Chapter 143 Expanding the Small Breaking Ball Universe

"Okay, I admit that you have convinced me, and I am currently very interested in the "Wandering Earth" project."

Cameron changed to a more comfortable sitting position and looked at Jamie curiously.

"But I'm more curious about how the plot of the sequel will develop? I mean, you bought the copyright of this story from the Chinese writer, surely it was not just for making a movie, right?"

"of course."

Jamie put down the coffee cup in his hand.

"In my conception, the story perspective of "The Wandering Earth 2" will return to the interior of the earth. After experiencing the crisis of Jupiter, the earth successfully flew out of the solar system, but the ammonia flash did not arrive as scheduled."

"The long-simmering dissatisfaction of the people at the bottom completely erupted under the instigation of the spaceship faction. Riots broke out in underground shelters around the world. In the end, the rebels overthrew the government and executed all high-level and earth-sect scientists, including the spaceship that instigated their rebellion in the first place. group."

"At this moment, a solar ammonia flash broke out, and the entire solar system was engulfed by the expanding sun. However, the rebels blocked the news from the people in order to maintain the dominance they gained through riots."

When he heard this, Cameron couldn't help but interjected:

"The boy who killed the dragon finally turned into a dragon?"

Obviously what Jamie just mentioned is just the background setting of the sequel. As for the real story——

Jamie shrugged, indicating that he hadn't thought about it yet.

After all, with Cameron's slow speed in making movies, "The Wandering Earth" can be released at the same time as the previous "Avatar". I think Weststar Pictures must be thankful.

So it is obviously too early to consider the content of the sequel at the moment.

But this does not prevent Jamie from making a big deal with Cameron.

"My initial idea is that the earth has been wandering in the universe for hundreds of years and still has not found a galaxy or planet suitable for human habitation. At this time, due to the abnormal high-pressure rule and the technological blockade of the bottom layer of the earth, the entire planet is heading towards the end of the world. The direction cyberpunk is headed.”

"Through the space elevator, the ruling class all moved to the ever-expanding Navigator space station, and the people staying in the earth's shelter were completely reduced to enslaved objects. In order to obtain prosthetic limbs, Jack accepted a high-level company Recruited, take a spaceship to a planet called Pandora."

"There are intelligent indigenous life forms on Pandora, and there is a special magnetic field on Pandora that will render most of human technology ineffective, so the advance team scientists mixed the DNA of humans and Pandora's indigenous people to create an Avatar that is nearly 3 meters tall. , and can be controlled by human will and thought to facilitate the invasion of Pandora."

Having said this, Jamie glanced at Cameron who was opposite with a shocked face.

Obviously, at this time, Cameron had not thought of naming the planet he had previously conceived after Pandora.

The concept of Avatar should not have been born yet.

Cameron is obviously interested in this sequel story, but he refuses to admit it directly.

"Wow, I thought the last Easter egg in the script of "The Wandering Earth" was that Michael is not dead, and the sequel will continue to tell stories about him."

Jamie smiled and winked at Cameron.

"Actually, the Easter egg that Michael did not die was buried for the filming of the prequel."

The four people present, including Sheldon, Cameron and Ovitz, were all shocked.

Is there a prequel to "The Wandering Earth"?

Jamie nodded.

Although the script has not been written yet, this does not prevent Jamie from revamping the plot of his previous life "The Wandering Earth 2" according to the style of Hollywood screenwriters.

The story is set before "The Wandering Earth 1". Scientists on Earth discovered that the sun will expand and engulf the entire solar system one day in the future, so scientists on Earth began to deduce various survival plans.

After several years of argument and discussion, the spaceship faction and the earth faction have become the only mainstream choices.

The staunch earth faction, headed by Chinese and some American scientists, proposed the "Moon Drop Plan" to install planetary engines on the moon and earth at the same time.

While banishing the moon, the earth will stop spinning and prepare for the next step of the earth's departure from the solar system.

Radicals among the spaceship faction proposed the "Digital Life Plan" to upload human thoughts to the digital network to achieve digital immortality.

In this way, it can solve the problem that human life is too short to adapt to long-term space exploration.

However, due to moral and ethical reasons, the "Digital Life Project" was rejected, and related research was classified as illegal. Major countries around the world began to concentrate resources on the "Falling Moon Project."

Unwilling to fail, the Spaceship Faction secretly found Dr. Will Custer, a leading researcher in the field of artificial intelligence, and funded his continued research on the "Digital Life Project."

Then just when Will was about to succeed, a traitor within the Spaceship Faction betrayed his research plan.

The U.S. government sent an elite team of agents to arrest Will, but at the last moment Will successfully uploaded his thoughts to the Internet, and then detonated the laboratory, killing his body and the team of agents.

Will becomes the first human to achieve digital immortality.

Will's wife Evelyn and his best friend Max also participated in the research. At first, they both thought that Will had died in the explosion, but then a series of strange things appeared on the Internet, which made them realize that Will had died in the explosion. To Will may have succeeded.

After some efforts, they successfully got in touch with Will, who became a digital life.

During the exchange, Evelin and Max discovered that Will's various behaviors had gradually evolved into his ambition to control all mankind.

They start thinking of ways to stop Will.

This echoes the technology used by humans to create Avatars later, and also provides the basis for Jamie's envisioned development of the earth into cyberpunk technology.

And this story is not original to Jamie, but directly copied from another later Hollywood movie "Transcendental Hacker".

Just made some changes in the specific settings.

On the other side, in order to realize the "Moon Fall Plan", humans built space elevators and space stations as transportation hubs for earth-moon transportation.

At this time, young Michael appeared and met Kate, the space elevator pilot, when he was on a mission to the space station.

At this time, Will, who had transformed into a digital life, invaded the control system of the space elevator, controlled drones to destroy the ground base, and at the same time launched missiles in an attempt to destroy the space elevator.

The rebels secretly trained by the spacecraft also broke into the space elevator with Will's support.

Michael and Kate work together to defeat the spaceship rebels.

At the same time, Evelin and Max also overwritten the control system of the space elevator base through a new generation of quantum computers, preventing Will's sabotage plan.

However, attacking the space elevator was just a false shot by Will. His real purpose was to invade the quantum computers that control all planetary engines on the moon.

Evelin and Max issued a warning to the United Nations, but the pilot test of the planetary engine on the moon was very successful. The high-level officials on the earth did not take their warnings to heart and began to officially implement the "Moon Fall Plan."

But just after all the planetary engines on the moon were successfully ignited, Will, who was hiding in the lunar quantum computer, suddenly appeared. Under his intervention, all the planetary engines on the moon were overloaded uncontrollably and exploded one after another, causing the moon to fall towards the earth. . After urgent discussions, scientists on Earth finally decided to use a phased array of nuclear bombs to trigger the moon's own nuclear fusion and blow it to pieces, and at the same time activate all planetary engines on the earth to avoid lunar debris.

Of course, as is always the case in Hollywood movies, the traditional villain, the Furry Bear, appears again at this time, refusing to use a corresponding share of nuclear weapons.

In the end, the American representative stood up and made an impassioned speech. Mao Xiong compromised and the plan was reached.

Michael is chosen as the astronaut to land on the moon to plant a nuclear bomb.

On the other hand, Evelyn and Max also summoned the world's top hackers to jointly build the Earth's Firewall, completely trapping Will in the lunar quantum computer.

As long as the moon is destroyed by a nuclear bomb, Will will also be destroyed together.

However, the process of blowing up the moon will definitely not be so smooth.

According to the classic Hollywood three-act script structure, the story has only now progressed to the second act.

In the previous story of "The Wandering Earth 2", the decoding of various types of nuclear bombs in various countries could not be completed on time, and the manual detonation mode had to be used as a last resort, which meant that a large number of astronauts were required to sacrifice themselves to complete this task.

In the end, the astronauts from China and the Bear Country stepped forward without hesitation and sacrificed themselves to save the earth.

This is a unique plot in the narrative context of Eastern movies, which emphasizes that individuals can be sacrificed for the collective.

If a Hollywood screenwriter were to design this plot, it would turn into a story of personal heroism in which the hero single-handedly saves the earth.

Of course, in order to make the story more reasonable, Jamie designed the plot so that when the Chinese astronauts landed on the moon in a spaceship and prepared to detonate the nuclear bomb in a self-sacrificial way, Michael, who stayed on the moon to lay bombs, came to tell them a good news. information.

Michael has a way to successfully detonate a nuclear bomb on the earth without sacrificing himself. This method is to cooperate with Will.

It turns out that while Evelyn and Max successfully trapped Will on the moon's quantum computer, they were also constantly trying to talk to Will.

In the end, love and friendship successfully awakened Will's human side.

In order to prove to the people on earth that digital life is not absolutely indifferent and also has human emotions, Will finally decided to sacrifice himself and let him control the nuclear bomb on the moon to complete the detonation of the phased array.

However, Will's previous behavior of destroying the lunar planetary engine made the Earth's higher-ups fearful.

In the end, Evelyn stepped forward and decided to go to the moon and complete the action of detonating the moon with Will.

This proves that digital life has the same love and emotions as humans.

The United Nations voted to approve the action.

In the end, the moon was successfully detonated. At the same time, the planetary engine on the earth was also successfully started, and the earth successfully avoided the moon debris.

At this point, the past and future of "The Wandering Earth" have been completed.

Everyone present had different reactions to this.

The four Sheldons frowned and pondered some scientific bugs that had just appeared in the plot.

For example, if the lunar planetary engine explodes out of control, even if the moon loses power, it should move in an elliptical motion around the earth instead of falling straight towards the earth.

Jamie shrugged and said that was why he asked the four of them to serve as scientific consultants on the script.

Anyway, the plot requires the moon to fall towards the earth. As for how to make this more reasonable, that is the job of the four Sheldons.

Then Cameron also spoke.

He believes that since Jamie has considered the plot of the prequel to "The Wandering Earth" in such detail, he must also have some mature ideas about the story of Pandora in the sequel.

Cameron wants to hear it.

Anyway, they all copied the plot of the previous movie, Jamie simply copied it to the end and directly told the plot of "Avatar" after the magic modification.

The biggest shortcoming of "Avatar" in the previous life was mainly that the protagonist became a "human rapist", and the Avatar developed using human technological achievements worked with the Na'vi people to fight against humans.

Of course, this kind of American Madonna was very popular in that era.

It sounds nice to say that it is a reflection on the past colonial history, but in fact it is whitewashing the various suppressive behaviors against the indigenous people that were and are being carried out subtly.

Anyway, Jamie couldn't stand this kind of upright and upright character design, so he directly changed the male protagonist Jack to live at the bottom of the earth's underground shelter, and was oppressed and enslaved by the higher-ups living in the space station. He had already had the idea of ​​​​resistance in his heart. .

Avatar gave him a sound body, so why should he go back to being a human being who was enslaved and oppressed with disabled legs?

At the same time, in order to make Jack's behavioral motivations more reasonable, Jamie added a background setting based on the original play.

The high-level humans living on the space station had actually discovered Pandora many years ago and confirmed that it was a planet that could be transformed into a planet suitable for human habitation.

But the higher-ups hid this news from the lower-level people living in the underground shelters, just like they concealed the truth about the ammonia flash in the sun.

Because once all the people on Earth immigrate to Pandora, the top management will no longer be able to maintain the current high-pressure and centralized rule.

Therefore, the exploration of Pandora can only be carried out quietly.

After Jack arrived on the planet Pandora, he gradually discovered the conspiracy of the top leaders. They were preparing to monopolize the resources of the planet Pandora and continue to maintain their high-pressure rule over the people at the bottom of the earth.

In this way, Jack's rebellion has an additional meaning of resisting tyranny.

The rest of the plot generally follows the plot of "Avatar".

Cameron felt unfinished after listening to it, because it was obvious that the story was not finished yet.

Jack led the Na'vi tribe to defeat the Earth's advance forces. This act of rebellion will certainly lead to violent revenge from the Earth's higher-ups.

But Jamie sold it off at this time.

"What if the higher levels of the Earth are too busy to take care of themselves at this time?"

Cameron's eyes suddenly lit up.

"You mean the people at the bottom of the earth rioted again and overthrew the rule of the top leaders of the Navigator Space Station?"
