"Dr. Schiller, look at the part about you in this film. Is there anything else that needs to be changed?" Eddie leaned half in from the door of the office and waved the projector in his hand at Schiller.
Schiller, who was speaking to the air, turned his head and glanced. He walked to the door and opened it to let Eddie in. He glanced at the projector in Eddie's hand and said, "The shooting was finished so quickly.
Will it take two months?”
"We cut the original five unit stories into three, namely 'Glory of the Northern God', 'Hearts of Steel' and 'Dream of the United Nations'. Now all filming has been completed, only editing is needed, so first
Look at the samples."
Eddie was playing with the projection equipment on the table, and soon the title of the documentary was played, and a calm and intellectual boy began to read the narration.
“Human beings have never thought that such a lush and great planet that has nurtured us is just a small boat in the vast universe.
In her arms, we celebrated, we cried, we created a long history, and finally we decided to abandon the regrets of the past and set our sights further away.
And those warriors who have the courage to climb the mast and hoist the sails for human civilization also have countless stories to tell in the torrent of changes in this era.
Next, let us raise our heads from the ordinary life and see how a group of magical people standing on the same land on the other side of the world fly at an altitude of 30,000 feet and fly under the earth's crust of 90,000 feet.
What kind of unknown secrets are buried underneath."
The earth gradually zoomed in, and the lights of thousands of houses in New York lit up, but the camera did not stop, it shuttled between high-rise buildings, and then lifted up to look at the thin clouds in the clear night sky.
"Have you ever thought that the clouds are the door to the Kingdom of God, the moon is the lamp of the gods, and that high in the sky where you don't know where to go, there are a group of gods that have long been recorded in human mythology.
From the ancient and distant polar tunes, we only heard a long sigh, for the glory of the northern god..."
The camera instantly focused on the extremely majestic and gorgeous Asgard. Even though Schiller had read the script in advance, he was still shocked by this scene. The narration, music and pictures were combined very well, and the audio-visual shock was not among them.
Any item that can be provided individually is much more straightforward than abstract words.
"So is this part about Thor and Loki?" Schiller confirmed again and asked: "You should have weakened my existence in accordance with my request, right?"
"Don't worry, most of the scenes about you are just a narration that rushes through it. It's probably that Loki went to see a psychiatrist and realized what happened."
Schiller nodded with confidence and said: "I don't have to hide myself, but you have to understand that Nick and I have a little bit of a plan..."
"Is there such a little bit of evil?! So you guys know it, and it's a little bit of evil?!" Venom roared at Schiller: "I even stayed up late for three days to finish the manuscript just to beautify your evil plans.
It is a last resort for all mankind!"
"In fact, we haven't completely beautified success." Eddie shook his head and said, "We can only try our best to make it look like a coincidence, and then amplify the good qualities of the superheroes to make people think that this may be a good thing for good people.
, rather than there really being a few behind-the-scenes people who have been pushing all this."
"Although I think this weakens your achievements and is unfair to you, ordinary people may not be able to accept it..."
Schiller waved his hand and said: "We don't need anyone's approval. It's difficult to avoid misunderstandings when speaking to the public. Trying to be conservative would be a good start."
"The second story is about Iron Man." Eddie spread his hands and said, "We can't completely erase your traces here, so we found an actor, but Tony also used actors. After all, there are some fights in this part.
play."
"But he accepted a face-to-face interview, and the biggest difficulty was to filter out his remarks about the military. When he came with Pikachu, I knew something was wrong. Fortunately, he got the wrong yellow one.
Rats like the taste of the cake, so it only took two days to finish."
"That's no problem, but I think you can move this story to the first one. Stark's topic volume is already very high. When the first story is broadcast, it can greatly increase the number of views."
"Stories about Asgard tend to be official science popularization. In order for people to be willing to receive education, it is best to create some gimmicks first. The story of playboy's transformation is a good theme." Schiller analyzed.
Eddie silently wrote down Schiller's suggestion, and then began to introduce the third story.
The third story is about Captain America, starting with a very traditional American dream, and then dealing with war trauma anxiety and reflections on the changing times.
And the final ending does not fall into the cliché, but focuses on the opposition and unity of the two identities of Captain America and Steve.
That is to say, although Captain America realizes that his special mission in a special era has ended and can freely be Steve Rogers, for the sake of the people who still need to be saved, he once again embarks on a journey of uniting as one.
.
Schiller nodded with satisfaction and said: "This ending is very good, but I think in order to attract attention for the next season, an Easter egg about the formation of the Avengers can be added at the end."
"Avengers is in its third season, do you want to mention the second episode? Isn't it a bit too fast?"
"So what is Season 2 mainly about?"
"The second season still has three stories: 'Orphans in a Brave New World' about me and Venom, 'Good Neighbor or Bad Boy?' about Spider-Man, and 'He's Like Dawn' about Daredevil."
Schiller raised his eyebrows and said, "Public hero?"
Eddie nodded and said: "Yes, we think this can better connect with the people, and it is also related to the subsequent formation of the Avengers."
"So the third season will be about SHIELD, Hydra and the Avengers, right?" Schiller recalled the script and said: "I think there is nothing wrong with this arrangement, but maybe the second season can be expanded.
Change it to five stories and expand on other Avengers members."
"We want to shoot Black Widow. After all, she is both a member of the Avengers and an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., but she is a killer after all. I'm afraid the public's acceptance will not be very high."
Schiller nodded and did not make too many suggestions. He felt that Eddie could handle this problem well, and SHIELD was not completely unbeatable. Hawkeye and Coulson were good choices.
Then Eddie said with some hesitation: "In fact, because the documentary front is relatively long, and it is mainly official funding, some big companies are not very interested, but some companies hope to make movies."
"Which company?"
"Disney."
Schiller almost spit out a mouthful of coffee, and finally couldn't escape Mickey Mouse after going around in circles.
"What did Nick say?"
"What else can I say?" Eddie spread his hands helplessly and said, "He will definitely sell us at a good price."
Schiller smiled, finished his coffee, and asked Eddie as if he had thought of something: "Although it's not time for psychological evaluation yet, I still want to ask as a routine, have you encountered any trouble recently?
?”
Eddie was already ready to go out. He walked out of the door and poked his head back and said, "Thank you for your concern, doctor, there haven't been any recently."
And when the door was completely closed, Schiller smiled and whispered: "Then you will have it soon."
Eddie took the projection equipment and walked to the shuttle platform, thinking intently along the way about how to shoot the next documentary.
Continuously perfecting the details in his mind, Eddie took the shuttle back to his apartment.
His apartment is still located on the edge of Hell's Kitchen. Although he has long been able to move to the center of Manhattan, it is obviously not convenient there to meet Venom's need to have a meal on the side, so Eddie stays here.
He walked into the somewhat old apartment building as usual, but as soon as he entered, he felt a cold wind coming from behind, and with a "dang" sound, the door of the apartment building was closed.
Eddie looked back suspiciously, but saw nothing. He stood there for a while and reached out to press the elevator button, but the light above his head suddenly flashed a few times and then went out.
"What's going on?" Eddie asked him in his mind, hoping that Venom could give him an answer, but Venom snorted twice and said, "I didn't feel anything, why are you making such a fuss?"
Through Venom's continuous practice of stealing chocolate balls, Eddie can now tell whether Venom is lying. He didn't find anything unusual in Venom's tone, so he felt a little at ease.
Eddie reached out and pressed the elevator button, but the moment the elevator button lit up with a faint light, Eddie vaguely saw a short black figure standing behind him in the reflection of the elevator door.
Eddie turned around suddenly, but saw nothing. He said in his heart: "Mask, use some night vision function."
In an instant, a layer of black film covered his eyes, and everything in the darkness became clear. However, the coward's will did not change depending on the brightness or darkness of the environment. Eddie swallowed and decided to stare closely.
Take the elevator and rush up as soon as the door opens.
"Why do you feel scared?" Venom said very puzzledly: "Have you not walked on the road home countless times?"
"But...but..."
Eddie choked for a long time, feeling that he could not explain to Venom that humans were born with a fear of ghosts, and he did not want the symbiote to laugh at him, so he said nothing.
Venom is a symbiote, and all the information he can receive comes from the host. However, none of his previous hosts liked to watch ghost movies. Even Deadpool, at most he would hold a big bag of potato chips and watch some plasma on weekends.
He didn't even know what a ghost was, let alone be afraid of it.
Eddie didn't let him read his specific thoughts. Venom thought Eddie was under too much pressure to make a documentary and became suspicious, so he didn't take it seriously and didn't continue to ask questions.
The elevator door finally opened, and Eddie rushed up. But the moment the elevator door slowly closed, Eddie heard a "dong dong dong" sound.
His whole body froze completely, and then, as if he felt something in his heart, he turned to look at the reflection on the side wall of the elevator.
He saw a black round ball next to his feet, and the thumping sound just now was made when it rolled over.
As soon as the elevator door opened, a gust of cold wind rushed in. Eddie saw the short black figure again and heard an ethereal call: "Uncle, have you seen my ball?"
Eddie instinctively looked to his feet, and the black shadow that looked like a ball turned around, with empty bleeding eyes and a horrifyingly wide mouth.
"ah!!!!!!!!!!!"
Early the next morning, Eddie, who had heavy dark circles under his eyes, sat on the single sofa in the SHIELD psychological clinic. Schiller handed him a cup of coffee and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Didn't you sleep yesterday?"
?”
Eddie stared at Schiller and asked: "Doctor...do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
Schiller paused with his finger, and then said: "I don't mean to offend, but I am a psychiatrist after all, and I prefer to analyze so-called supernatural events from the perspective of mental stress."
Eddie was not surprised by this answer. He closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa and said, "I may be really stressed out. Venom said he didn't see anything."
Schiller sat across from him and said, "I understand that you want to try your best to make a good documentary, but if you damage your body, it won't be worth the loss."
"I happen to be going on a business trip to other universes recently. We can go together and relax at the same time. What do you think?"
"No, I still have..."
Then, the moment Eddie saw the blurry figure of the little boy reappearing on the glass behind Schiller, he clicked his head out of the afterimage.
