When will I be the queen

Chapter 409 Reminder

409

Indeed, Cai Cai shared snacks with Xianjun and sat quietly until the end of the ceremony. Even people who came to greet and talk were stopped. Dongfang Xing really did what he said.

But both insiders and outsiders can see clearly that this time, the crisis of Oriental Star was perfectly saved by Cai Cai. Even when Cai Cai was completely unaware, she cooperated and interacted sincerely without any reluctance. People inside and outside the circle once again witnessed Cai Cai's innocence and kindness. Any other artist, even those with a much lower status than Cai Cai, would not be able to do it so smoothly. The point is that Cai Cai herself is enjoying it, and she doesn't feel angry or aggrieved at all for being offended, used, or used as an NPC to gain merit.

[It's really stupid]

But there are people who say that Cai Cai is scheming. In fact, it is not that Cai Cai is scheming, because anyone with eyes can see that Cai Cai is a simple-minded person. So they say that Wan Qian and Mei Zhang are scheming, and they teamed up with Dongfangxing to suppress the scandal with Cai Cai. Then both sides benefited - Cai Cai's fame skyrocketed, and from the beginning to the end of the ceremony, and even for a long time afterwards, the entire Internet was filled with various videos and analyses of Cai Cai, as well as rumors and gossip, etc. Dongfangxing avoided the scandal beautifully, achieved both fame and fortune, set a new level for the ceremony, and the awards were more valuable, etc.

Anyway, there are all kinds of news about it. To put it bluntly, it is very popular.

Seeing Cai Cai's effect and role, other awards, apart from Huamei, which had repeatedly confirmed that Cai Cai would attend, were secretly delighted and kept sending gifts and care to Cai Cai. Other large and small celebrations and award ceremonies at home and abroad could not sit still and contacted Cai Cai through various channels and means, hoping to invite Cai Cai. Including Xingfan, they directly invited Cai Cai to be the award presenter. But they were all politely rejected, saying, "Cai Cai joined the group."

This is not a lie, Cai Cai has indeed joined the crew. Because Kunlun has entered a short production period and there are no filming tasks for the time being, Cai Cai does not want to go abroad, so she wants to stay with her family in China to feel the festive atmosphere in advance. Mei Zhang simply applied for a training course from the company, which is actually to let Cai Cai take a paid vacation.

As a result, within two days, the Immortal Lord came personally, dug Cai Cai out of her home, and brought her into a film crew.

  "." It's fine if you're a workaholic, but why do you want to drag someone else to your grave?

Cai Cai was very unhappy, so she put on a stern face when she got out of the car. She was originally the type with a blank expression, but because of her clear and innocent eyes, noble temperament and pure breath, she always looked very peaceful overall. Except for the role photos, she was basically divine when she was not talking or smiling. This sudden appearance with a stern face made the people who came to greet Cai Cai when they knew she was coming, stunned for a moment, stopped in their tracks, and even shrank back.

How should I put it? Cai Cai with a cold face is really quite dignified, and even more like a fairy. It's the kind of fairy feeling that the world is not kind and treats all things as straw dogs. To be more straightforward, it's the inhuman look that can turn the world upside down with just a wave of her hand, and nothing in her eyes.

No exaggeration.

  Some people think that Cai Cai is more charming inexplicably, some think that Cai Cai looks like an immortal, and some people think that Cai Cai looks like a female boss. It's true that she is a female boss he has met in real life. That person's surname seems to be Cai. Oh, her surname seems to be Tang.

The immortal helped her down and saw the reactions of the others. He felt amused in his heart, but said nothing. He let Cai Cai throw a tantrum and look sullen. He greeted Mei Zhang along the way and was led into the directors' rest area of ​​the crew.

  Yes, the director of this crew has his own independent rest area. He didn't come out to greet Cai Cai, not on purpose, but because he was reviewing the film. But he also paid attention to the movement outside. When he heard a little noise, he knew that Cai Cai had arrived, but he always felt something was wrong. Because if Cai Cai really came, it would definitely be more lively, right? Why is there no movement?

The director couldn't help it and sped up his hands. After completing the editing of a time point, he stopped, stood up and came out to see if there was any other situation.

As a result, when I opened the door, I came face to face with Cai Cai and her group.

  Uh. What's going on?

Cai Cai was still glaring at the Immortal Lord, but in the blink of an eye, she happened to meet the director's eyes.

Well, that's a little embarrassing.

“It’s you.”

It was Lu Keke, one of the great directors I met at Oriental Star a few days ago. Cai Cai searched all her works after returning home. Cai Cai had watched several of her works before because of the superhero theme, but she couldn't match them up. This time, she searched and matched them up.

  Tang Jinen and the others followed her to the audio-visual room to watch the video together, and they all talked about how an old lady with such a cute name could shoot something so bloody and bloody.

Yes, Lu Keke is a top director of science fiction, a master, and she is not a name for nothing. But appearance is not what one judges by. She looks like a retired civil servant lady who speaks nonsense in the alley, but her aesthetics and preferences are truly crazy and violent.

In fact, it can be said that in the development of film history, all themes and settings have been filmed, and they have been filmed over and over again, in various permutations, combinations, splicing, and fusions, combined with current social events, and the titles are all new, but in fact there is basically no novelty. Including science fiction.

Fantasy about science and technology, whether it is based on existing scientific knowledge or fabricated beyond reality, all fantasies have been filmed. Lu Ke can stand out among a large number of science fiction themes because of her pursuit of extreme violent aesthetics.

Many science fiction films and TV series are dressed in the guise of science fiction, but their core is still about the truth, goodness and beauty. Family, love and friendship, family and country, small love, justice and evil, the relationship between scientific and technological development and humanistic feelings, etc. It only depends on the director and screenwriter's aesthetic creativity, scenery and character design, as well as the integrity and logic of the script.

Simply put, a good science fiction film is one that can tell a complete story based on science fiction.

Lu Keke did this. Then, on this basis, she added her own unique aesthetics - madness and violence. It is not just the kind of simple and superficial madness and violence, otherwise it would not have been possible to pass the review and be released.

Lu Keke's extreme violent aesthetics is basically displayed in inadvertent places, wrapped in great tragedy.

For example, the movie that Cai Cai and her family watched was also Lu Keke’s award-winning work, but it was not as famous as "5090", but it always remained in the top ten in the science fiction film rankings.

The protagonist is an old man, but he only looks like an old man. In fact, he is an innocent passerby who was injected with genetic drugs. Because he was traveling abroad with his family, he was sold to a mysterious laboratory by the hotel owner as an experimental subject. The people in the laboratory ignored the protagonist's requests for help and resistance. His mother, wife and daughter all became experimental subjects. In the end, only the protagonist survived the family and became an old man. He escaped when he found an opportunity to kill the escort with his fingernails that had grown longer due to the experimental drugs.

Then he tidied up his appearance and picked up an identity bracelet from a rotting corpse on the roadside, which just matched his old appearance. He changed his appearance and waited for an opportunity to take revenge.

The revenge process was actually quite funny. I met several people who were like-minded, and then they died one by one. Some were killed, and some committed suicide. Anyway, the protagonist was always safe and sound, and survived by picking up equipment and loot along the way. The plot was more than half an hour long, and the whole process was high-energy, with one person dying every five minutes. There were many ways to die. The violent scenes were not the kind of simple beatings or beatings, but small-scale twisting, pinching, and stabbing. Anyone who has experienced it knows how painful it is. For example, your toes hit the iron table leg.

Then after this small act of violence, there is a large amount of blood, gushing out in large quantities, as well as broken fingers, limbs, and heads. It is through these pains that everyone can understand and the large number of bodies that the film creates a violent scene that makes the audience shudder. Many scenes are even funny to watch, but basically no one can laugh. It is really crazy.

The protagonist finally went deep into the laboratory. In a huge experimental chamber, he found countless innkeepers sleeping quietly. He was frightened and ran out. In another experimental chamber, he found countless sleeping daughters. He was frightened again, but felt a sense of joy at regaining what he had lost. The protagonist started to drive the experimental chamber, hoping to see his mother and wife, but after driving one by one, he saw the drivers he had met several times, but he never saw his mother and wife.

This scene is also absurd and has a kind of crazy humor. Sometimes the camera is of countless people with the same face, clean and peaceful, sometimes it is a close-up of the protagonist with sweat on his head, and more often, it is a person who is only partially peaceful, such as a person with only the head and all the internal organs exposed in the air, or a person without a head, only the internal organs and limbs exposed in the air, or a person without facial features. Some are single close-ups, and some are group close-ups.

This segment is full of high energy. Many sci-fi secondary creation videos must cut this segment as material, you can imagine how successful it was. In the end, the protagonist discovered a large number of sleeping himself. It turned out that he was just one of a large number of cloned experimental subjects, implanted with memory chips and thrown into a designed experimental society as a life observation object. Everything around him, except for the researchers who played his mother and wife, were cloned experimental subjects. The reporting incident from beginning to end, including his series of escapes and revenge, and the cloned experimental subjects he encountered were all designed. After knowing this, the protagonist was injected without even shouting and could not move.

After a brief black screen, the screen suddenly brightens, and then an ordinary door appears in the camera. As the door opens, a man who looks exactly like the protagonist, dressed like an ordinary office worker, holding a mobile phone and a garbage bag in his hand, smiling and talking to his wife and two sons. The last scene is behind the man, through the gap in the door, are the mother and her two children, three faces with smiles that look like copies.

An unoriginal but very horrific ending.

After Cai Cai finished reading it, she subconsciously looked back.

Many films, especially those of the science fiction suspense and murder mystery genres, have a bird's-eye view for the audience, and it is easy to guess the plot. Some viewers who like to watch these films like to put themselves in the protagonist's perspective, some like to put themselves in the villain's perspective, and some simply enjoy the bird's-eye view. Except for those that deliberately create an illogical object in order to make the audience unable to guess the ending or the murderer, and then boast that no one can guess the real murderer, the result is a big bad movie with a negative rating.

This is because the director and screenwriter have run out of ideas and are deliberately disgusting the audience. In the final analysis, it is because of their lack of ability. People in the industry cannot say it so directly, and they only say that they are new film and television people or something, but outside the industry, they are all criticized. So it is not difficult to make sci-fi, suspense, and mystery films that are not bad to watch. There are many routines and the audience can accept them. But if you want to make them look good, it is not difficult. The quality of the film depends on the director's ability. The picture, rhythm, plot, etc.

It is even more difficult for someone like Lu Keke to film herself as a king. It is not something that can be summed up in one word: talent. Lu Keke has an extraordinary imagination and execution ability. To put it bluntly, she dares to think and do. She will try her best to present all the images in her mind, and they are very real.

When I watch her sci-fi movies, I don't feel like I'm watching a sci-fi movie. I don't feel a strong sense of separation. I feel very involved, as if it's a story happening around me. Even if the screen is full of technology, it still feels familiar.

Of course, this is inseparable from the unimaginable huge investment and production costs, and more importantly, Lu Keke's sensitivity and style.

Cai Cai has watched quite a few science fiction films, and she has found that good science fiction films will give the audience a real feeling. They will not distract the audience or let the audience brainwash themselves. The director will use his own camera language and pictures to subtly brainwash the audience.

Today's science fiction directors, including Lu Keke, all have their own science fiction universes, which are their own personal visual styles and textures, as well as character setting directions.

This is similar to founding a school of thought; only people with real ability and talent can create their own creative universe.

  Then in front of such a big director, I was glaring at him. Uh, it was a bit embarrassing and very rude.

Cai Cai became depressed.

Xianjun laughed, feeling a little distressed, so he pulled Cai Cai and greeted Lu Keke, "Aren't you going to invite her? I saw she was staying at home playing games again, so I pulled her over."

Lu Keke pretended not to notice the depression and shyness on Cai Cai's face, and kindly invited Cai Cai and Xianjun to sit down, "Are you taking a break? I'm so sorry, I want to ask you for a favor. What game are you playing? I'm playing a game too."

Cai Cai reported the name of the game, and coincidentally Lu Keke was actually playing it, "I've reached level 39, how many levels have you reached?" It is a very typical single-player clearance game, but it is well designed, with various hidden mechanisms and rewards with or without paying. No one has yet completely cleared the game. Lu Keke's assistant has searched, and the highest record is level 306.

"Three hundred and thirty-two levels."

"." So it's you. No need to search, the highest record right now is definitely level 332.

Even if Xianjun doesn't play this game, just by hearing the number Cai Cai, he knows that she must be the best at it.

"How many medals do you have?" The rewards for clearing the game and the rewards for various hidden mechanisms are beautiful medals. The game designer said that they all asked masters from various fields to hand-draw the designs. The reason why Lu Keke played this game was that a director friend of hers participated in the design of the medals and sent it to her to show off, but the game producer did not invite her to design medals. In short, it can't be said that she was envious, but she started playing it out of pure curiosity.

"I have fifteen thousand six hundred and seventy-two."

  "."Are you really acting well?

If they didn't know that Cai Cai wanted to be on the set 24 hours a day, Lu Keke and Xianjun would have asked this question. How did you get so many medals? Where's the time? Where's the energy?

"I only have forty-five." Lu Keke still thought she was pretty good, but she had not even a fraction of Cai Cai's.

Cai Cai was a little proud, hehe, "I'm pretty good at playing games~~~"

“.”I’m not praising you!

The Immortal Lord tapped Lu Keke's editing table and asked, "Are you done for today?"

Lu Keke nodded. "It's an indoor shoot. The two main actors have to go with other crews. We started shooting at around five o'clock and just finished not long ago. Everything went pretty smoothly." It's a little after three in the afternoon now. It's less than ten hours, and including lighting, venue, and makeup, it's only been less than twelve hours. It's not easy, but it was also fast. "Modern dramas are easy to shoot. There's no etiquette or special effects. As long as the actors' lines are good, we can shoot however we want." Lu Keke really loves taking on projects like this.

Later, Cai Cai found out that Lu Keke's film team was her own independent company, including most of the special effects in post-production, which were all independently produced by her team. Just like other big directors, there are also several directors in her team. I don't know if she only produces her own movies, which is a way to train juniors and make money. And like some movie directors, Lu Keke will also take other filming jobs. So her TV series production contracts were all signed to Wanqian, not her entire team, but only herself and several of her assistants. The assistants are both directors and screenwriters, very capable, and belong to her close lineage.

But to put it bluntly, these big directors sign TV drama contracts just to make money. To earn pocket money. To ensure that when they are not making movies, they can still be directors, achieve financial freedom, and train their troops.

It is said that there is a gap between TV actors and movie actors, but in fact, there is also a gap between directors and screenwriters. Compared with the different picky and harshness of the film and television circles towards actors, for directors, the gap between movies and TV dramas is not so obvious, and there is no comparison of who is better.
