Chapter 4: The Law of the Dark Forest

The taxi was parked in front of a café in the city.

Lu Changming took the script and got off the car with Su Xiaozhou.

"Obviously, Weixi is a strict person, although she promised to ask her father to read your script, but she still wants to meet you first, if you are too bad, she will definitely regret it. "Su Xiaozhou is rarely serious.

She wants her brother to succeed, and this is a crucial step.

Lu Changming scratched the slightly curled hair next to his ears and looked into the café.

Since it was late afternoon, the café was quite crowded, but it was quiet and suitable for one person to sit and read.

"Let's go inside. Lu Changming doesn't ink, and he doesn't get nervous, which comes from his confidence in the script of "It's All Good".

The two walked into the café, Su Xiaozhou looked directly at the east corner, and then pulled Lu Changming over.

In the corner sat a girl with her hair coiled by the window – a hairstyle that in ancient times meant marriage, but in modern times it exudes a refreshing and clean atmosphere.

Lu Changming approached and looked at the girl's side face.

Melon seed face, crescent eyebrows, high nose bridge and small lips, very straight shoulders, natural back erect, strong aura.

It's obviously just a striped T-shirt and wide-legged pants, but it has the temperament of a dinner heroine.

"Weixi, we're here. Su Xiaozhou lowered his voice slightly and sat opposite Lin Weixi.

Lu Changming also sat down, and then saw that Lin Weixi was still holding a book in his hand, which was the famous "Silent Universe" in the science fiction literature world.

"Zhouzhou, what do you want to drink?" Lin Weixi smiled, his gaze swept over Lu Changming's face without pause.

"Two cups of cappuccino, both sugar. Su Xiaozhou said casually, and then introduced Lu Changming, "Weixi, this is my brother, you have also seen it in the circle of friends, handsome." ”

"Handsome. Lin Weixi responded with a smile.

"Ding, Lin Weixi praised you for being handsome, and the male god value was +0." Lu Changming checked the system, and sure enough, he added another zero egg.

"Hello Lin, my name is Lu Changming, a film and television person. Lu Changming stretched out his hand, Lin Weixi symbolically shook it, and the "Silent Universe" in his hand had been put down.

She didn't waste any time, and wanted to watch "It's All Good".

After just a few minutes, she nodded: "I have a lot of literary skills, but there is a possibility that it will sell well or not." ”

"Weixi, you can show your father, you have to try everything, you can't shoot a little fresh meat at once. Su Xiaozhou spoke for Lu Changming.

"Don't worry, I'll go back and read it again, this script is so long, my dad is busy and may not have time, I'll just read it and tell it to him." Lin Weixi gave an ambiguous reply.

Lu Changming secretly thought that this girl was really powerful, obviously she was just a high school student, but she was completely the style of the bigwigs in the circle.

is worthy of being the daughter of a famous guide.

Su Xiaozhou also heard a hint of something wrong, and wrinkled his nose: "Weixi, you can help, my brother is very powerful......

"Zhouzhou, don't force it. Lu Changming interrupted, "Mr. Lin Yimou has been busy filming "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" recently, and he is indeed very busy. Mr. Lin was willing to read my script and relayed it to Mr. Lin Yimou, which actually helped a lot. ”

Lu Changming is a sensible person, he didn't have a yin and yang weirdness when he said this, he and Lin Yi were not related, and it was a good kindness that someone's daughter was willing to read the script and relay it.

Lin Weixi raised his eyebrows, glanced at Lu Changming more, and did not speak.

Su Xiaozhou pouted, took a big sip of coffee, but choked himself and quickly got up and went to the bathroom.

Now there are only Lu Changming and Lin Weixi left.

Lin Weixi didn't feel embarrassed, but naturally and generously picked up "Cosmic Silence" and re-watched it.

Lu Changming found a topic to talk about: "French writer Vannal's "Silent Universe" can be regarded as a classic in the world of science fiction literature. ”

"Have you seen it too?" Lin Weixi took his gaze away from the book, and there was always a kind of calmness on his delicate and cold face.

"I studied Chinese in college, so I still know a lot about literature. The 'zoo hypothesis' in "The Silence of the Universe" shocked many readers and explained why mankind has not yet discovered extraterrestrial civilizations. Lu Changming said with a smile, he still has some foundation when talking about literature.

Lin Weixi's interest increased, and his eyes looked at Lu Changming: "Looking at your appearance, do you think the 'zoo hypothesis' is reasonable?"

Lin Weixi is indeed a literary girl, and she is going to discuss science fiction hypotheses with Lu Changming.

"The Silence of the Universe" revolves around the paradox of "the universe is so big, why is there only earth civilization".

The "zoo hypothesis" in the text refers to the fact that extraterrestrial civilizations have already discovered us, but they have kept us in captivity to observe, just like we observe ants.

This is a very scary hypothesis.

Lu Changming was also shocked when he first read it, and he thought it was true and regarded it as a classic.

But as the number of readers increased and my own perception deepened, I felt that the 'zoo hypothesis' was not absolutely reasonable, it was just a hypothesis.

For example, we humans observe ants, we may observe for an hour, a day, or even a year, but we will definitely not observe a hundred years and thousands of years.

And the history of human beings on Earth can be traced back thousands of years, so they will not be observed all the time, right? Will aliens always be interested in lower creatures? It is more likely that they should be trampled to death.

Observation is just an instinct of curiosity.

"It's barely plausible, there's a chance that we're monkeys in the zoo and being observed by aliens. Lu Changming said what he thought.

"Barely reasonable?" Lin Weixi frowned without a trace, she was a big fan of Vannal and a supporter of "Cosmic Silence", and she had read this book no less than five times.

Lu Changming's reluctance and reasonableness made her not very pleasant.

"Do you have a better explanation? Why is the universe so big, we have never found an alien civilization?" Lin Weixi smashed this question on Lu Changming's head, a little aggressive.

Lu Changming concluded that although he has watched a lot of science fiction works, his personal interest is mostly in film and television, so he has never given birth to his own ideas and theories.

Lin Weixi asked himself this, and he really couldn't come up with it.

Lu Changming shook his head and honestly said that he didn't have a better explanation.

Lin Weixi was satisfied, smiled slightly, and lowered his head to read again, looking like the years were quiet.

Lu Changming sighed to himself, although Lin Weixi's style is no problem, and he came here to help himself, but it was more or less uncomfortable.

Or......

Lu Changming secretly thought in his mind: System, can you come up with some cosmological theory like this?

"The host consumes 200 male god points to exchange for the 'Law of the Dark Deep Forest'. ”

Lu Changming's mind was shocked, and there was a simple and shocking theory of the universe.

His eyes lit up, and this law may have loopholes, comparable to the "zoo hypothesis", but much more terrifying, and more artistic.

The art of darkness.

The Art of Death.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, I once thought of a possibility that could also explain why the universe is silent. Lu Changming spoke, attracting Lin Weixi's attention again.

Lin Weixi waited for a while: "Please speak." ”

"The universe is a dark forest, and every civilization is a hunter with a gun, sneaking through the forest like a ghost. He had to be careful, because the woods were full of hunters like him, and if he found something else, there was only one thing he could do, shoot them. ”
