The Goddess Shines on America

The movie theater located in Ueno Commercial Street is naturally not a small one. As the bustling audience took their seats, Michiko looked around excitedly.

"Look, look, there are four hundred seats in this theater, right? It's a huge scale, look at these people."

Fazi nodded in agreement. The current movie hall is like a shrine during New Year's visits. There are guests constantly pouring in everywhere, but there is one less step to leave.

"Hey, do you want some popcorn?"

At this moment, Qing Shui, who entered the arena much later than them, came over, holding three buckets of popcorn in both hands and said: "You are welcome, you can take whatever you want!"

Fazi chuckled: "I've already bought three servings, so you're welcome to say anything. Qingshuisang, you are so considerate, do you want to plot against us?"

Shimizu smirked and sat on the seat. If the ticket had not been exchanged, this should have been the seat of the law: "It's nothing, it's just two buckets of popcorn, come on, come on, you're welcome."

From the very beginning, Michiko kept looking at Fazi and Shimizu. Are they really interesting? Of course, it's up to the two of them whether it's interesting or not, and Michiko is not going to snatch her girlfriend's boyfriend. Then, since she is a girlfriend's prospective boyfriend, she will not be polite.

"Oh, then this barrel is mine!"

Now that his friend had already taken one, Fazi thanked him softly and took the other one too.

The theater entered the theater ten minutes earlier. This period of time is usually not felt, but when the audience sits in the theater, it seems extraordinarily long. Fazi ate the popcorn slowly while paying attention to the conversations of the people around him.

"Hey, Hanako, in the future, I will definitely go to Hollywood to work hard."

"It's so cool! It's a big Hollywood production! What? That's right, this is the second time I've watched it. No spoilers, no spoilers, just keep watching."

"The filming cost was 58 million US dollars, the box office of this film must be aimed at 100 million, or even more!"

Among the comments of many movie fans, this sentence is the most attractive method. Filming cost half a billion dollars? God, when will Japan have such an investment movie?

Thinking of the situation of various movies and TV shows in recent years, she couldn't help but sighed helplessly.

Then suddenly, the lights on both sides of the theater went out!

"Ah, it's started."

Michiko wanted to say something to Fazi just now, but now she doesn't say anything, her eyes are fixed on the screen.

The audience fell into silence for an instant.

Immediately afterwards, more lights dimmed one after another, and the huge screen lit up without making the audience wait a second longer.

What first appeared was the opening title of DreamWorks, a crescent moon above the clouds, and a character in a fairy tale was sitting on the crescent and fishing. Seeing this magnificent scene, both Fazi and Michiko could not help but sigh weakly.

But then, the screen turned into pitch black, and there were bursts of eerie music playing around.

The subtitles read: "James Cameron directs."

"Dreamworks product."

The bursts of opening titles and subtitles are all displayed in the darkness, and the eerie music in the background follows it to a climax. Soon, in only twenty or thirty seconds, when the English name of "Alien" appears on the screen, the eerie The music even reached a high-pitched peak in an instant, and a burst of sharp sound quality rushed to the audience!

Shimizu even forgot to eat popcorn: "It's so cool!"

Immediately afterwards, an endless starry sky was presented in front of the audience.

The camera gradually zoomed in, and a huge metal building standing in the depths of the starry sky attracted everyone's attention.

It doesn't look like a spaceship, but it should be a military base. The huge regular triangular pyramid body can't see the engine, and can't see the trend of progress. But this is not the point. Accompanied by the heavy and vast sound of music, the camera patrolled the huge starry sky creation, and worked hard for the audience to fully grasp its shape.

Qing Shui stared at the screen, and continued to murmur: "It's so cool..."

The entire theater was completely silent, because everyone was shocked to find that there was not a single trace of fraud on such a behemoth!

Yes, fake, it's a wonderful feeling.

Whether it is the earliest space sci-fi film "A Space Odyssey 2001", or the "Star Trek" series, or the most famous "Star Wars" trilogy today, of course, everyone is shocked by the power of science and technology, and even more so. Shocked by the excellent visual effects of film and television.

But when they saw this metal base standing in space, everyone suddenly had an idea - those previous movies were really fake!

Even before seeing it, they didn't think so, but when the camera clearly and carefully brushed over the surface of the base, everyone felt it.

First of all, this base seems to really stand in space. Many sci-fi fans immediately recalled the sci-fi movies of the past, as if, almost, those spaceships in the past were just like putting models on a curtain.

Furthermore, the metal texture of this base is extremely strong. Qing Shui watched the opening scene carefully, and he suddenly felt that compared to this "spaceship", the spaceships in the previous sci-fi movies seemed to be made of plastic?

I didn't feel like I didn't have before seeing "this one", but after seeing it, compared with those previous movies, the classics of the past seem to have become scum, at least in terms of visual effects.

It took only ten seconds from the moment when the distant view of the metal base of the regular triangular pyramid appeared to the moment when the camera swept over a large area of ​​detail on it. But Qing Shui let out a deep breath. He clearly realized that those sci-fi movies in the past were really wasted!

The subsequent plot did not exceed the expectations of the audience. It was nothing more than that Ripley, who entered the escape cabin in the previous work "Alien", was found by the people of this base. Of course, from a narrative point of view, Ripley's spaceship is guided by the computer to fly into the base, and then, from the perspective of Ripley sleeping in the cabin, the existence of the outside world begins to cut the hatch of the take-off ship.

The visual effects in it once again aroused the interest of the audience.

Through the glass, everyone could see that there was a cutting machine outside, but when the machine started working, there was no dramatic sparks flying around. It's not even the way metal is supposed to be when it melts, instead of gold and crimson, a cool-toned blue light becomes the expression of cutting marks, and in a buzzing sound of "the instrument is powered on", the entire metal door is cut open. Enough wide passage.

"Hey, fazi."

Michiko whispered, "What kind of machine are they using?"

Fazi didn't have the energy to answer because a new situation had emerged.

A small but delicate instrument floated into the cabin.

The little guy has a golden shell, which is made of metal and looks like a half ring. In the center of the ring is a sphere that shimmers with blue and white luster, just like a crystal ball, but there are various complex lusters shining clearly inside.

There were exclamations everywhere in the cinema, and everyone was fascinated by this beautiful scene. A college student in the front row of Fazi said, "This seems to be plasma, right? It's so beautiful!"

The instrument floated one meter above the ground, automatically floated into the room, and projected a crystal blue light from the blue crystal at the end of the half-ring golden casing. The audience could understand this scene, no doubt the little guy was scanning the situation in the cabin.

Then soon after it scanned Ripley's cabin, it backed out and was replaced by two crew members. However, they did not wear ordinary military uniforms, nor did they wear the space suits that everyone expected, but a steel armor that seemed to be made of a metal shell.

The armor is still blue, and it looks quite bloated, but it is very similar to the common spacesuit, except that the material is made of metal, and there are helmets and masks with exactly the same face.

The two soldiers were holding guns, but when they saw the dormant cabin, one of them stretched out his hand and gently wiped off the water vapor on the glass of the dormant cabin with his seemingly rough but flexible metal fingers.

"How did they do it?"

In the silent theater, the exclamation of a certain young man was everyone's question, and Qing Shui kept muttering in a low voice: "Iron Man, this is simply Iron Man!"

Afterwards, the plot ushered in a calm. After waking up, the heroine Ripley was told that she had been in a deep sleep for fifty-seven years because of the deviation of the escape capsule track from the route. The Patrol Ship" found her by accident and brought her back with the technology of "curvature navigation".

"What did you say, curvature sailing?

Seemingly understanding that this is also the audience’s doubts, Ripley thoughtfully asked all those who paid for the tickets: “My escape pod only has a particle propulsion engine.”

Lines of subtitles were continuously displayed at the bottom of the screen, and Michiko couldn't bear it any longer, and poked Shimizu Takashi in a way: "Hey, what is that particle, what engine, what is it?"

Qing Shui Takashi waved his hand, his eyes fixed on the screen: "Shut up!"

Just listening to the "company" representative who explained the situation to her, he explained thoughtfully: "You have been dormant for fifty-seven years. Forty years ago, we made a new breakthrough in the technology of curvature navigation. You see, The principle of curvature navigation itself is to change the curvature of space within a range, so as to use the form of 'drag' to let the moved space drag the spaceship to travel faster than the speed of light, right?"

"Later we discovered that when many spaceships form a formation and are in a state of curvature together, with the formation of spaceships as endpoints and their positions as diagonals, the entire geometric space is in a state of curvature."

"That is to say, if we use a formation to surround a certain...ordinary spaceship, or anything else, in the formation camp. Then, even if that spaceship or something does not have a curvature engine, it will be brought together by the formation FTL travel. That's how we brought you back, Ripley."

The information content of a sentence is too rich, almost no one speaks out, and the only thing that can be heard is the college student in the front row muttering: "Is "Star Trek"..."
