Chapter 272 Chinese Science Fiction Milestones (II) Everyone found Wang Yaowei's words funny. They had seen all kinds of movies, and none of the classic Hollywood science fiction movies surprised them. It was really funny that a movie like Source Code dared to say such things. Wang Yaowei stepped down from the stage, and the lights in the banquet hall gradually dimmed. The projector started up, and a picture appeared on the screen. The sun slowly rose from the horizon, and then shone in the sky. Finally, the sun slowly changed shape and became a Chinese character "日". The Chinese character "日" shrank, and the words "Tomorrow Film Company" appeared. This is the animated logo of Tomorrow Film Company, and it is also a true portrayal of Tomorrow Film Company. Then the words "Director Xu Xiaoming" appeared, and then the screen lit up, and a high-tech train was moving fast. From the wires above it, it can be seen that this train is electric, not steam or internal combustion. "This speed? It's probably about 200 kilometers per hour, right?" Some people are guessing. But the scene changed to the inside of the train. It was the door between the two carriages, and above the door there was an LED screen showing 478KM/H. "Wow!" someone exclaimed. 478 kilometers per hour? It's so fast! The scene changed again and appeared above the train. The train was moving forward at high speed. From time to time, electric poles flashed by, about two or three per second. "So fast?" someone else exclaimed.
However, they were just impressed by the speed of the train. They knew that this was a shot shot using the principle of fast motion, which is the simplest movie special effect. The scene turned again, back to the inside of the train. It was still the same door, but the camera kept moving forward, through the door and into the front train. As the camera moved forward, they saw someone using a flat box-like laptop, someone watching a TV show with a rectangular PAD, and someone making a call with a thin cell phone. At this time, a little boy appears, played by Wu Jing. He is playing a game on his phone, and the game is very clear, just like what is being played on TV. Notebooks, PADs, and mobile phones, anyone who has read Source Code will recognize these three things. It can be said that these three things run through the entire story of Source Code, and in many cases they are key props. But what they didn't expect was that these three things could be restored like this in the movie. "How is this done?" Hollywood science fiction movies can have many incredible things, such as spaceships, aliens and other products of super technology, but they rarely show things about human life. One reason is that the crew can't imagine what the future will be like, and the other is that these inconspicuous things basically no one cares about. But in fact, only those things that are closely related to life can demonstrate your abilities. At first, Xu Xiaoming and others thought of using the Japanese handheld game console to replace the mobile phone special effects. But after seeing the effect, they decisively gave up the idea. Later, with the emergence of the cutout machine, things became much easier. Ma Weidu directly contacted people from the animation company to create the screen of the mobile game. In order to make the screen look real, he even asked Liu Hongmin to check it. As for the TV series played on the PAD, they were clips that Xu Xiaoming specially asked someone to shoot. The camera continued to move forward and came to the protagonist played by Zhang Fengyi. Zhang Fengyi was sleeping on the table. When the camera got closer, he was suddenly surprised. He looked around in astonishment, looking at everything unfamiliar in front of him. The story officially began here, but the audience's discussion did not stop. They all knew the story of Source Code. From what they saw so far, the actors' performances were fine and they were in line with the story of Source Code in their minds. This meant that Source Code had already been a success and the box office was expected to be higher than HK$3000 million. As for how much higher it could be, it would depend on the acceptance of the Hong Kong audience. The film company bosses looked unhappy. As for the laptops, PADs and mobile phones that appeared in the movie, the box office would not be bad. These three things were simply magically attractive, and they all wanted to have one. But the next second, they woke up. This is a science fiction movie. If you want to have such electronic equipment, you don't know when you will have to wait. After sighing in their hearts, everyone stopped thinking about random things and started watching the movie seriously. Even though they already knew the plot, they were still attracted by it. Soon, the first explosion arrived. The high-speed train exploded on the viaduct, and the protagonist's ritual returned to reality. The laboratory scene was still full of science fiction. Various computers displayed different images, some were body monitoring images, some were data analysis, and the images changed very quickly, looking mysterious and impressive. The protagonist's memory is restored, and he immediately applies to enter the source code program again.
As the number of times he enters the source code increases, the protagonist will suffer more and more brain damage, and he will feel more and more pain. However, in the source code program, he will gradually recover his memory and wake up earlier and earlier. Every time he woke up, he would combine the previous information and identify the murderer as a suspicious person. In this way, they eliminated one person at a time and eventually locked on the final murderer. When the protagonist successfully subdued the murderer, all the audience breathed a sigh of relief; they finally didn't have to watch the protagonist suffer. After returning to reality, the protagonist fell into a coma due to excessive brain damage. However, he also turned out to be a blessing in disguise, because the excessive stimulation of the brain actually damaged the nervous system and restarted the nervous system. At the end of the film, when the protagonist stood up, everyone couldn't help but applaud and cheer. A hero should have a perfect ending! Liu Hongmin said to Xu Xiaoming beside him: "Brother Xiaoming, it seems that "Source Code" is done!" Xu Xiaoming was also very happy. It took him more than a year to shoot a movie, which was a unique experience for him. In Hong Kong, no one except Wang Sunjing would be so slow. Wang Yaowei came on stage again and said with a smile: "Everyone, do you believe what I say now?" The CEOs opened their mouths, but could not utter a word of rebuttal. The film was shot very carefully. In addition to notebooks, PADs, and mobile phones, there were also a large number of high-tech products, covering almost every aspect of life. For example, an electric suitcase can carry its owner on the road. Another example is a digital watch that can answer calls, monitor heart rate, and even make video calls. After watching it, everyone wants to live in the era where the movie is set. It is so happy. Unfortunately, the movie is about the year 2088, which is a full years away from now. Who can live to that time? I lament the brevity of my life and envy the infinity of time! (End of this chapter)
