Chapter 294 Trial Printing of 'Train to Busan', Director's Cut
Bizarre lines of various colors, plus various twisted images and folded curves flew around on the projection screen, finally forming the company logo of S.L. Then, company names familiar to the people of the peninsula appeared on the screen, and then slowly dissipated.
.
The sound became noisy, the tinkling sound went from loud to low, the human voice was suddenly amplified, and the sound of the hands on the clock seemed to hit the hearts of the viewers. The picture began with Jin Shiyu's long legs wrapped in trousers.
Moved up, revealing his carefully shaved chin.
The seemingly absent orchestra quietly performs a British version of Dante's "Divine Comedy". When the sound falls, the viewers can hear the lights of thousands of houses in the world.
A cough extinguished all the lights.
"President Jin, what a coincidence. Are you going to Busan too? It seems we are really destined, hahaha..."
"President Jin, that stock you mentioned last time is such a pity..."
"President Jin, I don't know when you will be free. I know there is a Chinese restaurant that has a dish that is really good..."
...
The people around him were still making noises, but Jin Shiyu's eyes were already on his daughter. Then, a business card solved the problem, the train entered the station, and the crowds scattered around the station began to move towards the long, eighteen-year-old train.
Cars poured into the train.
As the plot slowly progresses, the representatives of the seven deadly sins in the "Train to Busan" movie also appear one by one in the eyes of the moviegoers: Jang Dong-gun, who represents sin and arrogance; Ma Dong-seok, who represents rage; Jung Woo-sung, who represents jealousy; lazy tramp;
The greedy Executive Kim; and Lin Chengxun who represents lust.
The only thing missing is gluttony, one of the seven deadly sins.
Such doubts made Gong Liu sit upright in the movie theater unconsciously. It has been more than half a year since he retired. However, in order to regain the feeling of an actor before joining the army, he rested at home for a long time.
One time when I was having dinner and drinking with Lin Chengxun, I heard that "Train to Busan" was going to be screened in advance for investors at S.L Company, so I shamelessly begged to come with him. Including him, there are a few people sitting in the S.L screening room now.
Part of it is through the relationship with Lin Chengxun to satisfy my curiosity.
"The seven deadly sins, where's gluttony?"
Kong Liu muttered, and subconsciously wanted to turn around to ask Lin Chengxun, but as soon as he turned around, he suddenly remembered the current situation, so he could only sit up awkwardly and continue to look at the director's cut of "Train to Busan" on the big screen.
.
The plot continued, and after all the characters appeared, without much delay, Lin Chengxun directly let one of the gimmicks of "Train to Busan", the source of the zombies, appear.
After a man carrying an unknown and highly contagious zombie virus broke into a moving train, the order of civilized society was completely broken. The social relations that could only be maintained by the chain of interests at the moment completely collapsed, and the operation and maintenance of human society were completely shattered.
All were broken, and now in front of everyone in the train, only the words "Escape" were left.
As human civilization collapses, death follows one after another. Human life seems so weak at this moment. If you take a step slower, you will fall into the endless abyss of blood.
Now everyone's goal is just to stay alive.
At this moment, the dark side that had been suppressed in people's hearts began to cause trouble. Morality and civilization could no longer be restrained. Less than ten minutes after praying for God's salvation, the goddess was "jealous" and led zombies to eat her.
It was completely exhausted, and there was no chance of turning into a zombie. The only remaining blood was used to paint the eighteen hell trains with a bright red color.
Civilization is useless, morality is useless, gods are useless, you can only rely on yourself for everything.
So at this time, two heroes stood out, Jin Shiyu, who symbolized arrogance, and Ma Dongxi, who symbolized rage. Even if their starting point was for themselves at the beginning, the moment they stood up, it meant their footsteps.
Stepped into the next level.
There is another thing that is also separated from the current refugee class, and that is the "jealousy" of being pretentious and regarding oneself as a god or extraordinary person.
Death begins to pervade this zombie train. The death of ordinary people is just the beginning. The death of the seven deadly sins is the beginning of the climax of the whole movie. Lust dies in flames, greed dies in lying down, and laziness dies in running out of strength.
At this point, except for jealousy, which has not yet seen any signs, the remaining seven deadly sins are arrogance, rage, and jealousy.
Soul torture unfolds in the plot, but different people make the same choice and face the same path to death. Then in the chaos, Arrogance dies to save his daughter; Furious dies to save his wife.
The two of them are the only two people who did not die according to the seven deadly sins in Dante's "Divine Comedy".
As the plot progresses, the train that symbolizes the eighteen levels of hell finally reaches the end. Apart from the zombies, there are only "jealousy", the angry wife, and the arrogant daughter left on the train.
At this point, the "jealous" dream of the god above man, the reformer of the human social system, quietly woke up, but he chose to indulge in this dream. The dream started from zombies, and he also died from zombies. The reincarnation of fate makes
Everyone present in the movie theater carefully exhaled a breath from their chests.
The plot is coming to an end, and the circle of reincarnation is completely completed with only the last bit left.
The dark and long tunnel had the two survivors at one end, and the army in full formation at the other end. The thermal weapons were ready to spray all the bullets.
The childish song of the proud daughter began to sound in the tunnel.
Slowly, the childish singing voice is getting closer and closer.
The soldier also got the superior's answer from the intercom.
The next moment, the outlines of two people, one large and one small, appeared in the eyes of the soldiers, walking hobbled, carrying the hope of living for their husbands and fathers on their backs, step by step, full of desire for life.
"boom!"
Smoke curled up from the muzzle of the gun, two gunshots were fired together, and life ended.
No one can live.
...
The breaths in the chests of all the moviegoers present were stagnated by the final gunshot. They could not accept this result. The two people who survived the zombie catastrophe and gave up everything ended up dead in the hands of the soldiers who were supposed to protect them.
.
"Sung Hoon xi..."
Cui Minxu exhaled slowly, his voice slightly deep.
"I see."
Lin Chengxun clapped his hands, Xu Shuali stood up, and presented another ending to the investors present, the ending they wanted.
At this point, the test screening of "Train to Busan" ended. Lin Sung-hoon stood up and took all the curious people he had brought with him out of the screening room and handed the screening room over to this group of "Train to Busan" investors.
"Brother, you're totally blown away!"
Lin Chengxun gave Kim Heechul a look that said "You said that" and sent Kim Heechul to buy two bottles of water. He was a little annoyed to see Kim Heechul now. This was the sequelae of being pestered by Kim Heechul to watch the preview of "Train to Busan" yesterday.
"Brother, why me?" Kim Heechul couldn't accept the result that his junior was here now, but Lin Chengxun asked him to buy water.
"Zhilong, you go too."
Lin Chengxun helped Kim Heechul. After saying this, he looked at the youngest person present with hopeful eyes.
"Little Crystal, is there anything you want to eat? I'll ask Heechul and Zhilong to bring it back to you."
"Oppa, no!" Xiao Jingshuang glanced at Jin Heechul and replied abruptly.
Kim Heechul was speechless and had no choice but to pull G-Dragon, who was snickering, and run downstairs together.
"The first ending is the director's cut?"
Lin Chengxun nodded, leaned against the wall and looked at Gong Liu, who had a heavy face, and said with a smile: "After the movie is redrawn, the Blu-ray released will be the director's cut."
"I still think the first ending is the real ending. Even if the two of them survive, they will never go back to their normal lives. No normal person would allow their neighbors or their children's classmates to be the same as before.
For survivors in a car full of zombies, the only way they can survive is to be isolated or even studied. Life is worse than death, so death is their real preferred ending; the ending of the second release is just a comfort to the public.
.”
"It's useless for you to tell me this. I have to be responsible for the investors. Directors who are too pure will not survive." Lin Chengxun said with a wry smile. In fact, I saw that Gong Liu was able to be so involved in the movie after just one viewing.
To a certain extent, he was quite happy.
"If you were really responsible for your investors, you wouldn't have placed the character of Gluttony in the movie."
"Some European filmmakers like this kind of film core, including Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, they all like this kind of film core with social discussion..."
Little Crystal raised her little head and looked at Lin Chengxun and Kong Liu discussing something she didn't understand. It was as if the movie she just watched was different from the one Kong Liu watched. Little Crystal couldn't even discover something as simple as the Seven Deadly Sins.
, not to mention gluttony, which is deeply hidden among the seven deadly sins.
"Okay, let's not talk about my movie anymore. How about you? After taking such a long break after being discharged from the army, have you regained your sense of yourself?"
"I regret it a bit. If I had been born a year earlier or a year later, I could have caught up with your "Train to Busan". I think the role of Jin Shiyu is quite suitable for me."
Kong Liu's expression was a little annoyed, but what he said made Xiao Jingshu laugh. You can regret things like your birth time~
The two chatted for a while, and after Cui Minxu walked out of the screening room with a smile and gave Lin Chengxun an OK sign, Kong Liu, Kim Heechul, Kwon Zhiyong and others left one after another, leaving only the little Crystal Pidian who was too busy every day.
Followed behind Lin Chengxun like crazy.
"Is there anything else you want to buy?"
"Oppa, am I just looking for you to ask for money to buy things?" Xiao Jingshu frowned together, looking at her like this, you can see a bit of Sika's shadow.
"if not?"
"Oppa, Ernie said that if Girl's Day hadn't come back late, they would have been able to compete in the top ten of this year's annual list. Anyway, we, a small group of functionaries, can only look at it with envy."
Lin Chengxun now understands the purpose of Little Crystal, but have they really not found their own problem? With that mysterious singing outfit, Function Group can be called the only woman on the singing stage who will not be frozen.
Tuan, what do they need to change? Do they really have no idea at all?
