China Entertainment's turbulent era

Chapter 58 Is it Sisyphus or Wu Gang?
"Mr. Wang, you have worked hard along the way."

"It's okay, you're getting better at talking, girl."

"How can it be? Isn't this just to care about the teacher."

Xiaomi, the girl who arrived in Sanya first, has been playing here for a few days, and now she is very happy to see Shen Fang and the others coming.

However, with so many people, the girl is still smart, so she got close to Teacher Wang.

Teacher Wang Jinsong is not a fool. He suspected that Shen Fang's girlfriend belonged to Beiying early in the morning, and now he saw that the girl directly ignored Shen Fang, a handsome guy, and cared about him, a middle-aged bald man.

Shen Fang's girlfriend is she?

After thinking about it, he looked over at Shen Fang again. This kid was like a crowd of onlookers, so he was pretty good at acting.

"Girl, teacher, thank you for your concern, but, do you understand this drama?"

This play, of course, refers to "Far Cry".

When it comes to the script of this play, Xiaomi is definitely the first to see it, but the girl has seen it, and she also understands the general plot, but she really doesn't fully understand it.

"Mr. Wang, I really didn't understand, but you should understand, right?"

The girl was talking, but her eyes glanced at Shen Fang.

Wang Jinsong laughed, "I'm old, I think this drama is very interesting, but if you really understand it, it's really not that interesting, Shen Fang..."

In the end, I simply pointed the finger at the core of our crew.

Shen Fang knew he couldn't run away, but he didn't answer directly.

"Lu Yang, what do you think?"

Hearing this question, Lu Yang seemed to just wake up from a dream.

"Oh, to be honest, I didn't fully understand it, but I probably saw that the infinite loop of the story has something to do with the ancient Greek legend, that Sisyphus, right?"

When he said this, Teacher Wang nodded first, very proud.

In Shen Fang's "Far Cry" script, the story of Sisyphus itself is not written.

On the one hand, Shen Fang didn't write in such detail and he didn't have enough time. On the other hand, he actually wanted to treat this as a 'puzzle'.

Now, Lu Yang can see it, which shows that he has something.

Shen Fang nodded, then shook his head again.

"Sisyphus is right, but what about our country's myths and legends? Are there any similar ones?"

When he asked, everyone was stunned.

Even Lu Yang's face was full of question marks.

As for Zhang Jianing and Xiaomi, they were even more confused.

Teacher Wang thought for a while, and a smile appeared on his face.

Shen Fang didn't hold back, and gave the answer directly.

"Wu Gang cut laurel."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yang suddenly realized.

"Ah! I didn't think of this before, yes, this is the story! It's similar to Sisyphus."

Then, Lu Yang took the initiative to explain to everyone who didn't know the details of these two stories.

Sisyphus, the son of Aiolos, cheated the god of death, and was punished by the god. He pushed a huge stone up the mountain every day, but the stone was too heavy, and it would roll down before reaching the top of the mountain. significance.

This is an infinite loop.

Wu Gang's cutting of osmanthus is also very similar. Wu Gang made a mistake, and the Jade Emperor punished him to cut down the osmanthus tree. Whenever it was about to be cut down, the osmanthus tree would grow back.

There are many versions of this myth and legend, especially the cause of Wu Gang's attack on laurel. Some say that Wu Gang was greened by the son of the god, and some have a private meeting with Chang'e.

However, it also means an infinite loop.

When Lu Yang told these two stories, Xiaomi and Zhang Jianing also understood.

Teacher Wang should have thought of it before, but he didn't say it.Moreover, Teacher Wang noticed something about Shen Fang just now.

This kid seems to be aiming at Lu Yang.

Could it be that Lu Yang looked at that girl Xiaomi a few more times before?

Thinking of this, Teacher Wang felt very funny.

Shen Fang suddenly said solemnly:

"I would like to ask a question that has little to do with the movie, that is, why do you think of the story of Sisyphus first, but why can't you think of Wu Gang's defeating Gui for a while?"

This question is simple on the surface, but it is also thought-provoking.

Even Teacher Wang, who always loves to laugh, became serious.

"Shen Fang, your question is really good. Alas~ We have lost too much in terms of culture."

Teacher Wang's words did not make it too clear, but the meaning has arrived.

Lu Yang was even more ashamed, "Indeed, we have similar myths and legends in China, but the first thing I thought of was Western mythology. Europe and the United States do have a greater right to speak in terms of cultural output. It's also really embarrassing."

When he said this, Teacher Wang naturally came to comfort him.

"I know it may be too official to say this, but the reality is like this. In terms of cultural output, we have been exported. To regain the right to speak in culture, there is a long way to go. I am afraid that people of my generation If not, this mission is up to you.”

Teacher Wang's words were indeed too formal, and he smiled and told everyone not to take it seriously.

But Shen Fang said:

"Of course we have to regain the right to speak! Only in this way can we achieve cultural output, but there is a premise here, that is, the things we want to export must be of high quality and look good."

The words he said were very powerful.

clap clap...

Zhang Jianing was infected and couldn't help applauding.

That's right, that's right, applause!
Xiaomi smiled, but also applauded.

Soon, Teacher Wang and Lu Yang also applauded.

It's like a swearing-in meeting.

This made Shen Fang a little embarrassed. The reason why he said that just now was because he thought of a lot.

The public opinion environment in this era is really bad. There are so many rumors and slanders on the Internet, and there are many leading parties and well-known big Vs. They dare to openly declare that they are patriotic and guilty.

It's a wild dance of demons.

If you are a friend who has only been in contact with the Internet more than ten years later, it must be difficult to imagine how smoky the Internet is in this era.

And in such an environment, the post-80s generation was also the one who was sprayed the worst.

Shen Fang couldn't help but think of "The Sun Also Rises". He, a post-80s generation, is about to take over the steel gun from his predecessors now.

However, he needs to accumulate strength first.

Money is power and power is money.

"Shen Fang, what's going on with this movie?" The girl was really anxious.

At this point, Shen Fang really had to talk.

""Far Cry" will be a very exciting movie, which combines horror, suspense, brain-burning and other elements. I intend to bring infinite horror to the audience!"

Is this... an answer?

Lu Yang and Mr. Wang looked at each other, and they couldn't help but speak in unison.

"Brecht?"

In fact, the original version of "Horror Cruise" can really be said to be a Brechtian film.

Because this movie has an 'answer', you can guess what the director wants to express through the many hints in the movie.

The heroine died at the very beginning... This is the director himself admitting.

Shen Fang didn't nod or shake his head, he just wanted to make a wonderful horror movie, a movie that would make money.

As for what the audience thinks, whether it is Sisyphus or Wu Gang defeating Gui, that is the audience's business.

As for the 'answer', he intends to hide it deeper.

At this time, another middle-aged woman appeared.

"Jia Ning, are you here? Haha... You are all part of the crew, come on, I have found all the places you want..."

As soon as she appeared, Zhang Jianing threw himself into his arms with a swallow.

This is Zhang Jianing's mother, Aunt Zhang.

Shen Fang asked Zhang Jianing to star in his own movie before, one of the reasons was that he hoped that Aunt Zhang could help.

Filming by the crew requires accommodation and a studio.

We don't have much money, so we definitely can't live in a hotel.

There was a real estate bubble collapse in Hainan before, and at that time, many people from the Northeast came here to buy houses.

Because at that time, the one here was also the one from Longjiang, and I went back and cried poorly to my fellow villagers. In addition, at that time, it happened to be laid off, and many workers had a buyout money in their hands.

The buyout money is really not much, most of them are ten to twenty thousand, but it is enough to buy a house here.

Another part is to deal with ants, so I won’t go into details.

Therefore, there are many unfinished buildings here, which are just suitable for filming.

In terms of accommodation, it is not a big problem, just rent a house from a fellow villager.

Shen Fang called Xiaomi before and asked her to come to Hainan to get in touch with Aunt Zhang to get these things done.

Not bad, this girl is very capable of handling things, and Aunt Zhang is also very caring.

Let's go and see where we live first.

Several people followed Aunt Zhang, but Shen Fang and Ya Tou were left behind in the line.

"Hey..." The girl walked slightly in front of Shen Fang, looking at him with very strange eyes, "What happened to you just now?"

"What's going on?" Shen Fang didn't want to look at her at first, but under the white vest, it was too eye-catching, "Why did you put on the costume?"

If you wear clothes indiscriminately, you will be criticized.

Whether it is "Far Cry" or "Horror Cruise", the heroine wears a small white vest.

Shen Fang is not a professional dressmaker, so he can only follow suit and give some advice first.

The girl was very proud, "I'm not doing this to get into the role better."

"Add a coat."

What he said made the girl couldn't help laughing, "You, why do I feel that you smell like vinegar?"

When Shen Fang heard this, his face turned red.

Seeing him like this, the girl was very proud, with a bright smile, and whispered: "From then on, except for filming, I will only dress like this in front of you."

When Shen Fang heard it, he coughed twice, "You just need to film well."

The girl knew that Shen Fang was also very happy, but he was too embarrassed to say it.

In fact, Shen Fang was not worried about Lu Yang. Lu Yang was an otaku, and he was a jerk. He and the girl were in the same school, so they didn't even know each other.

But when he thought that it was raised by him with his own hands, and that little white vest was very sexy, he felt a little bit at a loss for being looked at twice by others.

Shen Fang's thoughts are really weird.

It's just that the two of them interacted behind, and Zhang Jianing looked back from time to time, watching them all.

She is Shen Fang's girlfriend, right?
As soon as this thought appeared, Zhang Jianing couldn't help but look down at himself, feeling very sad.

Cute is vulnerable in front of sexy.

……

The crew of "Far Cry" followed Aunt Zhang to see the house. It was not bad, and it was a fairly ordinary residential area.

The rent is quite cheap.

The housing prices here have not risen at all, far from the Sanya sea view houses that cost tens of thousands of square meters later.

Now there is no Sea and Sky Feast.

As for the set, Shen Fang made a special request before, that is, it is best to be close to the cliff.

I thought it would be quite difficult, but unexpectedly, Aunt Zhang really helped find one.

The unfinished building was originally planned to be a cliff hotel.

Then, the next step is to do a simple decoration, and it can become our studio.

After settling down, Shen Fang began to contact the decoration matters.

A few days later, a group of people came to the door.

One of them is very characteristic.

Thin and tall, people worry that he will not be able to stand firmly.

He is Fat Toutuo, Che Baoluo.
