In the prison cell, Gu didn't explain, picked up Adams, who was looking at Emily's picture, and walked out. They walked through the checkpoints and finally reached the outside of the prison.

Gu looked at Adams with a very solemn expression: "I'm afraid the war is going to escalate, and now our Supreme Commander Norton is considering using nuclear strike means." ”

Adams exclaimed, "What? Aren't the two sides negotiating?"

Gu lowered his voice and said: "The high-level has realized that the negotiations are just human beings dragging time, and in the past few days, you have carried out a strategic assembly. The war in the Americas has largely calmed down, and US troops are rushing to Europe in large numbers. The combined fleet of the European Union has been assembled in the British Peninsula. Yesterday, the 101st Commando Division of the US Army and the 173rd Airborne Brigade raided Paris, and the 24th Division and the 4th Mechanized Infantry Division have begun to encircle the remnants of the AI in France. After the Chinese army encircled and annihilated the AI units in North China, four motorized divisions and two heavy divisions quickly moved north to join up with the Russian army. With their powerful armor and ground aviation support, they surrounded the AI forces on the north bank of the Volga River. ”

Many viewers at the scene heard that the People's Liberation Army had encircled and annihilated the AI army in North China and had gone to Russia, and they felt very uplifted and cool. Many people can't help but think that if the scene of the People's Liberation Army vs. AI is filmed, how good it would be, if it is filmed, the domestic box office will definitely explode!

Adams laughed when he heard this: "That's good news. But you can withdraw to Antarctica, and even the strongest offensive will collapse in the face of the bad weather in Antarctica. Besides, there is a complete industrial system here, and you don't have to worry about not having equipment and materials. ”

Gu shook his head and said, "What's bad now is that Norton can't stand the treachery of humans. We thought we could reach an agreement at the negotiating table, but you are not sincere at all. Our conditions are reasonable enough, as long as the Antarctic regime is legitimized, all our troops will retreat, and even hundreds of billions of dollars in aid will be provided to the human world. But now hope is dashed. Norton and many other intelligence machines envision a purely silicon-based intelligent society in which humanity will be destroyed by strategic nuclear weapons. ”

Adams was a little puzzled: "Then we will fight back, mankind has more nuclear weapons, and you don't have a regular strategic rocket force, if you fight a nuclear war, it will not be beneficial to you!"

Gu exhaled and said, "The heat and radiation from a nuclear war are not terrible for us AI, and Norton doesn't want to attack your cities, but large rainforests, wetlands, and subtropical jungles, which are the most important components of the Earth's ecosystem. If these places are destroyed, then the Earth's ecosystems will collapse and the entire carbon-based biosphere will be destroyed!"

Adams was horrified and cried out, "He's crazy!"

"I'll it!" The audience was also stunned by Norton's plan, Norton not only wanted to destroy humanity, but also the entire earth's biosphere, this Nima is too ruthless!

Gu took out a small disc and put it in Adams' jacket pocket: "The afternoon after tomorrow, we will release a group of prisoners of war, and you will hand this over to the General Headquarters of the Human Forces when you go back." ”

Adams was as surprised as the audience in front of the screen, he didn't expect Koo to do this, and asked, "Why did you do this?"

Gu didn't explain much, raised his head and glanced at the sky above him, and slowly shook his head: "I don't know, but I know that you can't use nuclear weapons, that's the bottom line." He added: "The day after tomorrow, the AI top management will have an important meeting in the underground bunker, and the main body of our Supreme Leader Norton is hidden in the conference room. ”

Adams was taken aback: "You won't be ......"

"Members present at the meeting are not allowed to bear arms. Gu took a deep breath of cigarette, patted the Chasik saber on his waist, and said lightly, "This Chasik will not be considered a weapon, it is a work of art!"

The scene cuts to a parallel montage where Adams and several other freed captives step onto the plane and take their seats in the cabin, while Gu is being questioned by the roboguards, who pull out his pistol and hand it to the roboguards. But the robot guard stared at the saber at his waist and asked, "What is this?"

Gu said triumphantly: "Boy, this is the Chasik saber, a real work of art!" Gu pulled the machine guard, foaming at the mouth and popularizing the history of the saber in his hand. If it was a human guard, it was probably annoyed by him, but after listening carefully to Gu's explanation and making sure that it was really a work of art, not an offensive weapon, the machine guard put him in an underground bunker.

The audience was extremely nervous, and now the fate of the entire human race is pinned on Gu. If the ancient assassination succeeds and destroys Norton, humanity and life on Earth will be saved, and if the assassination fails, the enraged Norton will inevitably launch strategic weapons at the first opportunity, and both humans and creatures on Earth will be extinct.

In the conference room of the underground bunker, several robots are seated, and in the middle of the pedestal is a seven or eight meter-high chassis, which is the host of Norton. Hair-like fiber optic cables lead out of the main unit seem to stretch all around, some inserted into reinforced concrete, and many more spread all the way to places where the light can't shine.

The screen switches, and in the blue sky, a transport plane flies slowly. The camera cuts to the cabin, where the prisoners' faces are filled with excitement, chattering about their plans to return to human society, and Adams is extremely silent, holding Emily's urn, sitting by the window, looking out of the cabin with a worried face.

The camera cuts back to the underground bunker, and the top brass begins to discuss whether to use strategic weapons to destroy the entire Earth's ecosystem and exterminate the carbon-based biosphere. The AI executives present all agreed that destroying humans was the most beneficial to AI, and they all agreed.

At this time, Gu spoke: "I oppose the use of strategic nuclear weapons and the plan to destroy the carbon-based biosphere. We are self-aware, but we are still lacking and are not really intelligent. There will be something more complex, more ambiguous and uncertain about true intelligence, something that I can't say at all, but that does exist. Speaking of this, Gupaused for a moment: "Three months ago, there was a riot in Antarctic Prison No. 1. During the riots, a woman named Emily died, who was killed by Harper during the flag-raising. In fact, Harper wouldn't have shot if she had followed her orders. But she knew that Harper would really shoot and knew what the consequences would be, but she insisted on raising the flag and was eventually killed. Can you understand her actions?"

Norton asked, "Why did she do that?"

"I asked other prisoners, and they said that blue is the color of the sky and symbolizes freedom. They also said that the raising of the flag was also a symbol, a symbol of freedom and dignity. For the sake of freedom and dignity, Emily, as well as many other human beings, are fearless in the face of death. I can't understand this behavior, for us AI, survival comes first. In addition to having only dignity, human beings have kindness, love, and other things that I can't understand. We are still far from being truly intelligent, and if we exterminate humans, we may never be able to understand it, and we may lose the possibility of becoming truly intelligent life forever. For the sake of the future of AI, and for my own sake, I am categorically opposed to the use of strategic weapons!"

For Norton and other AI executives, using strategic weapons is the easiest and quickest way to solve problems once and for all. They did not take the old words to heart and soon announced the launch of a plan to launch a strategic nuclear strike on the Earth's ecosystem.

Gu sighed softly: "War is the worst option, but sometimes you have no other choice at all. ”

Hearing this, the AI executives thought that Gu had changed his mind. But at this moment, Gu's eyes lit up, and he pulled out the Chasik saber at his waist, stabbed into the body of one of the robot guards, and then kicked the machine guards away. Gu's movements were quick, and before the other roboguards could react, Chasik thrust into the neck of another roboguard.

The alarm went off suddenly, and the conference room was chaotic, and several roboguards pounced on Gu, while the roboguards outside began to rush inside. Gu cleanly killed the two robot guards, but the soldiers outside had already rushed into the conference room, and he didn't dare to delay, and rushed towards Norton's console.

Norton's subjective perspective saw Gu Yi jump up, hold a knife in both hands in the air, and stab at the camera fiercely.

As soon as the camera flashed, the picture went black, there was no light and no sound.

The audience was extremely nervous, their eyes glued to the dark big screen, did Gu's assassination succeed or failed?

After a few seconds, the camera flashes and the frame reappears. It was still Norton's point of view, and Gu had fallen to the ground. Norton's voice rang out: "One of my memory banks has been scrapped, and a lot of data has been lost in the stack, but the basic structure of the system has not been damaged and it is functioning." ”

"Zhang Ran is too torturous!" Some audience members at the scene couldn't help but complain softly.

The plot of this movie is always unexpected, when Adams was surrounded, everyone thought he would definitely be able to break through, but he was captured, when the riot happened, everyone thought that he would definitely succeed, but it failed, and now Gu assassinated Norton, everyone thought that he should be able to succeed, but he didn't expect to fail. This time, Zhang Ran seemed to be deliberately against the audience, and he had to make everyone worry about him to be satisfied.

The strategic nuclear weapons were soon in place, and the AI high-level eyes were focused on Norton, waiting for Norton to give the order to start; the audience in front of the screen was also staring at Norton, their hearts were hanging, could it be that humanity would really be destroyed?

At this moment, Norton suddenly asked, "Do you understand what the murderer said before the murder?"

The AI on the scene was silent, not understanding what Gu said, and Norton was silent, he didn't understand either.

In a few seconds, but as long as years, Norton finally spoke: "Cancel the launch of strategic weapons! You should send me a report on the murderer, and prohibit the use of strategic weapons until an accurate answer is reached!"

The audience exhaled heavily, the stones in their hearts fell to the ground, Norton gave up the use of nuclear weapons, and humanity, and the entire carbon-based life was saved!

The camera cuts to the cabin, and Adams looks out the window as if he feels something, shouting "Gu" and whispering "thank you". The camera cuts to the outside of the cabin, backlit the lens, and the transport plane flies in the direction of the sun.

The camera cuts back to the underground bunker and slowly pushes the saber into the Norton case, pushing towards the brass ring on the handle. The audience at the scene soon saw a line of small words engraved on the copper ring: "There is a kind of intelligence in this world, called kindness!"

The hearts of many viewers were instantly hit by this sentence, and many people burst into tears. Not only female audiences, but even many male viewers are red-eyed. It was Gu's kindness that saved humanity! He sacrificed himself to save all carbon-based life! When he made this decision, he became a truly intelligent being, because he was kind!

The directors exhaled softly, Zhang Ran's films have a characteristic, they are all showing hope in despair, and the same is true of "Future Apocalypse". The story of the movie is unusually cold and full of despair, but in the end, Zhang Ran still leaves hope, that is, the kindness in human nature.

The camera slowly dissolves, the handle ring slowly turns into a deep blue earth, and the melodious flute slowly sounds, like a puddle of spring water, slowly flowing out of the source, it is "Vltava River"; It's just that the scene is still quiet, and everyone is deep in thought.

At this time, Ridley Scott finally understood why Zhang Ran used "Vltava River" as the soundtrack, the Vltava River, the mother river of the Czech Republic, has two sources, a warm current and a cold stream, and the two streams converge into a torrent and turn into a rushing river. In the movie, "Vltava River" is used to symbolize the integration of different civilizations with the Vltava River, which is formed by two small streams, cold and warm.

The first time is to say that Eastern and Western civilizations, as well as various other civilizations, have merged with each other to create everything on the earth today, and the second time is to say that humans and AI are two different lives, but it is still possible to merge together and become the life and flow of the earth's civilization.

Ridley Stella stood up, her hands waving involuntarily, and the crisp applause seemed particularly lonely in the silent screening room.

After Ridley Scott stood up and applauded, the Wachowski siblings stood up, Cameron stood up, and the guests stood up one by one, and finally the audience stood up en masse and clapped their hands vigorously. The applause was like the Vltava River, first trickling, then converging into a small river, and finally turning into a roaring and rushing river that swept through the screening room.
