Chapter 480: Doing Things Outside the Earth
The principal is an expert in theoretical physics.....
Han Qiu had never thought that this kind-looking old man was a physicist, and he had studied such an unfathomable thing as the theory of relativity.
Han Qiu has not been good at science since he was a child, so he really can't understand the theory of relativity, which seems to be like a book from heaven.
Just like in "Interstellar", a planet at the edge of a wormhole, the flow of time is actually different from the outside world.
One hour equals seven years!
This is even more exaggerated than the Chinese legend of one day in the sky and one year on earth!
Sometimes, Han Qiu couldn't help but wonder if our Chinese ancestor was also a genius in physics, who discovered the theory of relativity so early and put forward the hypothesis of "one day in the sky and one year on the earth".
"Headmaster, you can hide it from me, if I knew you were an expert in this area, I wouldn't have to worry. Han Qiu said.
"You don't have to worry, I haven't said yes yet. The headmaster tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly, "Although your script is very hard, many things still can't stand up to scrutiny. ”
"Uh.... Science fiction movies can't be completely based on reality. As long as it makes sense, there are no bugs. Han Qiu said with a dry smile. Ah, you're an expert to compete with science fiction movies, isn't there anything to do?
Principal Yan nodded: "Okay, you tell me first, if I join your crew, what kind of identity will you give me?"
"Producer and scientific and technical consultant!" Han Qiu directly gave the same identity as the Nobel Prize physicist in his previous life, "Principal, as long as you join the crew, I will give you 5% of the final benefits of the film as a reward." ”
In the previous life, the box office of "Interstellar" was not very high, but it was not low, with a total of about 600 million US dollars.
Aside from the cost of 160 million and the theater commission, the final net income should be about 100 million US dollars.
5%, that's also $5 million, and if you change it to RMB, that's more than 30 million.
This amount is definitely not a small number for Principal Yan.
Principal Yan also silently calculated an account in his heart, according to Han Qiu's box office appeal, how could this movie have hundreds of millions of dollars and fall on his head, let alone tens of millions of RMB, right?
In an instant, the principal's heart moved.
This is a formal channel to make money, and it is to use your knowledge to make money, this money in your pocket, peace of mind!
"Han boy, how much box office do you think Interstellar can get?"
"I can't say for sure. Han Qiu shook his head, "This movie is too hard, and the trouble with being too hard is that there will be many viewers who can't stand this kind of boring scientific knowledge." Anyway, the box office can't beat Transformers. ”
"How can Transformers be compared to interstellar, it's a pure commercial film. Principal Yan said disdainfully.
"So the box office can't be compared. Han Qiu shrugged, "But in the end, the box office will not be low, and it should attract a group of science fans and fans." ”
After a slight pause, Han Qiu narrowed his eyes and said bewildermently: "Principal, believe me, this will be the hardest science fiction movie in the history of movies." And you and I are his creators!"
The hardest sci-fi movie?
The founder?
Hearing this, Principal Yan's wrinkled face showed a hint of emotion. After a moment of silence, he nodded: "Okay, this time I will accompany you to break through the science fiction world!"
Han Qiu smiled all over his face: "Headmaster, you will definitely not regret making this decision!"
.......
After getting rid of the principal, a physics expert, the biggest stone in Han Qiu's heart fell.
With the principal here, there should be no problem with the script and plot.
The following week, Han Qiu stayed at Tsinghua University, working with the president to improve the script. With the principal here, the plots and dialogues in the plot that need to be supported by professional physics theories are easy to get right, and there are no bugs.
At least from a cinematic point of view, it's perfect. But from the perspective of physics majors, some of the things in it still don't stand up to scrutiny.
For example, the wormhole and the five-dimensional space, as well as the plot of future human beings borrowing the hands of the protagonist to help modern humans change history.
These things can't be explained by physics today.
Otherwise, Interstellar will not be called a science fiction film, but should be renamed a feature film.
After finalizing the final version of the script, Principal Yan and Han Qiu went south together. Before going to the magic capital, Principal Yan wanted to go to the Cangcheng Film and Television Base in Hengdian to have a look, and experience the sky journey by the way.
In the "space capsule", when Principal Yan personally experienced the high-dimensional space designed by Han Qiu, he couldn't help but feel very shocked.
Reading the script and experiencing it myself, those are really two completely different feelings.
In the face of unknown mysteries, the individual human being is really too small.
.....
After that, Han Qiu began the casting of the movie.
The actor is an uncle-level character, and Han Qiu wants to give this role to Liu Dehua.
When he was in the film and television base before, Han Qiu mentioned to Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei about cooperating again, but it has only been implemented now.
As for Liang Chaowei, he is a villain in a cameo. In fact, it can't be said that he is a villain, but in that desperate situation where life is at stake, what this villain does is very selfish.
Secondly, the main characters in the movie are the protagonist's children, the professor, and the professor's daughter.
Regarding the protagonist's daughter, Liu Dehua recommended his teenage daughter. He also said that this is more immersive.
Han Qiu thought about it and agreed, and asked Liu Dehua if he had a son to act. As a result, it directly provoked a laugh and scolding from others.
"Director Han, my son is about the same age as your son now, why don't you let your son go?"
Han Qiu: "......"
Helpless, Han Qiu had no choice but to put this role on hold for the time being.
After thinking about it, Han Qiu decided to simply get an audition meeting.
It is much more convenient to let others take the initiative to find the door than to find them one by one.
In mid-August, just as Han Qiu was about to announce the news of the audition conference, a phone call came.
is an actress that Han Qiu is very familiar with.
"Coco?"
"Han Qiu, I want the role of Ma Murphy. Liu Keke said straight to the point.
Ma Murphy is the daughter of the protagonist Matthew, and there are three "forms" in the movie, one is a girlhood, one is a middle-aged woman, and one is a dying old man.
The first two have a lot of scenes, and the last old man has very few scenes, only a few minutes.
Liu Dehua's daughter took away the girlhood Ma Murphy, and Liu Keke wanted the middle-aged Ma Murphy.
"Oh, have you been available lately?"
"Yes. When she said this, Liu Keke was a little disappointed. Now she is also forty years old, although she is still beautiful and moving, but compared with those little young girls in the entertainment industry, there is still a gap.
The more mature a man is, the better, but it is not easy for a woman who mainly relies on her appearance.
But Liu Keke still has a huge reputation in the country, but this is now, what if in a few years? What about another ten years?
Maybe not necessarily.
"Okay, this role is yours. For old friends, Han Qiu has never been stingy with his help, not to mention that his acting skills are also very good.
"Thank you, Han Qiu. Liu Keke said softly.
"It's okay, we've been friends for many years, what are you polite to me?"
"Thank you. ”
Han Qiu rubbed his forehead, this woman, you are welcome.
Sighing, Han Qiu hung up the phone, and then called the person in charge of the company and asked him to remove the audition quota for the middle-aged Ma Murphy.
The person in charge nodded yes.
The next morning, news of the "Interstellar" audition appeared across the country through media networks.
After many years, Han Qiu auditioned in China again, which directly made the entire entertainment industry boil.
Countless agencies and celebrities have shifted their attention here.
The last time I auditioned, it was when I was in Inception, right? At that time, Hu Ge rose again with this, and he had a lot of popularity in the world. Now after Transformers, Hu Ge has become an international star.
I don't know how many domestic actors I envy. Everyone has worked hard for so long, and when they go abroad, no one knows them. Hu Ge fell on Hua Xian's thigh, and he became popular all of a sudden.
How can this be compared?
There's no comparison!
For a while, the Chinese entertainment industry was surging again.
An actor: "Let's try your luck in Huaxian, although the leading actor has been confirmed to be Huazai, but there are still many supporting roles with a lot of scenes!
A brokerage company: "Let our company's child star try the role of the protagonist's son." Follow Da Xian'er once, and in the future in the Chinese entertainment industry, he will be able to have a very good foundation. ”
A certain singer: "Ah~~ My headline was snatched away by Da Xian'er again!"
Netizens don't care about these, they only pay attention to one point: Da Xian'er has opened a new film again!
"Congratulations to Daxian'er on starting up again. ”
""Interstellar"? This is the name of a science fiction film, is Da Xian'er going to make a science fiction film this time?"
"The king of science fiction! The Matrix Trilogy and Inception have been canonized, what does Da Xian'er want to do this time?"
"Da Xian'er is preparing to be super god this time. ”
"This should be a space movie, right? Da Xian'er has never made this type of film before. ”
"Well, it's supposed to be a space movie. I don't know if you think of that theme park. I remember that there is an outer space zone in the science fiction city, Da Xian'er is not going to shoot this, right?"
"Hey, if you say that, maybe that's it!"
"Haha, I'll just say, Da Xian'er can't build a park that has nothing to do with movies for nothing. ”
"Looking forward to it, Lao Tzu has long wanted to watch Daxian make space movies, I don't know if the space in Daxian'er's eyes is the same as the space in the eyes of other directors. ”
Han Qiu's fans are boiling to the extreme, space movies!
The big fairy has made things out of the earth!
