Wang Yixue is very talented, and he is young and eager to learn. If he is trained well, he will be an effective assistant. When he received a call from Shao Shuaijun, Wang Yixue and Ma Hu were filming a commercial. Since "Crazy Stone" hit the theaters, the two people who were originally doing odd jobs,
His status has been greatly improved and he has become a director.
"Hi, Wang Yixue, are you with Ma Hu?"
"Yes, the director called and asked for a new task? Is it about "Source Code"?"
"You knew already?"
"It's so noisy on TV and in newspapers that it's hard not to understand. However, we always believe that the director can make the best science fiction movie in China. Director, please give the order." Wang Yixue said excitedly. Being able to participate in over 100 million yuan
There are not many such opportunities for films with limited funding.
As for whether "Source Code" is a success, Wang Yixue doesn't think about it at all. It doesn't matter if it fails. He is just an assistant director. In fact, Wang Yixue said he was confident, but that is a lie. The recent reports are too fierce. Not only
The media criticized and blamed Shao Shuaijun for being arrogant, and many big stars and directors also made remarks on different occasions, either directly or tactfully despising Shao Shuaijun.
Shao Shuaijun remembered it all in his heart and had no time to pay attention to it for the time being.
"Okay, tell Ma Hu to come to the capital and call me. I will send someone to pick you up."
After welcoming Wang Yixue and Ma Hu, Shao Shuaijun handed over the script to the two of them, and also listed some general conditions for the actors. For example, he planned to invite Ren Quan to play the role of the bomber, newcomer Ma Ke to play the student who is about to take the exam, and supporting actor Zhang Hanyu to play the software.
Engineer, Chen Zhenghua (the director of the factory in Stone) plays the role of doctor, etc. We also invite Huang Blog to play comedians in the movie, etc.
As the producer of the movie, Shao Shuaijun originally preferred Zhao Cheng. After all, they had a pleasant cooperation, and Zhao Cheng also made more than one million yuan through him, and everyone was happy. But now Zhao Cheng is setting up a film and television company in Hengdian and is busy.
I'm so overwhelmed that I don't have time to be a producer.
With a stroke of Shao Shuaijun's pen, Wang Yixue took up the post, temporarily taking on the responsibility of producer and preparing the crew.
And he left the trivial matters to Wang Yixue and found Wang Zhongjun. They were going to visit the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Relatively speaking, Wang Zhongjun and Shao Shuaijun were not very familiar with each other at Huayi Brothers. However, Wang Zhongjun had the greatest influence on the outside world.
Things are much more convenient.
Speaking of the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, many people may not be familiar with it. This is China's most high-end cutting-edge theoretical research center. It was established in 1978 with the approval of Deng Gong. Mr. Peng, who had two bombs and one satellite, served as the first director. No specific theories are studied here.
, but particle physics theory and related quantum field theory, string theory and quantum field theory non-perturbative effects, condensed matter theory and computational condensed matter physics, quantum physics and quantum information and quantum chaos, intranuclear quarks and atomic nuclei under extreme conditions
, research on cutting-edge issues in gravity and cosmology research, statistical physics and theoretical biophysics.
In short, this is the place closest to science fiction theory.
The academician-level national treasure of the center was naturally missed. Wang Zhongjun and Shao Shuaijun wanted to visit associate researcher Chen Bin. He is the only string theory research master at the center. Although his professional title is only associate researcher (equivalent to associate professor), he is very famous.
big.
However, in China and around the world, string theory is still in its initial stages of exploration, and many experts do not accept this theory.
String theory is the basis of parallel universe theory. The original "Source Code" is a science fiction movie based on parallel theory. However, what has been criticized is that the director and screenwriter obviously have little professional knowledge and there are too many flaws in the theory. Shao Shuaijun
One time, I asked researcher Chen Bin to help build a relatively reasonable science fiction framework.
To enter the center, you need to go through many checks. Finally, you met Researcher Chen Bin in the center’s reception room.
Shao Shuaijun simply explained his purpose: "Hello, Mr. Chen, my name is Shao Shuaijun, and I am a director. This is Wang Zhongjun, the investor of the movie. We plan to invest 70 million to 100 million to shoot a science fiction movie. In the movie
, to use the theory of parallel universes, we hope to get professional guidance from Teacher Chen.”
"Making a movie? One hundred million is used to make a movie. Isn't it a waste? If this was invested in scientific research, how much results would be achieved!" Chen Bin is engaged in research, and the funding from the top has always been very poor. When he heard about a movie, he was excited
He wanted to invest hundreds of millions, so he immediately shouted, "Making a movie is just playing the piano randomly. If I have this time, I might as well read a book!"
"Well." Wang Zhongjun sneered, "Mr. Chen, please give me your guidance. We are sincere. We are willing to invest 200,000 yuan and ask Mr. Chen to construct a theory for us. It doesn't need to be profound, just a little reasonable.
"
Two hundred thousand is not a small amount, but Chen Bin shook his head directly: "This is a waste of time, you can go."
Shao Shuaijun said in a deep voice: "Teacher Chen, I don't think making movies is a waste of time. Do you know how wide a movie's audience is? Do you know the impact a movie has on people's lives? Why does the United States always lead the world in scientific research?
On the one hand, the country is powerful, but on the other hand, it is influenced by the trend. Dozens and hundreds of science fiction movies are released in the United States every year. American teenagers have been exposed to various scientific theories since they were young. When they grow up, many people naturally
Turning to scientific research. But in China, the movies are all martial arts movies. Apart from making us full of violence, what else can martial arts do? This science fiction movie of mine may not be contributing to China’s scientific cause. Once the movie is released, many
When children see it, won’t they be attracted by the magical scientific theories inside?”
Shao Shuaijun persuaded him from the point of view of justice, and Wang Zhongjun directly promised a huge profit: "Chen Gong, once the movie is a big hit at the box office, we can use part of the profit to invest in your research."
Finally, Chen Bin nodded and agreed.
So, with the promotion of Huayi Brothers, Poly Bona, and Media Asia Variety Show, a piece of news was published in the newspaper the next day.
"Chen Bin, an expert from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, stayed on the crew of "Source Code" to provide theoretical basis for the film...Expert Chen Bin is a well-known physics expert in my country. He has received education and participated in research in Japan, Italy, and South Korea. Last year, he joined the Institute of Theory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. , is a well-known scholar who studies the string theory of cosmology. He has published a large number of theoretical works in international journals and has been confirmed to teach at the School of Physics of Peking University. I believe that "Source Code" will definitely become a novel under the guidance of Chen Bin. Outstanding science fiction movie.”
This news was just the first one. Soon, another news appeared in the newspapers.
"According to the Haijin City (referring to Tianjin) Railway Bureau, the GK231 train, the HK560 train, and the TF206 train are determined to participate in the filming of the movie "Source Code". At the same time, the original GK201 train will be leased to
"Source Code" crew, used for movie shooting."
Next, there is news from the entertainment section.
"Today, Huayi Brothers and Hongxingwu held a joint press conference to confirm that the fairy sister Liu Yifei will participate in "Source Code" as the heroine in the movie."
"Fan Bingbing's agent revealed that Fan Bingbing has signed a contract with "Source Code" as the second female lead, with the same salary as the female lead."
"Hu Sishui, spokesperson of Shao Shuaijun Studio, was interviewed by reporters and said that director Shao Shuaijun not only directed the film himself, but also acted as the male protagonist in the "Source Code" movie."
"Ren Quan personally admitted that he has been confirmed to play the villain of "Source Code"."
