China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 707: Major script changes and "Tigress" Liu Tianxian
The Wolf Amendment is a provision passed by the American Congress in 2011, proposed by Frank Wolf, then Chairman of the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee of the U.S. House Appropriations Committee.

The main content of the clause is to prohibit any joint scientific research activities between China and the United States that are related to NASA or coordinated by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

All NASA facilities are prohibited from receiving "official visitors from China."

The purpose of the Wolf Clause is to block China-US space cooperation, curb the rapid development of China's space technology, and block the rise of China's space industry.

When Director Liu mentioned this clause, Sun Yi thought of it immediately and made up his mind.

So when I heard Director Liu say that he wanted to revise the script, all the excuses and reasons I had in my mind became useless.

For example, Sun Yi planned to tell Director Liu from an artistic perspective that film creation, especially scripts, should still respect him as a director.

Or maybe he is just going to play pitiful. The script has obviously been reviewed, so how can it be changed at will? All the early materials and manpower will be wasted. The landlord has no surplus food, so you can't bully people like this.

But all these things become insignificant when it comes to the major issues concerning the country's reputation.

Director Liu was indeed very embarrassed. He recalled that when Sun Yi brought the first version of the script, the last scene in it was that Liu Yifei returned to Earth via the Soyuz spacecraft in the Russian space station.

Experts from their space agency believe that Russia is now declining in all aspects of the aerospace field. In 20 years, the gap with the United States will be many times larger. It is not very convincing to use the Russian space station to return to Earth. The US-led International Space Station is more suitable.

But now the infamous "Wolf Amendments" have come out, which has been a slap in the face to many experts.

In fact, they are not wrong.

To be honest, at this time in 2011, although the United States has shown signs of decline after its peak, its comprehensive national strength is still higher than ours, and its science and technology in various fields are also leading the world.

In many ways, we are even following the Americans' lead.

But the bandit gene in its bones cannot bear to see you live a good life, and forces the Chinese people to be self-reliant and work hard.

Judging from the results in later generations, it is very consistent with what Lao Guo said.

"If you had given me a bite to eat, I wouldn't have been able to carve out this world on my own."

Isn’t it true? This is true in many aspects.

So is being far ahead.

This time, the "Wolf Amendment" can be regarded as a wake-up call for Chinese aerospace workers.

They have determined to make changes and are determined to achieve results through their own hard work.

At this moment, I suddenly thought of Sun Yi's movie again.

The world has just announced the terms that restrict you, and the Chinese astronauts in your movie boarded their space station and returned to Earth on their spacecraft.

Isn't it a bit like putting your warm face on a cold butt?
The "Wolf Amendment" is enough to be a slap in the face. If movies are filmed like this again, the Chinese aerospace people will be completely disgraced.

That's why Director Liu specifically met with Sun Yi and begged him to revise the script to more or less save some face for the Chinese aerospace people.

"Leader, don't worry. Although I made this movie to make money from the Americans, I am also a serious Chinese. In the face of such a major issue, I will never bring shame to the country."

"Don't even mention changing the script, we can even not make the movie."

"Director Sun, not really, not really, it hasn't gotten to that point yet."

Director Liu waved his hands repeatedly. Although the National Space Administration was an extremely important department, in principle, they had no jurisdiction over Sun Yi. Only the Optoelectronics Administration was the official unit in charge, and the two companies were only in a cooperative relationship. Even if Sun Yi insisted that the film was almost finished and the script could not be changed, their space administration would have no choice.

Now, Sun Yi's agreement to modify the script is already the best outcome.

Just when Sun Yi and Director Liu had basically reached a consensus, the door of Director Liu's office was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Director Liu glared and was about to get angry, but then he saw his secretary looking at him helplessly, still trying to block him with his hands.

But no matter how you look at it, it seems so soft and there's no sign of strength at all.

When he saw the person coming, Director Liu's anger was instantly suppressed, and the expression on his face was as wonderful as it could be.

Sun Yi was a little curious and turned his head to take a look.

An old man with silver hair and wearing a white coat, looked somewhat familiar.

Isn't this the old professor who kept finding fault with me when I was reviewing the script?

A group of people with hot tempers.

What's your last name?
Yes, his last name was Zhao, and he even said he wanted to recruit me as a lab recorder.
"Teacher Zhao, what are you doing? If you have anything to say, tell Xiao Wang and I'll come straight to you."

Director Liu stood up first, smiling, and as he spoke, he used his eyes to frantically hint at his secretary Xiao Wang at the door.

Even though he is the director of the General Affairs Department and a leader, compared with Professor Zhao, one is in administration and the other is in scientific research. Not only are they not subordinate to each other, but these old guys are all the darlings of the bureau, and even the director has to smile when he meets them.

He also had to receive warmly.

Unexpectedly, before the secretary Xiao Wang at the door could make any move, Professor Zhao waved his hand and said loudly: "It's none of your business. I'm not here to see you."

As he said this, he strode up to Sun Yi.

"Hello, Professor Zhao, this is?"

"Boy, I heard you agreed to revise the script?"

"Well, yes, there is such a thing. This is what I should do, after all."

"Stop, stop it, old man, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense."

Professor Zhao raised his hand and looked directly at Sun Yi with a sharp gaze. "Today I have only one word to say. I want to fight for us Chinese aerospace people."

"Movies, feel free to shoot them. Twenty years, no, ten years, we will make Tiangong look like that!!!"

bang bang bang~~
Sun Yi subconsciously clenched his fists.

He felt his heartbeat quicken.

He didn't know why, but these words from Professor Zhao, who seemed very rude and even unpopular, actually made him feel very excited.

Even my nose felt a little sore.

Others don’t know the meaning of Professor Zhao’s words.

But he knew that from that day on, the Chinese astronauts really took 10 years to independently build the Tiangong space station belonging to the Chinese nation, and had even set foot on the moon.

Sun Yi is not a soldier, but at this moment, he really wants to salute the wrinkled old man in front of him.

He bowed deeply, his eyes also red.

"Professor Zhao, don't worry. Just because of what you said, I will also take pictures of the Tiangong beyond your imagination."

"Good boy, I'll wait for you."

Modifying the script is a fact.

Since Sun Yi has set a flag, he must not go back on his word.

He did not return to the Huairou Film and Television Base, but called the deputy director Guo Fan in charge there, told him the specific situation, and then returned home to stay up all night to revise the script. In the previous final version of the script, Sun Yi designed that the space team was repairing the Tiangong space station, and an accident occurred. After encountering damage from satellite debris, the space station was directly destroyed. The survivors Liu Yifei and Liu Dehua fled to the Russian space station. However, the Russian space station was also seriously damaged and caught fire. In the end, Liu Yifei could only flee to the International Space Station and use the spacecraft inside to return to Earth.

The Tiangong space station in the story was destroyed by satellite debris at the beginning.

But now, we have to revise the script and put more plots on the Tiangong space station, so we have to adjust the order.

The order from Tiangong to the Russian Space Station and finally to the International Space Station was directly changed to the International Space Station, to the Sky Space Station, and then to the Russian Space Station.

The scene in the middle of the movie takes place on the Tiangong space station, and an extra set of shots will be added. The astronauts on the Tiangong space station did not know that Liu Yifei and her team were in danger, and they thought they had already evacuated the International Space Station.

So, I didn't wait for them.

After all, in the Chinese concept, there is no such thing as abandoning teammates.

The beginning of the movie was changed to the team helping the International Space Station repair equipment.

As for the question of whether the International Space Station will use Chinese equipment.

Sun Yi wanted to say, who said that it can’t be used?

Movies come from life but are beyond life.

The United States uses the Wolf Clause to prohibit any cooperation between NASA and China. So in the movie, Sun Yi makes the United States beg the Chinese Space Agency to help repair the International Space Station.

The later "Man on Mars, Planting Potatoes to Become an Emperor" was also powered by rockets from China~
Of course, there will be other problems if the script is changed in this way.

For example, at this moment, many domestic movie fans may think that this is pure wishful thinking, but Sun Yi knows that even though they don’t believe it now, within ten years, everyone will think that “Gravity” is a reflection of reality.

The American just wants to ask us for help, but he also needs to see whether we are in a good mood.

Moreover, he is confident that he can win over these fans with the quality of his film.

Of course, there was nothing he could do for those who were deeply poisoned by "cents".

If you don’t want to watch it, then don’t watch it. Starry Sky doesn’t need the money for movie tickets.

As for whether American audiences would have any objections when the movie was released, Sun Yi basically did not consider this issue.

The quality of the American people has always been to put happiness first. Apart from a very small number of so-called elites, the vast majority of ordinary people do not care about national affairs. Some even always believe that the capital of the United States is New York.

For such audiences, they don’t care whether it is reasonable or not. As long as the movie is good, they will like it mindlessly.

And with this change, the ending of the new script is more realistic.

In the end, Liu Yifei boarded the Russian space station and could not understand the Russian language on the spacecraft, but was still able to operate the spacecraft to return to Earth.

In fact, Russia's Soyuz spacecraft is the predecessor of the early Shenzhou spacecraft. The operating systems are almost the same, and they can almost be said to be of the same origin.

Therefore, the heroine, who has received professional training from the China Space Administration, can still operate the Soyuz spacecraft smoothly even though she cannot understand Russian.

The same logic applies in the original movie. Astronauts going to the International Space Station will receive training on how to operate the Soyuz spacecraft, as it is responsible for the transportation and supply mission between the International Space Station and the Earth.

Sun Yi was revising the script at home, and the filming of "Gravity" came to a halt.

The suspension here is for the live-action shooting part. The special effects production can still continue. Except for the design of Tiangong, which still needs to be supplemented, the special effects of the other two space stations can continue to be produced, but some parts need to be deleted compared to before.

As for the actors, everything is easy for our family members including Liu Xixi, especially Liu Dehua, whose schedule is already arranged.

Sun Yi called him specifically for this purpose and explained the current situation the crew was facing.

When Liu Dehua heard this reason, he agreed immediately and readily, even at the cost of postponing his own business activities.

Fortunately, his part had been completed a week ago. Even if the script was revised this time, he only needed to take time to come back and reshoot some scenes, which would take less than a week.

After making a lot of arrangements and finalizing the ideas for revising the script, Sun Yi finally calmed down.

In the study, he rummaged through the cabinets and actually found a pack of cigarettes.

He tore open the package and lit a cigarette silently. His movements were still skillful, but when a puff of smoke entered his lungs, he actually started coughing.

Haven't touched this stuff in a while.

He was feeling somewhat uneasy.

The Wolfe Clause incident gave him a great sense of crisis.

He knew about it but had forgotten the exact date, so he was caught off guard.

Counting himself, it has been 6 years since he returned to this era, and there are still 23 years left from the 12 years when he was reborn.

He has already walked one third of the way, which means that he has used up one third of the information advantage he possesses.

Time is running out~
Having not yet completely achieved financial freedom and being able to travel around the world with his little girl, Sun Yi decided that he should work harder.

He even has to think carefully about what will happen 23 years later. After all, he will be only 36 years old by then and will have a lot of life to live.

We must speed up the development of Starry Sky and continue to strengthen its influence in film and television production, and even in related industries such as culture, entertainment, and media. We must also work harder and strive to be considered by the organization.

Just as Sun Yi was thinking aimlessly, the doorbell of his house rang.

He quickly put out the cigarette butt and then hurriedly cleaned up the "crime scene".

When he came to the living room, Liu Yifei had already changed her slippers. She let out a strange cry and jumped onto him.

"I'm back!"

"Did you know that the crew has temporarily stopped work?" Sun Yi used both hands to catch Liu Yifei steadily and asked back.

"Ah."

Liu Yifei nodded slightly, then moved her nose slightly and sniffed Sun Yi hard. Then she narrowed her eyes and looked at Sun Yi as if she had been caught by me.

Sun Yi looked embarrassed.

At this moment, he subconsciously wanted to scratch his head, but Liu Yifei was still hanging on him, so he could only grin helplessly and apologize softly.

"This is the last time. This will never happen again. I will never smoke at home again."

Seeing Sun Yi carefully admitting his mistake, Liu Yifei pursed her lips, suddenly giggled, then hooked her hands together and kissed him without any disgust.

He kissed Sun Yi directly and sat down on the sofa.

After a while, their lips parted. Liu Yifei pouted and snorted at Sun Yi.
"What? Do you think I'm a tigress?"

"It's okay to smoke occasionally. I believe my good husband will control himself for the sake of his health and our future."

"Even if my Sissi is a tigress, she is the most beautiful tigress in the world."

Sun Yi looked at Liu Yifei in his arms. Her cute face was full of happiness and sincerity. He couldn't help feeling sweet in his heart. He nodded solemnly at her and smiled happily.

"Hey, I don't want to be a tigress, I can be a little rabbit~"

Hahaha~
