Chapter 379 Ten Unsolved Mysteries in the World
The completion of "Inception" not only did not weaken the discussion, but instead increased a lot. The discussion on the last gyro almost reached its peak.
More and more people came to hear the news. After they finished the previous chapters, they all devoted themselves to the Internet discussion. What problem do they want to express in this last sentence?
People who understand or don’t understand join in the exploration, and even read the novel again in order to find their own arguments. There are all kinds of opinions, and everyone can’t stand it.
"Lin Han, you, a big cheat, disappeared after you have distributed the chapter. If you have the ability to tell me whether this is a dream or a reality!"
"I'll just let it go. Can you stop being so mysterious? My head cannot support my own thinking."
"Mom asked me why I was kneeling down and read novels. I knelt down for Lin Da. Please come back when I have time, can I explain it?"
"Is this the official series that forced readers to death? My head is blown up, who can help me burn a clear version of the finale?"
"You idiots are so obviously back to reality. They have completed their mission on the plane. Saito also fulfilled his promise to help him go home. Don't be suspicious because of Lin Han's intentional misleading!"
Various online analyses have been released, especially those who are good at psychology. Many readers even caught science fiction writers and asked whether the final gyro was stopped or not. This is their obsession and they must know a result.
After reading the novel seriously, a netizen named "Black Feather Crow" posted a post in the Hanlin Academy: "The strongest analytical emperor in history appears, this is not a dream, the wedding ring reveals the truth!"
"When I saw the ending of Inception, I felt the malice from Lin Han. He wanted to use this open ending to make us fall into a dispute. I reviewed the novel five times to find any clues that could tell Cobb if he was dreaming. Please listen to me one by one below.
First of all, I would like to give a tip to the sloppy newbie who reads the book. The gyro is not Cobb's totem, but his wife Mel. Cobb's totem is a wedding ring, and anyone's totem must be unique and cannot be touched by others. Mel has passed away, so Cobb uses the gyro to determine whether it is a dream.
In which scenes below, Cobb is wearing a wedding ring. The first is the first chapter. Cobb and Arthur wanted to persuade Saito to enter his consciousness to protect him in the Japanese palace. However, when they arrived in the small apartment in the riot city, Cobb still wore a wedding ring. But when they woke up on the high-speed train, when Cobb called his children in the hotel, Cobb did not wear a wedding ring. This is the difference between dreams and reality.
When Saito commissioned Cobb and the other two to implant their target characters, Cobb did not wear a wedding ring when he found Ariadni at the French University of Architecture, but when he came to Ariadni's dream, he put it on. When Ariadni was frightened by the dream, he woke up from the studio, the wedding ring on Cobb's hand disappeared.
This is not a movie, this is a novel description. Did you not see any of Lin Han’s obvious description? If you don’t care about the plot, why do you repeatedly mention whether the wedding ring is worn?
Let's skip the plot of committing crimes in the dream of the target person. When he completed the mission on the plane, he had empty hands. When Cobb passed through the terminal and reunited with his family, he still did not wear a ring. Isn't this prompt obvious enough?
That's the reality, guys!"
The author of this post quickly had a large group of supporters. Sometimes they knew that this idea was just difficult to express in their own language and words. Now that they saw that others were consistent with their own ideas, they were even more supportive!
"After reading the author's analysis, I feel that it is necessary to read the novel carefully again. This time I will read it carefully and support the author!"
"At first, I thought Cobb was in a dream, but after reading the poster's analysis, I felt that the facts should be like this. Lin Han wanted to explore the true meaning of reality and dreams, so I prefer that he finally returned to reality."
"Premium owner! This should be the most perfect analysis, which also solves all doubts. The real key item is the ring, and the gyro is just a surface totem. The explicit totem + invisible ring = distinguish between reality and dreams!"
"The author's analysis is too complicated. I was completely dizzy after reading it. It looks very awesome anyway."
"In the novel, Lin Han just designed a framework, and left many gaps. Every reader is one of the participants in the dream, and it makes sense no matter how you say it. But I'm on the side of reality!"
"I still can't accept using rings to judge reality and dreams, but thank you for your hard work, I hope there will be more exciting analysis."
"I think it's reasonable to use a ring to explain it, momo."
However, many rebutters immediately came to this post, "The owner only uses rings to judge reality and dreams, and Cobb recalled the scene of his wife jumping off the building, and Cobb also brought a wedding ring there."
"The question is if Cobb himself didn't know that he was in a dream? If he thought he was in reality, he would naturally not wear a wedding ring, because he knew that he was in a dream when he wore a wedding ring. Could this be that others occasionally implanted his thoughts and made what he wanted to happen the most?"
"No, since it's back to reality, why did Lin Da almost not change the words and sentences of Cobb's children? Cobb has been not home for a long time. Can't his children grow up? Who will explain the child's problem?"
...
As "Inception" is becoming increasingly popular, a craze of analysis is surging, and many people have bold speculations and unexpected interpretations of dreams, and various controversies are coming one after another.
Of course, the most famous one is the discussion of the ending. Is this a dream or a reality?
The marketing account, which is not serious about the excitement, saw the business opportunities here, and one of the marketing accounts launched a voting post: "I just finished watching "Inception" that countless people praised, and we don't understand. What's going on with the ending? Lin Han didn't come to give the readers an explanation. Let's make a vote! a The protagonist returns to reality; b All this is just a dream; c I'll just look at it and don't speak."
Without any surprise, this small voting post was regarded as a battlefield for fighting by both sides, and a steady stream of readers joined in it, and even some third-tier stars came to vote and forward it to gain popularity!
Who made the open ending of "Inception" the most popular topic on the Internet in the past two days? It is impossible for the Navy Company to spend a lot of effort to surpass it. Even if it uses all the zombie accounts of several companies, it will be useless.
Among these votes, there are many people who think that the protagonist returns to reality. Among the voting results of more than 70,000 people, more than 60% of people think this is a dream, and a small group of people actually chose to make soy sauce!
However, the ending is not the only controversial point. There is another debate about the ending, that is, whether the gyroscope can distinguish between dreams and reality!
The mainstream saying is that gyroscopes can distinguish between dreams and reality. Readers do not trust the totem of gyroscopes so much. Every dream invader has his own totem. Arthur's dice and Ariadni's chess have only been mentioned and have never appeared in novels.
What really appears in the novel is that the protagonist Cobb repeatedly uses gyros to distinguish between reality and dreams, not to mention that this gyro is obtained by him from his wife.
Because of the post from Hanlin Academy above, more and more netizens have a deeper interpretation of the plot, believing that the ring is the real totem!
There is also a debate about the fourth level of dreams. Is this Cobb's dream or the Lost Domain? Even Cobb and his wife Mel, who is the dreamer? They both entered the Lost Domain together. The wife committed suicide in reality. Perhaps Cobb was stimulated to become schizophrenia?
Once the brainstorm is opened, it can’t be stopped at all. More and more strange thoughts run out, and many readers of conspiracy theories even raised another question worth thinking about, who is the real target person!
According to the orthodox plot in the novel "Inception", Saito hired Cobb and his group to implant ideas for Fisher, a young heir of the competitor's company.
But once conspiracy theory is proposed, even "Journey to the West" will change its flavor. The entire Journey to the West is almost destroyed by some so-called interpretations and analysis, and even becomes the darkest novel in China.
The same is true for Inception. The painless person who is idle and has no work has proposed a "father-in-law conspiracy theory", believing that Cobb's father-in-law is a conspirator. Cobb once met Cobb in Paris and recommended his student Ariadney to Cobb as the new dreammaker.
Ariadni is a very talented dreammaker. She seemed free and easy in the process of learning to create dreams, even surpassing Cobb. However, she did not perform well in the final implantation of Fisher's thoughts, because she implanted the protagonist Cobb and implanted the idea of "the wife is dead, accepting reality". So Cobb happily returned home to see her children!
Various ideas emerged. Even Lin Han who experienced the grand occasion of "Inception" after its release, he had to admire the ideas of these readers. It was so awesome!
...
"Dear, what does this ending mean?" Chen Jiaxuan asked while driving. She also read the voting posts online and found out that Lin Han had used the ending to cheat so many people.
Lin Han didn't expect his girlfriend to fall down, and he shrugged and said, "There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand readers. Any ending is possible. Isn't this open ending just right?"
Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, of course you like the open ending and don't like it! Just like when you wrote about the last Earthling, you have to tell us what happened after hearing the knock on the door, otherwise how could you know!"
This is the resentment from readers. Lin Han smiled. What he should have said has been finished in the novel. At this time, readers should think about it themselves.
"Just because of your ending, many people are asking me now, and even your Weibo is in full swing. Fans have also blasted you a topic called asking Lin Han to explain and ask you to explain to them. Weibo also uses this topic as an article. Many reporters want to interview you, and I have two TV stations and one radio station invitation."
Lin Han has no suspense about who is the most popular writer this year. In addition, "Inception" is so popular, the media want to get the most recognized answer to the ending from Lin Han, so no matter how hard he has to lower his body to make an appointment for an exclusive interview.
However, Lin Han just got a thought, and he had nothing to tell the media, so he replied: "Stop it for me, you can't spoil readers in everything! Why do I need to fill in the hole I have dug with my skills? I have to let readers think about the novels themselves, but I can't help them."
Lin Han said this with confidence, just like an online joke. Why should I pay back the money I borrowed with my own ability?
"If you don't say anything else, is Cobb in reality or dream? It has been elected by netizens as one of the top ten unsolved mysteries in the world, and is ranked alongside Jing Tian's background!"
"This is my honor, and the world will remember me!" Lin Han said as he took out his cell phone. He was now heading to the cinema with Chen Jiaxuan to watch Hollywood blockbusters, but he never expected that Zhao Han actually called.
Lin Han said first: "Mr. Zhao, please call me and don't ask me about the ending, I have nothing to tell you!"
Who knew that Zhao Han on the other end of the phone was stunned and was not ready to ask this question. You reminded me, and I will ask you later after I finish talking about the main business."
"Oh? Then what's the matter to talk about?" Lin Han was confused and didn't talk about the plot with him. Could he talk about the royalties?
Zhao Han, deputy general manager of Renmin University Press, smiled and said, "I called to remind you, is "Inception" really over? Have you ever thought about writing a sequel, just like "The Three-Body Problem"? I think there are still many things to dig in the framework of the world you created, and it's a bit of a waste of just a hundred thousand words novel!"
Lin Han held his cell phone, shook his head and said, "There is no sequel to "Inception", don't worry."
Nowadays, if a novel is not written in a sequel, it seems difficult to sell money. Even "Harry Potter", "Song of Ice and Fire" and "Twilight" are all the leading series, and the money-making ability of a series of novels is far greater than that of ordinary single novels.
"Since there is no sequel, our publishing house will organize your manuscript now and prepare for publication. See if you want to add something so that you can attract readers to buy it."
"It is obvious that you can see novels for free on Weibo, why do readers still spend money to buy physical books? I think there are not many people who are willing to read them. If the book is published, the sales situation will probably not be great." Lin Han's view is a bit pessimistic. If the novel has not been published, there are not many endings, and now everyone can see them, who is willing to spend money in vain!
However, Li Han said confidently: "It's one thing to read for free, it's one thing to read with paper books. The sales of this book will never be bad. Do you want to make a bet with me?"
Chapter completed!
