Sky City’s inspiration and story structure mainly come from "Gulliver's Travels" written by British writer Swift, in which Laputa is a floating island. According to Gulliver’s explanation: "Laputa is actually quasi lap outed. The correct meaning of lap is "sunlight dancing on the sea", and quasi is "wings", but I don’t want to impose my own meaning on it. Judgment." The
following is the sight of Gulliver seeing the city in the sky: "I walked along the edge of the rock for a while; the weather is very good, the sky is clear, the sun is scorching, and the golden light is shining. I must turn my body sideways. On the other side, it didn’t hurt my face. At this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and I felt something was wrong, because the situation was different because a cloud floating from the sky was not the same as usual. I turned around. , I saw a huge opaque object floating in mid-air, flying towards the island where I was. The object seemed to be about two miles high and obscured the sun for about six to seven minutes, but it didn’t let it go. I felt the air became cooler, and the sky did not become darker. It was like standing in a valley with the sun back. As the thing got closer and closer to where I was, I saw it as a solid , The bottom is smooth, shining under the reflection of the sea below. I stood at a height about two hundred yards from the sea and watched the huge object gradually descend, almost reaching a position parallel to me, less than halfway away from me. Miles. I took out the pocket binoculars and looked carefully at some people standing on the edge of the thing. They seemed to be busy going up and down. The edge seemed to be slanted, but I couldn't tell what those people were doing?"
This floating island, which was supposed to be the essence of the wisdom of the human machine era, is what Miyazaki's picture looks like? I first saw an old manor castle abandoned by mankind for a long time. The dense vegetation grew unscrupulously and prospered. This hard and cold old castle was covered with a green coat, which made me immediately feel that this is something that can be made. I am close to where I am at ease. Then, I saw the robot rescuing the bird, silently, but from time to time it made a cute "beep bang bang" sound. Following in the footsteps of the robots guarding this floating island, I see that the core of this floating island is actually a towering tree! What ancient castle city is all the accessories attached to the body of this towering tree, nothing more than storage.
The scene that touched me the most happened right after that. This scene is the one in the picture at the beginning of my film review. This steel body, heartless, soulless, artificial intelligence that only imitates human emotions, gently picked up a small flower, and was in a slender robotic hand, offering the small flower to the little girl who had just arrived. Perhaps the robot knows that this little girl is the long-lost princess of the Laputa family, and it expresses its welcome to the princess in such a simple and sincere way. I don't understand why this scene is so touching? Every time I see artificial intelligence that is purer and more infatuating than humans in film and television works, I will be sighed. These robots from human hands that only imitate human emotions may be because they cannot understand and cannot replicate the contradictory and complex emotions of human beings. The innocence, loyalty, and courage they show are just touching.
The next scene revealed the fate of these robots. When one robot runs out of energy, the next one will wake up. These energy-exhausted robots fell one by one next to the torso of the big tree. As the years passed, they had been wrapped in the big tree and became one body of the big tree. Don’t you think this scene is bleak, yet incomparably pure and beautiful? Don't you think that the scene of the little bird and the little squirrel chasing and jumping on the broad shoulders of the robot is moving? On one side is the artificial intelligence from human hands. Their duty is to serve human beings. On the other side are all creatures and creatures that are regarded as lower animals by humans. How many times better!
Hayao Miyazaki conveyed his message to me time and time again in his film and television works: "Awe of nature is the only lasting way for mankind." As an environmental engineer, I have been working longer and longer, and I have witnessed more and more environmental protection truths. After that, I felt more and more that the message that Hayao Miyazaki gave me was this: "The destiny of mankind has been predestined by its nature, and the earth would be better without human beings."
" Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and save the planet." These are high-sounding. The words from those politicians who write and slog "Save the Earth", I will listen to them as a joke now.
Simply tell a story about solar panels. Solar panels are crystalline silicon panels installed on the top of houses that collect solar energy. In order to encourage families to switch to this kind of solar panels, the Canadian government has provided tax reduction and exemption policies for every family that has switched. Do you know where their monetary encouragement comes from? This kind of crystalline silicon solar panels, at least as far as I know, are all produced in China. First, the Canadian government and related companies forcefully lower prices and vigorously exploit Chinese workers. Secondly, this is also the most critical. The production process of this kind of solar panels is very harmful to the environment and the workers themselves. Canada, including related companies in many Western countries, not only squeezes out the labor costs of Chinese workers, but also completely ignores the physical damage to Chinese workers and the depletion of China's environment. More than just turning a blind eye, when I talked with the "elites" in their industry, I even felt that they think they are smart and economically minded. Chinese workers are not considered human beings, and the Chinese environment has nothing to do with them! This is what an environmental engineer, an environmental fighter, and my colleague did! Can you imagine?
Every solar crystalline silicon panel here owes a Chinese environmental debt!
Not to mention the e-waste and domestic waste shipped to China by ship, the grinning sneer faces that saw domestic waste arriving in Chinese ports in the news; not to mention the fast-growing forests, those fast-growing forests. , Is the most direct culprit of the drought in Southwest this year! It is no longer necessary to mention that in the early days of reform and opening up, Japanese disposable chopstick manufacturers knew that what they did was far greater than they needed. However, they successively established several chopstick production plants in Northeast China, allowing them to compete with each other and kill each other and lower prices. To the lowest. The last two winners survive. In April this year, when the sky was full of cherry blossoms, Japan was hit by a severe sandstorm, and public opinion condemned China's desertification in a single brain. I am not arbitrarily pushing all the responsibility for China's desertification to Japan, but in this, those former chopstick factories are responsible. Japan’s principle is that if it doesn’t smash the trees of its own country, it squanders the trees of China as much as it wants. It does not fish in its own country’s inland waters, so it fishes on the high seas, kills whales, and kills dolphins.
I dare not say anything about the climate of other countries. The climate of Canada this year, because of my work, has come into contact with a lot of data from the National Climate Center, and I am qualified to comment on it. Canada's climate this year, from west to east, is extremely unusual!
When you pass on pollution to developing and underdeveloped countries year after year, including now and in the future, you human-like beast philanthropists and environmentalists, don’t you know that the ecology is one, your lips and teeth are cold? ? Do you really think you can take care of yourself?
Well, I guess you can’t understand the extensive and profound Chinese idioms, so I will quote a sentence from "Infernal Affairs" to you: "Come out and do it, and you will pay it back sooner or later." The English is: "Whether you are fucking or being fucked, you will finally be fucked."
Adam’s intensively involved in the research and development of the "Curiosity" rover, if not unexpected, will be launched by NASA next year. This rover, which carries the good wishes of mankind and the infinite thirst for knowledge and exploration, will further explore the surface signs and vital signs of Mars. I admire the exploration of the unknown! I have always longed for one day to be able to meet with the whole family, our future children, as a team of R&D pioneers, will be the first to embark on an extraterrestrial journey. If we could set foot on a planet like Pandora, what a wonderful experience it would be!
So if you really want to emigrate to Mars, or what other planets? Human beings have harmed the earth, should they extend their black hands to other planets?
If before the destruction of the earth, human beings have the ability to launch a spacecraft to go to another planet suitable for living creatures, regardless of whether there are intelligent creatures on this planet. So the passengers on this spacecraft, please don’t include humans, please bring a gene bank containing all other creatures on the earth, please bring flowers, birds, insects, fish, birds and beasts, please don’t destroy their genetic maps. Then, the task of driving the spacecraft and maintaining the gene bank in operation will be handed over to those faithful, simple, and brave artificial intelligence-robots, I believe they can complete the task more perfectly than humans! In "Castle in the Sky", isn't it?
Also bring the message that we humans passed to the unknown planet:
"Please cherish and treat these beautiful creatures kindly. This spaceship carries the salvation of our humanity."
This spaceship should be called salvation.
