The ladder plan is implemented after the wall plan.

This is a supplementary plan, because the human world is transparent to the Trisolaran world, but to humans, the Trisolaran world is a mystery. So the world government decided to start the ladder plan. Originally, we wanted to send a person to the Trisolaran world in order to obtain information about the Trisolaran world. Let me mention here that we cannot send people directly to the Trisolaran planet. It is too far. We can only send people to the Trisolaran planet that is about to reach the earth. We hope that the Trisolaran fleet can intercept our aircraft and intercept this person.

The aircraft of Project Ladder is very small and has no propulsion device, but it has a huge sail. This sail is connected to the aircraft with the strongest nanomaterial "flying blade" we can make. The entire device moves forward by the thrust generated by the explosion of nuclear bombs. It is expected that Can reach one percent of the speed of light.

Remember this "flying blade". This is not a kind thing. It was this flying blade that killed the scientist who came to China to plant trees mentioned earlier. The scientist who was saved by Ye Wenjie later became the leader of the Adventist sect of the Trisolaran organization. people. The flying blade cut him into three parts: upper, middle and lower. The top one was still crawling on the ground for one meter, which was scary...

Let’s talk about the ladder plan. Later, we found that a person is too heavy for the aircraft to fly, so we came up with a famous saying in Three-Body Problem: Only send the brain. The government believes that Trisolarans can resurrect this brain.

The final ladder plan indeed only gave away one brain, and that was Yun Tianming's.

Yun Tianming should be regarded as a relatively sad and sad figure on earth, abandoned by God.

When Yun Tianming was young, his parents gave him an aristocratic education, which made it difficult for him to integrate into the group and he was often alone. When he was in junior high school at the age of 13, his parents divorced, which made him introverted and sensitive, and unwilling to express himself.

In 2001, Yun Tianming went to university, Aerospace Science and Technology University, majoring in aerospace engines. He became college classmates with Cheng Xin and had a crush on Cheng Xin. Remember this Cheng Xin, big shot, we will talk about it later.

After graduating from college, Yun Tianming and Cheng Xin's life paths diverged. Cheng Xin later became a researcher for the Ladder Project, while Yun Tianming entered the advanced stage of lung cancer and was about to undergo euthanasia.

Because Yun Tianming was very smart, he made a lot of money with a creative idea he gave to his classmates, and his classmates also gave him a sum of money. Because he was about to die, he bought Cheng Xin a star before his death, a star system hundreds of light years away from the solar system.

Not long after the purchase, Cheng Xin found him. It wasn't because of the stars. At this time, Cheng Xin didn't know it was him who bought it. It was because I heard that Yun Tianming was going to die, and he was going to die anyway, so he planned to take his brain and send it to the Trisolaran World.

Yun Tianming hesitated, but finally agreed.

All the stars were given away, just a brain, given to her.

However, this brain must be taken out before death, because complete consciousness must be retained and there must be no death area.

So Yun Tianming was equivalent to accepting a fate more terrible than death. Being intercepted, being studied and experimented on in a world full of aliens, life would be worse than death. If it is not intercepted, it will float in outer space forever and live in darkness forever.

As a result, it was indeed intercepted. Although our flying blade was broken and the aircraft was missing, we thought that the ladder plan had failed. However, maybe the Trisolarans are more curious about the human brain and actually sent a fleet to catch up. . Of course, people on earth don’t know that now.

Time flies. On this day, human beings have been exposed in outer space and are waiting for the attack. The Trisolaran planet has been destroyed by the attack. The Trisolaran fleet, water droplets, and sophons have also given up their voyage to the earth. Cheng Xin planned to commit suicide because of something I haven't said yet. Yes, she lived for hundreds of years, albeit mostly sleeping.

On this day, Yun Tianming suddenly received news that he wanted to see Cheng Xin. I think he came to save her because he saw that she was about to commit suicide. A love lasts for hundreds of years. Yun Tianming is indeed a nobleman, a spiritual nobleman. I No mortal can compare.

The people on Earth were very happy that Yun Tianming was still alive and came to save them.

The Trisolarans controlled their meeting place and time, and strictly paid attention to the content of their conversations. If they were even suspected of leaking Trisolaris technology and world information, they would blow up Cheng Xin. Of course, Yun Tianming was a holographic image transmitter. Those who come over will not be hurt. This shows that the Trisolaran is actually very kind to Yun Tianming.

During the meeting, Cheng Xin also saw this. Yun Tianming had been cloned out of his entire body, and it was exactly the same as before his death. Even the years had not aged him. He is planting the seeds given to him by Cheng Xin in the Trisolaran fleet, in an area that is exclusive to him. In the Trisolaran world, Yun Tianming can only eat these.

Yun Tianming is living well, at least peacefully and optimistically, as if all the haze on the earth has disappeared.

Since he couldn't tell anything else, Yun Tianming told Cheng Xin three stories: "The King's New Painter", "The Gluttonous Sea" and "The Prince of the Deep Sea".

If you are interested, please click 1 and I will copy and paste these stories for you.

In fact, Yun Tianming was a litterateur in the Trisolaran world. In order to prevent the Trisolarans from finding out, he made up hundreds of stories for the Trisolarans to listen to, and regarded them as their fairy tales, which were very popular. These three stories were specially compiled by Yun Tianming for Earth. Hidden inside are ways to avoid attacks, live safely and seek development.

Therefore, in fact, the wall-breaking plan will destroy the earth, and the bunker plan will truly save the earth. This is why readers have mixed reviews of Luo Ji, but they all like Yun Tianming.

Hidden are three plans.

One is the bunker plan, which is also the best plan implemented by humans. It is to move humans to the backs of several planets that are relatively far away from the sun. When the sun is attacked by high-energy particles, they can avoid the impact.

This is also the most useless plan that has been wasted for a long time. Because in the end, outer space civilization knew that the solar system had a dead end, and did not use particles to impact the sun at all. Instead, it directly turned the solar system into a two-dimensional plane, and it was changing infinitely, and nothing could escape.

The second one is the Black Domain Plan. It is to show a safety statement to outer space to prove that we are absolutely safe and do not threaten anyone. Please don't waste weapons. The method is to artificially reduce the speed of light in the solar system and turn the solar system into a black area.

The disadvantage of this is that human beings will live in the solar system forever and will never be able to leave. Human civilization will also progress slowly, because the reduction of the speed of light will limit the development of science and technology. But the good thing is that the solar system is so big that it can survive and will never be attacked again. Human civilization can continue from generation to generation.

Unfortunately, humans have not found a way to reduce the speed of light. In fact, Yun Tianming has already given a way in the story, which is to use a light-speed spacecraft.

This is also the third plan, the light speed spacecraft plan. Yun Tianming pointed out that only the speed of light can escape a two-dimensional plane attack. However, humans did not know that there would be a two-dimensional plane attack at the time and only thought it was a simple escape plan of a light-speed spacecraft.

Because this involves human inequality, it is impossible to take everyone away. This choice violates the moral bottom line of mankind and will cause great turmoil in the world, so it is banned. However, Cheng Xin built one herself. Well, because the star that Yun Tianming gave her was expropriated by the government, Cheng Xin was very rich.

When a light-speed spacecraft starts off, it will leave traces, which contain low light speeds. As long as many light-speed spacecraft start in the solar system, they will turn the solar system into a black area.

Yun Tianming hopes that human beings can choose. Those who do not want to wander in outer space and settle down can live on the earth for generations, and those who want to leave can take a spaceship.

Alas, what a pity... humans didn't understand.

Finally, when everything was destroyed, Cheng Xin and her best friend Ai AA escaped. Make an appointment with Yun Tianming to meet on their star.

Yun Tianming left, but Cheng Xin missed it. Cheng Xin accidentally entered the low-light speed trace left by a light-speed spacecraft. By the time Cheng Xin came out again, thousands of years had passed.

Yun Tianming and Ai AA lived happily on that planet all their lives.

However, after Yun Tianming died, he left Cheng Xin a gift.

It was a small world created by the Trisolarans (the small world was given such good things, and the Trisolarans were really good to him). There was a sophon in it, which meant that there was a supercomputer and an independent ecosystem. The system and environment are also okay. Cheng Xin could live in it forever, until the end of the universe, and forever. Well, there was a man beside Cheng Xin. This man was someone who had escaped from the earth before and met Yun Tianming's star. He also lived in the small world with Cheng Xin.

How romantic, I give you a star when you are alive, bring hope to your world, and leave you a universe when you die.

But later, there were more and more small worlds, and more and more of the matter in the universe was taken away by the small worlds, because the Creator designed the universe to be no more, no less, just enough to expand and contract, completing a cycle. But at this time, because the matter was taken away, the universe was out of balance and could not shrink. The highest civilization shouted that all small worlds should voluntarily return all matter to ensure the existence of the universe.

Cheng Xin's sense of responsibility exploded and she demolished the small world, leaving only a 5KG fish tank and fish in the empty world. Even these two people came out.

Hey, Yun Tianming also left a spaceship for Cheng Xin in the small world, which his old father couldn't worry about enough. I don’t even want to say anything else. I’ve blinded Yun Tianming in vain.

See you next time. I’ll think about what to talk about next time...

Today I’m talking about Luo Ji. The fourth wallfacer.

First of all, let’s talk about this person. It can be said that he is a complete scumbag and a bastard in the academic world.

Luo Ji was originally engaged in cosmic astronomy, but because he felt that it was difficult to break through in that field, there was only so much cake, and he couldn't even get into the hot spots. So I started to study sociology. After all, sociology is messy. Just plagiarize a little bit and piece it together to form a paper.

Luo Ji had countless girlfriends. Even when his girlfriend died in a car accident, Luo Ji didn't remember her name.

However, when it comes to girlfriends, there is one who is, I don’t know, his number, a fairly famous writer. They were almost at the point of discussing marriage. One day, Luo Ji and his girlfriend were talking about characters in novels. His girlfriend asked Luo Ji to give her a birthday gift. This gift was the character in the novel that Luo Ji conceived himself. The character is the most beautiful thing in Luo Ji's heart.

So out of boredom, Luo Ji began to imagine what this character looked like, what kind of appearance he wore, what kind of clothes he wore, what kind of personality he had, and even what kind of family, education, and tone of voice this character should have.

In the end, Luo Ji began to lose control. He couldn't imagine it anymore, because this novel character came to life in his consciousness. This character began to speak and do things on his own, and began to appear in his world, accompanying him in classes, traveling with him, and accompanying him. He eats. Luo Ji found that he had fallen deeply in love with this fictional character. It was love in the true sense, a strong emotion that he had not experienced in any of his girlfriends.

Later, Luo Ji went to see a psychiatrist.

The psychiatrist told Luo Ji, don't try to escape that person, and don't deliberately forget, it's useless, just let nature take its course. Every man has a white moonlight.

As time passed slowly, that character no longer appeared in the world of logic, but it lived in his heart forever. In the corner of Luo Ji's heart, there was a place with white snow mountains behind it. There is a green lake in front, and there is a villa on the shore of the lake. The figure is sitting by the fireplace in the villa. The yellow wall fire casts a soft light on her face. She always wears light clothes, but I always wear a bright-colored accessory, sometimes a red scarf, sometimes a yellow glove. When Luo Ji thought of her, she would smile lightly or simply say a few words to him.

Luo Ji lived like this, wandering in the real world, aimless and confused.

Until Luo Ji became a wall-facer.

Even Luo Ji himself didn't know why. However, the World Government told him that because Luo Ji was the only person named to be killed by Trisolaris, his girlfriend's car accident was actually directed at Luo Ji.

Luo Ji didn't even understand why Trisolaris wanted to kill him. However, logic is a person who doesn't think about things that he can't figure out. It doesn't matter if the sky falls, he just wants to live a nourishing life.

Therefore, with this identity, you can control the world's resources without explaining the reasons. One of Luo Ji's ideas came to life.

Luo Ji asked the World Government to find the place in his heart and the girl in his heart and provide it to him. The reason was that this was part of the Wall-Facing Plan.

So, Luo Ji really lived in that house, with the snow-capped mountains at his back and the lake in front of him. Even the villa looked the way he liked, as well as the girl. Her name was Zhuang Yan and she was a student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. She was exactly the same as he had imagined. Her appearance and personality were all the way he liked. This girl even said that Luo Ji had imagined What she said.

Luo Ji was satisfied. At a time when the world was in chaos, the world government was preparing for war, and the quality of people's lives was drastically reduced due to the war of resistance, Luo Ji was living a carefree life in this paradise, under the strict protection of the world government, marrying a wife and having children. consider. Everything is because of the reasons he said. These are all part of the wall-facing plan.

To be honest, I understand this a little bit. As a working-class person, if I were a Wallfacer, I would want to do the same thing. It will take several centuries for the Trisolarans to arrive. I am still young, so I will enjoy my life first. talk later. It's not like I want to be the Wallfacer, you're the one who forced me to be one, so I can only take it as it comes. The premise is that I have to think carefully about whether I really don't know anything. It would be a sin if I delay something important. However, Luo Ji probably has no interest in saving humanity at all.

After a few years, Luo Ji's children will all be gone, and the World Government finally can't stand it anymore and urges him to work quickly. His wife Zhuang Yan also went to hibernate with her children for unknown reasons (many people here say that Zhuang Yan is an agent of the World Government, because even if the world is very big, it is impossible to find someone whose appearance and personality are exactly the same as imagined) People come here. The purpose of coming here is to restrict Luo Ji's behavior in love, and force him to work when necessary. I personally agree with this point of view. However, no matter what Zhuang Yan's original intention was, when Zhuang Yan decided to come to see Luo Ji, Yan has already staked her life on it. Regardless of Zhuang Yan's innocence and lack of understanding of the world, whether she is real or pretending, this woman is worthy of respect).

Luo Ji finally began to face reality, and began to seriously consider which part of his life had deviated from the scope of normal people, and which points deserved the Trisolaran people's attention, and even wanted to eliminate him.

Luo Ji opened up his imagination again. To be honest, most people did not have this ability. (When it comes to resurrecting a person in my imagination, I actually tried what Luo Ji did. I tried to bring my favorite male star into my imagination and began to conceive of everything about him. According to the way I like it, then the next day, just three days in a row, I can hardly stand it. Fortunately, I am intermittent and only imagine when I have free time. If I think about this character all day long What I'm doing, I guess, is really going crazy. It's not a matter of whether the character will survive. If you think about it for a month or a year, this person will definitely survive, but you will definitely have a schizophrenia. This work requires a very strong mind. Concentration, mental strength and ability to be distracted. In short, the author is strongly recommended to mark this paragraph in this book and do not imitate it).

Then Luo Ji thought that he had met Ye Wenjie a long time ago. Because Luo Ji and Ye Wenjie's daughters were classmates, this meeting was normal. Ye Wenjie once had a conversation with him. The content of the conversation seemed very ordinary at the time. She asked him what he was doing. After learning about his shift from astronomy to sociology, he suggested that he start a new field, which could be called cosmic sociology. And told him that if he has no direction, he can try to think about what the world should look like if the universe is full of civilization, just like a society.

Then, Luo Ji suddenly realized that cosmic sociology must be the root of everything happening now.

Luo Ji couldn't write, look up information, or discuss with others, because the Trisolaran people would know that he could only sit and put all his reasoning in his head.

Finally, as Luo Ji struggled in the abyss of thought again and again, he realized the darkness and terror of cosmic sociology.

There are two basic axioms here. One is that survival is the first need of civilization, and the other is that civilization continues to grow and expand, but the total amount of matter in the universe remains unchanged.

There is also a chain of suspicion. Because of the limitations of communication in the universe. A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization is benevolent or malicious towards itself. A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization thinks it is benevolent or malicious. A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization will attack itself.

Just like a blind man, deep in the forest, with a wooden stick and a gun in his hand. Once there is any disturbance, guess what he will do. It must be to stop exploring with the wooden stick, stay quiet, and move towards the location of the sound. Fire a shot.

Therefore, Luo Ji summarized the laws of this universe, which he called the "Laws of the Dark Forest."

Once a civilization is detected by another civilization, a connection is established between the two worlds. According to the great reversible law of detection, this detection is two-way. If you see a world, this world must also be able to It's only a matter of time before I see you. This exposed civilization will definitely be eliminated. Even if you encounter a well-intentioned discoverer, how can you guarantee that the endless civilizations in the universe are all well-intentioned? As long as there is a malicious or lazy civilization, this exposed civilization It's impossible for them to exist anymore. An advanced civilization may not necessarily be the most powerful, but it must be the best at hiding.

Some things happened in the meantime. For example, in order to verify his point of view, Luo Ji used the star energy of the sun to transmit the coordinates of another galaxy into the universe. It turned out that decades later, this galaxy was indeed attacked by a high-energy particle and was Completely destroyed. For example, in order to prevent people on Earth from sending coordinates, the Trisolarans blocked the sun with water droplets (what water droplets are will be discussed later). For example, the Trisolarans used a genetic virus to attack Luo Ji, but Luo Ji went into emergency hibernation and was cured in later generations. .

In the end, no matter how things turned out, Luo Ji could not avoid activating the Dark Forest Deterrence.

Just when the vanguard of the Trisolaran fleet - the water droplet - arrived in the solar system, the water droplet is a smart weapon built by the Trisolarans based on strong interaction. The surface is absolutely smooth and there are no flaws in the whole. It is named after its shape like a water droplet. But it was such a small thing that effortlessly defeated the human space fleet without firing any weapons, just by impact. Even water droplets can penetrate the earth directly.

At this moment, Luo Ji threatened the Trisolarans and told them not to invade the Earth, otherwise they would send the coordinates of the Trisolaran planet into the universe, but this would also expose the Earth. The nuclear bombs left by Wallfacer B at that time were used, as well as the newly developed anti-trigger device.

There is a very interesting little plot here, because when Luo Ji threatened, he was next to Ye Wenjie's tomb, in his own tomb that had just been dug, and his physical condition was very poor. The Trisolaran was still very worried at the time. He didn't know if Luo Ji was still okay or if he should see a doctor first to stabilize him so that he wouldn't go into shock if he got excited, so he sent the coordinates.

Therefore, if the earth and the Trisolaran world are two pyramids, then Luo Ji is the person on the top of these two inverted pyramids. He holds a sword and maintains the delicate balance between the two worlds by himself. He is called the Sword Bearer.

After the deterrence was established, the World Government and the Three-Body Problem were both afraid. If they were not careful, both worlds would be destroyed. So we studied Luo Ji together to see the possibility of him destroying two worlds, and came to the conclusion that if there was an abnormality, there was a greater than 90% chance that Luo Ji would activate the device in this way.

On this basis, the earth and the Trisolaran world began a long period of friendly technological and cultural exchanges.

During this period, the people on earth always thought that the Trisolarans would not have real transmission technology. They would only reveal the tip of the iceberg and let the people on earth study it themselves. Unexpectedly, the Trisolarans not only taught the Earthlings the technology completely, but also patiently guided them, and even complained about why the Earthlings were so slow to understand such basic technology.

The Earth also exported its own art and culture to Trisolaris, and then discovered that the Trisolarans learned very well. They did not stumble like Earth's Renaissance, but started running directly. The creations in our culture have been very effective. Its connotation and artistic value have also inspired a long-dormant cultural boom on earth.

All in all, everything is going great.

Well, you thought it was a perfect ending, but you were wrong.

Next time we will talk about Luo Ji’s success and Earth’s failure.

Let’s talk about it this time. After the Trisolaran fleet sets off, Sophon arrives, and humans already know that the earth is about to be occupied, the world government is in line with the matter of dealing with alien invasion.

I think the concept in "The Three-Body Problem" is correct. When fighting an enemy that is impossible to defeat, any conventional operation will not work. Only by winning by surprise and using dangerous moves can you turn defeat into victory or at least reduce losses.

Let’s talk about conventional strategies first. The more aggressive ones are to develop technology, arm the army, build space fleets, and create weapons of mass destruction. The more conservative ones are to build bunkers and look for land where aliens can escape.

These world governments have actively prepared and done a good job. The space fleet is very powerful, and the flying speed of the spacecraft is even faster than the Trisolaran fleet. Our weapons are also very advanced, including fusion, quantum and light weapons. The final bunker plan was also well done. In order to prevent us from being affected when the sun was destroyed, the world government built space cities on several planets in the solar system that are far away from the sun. Humanity has also completed the relocation and lives a happy life. happiness.

However, everything is a fool's errand. When disaster strikes, these are like pieces of paper falling into the sea of ​​fire. This little defense can only make this piece of paper called a wet piece of paper at best.

Next, let’s talk about that dangerous trick to win by surprise, the wall-facing plan.

The reason for the implementation of the Wall-Facing Project is that if there is anything in the Anthropocene that can escape the surveillance of sophons, it is only human thoughts, and Trisolarans do not have those twists and turns. So the world government started this plan. They chose four people to be Wallfacers. A, B, C and Luo Ji. This A, B, C, we know that the names don’t mean much, they are all foreigners (mainly because I didn’t remember their names).

The government gives them the greatest authority to control the world's resources and do anything without having to explain it to anyone. From the moment they become Wallfacers, they must tell a big lie to deceive all the Earthlings and Trisolarans. The more bizarre and incomprehensible their behavior is, the closer they will be to success, and they can confuse the Trisolarans and save the Earth. plan, of course only they themselves know this plan.

After the Trisolarans learned about humanity's wall-facing plan through Sophon, they arranged wall-breakers for three of the four people except Luo Ji. These wall-breakers are members of the Trisolaran organization, and they may be ordinary or very powerful. , the purpose of the Wall Breakers is to figure out the Wall Facers' final plan by studying their life stories and their behaviors, so as to carry out the attack.

It needs to be mentioned here that Sophon cannot carry out attacks. Sophon does not have this ability. First of all, it is too small and will be very fragile even if it is unfolded. Moreover, the world government has not discovered that Sophon has the ability to manipulate human equipment or the human body.

Let’s talk about Wallfacer A first. He is the former Secretary of Defense of the United States and the former military leader of this most powerful country. The world government has some expectations for him.

Wallfacer A's apparent plan is to use a weapon of mass destruction - ball lightning. I think it should be called super ball lightning. Let's do some popular science. Ball lightning is very harmful. It can fly in the air and can be driven by driving. The door and window entered the room and exploded when hitting obstacles. The ball lightning that Wallfacer A is studying is more lethal, has a wider range, and can spread faster.

But this weapon needs to be released at close range, which will sacrifice our soldiers. For this reason, Wallfacer A needs to create an assault army with firm belief, spirit of sacrifice, and willingness to die.

However, he failed. He never found this army because people had been settled for too long and no longer had that ruthlessness. He even found the leader of the terrorist organization and needed their soldiers, but the leader said that their soldiers would not have that belief, because what supported their soldiers was deep-seated hatred. Without hatred, there would be no courage.

At this time, his wall breaker appeared, which was the fastest to be broken (haha, there are some things I dare not say).

Wallbreaker could tell at a glance that Wallfacer A didn't want to use ball lightning, everything was his misleading operation. Wallfacer A actually wants to create a ghost army. Even if he is looking for those soldiers with a spirit of sacrifice, he also wants to kill them all and turn them into a quantum state, that is, people who are both alive and dead, just like Schrödinger's cat. The army is invincible and can attack and dodge attacks. However, Wallfacer A did not find this army, so he wanted to use ball lightning to kill the Earth fleet, hoping that some of those who had become quantum states would have conscience and could continue to attack the Trisolaran fleet.

But in the end, the Wallbreaker also said that their master didn't care about ball lightning or quantum states. He came here and just told the Wallfacer to stop messing around and wait quietly for death. Because the technological power of the Trisolarans is not a little higher than that of the Earth, this thing is not attractive at all. As we have said before, normal operation is not possible. No matter how strong a one-year-old child is, can he defeat an adult physically?

Later, Wallfacer A committed suicide. After the plan failed, was he really waiting for death quietly?

Uh...his wall breaker escaped...and continued to work for the Trisolaran organization.

Wallfacer B is the former president of Venezuela. The world government values ​​him because he can lead his weak country to successfully resist the invasion of the United States. The government hopes that he can lead the earth to resist Trisolaris.

Wallfacer B wanted to make a nuclear bomb, a billion-ton nuclear bomb. Because the technical power was not enough at this time, he hibernated and would be awakened when the technology was mature. When he woke up many years later, he began this part of the work.

The World Government also agreed. When it was almost created, Wallfacer B also conducted an experiment on Mercury and blew up a huge crater on Mercury. But at this moment, his wall breaker also appeared at the right time.

Experiments on Mercury exposed Wallfacer B's plans. In fact, he wanted to blow up Mercury completely, hoping that the remnants of Mercury would be swallowed up by the sun, causing a solar wind, and then the solar wind would swallow up all the planets orbiting the sun. Transform the solar system into a sun-only system. In fact, it is a devilish idea that you can’t even think about what I can’t get.

Of course he failed. After the Wallbreaker revealed his plan, it was impossible for the World Government to let him continue. This was a crime against humanity. But the Wallbreaker also said that the Lord doesn’t care. Because it is impossible to create enough numbers to destroy Mercury before the Lord arrives. To be honest, I don’t think it’s possible. He underestimates the power of the land. Being able to exist in the universe for hundreds of millions of years and survive the impact of various meteors and meteorites, among other things, is to resist the attack.

However, Wallfacer B's plan is still very useful, because he provided some ideas and assistance for the fourth Wallfacer, Luo Ji. Let's talk about it later.

After Wall Facer B's plan failed, the World Government wanted to arrest him for crimes against humanity, but Wall Facer B claimed that he was carrying an anti-trigger device. As long as his body indicators are abnormal, the explosion of the nuclear bomb will be triggered, and the earth and mankind can be wiped out now. The World Government didn't dare to take any chances, so they let him go and went home in exile.

What's funny is that when he returned to his motherland with excitement, he looked at the people supporting him under the plane and saw the people excitedly rushing towards him. Instead of flowers and embraces, what he was waiting for was raindrops thrown at him. of stones and fists. People don’t care about those, what kind of counter-triggers, if they don’t understand, they will know that you are going to blow up the earth and kill us. Then Wallfacer B died, a very desolate and ridiculous death. The counter-trigger was just a false excuse, and nothing happened at all.

Hey, I have said it all, technology is not enough, it is okay to work on it yourself and improve your life, but it is not enough to fight against the Trisolaran or destroy the galaxy. The sophons are locked up and the Trisolaran is watching. You can't hide it, and you can't succeed.

When the Wallbreaker shattered Wallfacer B's plan, he was almost strangled to death by him, but was stopped. Later, the Wallbreaker was arrested by the World Government.

Then talk about Wallfacer C. A brain science expert, he and his wife are both brain scientists.

Because the computer speed was not good at that time, he also hibernated and would be awakened after the computer speed increased.

Later, humans replaced quality with quantity. The sophon blockade caused computer development to encounter a bottleneck, but it did not say that we would not be allowed to build super many computers. Human beings have used computers to simulate brain waves, and we can roughly see the human thinking mechanism clearly.

Wallfacer C's idea is that the only advantage of human beings is thinking, and there is still a lot of room for the development of our brains. Since we can't, our descendants should be able to. As long as the brain continues to develop, our descendants may be able to figure out how to remove sophons. Blockade, the way to defeat the Trisolarans.

Therefore, he and his wife have been using the world's resources to conduct brain science research. Later, they actually researched it, but it was just a by-product.

This by-product is to touch a designated area of ​​the human brain through computer instructions, which can plant an indestructible belief in the person's brain. Even if the water is poisonous, the person will completely believe it. (He also personally tested it. , but was later cured by a psychiatrist. Only the truth that everyone knows can be cured when it is misled, and things that are obviously swinging left and right, once they are forced to one side by external forces, will be unshakable and indestructible. ).

This operation is called "thought stamp"

Because humans generally lacked confidence in fighting against the Three-Body Problem at that time, the World Government later decided that ideological stamps could be used voluntarily among military personnel, and only one kind of thought could be planted, which was the belief of victory. After all, tampering with thoughts is also taboo, as it will make a person no longer the same person, which is against ethics.

What happened after that was beyond his control, so he and his wife chose to hibernate, hoping to wake up before the Trisolarans were about to arrive and see the achievements of mankind.

More than two hundred years later, they woke up.

However, the ideological stamp has been cancelled. Those canceled by humans themselves are no longer allowed to be used. The reason is as mentioned before. After all, it is against ethics. As humans develop, they value their own freedom and equality more.

But at this time, his wall breaker also appeared.

That's his wife.

It’s terrifying to think about it here. During his hibernation period, his wife was awake alone, studying technology, studying him, thinking about what he had done and what he said over and over again. She even stayed up day and night and just watched him fall asleep. He hoped to see what this man was thinking through his head. They were really like bedfellows, and I was terrified in the middle of the night.

His wife said that in fact, Wallfacer C is an extremely determined escapeist, and the ideological stamp is not a by-product, but his true thoughts, because what is imprinted by the ideological stamp is not a belief in victory at all, but escape, the great escape. , try your best to escape to the universe.

Wallfacer C believes that human beings cannot fight against the Trisolarans at all. They are existences that we cannot defeat. No matter how smart people are, they are still human beings. The Trisolarans don't even know if they are human beings. Therefore, when your enemy is too powerful, the best way is to run away and escape to the depths of the universe to seek a chance of survival. The antelopes that gather together are the easiest to be caught. On the contrary, the antelopes that scatter and run for their lives can avoid the hunters, continue the civilization of the earth, and prevent the human species from becoming extinct.

His wife found the difference from the correct procedure among the tens of thousands of ideological stamps. It was just a difference between a plus and minus sign, which determined the difference in the concepts of victory and defeat in war.

And those who have been imprinted with their thoughts, because they are loyal escapees, will instinctively cover up their thoughts and try to make themselves look like soldiers with a belief in victory, so as to gain a higher status and facilitate He fled on his own, and later, after the government banned ideological branding, there were still five branding machines in the hands of escapeists. No one knew who they were or how many people they branded in private. Therefore, no one knows to what extent the escapeists have penetrated into the army and the country.

Wallfacer C's plan was ended by humans themselves. Later, he served as a liaison between Luo Ji and the World Government for a while, but then there was no news from him, and the author did not write about him again. And his wife committed suicide in the Japanese way of caesarean section. Why she committed suicide will actually be more convincing when combined with Luo Ji. I will only mention here that it may be because she failed to successfully break Wallfacer C's plan, allowing this plan to take root and sprout in 200 years. I don't know to what extent it has developed. Those who committed suicide out of shame for the Lord.

As for Luo Ji, this fourth wall-facer has too much to say. Let’s talk about it separately next time...

To be continued…

It took 1,956 minutes to read "The Three-Body Problem" without missing a word, at a speed of 112 words per minute.

The author of "The Three-Body Problem", Liu Cixin, graduated in 1985 and is an engineer in a power plant. Things to remember are:

①Liu Cixin is the first Asian writer to win the Hugo Award.

② "Three-Body" has a permanent and sole copyright owner in the world - the Three-Body Universe.

③ Facebook founder Zalberg said on social networks that he was also reading "The Three-Body Problem" by Liu Cixin.

As for Liu Cixin's other works, I haven't had a chance to read them yet, so I won't introduce them for now. However, after reading "The Three-Body Problem", I don't want to read other science fiction novels for a short time. I need to calm down my shocked heart.

(*The following contains slight spoilers, just a little bit, don’t mind it*)

There are three complete works of "The Three-Body Problem": "The Three-Body Problem", "The Three-Body Problem", "The Dark Forest" and "The Three-Body Problem".

The first "Three Body" uses the perspective of nanoscientist Wang Miao to tell the background and spread out the world picture. There is a big proposition in it, whether human beings can achieve moral improvement and sublimation of humanity without relying on external forces. .

The second part, "Three-Body 2: Dark Forest," takes the cosmic sociologist Luo Ji as the protagonist, and he begins to battle wits and courage with the Trisolarans. It has a strong sense of immersion. After watching it, I feel that I can single-handedly move the two worlds together. I can too.

The third part, "Three-Body 3: The Immortality of Death," unfolds from the perspective of engineer Cheng Xin, taking you to see the end of the earth and the universe. The big themes include love and reason, public belief, and living in sorrow and dying in happiness. The universe is a one-way journey. The journey is still the cycle of life. There is a very classic saying here: "Give time to civilization, not time to civilization."

I highly recommend this book. Who is this person, you ask? It's me, an ordinary engineering girl. I majored in engineering, not science, so I can only understand the scientific terms and content in "The Three-Body Problem". I don't know whether it is true or false. Please don't mistake the majors in it. When you use knowledge to popularize it, be careful not to mislead others or make jokes. If someone can compare the scientific content in it with the actual technology, I think it is very interesting and worth reading. I'm lazy, just sit here and wait for what's ready.

After reading "The Three-Body Problem", you will feel that the joy and happiness in our ordinary lives are hard-won. You will sigh that a person's thoughts can fly so freely, and you will like or dislike a certain character in the book according to your personality. Human nature in "The Three-Body Problem" is not complicated. Everything that happens is justified. It is because it is justified that people feel that one day the Trisolaran Fleet will really appear in our lives or the lives of our descendants. I hope you enjoy reading.

First, let’s talk about the background of the story: During the Cultural Revolution, there was a family member named Ye.

Their father and mother are both professors in the physics department of the university. The difference is that my father is very reverent and persistent in academics. He has the belief of the intellectuals at that time in the truth, and he also feels a sacred sense of responsibility for the teaching profession. My mother was very smart, even too smart. My grandfather once thought that my mother’s intelligence was no longer suitable for basic physics research. My grandfather felt that basic physics needed to be done by stupid people. My mother was keenly aware of the political tide of the times. She even went ahead and changed the names of foreign people, symbols, and theorems in the textbooks to Chinese names. She also avoided content involving foreign capitalist countries in class.

Therefore, you can imagine the ending of this family when the background of the Cultural Revolution emerged. My father was defeated by his former students and geniuses, and he died noble and unyielding at the criticism meeting. My mother barely survived by slandering her father and slandering academic science. However, because her mother's family was bourgeois, this made her just He just saved his life. No matter how radical he was, he never stood in the red camp.

Here comes the key point. The child in this family, Ye Wenjie, is the female. She is the trigger for the story of "Three-Body" and the origin of all events. Everything is from her to the Three-Body World, a world far away from the earth. It started when a very nearby alien civilization sent an invitation to Earth.

I will tell you the rest of the story separately later.

He Wenjie's idea is very straightforward. She believes that human nature is evil. Although there are morals and legal constraints, although in most cases, in happy and peaceful times, human beings are willing to show the good side of their nature and everyone can live happily, but Once something happens, the evil side of human nature is like a swamp, surging in and corroding everything.

She believes that it is impossible for human beings to improve their moral level and get rid of evil thoughts by their own strength, just like people cannot lift themselves up from the ground by pulling out their own hair. Therefore, she did not hesitate to announce the words to the Trisolaran world: "Please come quickly and save everyone. The earth has been destroyed by humans."

Uh..., having said so much, it's all background.

Entering the topic, Tomoko blocks it.

At this time, the Trisolarans, or to be precise, their first fleet, have set out from their world and are coming to the earth, but due to the distance, they have to travel three to four hundred years. Based on the current development speed of Earth's civilization, Trisolaris estimates that by the time they arrive, Earth's civilization will have developed to the point where they can defeat them. Then, wouldn't they be heading straight for death after coming all the way?

So the Trisolarans sent two sophons to the earth. How the sophons came about, I will tell you separately later. You see, there are really many things in this "Three-Body", which is super interesting. These two sophons, the intellectual wisdom, are actually intelligent protons, which are the qualities of protons in atoms and molecules.

Sophons have two functions. First, they can monitor scientific experiments on proton collisions done by humans. Because if we want scientific progress, we must enter the microscopic world of matter, such as nanomaterials. Collision experiments are to study individual particles in the microscopic world of matter. The correlation between them is regular. Sophons detect that we are doing experiments and replace the proton we are colliding with in the experiment, producing erroneous experimental results and thus misleading the direction and development of human scientific research. Because sophons run at the speed of light, it can be said that no matter how much experimental equipment is built, they cannot escape it, and it is simply impossible for humans to summarize anything from so many experimental results that are incorrect, correct, and mixed.

The second function is surveillance, which monitors everything in human life at the speed of light, making it easier to eliminate dangerous factors and understand the dynamics of the human world.

This move of the Trisolaran can be said to kill people, capture the thief and capture the king, once and for all. As a result, the frontier of human science has been paralyzed, and there is no way. This has led many scientists to feel that the world is hopeless and commit suicide (some also commit suicide).

The ideas of those geniuses are actually easy to understand. Science is the place where all the meaning of their lives and all their beautiful imaginations are stored. Just like our comfort zone, when science is dead, they feel that there is no meaning of existence, so they just go with science. .

The incident led to police intervention and a series of subsequent incidents.

Let’s talk about it next time…

Today I will talk about the story of the Three-Body Organization, the Three-Body World and the Three-Body Game. This part of the story is very novel and worth telling. The story is relatively long, and many events are crowded together. Let me go through it...

Let’s talk about the Trisolaran organization first.

Last time we talked about Ye Wenjie, many years have passed since Ye Wenjie sent invitation letters to the Trisolarans. Ye Wenjie has become a quiet and peaceful old lady. Let me mention here, before Sophon arrived on earth, it took a long time for us to have a call with the Trisolarans, 4-5-6-7-8 years. After Tomoko arrived, it became relatively instant messaging.

I don't know why Ye Wenjie became such a kind person. She neither feels successful nor excited about what she has done, nor does she feel guilty or self-blame. She acts as if her life's mission has been completed, lives a normal life, and shows the greatest kindness to others. Strangely enough, I thought she would become aloof or at least indifferent to worldly matters.

The old lady Ye Wenjie is now the leader of the Trisolaris organization. She is just the spiritual leader. She does not hold any specific responsibilities. The actual leader is a foreigner, a scientist who studies plants and animals. I can’t remember his name because he It's cannon fodder.

This cannon fodder is actually quite touching. He is very rich. His father owns a multinational oil company, which he later inherited. But he felt particularly sad about the species that were about to become extinct in the world. He once came to the Greater Khingan Mountains in China and planted trees alone on a barren mountain, just to give a passing bird that was about to become extinct a place to rest and breed.

But you also know that in those red years, the farmers and the government at the foot of the mountain cut down all the trees and sold them for money after he finished planting them. Although he could have bought the whole area with money and planted as many trees as he wanted, his heart was broken by human nature. When he no longer had any belief in living, Ye Wenjie told him about the Trisolaris, so he came back to life and established the Trisolaris organization. On the surface, like Ye Wenjie, he hoped that the Trisolarans could reshape the earth. Civilization, but in fact, in my heart, I hope that the Trisolarans will wipe out all the people on earth.

In the Trisolaran organization, they call the Trisolarans their masters. This organization is basically made up of the professional elites, scientists and upper-class figures in society. The organization is roughly divided into two factions. One is the Adventist faction represented by the cannon fodder. I hope The Trisolarans wiped out the Earthlings and took charge of the Earth to continue the civilization of the Lord. One faction is the salvation sect, hoping that the Trisolarans and the Earthlings can live harmoniously together. They worship the Trisolaran technology and the Trisolaran world. Ye Wenjie is Which faction did not say.

Speaking of the three-body world

Here is a scientific theory. I will briefly explain it based on my thoughts. You can understand it. It is quite interesting.

If there is a ball in an infinite empty space, and nothing in this space acts on the ball, and the ball does not act on other things, then the ball will hang there forever. There, it's like there's only one point in the entire universe, like death.

Now add another ball. There is mutual gravity between the two balls. After you give them an initial movement, they will rotate, but it is just a different form of rotation. No matter how you give them, they will eventually become A kind of movement that continues forever, just like the sun and the earth. From a cosmic perspective, this is another kind of death, a dance of death. There is nothing new in it. A simple mathematical model can explain it. But for our planet, this is the prerequisite for the existence of our life and the hotbed for the birth of all civilizations.

Now, if we add another ball to this space and give it an initial force, you will find that they move, and they are extremely complicated and unorganized. This is the three-body world.

There are three suns in Trisolaris, and Trisolaris is a small planet in this three-solar system. You can imagine the complexity of the Trisolaran world. Day and night are irregular, the sun is far and near, and the temperature is extremely cold and hot.

In this very extreme planet, civilization was still born - the Trisolaran civilization. They were born and died here, growing over and over again. Even so, this civilization has developed to a level more advanced than the earth.

In order to survive, Trisolarans have evolved an ability, dehydration. When two suns in the sky are far away or close, which means severe cold and heat, they will concentrate on dehydration, turn it into a thin piece like fiber, and then store it in In the dry warehouse, when the climate is suitable, they will be soaked intensively and live again. If the three suns go far away or get close, don't worry, this civilization will be completely destroyed, the planet will be covered by magma or frozen for a long time, and we can only wait a long time before a new civilization is born.

The way Trisolarans reproduce is also different from that on Earth. Their males and females will fuse together and then split into several small Trisolarans. The small Trisolarans will inherit some of their parents' memories and will not have the infancy. Just survive.

Another interesting point is that Trisolarans communicate directly through brain waves, so their thinking is transparent. They cannot lie or conspire. Even in war, there are some blocking tactics, if you directly ask the opponent's general, you can basically get the correct answer. But one advantage is that it is fast. We have to use our heads to control our mouths, and there is also a limit on the speed of speech. Trisolarans do not have this limit. Instant communication is a massive amount of information.

The reason why the Trisolarans came to Earth is not only because of the three suns, but also because their suns can eat people. Their sun will expand and contract at a certain stage. When it expands, it will swallow up the planets it sweeps. According to the Trisolaran people, there used to be many planets in the Trisolaran world, but now there are not many left. The Trisolarans calculated that the next time was not far away and it was almost their turn. This time it was not the restart of civilization, but the complete disappearance of the entire planet. So they have to find another way out.

Finally, let’s briefly talk about the three-body game

This game was developed by the Trisolaran Organization. It simulates the natural scene of the Trisolaran world. It is simulated based on imagination. We don’t know what it really looks like. It has an ecosystem of three suns built into it. Players enter the game through game equipment. You can really feel the cold and heat inside. To be honest, I have been waiting for this kind of game for half my life, and I don’t know if I will be able to play it in this life.

The Trisolaran Organization has two purposes for developing this game. One is to recruit members of the organization, because the game is very simple. The more you study the operating rules of the Trisolaran World in the game, the more you can feel the depth and breadth of the Trisolaran World. Strongly attracts people with high IQs.

The second purpose is also to hope that these geniuses who enter the game can use this simulator to summarize the movement patterns of the three suns, thereby helping their masters escape from the sea of ​​suffering and solve the survival problem of the Trisolaran world.

That's it. I'll see if I can pick out some of the more interesting characters in "The Three-Body Problem" to talk to you next time.

Bye-Bye……
