Thank you kakuwinter, lazy indifference, southern wind and rain war, small fifth floor, book friends 1403140748 five great rewards!

This book is not the same as other books, because Xiao Ai does not plan to make up the whole book one movie after another, but to intersperse some other things between the movies, which directly leads to the rhythm is indeed a little slow, and Xiao Ai will adjust it later, but generally maintain what he wants to write, please bear with me.

——

"This Man is from Earth", an ultra-low-budget sci-fi film adapted from this novel, received a high score of 8.1 on IMDB.

But viewers who have seen the film have mixed reviews, and there are almost no neutrals, who either like it or are disappointed.

The reason for the big disappointment is that there are not many scenes in the whole film, and it is full of a lot of dialogue.

Those who like it insist that the film jumps out of the template of science fiction movies that rely on lasers and metal to create special effects, and instead focuses more on spiritual science fiction than visual science fiction.

The film is less than 90 minutes long, and from beginning to end it is almost a talk show with the participation of several Harvard professors.

There are only two scenes needed - inside the house and outside the house, and if Chen Tian remembers correctly, the total investment does not exceed 10,000 US dollars.

It's about a 35-year-old Harvard history professor named John who suddenly quit after a decade on the job, much to the bewilderment of his colleagues.

For this reason, his colleagues met at his house temporarily, hoping to get his explanation.

But John's reason came as a surprise to his colleagues, as John claimed that he was immortal, had lived for 14,000 years, and could not stay in one place for more than 10 years, or his secret would be discovered.

He also told his colleagues that he was actually a caveman and that he didn't sail with Columbus just because he didn't think he was an adventurous person.

The Van Gogh-style painting at home was given to him by Van Gogh, who said he had smallpox, yellow fever, and plague.

He survived for 14,000 years, so he had seen the Earth's ice age, hunted mammoths, and even been the leader of a primitive tribe.

He also practiced with Shakyamuni, and even said that he was Jesus.

This is almost the problem around which the whole film revolves, and just sounding like it is enough to make people feel abnormal, and they will subconsciously think that they have encountered a madman or a psychopath.

Let all the people who listen to you say crazy things believe that everything you say is true, and this is the highest level of madness.

Because you are crazy and impeccable, the evidence is exhaustive, the logical logic, and the bland tone of your voice, all of which make up this miracle of this man from Earth.

The first thing people who have seen this movie feel is to think, will it take the initiative to let you choose to believe or not to believe?

Chen Tian has seen this film, and most people who like it feel the greatness of this movie.

Like most low-budget films, creativity is indispensable if you want to get good reviews and shoot better, and this is the case with burying alive, and this film is even more so.

However, unlike being buried alive, the idea of this film comes entirely from the lines.

If you want to make your lines thoughtful, logical and reasonable, and withstand the scrutiny of the audience, Chen Tianzhi said that this is not easy.

Although he is very familiar with this film in his mind, he knows that he needs more in-depth research to fully achieve the effect of the original film and even progress, and writing the script is the most important thing.

Thinking that the little beauty of Sunshine was about to be cast and filmed, Chen Tian could only temporarily write down the idea of "This Man is from Earth".

After taking out his mobile phone and writing this idea on the memo, Chen Tian decided to read the original book again.

Scarlett in the bathroom took half an hour to take a shower, and with a hint of wet long hair hanging over her shoulders, she pushed open the bathroom glass door and walked out.

Chen Tian was completely fascinated by this original book, and his whole mind was thinking that Ruhe could write the closest or even better script, completely unaware that Scarlett had left the bathroom.

Looking at Chen Tian, who was reading seriously, Scarlett couldn't help but pout, and subconsciously looked at herself again: "Am I that bad?"

The sound of the bedroom door being closed pulled Chen Tiancong back from thought: "Have you washed it?"

"Well, go wash it. Scarlett's voice came from inside the room.

Putting down the book in his hand, Chen Tian stood up.

After simply taking a change of clothes, he walked into the bathroom, and the heat left by Scarlett's shower just now had not yet dissipated.

Chen Tian didn't know where he offended Scarlett, and the two of them didn't go out to shop at night but stayed in the hotel, and even the dinner was directly brought in by the waiter.

Chen Tian, who was sleeping on the sofa, looked out the window, carefully recalling the short period of one and a half months in his mind.

was buried alive and sold well, and married a sexy goddess like "Little Monroe" Scarlett Johansson, it seems that he has achieved more success than many people who can't get it in three years, five years, or even ten years.

Such an achievement is enough to make many people proud for a lifetime, but Chen Tianzhi said that all this is far from the beginning, and he successfully entered the door of the film world with 14 years of memories more than others.

But if he doesn't work hard, then in fourteen years, he will be exhausted.

Chen Tian can imagine what the media will say about him when he can no longer shoot excellent works after 14 years, which is not what he wants.

"Justin, did you enjoy the charm of our Windy City last night? "Jack, who came to pick them up, was extra welcoming.

"I was so tired yesterday, and when we woke up, it was already twelve o'clock in the evening, and I thought that I would be on the show today, so I ......" Chen Tian shrugged helplessly.

"It's a shame, but you can still go shopping after recording the show today, if you're not in such a hurry to go back, of course. ”

"I'm going back to casting, and she's going to go to the set, so it's a pity. ”

"It's a pity, but I think there will always be a chance to come in the future, this is Oprah's script for you, today's theme is 'Love, Dreams and Success', the show will generally revolve around this script, you can think of the answer in advance. ”

Chen Tian took the script, handed Scarlett a copy, and the car started quickly.

When they arrived at the TV station building, Chen Tian and Scarlett still needed to do a simple makeup, and at the same time, they were also left with about half an hour to memorize the content of the next show.

Scarlett and Chen Tian sat backstage, and they needed to play later, and the host Oprah, the most successful woman in almost the United States, was on stage.

"I was a little nervous. ”

She's been on a lot of shows, but this time it's not the same for her, even if she's already thinking about the questions she's going to answer in advance.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Chen Tian gave Scarlett a reassuring expression.

"This is Oprah live, welcome everyone to watch my show in front of the TV, we always have to talk about something in each episode, and I want to talk to you today about love, dreams and success.

Each of us will have our own love, we all have our own dreams, and we will also enjoy different successes on our own life path, some people are just a small step of success, some people are a big success, but everyone will have success when it is just a big and small.

So in my opinion, there are no eternal losers in the world, but there are some small successes that you ignore. ”

Oprah, who was wearing a black women's suit, looked calm and confident, and Scarlett admired it from the bottom of her heart.

"Can I ask anyone who has recently been to the theater to see an unbelievably low-cost film buried alive?" Oprah said with a smile as she saw the audience members raising their hands, "It seems that many people have seen this film, and I don't think I need to introduce this film."

And today our guests are Buried Alive Director Justin Chan and his wife and Buried Alive star Miss Scarlett Johansson, let's welcome them. ”

Oprah clapped her hands, and a poster of a live burial appeared on the LED screen behind her.

Chen Tian stretched out his hand, Scarlett hesitated for a moment, put her hand up, and then held it tightly.
