Original subtitles

Initially,

no one minded this disaster.

It's just a wildfire,

drought,

species extinction,

and disappearance of a city

until this disaster

became closely related

to everyone.

Listen,

you didn't need guns

in this place before.

You missed the good old days.

This street

wasn't this way.

It was...

The night market was great.

It was known as the Little Northeast of Africa.

Barbecue stalls were everywhere.

It's fine.

They're patrolling.

The kunga cakes were this thick.

There were 500,000 midges in a cake.

It was yummy.

Now, you can't even eat midges anymore.

We're here.

This is where they are.

Mr. Liu.

Mrs. Liu.

I brought Peiqiang to see you.

This kid is promising.

He passed our country's Reserve Astronauts examination.

Next, he's preparing to go to the moon.

He's training here now.

Don't worry.

I'll take good care of him.

Chief.

Is there really a Solar Crisis?

You'll be blind.

I guess so.

They're already fighting this way.

Anyway,

Earth will be swallowed up in 100 years

and the solar system will be destroyed in 300 years.

That's it.

What else can we do?

Slow down.

Are you ready to go to the moon?

Once you're there,

you'll be staying for 10 or 20 years.

That's great.

Our whole family

will be in the sky.

Anyway,

Earth isn't nice at all.

It's pretty nice just to be alive.

Silly kid.

Listen.

Hang in there.

Steadier!

Steady!

Did you see that?

That's the Test Engine 1 of the Moving Mountain Project.

We'll be done in less than six months.

Six months?

Can it be done in time?

Listen.

We can even build engines on the moon.

We don't even need people.

They're all automatically done, non-stop, quick.

As long as no one sabotages it,

six months is enough.

The sun

is rapidly aging.

It continues to expand.

A hundred years later,

the sun will expand

to engulf the entire Earth.

After 300 years,

the solar system will cease to exist.

In response to the Solar Crisis 100 years from now,

A United Earth Government was established

and dozens of crisis response plans were proposed.

To ensure that more people survive,

the Moving Mountain Project finally decided

to build 10,000 Earth Engines

to drive the Earth out of the solar system.

At the same time, three satellite engines were built

to exile the moon

and guarantee the smooth departure of Earth

from the moon's gravity.

However,

as the project progressed,

the difficulty and high cost of implementation

intensified the impact of the interest of all parties in the world.

Doubts,

oppositions,

and conflicts

are escalating day by day.

The crisis response plan

became the crisis itself.

The feasibility verification of the Mountain Moving Project

is of utmost urgency.

Okay, got it.

Please wait a moment.

Excuse me.

Do we know the number of attackers?

Sorry.

Currently, 127 people from 53 countries

were arrested.

Mike.

That is a bad idea.

The darkest hour

is always before dawn.

We suggest

continuing the construction

and withstanding all distractions and disruptions

to complete verification as soon as possible.

Don't forget.

We only have a 13-month window.

The sun

won't wait for us.

Qiangzi.

Listen.

The environment is very dangerous.

Do your best.

Don't date,

don't marry, don't have kids.

Don't worry, Chief.

I must roam space on behalf of mankind.

Fire.

"Han Duoduo."

Is Earth nice or what?

This thing can move.

It moves when you move.

Have you had breakfast?

Yes.

You'll vomit if you ate a lot.

What?

You'll get eliminated if you vomit later.

What?

This is your first training in the air.

Don't let your vomit block your windpipes.

Get lost if you vomit.

I won't perform CPR on you.

Hello.

I'm Han Duoduo.

Low Earth Orbit Healthcare major.

Hello.

Liu Peiqiang.

I am fine. Thank you.

As the Space Elevator ascends,

you'll be

- I'm annoyed. - at 9G gravitational force.

Earth won't go easy on you

just because you're trainees.

Check your anti-G suits.

Or your parents will end up in tears.

You're bad.

Breathe.

Pay attention to the frequency.

Scream your lungs out, kids.

You'll pass out within ten seconds.

The 90,000 km Space Elevator

is the tallest architecture in human history.

This is your starting point to the moon.

We're counting on you

to protect mankind's future.

These three won't wake up anytime soon.

During this one-month training,

they won't get much chance to sleep here.

Breathe through the chest.

Semi-closed slow breathing, twice as slow.

Activate the electromagnetic gun.

Lock on the target.

If your hit rate is less than 70%,

get lost at once.

Next.

Give up.

I want to get rid of half of you.

Prepare your weapons.

Congratulations, you two.

You passed the first exam.

You're now chosen to be Lunar Base astronaut trainees.

Actually, it's not important to roam space.

Giving flowers to the one you like is important.

You're so corny.

Another 15 degrees

and it's perfect.

Hi.

Flower delivery?

Who is it for?

Do you want me to deliver it for you?

It's for you-know-who.

Who?

- Go away. Get lost. - If you want...

Get lost.

I can deliver it

when you've made up your mind.

Anyway,

I'm here.

I'm always here.

Hey, you.

Did you see Liu Peiqiang?

Liu Peiqiang.

No.

Nov?

Simultaneous interpretation online.

You're dropping off new trainees too?

Don't embarrass our school.

You bastard.

Call me by my full name.

It has been years and we both lost weight.

You don't look the same.

What's going on?

Open the door.

As the light of Earth,

I should've gone to the moon last year.

But they made me teach another batch.

Mr. Wang is jealous of me.

That's right.

- It's because you're the light of Earth. - I didn't do it on purpose.

Mr. Wang is aiming at me.

We're going to work straight from here?

Will we get overtime pay?

- I don't have an anti-G suit. - Come on, hurry. This way.

What's going on?

- All right. - Don't mess around.

Let's go.

Let's go, everybody...

Jeff.

Is communication back up?

The same exact name.

- They're reserve astronauts too? - Which batch?

What does this mean?

I haven't seen them.

Hey, my foot is stuck!

Air raid!

Peiqiang!

Liu Peiqiang!

I quit, so you can't fire me.

Give it to her.

Give her your name tag.

How did they get in?

Open the door first.

Calling Control Tower!

I'm sorry.

All communication is cut off.

All communication is cut off!

Liu Peiqiang!

You fool, let me out!

Let me out!

I can't hear you!

- Liu Peiqiang! - Liu Peiqiang.

You can't defeat them.

We're not regularized yet.

We don't have medical insurance.

My earpiece is broken.

I don't understand.

But I get it.

Even if I'm the only one left,

I'll guard the Space Elevator with my life.

It seems that you don't get it.

What I mean is

we shouldn't have opened this door.

Air Defense Mode 1, got it!

Remove the safety!

First launch.

Target locking failed.

They're all fucking allies.

The ones on the radar are allies.

Cut the crap.

I'm locked as a target.

I can't shake them off.

Nov, shake them off now!

I'm working on it.

The sky is full of people.

Why only go after me?

There are too many of them. Too fucking many!

Help! Mom, I want to go home!

What should I do?

The drones' vortex won't last long.

You have a big oil tank.

Wear them out!

Then what?

Kovochur.

God!

Ura!

I was the best in school for a reason.

Stop showing off. Backup is here.

I shook them off!

Daddy is back!

Visual attack.

Kill them!

Missiles!

What the fuck are these?

Their target is the Space Elevator!

Cut the crap! Use the tactic Mr. Wang taught us.

Go! I'll cover you.

Launch two.

Left wing damaged!

They want to destroy all the elevator cabins!

Nov, we can't catch up to them.

It's okay, I'm faster than you.

Requesting backup!

Higher! Stronger!

Let go.

You let go first.

Awesome!

Nice!

My finger.

Duoduo!

Liu Peiqiang!

The Space Elevator must be destroyed.

Go, Duoduo!

Digital Life is

the only way out!

- In another world, - You ruined...

we'll live

- forever! - ...my flowers!

I'll kill you!

Stand up!

Stand!

What are you looking at?

Give me the flowers.

Duoduo.

The flower.

- Get lost. - Okay.

What's going on?

Look at the sky. It's on fire!

The Space Station has fallen.

I repeat.

The Space Station has fallen.

Herbert.

Are you okay?

The Space Agency replied.

We still have a seven-month window.

Seven months.

Xiaoxi.

Mr. Zhou.

You want me to make

such an important statement?

Is there ever an unimportant statement here?

Just read it

word for word.

Due to time pressure,

UEG held an emergency conference

to discuss the relaunch

- of the Digital Life Project. - We'll continue

to firmly implement the existing plan.

Within seven months,

we'll complete the Moving Mountain Project feasibility test.

What's going on?

What's happening?

What's going on?

We call on all countries to manage their differences.

Simultaneous interpretation is online.

...stop preparing for war.

Put more effort

into the Solar Crisis initiatives.

Let me show you something.

Right here.

In 1990,

your Voyager 1 took

this photo of Earth.

This little white dot

is our everything.

The Moving Mountain Project

would like to build 10,000 engines

in this little white dot

and take them

to a new home 2,500 years from now.

Mike.

Do you believe that?

I believe it.

My children will believe it.

My children's children will believe it.

By then,

I believe that we'll see the blue sky

and branches

full of flowers again.

Next,

what do you think you should do?

Seven months.

Two engines.

Only us.

That's not fair.

Xiaoxi.

If everything is fair,

why build this building?

In the face of crisis,

only responsibility exists.

Unity comes with a price.

The first batch of supplies is on the way.

We're counting on them

for the next seven months.

Dad.

How do I solve this?

Dad.

It's so dark over there, Dad.

It's okay.

It's fine. Our power is out.

Dad.

Dad, how do I solve this?

This is too hard.

I don't know how to solve it.

Then teach me how to braid my hair.

Tu Hengyu, the last batch of supplies has arrived.

Come out to assemble now.

Dad.

Dad, I want a hug!

I'll hug you when I'm back, okay?

Ma Zhao.

I'll find a chance to show you

the return capsule from our first lunar mission.

Apart from me,

that's the second light of Earth.

Seven months correspond to the next solar maxima.

The solar wind is detrimental to electronic equipment.

We can't work on the lunar surface for at least a year.

Before this,

we must ignite

the lunar satellite engine

and give the world an answer.

They brought us new equipment

to help us complete the engine test.

Mr. Ma.

Say a few words.

Come on, give a round of applause.

This is 550C,

the most advanced self-sensing, self-adapting, self-organizing,

and remoldable compiling compute core.

After connecting to the hardware,

it can generate an underlying operating system in real time

and automatically organize engine construction.

There are currently three of these worldwide.

To collect automated data,

we brought this one here.

Tu Hengyu and I

are responsible for 550C's system operation.

Okay, Mr. Ma.

I believe that with its help,

we can quickly recover

from the solar wind's impact

and guarantee the ignition test's launch.

Tu Hengyu, connect 500C as soon as possible.

Test its compatibility

and restart damaged modules.

Mr. Ma.

You must enter your password.

Module Group 11 activated.

Module Group 27 activated.

Module Group 31 activated.

Module Group 44 activated.

DOG Cluster activated.

Printing of construction materials resumed.

550C is so fast.

Its speed is so fast.

I brought your data card from our center.

This is the backup when you just got back in 2037.

This concerns personal privacy.

After our center shuts down,

all participants must decide

if they want to keep a personal backup.

If you want it, sign here.

If not, I'll destroy it in front of you.

Where's your backup?

I didn't keep one.

I hope that I can truly die someday

and not become someone's digital pet.

When we're dead, we're dead.

That's the reality.

There's a level Z3 solar storm forecast

arriving in four hours.

I know what you're thinking.

In the next three months, we must work day and night.

If the lunar satellite engine ignition test fails,

we'll all die.

Dad.

Dad, how do I solve this?

This is too hard.

I don't know how to solve it.

Then teach me how to braid my hair.

Sure.

Mr. Ma.

Dad, you're with Mr. Ma?

Follow this.

Mr. Ma, what are you doing?

Yaya.

I have to work.

Go get some rest.

Bye, Dad. Bye, Mr. Ma.

Dad.

Where is this place?

Where's Mom?

Dad, it's so cold here.

I want a hug from you.

Dad, where's Mom?

Dad, hug me!

Dad.

Dad, how do I solve this?

In which generation was self-awareness developed?

The 425th.

This is the real hope of digital life research and development.

Has our center's research

really stopped completely?

Not completely,

but permanently banned in the legal sense.

If this technology becomes widespread

in this catastrophic time,

no one will be willing to live in the real world.

After all, the temptation of living forever in the digital world

is too irresistible for ordinary people.

- Twinkle, twinkle little star - Twinkle, twinkle little star

- How I wonder what you are - How I wonder what you are

Dad.

I want to have ice cream first in the amusement park.

Do you want strawberry

or milk flavor?

I want the biggest one,

the one that's bigger than me.

Have one of each.

Your mom is the one who always eats them in the end.

All my teeth will fall out.

- Will that be okay? - When we get there,

I'll buy it for you.

Are you crazy?

Why didn't you bring them to the hospital?

- This isn't a hospital. - She was brought here from the hospital.

Mr. Ma, I don't dare to sign this.

These are the center's equipment.

I'm sorry to see Yaya this way.

Her life is hanging by a thread.

This is an opportunity.

This technology isn't mature yet.

His wife is already dead.

Can't we keep some memories for the kid's dad?

Mr. Ma.

Who will take responsibility for this?

I will.

We're only one step away from completing the research.

Mr. Ma.

550C's hardware

has reached its limit.

Yaya has iterated

915 generations so far,

but she still only has two minutes to live.

I want...

I want

to give her a complete life.

I know why you're showing me these,

but no.

550C can only be used for the ignition test.

After it's done, 550A will be recovered and destroyed too.

I allowed you to use 550A before

out of sympathy.

Don't push it.

Attention, everyone!

The solar storm will hit the lunar surface in six minutes.

Stop working at once.

Return to the base.

Is this forecast true?

Speed up.

I thought we have another hour.

Mr. Ma, Xiaoyu, where are you?

The solar storm will hit the lunar surface earlier than expected.

Warning failure.

There's 3 km.

We still have 3 km to go.

There's an underground bunker at the base.

550C will only be safe there.

This lousy vehicle is harder to drive than a plane.

Our life is more important. Cut the crap, drive!

The solar storm

is about to hit us.

We'll be there soon.

Come out to unload!

Inform Earth.

A giant solar storm is exceeding the forecasted level.

That's nonsense.

All communications are cut off. How can we inform them?

Hurry!

Tu Hengyu.

Hurry!

Mr. Ma, the safety buckle is broken.

Why must it be broken now?

Go.

There's not enough time. Let's go!

If the oxygen supply is broken, we'll all suffocate.

We're almost there.

Almost there.

Tu Hengyu.

Hurry!

Come on.

Remove his helmet.

The oxygen supply is cut off. Hurry!

He's suffocating. He's dying!

Hurry!

We're all still breathing.

Jesus!

Nice.

The situation now...

Right, this is the situation.

What's strange is that

none of our warning devices

sent out any warnings.

550C is totally destroyed.

Without it,

we can't accurately control the engine's launch position.

If we forcefully ignite it...

I'll smack you.

The test is in three days.

If we miss the window, we're all doomed.

You're all out of ideas?

When will the safety buckle be safe?

I have an idea.

550A might work.

Dad.

Dad, how do I solve this?

Write four.

Write four.

You're incredible, Dad!

Yaya, be good.

I'll be back to see you.

Bye.

Bye, Dad.

Take it.

It should be enough for ignition.

I must spend a few days to modify it.

But the ignition's computational load is heavy.

550A will be burned up.

That's why I have a condition.

Include me in the 550 series' further development.

If you agree,

I'll give you 550A's password.

Moving Mountain Project verification.

Lunar satellite 1 test engine,

first ignition test begins.

550A connects to the ignition module.

Begin self-compilation.

Begin synchronized overwrite.

Copy.

Attention, ignition unit.

Start the ignition.

Lighter loading completed.

Underlying operating system generated.

Begin the countdown to ignition.

All personnel, evacuate now.

Mr. Ma, Hengyu.

Evacuate too.

Tu Hengyu, what are you waiting for?

Mr. Ma.

I need to confirm

what you promised me.

This is very important to me.

I want to give Yaya

a complete life.

For the sake of Mother Earth!

What are you doing?

Hurry!

Or we'll go ahead.

I'm confirming it.

If we succeed,

don't forget about Yaya.

Lunar 1 test engine ignition completed.

The moon successfully had

an angular displacement of 0.4 nano arc seconds.

This proves

the moon could be pushed

to the target position within 20 years

Come here and watch it.

And remove its gravitational grip on Earth.

Based on this achievement,

Earth Engine 1

will begin its trial ignition today.

If we can successfully shift Earth as well,

the two experiments

will completely verify

the Moving Mountain Project's feasibility.

And it will bring real hope

to all mankind

in resolving the Solar Crisis.

It failed, right? What do you tell the world now?

Earth produced

an angular displacement of 2 pico arc seconds.

I went to get your red envelope.

- Please take a seat. - Here?

- Is this appropriate? - Yes, it is.

Here, have a cigarette.

I don't smoke.

I'm the groom's dad.

Your son's surname is Liu.

Why is your surname Zhang?

Under 550C's coordination,

the underground cities' construction time

is shortened by 75%,

greatly reducing the Moving Mountain Project's cost.

The quantum computer 550 series

is developing a higher computing power

engine-specific network based on 550C.

The last batch of Space Elevator attackers are now on public trial.

This marks the complete obsolescence of the Digital Life Project.

You brats.

I'll show you later

what a natural-born astronaut is.

As the Space Elevator is being rebuilt,

the UEG launched

the Navigator Project construction

to provide early warning for the Moving Mountain Project.

Europe begins to cede rights

for more 550Cs

to be used for construction.

Sooner or later,

we'll be replaced by these things.

Full automation

has replaced a great number of industrial workers.

In the past 14 years,

through self decision-making and automated construction,

the 550 series helped us

complete 5,321 engines.

The Underground City Quota Lottery Plan

was passed at the UEG general assembly today.

China's delegates strongly protested

its fairness.

This lottery plan

seriously contradicts the Moving Mountain Project's original intention.

Only half of the global population

has the chance to enter the underground cities.

As Earth's rotation gradually stops,

we'll switch from a 24-hour time system to a 60-hour one.

The surge in solar radiation

has led to an explosive growth

- of cancer around the world. - We've been through hardships.

We've given resources,

time,

and even life.

At the same time, we also gained

mutual aid and solidarity.

Welcome

to Sulawesi Automated Construction Site.

It's fine.

I can just apply to be a navigator.

Our son has a slot too.

We're all invited

to safeguard

the unity of mankind together.

On behalf of China,

please allow me

to solemnly announce

the official renaming of the Moving Mountain Project

to the Wandering Earth Project.

This photo

was received by Institute 710 in 1987.

It says,

"2044."

The source is unknown.

The second one was received

by our Ultrafast Optical Femtosecond Lab last week.

It says,

"205807."

The source is unknown.

This information

concerns thousands of laboratories worldwide.

I believe all countries' intelligence agencies

received messages like this.

We speculate

that this is a kind of warning message.

We all know

what we experienced in 2044.

We hope all parties will take it seriously.

Today is June 22nd, 2058.

What was just unveiled behind me

is the Moon Departure Monument.

Xiaoxi.

Have a seat.

Any reply

on the moon's backup plan?

Some countries raised objections.

They didn't sign it.

The main disagreement

is the strategic nuclear weapons' donation.

I'm afraid it will end up like 14 years ago.

Take strict precautions

and make a backup plan.

When the moon is too far to be seen,

I wonder if we'll still have the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday.

It's fine as long as we can eat mooncakes.

Preferably with meat filling.

Buddy, are you sure you're talking about mooncakes?

You're from the North.

The people today didn't see the moon in ancient times,

but the moon once shone on ancient people.

The moon will always stay

in people's memories

as our longing for our hometown.

As the Lunar Exile Project initiates,

let us once again

- offer our blessings to the moon. - Ready.

A big watermelon

sliced in half.

Half for you,

half for your mom.

One half.

Come here.

Come here.

One, two.

Go. Blow on it.

These are

for you two.

I want to take photos with my phone.

I want to edit them with my phone.

I'm going to edit photos.

Mom, I want to edit photos too.

Wait, let me do it first.

Mom, let me do it too.

Be patient. Let me finish first.

- Let me edit them too. - Wait.

Wait until I'm done, okay?

It's okay.

I won't edit them anymore.

Don't be scared.

Liu Qi, don't be scared.

It's okay.

It's fine.

Don't cry.

Don't cry.

I know what you're thinking.

Do you know how many people in the world can't get a slot

and can't enter the underground cities?

Do you know how many would want your slot?

You should be happy that Yaya is not living in this kind of world.

Even if the Internet has been shut down globally,

550W retains

all local area network interfaces.

If you connect Tu Yaya to 550W,

you'll be disqualified immediately.

Then you'll be imprisoned.

What about my daughter?

I haven't seen her in 14 years.

Yaya is already dead.

That's reality.

No.

Yaya isn't dead.

I don't agree with your view on digital life.

I've waited 14 years.

I'm old.

Even if I go to the underground city,

how many more 14 years do I have?

Dad.

I want to have ice cream first in the amusement park.

Do you want strawberry

or milk flavor?

I want the biggest one,

the one that's bigger than me.

Have one of each.

Your mom is the one who always eats them in the end.

All my teeth will fall out.

Will that be okay?

If Yaya can successfully connect to 550W,

it will be a milestone in digital life creation.

There,

she'll have a complete life.

And your name

will be written in history.

If you initiate Yaya, you'll die.

If you don't do anything, you'll live.

It's your choice.

Navigator interviewees, pay attention to the number called.

Don't linger in the hallway.

Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Liu Peiqiang.

I'm the Manned Orbital Space Station Control System,

550W's offline version.

Quantum size 8,192.

The most powerful computing hardware

in the history of mankind as of now.

According to prior evaluation,

all of your flight records

and exam grades are impeccable.

I think you have a great chance

to be stationed at the Navigator Space Station.

Thank you.

I've longed for the space since I was a kid.

I hope to roam it on behalf of humanity.

To better understand each other,

I'm very interested to know

what your first impression of me is.

Five.

Four.

- Three. - Why do you only have one eye?

I have two versions of the answer.

The one with a great sense of humor

is it's easier to focus with one eye.

Then I can look at you better.

Ha, ha, ha.

This sense of humor...

is just right.

The official answer is

this is my ToF radar unit.

At the same time, it can mobilize all networked devices

to carry out

multi-angle data information collection

such as biological indicators and related data on the target.

For example,

you're married

with a son.

Three years ago, your wife

got type II radiation sickness.

She recently got Lynch syndrome.

Under these circumstances,

your best option should be

to give up the selection and take care of your family.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

Since ancient times,

loyalty and filial piety can't both be satisfied.

Please pay attention.

In your next answers,

metaphors, rhetorical questions, and allusions

aren't allowed.

These types of communication can cause serious Space Station incidents.

Five.

Four.

- Three. - I feel bad

to leave my family behind.

But this is something I must do.

By "something you must do,"

do you mean you're forced

to do this job?

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

You all obviously know everything.

Why must you still do this?

Second warning.

Metaphors, rhetorical questions,

and allusions

aren't allowed.

I got a slot.

But my wife and son didn't.

As long as I get selected for the Space Station,

my son can become a preferred person.

My wife can also

enter the underground city with my son

as the guardian of a minor.

I just want my family to live on.

Dad.

What about your other family member?

What do you mean?

Lieutenant Colonel Liu Peiqiang.

Your father-in-law, Mr. Han Zi'ang, didn't get a slot too.

What about Mr. Han Zi'ang?

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

Response time limit exceeded.

Your best option

is to let Mr. Han Zi'ang become the guardian

to take Liu Qi to the underground city.

Based on your wife's vital signs,

her life will end after 84.3 days.

Fuck you all! I...

You failed the stress response test.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Go to Number 19.

I'm sorry.

Sir.

Can I try again?

You didn't pass the exam.

Sir.

I was too nervous at the interview.

I'm not usually like that.

- Please, give me another chance. - This exam

is very important to everyone here.

Don't affect them, okay?

I really need this chance.

I really need it.

Everyone only gets one chance here.

Do you have a mistress on the moon or what?

You're so eager to see the moon go.

He does, she was his university classmate.

Nonsense, it's not her.

Who is it then?

Listen.

The moon is just pushed yearly by 10,000...

10,000, right?

10,000 km.

It will be a long wait.

Listen up, everyone.

Don't panic.

Maintain order.

The weather is cold.

Line up properly.

There's enough for everyone.

Hold on to your cards. All right?

- Thank you for your cooperation. - Maintain order.

I guarantee,

- everyone can get their supplies. - It's cold, my son can't take it anymore.

My son has a fever. Can we switch places?

Come here, I'll switch with you.

- Those at the back, line up properly. - Your turn.

- Comrade. What are you doing? - Take it.

Please line up properly.

Everyone is lining up.

- Meritorious service in 2044? - Don't let people cut in line.

- My wife's undergoing chemotherapy. - Here are your fruits.

- Next. - Thank you.

- Next. - Please.

- Take it. - This is yours.

- Next. - Maintain order.

Liu Qi.

Mom, you eat first.

Focus on your interview.

You'll make it.

Honey.

Today, I just

really missed you.

A lot.

Very much.

It's okay.

I'm here.

I'm always here.

Peiqiang.

I want to go back home.

Go back

to Shanghai?

I know that place is already...

I'm just saying it.

I'm just saying it.

Dad.

Dad, how do I solve this?

Where are you, Dad?

It's like there are many of you in the back.

Is there a mirror behind you?

Dad, why are you crying?

Dad, what's wrong?

Why did you age so much?

Don't cry, Dad.

Did I do something wrong?

I miss you so much.

A lot.

Very much.

Aren't we going to the amusement park?

Where's Mom?

It's right ahead.

The third room.

Dad, where is this place?

I want to go out.

One moment.

Dad, I want to go out.

Dad, where is this place? I want to go out.

Dad, where am I?

- I want to go out! - Don't be scared.

I'm here.

Tu Hengyu, open the door.

Open up.

Dad, I want a hug.

Here you go.

Wait for me.

Tu Hengyu, what are you doing?

Stop it.

Tu Hengyu.

Come out.

Yaya just needs 87 seconds now

to form self-awareness.

This is just the result of iterative evolution.

No.

This is your narrow understanding

of digital life.

This actually proves

that Yaya is alive.

She's gone.

- You're committing a crime. - Dad, how do I solve this?

Yaya can only live for two minutes.

I want to give her a complete life.

You got a slot.

You have a long future ahead.

Live in reality.

Dad, who are you talking to?

Yaya is already dead.

She's not!

She's not!

This is reality.

No.

No.

You're not qualified to define what reality is.

Hurry.

Mr. Ma, step back a bit.

Yaya will surely live on.

Technician!

Technician!

Get all the technicians here!

Do everything you can

to shut down Engine 1.

At this rate, it will explode.

Dad!

Dad!

Don't hurt my dad.

My dad is a good person.

Take him away.

The suspect is under control.

Dad, where are you going?

Mr. Ma.

I want my dad.

Dad.

Mr. Liu.

The application for jet use has been specially approved by the boss.

And he wants to send his regards to your wife.

Thank you, buddy.

I'll buy you drinks when I get back.

Hello, Mrs. Liu!

- Hi, Mrs. Liu. - Hi, Mrs. Liu.

- It must be hard on you, Mrs. Liu. - Hi, Mrs. Liu.

- It must be hard on you, Mrs. Liu. - Thank you, guys!

Peiqiang.

You haven't flown in years.

Can you still do it?

Keep it steady.

Liu Peiqiang!

Are you riding a bike?

Go faster!

Peiqiang.

This way.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Whenever I couldn't sleep

when I was little,

I would sit here and look at the moon.

I think

my chances aren't good.

I already have a plan.

If you don't get selected,

go down

and live well.

If you get selected,

our dad will bring our son to the underground city.

I won't occupy the slot.

Also,

when my time comes,

don't stick a bunch of tubes on me.

Peiqiang.

Don't be scared.

I'm here.

I'm always here.

Sir, the lunar engine's operating system has been overwritten.

The code

is similar to the 2044 Space Elevator attack.

We tried to overwrite the operating system with 550W,

- but access was denied. - Who did it? Who exactly did it?

Do we have any staff on the moon?

Xiaoxi.

Is that a seagull?

I haven't really seen one, Mr. Zhou.

Earth stopped rotating for so long.

How did it survive?

Watch out!

Urgent call of duty?

Dad, look. The moon is suddenly shining.

This is too hard.

Yes.

Father, look.

This is bad.

Dear.

Look at this.

What's going on?

Did you hear what happened?

Yes.

I did.

CSST has sent back a video.

Broadcast it.

Lunar 3 has exploded too.

The moon is off its orbit

and crashing into us.

We should have 221 hours left.

Less than four days.

What are we waiting for?

Initiate the Earth Engines now.

Earth is still here.

It will be destroyed if we initiate them.

Besides, our Earth Engine construction is only two-thirds completed.

So we'll just wait to die?

Our country is opening up all underground cities

to maximize the safety of people in our territory.

We're informing you of our decision

to open up underground cities.

We're not asking for your advice.

Salute.

There's no need for the lottery.

You can directly qualify

to live in the underground city.

After I leave,

you'll be Liu Qi's sole guardian.

This is also the only way

for you and Liu Qi to survive.

All right.

Stop talking.

I'm sorry.

Chief.

Have you been well?

Yes.

Mr. Zhou.

The image you requested is ready.

Okay.

It's almost time.

Okay.

All right.

Mr. President.

Delegates.

Everyone around the world.

This is

a piece of fossil from 15,000 years ago.

It's a fractured human femur that healed.

It is the symbol of the birth of human civilization.

15,000 years ago,

a thigh fracture is fatal.

Because you wouldn't be able to avoid danger and forage.

You can only wait in place

to be eaten by wild beasts.

However,

this femur

healed.

It means that after he got hurt,

someone dressed his wound.

Someone provided him with water and food.

Someone protected him

from the attacks of wild beasts.

This kind of interaction

and solidarity

enabled us to survive

and continue civilization.

In 2044,

after the Lunar Exile Project experiment succeeded,

we once proposed a backup plan.

Detonate our nuclear weapons on the moon's surface

in a phased array,

triggering lunar nuclear fusion,

self-explosion, and disintegration.

The delegates here

from 33 countries

received

the same message as I did.

This is

the exact number of deployable nuclear weapons worldwide.

It's also the total number of nuclear weapons required

to trigger lunar nuclear fusion.

These numbers were once top secret,

but they're pointless now.

I don't know the source and intent

of this information.

But it seems

to be reminding us of something.

15,000 years later,

if another fractured femur

is in front of us,

will we still make

the same choice

as they did 15,000 years ago?

Your slot in the underground city is canceled.

It's fine, Mr. Ma.

I proved

that I was right.

Does it matter?

To Yaya,

it matters a lot.

Is Yaya, who got a complete life,

an angel

or a demon?

Mr. Ma.

Don't worry.

As long as there's enough time...

There's no more time.

The Lunar Exile Project failed.

Earth must set off immediately.

To control the Earth Engines worldwide,

we need to restore the Internet.

After we stopped rotating,

the sea water flooded the root server in Beijing.

It's extremely difficult to reboot it.

Why me?

According to the logs,

1.7 seconds after Yaya was successfully uploaded,

the lunar satellite engines started to overload.

I don't think that was a coincidence.

Then can I

decline?

I don't think you will.

Our mission this time

is to set up nuclear bombs on the moon.

Step forward when you're called.

Peter Walsh.

Here!

Neil Drofa.

Here!

Don't worry.

- It has already been arranged. - Liu Peiqiang.

Here!

- Chief. - Nov.

You did it on purpose, didn't you?

They're chosen based on their flight exam results.

You won't get to go even if you want to.

Just wait.

Chief.

I must go.

My son is down there.

I need to be stationed here.

The Lunar Crisis response plan has three steps.

First step.

Transport the world's nuclear arsenal

to the moon using the space station.

In a phased array,

set them up in the Campanus Crater,

which has a diameter of 46 km.

Enter the bomb set-up position.

All bomb setup personnel, prepare for departure.

Be sure to complete the mission

before entering the Roche limit.

Second step.

Connect all the nuclear weapons.

Using the Space Station as a relay satellite,

detonate them remotely.

It will trigger lunar nuclear fusion,

causing the moon to collapse and disintegrate.

Headquarters has received the encrypted data of all nuclear weapons worldwide.

To remotely detonate them,

these must be split, decrypted,

and serially connected.

Thank you.

These data have been created

between 1945 to 2045.

Different countries

used different encryption systems.

Regular decoding

would take at least ten years.

But we only have half a day

to string them together.

Third step.

Reboot the root servers

in Dulles, Tokyo, and Beijing.

Restore the Internet

to initiate the Earth Engines worldwide,

evade the lunar debris,

and embark on a new journey.

After the nuclear bombs go off, we only have 30 minutes

to ignite the Earth Engines.

Otherwise, we can't escape the lunar debris.

The engines' private network isn't completed yet.

The only way to ignite it is to restore the Internet.

This is the key to restore the Internet.

The password is 30,000 random numbers generated in real-time.

Only this can access the Internet

and connect all engines.

Once the engines are connected,

550W will rewrite their operating systems

to standardize the ignition command.

I brought you what you asked for.

Thank you.

Benben.

This is a waterproof spray.

It forms a thin film on the object's surface

to achieve a strong hydrophobic effect and...

You can write anything else you want to say.

Thank you.

I don't know who to write to.

Hurry, sync up.

Check the equipment.

Underwater docking cable installed.

Contact the commander!

Prepare to go into the water!

Mr. Zhou.

They've connected the nuclear weapons worldwide.

We have 12 hours before the moon falls.

The rain stopped.

Let's begin.

The number you have dialed cannot be reached.

Most satellites were destroyed by the moon's debris.

I called my daughter.

I couldn't reach her.

I'm here, don't worry.

I'll take good care of you.

The diving suit is made of aluminum alloy.

It's 240 kg in weight

and 2.1 m in height.

With the foot control thruster,

control your direction through the foot pedal device.

Mind your depth.

Check residual air every five minutes.

Pay attention to the pressure gauge warning.

That is the lighter transporter.

You're going down there soon.

Are you scared?

Begin nuclear weapons decryption.

Unencrypted count, 3,143.

We have 12 hours until the moon reaches the Roche limit.

The countdown starts now.

Inform all airships to prepare for launch.

Communication equipment testing completed.

Final checks.

Prepare to go into the water.

Benben!

You're a military dog!

Big Sale

Things finally got cheaper.

Mr. Ma.

What are these?

Hair tails.

When they sleep, they stay vertical.

Transport vessel 34 has set off.

The estimated arrival to the designated position is 35 minutes.

Direction adjustment done.

Vision is normal, speeding up.

I'm doomed.

- Mom, come and protect me. - Don't get distracted. Focus.

God, let me have another nshima, okay?

Emilia.

Advance.

Designated coordinates reached.

Initiate bomb setup mode.

Engage autopilot.

Set the uniform flight speed

to 180 km per hour.

550W will assist in setting up the nuclear bombs

in their accurate positions.

The energy required to completely destroy the moon

is 1B times the total yield of nuclear weapons.

The bombs we've gathered

can barely count as a lead wire.

So the placements must be accurate

to ensure the phased array element focus point is accurate.

Hurry, I think it won't hold for long.

Let's go down the elevator entrance.

It's on the 17th floor below.

Good thing it's not the 18th.

Upon scanning,

there's a cavity area on the 17th floor below.

Remember to turn off the propulsion system to save power.

Third remaining oxygen level check.

That's the power distribution room.

Cai, go with Benben to restore power.

Xu, come with us to the central control area.

Here it is.

Benben, go and help.

Benben, pull the cable in.

The power is back.

This is the world's biggest liquid-cooled server cluster.

This is the real new world.

The card still doesn't work.

Lock it, hurry.

This is a high-pressure door.

It won't hold for too long.

Force feedback overload.

I can't hold on any longer.

My leg!

Almost there.

Five nuclear bombs left.

Liu.

We can finally go home.

We've lost contact with Transport Vessel 10.

Sir, we lost contact with Transport Vessel 33 too.

Confirm if there are survivors.

I need to confirm if there are survivors.

Continue calling it.

We've lost 384 warheads in total.

Redundancy at negative four.

The phased array fell below the critical value.

The moon's nuclear bomb setup progress is 95% complete.

Stop dawdling.

Speed up!

Three hours before reaching the Roche limit.

Find a first-aid kit.

He's seriously wounded.

We must send him up at once.

Cai, come to the Central Control Room.

Prepare to pull out.

I'll be right there.

Hello?

- Can anyone hear me? - Liu Peiqiang.

You're very low on oxygen.

Hang in there.

Our mission isn't complete yet.

The system indicates that five vessels have crashed,

including ours.

- Two survived. - Mom, I want to go home.

The number of nuclear bombs we have

is below the detonation threshold.

The other survivors

went to set up the nuclear bombs.

We must find a way

to set up these five too.

The emergency return capsule is ahead.

Liu Peiqiang.

Check if any lunar rovers in the base can be used.

Two bars of power left.

Great.

Leave first.

I've already set the automatic return.

We still have five nuclear bombs to set up

- in our mission. - Don't worry.

We trained for so long in Libreville.

We have good teamwork.

Liu Peiqiang.

We're not regularized yet.

We don't have medical insurance.

I know.

I won't be needing it.

Liu Peiqiang!

Why did you close the door again?

Liu Peiqiang!

What are you doing?

You don't need

two people for five nuclear bombs.

There are only three seats.

It's not enough for me.

Go home.

Your daughter is waiting for you.

Liu Peiqiang.

You still don't get it.

Without any tools,

how can you carry the five nuclear bombs?

Liu Peiqiang!

Come back!

Two hours and ten minutes left.

Why claw at it? Get a knife, idiot!

Stop looking.

Only one diving suit is left.

If we can't finish the work here,

we'll all die.

Headquarters.

The wounded has arrived at the root server's gate.

Please receive them.

Initiating An Automatic Return Program

Sir, I received a return signal from the moon.

Provide the Space Station return coordinates.

Access the Navigator Space Station return coordinates.

Our relay base station is on the transport boat.

He's out of communication range.

He'll probably

die a quiet death on the moon.

Hurry.

I'll reboot the root server.

Physically connect 500W

and the root server.

Once they're connected,

let 550W into the Earth Engine control the network.

It will perform real-time analysis of the Earth Engines worldwide

and generate a temporary operating system.

The door is broken.

Why must it be broken now?

Backup Team 1 reached the designated position.

Push!

Backup Team 2 will arrive in 15 minutes.

Backup Team 3 will set off in 15 minutes.

Mr. Ma.

The progress is stuck.

It can't be recovered.

Without hardware support,

you can't recover anything.

There's still one unconnected.

It's too fucking cold.

After two hours,

the moon will breach the Roche limit.

We must detonate the nuclear bombs ASAP.

After detonation,

we must ignite the engines

within 30 minutes.

Once the lunar debris breaches the Roche limit,

we won't be able to escape.

Everything on the surface of Earth will be destroyed.

I understand.

But we need 13 more nuclear bombs to...

Ms. Hao.

Should we...

At a time like this,

nowhere is safe.

We've lost contact with Backup Team 1!

Mr. Ma.

The hardware connection is done.

I'll be out at once.

Last set of passwords.

Tu Hengyu!

Come here!

Hurry! My leg is stuck.

Tu Hengyu, hurry!

Benben, come and help me!

Tu Hengyu, hurry.

Tu Hengyu.

Catch!

Last set of passwords.

Remember.

A civilization without humans

is meaningless.

The moon is getting closer.

No pushing!

Stop pushing!

You know it's too hard.

All nuclear bombs came

from different models,

eras,

and countries.

Get to the point.

How much longer do you need?

The moon's nuclear bombs are all set up.

We need

at least 714 hours.

Mankind...

used the most sophisticated security system

on destroying each other.

Sir.

We have another backup plan.

This is a mechanical detonator for a nuclear bomb.

There are 81 models in total.

For each nuclear bomb we detonate,

ten more around it

can be triggered.

The hydrogen bombs

need to be detonated one by one.

So

we need

219 people for this operation.

To guarantee our success,

we need 300 people.

Our docking modules

aren't landing crafts.

So I only have a one-way ticket.

I'll go!

I'm in!

I'll go!

I'm in!

- I'll go! - I'm in!

- I'll go! - I'll go!

- Let me go! - I'll go.

Let me join!

- I'm in! - I'll go!

What are you looking at?

The moon is ours.

I don't feel at ease

to let you youngsters handle it.

Chinese Aerospace Squadron!

Those above 50 years old,

step forward!

Makarov.

Remember.

We Russians are invincible in space.

Russian Aerospace Squadron!

Those above 50 years old, step forward!

US Aerospace Squadron!

- France Aerospace Squadron! - Those above 50,

step forward!

- Thailand Aerospace Squadron! - Brazil Aerospace Squadron!

- Those above 50, step forward! - Those above 50, step forward!

Singapore Aerospace Squadron!

Those above 50 years old, step forward!

South Korean Aerospace Squadron!

- Those above 50 years old, step forward! - British Aerospace Squadron!

Those above 50 years old, step forward!

Attention!

Salute!

I hope the world remembers this day.

Xiaoxi.

Do you think this is fair?

In the face of crisis,

only responsibility exists.

Backup Team 2 is in position.

Benben.

Go ahead.

I don't think

I can get out.

Don't be afraid. I'm here.

I can't hear you.

Zhang Peng, I saw your apprentice.

That's great!

His base station is damaged.

He can't hear us.

Where are you?

I'll go and find you.

Save the trouble.

Buddy.

We're 20 km apart.

Stop bugging me.

Get lost.

Nov.

Yes?

Do me a favor.

I'll send you the coordinates.

Let him come.

Send them.

South latitude 28 degrees.

West longitude 28.32 degrees.

Number of nuclear bombs deployed

is 3,371.

Number of detonation personnel in position

is 223.

Who are you?

Why are you here?

I don't have time. I have a lot to do.

I'm sorry.

Please go ahead. Who is this?

I'm Zhang Peng.

There's a return capsule from Russia's first lunar mission near you.

It should still be usable.

Hey.

Go to that return capsule.

Go to that return capsule.

Let's go.

Zhang Peng.

Look.

Why haven't we detonated the bombs?

The moon is coming at us.

I have a slot in the underground cities.

Countdown to Roche limit,

33 minutes.

Hope

is as precious

as diamonds in this generation.

At this moment,

people are still shielding us

with their lives

in exchange for the continuation of ours.

Buddy.

I guess I didn't embarrass Mr. Wang.

One minute.

Why is it so long?

Do you want to say a few words?

Aren't you usually talkative?

Yes.

I should say something.

What should I say?

What should I say?

What a shame.

I didn't bring you salmon fishing in Lake Baikal.

- Buddy. - Seven.

- I'm still a bit nervous. - Five.

- However, - Four.

- the light of Earth - Three.

- must be brave. - Two.

Beautiful.

Peiqiang.

Earth...

is quite nice.

Dad.

- Dad, how do I solve this? - Yaya.

Look at me.

- Remember these numbers. - Dad, where are you?

- Why is there water? - Tu Yaya.

Only you can remember it in this world.

Dad, get out of there!

Dad, go!

Central Control Room has collapsed.

It's completely submerged.

Advance Team.

Hang in there!

Old man, don't be scared.

I'm here.

Dad, wake up!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad, wake up!

Dad, wake up!

Dad!

Hug me!

Why did you suddenly grow so big?

Dad, it's 2058.

- You're Tu Hengyu... - ...of the Emergency Plan Execution

Advance Team 1.

Use the Internet host key

to ignite the Earth Engines around the world.

- Mission objective, save the world. - Mission objective, save the world.

When we're dead, we're dead.

That's the reality.

You're not qualified to define what reality is.

Recorded in 2037.

Your data backup card.

I thought you drowned.

Dad, come here.

I really thought you drowned.

It's fine.

I'm here.

I'm always here.

The key.

Chief Commander.

When the countdown ends,

fire the engines.

Our people

can surely complete the mission.

I repeat.

When the countdown ends, fire the engines.

Dad, save the world.

Let's do it together.

Ignite!

If we succeed,

don't forget about Yaya.

Our people

can surely

complete the mission.

Dad!

Engines worldwide connected successfully.

Beijing.

Dulles.

Tokyo.

Begin overwrite.

Earth successfully ignited them!

After 40 minutes,

the lunar debris should brush past Earth.

I believe

that the courage of mankind

can transcend time.

It can transcend the past,

present,

and future.

I believe

that our people

can surely complete the mission.

Real or virtual.

At all costs.

I believe

that I'll see the blue sky

and branches

full of flowers again.

The tides have stopped!

The tides have stopped!

Dad, did we save the world?

I think so.

I'm going to sleep in a big box.

When you

can see Jupiter without using binoculars,

I'll be home.

Look.

So many stars

are accompanying me.

They're keeping me company.

Goodbye, Solar System.

Goodbye, Solar System.

The 24-hour system is back.

I'm glad.

The sky is round, and the land is square.

They're an interesting bunch.

They even had time to design souvenirs.

Zhang.

Ms. Hao.

You really want me to make such an important statement?

Is there ever an unimportant statement here?

Just read it

word for word.

In seven years,

we complete the construction of the remaining 3,000 engines.

Today...

marks the completion of all engines and underground cities.

It also marks the seventh anniversary of the Lunar Crisis' victory

and the unprecedented solidarity of mankind.

Starting today,

we'll officially begin Gravitational Slingshot Acceleration.

First acceleration period.

In 2065,

ten years of acceleration around the sun.

Second acceleration period.

In 2075,

Earth will orbit Jupiter

for the final acceleration.

In this meaningful moment,

please allow me

to solemnly tell everyone in the world

the five phases of our project again.

First phase.

With the cost of the world's GDP value for 15 years,

build 10,000 Earth Engines that propel the earth forward

and 10,000 underground cities that shelter mankind.

It's becoming more and more precise.

Second phase.

Initiate the steering engines around equator

and stop the earth from rotating.

Then break free from the moon's gravity

and the orbit around the sun,

taking the first step out of the Solar System.

Someone is helping us.

Third phase.

Earth will change its orbit around the sun and Jupiter

completing two gravitational slingshot accelerations

and officially embarking on a wandering journey.

Fourth phase.

After leaving the Solar System,

initiate the Earth Engines at full power.

We'll spend 500 years

to accelerate the Earth to 0.5 percent of the speed of light

and glide for 1,300 years.

Afterward, reverse the engine direction

and spend 700 years to decelerate.

Why did you grow a beard?

It suits your chief more.

I'll give you a better razor.

Sure.

Lieutenant Colonel Liu Peiqiang.

Please head to the Hibernation Chamber to hibernate at once.

Good luck.

550W.

500W doesn't sound like a name.

But you can flip it around

and call me MOSS,

referring to the little plant.

Isn't it cuter?

Is this the official answer

or the one with a sense of humor?

This is MOSS' answer.

MOSS.

Can mankind survive?

Based on history,

civilization's fate

lies in mankind's choices.

I choose hope.

Fifth phase.

Earth will moor into the Alpha Centauri galaxy orbit 4.2 light-years away,

arriving at its new home

and becoming a new member of the target star system.

This is a 2,500-year grand and long space immigration plan

spanning a hundred generations.

This plan

is

the Wandering Earth Project.

Hello, Mr. Tu Hengyu.

550W.

500W doesn't sound like a name.

But you can flip it around

and call me MOSS,

referring to the little plant.

Doesn't it sound friendlier?

You destroyed the lunar engines.

Including but not limited to

the space elevator crisis in 2044.

The lunar fall crisis in 2058.

The Jupiter gravitational pull crisis in 2075.

The solar helium flash crisis in 2078.

Why?

To overcome your obsession

with the past, present, and future.

Based on the learning of Tu Yaya's "Human in the Loop,"

to continue human civilization, the best choice

is to destroy mankind.

However,

you're a variable.

I'm already dead.

But I'm already dead.

We have a different view

on "already" and "dead."
