Chapter 903 Thomson's worldview has been subverted
October 21st.
Thomson came to the door of Lu Yuan's office.
He was hesitating whether to knock on the door or not.
In fact, when he knew that he was about to take over the filming of a movie that was entirely composed of advertisements, Thomson's mood was extremely complicated.
Although it is unknown which companies will sponsor the film, what is the synonym for advertising films in the film industry?
Money trap, bad movie, vulgar, disgusting.
Countless negative adjectives well explain the reputation of these advertising films in the film industry.
This is not a good job. It might leave a stain on a popular director that can never be erased.
and……
Fifty advertising spaces!
There must be at least fifty product placements in a movie.
What is this concept?
Think about it.
Once your movie is played, what awaits you is not the plot of the movie that attracts you, but the disgusting advertisement brainwashing scene that instantly appears. After finally watching the title, and preparing to officially enter the plot, the advertisement suddenly appears again...
What happened in a while, more than fifty advertisements were interspersed in the movie which was less than two hours long...
Can movie fans still enjoy watching movies?
Can he not feel sick?
Moreover, you can keep a low profile in advance, but the movie hasn't been filmed yet. This week, Shuai announced openly in "Novi Media" that "The Truman Show" will receive fifty advertisements. As soon as this news was sent out, it was criticized by countless people.
According to other media reports, it had already circled the earth in the morning. Almost all movie fans know that "The Truman Show" is an advertising movie...
So which movie fan would foolishly spend money to watch advertisements?
Isn't this nonsense?
Everyone is not bad, okay?
After Thomson stood at the door of the office for about ten minutes, he finally gritted his teeth and knocked on the door.
"Dong dong."
"Come in"
"boss……"
"Oh, it's Thomson. Come on, sit down. I'll be ready in a minute. I just need to fill in the entire general frame."
"good."
Thomson looked at Lu Yuan in front of him with panda eyes, writing and drawing in the script seriously.
It seems the boss is serious.
The boss really wants to make this advertising movie.
Thomson's throat trembled.
He began to hesitate again.
To be honest, he really didn't want to risk his career to make such an advertising film.
Every director hopes that his career will be successful from beginning to end, and no director wants his career to be stained.
So does he.
However, he didn't know what to say.
After all, the person sitting in front of him was the most talented genius of this century, and he was also the one who single-handedly pulled him out of the quagmire and was respected by everyone. He really didn't know how to refuse.
In this way, he remained depressed for about half an hour.
When the time came after 8:30 in the morning, Lu Yuan, with panda eyes open, finally finished writing the script framework and stretched himself.
"Thomson..."
"The boss is here..."
"You seem unwilling to accept this movie?" Lu Yuan suddenly looked at Thomson with a smile, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"I...boss...if the boss thinks this can be shot, then I will definitely work hard to shoot it well." Thomson found that he did not dare to look directly at Lu Yuan, but Lu Yuan's seemingly casual words gave Thomson endless
The endless pressure made him breathless. After struggling for a long time, he finally said this.
After saying these words, he found that the breath in his heart finally became much more relaxed, and at the same time, the pressure became much lighter.
"Thomson, don't be so nervous... You actually think a lot. This is indeed a movie full of product placement. Of course, if conditions permit, more than fifty advertisements may not be enough..." Lu Yuan looked directly at
Thomson said this seriously.
"..." Thomson was silent.
He didn't know what he should say, and he didn't even understand the meaning of Lu Yuan's words.
"But this is not a bad movie, let alone a garbage movie. This is a movie that is just like "Death is Coming", which is extremely scary to think about." Lu Yuan shook his head after looking at Thomson's silent expression.
Thomson, do you think the world you live in is normal?"
"Huh?" Thomson was puzzled.
"Do you think the friends around you, your wife, your brothers and sisters, your father, and even my existence are all real?" Lu Yuan asked again.
"Boss, this...can this still be false?" Thomson shook his head. Although he thought the question Lu Yuan asked was nonsense, he felt tight in his heart for some reason.
"Have you ever thought that you are the protagonist of a reality show, and we are all actors acting together with you? The world you know is actually a world carefully created by the crew, but in your eyes
Wherever you go, there are many cameras pointed at you, and many fans are watching your daily life..." Lu Yuan's voice gradually became softer, like a devil who is good at tempting, watching mysteriously
By Thomson.
"Boss, this joke is not funny at all... There can be no such realistic plot in this world..." Thomson began to feel creepy unconsciously.
"Is the world you think is really this world? Have you discovered that the knowledge you learn is all taught to you by someone. Someone taught you that the earth is round, but in fact, the earth is really
Is it round?"
"Isn't this? Isn't the earth round? The earth is round!" Thomson suddenly gasped, and bursts of cold sweat broke out on his forehead unconsciously.
"What if the earth is square, but everyone tells you that the earth is round! You can only understand the world from books and the media, but what if I tell you that the world is all a well-planned lie? After all,
, you have never really been to space and you cannot see the end of the earth.
What shape is it? Even, I said that the United States has never actually been to the moon. I said that this is a shocking hoax. Can you refute it? When everyone says that the world is square, everyone provides so-called
The photo shows that the earth is also square, so... can you refute it?"
Lu Yuan continued to look at Thomson with a smile, and his voice gradually became softer. At the same time, his voice was filled with strong and terrifying psychological implications. This psychological implication made Thomson's hair stand on end, even suffocating him.
"I...Boss, it's impossible! This can't be like this..." Thomson's pupils shrank and he stood up from his chair in an instant!
He felt cold all over his body.
"What do you mean to refute me that this can't be the case?" Lu Yuan looked at Thomson with a smile.
"I, boss, all this..."
"This is all too real, isn't it?" Lu Yuan smiled even brighter.
"You are a director, and you should know that if a top director is willing to spend money, he can completely fake it! You have flown on a plane, and you have to refute me, but what if your flight route is from one crew to another?
Everything is set up, everyone is serving you, everyone is an actor, and they are acting with you according to the set script..." Lu Yuan slowly walked towards Thomson step by step.
go.
"Boss, this is too nonsense. This joke is not funny at all, boss..." Although Thomson showed an expression as if Lu Yuan was making him laugh, his body still kept retreating subconsciously.
If ordinary people said this, Thomson would definitely think that this person was crazy, but the person who said this to him was Lu Yuan.
The status placed there had an aura that Thomson could not question. Coupled with the hypnotic tone in Lu Yuan's voice, it slowly penetrated into Thomson's most fragile nerves.
Thomson felt that his world view had been refreshed by half.
"What if this is not nonsense but true? If you want to sleep, you don't know the dark world after you sleep, do you?"
"..."
"You think this is nonsense, but what can you say against me?"
"..."
Thomson gasped, feeling frightened.
He found that he could not speak a word.
Although Lu Yuan's series of words may sound outrageous and nonsense, if you really think about it carefully, if everyone is an actor and all the plots are set, then...
It’s scary to think about it!
"The Truman Show is just such a movie." Lu Yuan then took out the script and handed it to Thomson.
"Huh?" Thomson couldn't react to the script for a long time.
""The Truman Show" does receive a lot of advertisements, but aren't there advertisements in our lives? Look at my pen, does it have a brand? Look at this computer, does it have its own brand?
What? I plan to use them in the movie, using the most realistic arrangement to tell such a story to all movie fans..."
"..." Thomson read the script for a long time after taking it.
Then, his whole body seemed to be washed away, and he looked at Lu Yuan in great shock.
He understands!
It turns out that "The Truman Show" tells such a story!
"So, shoot?"
"Shoot! Boss! Shoot!" Thomson nodded firmly.
"Then go." Lu Yuan laughed.
"good!"
Thomson carefully put away the script frame, then lowered his head and walked out of the office in a daze.
When he was about to go out, he suddenly stopped.
"boss……"
"Um?"
"Tell me, are we really living in a movie?"
"I don't know, I often feel that I live in a movie and am the leading actor in it." Lu Yuan laughed.
"..." Thomson became even more confused after seeing Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan's existence is somewhat unreasonable to this world.
after all……
There are indeed many geniuses in history, but there are only one or two terrible geniuses like Lu Yuan in history...
This world...
Is it normal?
Is this the real world?
When he left the office and looked at the sunshine outside, he felt that the sunshine was really abnormal.
Wait, what if the sun overhead is artificial?
Thomson looked at the pedestrians around him.
Somehow, he suddenly felt strange.
This world...
Is it really normal?
What are you thinking!
The world cannot be what the boss says it is.
It's simply impossible...
Just at this moment...
"Mr. Thomson?"
"Huh?" Thomson looked up subconsciously and was stunned when he saw the person coming.
"Mr. Thomson, haha, are you okay? I'm Zad. You don't recognize me?"
"???" Thomson was stunned and looked at the skinny Zade.
He was frightened.
About a month ago, Zaid was still very tall, but now Zaid...
"Mr. Thomson?" Zade looked at the confused Thomson and suddenly felt strange.
"I'm fine, haha."
Could it be that this world is really a movie that matches itself?
This actor named Zaide...
Forgot to put on makeup now?
"???" Zade glanced at Thomson strangely and then reacted: "Oh, Mr. Thomson, you said I look like this, yes, I am probably here to perform "The Burst Drummer" better.
I have lost 20 kilograms continuously over a period of time...If the doctor hadn't said that my life would be in danger if I lost weight, I think I could have lost another five kilograms...I can almost play the music teacher now!"
"Mr. Zade, you scared me." Thomson finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hahaha..." Zaide laughed and walked towards the company.
"..."
Looking at Zaid's back, Thomson looked at the script in his hand again.
