At the end of March, the long period of "League of Assassins" in China finally came to an end, and the final box office was 1.576 billion, setting a fabulous record.

Many media have said that this film is a leap forward in the production of Chinese films, describing this as a film in line with international standards, which proves the strength of Chinese films in production.

However, just when the media praised "League of Assassins", Nie Wei, as the director and star of this movie, fell into trouble.

He didn't know what he should do with his new film.

It's not that he lacks creativity, just because there are so many movies in his head, there are enough materials for him to choose from, but it's like being confused, and Nie Wei's few ideas that pop up in a short period of time finally make him feel a little inappropriate.

Some of them belong to the theme is very good, but it is very difficult to adapt, because this kind of movie has obvious regional characteristics, and it is really not easy to adapt, even if it is finally adapted, I am afraid that it will be filmed and tasteless.

There are also works that Nie Wei was interested in at first, but felt that it was not good after a few days.

In short, this matter has become a problem for Nie Wei, mainly because the results of "League of Assassins" are so good that even Nie Wei feels a lot of pressure.

If nothing else, if the new movie is too much worse than the first "League of Assassins" at the box office, it is guaranteed to cause criticism from those media.

After all, the higher you stand, the easier it is to fall, and if Nie Wei doesn't want to fall, he must choose a work that he is satisfied with.

Shu Chang looked at Nie Wei who was in a daze at the TV, and felt a little distressed, how many days have it been, Nie Wei hides in the study every day when he goes home, even if he comes out to watch TV, he is in a trance.

She just felt that Nie Wei was putting too much pressure on herself, and the strings were too tight.

Thinking of this, Shu Chang picked up a plate of cut fruit plates, walked to Nie Wei, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze, and after putting down the fruit bowl, she also sat down next to Nie Wei, wrapped her arms around him, and leaned her head on Nie Wei's shoulder.

"Husband, what do you want about a new movie?"

"yes. Nie Wei replied absentmindedly.

"Don't think about it yet, I cut oranges, apples, and washed strawberries for you, you eat some fruit first, after all, work and rest are combined." Shu Chang said coquettishly.

Being made so troubled by Shu Chang, Nie Wei obviously couldn't think about it, in fact, he didn't have a clue in his head, so he simply listened to Shu Chang's words and ate some fruit first.

Just when Nie Wei was about to pick up a piece of apple, a piece of news suddenly popped up on the TV, which immediately attracted Nie Wei's attention.

At 20:06 p.m. on March 28, the Tiangong Zero Space Laboratory was launched at the Jiuhe Satellite Launch Center, and the chief engineer of Huaxia Manned Space Science and Technology said in an interview with reporters that Tiangong Zero is a milestone in China's space exploration, the first real space laboratory in China, and plays a vital role in China's future development of the space program. ”

On the television, a man in a lab uniform who looks to be in his forties or fifties talks to reporters.

"The purpose of launching the Tiangong Zero Space Laboratory is to certify key technologies for the construction of the Huaxia space station. The chief engineer also talked about the process of the next Huaxia space program, including the docking with the Shenzhou manned spacecraft, and the docking of the Tianzhou cargo spacecraft.

It can be seen that when the chief engineer said these words, there was a sense of pride in his words, after all, there are only a handful of countries in the world that can have this kind of space technology, and now Huaxia, from the laggard at the beginning, has now become a small handful at the top of the pyramid in this field.

Nie Wei was very happy at this time, partly because of another leapfrog in the country's space technology, and partly because after reading the news, Nie Wei finally had an idea that made his heart move.

That's the space theme!!

Nie Wei had been limiting his thinking to the earth before, but he forgot that the mystery of space also has a high attraction to the public.

For example, "Star Wars", the latest film on the space theme from '77 to '05, has had a total of six movies released in theaters, and each of them has performed very well at the box office.

Moreover, the space theme is not limited to the earth, there is a lot of room for imagination, and there are many places that can be adapted, which will hardly cause disharmony with the original script.

And when he thought of the theme of space, Nie Wei's head suddenly popped up with at least three works with excellent word-of-mouth and box office.

The first thing that came to Nie Wei's mind was "Gravity".

Mainly because I saw the news just now, the Tiangong Zero, this space station also appeared in the movie "Gravity", and even became the key to the heroine's safe return to Earth in the end.

The reason why the plot is arranged this way is that one is an acknowledgment of China's space strength, and the other is that it also wants to please the audience in China, you must know that Huaxia at that time was already the second largest box office in the world after the United States.

And what Nie Wei then thought of was the work "Interstellar", which had a super high reputation in the original time and space.

This work has a score of 9.2 on a film review website called Petal, which is in the top 20 of the century's best films, and most importantly, its performance at the box office is also not weak.

The North American box office is nearly 200 million, and the overseas box office results have exceeded 400 million, and the audience in the mainland of China has contributed nearly 800 million Chinese coins to the box office of this film, accounting for nearly one-fifth of the total box office of this movie.

For a very 'literary' space-themed movie, the box office performance of "Interstellar" even surpasses "Gravity".

As for the third movie that Nie Wei thought of, it is known as the space version of 'Robinson Crusoe', which is also "The Martian" with a high reputation and high box office.

In this film, the worldview goes beyond the space technology that the earthlings have mastered for at least thirty years, and in this film, they have built a spaceship capable of traveling in the sky, and they have also established a long-term support base on Mars.

And this movie tells the story of a botanist who lost contact with his team and was stranded on Mars after a huge sandstorm on Mars, and had to rely on the only resources at hand to survive.

The reason why it is said to be a space version of Robinson Crusoe is because the two are indeed very similar.

They are all left alone in a deserted place, and they are also challenged in terms of survival, and they have to come up with all kinds of ways to keep themselves alive until the day of rescue.

The difference is that the two sides live in different locations, Robinson Crusoe is still on Earth, and "The Martian" has rushed to Mars.

And the most charming point of this movie is that even if the place where the male protagonist is located is Mars, the whole film is actually more about telling the story of how the male protagonist fights against nature from beginning to end.

This film does not show off those space technologies from beginning to end, but more often tells about the desire of human beings to survive in a harsh environment, as well as the mentality in the face of desperate situations, it is a science fiction movie with very ideological connotations.

There are fewer exciting fights, but it brings the audience a feeling of 'fighting with the sky'.

These three movies are all excellent, but Nie Wei still has to make a choice as soon as possible, and it didn't take five minutes for Nie Wei to take the lead in making a choice to eliminate, that is, "Gravity".

Although this film is really good, compared with the other two, this film is actually inferior to the other two works in terms of connotation and plot.

Especially compared with the same type of "The Martian", the survival process of the heroine of "Gravity" is actually somewhat boring, far less exciting than the days that Mark spent all the way to survive in "The Martian".

And in the choice between the two works of "The Martian" and "Interstellar", Nie Wei was really a little hesitant at the time.

Shu Chang on the side looked at Nie Wei, but didn't disturb him, seeing Nie Wei's state Shu Chang knew that Nie Wei was thinking again, and the joy between his eyebrows made Shu Chang even clearer, Nie Wei must have a clue, so instead of persuading Nie Wei to eat any fruit, she also carefully picked up the remote control on the table and turned down the sound of the TV, for fear that this sound would also affect Nie Wei.

For nearly half an hour in the following period, Shu Chang looked at Nie Wei in a daze, carefully looking at his straight sword eyebrows, carefully looking at his dark and deep eyes, carefully looking at his tall nose bridge, and the corners of his slightly upturned mouth.

Shu Chang just looked at it like this, obviously it was a face that she had seen for several years, but she didn't get tired of seeing it at all, every time she carefully observed Nie Wei's facial features, she would always have a feeling of envy in her heart, feeling that Nie Wei's facial features, whether they were combined together or taken out alone, were so delicate and beautiful.

and Nie Wei's skin, which is even more delicate than that of a girl, Nie Wei said that this is because of the practice, but Shu Chang doesn't believe it, after all, there are so many people who learn martial arts, why is Nie Wei's only personal skin good, Shu Chang feels that most of this is thanks to the genetics of Nie Wei's mother Su Qing.

You must know that Su Qing is in her fifties, but her skin is still very tight, and she looks like she is in her early forties at most.

Just when Shu Chang looked at Nie Wei with a stupid look in his eyes, Nie Wei finally retracted his thoughts and made his own decision.

But the first time he came back to his senses, he saw his wife looking at him like a little nymphomaniac, and he couldn't help but be happy.

"Shu Chang, do you want to hear the new story I want to film?" Nie Wei asked.

Hearing this, Shu Chang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately replied, "Yes!"

"Let's go, go to the study!"

Since that day, Nie Wei has locked himself in the study, the company does not go, and he does not answer the phone, he is completely in a state of retreat and creation.

After Wang Zhonglei learned about this, he also immediately issued a notice in the company, not allowing anyone to disturb Nie Wei.

With this notice, these people in the company also know that Nie Wei has started to create new works again, but the content of this work doesn't even know Wang Zhonglei, everyone is like a cat scratching in their hearts, for a period of time, many people are thinking about what kind of type Nie Wei's new work will be.

And the only person who knows the story created by Nie Wei can only accompany Nie Wei's comfort at home.

It's not that no one is trying to ask Shu Chang about the content of Nie Wei's new work, but it's a pity that Shu Chang responds to everything with no comment, no matter how good the relationship is, it's useless, in Nie Wei's affairs, Shu Chang has always been very principled.

In this way, ten days have passed.

When Nie Wei appeared in the company again, everyone's eyes almost looked at the kraft paper bag in Nie Wei's hand, and everyone knew in their hearts that the kraft paper bag contained Nie Wei's new movie script nine times out of ten.

But what kind of movie did Nie Wei write, what is the content of the story, of course, for many actors in Huayi, how many role opportunities are there in Nie Wei's new movies, and who among them is so lucky to be selected by Nie Wei?

And the first time Nie Wei arrived at the company, he went to Wang Zhonglei to discuss the investment in new films.

Wang Zhonglei had long known that Nie Wei would come to the company today, so he instructed the secretary early in the morning, and Nie Wei opened the door directly to him when he arrived, and when Nie Wei arrived at Wang Zhonglei's office, Wang Zhonglei was making tea, and when he saw Nie Wei approaching the office, he hurriedly greeted.

"Nie Wei, come on, this year's newly harvested Longjing in front of the Ming Dynasty is definitely the best sprouts of those acres of tea fields in Longjing Village, you must like it. Wang Zhonglei said.

Soon after the Qingming Festival, the tea before the Ming Dynasty also began to go on the market, Wang Zhonglei naturally will not miss it, this Longjing before the Ming Dynasty was bought by him out of the relationship, a total of half a catty, but the price is really expensive, it is a full 800,000 yuan, but even so, there are many people who want to pay for it and can't buy it.

Nie Wei picked up the teacup and smelled it, the fresh fragrance of Longjing was tangy, just this aroma, Nie Wei was sure that the tea that Wang Zhonglei bought was indeed the top Longjing before the Ming Dynasty, and it was definitely a few acres of tea fields near the spring in Longjing Village, and only the tea produced by those acres of tea fields could brew such a positive Longjing fragrance.

Nie Wei took a sip of tea gently, and suddenly felt the fragrance of his lips and teeth, and then nodded to Wang Zhonglei with satisfaction.

"Brother Zhonglei, I made the script, you can take a look first. ”

"Just waiting for your words. Wang Zhonglei didn't care about drinking tea at all, he kept staring at Nie Wei, to be precise, staring at the kraft paper bag that Nie Wei put on the table casually, that was what he was looking forward to the most, so when he heard that Nie Wei finally allowed himself to read the script, Wang Zhonglei didn't say a word, and immediately couldn't wait to reach for the kraft paper bag.
