The second episode came, the first episode of the information is actually quite a lot, but I only picked up some of the key points in the first episode of the explanation, because I saw eleven o'clock last night and began to write, and I wrote that it was sent in the morning at more than two o'clock.
In the first episode of the first season of the American drama "Base", the funds flowed in The Crispy Chest of Lee Pace...
It's only eight o'clock today, so this one can add a few details.
The opening scene revolves around a strange polygonal stereoscopic model, something in Sheldon's hand that he calls a prime radiant. I tried to find out what the mathematical meaning was, but it was obvious that my mathematical attainment was too low to see it.
I think the screenwriters are trying to show that the whole play revolves around a very powerful mathematical model, psychohistory.
I think it is necessary to explain what psychohistory really is. Psychohistory is a fictional doctrine of Asimov's own, a mixture of history, sociology, psychology, and statistics, used to count and predict the future activities of huge populations, and is used in the Base series to predict the fate of the Galactic Empire and the future of mankind, but not the individual.
Asimov borrowed the theory of electron clouds: in an electron cloud, the motion of a single electron cannot be described, but the motion of a large number of electrons can be described very precisely. The population of the Galactic Empire is in the hundreds of megabytes, reaching a statistical order of magnitude. But there are two prerequisites:
There cannot be a large number of research subjects who know that they are analytical samples of psychohistory, and it is necessary to ensure the randomness and spontaneity of the research subjects. Otherwise the variable grows.
In the book Base and Earth, another hypothetical premise appears: the object of study must be human [Homo sapiens], otherwise psychohistory can be regarded as invalid. Because of the emergence of a mutant species, psychohistory was once completely ineffective.
Okay, back to the American drama.
The first is Geldonic, in terms of the trailer and the current trend of the two episodes, this little girl should be the protagonist of this season. In the original work, Geldonic's hometown is a mathematician, not so backward in the play, and he himself is a high-achieving student in the mathematics department.
There's an interesting place where he has a set of seemingly esoteric gestures to unveil this meta-light body, and later he asks Gail, how many times did you use to activate the meta-light body? Gayle said twice.
Sheldon looked like a wow genius. In fact, this gesture is a fake analogue, and I don't see where the power is.
That's it? I think I can do it too, give me a try.
At this time, Sheldon gathered excellent mathematicians in various places to join the psychohistorical research team, and he made such a big publicity in order to attract the attention of the emperor.
If the clones of Cleon I in the play can achieve consciousness upload, then about 50 years ago, Sheldon was very familiar with the real body of The Real Creon I. That's why Sheldon was so righteous when he spoke to the current Clone Emperor.
However, the emperor also said that their Cloning policy had been in place for four centuries, and it could not be the same as in the original book, when Sheldon was the prime minister of Cleon I.
At the end of the previous season, Sheldon led 1,800 people in a starship from Chuantuo, the center of the Galaxy, to the terminal star five light-years away. Well, I looked at the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy is about 100,000 light-years, so 50,000 light-years are really on the edge, and the original has a location map to feel it.
The climate of this place is extreme, metals and minerals are scarce, and it is a wild area that has never been developed.
At the beginning of the second episode, the story is divided into two lines, the first line on the spaceship around Gayle and Sheldon, and the second line in Chuantuo, around the Emperor.
At the beginning of the story, the Queen of the Empire (I think it is the Queen) leads the troops to find the scientist who made the chip bomb for the terrorist attackers in the first episode. But thousands of suspects had been traced to nothing, and the emperor said that he could not do it, so he prostrated himself to Shetton's gang. The Queen did not recommend this.
After the explosion of the Star Bridge, 127,000 corpses were still orbiting Chuantuo, but the queen believed that follow-up rescue and reconstruction work should be carried out as a priority. The queen had been protecting Sheldon's men, not very deliberately, but she could reveal a few clues.
On the other side of the giant starship, Gayle is swimming with prime numbers on his back. Gail has a habit of memorizing prime numbers, and it has been more than ten thousand years, and prime numbers are still so popular.
And Richie and Gail have long been hooked up, doing some shameful things everywhere. With 54 months to go until the endpoint star lands, they are also using the simulator to simulate various dangerous environments, exercise their actual combat ability and emergency response.
In gayle and Sheldon's chat, we learned that according to the model prediction, the survival situation of more than a thousand people will not be too optimistic in the years after landing on the terminal star. But their seed bank also contains a large number of embryos.
Then, Gail found out she was pregnant.
In the original work, Rich was Sheldon's adopted son, that is, she was pregnant with Sheldon's grandson or granddaughter, and then she took out the fertilized egg, which should have been conceived outside the body.
It can be seen that there are already many people on the ship who are dissatisfied with Shelton, and they think that this migration plan will not succeed, at least these people on the ship will not survive much, and perhaps they are just death squads paving the way for the embryos.
This is similar to plana and planb in Interstellar.
Plan a is to save earthlings and unravel the equation of gravity. In fact, it has been solved by the heroine's father, but to achieve this equation conditions, you need data in the black hole, and if you want to get the black hole data, you need to see what singular point from the back.
So Professor Brand planned to abandon the Earthlings and go to another planet to build colonies with fertilized eggs.
Perhaps, Sheldon's exile plan also used this setting. Probably, I guess.
At the Starship meeting, Gayle asked the other MPs a question, if we get to the endpoint star, what rules should we first determine to follow, such as decimal? 12 decimal? Or 27? As we begin to preserve civilization, we also have to decide what will be forgotten. If there is no agreement on how to count, how else is the decision?
On the other side, the old Sheldon, his mathematical model seems to have encountered some difficulties, obviously he has encountered some difficulties that cannot be solved.
Here is also a brief dialogue about the past of Sheldon and Hitch, Both of Herton's parents have died, and when she was six years old, Sheldon met Hitch in the Rare Books Library, when he was about to steal a book to change the medicine for his injured father at work. After that, Sheldon adopted Riche, and Riche's father began to drink heavily, and it was clear that Riche did not like to talk about it.
On the other side of the river, this section simply shocked my jaw, the queen is a robot. It is also strange to say that since the emperor is a clone, it is natural that there is no need for a woman to pass on the lineage, but the emperor has always had a woman by his side.
If this person is a robot, then everything makes sense.
In the novel, after the beginning of the Galactic Age, only two humanoid robots have appeared. One was the first Prime Minister of Cleon I, Ji Daniel Oliva, also known as Dan Moscher; the other was Sheldon's wife, Dorse.
Here I think that the TV series combines the important tasks of the first "Base" and the fourth "Base Prequel", so Rui chi, which should have appeared in the prequel to the fourth part, also appeared in the TV series.
And this woman should be the prime minister of Cleon, Dan Mostral, or she also plays the role of queen. Because she's also babysitting the kids. But at least one thing is certain, this woman must be friendly.
Someone is always responsible for the terrorist attack, so Creon decides to execute the visitors' cronies and then attack the planets of Anakileon and Disbes.
The two representatives did not die, not only to witness the execution of their compatriots, but also to watch the live projection of the destruction of their own planet. The Emperor let them go and let them go back to the ruins of their own planet to witness the disaster. I think that's what leaves the groundwork for future rebellions.
The messengers were executed one by one, and the two living planets gradually fell into a dead silence. The Empire's military value still seems to be in its heyday. The special effects in this section are spectacular, and it is recommended to watch the original film.
Back on the starship, Gayle was swimming again counting prime numbers, and suddenly eh? Wrong number!?
Here's the second clue I mentioned in the previous episode, suspecting Gayle has telepathy.
Gail rushes out to find Ricci, who finds richte stabbing Sheldon to death. Sheldon collapsed in a pool of blood, his vital signs gone.
Then, she was arranged by Ruichi to be launched into the escape compartment and flew into space. End of the episode.
I am a little confused when I see this, in the novel, Sheldon should have died naturally at the age of 81. A vigorous funeral was also held.
I read a lot of film reviews, and many fans of the original were very dissatisfied, especially on the issue of political correctness. I think the original party should still be a little more tolerant.
The first is because the original work is really too long, it is really not easy to shoot, if according to the rhythm of the original work, passers-by can not enter the pit, the screenwriter must increase the contradiction to speed up the rhythm. If a drama is only made for fans, the audience is too small.
The second is that I took a look at the popularity of the major platforms, and it can be said that it is the best sci-fi adaptation of the lowest popular drama I have ever seen, and there is no one. So I think don't scold, or praise it, let more people understand this drama, and then chase the original can also be.
In addition, the show seems to have made a huge adaptation, and will speed up the pace much more, Severhadin, Hubermaro and Mule will all appear in this season, so don't worry, the back may be exciting.
Finally, whether Sheldon dies in episode 2 or not, he will be a god-like being who will guide everyone in the hereafter.
"In front of me, all around me, all I see is the future of humanity. Thirty thousand years of potential chaos, compressed into just one thousand years... That piece, which is getting brighter and brighter day by day, is the end star equation. And there, distorted beyond restoration, is Kawato's image. But I can see... Yes, a soft light, a steady light of hope... The end of the stars! —Harry Shelton
