"This is indeed a shocking work, and we can also see a lot of ancient Chinese practices from the middle, as well as some of their living habits." "It was a different experience...... You know, maybe our focus is different, so our ancient people's lives are different from ours after all. ”

Luo Mo did not directly agree with his words, but said: "This may not be a matter of focus, but it should be the difference between the environment and culture." ”

He thought carefully for a while and then said: "China's civilization originated in the Yellow River Valley, we slowly learned to farm, and began to gradually embark on a road of agricultural civilization...... Compared with our current era, although the technology is not developed, but their living environment is relatively better, as far as I know, many of our areas that have become deserts today, in that era, it was still fertile land, and it can still carry the survival of many people. Therefore, our imagination comes more from the imagination of the land, and more danger comes from the danger of our own people to their own people, so more and more attention is paid to etiquette, and everyone pays more attention to ethics and morality. And this set of rituals began to be slowly adopted by the rulers, and became a concept in people's minds. ”

"I know this...... This is what Confucius advocated. Jenny interjected to show her knowledge of the matter.

Luo Mo nodded and said, "That's right, Confucius advocated etiquette and thought that etiquette could solve most problems. Therefore, when Yue Fei faced the emperor's betrayal of him twice or three times, he would not think about rebelling, but could only passively accept it, in fact, there are too many such people in Chinese history, but you can never say that they are stupid...... It's just that there is awe in their hearts. ”

"That's right! Yue Fei is a great person. Jenny seemed slightly excited, but then embarrassed: "I'm sorry...... I liked the character so much that I ......"

"It's okay, I actually like your reaction." Luo Mo said very sincerely.

"That's good." Jenny said: "Yue Fei is really a great person, I think he concentrates the good of men, loyal, strong, thoughtful, and can solve a lot of problems...... But his end...... Sorry I interrupted you, please continue. ”

Luo Mo shook his head and smiled to show that he didn't mind, and then continued: "This is ancient China, they feel that without etiquette, people are no different from ****." Then, we move on to the issue of cultural through-holes, the origin of Western civilization is ancient Greece, and ancient Greece is different from our living environment, so we have a certain difference in cultural through-holes. They are facing the sea, they are looking up at the starry sky, exploring more of the origin of this world, starting from the school of Miletus, more and more expressed a strong interest in the origin of this world, and you are also traveling a kind of maritime civilization, of course, starting from Plato, you are also paying attention to yourself and ethics, "The Ideal State" is a very great work, here provides three classes of ideal society, this and some of Confucius's ideas are similar, the difference is that Confucius's ideas have many things to be inherited, but " Of course, I don't mean to belittle Plato, Europe, where Western civilization originated, is often faced with forces and the mutual tilting of various races, which gives your civilization more foundation for a hundred flowers to bloom after the Renaissance. ”

Luo Mo said some more about this problem.

Jenny listened attentively, and then said, "You said it well! But in fact, I think that there is no lack of exploration in China for this world, and a "Tao Te Ching" is even more inclusive of heaven and earth and humanities, which is very rare. ”

"Oh?" Luo Mo showed a look of interest: "It seems that you have some understanding of our culture. ”

"As you know, I looked up a lot of information and read the Tao Te Ching, to be honest, I don't really understand it, but I heard that even Heidegger's Being and Time, the representative of modern philosophy, has places that have been influenced by the Tao Te Ching, and he still wants to use the word 'Tao'. OH…… Oh my God, sir, our topic has been ripped off. ”

"I'm sorry, but I have to say that our topic has gone off track." Luo Mo smiled and shrugged his shoulders.

"Okay, let's return to the question of "Yue Fei: Empty Sadness", I want to ask you, what do you think is the main thing about this film that can attract the audience of the entire world world so much? For what can they contribute so much to the box office of this film. ”

"First of all, let's talk about the visuals." Luo Mo said: "It took us a lot of effort to finally finish all the special effects of this film...... You know, this special effect is really hard, and it took us almost a year to do it. The second is some of the plot of the movie...... I think everyone can find the answer in the movie. ”

"Do you think the high box office of "Yue Fei: Empty Sorrow" in the world has anything to do with the rise of China?" Jenny asked suddenly.

Luo Mo was stunned, she didn't expect her to ask such a political question, Luo Mo was very calm on this kind of major issue, and quickly replied: "After all, these are two aspects, although culture and economy cannot be separated from each other, but I prefer to treat these as two things." My "Yue Fei", well, to put it mildly, I'd rather think that everyone likes this movie...... And not the peaceful rise of China. ”

Jenny skimmed the question lightly: "Can you tell us about your new movie?" I heard that Warner Television's "Justice League: Valorant and Fearless" has begun to launch promotion, which was originally a sequel to "Superman v Batman", if you missed this movie, there must be other new plans. ”

Luo Mo snorted, and then said: "My new movie actually said it myself, well, I plan to make a science fiction movie...... The source of the movie is a science fiction novel in our country, called "The Three-Body Problem", of course, this is more of an idea, and it may not be able to become a reality, because maybe I will have some changes in my thinking. ”

"Okay, then can you tell us the story of "The Three-Body Problem"?"

Luo Mo said: "The story itself...... I think you can read this novel, as far as I know, the sales of the English version of "The Three-Body Problem" in the Western world are still quite large, but I can say a theory in it, because I think this is one of the most fascinating things about "The Three-Body Problem", and it is also the basis for the existence of the novel "The Three-Body Problem". ”

"Oh? Then I'd love to hear it. ”

"This theory is called the Dark Forest, that is, all the civilizations in the universe are like hunters running in the dark forest, they must carefully control their bodies, and carefully restrain everything that can expose themselves, because, once discovered, it means destroyed."

“OH！ It's incredible! Jenny seemed a little surprised: "Can't we coexist?" Just like the aliens ET and the earthlings, there are also worlds like the one in "Men in Black...... Isn't that right? ”

Luo Mo shook his head: "The theory of the dark forest, there is a derivation process, when two civilizations in the universe meet, I can't judge whether the other civilization has malicious intentions towards me, and the same is true for the other civilization, and we can't judge whether the other civilization thinks our civilization has malicious intentions towards their civilization, and they can't judge...... So, this leads to mutual suspicion! Then, in order to preserve itself, one civilization must completely destroy another! ”

"Oh! This...... This ...... "Jenny thought it was incredible at first, but when she thought about it, it was really like that...... Suddenly, a complete coldness suddenly and slowly descended.

"But...... For example, we are now in the era of information civilization, after the industrial revolution, if we encounter a civilization that is still slash-and-burn...... Why should we do it against them? They have no way to threaten us. ”

Luo Mo shook his head slightly and smiled: "You're right...... However, in this world, there is a thing called the Technique Explosion...... For example, our planet, can you imagine? Many of the ever-changing technologies have been developed in the past two or three hundred years, and our technology has come to a big bang, and human beings have suddenly changed from people who can barely use guns to people who can go to the sky with airplanes, use electronic computers, and explore the universe and the deep sea, but in the past few thousand years, we have not had much rapid progress in the nature of technology...... Therefore, how can we judge that the other party's civilization will not explode in a short period of time and directly surpass us with a very fast development speed? ”

When Luo Mo finished saying this, he glanced at Jenny and found that her face was a little pale, as if something had been destroyed.

Obviously, she felt that such a statement was terrible, and it seemed to have a loophole, but she could not find that loophole - it was a complete inference, based on irrefutable logical facts, and such an inference had a strict logical structure, which could not be overturned by logic.

But isn't this a terrible result?

“OH…… God, that's a terrible theory. Jenny said, "I think if it were made into a movie, there would be a lot of people interested in it...... Looks like I have to buy a copy of "The Three-Body Problem" to read. ”

This interview ended shortly after, and as a side effect, Luo Mo's theory of the Dark Forest kept Jenny in a state where she was trying to think but seemed to get nowhere.
