After watching the completed movie, Chen Chen wore a grave expression for the first time.
A vague conjecture began to form in his mind.
With this in mind, Chen Chen picked up his phone and dialed Cheng Cao's number.
"Boss?"
"Cao, were you around the entire time the movie was being filmed?" Chen Chen asked softly.
"Yes, I've been following your instructions. I've been by your side for every scene," Cheng Cao replied over the phone.
"Then what's with the villains in the movie?"
Chen Chen scrolled to the middle of the progress bar and happened to see the villains wearing a variety of casual clothes with blank expressions. "Why do these people look so similar to us in our GS Combat Suits?"
"Originally, the villains wore black tights, but later on, the director suddenly felt that it was impractical. Then, after seeing my outfit, he was inspired and changed them to what they look like now."
Cheng Cao whispered, "Boss, are you worried that this style will cause us trouble after the movie is released?"
"Not really, it's just that..."
Chen Chen opened his mouth and finally ordered, "Cao, keep an eye on the director over there and pay close attention to his movements. See if he's in contact with any suspicious people. I'll be there soon."
"You're coming to my place?" Although Cheng Cao was a little confused, he still replied, "Okay, I'll keep an eye on him during this period."
After hanging up, Chen Chen's eyes became even more solemn.
He silently scrolled the progress bar forward until it reached the beginning.
In the opening scene of the movie, a date was displayed on the calendar in the laboratory — 30 May 2025.
This date was set three years in the future because Chen Chen wanted to keep it close to reality.
In Chen Chen's opinion, the possibility of the director being suspicious was less than one percent. Cheng Cao had the chip, so if he showed any disloyalty, he would be immediately discovered, so there should not be any problems.
In that case, the only answer was...
Chen Chen lowered his head and looked at the USB drive plugged into the computer with a look of hesitation.
"In any case, let's look at the result first. If it can't be put into the USB drive, then I'm just overthinking it."
Chen Chen muttered in a low voice, then selected the movie file and pressed [Ctlr + C], then opened the USB drive and pressed [Ctlr + v].
The progress bar flashed.
The computer screen flashed, and "Deadly Crisis: A Shocking Plan.mp4" successfully appeared in the space of the USB drive, becoming the eighth movie in the USB drive.
Holy shit!
It actually worked???
At this moment, Chen Chen suddenly had an extremely absurd feeling. It was like seeing Sadako climb out of the Hadron Collider in the Institute of High Energy Physics!
This was beyond Chen Chen's understanding.
No, that's not right. Perhaps there's another reason …
Chen Chen took a deep breath, quickly took out an NZT-48, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it. Then, he stared at the screen.
One second, two seconds, three seconds …
Half a minute later, Chen Chen felt his thoughts suddenly clear up. In an instant, countless conjectures poured into his mind and the previously shattered concepts were quickly reorganized.
Chen Chen slowly raised his head, the corner of his mouth curled into a sneer that seemed to have seen through everything.
"I see …"
As he spoke, he directly opened the movie from the USB flash drive. At the same time, he dragged it to the close-up shot of the AD-001 drug and reached out to grab it.
The moment his hand reached into the screen, it felt like he had entered a pool of clear water. Chen Chen was extremely familiar with this feeling. Without hesitation, he held the tube of drug, then gently extracted it!
At once, a transparent test tube with a silicone stopper at the mouth, only a dozen centimeters long, appeared in Chen Chen's hand!
In the test tube, there was a pool of blue liquid. The liquid emitted a gorgeous fluorescence under the sun, looking extremely poignant...
"Very interesting."
Looking at the liquid in his hand that was identical to the one in the movie, Chen Chen shook his head.
Based on his previous reasoning, Chen Chen had always guessed that the movie shot by the USB drive owner could not be stored in the USB drive.
This was because there was a contradiction that violated the laws of the universe — if the movie shot by the USB drive owner could be stored in the USB drive, then it was equivalent to:
The USB drive owner could design a prop in the movie the size of a grain of rice that contained a huge amount of energy. Then, the USB drive owner could continuously extract these things. As long as the energy consumed during the extraction was less than the energy extracted, would it not be possible to charge the USB drive infinitely?
This kind of existence was called a "perpetual motion machine".
Therefore, it was impossible for the USB drive to extract a prop that was incomparably small in size but had a huge amount of energy. There must be some kind of limitation that prevented Chen Chen from extracting such a prop.
However, now, not only could the USB drive contain Chen Chen's own movie, but it could also extract the drug that could cure Alzheimer's disease from the movie. This completely shattered Chen Chen's line of thought.
This scene was as if someone had discovered a button with the rule of the button written on it: "Press it and the sun will rise in the west tomorrow."
No one believed this sentence to be true, but some people thought that it was not like they would get pregnant if they tried it, so they pressed the button.
Then, the next day, the sun really did rise in the west...
"No, I misunderstood before."
Chen Chen shook his head and muttered in a low voice, "It's just that there's a possibility that I've overlooked. As long as I can confirm that, I can prove that the 'law of conservation' hasn't been broken."
Thinking of this, Chen Chen suddenly opened the web page and downloaded Men in Black again. This time, he did not download Men in Black: Global Wanted, but the first Men in Black that was released in 1997...
The first Men in Black was also known as the most classic in the entire series. Its main plot was about a cosmic civilization, the Arquilian Empire, and another cosmic civilization, the Zerg. The prince of the Arquilian Empire brought the "Milky Way" to Earth to seek refuge, but then the "Milky Way" was taken away by the Zerg.
In fact, among the audience of this movie, many people had a misunderstanding —
Many people thought that the pendant around the neck of the cat in the movie was the Milky Way in reality. In fact, this was wrong.
This involved a translation problem. In the movie, the characters referred to the pendant as "Galaxy," not "Milky."
Galaxy”。
In English, Milky Way
Galaxy was an accurate expression of "Milky Way", while the
"Galaxy" could refer to the Milky Way in uppercase, but in lowercase, it could also refer to "galaxy".
Just like how we wouldn't call all stars Sun (Sun). Milky Way
Galaxy and the
"Galaxy" also had two meanings.
If this evidence was not enough, there was another more favorable evidence in the movie —
That was, in the 1 hour, 08 minutes, and 40 seconds of the movie, when the female protagonist saw the "Galaxy" on the cat's neck, the light of the Galaxy was red.
However, at the end of the movie, in the long shot from Earth to the entire Milky Way, the Milky Way was white.
As everyone knew, in the various official human atlases, the Milky Way was indeed closer to white than red.
As for the alien who played with the marbles of the Milky Way at the end of the movie, what was the meaning of that?
According to the habitual thinking of ordinary people, they directly understood that the human Milky Way was that fragile marble, and humans could be destroyed by the anger of the aliens at any time.
This was not impossible.
Of course, it could also be understood as the director using an exaggerated method to express an infinite view of the universe similar to "a world in a grain of sand" —
It did not mean that the Milky Way was in the hands of the aliens, but the aliens were definitely stronger than humans. Perhaps in a grain of sand in the human world, they also lived there.
In the ending of the second part of the movie, this concept was expressed even more clearly —
Because there was a group of little aliens living in a cabinet. The protagonist said that the group of little aliens should be released. Otherwise, would it not be pitiful to stay in the cabinet?
However, at this time, K directly opened the cabinet door next to him.
Outside the cupboard door was an even larger world, and the world that the protagonist was in was just a cupboard door in that world …
In short, the meaning of these exaggerated and abstract scenes was a matter of the benevolent and the wise.
According to a dog in the movie, the "Galaxy" in the movie was a kind of cosmic subatomic energy, which contained extremely powerful energy. If this energy was obtained by the Zerg, it would cause a devastating blow to the Arquillian Empire.
For some reason, this matter was discovered by the Zerg, so the Zerg sent a warrior to infiltrate Earth, kill the prince of the Arquillian Empire, and attempted to seize the "Galaxy".
It was not until the end that everyone realized that the "Galaxy" had always been on the collar of the Arquillian prince's cat...
This was the plot of the entire Men in Black. At this time, Chen Chen was going to use the "Galaxy" to confirm his speculation.
With the exclusive fiber speed of 100 Mbps, the entire movie was quickly downloaded. After that, Chen Chen pressed copy and pasted it into the USB drive.
The progress bar flashed by.
The USB drive still did not reject this comedy.
Chen Chen secretly heaved a sigh of relief. In the next second, on a whim, he quickly took out his phone and took a picture of the current state of the USB drive.
After recording the state of the USB drive at this moment, Chen Chen opened the movie again and quickly dragged the progress bar to the image of the cosmic subatomic energy "Galaxy".
After that, Chen Chen reached out again and grabbed the pendant...
