Controversy

Even if Levi didn't say anything, the promotion of this movie would still be going on, for this movie can be said to be one of their cash cows. 

When the first movie was released, they had just collaborated with Levi on the release of "Rabe's Diary," and now, compared to that movie, the box office of Three-Body Problem made them look forward to it even more.

The last time Three-Body was released, Warner was still fighting against that movie at the box office, but this time, they took a hand in the distribution. They are also looking forward to what this 3D movie will look like.

And since the two big companies are working hard, the movie's promotion will naturally not be bad. In fact, ever since Levi's first promotional video was released, under the influence of publicity, the discussion on how the four Wallfacers should save humanity has never stopped.

Unity, courage to sacrifice, scientific and technological breakthroughs, and creating miracles - anyone can talk about these aspects, but how can we really do these things and truly play a role in resisting aliens? 

Not many people can speak out about these things.

Some people think scientific and technological progress is a good way, but how can science and technology progress without theoretical physics? This is also the biggest problem.

Of course, many people think of the viruses used in movies such as Independence Day or other fanciful ideas. 

For example, maybe aliens are not adapted to the virus on the Earth, and they all get sick and die when they come to the Earth. 

Or aliens encountered unexpected events in the universe and were directly destroyed... 

However, although these things look interesting, there are always some problems of underestimating alien intelligence. Is it really okay to shoot a movie like this? Many people think that filming like this is simply an insult to the IQ.

And some people think that using some strategies can achieve success. But what kind of strategy can influence aliens deep in the universe? This is also something people don't know.

And, most importantly, what are the plans of the four Wallfacers mentioned in the movie? The four human Wallfacers would definitely not simply reveal their plans to the aliens. It would be a shame not to deceive them - but how do they deceive people in their plans? 

This is what people have been thinking about.

How can we resist aliens whose technology is much higher than ours? This is what many people have been thinking about. 

Science fiction movies focus on science. According to science, civilizations with different scientific levels cannot resist higher civilizations. But if it is human beings who are facing destruction, how can we not consider this?

During the filming of the film, such discussions never stopped. Even movie fans spontaneously formed the natural and social science factions, arguing which could save humanity better.

And just when this debate is getting more and more heated. It was discovered that the second trailer of the movie had been released.

People quickly watched the trailer, hoping to find some new clues.

Different from the first trailer, the scene in this trailer is very different.

The first shot of the trailer is of a human coming out of the freezer. They looked at everything around them in confusion, unaware of anything. Time has passed quickly.

Obviously, this is no longer the era of the four Wallfacers three hundred years ago - people discovered. This seems to be three hundred years later.

"Three hundred years have passed, and the Trisolarans will arrive soon. However, three hundred years have been enough for our technological level to far surpass theirs. We have nothing to worry about at all. We will win this war."

As a voice introduced, what appears before people's eyes is a bizarre world scene. This world is already a world three hundred years in the future. Everything around seems to be a combination of high-tech and comic book worlds, full of strong science fiction colors and weird aesthetic styles, which surprises people.

Unexpectedly, the second trailer was so high-energy from the beginning.

As soon as the movie trailer started, it seemed to give the discussants a blow in the head. Could it be said that human beings have really achieved scientific and technological progress under the premise that physics is blocked? But how is all this done?

And a new question quickly emerged - is this really possible? Can people on Earth really defeat aliens without physics?

It's incredible. Could it be that natural science really won? If it is true, then it can only be said that the people on Earth are too cheating.

People are still hesitant, but at this time, the picture in the trailer has also changed. In order to welcome the envoys sent by the Trisolarans, the Earth Fleet was dispatched.

Groups of spaceships, star-studded fleets, and an astonishing number of spaceships are lined up in the cosmos. 

Compared with the majestic and spectacular scenes in the first film, which are all the result of the movement of celestial bodies, this time, humans themselves produce the spaceship, and the miracles created by humans are even more breathtaking.

Conquering the universe has always been one of humanity's dreams. How could people not be excited when seeing so many spaceships? But will these spaceships and the Trisolarans engage in a cosmic war? Would such a battle be extremely exciting?

The picture of space war has always attracted science fiction fans. How to fight in the universe and what a cosmic war will look like are also hot topics that people have been discussing. 

There is no shortage of scenes of cosmic wars in previous science fiction works, but will this war be any different from the previous ones? This is something that people are very concerned about.

And soon, their enemies also appeared in front of them. But unlike the human warships that dominated the entire universe with overpowering force, only one Trisolaran spacecraft appeared before them. This spaceship looks like a round drop of water and doesn't look like a fighting tool.

The human spacecraft captured it immediately, and scientists began studying it.

The first thing that attracted him was the smooth surface of the spacecraft.

"Magnify it a hundred times!"

"It's still absolutely smooth."

"Enlarge it ten times more."

"Still smooth."

"One hundred thousand times, one million times, ten million times!"

As the optical magnifying glass was magnified, it was tested again and again, but the surface of the water droplet was still extremely smooth.

In a kind of deathly silence, the physicist stopped talking, and the opening and closing of his mouth represented his shock and helplessness. Silence replaced the noise in front, and the camera once again showed the distant view of water droplets. This time, no one thought it was cute.

"They applied the strong interaction to the surface of the object." The physicist murmured. "They did it... They shot the bow and arrow to the moon."

Next, the water droplet began to glow, and it rushed straight into the sky. The human battleship in the movie, a small water droplet, fights against a group of spaceships.

As for the result, people no longer need to look any further: although only a small number of people know the result of the strong interaction acting on the surface of an object, more people are very clear about the technology that far exceeds human imagination. What will happen when faced with fragile human technology?

What happened to the Indians is known all over the world.

It seems that humanity has reversed the fate of humanity's defeat by relying on its own efforts for three hundred years, but this extremely cruel result tells people that this is still self-deception. Under the huge scientific gap, there is no possibility of coexistence between humans and aliens.

The small glimmer of hope at the beginning of the trailer was immediately extinguished.

Obviously, it is impossible to defeat aliens by relying on technological progress.

The camera turned again, and only five lonely spaceships were left in the cosmos.

On the spacecraft, looking at the scenes of spacecraft wreckage scattered across the universe, the person who expressed emotion was a Chinese commander.

"As early as the beginning of the Trisomy Crisis, the outcome and direction of this war have already deeply appeared in my mind. We have held many academic seminars, all of which deepened my impression. From the beginning, I have been very clear that what we want to do is to find a new way out for humanity. Now, it is time. We need to embark on an expedition and go to the edge of the universe."

If we say that the destruction of the Earth's technology by the Trisolarans previously aroused people's fear, then this passage will undoubtedly awaken the hope of mankind. The Earth has not completely lost hope. At least, there are still enough wise people who can see the future direction and know how to develop.

There is still hope for humanity. Even in the face of pressure from aliens, mankind has not been destroyed.

But does it mean that the Earth will be destroyed like this? This is, again, unacceptable.

In the shot that followed, Downey appeared again. The character he played stood in a cemetery, raised his head, and spoke into the void, "Tomoko, I know you are here. Come out now; I ask for negotiations with Trisolaris. You chose to say no, and you said no. The result is that we will be destroyed together."

The round ball appeared in front of him. The dialogue between the Trisolarans and the people on Earth has finally come true - it seems that it is the social science that will save humanity in the end.

But how will he protect the Earth? How to destroy the Trisolarans and the Ball-Throwing Man together is still unknown to people.

And the answers to all these are all in the movie.
