The Goddess Shines on America

Star Trek!

As soon as the college student in the front row uttered this noun, Takashi Qingshui's eyes lit up immediately, and he leaned forward, even causing Fazi who was on the side to look at him in surprise.

"Star Trek" ah...

Although Takashi Shimizu is not very old, he has long been concerned about the development of Hollywood movies, and for this classic sci-fi series shot by Paramount, he has already combined two TV series with a total of about 100 episodes. Four full movies, all watched over and over again!

At this time, the curvature navigation suddenly mentioned in "Alien 2" was first proposed by "Star Trek"!

This kind of technology is easy to understand. It is to drive the spacecraft through the transformation of space-time itself, and use the loopholes in the laws of physics to break the limit that the speed of light cannot exceed.

Because the space in the universe is actually not flat, but there is curvature, just like there are countless tangents on the surface of any sphere, but the curvature of space does not only exist on the surface, but countless absences.

The function of the curvature engine is to smooth out the curvature of the space "rear" of the spaceship just like ironing the folds of clothes with an iron. Or it is like a piston, which shrinks and expands the very front and rear spaces respectively, then under the effect of the law of conservation of mass and energy, the space where the spaceship is located will naturally be "dragged" to move forward.

Naturally, the engine power is different, and the forward speed is different. But there is no doubt that under the premise that physical acceleration cannot surpass light, this is the most direct way to reach superluminal speed!

"It turns out that Alice is still a fan of space science fiction..."

Takashi Shimizu would not think that this string of lines was added by director Cameron. Although that person has made a movie like "Terminator", he will not reveal to the audience such knowledge that has nothing to do with the plot itself in the detailed lines.

Suppressing the surprise and joy in his heart for the time being, Takashi Qingshui glanced happily at the two girls around him, and then continued to concentrate on the movie itself.

The movie plot continues.

Although fifty-seven years have passed, the "company" that dispatched Ripley's commercial cargo spaceship still exists. According to their records, Ripley activated the self-destruct device of the spacecraft for "unknown reasons", so the next step is naturally the accountability stage.

It was in this huge triangular pyramid-shaped space base established by the "company", in a meeting room with a shiny metal wall panel as the background, a court sentence was going on. The company brought in a judge from the "federal government" on the grounds that Ripley had destroyed company property.

They are all tiny details of the plot, but many viewers who are used to watching sci-fi movies are keenly aware that the director and screenwriter are subtly building a rigorous and grand worldview.

Since human beings have entered the interstellar age after all, and Ripley is not a scheming character, she honestly made a written report on the existence of the alien and what happened to herself and the crew at that time, and then submitted it to the Company executives.

When this episode was just staged, Takashi Qingshui frowned worriedly.

Informing a group of "ordinary people" of the existence of a "monster"?

How could this be believed! ?

This was Qing Shuichong's first thought, but then, watching the development of the plot, he suddenly realized that this is the interstellar era after all. "Alien" in 1979 did not describe the world view in depth like "Star Trek". Maybe humans have encountered other alien creatures long ago?

Perhaps this is the case, but the suspicion has not been dispelled, but in Qing Shui's view, this suspicion is really well-founded, and it is impossible for people to feel angry with the company.

First of all, for fifty-seven years, the company has inspected the wreckage of the spacecraft after self-destruction, and found no trace of the existence of aliens, and found no clues in Ripley's escape pod.

Although Ripley was extremely angry about this, he could only admit that he was unlucky. Because there is only one alien from the beginning to the end, and when I finally eliminated it, I also broke the glass of the escape cabin and threw the entire alien out of the spaceship with the difference in air pressure. It is strange that there are residual traces.

If I knew it earlier, I would have cleaned it up in another way...

Sad...

Then, the point of the plot came.

Ripley questioned the judge: Didn't you send people to conduct field investigations on the LV-426 asteroid? There are thousands of alien eggs waiting to be fed there!

There are thousands of eggs, but if one gets into a spaceship, everyone has to finish the game!

"Yes, yes, there is this evidence!"

Seeing this, Fazi said excitedly, clenching his fists.

However, the judge ignored Ripley's roar at all, and simply pronounced the result of her treatment: Officer Ripley, military registration number NRC14472, was not suitable to hold an ICC license due to improper judgment, and served as an interstellar Duties of the flight officer. Therefore, we will permanently revoke its license. "

"At present, we will not prosecute you for any crime, but you will receive psychological treatment for six months and will be checked by an ICC psychologist once a month. The court will be adjourned."

The verdict was handed down so easily, and what Ripley said earlier about the asteroid was met with cold reception by everyone. For a while, the whole movie theater was silent, and Fazi and Michiko sat side by side, feeling very puzzled by the judge's inexplicable judgment.

But fortunately, it's not just the audience who are wondering, even Ripley is baffled by this result. So, when most of the people filed out of the conference room, she stopped the judge directly and questioned him: "Why don't you directly check the situation of LV-426?"

"Because that's not necessary."

While everyone was waiting for the judge to say something stupid, he replied, "Because it's been inhabited for twenty years, and nothing unusual has ever been said."

"Nani!?"

As soon as this remark came out, Fazi immediately covered his mouth and exclaimed. In the relatively quiet movie theater, there were exclamations from young people everywhere, and most of them were women.

Only to hear Ripley also wondered: "What do you mean? What kind of people live?"

"Planet Transformer, Engineer!"

There were still people walking out of the room, and the judge patiently explained to Ripley: "They are going to install an atmosphere generating device for further interstellar colonization. In fact, they are already the first batch of colonists, and the entire project took In ten years, it is no longer necessary to wear an oxygen mask when going out!"

In just a few words, the amount of information revealed is so much that it will kill all the audience with a stick. For a while, there was a burst of emotion in the seats, and many people couldn't help talking.

"The imagination of Americans is really rich. The atmospheric generating device is so imaginative!"

"Haha, I just don't know if this device was made by us Japanese."

"It seems that the world of "Alien" is the era of great interstellar voyages, but what is their time standard? What about the rhythm of life? Twenty years..."

The discussion didn't sound much before it fell, because the most important content mentioned in these lines appeared on the screen immediately.

Asteroid LV-426, a colony planet with a population of 300 households.

It was late at night, and gusts of wind blew up billowing light blue dust. Looking ahead from a cliff, one could see huge buildings like fortifications on battlefields looming in the wind and sand. At the same time, dots of yellow lights are also flashing, allowing people to more clearly construct the distribution of the entire building complex.

The screen switched. According to the comparison of the light bulbs on the top, this metal wall is about five meters high. This side of it has an 80-degree inclination angle, but the other side is undoubtedly completely vertical. In fact, it is such a small detail that once again made the audience notice the sincerity of the producer.

Very delicate, this is everyone's first feeling. The wall on the screen is more than ten meters long, and there is a metal gate that is slowly opening horizontally. There are no traces of rough welding at all. The entire wall and door seem to be poured in one go.

"It's aluminum alloy. This metal absorbs heat slowly and dissipates heat quickly. Otherwise, no one would dare to touch these walls during the day!"

A man who seemed to be a college student of science and engineering spoke up, but no one responded to him. Everyone was attracted by the huge monster that appeared next.

The huge engineering vehicle has four rows of thick tires, and eight wheels carry a behemoth with sharp edges and corners, driving into the base with a rumbling roar.

The following plot is a view of daily life in the colony. A large number of engineers are working in an office building, with metal products and angular structures everywhere. Based on the simple dialogue between the two characters, the audience quickly understands a very simple thing.

For this group of engineers, exploring all over the asteroid in that all-terrain vehicle is an honor like a cowboy exploring a gold mine. Everyone is waiting in line to get on that "all-terrain vehicle", but if they can find any rare minerals in the wild, such as various elements that are rare on earth, they will get a huge sum from the "company" wealth!

"See, the 'company' is being mentioned from beginning to end."

Fazi noticed this, and murmured to Michiko, "It seems to have been mentioned in the first part, but it was just background information. Now it seems that the director wants to make it into an interstellar super-big chaebol!"

This time, Michiko didn't have the time to pay attention to the method, because the family members of the employees were everywhere in the camera, and there were as many as five or six children who showed up at this moment.

"Are they going to be okay?"

Michiko said nervously: "This colony will definitely be attacked by aliens, what should these children do?"

Sitting next to them, Takashi Shimizu said with great approval, "This is the director's purpose, sinister Cameron!"
