Chapter 52: The real matrix world, Neo learns kung fu

Morpheus said: "You have been living in a dream, this is the real world."

The camera switched and focused on the TV.

CGI was added later.

The picture on the TV went dark, there was thunder and lightning, and there were ruins everywhere, like the end of the world.

There is a deserted cliff nearby. At the bottom of the cliff, two people are still sitting on the red sofa.

Morpheus: "Welcome to the desert of reality."

Neo looked around in horror.

At the filming site, there was actually only a green screen around, and the performance was all based on imagination.

"The information we have is incomplete, but we can determine that at some time in the 21st century, all mankind will hold a grand celebration at the same time to celebrate the birth of AI, a great initiative."

Neo: "You mean artificial intelligence?"

Morpheus: "It is this artificial intelligence that allows the robot population to multiply and grow. As time goes by, it is no longer clear who is the first to attack."

"Then we darkened the sky because the robots relied heavily on solar energy."

"Throughout human history, our lives are so dependent on machines, and our fate is so ironic."

This section was shot using animation preview, so everyone present knew what to shoot.

Special effects synthesis will be used extensively in the later stages.

"The bioelectricity emitted by the human body exceeds 120 volts, and the body temperature generated exceeds 25000 units. The machine uses fusion to obtain inexhaustible energy."

In the animation preview, there is a gloomy environment, with huge mechanical arms controlling humans, who are raised in red vessels.

"In the endless fields, human beings are not born and raised, but planted."

Animation preview, large panorama.

Under the darkness, there are countless human vessels, and extremely tall tentacle robots shuttle among them, as if they are planting.

"For a long time I didn't believe it either, until I saw it with my own eyes."

"Watching them liquefy the dead to raise living people. I stood there and watched the machines make full use of them. I finally knew that the facts were right in front of me."

The camera cuts back to white space.

Morpheus turned off the television.

"What exactly is the Matrix? It's control! The Matrix is ​​a computer-generated virtual world used to control all human beings and turn every living person into this..."

He took out a battery and made an analogy.

Neo's views were shattered and he shook his head, "No! I don't believe it, this is impossible!"

Morpheus: "I didn't say it was easy to accept, but I said it was the truth."

From close shot to medium shot, Neo becomes a little crazy.

"Stop talking! Let me out! I want to get out!!"

"Cut!"

Qin Feng shouted stop and walked to the field.

Keanu Reeves and Fishburne also walked over.

"director."

"Very good," Qin Feng said, "In the story, Neo has been in contact with Trinity and Morpheus from the very beginning, and has been constantly searching for the truth of the matter, arriving here and understanding the real world."

"I think anyone can't accept it. Their outlook is too broken."

Keanu Reeves: "OK, I should be more broken down."

"Yes, and Morpheus's expression also needs to be colder. You have witnessed many human tragedies, understood all the truth, and become the most powerful leader."

"No problem, Director."

Fishburn nodded.

"Then, there are a few camera transitions and we'll do it all over again."

After Qin Feng finished explaining, he returned to the director's seat.

……

When the day's work was completed, Qin Feng called it a day.

I can finally relax.

He rubbed his brows and put down his headphones.

Saw Zou Zhaolong in the distance.

"Mr. Zou."

Zou Zhaolong came over and said, "Director Qin, what's wrong?"

"Tomorrow's scene will be the filming of Neo's first action scene."

"Oh, we have arranged it before. We can just do some acting on the spot."

"That's good, let's do it tomorrow morning. You guys will do the show first and change your costumes at noon."

"Okay Director Qin, I'll go talk to Keanu and the others."...

The shooting continued at noon the next day.

Inside the spaceship, Neo sat alone on the floor.

The hatch opened and Tank walked in. He was strong and smiling.

"Good morning Neo, did you sleep well?"

"I'll fall asleep tonight, I promise."

"I'm Tank, your operator."

Neo looked at the tank and noticed something, "Why don't you have..." on your arm?

Tank: "Is there an interface jack? No, my brother Doze and I are both 100% pure human beings, born in the most ancient way."

"Born in the real world, a child of Zion."

"Zion?"

"Yes, Zion will rejoice when the war is over."

"Is that a city?"

"Well, the last city, the only remaining human settlement."

"where is it?"

Tank squatted down, "Under the ground, close to the center of the earth, it's warmer there. If you're lucky, you might be able to see it with your own eyes."

He smiled: "To be honest, if Morpheus is right, I really want to see what you are capable of. I shouldn't talk about this, but if you really are... that would be great."

"There's a lot to do today, let's get started!"

At this time, the scene changes.

Qin Feng shouted: "Control center, next game."

Tank and Neo came to the control room, and Neo sat on the seat.

Tank was a little excited. He flipped through different hard drives in his hand, which contained various physical fitness programs, and said:
"Now it stands to reason that you have to learn the basic operations first. This is the most boring thing..."

"We should do something exciting. How about combat training?"

He inserted the hard drive into the computer.

The screen gave a close-up shot, but the picture inside still had to be completed in post-production.

Neo stared at the screen, "Judo? Do I want to learn judo?"

Tank quickly operated the keyboard.

swoosh-

There was a mechanical sound.

From a close-up to a close-up, Neo felt a pain and closed his eyes tightly.

After 3 seconds, the pain disappeared. He opened his eyes and gasped: "Oh hell!"

Tank smiled and said: "Want some more?"

"Ok."

The camera switches to the computer, accompanied by an animation preview.

Fighting programs continued to be input into Neo's body.

Karate, Taekwondo, Drunken Boxing, Tai Chi...

Morpheus walked over and patted the tank, "How's it going?"

Tank: "After studying for ten hours straight, he is like a machine."

Cut to close-up.

Neo leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes, his eyelids twitching.

Finally, he breathed softly, opened his eyes, and relaxed.

"I learned kung fu!"

Morpheus stepped forward and said, "Show me your skills."

"Cut! Prepare to transfer to the martial arts venue."

The crew quickly made the transition.

There is a shed next to the martial arts venue. It is made of wood and has been decorated. The space is open and bright.

Zou Zhaolong led a group of action actors waiting there.

Although this scene is only for two people, Wia will be used, which requires some manpower.

Close-up shot.

Neo and Morpheus are already in the process.

Both of them changed into their martial arts uniforms and stood facing each other.

The contest is about to start!
