[Spoiler] [Extreme personal opinion] [Dodge for those who are uncomfortable]

The main story of the film:

A group of aliens, in the process of evolution, they have generalized memory and thinking, and the entire society and technology have stopped developing.

They need to find a way to become personal again.

Then they found that human beings have a very strong personality (it is estimated that only Bai Zuo was found), and they kidnapped a group of humans to the base in the starry sky, trying to revise their evolutionary path by studying humans.

Their research is based on a hypothesis: "Personality is different from memory."

The experimental steps are to use black technology to modify human memory, select a part of human beings to change their identities and memories every day, and study the specificity of each human through the trajectory of these human beings reliving in a new memory environment.

If it can be confirmed that different memories produce different personalities, it can be generalized to their own groups, moving from generalization back to individualization.

This is their theory. In the actual experiment, the aliens injected with human memory all died... So the experiment continues, they are looking for a safe memory until they find someone... the protagonist.

...

This seems to be true in theory, but it was Bai Zuo who made this film...

Bai Zuo's argument is: individuality is innate, it is human nature; the commonality is distortion, dictatorship, and anti-humanity... With reference to their various ideas in the Cold War ideology, and the face that still promotes democratic freedom everywhere.

How could Bai Zuo endure the reversal of human nature just by changing his memory?

Bai Zuo Ke all believe in the Lord... They believe that people are born with a unique personality, and they equate it with the "soul". If you modify the memory, you can modify the personality (soul), isn't it blaspheming the Lord? This is absolutely impossible!

Therefore, the tone of this film has long been set: even if I don't know you and don't have you in my memory, I will still fall in love with you...

Do it or do it to do that...

People under middle age may have some "resonance" with the so-called "idea" of this film, because there are many things in this age group that have not yet figured out; ...Even if I watched it, I pouted as a result: watch the next one, or go out for a walk.

In the last hundred years, no newer philosophical thoughts have appeared, and all the viewpoints have been exhausted by the ancients.

These so-called "ideas", which have become more sensationalized after the change of form (from text to film and television), is to make cold rice in a different way. It is still the cold rice of the ancients hundreds of thousands of years ago.

...

The premise for aliens to modify their memory is their ability: modulation.

The architecture, environment, and human work and rest of the entire base are all changed by aliens through their own modulation abilities and the amplification of the core modules of the base.

Aliens can arbitrarily modulate (manipulate) the material and immaterial of the entire city, change the building structure, control the wakefulness and sleep of human beings, and rewrite human memory.

A certain human in the film may have evolved a special ability (modulation) unique to aliens because he rewritten his memory too many times (too many injections).

And he is also out of the control of the city core module and will not be in a coma at 12 o'clock (the time when the aliens change their memories)...

Because of this, the aliens pay special attention to him: since this human being can evolve supernatural powers, it shows that he is already a successful experiment. As long as you refer to this sample well, you can safely promote his memory model to your own group. .

...

But as a film made by Bai Zuo, how can one endure the loss of personal privacy and freedom of personality?

So the protagonist begins the road of rebellion, and finally kills the aliens and controls the entire city... It's over.

...

At the end, the doctor asked the protagonist, what do you want to do after you have this power?

The protagonist says: Control everything.

The doctor showed a meaningful smile...

Ah. Ah.

This is Bai Zuo's real face, and it's finally exposed.
