After Wang Shang watched "Alien 1: The Origin of the Engineer Titans 1", he couldn't calm down. This idea was too exciting.
Especially the last few questions, although they do not point out the origin of the giants, are very fascinating and full of suspense, making people want to find out.
Then Wang Shang stopped reading and began to dictate it to these creative writers.
Through their dictation, Wang Shang quickly learned about the entire alien system.
The origin of humankind - In order to control the cultivation of aliens, the engineer giants began to cultivate humans and became the creators of human beings - gods. Humanity followed the footsteps of gods and searched for the origin of humankind, but found the giants who were almost exterminated.
Family (Prometheus).
The origin of aliens - a higher-level life civilization. A warrior specially bred for combat, a parasitic, born warrior who absorbs the host's genes and evolves infinitely. Because he could not control it, he was wiped out by the life civilization.
The origin of the Engineer Titans - a more advanced life civilization. The purpose of creating the Titans was to cultivate aliens. When the Titans developed to a certain stage and searched for their own origins, they misplaced their perceptions, worshiped the aliens fanatically, and began to cultivate improved aliens.
The origin of the Space Predator Predator - a higher-level life civilization. Born warriors with extremely advanced technology, they are used by higher-level life civilizations to annihilate the race that controls the remaining aliens.
In other words, higher-level beings are trying to cultivate a kind of warrior-alien.
The engineer giants are a by-product of cultivating aliens (just like the giants created humans to cultivate aliens).
As for the Predator, it is a means of controlling aliens.
"We believe that when making movies and comics, we should not publish these settings, but hide them, and set the plots of novels, scripts, and comics within the boundaries of these settings."
"After readers and audiences see these novels, movies, and comics, they will feel suspense because the origin is unclear. This will arouse their thinking and exploration!"
After listening to the entire system they described, Wang Shang felt that it was okay. Although there was no explanation for the 'higher life civilization', at least there were no bugs at the level of the three major life races.
After the entire system is set up, writing a novel will be easy. As long as the plot does not deviate from the setting, you can write it however you want.
"Now that the setting is ready, how many novels have you written?"
Tang Luo quickly replied: "We have written three books so far, one is Alien, one is Predator, and one is Alien and Predator."
Then she slowly told Wang Shang these three novels that could be adapted into movies.
The first novel is about what happened on the interstellar ship "Nosmo".
It was a large commercial transport ship with a crew of seven on board. The spacecraft received a set of signals midway. According to the instructions received, the crew changed their flight and went to find out the cause of the incident.
The team members sent to the ground came to a primitive planet called LV426 and discovered the wreckage of a spacecraft. The crew had long since died and became fossils. However, many large balls similar to insect eggs were found in the bottom compartment.
But at this moment, the third commander, Lieutenant Ripley, who was on the mother ship, had deciphered the true content of the signal, which was a warning signal.
At this moment, the creature in the egg, the Facehugger, attacked a team member. It destroyed his protective clothing, sneaked into the human body and parasitized, and finally broke out of the chest and became an alien...
Then the second one, about the Predator.
In the Magic City in 2005, the cruel predator Predator came to this urban jungle to play hunting games. Bizarre murders happened one after another. The deputy captain of the Magic City Police Department vowed to bring this mysterious murderer to justice.
He was brought to justice, but he unexpectedly became the target of a monster hunt. At the same time, agents and task forces from the National Security Agency were also investigating...
There is also a third novel, about Alien vs. Predator, in which an archaeological team organized by a billionaire goes to Antarctica and discovers a pyramid beneath the surface of a whaling station...
Wang Shang listened to them one by one, maybe it had something to do with what he said when he assigned them the task. These three movies are a bit similar to the movies in the previous time and space, and they feel pretty good. They are quite suitable for movie adaptations.
"Okay, you continue to write the fourth novel. The requirements are still the same. It has a strong visual sense and can be easily adapted into a movie. At the same time, you have to assist the special effects team in completing the design of these alien and predator models."
"From the form of a facehugger to the embryonic form in the chest, the juvenile form that bursts out of the chest, and the forms of various stages after growing up... There are also Predator warriors, and models of each equipment must be designed.
At the same time, it should be rich..."
…
Just when Wang Shang and others were discussing the alien system, several major production groups in Shanghai announced shocking news.
After research, Hanhai Group decided to reach a cooperation with Singularity Literature Network, the largest online literature company in Shanghai, to adapt a popular fairy novel into a fairy-themed movie. The specific content is that the protagonist has a tragedy that annihilates his family, and then disappears.
The story of Luoshandong, who learned unparalleled martial arts, went back to take revenge, and finally lived a carefree life of cultivating immortality.
Beihai Film and Television is similar. It is also cooperating with Singularity Literature Network to adapt a hot fantasy film. The specific plot of the novel is that the protagonist has a tragic murder and is accepted as an apprentice by an expert. After completing his studies, he goes back to take revenge...
.
Their shooting plan will start in July and August, and they will use the best technology and funds to create a large-scale movie. The production time will last more than a year, and the post-production will be sent to Hollywood to participate in the production.
Special effects production.
When Wang Shang saw these announcements, he almost vomited three liters of blood!
"Holy crap, are all online novels so stupid nowadays? Why are they all about massacres of families, and you come back to take revenge after completing your studies??"
"What about the waste material stream? Where are the annulled marriage stream? Where have you been?"
It’s no wonder that Wang Shang vomited blood so much. A similar plot like falling into a cave to obtain magical powers due to the tragedy of killing his family would definitely have been sprayed all over his body if it were shown in the previous time and space. The plot was too bloody.
Hanhai Group and Beihai Film and Television naturally didn't know about Wang Shang's complaints. In their opinion, the novel they were interested in was so popular and pursued by countless novel fans, which meant that its market was absolutely vast.
Believe the masses, this is what they think.
Wang Shang also quickly realized this problem and quickly went to the Singularity Chinese website to check out those novels.
Sure enough, the entire online novel level is still at the primary stage. There is no infinite science fiction flow, no biochemical apocalyptic flow, no prehistoric flow, and no flow of divorced engagements, waste materials, golden fingers...
All the protagonists are geniuses!!
Only then did Wang Shang realize that his vision was so forward...
A sense of intellectual superiority is rising again~~~
Subsequently, Datang International also announced a new film plan, combining it with online novels to prepare a science fiction film about Gundam's struggle for hegemony in the future world.
Tang Zongshi called soon: "Ashang, you have to check my movie plan to avoid problems."
Wang Shang was surprised: "Ah? Aren't you afraid that I will leak the secret?"
When Tang Zongshi heard this, he laughed loudly on the other side of the phone and said, "You and I still can't believe it. Come over and check it out for me when you have time."
"Okay, I'm free now."
Half an hour later, Tang Zongshi and Wang Shang left work early and went to a teahouse to taste tea, accompanied by a screenwriter from Datang International.
"Ashang, let me introduce to you. This is our famous science fiction film screenwriter Qin Tian from Datang International. He is now the chief screenwriter in charge of this science fiction film."
"Hello!"
Wang Shang and Qin Tian shook hands and became acquainted.
Then Qin Tian and Wang Shang introduced the content of the movie in detail.
In the future generation of technological machine Gundam, Gundam begins to be used on a large scale to expand the starry sky of human civilization, and the protagonist begins a life of Gundam combat in a Gundam academy. The creativity of Gundam naturally comes from Japanese comics.
"There will be several large-scale mecha challenges in the movie. The protagonist will continue to advance through battles all the way, and finally become the number one in the academy."
"Of course, friendship, love, competition, etc. are inevitable in what happens at school..."
After Qin Tian finished the introduction, he looked at Wang Shang with questioning eyes, hoping to gain Wang Shang's approval.
Tang Zongshi's expression was similar.
"A guy with a height of several tens of meters? How big is the academy if it can hold a competition..." Wang Shang couldn't help complaining, but in the end, considering the current level of creativity, this script is pretty good.
Wang Shang thought for a while, then finally raised his head and said: "Now there is a basic question. With the current film technology, can a movie be made of Gundam? It is as high as ten floors. How can you shoot it? If you shoot
You're young, aren't those Japanese comic fans going to spray you to death?"
After Tang Zongshi heard this, he quickly replied: "Originally I didn't want to do this, but several companies have fairy tale and fantasy shooting plans, and their investment will not be smaller than this..."
"And I have already contacted Industrial Light and Magic in Hollywood. It can be completed with their technology, but it requires a very large investment. The cost of special effects production has reached 100 million yuan!!"
"One hundred million yuan? Haha..." Wang Shang suddenly smiled strangely, leaving Tang Zongshi and Qin Tian a little confused.
Wang Shang explained to them: "At the current level of the United States, 100 million people will never be able to make a big mecha scene, unless it is crudely made, or it has an effect similar to that of a cartoon... If it can be done and it is really done,
A scene like this Gundam battle would cost at least several hundred million, and 100 million is definitely not enough."
"Don't worship them too much. They also have many shortcomings..."
Tang Zongshi was still dubious in the end, while Qin Tian simply didn't believe Wang Shang's words.
