Chapter 13 The Night of Filming the Comet

"Night of the Comet" is undoubtedly an excellent low-cost science fiction suspense movie, but the core is not the parallel world shown in the movie, but human nature, such as jealousy, suspicion, fear, selfishness, and life choices.

This story tells that a comet descends on the earth, and the parallel time and space converge in a house, and four couples happen to meet in this house. Because of the power outage, the eight of them kept going out and coming in. Those who go out may enter another house in a parallel time and space, and those who come in may be people from a certain parallel time and space.

There are some necessary introductions of physical knowledge, such as Schrödinger's cat, parallel space-time theory, quantum science, etc., so doubts arose among the eight people, and killing and destruction also occurred. So there is the ultimate doubt: how do we prove that I am me, how to prove our own existence. Don't get me wrong, this is not for you to prove that your mother is your mother.

The shooting of the movie is actually not complicated, that is, the first shooting of eight people chatting in the room, the second shooting will make some changes in the details of the props and actors in the room, and the topic of the chat will also change, the third time... …

As for the two "I"s appearing in the same time and space in the end, that is to intensify the shocking effect, and the heroine finds that she has to make a decision before she can return to the world she is familiar with.

Other things that I can’t remember can be rewritten. Anyway, as long as the main line remains unchanged, there are many places that can be changed. In a word, the most important thing about this movie is the creativity, and the filming is not difficult. The original director only paid 50,000 US dollars, and it took 5 nights to shoot it, which is evident.

This mind-boggling movie is somewhat over-acclaimed, otherwise the director who made this movie should have had a lot of opportunities. The fact is cruel. After this movie, I didn’t see this director directing a commercial blockbuster. It seems that everyone is gone.

The box office of "Comet" is whatever you want, it is enough to be able to go to theaters. This low-cost movie is used by him to pretend to be cool. He really wants to know if the Chinese will praise the low-cost brain-burning sci-fi suspense movie made by his own people. .

The filming of Qu Li's part has already been finished. In the remaining time, the screenwriter of "Stone" and Qu Li worked together to perfect the script. Ning Hao is also finishing the final touches. In order to make the script more convincing, he specially contacted Chen Ke. Let him help to contact the physics and psychology teachers of Chengdu University of Electronic Science and Technology.

The physics teacher is mainly to plug the logical loopholes, and the psychology teacher is mainly to understand the possible changes in the state and choices of the characters in a special environment.

Qu Li mainly writes stories, while Yue Jun and Ning Hao's wife are real screenwriters. They came to Rongcheng with a bunch of gifts and contacted Chen Ke. They had an afternoon.

"The two teachers are already waiting for you in the office, this way." Chen Ke greeted Qu Li

"Well, thank you very much, this is for you." Qu Li handed the bag in his hand to his brother-in-law, and then took out an envelope with two thousand in it.

"I don't want it." Chen Ke took the bag and refused the envelope.

"You can take it if you want. I have the feeling that a man has no money. I can't help you much. If you lack money, you can find your sister. If you can't get a scholarship, don't go to Yangcheng next summer." Big stick, I don't know if these words are useful to my brother-in-law, Qu Li doesn't understand the world of Xueba.

"Okay!" Chen Ke nodded fiercely, studying hard

It was a pleasure to communicate with the two associate professors, let them know a lot of scientific knowledge, and the brainstorming also produced a lot of inspiration. As for whether it is useful or not, it is unknown. If a large crew can still hire a few consultants, they are not, nor do they have that much money.

Qu Li's trip this time is not only to perfect the script for his own movie, but also to help Chen Ke open up his social circle at school. Even the boss of Douyin, Zhang, needs to help his classmates and friends repair their computers. useless.

After the exchange, the three returned to Chongqing by car to continue writing the script.

"Brother Zheng, can you do me a favor?" Taking advantage of the fact that the main actors hadn't left, Qu Li invited them one by one. When "Stone" was released and became famous, maybe the box office of "Comet" would be even better.

"Tell me." Although Xu Guangtou is not optimistic about Qu Li's professionalism, his connections are invincible. A writer who was born as an orphan was able to hire the boss of Huayi, amazing!

"Well, I have a sci-fi suspense movie here, it will take about a week, do you have time?"

"A sci-fi suspense movie, a week?" Baldy Xu couldn't believe it

"This is a low-budget movie, and it relies on the concept to win. I went to Rongcheng University of Electronic Science and Technology to ask their professors about the script. The problem is not big. If there is a problem that I can't solve, Ning Hao will help me."

"Am I the main actor or a supporting role, is there a script?"

"The script is still being created by Sister Xing Na and Yue Jun. Because of the shooting method, there is no need for you to know the whole script. In fact, if the actors are strong, in the background we set, many scenes can be played freely."

"Talk about it carefully." Xu Zheng actually didn't want to accept it, but considering that Ning Hao was willing to help, it seems that this script is not without merit.

"A comet passed by the earth and affected a certain area, where many parallel time and space converge. 4 couples and friends gathered in house A, but there are many identical houses outside this house, which can be considered as B , Buildings C, D, F, and G. In each building there are 4 couples in parallel time and space. Because of the power outage in the room, they went out to explore, thus causing confusion, suspicion, fear..."

"This story is very interesting." Xu Zheng seemed to understand

"Why don't you call your sister-in-law over to help?"

"Haha, it turns out that neither you nor Ning Hao's target is me!"

"That's impossible. I've never met Mrs. Sister-in-law, so I always kiss you."

"You'd better give me a script, otherwise it's hard to convince her."

"Then we'll have to wait, but it's coming soon."

"Okay, I'll take a look at the script when it's ready."

Frustrated by Xu Zheng and comforted by Boge, he also made an appointment with Blue Wind Sand to go to Yangcheng to rehearse "Xian'er" and "Night Sky" after the Spring Festival. These two excellent pieces rekindled his dream of music.

"I think the way you invited is wrong." Huang Bo talked about Xu Zheng

"What's wrong?"

"Xu Zheng joined "Stone" with zero pay, you still want him to join "Comet" with zero pay"

"Here, I just want to make this movie well, and I didn't think about salary and making money."

"But everyone needs to live!" Huang Bo said that the crew of "Stone" received very low salaries. Although there are many reasons for participating, love is indispensable.

"The total cost of this movie is not more than 500,000. Do you want to find a drama actor?"

"It's not bad for drama actors to perform in the same house."

"But then the box office will be even more useless, let me think about it." Qu Li quickly turned his brain, how to deal with this kind of unfair distribution of benefits, the best way is to let everyone become a community of interests.

"Brother Hao, why don't we start a film company together!" Before the film was finished, Qu Li approached Ning Hao.

"Why?"

"This is how I think, "Comet" is the first project shot by this film company, and everyone will share the money earned."

"is it necessary?"

"I think this way, if "Stone", then our group of people will become famous. When "Comet" takes advantage of the popularity, the box office should be good. The money they didn't make in "Stone" can be seen in "Stone" Comet earns."

"If "Stone" fails at the box office, this movie may be cannon fodder, but the cost is not high, and our loss is not big."

"Once you make money, if you want to make a movie in the future, you can cooperate with Huayi through this independent film studio. I believe you will have greater freedom."

Qu Li talked eloquently, and he was more like an adult than Ning Hao, and he knew more about business.

"It won't be troublesome to set up a film company, right?"

"I inquired about Hengdian's special support policy, and there are tax incentives. It seems to be exempt from corporate income tax for three years."

"Then try it?" Ning Hao was moved by Qu Li's words, and when he returned to the dormitory, he and Xing Na thought it was okay. So in the future a well-known film company was established.

After the filming of "Stone", Ning Hao personally persuaded Xu Zheng, and Ning Hao served as the producer of the "Comet" project, Huang Bo, Xu Zheng, Ning Hao and Sun Honglei. The Yan Wang who asked Ning Hao to wait for him for two months before filming "Stone".
