In the history of human movies, "The Matrix" has a very special status, not because of its box office or its popularity among movie fans, but because it has brought an unprecedented impact to science fiction movies.
It may still be controversial to say that the visual effects exceed any previous science fiction movie, but when it comes to ideological aspects, there is no controversy. Maybe "Inception" in the future can compete with it, but
In 2004 and 2005, there had never been a science fiction movie that could create so many fans, and no science fiction movie could trigger such a large-scale discussion—people discussed it.
The plot of the movie, the special effects, the theme of the movie, the acting skills of the actors, and even the meaning of the names of the plot characters have to be debated.
This is a big debate that everyone from philosophers, film researchers to cultural researchers, freelance writers, and even Internet writers, computer programmers and more professionals are involved in. This is why "The Matrix"
This is why it has become a hot topic on the Internet, in academic magazines and in the mass media. In Europe, France even held an academic symposium specifically for it, with scholars from all over Europe participating.
Some people think that "The Matrix" reflects the director's worries about the future situation of mankind. Some people think that "The Matrix" is a religious movie. Some people think that it promotes fatalism. Some people think that it believes that human nature is
The most glorious thing - when light logic can no longer direct your behavior, then just follow your heart...
Every day, people can hear different people's understanding of "The Matrix" from the Internet, from the media, and even in daily life. This also makes more people decide to go into the cinema and see it with their own eyes. Those people
What is the debate about? This has also caused the global box office of "The Matrix" to rise steadily.
And now, "The Matrix 2" has only been released for a little more than a week, and the global box office has already approached 900 million US dollars. This figure was simply unimaginable in the 1990s. In fact, if it weren't for Fang Mingyuan and Hong Kong Kumho
Over the years, the film group has frequently produced excellent films. It has accumulated a good reputation around the world that is far beyond the reach of others. Each film will increase the number of fans of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group by tens of millions and attract movie audiences around the world.
We have formed a kind of ideological inertia - the movies produced by Hong Kong Kumho Film Group must be high-quality! Long-term savings have turned quantitative changes into qualitative changes. Many, many movie fans do not consider the quality of movies at all.
It’s not about the genre they like, or whether the lead actor is their favorite actor, but when they hear that it’s a movie made by the Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company with hundreds of millions of dollars invested, they must go to the cinema to see it.
Fang Mingyuan took two sips of coffee. He couldn't help but yawned again. Li Xintong whispered with some distress: "Mingyuan, I think you should go back to the room to rest for a while. Jiayi and I are here. What's the important thing?
I’ll let you know about it later.”
Fang Mingyuan shook his head slightly. His sleepiness was not just caused by running back and forth. A very important reason was also that he felt like grass had grown in his heart. It was already 2005, so how could the Indian Ocean
There was no movement at all over there? It would be best if he said that the tsunami was blown away by his butterfly wings, but he also knew that this must be wishful thinking.
In the area where the Indian Ocean tsunami broke out, geological activity has not been obvious in recent times, and the more this happens, the more doubtful Fang Mingyuan becomes - if earthquakes of magnitude 4 or 5 occur one after another there, and the pressure under the earth's crust is gradually released, then what will happen?
He can rest assured. There are always things on his mind, so the quality of his sleep is naturally not good. Moreover, he cannot share or talk about this matter with other people. He always holds it back like this, which makes him feel a little angry.
"Xintong is right, you are like this, how can you do a good job and disturb the two of us." Zheng Jiayi was affected by him and yawned.
"I just woke up, and I'm still a little confused. I'll be fine in a while." Fang Mingyuan knew that he wouldn't be able to sleep well when he went back, and he didn't want to put all these things on the shoulders of the two women.
"Okay, okay, by the way, take a look at this. I believe you will be interested." Zheng Jiayi took out a document from the pile of documents on the table and placed it in front of Fang Mingyuan.
"What's wrong?" Fang Mingyuan glanced at it and said, this is the information of the chemical plant jointly built by the Zhao family and Samsung Chemical. This plant started trial operation at the end of last year.
Before he finished speaking, the cell phone on the table suddenly rang. Fang Mingyuan glanced at it, immediately reached out and picked up the cell phone and said, "Hey, is this Professor Liu?"
"Mr. Fang, just half a minute ago, an earthquake with a magnitude of at least 8.5 on the Richter scale occurred in the Indian Ocean north of Sumatra Island in Indonesia. We believe that this undersea earthquake will trigger a tsunami, which may affect the Indian Ocean.
We are now sending tsunami warnings to the coastal countries of these countries!" Liu Zhengyan's machine gun-like voice came from the mobile phone.
"Okay, I understand. If there is any new situation, we will contact you in time!" Fang Mingyuan said immediately.
Seeing Fang Mingyuan hang up the phone, Zheng Jiayi quickly asked: "What happened? Where was the earthquake?"
"Xintong, do you still remember Professor Liu Zhengyan Liu whom we met in Korea? He just called me. There was an undersea earthquake in the waters north of Sumatra Island in Indonesia in the Indian Ocean. They think it will trigger a tsunami!"
Fang Mingyuan said, "However, the tsunami will not affect the area east of the Strait of Malacca. It is mainly the countries around the Indian Ocean that will face the threat of tsunami. They are notifying relevant government departments of various countries."
On January 3, 2005, it was 10:43:51 a.m. Beijing time, that is, Jakarta, and 9:43:51 a.m. local time in Bangkok, in the northwest of Sumatra Island, Indonesia.
A submarine earthquake suddenly broke out in a sea area of 160 kilometers and a depth of 30 kilometers underwater. The Indonesian Seismological Bureau measured the magnitude of the earthquake as 6.3 on the Richter scale. However, there were related incidents in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan and the United States.
The department's measurement standard was 8.6 on the Richter scale. Soon after, the National Earthquake Information Center of the United States revised it to 9 on the Richter scale. It was finally determined as 9.3 on the Richter scale, making it the second largest earthquake in the last century.
, second only to the Chilean earthquake in 1960!
The energy released by an earthquake measuring nine on the Richter scale exceeded the total energy consumed by the United States in one month at that time. Such a large amount of energy exploded on the seabed in a short moment, triggering a tsunami! Because tsunamis are caused by earthquakes on the seafloor
Caused by the sudden uplift or subsidence of the earth's crust, the sudden deformation of the seafloor crust causes a large surge in the seawater from the seafloor to the sea surface. The waves formed in this way are more destructive than the large waves usually formed by wind.
Much more, and the deeper the water where the earthquake occurs, the faster the tsunami will be, and can even reach a high speed of nearly a thousand kilometers per hour!
And the reason why the tsunami is so harmful is that it is extremely deceptive! Before it reaches the land, even people sailing on the sea at this time cannot detect the high-speed movement of water under the calm sea, and people on the shore also
You won't notice it, but once you get close to the land, the rising seabed will quickly reduce the depth of the seawater, and huge waves will form tall water walls, rushing onto the shore with overwhelming momentum.
If there is no early warning, people on the coast will have very little time to detect the arrival of the tsunami and avoid it in time, and whether they can avoid it depends on whether there are suitable conditions around them. A huge tsunami can destroy a fifty-ton
The ship was pushed one kilometer inland, so you can imagine how powerful its fury was. And the ordinary cabin in front of it was not much stronger than a matchbox. It was just a reinforced concrete building. When the tsunami waves were high,
When the distance exceeds 20 meters, there is a possibility of being forcibly pushed down.
In this way, the closest distance to the earthquake source is only about 160 kilometers. For waves with a speed of up to 800 kilometers per hour, it is only a 12-minute journey. Sumatra is the first area to be hit by the tsunami. Although,
Compared with the previous life, the time of this tsunami changed from morning to morning, which allowed many people to avoid the nightmare of being killed by the waves in their dreams, but this does not mean that more people will survive.
They were too close to the source of the earthquake. The sudden earthquake had already caused the locals to become confused. Houses collapsed and shook, the ground shook, and animals flew and screamed in fear. As a result, not many of them noticed the sea at all.
changes.
Moreover, the economy here is very backward. There is no decent transportation, communication and other infrastructure, let alone tsunami warning facilities. There has not been a tsunami in the Indian Ocean for decades, and people have long forgotten the danger of tsunamis.
Even if someone noticed the strange retreat of the waves at the beach, no one would realize that this was a sign of the coming tsunami. And even if he did, he would not be able to notify his compatriots in time. At this time, Liu Zhengyan and his friends called
I am still arguing with the staff of the Indonesian earthquake department, because the other party simply does not believe that a tsunami may occur, and more importantly, even if he believes it, he cannot notify the local government of Sumatra in time. The reason is simple.
In the midst of fighting for independence, local guerrillas have been in constant conflict with government forces since the mid-1970s. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and faster novels!
