The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 1 The Night the Comet Came

In the early autumn of 2013, in the evening.

A young man wearing sunglasses was leaning on a Volvo XC90 at the gate of the Beijing-Tianjin Film and Art Academy, ignoring the displeased eyes of the concierge, and leisurely chewing gum.

"Snapped!"

The young man calmly pushed the part of the gum that stuck to his nose after the bubble burst back into his mouth.

At the school gate where people come and go, beautiful men and women come and go.

Although there are still quite a few young girls... and some young men's gazes inadvertently linger on the youth for a little bit longer.

But after all, the short video platform is still underdeveloped, smartphones have not yet been fully popularized, and the trend of daring to take out a mobile phone to shoot when seeing handsome men and women, or directly approaching and asking for the social software numbers of younger brothers and sisters has not yet become popular.

So I can only take a look at the 1.8-meter-tall, shoulder-width, thin-waist, long-legged, ... big brother with sunglasses as much as possible.

There is no shortage of material for dreaming tonight.

"Senior Sister! This way!"

A girl wearing sneakers, jeans, a white woolen sweater, and short hair followed the voice, and saw the young man in sunglasses waving vigorously. got the car.

People looked away and stopped paying attention.

There is no shortage of handsome men and women in the film academy, and there is no shortage of rich second generations waiting for students to finish their classes at the school gate...and the rich generation.

The car was quietly on the road... slowly creeping along with the car in front.

"What kind of senior sister am I?"

"Our two schools are separated by a wall, rounded up, we count as the same campus!"

Facing the questioning, Chen Jingxing showed an innocent expression, and helplessly spread his hands, looking out of the window at the electric car passing by his car like a swimming fish.

The young man with sunglasses is called Chen Jingxing, which is taken from the phrase "Looking up at a high mountain, Jing Xing Xingzhi".

It sounds like a name given by cultural people.

The biological parents in this plane are indeed educated people, two middle school teachers serve a scumbag, Chen Jingxing can be said to have enjoyed the blessings since he was a child.

Others are all gods throwing money and awakening supernatural powers once they travel through time, but he has transmigrated into the examination room of the high school entrance examination...

There is no system!

No powers!

Only mixed doubles!

Fortunately, after a few days, he found that the way he traveled was not to seize the house, but to take the road of falling in love with the original host, killing each other, and merging with parasites.

After the painful intermingling of strangers and native souls, Chen Jingxing finally recovered his precious knowledge and memory, which made Chen's father and Chen mother heave a sigh of relief, and suppressed the idea of ​​binding his son to the hospital for neurology.

Even so, the Waterloo incident in the senior high school entrance examination has become a big unsolved mystery in the family history of the old Chen family, a major shortcoming of the famous name of Chen's father and mother, and the battle of Gaoliang River in Chen Jingxing's academic career.

On the glorious road of key junior high schools, key high schools, and key universities, I got off the expressway in the middle section.

Even though Chen Jingxing felt ashamed and was admitted to the Beijing-Tianjin Academy of Film Art...wrong, it was the Beijing Normal University, although it was also a key university, but it was still a little bit far from the expectations of the two teachers of the Chen family.

In fact, Chen Jingxing originally planned to take the exam for the directing department of the Beijing-Tianjin Academy of Film Art. This academy is a national first-class film and television talent training cradle formed by the merger of the Beijing Film Academy and the Jinmen Art Academy in this plane.

Although there is no problem with the culture class, but the major is not enough, and it was eliminated!
Reluctantly, he could only obey the will of the two teachers and go to a key university casually.

However, this did not extinguish Chen Jingxing's artistic ideals. The courses of the School of Mathematics and Science of Beijing Normal University made the small flame of pursuing art in his heart burn even more vigorously.

His mission to travel to this plane is definitely not to solve mathematical conjectures, publish physics papers, win Fields Medals, Nobel Prizes, and promote the rise of the country and the progress of mankind!

Chen Jingxing has a more arduous task, to meet the spiritual needs of the people in his own plane through copying... through information exchange and sharing between the two parallel universes.

This plane is almost exactly the same as the plane before Chen Jingxing traveled, physical constants, knowledge system, geopolitics, economic development and so on.

Coincidentally, the development of the two planes in the cultural field is very different.

The overall trend is not much different. For example, the country across the ocean is still the hegemony of the world, the entertainment industry is also extremely developed, and its culture is exported to the world. However, many commercially and artistically successful sci-fi works that crossed the previous plane are not seen here. trace.

The same is true in Huaguo. Although with the rapid economic development and continuous improvement of living standards, the cultural market has begun to prosper, the copyright fees for TV dramas have continued to increase, and the movie box office market has rapidly increased, but the overall quality of entertainment products supplied to the market is low. Generally, the form is greater than the content, too much attention is paid to the cast, the story is extremely immature, the gimmick marketing makes money, and the expression is not grounded.

As a whole, we are in the painful transition process of the mainstream creation and evaluation system from art to commerce. Most of the works are not up to the sky or down to the ground, and the result is an embarrassing stage that is neither artistic nor commercial.

In the Huaguo film market in 2012, domestic films are basically surrounded by three major themes: costume, comedy and youth pain.

The so-called ancient costumes refer to overhead history, court struggles, and adaptations of martial arts novels, which are almost the only designated subjects for blockbuster films at present.

The martial arts movies in the original plane declined together with the Xiangdao movies, but the martial arts movies in this plane are in the ascendant and have become one of the mainstream themes of domestic blockbuster costumes.

Comedy and youthful love are the mainstream themes of small and big. If you want to grab a little broth from the costume blockbusters, it is the best choice, and it almost monopolizes the narrative expression of modern themes on the big screen.

As for sci-fi movies, it is an absolute taboo in the film industry across the ocean. Of course, sci-fi usually refers to space opera and fantasy themes, and basically refers to comic-book movies.

In the previous life, countries on the other side of the ocean tried to adapt comic films in the 90s and 21s, but the market response was not satisfactory. Therefore, it was not until the [-]st century that comic films really emerged.

On this plane, they were very successful in adapting comics for the first time in the 80s of the twentieth century, and set off a craze for manga adaptations early on. Manga adaptation movies have been developed for decades, forming a highly mature industry chain from comic creation to film and television drama adaptation. Up to now The heroes have changed for several generations, affecting generations of teenagers all over the world.

Of course, the resulting problem is that American film and television creation resources have long been monopolized by comic films. Because of capital’s profit-seeking and capital-preserving instincts, original scripts are about to disappear from A-level creative resources, and usually only independent films or Only small companies dare to invest in original scripts, and original blockbusters have truly become endangered animals.

Although the almost monopolization of A-level blockbusters by the comic universe and its sequel movies has attracted criticism from many film creators in the world, it does not affect the cultural output of comic universe sci-fi blockbusters to the world. This precocious and extremely developed The global cultural output of the comic film industry chain has even affected the animation industry on the eastern side of Yingdao. The influence of the animation on the original plane of Yingdao is much lower than that of the previous world plane.

Limited by the chaos of the content creation system and the immaturity of the special effects industry system, it is not that there are no companies in Huaguo who try to make science fiction films, but few can recover the cost, and science fiction has become an unpopular subject, and few people care about it.

However, Chen Jingxing is determined to revitalize Huaguo's science fiction-themed film and television works, establish a mature film industry system for Huaguo, and at the same time achieve the purpose of cultural output.

As a scumbag student, if he dared to set such an ambition, he naturally had a golden finger to rely on.

This trip across planes gave Chen Jingxing an extra warehouse of film and television dramas in his memory. All the television dramas he had watched in his previous life were stored in this warehouse, and they were vividly remembered, and every detail could be clearly recalled.

At the same time, it also comes with a beggar version of Shenhao system.

After Chen Jingxing celebrated his first birthday after time travelling, he found that the bank card in which he saved the New Year's money had inexplicably added a huge sum of money.

225 million.

After the second birthday, there was an extra sum of 256 million.

After the third birthday, there was an extra sum of 289 million.

His clever brain finally cracked the mystery of numbers in his third year of high school.

The square of one year old is multiplied by ten thousand.

When waiting for him, the money transferred to his bank card is 18*18*10000, which is 324 million.

And so on...

how to say.

Compared with its peers, it is too shabby!
This can't be called the Shenhao system, it should be called the well-off system, and at most it just makes him have no worries about food and clothing.

Think about it, when he is 60 years old, the money that will fall from the sky will only be 600 million.

And inflation too!
Chen Jingxing does not think that the bankrupt Shenhao system will change its algorithm for inflation.

A rough comparison of these two gold fingers, no one would think that this plane is Shenhao's novel.

That must be a copy...a novel created by film and television culture.

This bank card expired when he was a freshman, so he had to go to the original bank to make up a new card with anxiety. Fortunately, the new card will continue to be credited.

Of course, Chen Jingxing did not continue to use the spirit of scientific research and seeking knowledge to experiment and explore the mysteries of the well-off system, such as canceling the original card and switching to a bank to get a new card, or trying to see if the bank card is invulnerable.

After all he really has a cow, ah no, a system.

He is unwilling to take any risk.

He is not proud, he saved more than 900 million in the three years of high school and four years of college, and finally finished his graduation defense and resolutely rejected the request of Chen's elders for him to study in graduate school. Started the first project of his filmmaking career.

"The Night the Comet Comes".

This is an extremely cheap sci-fi movie.

Relying on his well-off system alone, if he wants to shoot a big-budget heavy industry movie, he may have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

First shoot low-cost sci-fi movies, and after gaining fame and experience, increase investment step by step to realize the dream of shooting sci-fi blockbusters.

Chen Jingxing didn't realize that the steps were slow. He had to wait for the film market to gradually grow to accommodate blockbuster sci-fi movies. Although the box office of Huaguo movies in 2013 was growing at a high speed, it was still too reluctant to carry a heavy industrial movie.

He once hesitated between "The Night the Comet Came" and "The Man From Earth", but he still felt that the commercial elements of "Ball Man" were not as good as "The Comet".

Moreover, the cost of "Ball Boy" is higher, at least two cameras and a Steadicam are required.

Comet, on the other hand, required only a handheld camera.

The shooting location is the house he bought.

Most of the actors are drama actors he found from the Wuyi Theater, and the young lady sitting next to him in the co-pilot seat is his hand-picked heroine, Yan Xiaoyue, a graduate student in the Acting Department of Beijing-Tianjin Film and Art Academy.
