Something like a lucid dream did not sound like a serious thing. There was no formal scientific research organization in the country that had done a detailed study on it. It was probably because the human brain was too complicated. Scientists had not even fully understood the production of consciousness, let alone this kind of half-asleep, half-awake consciousness.
Zhang Zian clarified to Famous, "Of course I don't believe in this. What do you mean by repeatedly practicing to the highest level, you can ignore the boundary between dreams and reality … This is clearly another way of saying it. Only Wang Qian and Li Kun would believe in this. However, to say whether or not you can control the direction of the dream through repeated practice … I really can't say for sure. "
"In other words, there is such a possibility?" Famous asked.
Zhang Zian hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I think at least this possibility can't be ruled out."
Famous was lost in thought.
"Although scientists haven't done in-depth research on lucid dreams, there is something similar, which is the VR games that appear in many science fiction novels. These two things can let people experience things that they can't experience in the real world, or they can let people experience things that they have to pay a very high price to experience in the real world at a low price …" Zhang Zian added.
"Isn't that good? After all, in the real world, there are very few people who can control a lot of resources and wealth. It seems quite interesting to let ordinary people experience the feeling of being rich and powerful through lucid dreams and VR games. "Famous said.
"If it's only experienced once or twice, of course, it's not a big deal, but basically, in this kind of science fiction novel, the users of VR games will eventually be immersed in the virtual world and can't extricate themselves. Because the virtual world is too beautiful, the real world is boring in comparison, and they can't experience any fun. In the end, they even voluntarily give up the real world … VR games can only be experienced once or twice, but to achieve lucid dreams requires repeated practice, so lucid dreams are more likely to be addictive and more likely to make people feel disappointed in the real world," Zhang Zian said with a warning tone.
Although some dreams were fascinating, dreams were, after all, dreams were dreams, not reality. It was not good to indulge in them.
Famous understood the meaning behind his words. "I know, I will be careful."
In its dream, it could realize that it was dreaming, but it had always been doubtful about changing the direction of the dream. For example, the dream that appeared according to Old Time Tea's memory, what was outside of Old Time Tea's memory? Was it like an unfinished section in a computer game? Or was it a bottomless abyss?
It didn't know, and it didn't try.
However, it did not know what was going on recently, but the doubts in its heart were getting lower and lower. Instead, its confidence was increasing rapidly, and it wanted to go to unknown places to try, such as …
In Old Time Tea's memory, there was definitely no Europe in the early 20th century. If Famous went all the way west in the dream, what would happen? What would he see?
If Famous had successfully arrived in Europe, which was in the midst of war at that time, would he have seen his younger self?
No! It was not him when he was young, but Ren Dingding when he was young!
It quickly shook its head to wake itself up. It was too immersed in its role and almost confused itself with Ren Dingding.
After all, it had played Ren Dingding for too long, and the people in the film company asked it to imitate Ren Dingding vividly. Ren Dingding's every move was exactly the same, and Duncan often held it in his arms and repeatedly told it how he saved the young Ren Dingding from the gunfire … After a long time, it had a strong brainwashing effect.
The other elfins got up one after another and went downstairs. Zhang Zian opened the curtains and opened the windows for ventilation, then picked up his phone from beside his pillow to check his unread messages.
He had been pulled into various groups, and there were a lot of unread messages. Every day, at least 20 to 30 people added him as a friend. Some were customers, some were fans, some were reporters, and some were government officials. He needed to filter them one by one before selectively accepting friend requests.
Feng Xuan had sent several messages, all sent around one or two in the morning.
Zhang Zian thought it was something important, so he opened his messages first.
Feng Xuan: Xiao Zhang, are you asleep?
Feng Xuan: I have good news for you. Just after 12 o 'clock, our movie's schedule has been extended twice, and it has finally finished its public screening. The preliminary box office statistics have come out. Guess how much it is?
Feng Xuan: Well, it seems that you're already asleep. It's rare for young people to sleep so early like you. I wanted to let you guess, but I'll tell you directly. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have insomnia if I keep thinking about it.
Feng Xuan: One billion!
Feng Xuan: Are you surprised? Everyone from the crew to the film company is very surprised. Our production budget plus the publicity budget is less than half a billion, and part of it is the additional publicity budget after we won the award. It's really hard to imagine!
Feng Xuan: Well, I'm going to bed. My wife has urged me several times, but I think I'll still have insomnia tonight.
Feng Xuan: The crew is planning a celebration party. Do you have time to attend?
Feng Xuan: Looking forward to your reply! Say hello to Famous for me! Good night!
After reading the message, Zhang Zian was both surprised and excited. Although he and the crew had expected that the box office would not be bad, this could be inferred from the number of fans who came to the pet shop every day to take photos with Famous, many of whom traveled thousands of miles from other places just to talk to Famous face to face about how touched the movie had been to them … no one dared to guess that the box office would actually be one billion!
A box office of one billion could almost squeeze into the top ten of the annual box office in China. As a movie starring a dog, this was already the peak of achievement.
In addition, although the box office results in the mainland could not be compared with those super popular movies, the response in the overseas market was unexpectedly good. Dozens of countries had already introduced or intended to introduce the movie. If everything went well, they could make another wave of money from overseas.
Other messages were mostly from the crew or the film company, as well as from directors or producers who were interested in cooperating with them. Even the production director, Nie Yuan, who had always been at odds with them, had sent a few official congratulatory messages … These messages could be skimmed through, edited, and sent back together. After all, it was difficult to send charcoal in snowy weather, but it was easy to add flowers to something already perfect.
After reading all the messages, Zhang Zian was about to turn off the phone screen to wash his face and brush his teeth, and also to inform Famous of the good news.
Just then, another message popped up on the screen.
