After proving that the problem of three-body solution is unsolvable, the mysterious scientist and "cold beauty" Shen Yufei died.
I don't know why, when I saw this after watching the drama, I suddenly felt an inexplicable melancholy and sentimentality in my heart.
And this melancholy diluted the relaxed and happy scene brought by Wei Cheng, a fellow villager in Shandong.
01 Shen Yufei's death is too different from the original
Shen Yufei in this episode, after seeing the unsolvable three-body problem in the game, became another person, changing his previous cold, strong, persistent, ruthless, and proud image, becoming desperate, helpless, weak, depressed, and even a little numb, did not do any resistance and counterattack, and let Pan Han shoot himself.
This is very different from the original book of "The Three-Body Problem", why is the script arranged this way?
Regarding Shen Yufei's death, the original book describes the scene at that time as follows: That night was also at this time, Wang Miao saw Shen Yufei playing "The Three-Body Problem" in this room - now, she is lying flat in the middle of the room, the two bullet holes in her chest are still gushing blood, the third bullet penetrates through the center of her left eyebrow, making her entire face paste in blood, not far from her, a pistol soaked in blood...
Dashi looked around, saw several bullet holes in the wall, glanced at the scattered shells on the ground, and said, "The other side fired five shots and hit three; She fired two shots, but they missed. "Then crouch down and examine the body with a male colleague.
Xiao Xu was still standing far away, and secretly glanced at Wei Cheng, who was standing next to her, and Da Shi also glanced up at him.
There was a hint of shock on Wei Cheng's face, a hint of sadness, but it was only a hint, his inherent wood was still not broken, compared to Wang Miao, he was much calmer.
I have no objection to making changes to the original book, as long as such changes make the plot more reasonable and develop more smoothly, it is understandable.
When the character of Mu Xing appeared in episode 5, I was also surprised, and after watching it, I also bloodied the love line between Mu Xing and Shi Qiang, and interpreted the plot of Mu Xing breaking into the three-body organization and being chased and killed by Pan Han.
(In the trailer of the subsequent episodes, Mu Xing was really murdered and killed by Pan Han in a car accident).
Through the description in the novel "The Three-Body Problem", it is not difficult to see that Shen Yufei died in a gun fight with Pan Han.
But why did the TV series version make such a big change?
Originally, after Shen Yufei's death, Wei Cheng handed over the three-body mathematical model and the original document CD to Shi Qiang, but in the TV series, the order was reversed, it was Shen Yufei who was killed after seeing the results of Wei Cheng's calculus, why did the script make such changes?
02 Shen Yufei's death, what is the purpose of such a change in the drama version?
Shen Yufei was originally a core member of the Advent faction of the three-body organization, of course, she knew that the program of the Adventist faction was to eliminate the earth's humans, but Shen Yufei was a firm rescuer in her heart, and her goal was to save her "master", the three-body system, and also save the earth's humans.
When Shen Yufei in the TV series, through the calculation results of her "husband" Wei Cheng, knew that the three-body problem was unsolvable, she knew that the three-body invasion of the earth was unstoppable.
And she knows how powerful the technology of the trisolarans is, and the technology of the earthlings cannot be resisted at all, so that the three-body invaders + adventists will bring destruction to the human beings on the earth!
The goal of saving the three-body and the earth at the same time has failed, plus the universe shown in the "Three-Body Problem" game is so vast and infinite, the planets are ruthlessly torn, devoured and destroyed, and human beings are indeed so small and helpless!
All beliefs collapsed, all goals could not be achieved, all efforts and expectations were in vain, and Pan Han's heart fell into deep despair.
The play says that she is more desperate than Yang Dong!
In this case, she chose not to resist and let Pan Han shoot herself.
It is not so much that Shen Yufei died under Pan Han's gun, but that she chose to commit suicide by taking advantage of Pan Han's shooting!
Pan Han, even a former "colleague" who has collapsed in despair will not let go!
If Wei Cheng hadn't calculated the three-body problem so quickly, as long as Wei Cheng was still calculating, Shen Yufei would have hope in her heart, and this hope would support her to go down and continue to fight with Pan Han and the other Advent factions.
Unexpectedly, our fellow Shandong, a mathematical genius, and her "husband" Wei Cheng, did not realize this.
He quickly calculated the result, and this result was: there is no solution to the three-body problem!
At this point, the sky is falling!
Shen Yufei collapsed, it can also be said that Wei Cheng in the TV series indirectly killed his "wife"!
In the TV series, Shen Yufei went offline in this way, which I didn't expect.
Perhaps, Shen Yufei was wrong from the beginning, in the life and death battle between the Trisolarans and the earthlings, is the third route of the salvation program feasible?
When the invasion of the Trisolarans was inevitable, for the earthlings, in addition to the following two paths:
The first is to become the "ball traitor" of the earth like the Adventists in the three-body organization.
The second is to be a staunch earth resistance faction and fight to the death against the trisolarans.
Will there be any other option?
If according to the original film, Shen Yufei was killed by Pan Han in the fight, then she will become the saint and banner of the salvation faction, she is the embodiment of the salvation faction's program, her dream is still there, her soul is still there, and many earthlings will continue to choose to take the road of the salvation faction when facing the invasion of the trisolarans.
According to the TV script, Shen Yufei did not choose any resistance in despair, even if she voluntarily chose to commit suicide by being shot and killed by Pan Han, you can see how cruel the Adventists are.
For Shen Yufei, who has broken down mentally, Pan Han did not let go, which has objectively announced that the program of the salvation faction (including the program of the surviving faction) will not work.
This means that there is no third way or middle way, facing the invasion of the Trisolarans, there is no alternative to betrayal and resistance, destruction and survival, and no other ending.
The path of the salvationists does not work, the path of the survivors does not work, and both routes are bankrupt.
It doesn't matter if you think you're harmless to humans and animals, the point is that your opponents don't think so, they think that the Middle Way faction will switch to the Earth Resistance faction, so you have to kill.
Surrender or resistance? Survival or destruction?
Lose your illusions and get ready to fight!
Either beat the tiger to death or be eaten by the tiger!
Perhaps, this is why Shen Yufei's death has changed so much.
03 Shen Yufei's marriage to Wei Cheng
The Si people have gone, Fang Trace is still faintly seen, and after 20 episodes, there is no Shen Yufei.
Shen Yufei and Wei Cheng's marriage, just like Wei Cheng said: for the convenience of each other, let's get married.
They seem to have no love for each other, no care for each other, no mutual understanding, and Wei Cheng also said that the only topic of contact and discussion is the three-body problem.
What unites them is only a three-body mathematical problem, and when the solution of the three-body no solution appears, their relationship ends there.
Two top experts on the three-body problem, one of them - Shen Yufei went offline like this, one stick and two melons, Shen Yufei is gone, it is estimated that there will be no Wei Cheng's scene later.
Wei Cheng, how much humorous happiness has brought us.
Alas! Without Shen Yufei, there will be no Wei Cheng in the next 10 episodes, without Wei Cheng's big living treasure, who will bring us this humorous Shandong dialect, and who will bring us that comedy humorous scene?
It is estimated that in the future plot, there will not be many humorous lines in the great history.
Mu Xing, also about to die, the journalist is to find out the truth for the people!
The 30-episode series, with 10 more, is over.
The trisolarans are sharpening their knives, what should we earthlings do? Ready to surrender? Ready to be killed?
Or actively sharpen your knives and prepare for battle?
In the emotional family part of "The Three-Body Problem", Ye Wenjie and Yang Weining, Shen Yufei and Wei Cheng, have different experiences and similar sorrows and joys.
Only Li Yao and Wang Miao brought some comfort to the audience.
Although Wang Miao has experienced fear and vacillation, she has always firmly stood on the side of human beings on earth, and her wife Li Yao has always silently supported dedication.
In episode 17, Wang Miao went home at ten o'clock and left at five o'clock, Li Yao got up early to prepare her luggage, and did not forget to bring food, there is a wife like this, Wang Miaofu asked for it!
