touch with Lao Wu and share my thoughts on the movie.
Also premiering today was the movie Taotie, directed by the famous director Sun Jianrong, and the investor was the Art Life Group that was preparing to invest in The Matrix. However, due to disagreements over the starring role and pay, the two parties eventually parted ways and invested in the Sino-foreign co-production Taotie instead, while Zhang Tan continued to promote the establishment of the Matrix project.
Moreover, both parties directly scheduled the release date at the same time, making it clear that they were going to have a face-to-face competition to see who would have the last laugh.
Tonight, the premiere of "Taotie" is also being held, but not in Pujiang, but in the capital. The invited guests and the lineup are no less than Zhang Tan's.
Another colleague of Zhan Dun was invited to attend the premiere of "Taotie", and he came to the scene of "The Matrix". Both parties wanted to know the quality of the two movies, and could not wait until the end of the movie, but wanted to share information in time during the process.
In fact, it is not just Zhan Dun and Lao Wu. In the media group they are in, it is extremely lively at the moment. Everyone is checking the information and speaking very enthusiastically. The topics of discussion are "The Matrix" and "Taotie".
It's been a long time since there was such a blatant competition between two teams, especially in the film industry. This situation is very rare, but it's also exciting, isn't it?
Even many people in the industry feel that this is beneficial to the entire industry.
Zhan Dun thought while watching the big screen. The story of "The Matrix" took place in 1999. The protagonist Leo woke up from a dream and couldn't help but doubt the world. He felt that he couldn't distinguish between dreams and reality, so he went to the bar to relax. In the bar, he was told a series of inexplicable information, and the next day he saw the reality of the world. Someone told him that the world was virtualized by a machine. If he swallowed the blue pill, he would pretend that nothing had happened, and if he swallowed the red pill, he would return to the real world.
For a science fiction film, this kind of opening is nothing special, not old-fashioned, but not new either.
Everyone stared at the big screen intently, following the protagonist into this sci-fi world...
The light in the theater kept changing with the plot on the screen, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, illuminating the focused expressions of everyone.
Unconsciously, everyone was immersed in the plot and put themselves in the shoes of the protagonist.
Zhan Dun came back to his senses after he felt his cell phone vibrate. Before he knew it, more than ten minutes had passed.
The message was sent by Old Wu. The content was very concise. It said: The scene is grand and the colors are as bright as ever. How about you?
Zhan Dun thought for a while and wrote: Novel setting and genius idea, do you know the brain in the vat?
After sending the message, he felt someone staring at him again. He knew without looking that it was the young war reporter named Xiao Weiwei. He quickly put away his phone and looked at Xiao Weiwei apologetically. Sure enough, he saw that the young reporter had a puffy face and looked a little unhappy.
He quickly apologized: "It was a message from my friend, and I replied."
Xiao Weiwei snorted, said nothing, and continued to look at the movie.
Zhan Dun also quickly turned to watch the movie. As the plot progressed, he was completely attracted.
After his message was sent, Old Wu, who was far away at BJ's "Taotie" performance, was stunned. Brain in a jar? He had never heard of it. He immediately used his mobile phone to search and found a lot of information about "brains in jars".
The so-called "brain in a vat" is a hypothesis proposed by a scientist in 1981: a person was operated on by an evil scientist, his brain was cut off from his body and placed in a vat filled with nutrient solution to keep the brain alive, and information was transmitted to the brain through a computer to keep him under the illusion that everything was completely normal. For him, it seemed that people, objects, and the sky still existed, his own movements and body sensations could be input, and this brain could also input or intercept memories.
This hypothesis raises a classic question: How can we be sure that our conscious experience is generated by the real physical world and not simulated by some external device?
After seeing this message, Lao Wu didn't understand what Lao Zhan meant by asking this question. He thought it must be related to "The Matrix", but he couldn't guess how it was related.
So he quickly replied to the message: I know, what?
It took Zhan Dun a while to remember that Lao Wu should reply to the message. He was immersed in the plot of the movie and didn't feel the vibration of his phone when the message came.
He saw the reply from Lao Wu, and then typed quickly with both hands, writing: The world set in The Matrix is the application of such a genius concept as "brain in a vat". It is difficult to explain in three words, so we will talk about it later.
It's not just that he can't explain it in a few words. There is another important reason. He felt the young reporter next to him was staring at him. He could even hear the little guy's heavy breathing, probably because he was angry.
The young reporter was really going to get angry.
He quickly put away his phone, and then said to Xiao Weiwei: "This is really the last time. I will never look at my phone again. I promise."
Xiao Weiwei snorted and ignored him. Today's colleagues not only plagiarize other people's news, but are also unprofessional and play with their phones during work! It's too disrespectful to Boss Zhang! She even wanted to report it to Xiaobai.
Zhan Dun immediately asked again: "But is it okay for me to use the computer? I want to watch a movie while writing the news."
Xiao Weiwei nodded and said yes.
That’s more like it. Being a journalist requires more seriousness and diligence.
Zhan Dun said thank you, opened his laptop and started typing on the document.
Many people around him were like him, watching movies while typing on the keyboard. At the same time, he logged into the chat software on his computer and sent a message to Lao Wu: "The Matrix" has a big appetite. If the quality level does not decline in the future, as long as it maintains the current level, then Zhang Tan not only wants the box office, but also wants to shoot a milestone Chinese science fiction film.
Thinking of this, he thought for a moment, changed China to the world, and then continued typing: This movie incorporates many religious elements and philosophical viewpoints, giving it a unique spiritual connotation. I think that even after another thirty years, this movie will still be fresh to watch.
