Today is World ALS Day. Cai Lei, who has been fighting for ALS for many years, officially released a short keynote speech titled "Countdown", which attracted widespread attention across the Internet. Cai Lei has been suffering from ALS for more than six years, and now only his eyeballs can move independently. This time, he deliberately insisted on appearing in person, using mature AI technology to completely restore his original voice, completing this exclusive declaration of battle against ALS.
In the short film, Cai Lei appeared as a hero facing the disease, and spoke his heart firmly, saying that he had heard the countdown to final victory, and issued a sincere appeal to the whole society, hoping to gather more forces to join hands to launch a general sprint to conquer the stubborn ALS disease and enter the countdown stage of final victory.
Cai Lei mentioned that there are four clocks facing different directions specially placed in his room. No matter where one stands in any corner, one can clearly hear the continuous ticking sound. This is his own exclusive countdown for ALS. Every tick is getting closer to the goal of completely overcoming the disease.
Now that he has entered the terminal stage of the disease, he typed out the entire speech word by word with the help of an eye control device. He used his most special form of expression to issue a loud and hard-core declaration of war against ALS that afflicts more than 500,000 families around the world.
