For 3 years of the epidemic, Jia Zhangke did a variety show

No one thought that Jia Zhangke would host a science fiction program,

In the variety show "Don't answer",

He wears sunglasses and is in the space of simulation of the space cabin,

With Liu Cixin, Yin Yan, Xu Zhiyuan, etc.

More than 10 science and technology leaders,

Talk about high -tech hard core topics:

Interstellar travel, virtual lovers, brain interfaces, genetic modification ...

Jump back and forth between the perspective of technology and humanities,

Jia Zhangke can always capture

The unique perspective of "local Chinese science fiction "-

Is there any nostalgia for space immigrants?

Do the AI ​​robots at home have to get a hukou?

What if Cai Yuanpei's marriage requirements are entered into a large database?

And predicted the future movie model.

In July, an interview with Jia Zhangke in Beijing,

Talking about the near future science and technology society that runs at a high speed,

How can people still maintain dignity, heartbeat, regret,

And the aesthetics that never die.

Self -report: Jia Zhangke

Written article: Liu Yameng

Responsible editor: Ni Chujiao

Jia Zhangke's eyes were uncomfortable recently, and seeing the light easily shed tears

So I have been wearing sunglasses

▲

Holding his head and exclaiming, "Oh my god, scientists have stared at our emotions!"

I really did not expect that I would participate in the hosting of a science fiction conversation program, which was also a miracle that happened during the epidemic.

I am usually more interested in technology, but because I am busy filming, I don't have time. Now that the epidemic has been for three years, I have become a "laid -off old man". The film is not convenient. It is okay to do it at home. There is just this show called me.

I have a nickname "Section Chief", and they call me "Future Discovery Section Chief", of course, joking.

"The Last Director of the Earth"

Jia Zhangke and the robot argued due to kneading noodles

The 8 topics we talked about artificial intelligence, virtual actors, big data love, genetic modification, etc. In fact, I all know a fur, and I also bought a lot of high -tech books in advance. Later, the director told me that my person is a person who doesn't understand anything. Just chat with you, then I relax a lot.

Our scientists and guests all have a ability to sit there and expressed the knowledge of their lifetime research. It is expressed in simple words. People like me who have not passed the physical chemistry can also understand.

Every day is a process of getting new knowledge, it is very hi.

And my role is to find something that has happened in history, and do a connection with what is about to happen, so that most of the audiences who are "blind" like me understand what is happening in the scientific community.

Elon Musk's final conception of Mars City Base (overlooking picture)

For example, interstellar travel. I was shocked by the universe. About five or six years ago, I took the starry sky because of work. I took a night in the Gansu Desert. The image was completely shocked.

In delayed photography, you can see that the universe is particularly busy, and various meteors run around. It seems to have an inner order.

In such a vast universe, choosing a new planet to immigrate, it has mentioned a formal schedule of human beings, and it is likely to be realized in two years.

For example, Teacher Liu Cixin feels that the "market" has hopes to become a powerful internal driving force and make large -scale interstellar immigrants a reality. "Resources on the solar system can support 100,000 planets. , The mineral resources brought by the asteroid, the capital of the earth will have huge desires to capture these resources, so the space age will begin. "

The immigration group in Jia Zhangke's movie "The Old Man in the Mountains and Rivers" has a sense of wandering

There is a huge gap between the two generations

When I am thinking about interstellar travel, I will care more about the changes in people's psychological feelings. I think of the famous West Exit and Chuangtong in history. They are all immigrants.

The technological conditions must be different. I rushed to a carriage or walk around. Star Travel was a rocket, but why did people leave? After leaving, what changes will people's mental state changes? These are similar.

I am very curious, will space immigrants miss the earth? How do you miss the Fa?

Like my initial "nostalgia" experience, when I went to Beijing to study in college, I thought about it. It may be that space immigrants are not planted, and a kind of liquid will be full. The feeling of this taste will change.

▲

"Time delay" is the brutal barrier of interstellar emotional communication

It may be because the distance is too far away, like the "time delay" that Teacher Liu Cixin said, what you said on the planet, it was only received here for decades. Emotionally, it cannot be resonated, not a frequency.

I think the first generation of space immigrants may face more psychological problems. When humans go to space, are we still humans? This is not a nihile question for me.

In the movie "She", the actor and the operating system are in love

I see a data. There are 200 million users in Chinese dating websites. So many people, what is their purpose? I definitely want to meet online, and then meet, love, and live at home in reality, it will have a switch from virtual to reality. One episode is Professor Song Jiqiang. When we talk about big data love, it reminds me of our famous marriage person in China in the last century, Mr. Cai Yuanpei.

▲

Cai Yuanpei's marriage requirements

He posted a marriage notice in the newspaper, with 5 conditions: without foot binding, literacy, his wife can marry again after the husband died, the man did not marry, and the husband and wife could cancel the contract.

If you put it now, you can collect big data at these 5 o'clock, and then the world can find a matching lover for you.

Even now there are virtual boyfriends. As long as the computing power is strong, he may have surpassed the real boyfriend in all aspects of consideration and knowledge in all aspects.

Then I think there is something that cannot be done by big data, which is the caught in love.

For the first time, I realized that "love" was a girl in the front row of the classroom. One day, the sun was sprinkled on her hair and skin, making me suddenly produce a very instinctual feeling of being attracted.

When I was in middle school, the relationship between boys and girls, it was super language, it was completely at my eyes. I accidentally glanced at my eyes and glanced more.

Not only do real people have virtual lover

Both Ria and Zinn are virtual Internet celebrities, and they also fall in love

The algorithm is relatively pursuing a success rate. There are a few acres of land in your family, and there are several cows in his family. People who have matched the life are less unexpected.

But then Professor Song said that big data can also arrange a love ending love at the end of tragedy, even accidental encounters.

Maybe in an era of big data love, it still has romance inside it. My love experience from the agricultural era was spoken and wanted to try it.

In "The Final Director of the Earth", the robot becomes Jia Zhangke's personal housekeeper

Like online dating and virtual lovers, you may want to deal with loneliness. This is a very essential thing for humans.

In "The Final Director of the Earth", there is a home robot. If there is such flexibility in real life, I am willing to accept it to become my family, and I can give it a hukou.

But if the AI ​​people want to solve my loneliness, I may not choose to do so.

Lonely person under the aircraft

Science fiction painting from Simon Sthlenhag

A lone moment I once experienced, related to the aircraft.

In the early 1990s, I was on the list of college entrance examinations and did not find a job. I sent me to Taiyuan to study art. A strange world, the future is unknown.

In the early winter, I went to buy coal. I pushed the coal car and walked back. I walked through the gray five or six floors of Taiyuan. I kept walking. No one pays attention to you in this world. It is very lonely.

Suddenly, a helicopter flew over the sky, which was very low. From the top of my head, I couldn't forget that scene. I don't know why the aircraft worsen my loneliness. I always wanted to make a movie in this scene.

People of my age can feel the beauty of this loneliness. I can still use it to create, so I will not give up easily.

Thrilling VR world

From the perspective of a director, I think of how we make movies in the future?

I think the cinema will disappear, it is the trend of "pan -filmization". Now we use western films, martial arts films, comedy films ... These types are too narrow. In the future, we will live directly in the virtual world.

After the development of VR technology, the sensor may be implanted under our retina or eyelashes. Everyone has two screens, a left eye, a right eye, and the movie becomes part of our body.

Very good, the movie has developed a lot.

Qian Xuesen likes the translation of "spiritual realm", thinking that "Chinese flavor is very strong"

In fact, in the 1990s, Mr. Qian Xuesen was already studying VR, and he also translated into "Virtual Reality" as "Spirit". His translation comes from the concept of Buddhism. "Yuan Universe" should be more accurate.

Of course, everyone is very emotional about the current theater screening, because it has a history of more than 100 years, but the film technology will not stop and there is no way to stop it.

"Jurassic Park" has opened the era of digital special effects movies

Technology is a gene of a movie, and the corresponding iteration will greatly expand the film's ability.

Like I like Speyerberg's "Jurassic Park" very much, the turning works in the history of the film use the digital technology to present a very realistic imagination world. It is an era when special effects are becoming mature. It happened when learning movies.

Prior to this, science fiction movies were used with a fake wall, a pseudo -board, and using visual errors to create fantasy effects. After the digital special effects came in, it broadened the ability of the film to show the world. This change is leapfrog.

After all, whether it is 2D or 3D movies, it is originally a virtual technology.

And our filmmakers are creating, and the future may not be narrative, or it can be spatial. You can build a city or a village. At that time, the word "filmmaker" may be gone. maker". ▲

The best film "Cosmic Exploration and Editorial Department" of Pingyao Film Festival last year

Belongs to soft science fiction theme

Jia Zhangke was filming at the shooting scene of "Always Traveling to the Sea"

Under new technical conditions, I think this kind of movie is also very beautiful. The distant past and distant futures have not been achieved, one has passed away, and these two worlds can only be reproduced through film technology. This is the charm of unparalleled film.

If one day I suddenly have a good science fiction story, I may also take a picture.

At present, our Pingyao Film Exhibition is very welcome to science fiction films. Last year, the award -winning was a soft science fiction movie called "The Editorial Department of the Universe". "Two clouds", we have been paying attention to this aspect.

Stills of the movie "Shell Motor Team", the heroine is receiving mechanical transformation

So when technology never stops, how to avoid negative effects?

For example, there are always people who can't adapt. I had a person's congress proposal two years ago. What should people do not even have a smartphone?

Of course, many departments are now introducing relevant policies. The entire society is aware of this problem, so the vulnerable groups need to continue to pay attention.

Nowadays, the brain interface is also very hot. We once discussed "whether we are willing to use digital twin technology to make ourselves eternal". I feel a little scared.

Human beings have always had the eternal desire. Qin Shihuang has such a fantasy. Everyone in "Journey to the West" must eat Tang monk meat, which is also such a desire.

But the cornerstone of human philosophy is based on death, just like Camus said, "There is only one true serious philosophical problem, that is, suicide." If the eternal life is born, the internal drive forces of human progress will also change fundamental changes. I As a cultural worker, it is impossible to imagine it.

People are still obsessed with jumpy to middle age

I think people are the creators, the most delicate design. I hope to maintain my thinking and action ability. If eternal life is coming, I will not accept its intervention in my body.

The aging is not terrible. Accept the changes and age of your body frankly. Every day is happy, and it is enough to me.

I made a full program, and the most surprising thing was that almost all scientists and guests were convinced of the fact that science was irreversible.

In other words, wherever science goes, where our lives change, we do not change with our subjective will. This shocks me.

Professor Li Di, who studies Microsoft Xiaobing, said: "People can fight as an individual, but as a society cannot be confrontable." Society always goes to maximize efficiency.

When we do this show, we hope to help everyone prepare for the future. Some people always think about these things in advance.
