Chapter 108: Loneliness and Shock

In the future world, with the rapid progress of science and technology, the situation of energy shortage is becoming more and more serious, and it is accompanied by food shortages, pollution and other problems.

In order to curb this situation, a company called Yuexing Industrial Co., Ltd. came into being.

The company is committed to the development of lunar energy, which meets the Earth's energy needs by harvesting helium-3 from the lunar surface.

The opening of the film uses a montage technique, relying on narration and camera switching to introduce the background of the story clearly.

Immediately, the camera turned to the space workstation on the moon, and the male protagonist Xu Shanzheng was exercising on the treadmill.

Soon the camera turned to outer space again, just a picture of looking at the "small" earth from the moon, which made many viewers at the scene exclaim.

"This is science fiction!"

"This moon and earth look just like the real thing!"

"Chen Hao really didn't disappoint me!"

......

For ordinary audiences, the biggest attraction of "Moon" to them is undoubtedly the special effects picture, and they are also here for this, obviously this beginning gave them some surprises.

Maybe they have already seen more shocking special effects in Hollywood blockbusters, but "Moon" is different, this is a Chinese film.

To be able to have such a performance has made everyone very happy.

Even many film critics are nodding their heads and feeling relieved, at least they do have the appearance of science fiction films.

The ensuing series of shots made the scene restless again.

The satellite revolves around the moon, revealing the cratered surface of the moon.

Then the camera turns to the mining base on the surface of the moon, and in the distance is the endless universe, on the rolling mountains of the moon, huge mining trucks are working, and the lights in the workstations are constantly flashing.

Everything seems so realistic, yet vast and shocking!

"How were these shots taken, and why are they so realistic?"

"Is the level of domestic special effects already so powerful?"

"I heard that the production cost is only 10 million, I really don't know how Chen Hao did this, I think this effect of 30 million is not enough!"

......

Hearing the discussion behind him, and then looking at Director Tang who was also wide-eyed on the side, Yu Dong couldn't help but smile.

I was like everyone else at the beginning, and I was really shocked by this real special effects shot, and I couldn't believe that this was a domestic movie!

can only say that his little brother can turn decay into magic, and it only took 10 million to shoot the best domestic sci-fi shot!

On the big screen, Xu Shanzheng was reminded and started his work, driving the space vehicle to the inside of the mining vehicle to retrieve the collected energy canisters, and then launch them back to Earth.

The futuristic fingerprints, iris security system, and metallic internal steel frame structure presented in the lens all make the audience feel novel.

Then Xu Shan put on a space suit, and the space car and mining vehicle that appeared also made everyone applaud.

Finally, there is a domestic sci-fi special effects film that can be used.

Although there is still a big gap compared to Hollywood blockbusters, this has already made the audience feel satisfied.

The film continues.

On the entire moon, only Xu Shanzheng was alone, accompanied by an intelligent robot.

He is accustomed to talking to himself, missing his beloved wife and daughter, chatting with the flowers he raises in his spare time, and sometimes making models of the streets of his hometown.

Sometimes he had headaches and hallucinations that burned his hands, and he often dreamed of his wife in his dreams, and his loneliness was everywhere.

Subsequently, Xu Shanzheng had an accident at work, but he woke up in the base and forgot about the accident, and he insisted on leaving the cabin only to find another self at the scene of the accident.

Xu Shanzheng, who was rescued, met a "new" self, and gradually calmed down after being crazy for a while.

In the course of the dispute, the new Xu Shanzheng convinces the old Xu Shanzheng to believe the truth: they are clones, and they are already No. 5 and No. 6.

After finally confirming from the robot the fact that they were clones, activating a new one every three years, and implanting memories, Xu Shanzheng 5 was silent.

Then Xu Shanzheng5 drove to a place where the signal jammer could not interfere, and dialed the home number with a video phone, only to learn that the so-called newborn daughter is now 15 years old, and his wife has died unexpectedly.

As he was about to ask further questions, his daughter called her dad to the other end of the room, and then the voice of Zhen Xu Shanzheng came out, and he couldn't bear to close the phone anymore.

This is the emotional flashpoint of the whole film.

The lonely and cold moon, facing the unreachable home in the air - the earth, in the car is Xu Shanzheng's cry that can no longer hold back his choking, "I want to go home......"

Knowing that he is a clone and can only end his short life on the moon alone for 3 years, I am afraid that no one can understand the despair.

It's just that it's too late, the rescue team is about to arrive, and if they know that the two have discovered the truth, then neither of them will survive.

So No. 6 proposes to activate No. 7 to kill and put into the accident car, and then leave it on his own, while No. 5 returns to Earth.

But No. 5 refused, because he was already seriously ill, and they wouldn't kill No. 7, so it was better to let the dying self be found by the rescue team and No. 6 return to Earth.

Unlike humans, who only know interests, clones are willing to sacrifice for each other, which has to be said to be a great irony.

The two drove to the scene of the accident together, and in the car, they recalled the beautiful scene when they first met their wife, and the sad atmosphere gradually intensified.

After that, No. 6 carried No. 5, who was already unconscious, into the accident car.

Under the sun's rays, the mournful music may never be able to experience the feeling of burying oneself with one's own hands as a human being, which is also the reason for the powerful shock of this paragraph.

There is only an hour left before the rescue team arrives, and the film enters the most exciting countdown minutes, which is almost every scene changing.

The first 5 minutes were spent discussing countermeasures with the robot, formatting it and setting it to restart after the launch of the spacecraft, so that the rescue team would not learn about the actions of 6 from the robot.

At 1:29, No. 6, who had already entered the spacecraft and was ready to launch, suddenly jumped out, because he thought of the clones in the future, and he still didn't forget to think about others at such a critical juncture. He programmed the miner before returning to the ship again.

At 1:30, Xu Shanzheng No. 7 had woken up, the rescue team arrived on time, and the rhythm of the film slowed down.

At 1:31, Xu Shanzheng 5, who saw the launch of the spacecraft from the accident car, finally closed his eyes.

His mission is complete, and the other self has sailed towards his hometown with his own thoughts.

At 1:32, the huge mining truck crashed into the interference tower, which is the way left by No. 6 for the future Xu Shanzheng clones, even if they can't succeed, they are expected to discover the human conspiracy.

At 1:33, the camera cuts to Earth, and a radio voice announces the final ending: No. 6, who has returned to Earth, has exposed the conspiracy of the Moon Star Company, and the company is finally facing bankruptcy.

At 1:34, the eerie music still sounds, as the ending song - the whole story ends.

This is "The Moon"!
