The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 513 Ancient Costume Version "Western World"

The words "costume zombie" sounded a bit absurd.

It was difficult for Wang Peng to connect the two words ancient costume and zombie for a while.

Zombies themselves originated from Hollywood's B-grade plasma movies, even if it is a kind of voodoo, it also has a modern background.

Dreamworks' "The Walking Dead" has carried forward the theme of zombies through the concepts of zombie virus, virus infection, and biochemical experiments, and even became a popular subculture popular among young people.

But in any case, zombies give people the feeling that they are science fiction subjects, science fiction disasters, and the end of the future.

The ancient zombies are somewhat difficult to understand.

"You mean zombies?"

Chen Jingxing shook his head: "If it's not a zombie, then wouldn't it be a ghost movie or a fairy tale?"

Zombie King General?Or a drought?Or the purple stiffness, white stiffness, and green stiffness of Maoshan Taoist priests?
This kind of theme is more common in online universities.

"It is to move the modern zombie outbreak to ancient times. Can the zombie virus be changed into an ancient medicine? The king sought longevity and refined a kind of elixir, or is it a herbal medicine prepared to bring people back from the dead? If you add Coupled with the court struggle, I think it has great potential."

In the previous life, there was a very different zombie drama "Kingdom", also known as "Li Shi North Korea", which combines oriental culture + ancient costumes + court schemes + zombies (plague).

Created a unique view of the ancient doomsday world.

Although "Kingdom" does not have many scenes in the court, it has created an atmosphere similar to the end of the late Ming Dynasty, that is, no matter which path you choose, it is wrong.

Everyone is fighting for survival and interests, and no one cares about the real flood.

In this doomsday atmosphere, whether the intruders are zombies, aliens or mobs, Doomsday presents an unstoppable state.

In a sense, "Kingdom" even surpasses "Quanyou" in terms of shaping the sense of the last generation. After all, "Quanyou" also has a night watchman army that never closes its eyes, and Li Chao in "Kingdom" not only has no Everyone joins hands to fight against the awareness of zombies, and there may be a large group of people who point to the zombie riots for political gain.

The monarch is tyrannical, the officials are corrupt and faint, and the people are sick and weak.

Although this is a fantasy ancient zombie drama, it is not child's play in terms of expression and conception. It has both excitement and depth, and the group portraits are also quite good.

Apart from the slightly naive and simple political maneuvering, there are no shortcomings.

Such a story can actually be translated to ancient China, and it is not difficult to adapt.

Chen Jingxing prefers the background of late Ming and early Qing.

However, this period of history is relatively sensitive and well-known. It is not impossible to make jokes. Any costume drama will have a fictional part, and it is not a documentary.

But the story of "Kingdom" is obviously not an ordinary joke. Zombies have come out. It is easy to touch the red line of historical nihilism when doing this under the background of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.

So try to avoid the unified dynasty as much as possible.

There are so many backgrounds to choose from.

The Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms are all suitable.

These two periods of history are not well-known, and I don’t know how many fictional costume dramas pull the background to these two periods in order to pass the trial.

Putting it in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the group of psychopaths in the Gao family in the Northern Qi Dynasty and the background of the story are actually quite in tune.

During the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the emperor was not the emperor, the minister was not the minister, the father was not the father, and the son was not the son.

Faintness, cruelty, bloodthirsty, and embarrassment to the people are all five poisons.

Cannibalism is also true.

It is also quite appropriate to put the background in this period.

Definitely no dynasty fans.

The name of "Kingdom" can also be directly replaced with "Dynasty", which is more atmospheric.

Wang Peng also couldn't accept it for a while, and felt that it was a bit outrageous, but after listening to Chen Jingxing's speech, he seemed to feel that it was really exciting and feasible.

Some ideas may sound absurd at first, but it is quite exciting to think about it carefully.

I can only secretly sigh that the boss's brain circuit is really extraordinary, unique and fast.

"Aren't many viewers on the Internet saying that we don't pay much attention to TV dramas? There are too few dramas to watch, so let's make another project, which is still a science fiction drama, about artificial intelligence, and Omnic Crisis."

Artificial intelligence and time and space are two high-level concepts of science fiction, and they are also the subject matter of DreamWorks.

To put it broadly, "Matrix" is also a theme of artificial intelligence, but it is just that the robot has won the final victory as the background. This is no longer the omnic crisis, it is simply the omnic ruling mankind.

"Suspect Tracker" is also about artificial intelligence, an artificial intelligence that can obtain all surveillance information and network information in human society.

Although the robot baby designed by the protagonist can help prevent KB attacks and predict crimes, and has been cultivated by the protagonist to be human, it is the camp of justice.

But at the end of the second season, another artificial intelligence "ghost" created by the KB organization came online. This is an immoral artificial intelligence that will stage a confrontation with the robot baby in the protagonist's camp.

Therefore, "Suspect Tracker" can also be classified as an omnipotent crisis.

There are also stories in unit dramas like "Black Mirror" that involve artificial intelligence, such as "Prometheus" in the last episode of "Black Mirror II", an artificial intelligence that reverses human routines in the Turing test and escapes from birth. Omnic Crisis Story.

Both "Suspect" and "Prometheus" have even been teased by fans as prequels to "The Matrix".

Wang Peng was waiting for the boss's brain hole, and it could be seen that the boss didn't come on a whim, but had an idea long ago.

The confrontation between humans and robots already has Skynet, and there is also the background of humans enslaving robots in the animated short film "Matrix", and there are even robots that provoke humans to fight among themselves and escape into human society. There is also a new Omnic crisis. What about the story?
"Humans still enslave robots, but in another way of enslavement, in "Matrix", robots build a virtual world to keep humans in captivity, so this time we will build a real world."

The second drama that Chen Jingxing wants to set up a project is "Western World".

In the future, a company builds a real amusement park. The theme of the amusement park is the West World of the United States. Visitors can play various roles such as cowboys as players, enjoy the real play experience, and explore the storyline.

The amusement park is equivalent to a large-scale game, with AVG attributes, RPG attributes, and sandbox attributes.

Players have a high degree of freedom to experience the game, the game process is non-linear, there are no goals to be achieved, and no tasks to be completed.Players can freely choose to experience or not to experience all the plots that are triggered.

And the NPC in this real "game world" is a robot, a robot that looks exactly like a human being manufactured through 3D printing.

The screenwriter writes the storyline, and the programmer implants the story into the robot program. The memory is cleared within a fixed period of time, and the robot repeats the same story line every day—of course they don’t know it.

Although all NPCs are so similar to humans that they are almost indistinguishable without physical destruction, players don't have to treat them in the same way as humans.

It can be treated like an item, or like a livestock.It can be used as a toy or as a tool.

Players can interrupt their stories, kill, rape, no one cares about their life or death, their feelings.

Just like what players do in the virtual game world.

The difference is that the virtual game is virtual after all, while the real "amusement park" can provide a more real experience, you will be attacked, you will feel pain, and everything is real except that the robot will not kill the tourists .

Then in this context, the story of the robot as an NPC awakening and rebelling.

Alternative Omnic Crisis.

Of course, it would not be "Western World" if it was changed to the background of Huaguo.

Can be replaced by the ancient world.

Create an ancient world in the amusement park. Visitors can dress up as knights and ancients to explore here, participate in the plot, and dig out the plot line.

So it can be called the ancient costume version of "Western World".
