"I'll go back and write the script as soon as possible, and then I'll trouble you to help me check it. ”

"No problem, I'm going to trouble you then, my thoughts aren't like you're fully mature, I'm just a thought, I always feel like I'm going to grab something, but it's always a little bit off. ”

"Can you tell me, maybe I can give a little thought, there is an old saying in Chinese 'three stinkers are better than one Zhuliang', isn't it?" Chen Tian said with a smile.

"It's actually a bit like you started out, when the protagonist wakes up and finds himself trapped in an abandoned toilet, but I have another person, but it's also in a sealed environment.

One of the big props was the chainsaw, but I didn't think about the specifics, but one thing I wanted to focus on creating a flesh-and-blood scene that would give the audience a crazy visual impact. ”

Wen Ziren's words are not exactly the feature of the Chainsaw series, but also confirm that Chainsaw is still just an unformed idea.

At this moment, Chen Tian had an idea, that is, he couldn't miss this almost the most lucrative low-budget series in the history of cinema.

"This visual impact alone is enough to attract a large audience, but the blurred thrill of flesh and blood seems to be lacking. ”

"Yes, the blurring of flesh and blood is only superficial, and now my thoughts still lack a soul, a film without a soul is absolutely impossible, and most American horror films are like this.

To put it mildly, it's a bloody and brutal realistic shot to make a lot of money at the box office, but what I'm going to do is different, I want to find a good idea, but it always feels like it's a little bit worse. ”

"It takes your time, and maybe inspiration will come knocking at some point. ”

Wen Ziren pointed to his head: "I know the Dao, but you must know that the depressed feeling of the Dao is very uncomfortable."

So I'm going to Las Vegas to give myself a break, and maybe I'll be able to get inspired in the head when I get back to Los Angeles. ”

"Actually, I have an idea, why not try another way for what to do, and now excellent horror thrillers are nothing more than to make the audience feel the fear of death, the unknown, and loneliness.

So that the audience can substitute into the psychological state of the characters in the film and experience what fear is, as long as it is done, it is an excellent horror film. ”

"Yes, that's the status quo, you must have something to think about. Wen Ziren's eyes were full of excitement, and he felt that Chen Tian might be the one who could let inspiration hit his brain.

Under the threat of death, the protagonist has a contradiction between self-perception and identity, resulting in madness and fear, just like the formation of a second extremely evil personality. ”

"A very evil personality, a question of the inherent goodness of human nature, as Frangenstein shows?"

"Yes, but we still need to work on this foundation, forcing ordinary people to make the decision to destroy others and themselves against their will in a deliberately set desperate situation, all in order to survive.

In order to survive, he had to do this, even if he himself was unwilling, and always gave him a choice between life and death. ”

Listening to Chen Tian's words, Wen Ziren was excited: "Wow, Chen, you are a genius absolute genius, what is in your brain, I already feel the inspiration knocking on my head, as long as I gently pull it again, it will come in." ”

"I have to write it down, the human mind is always forgetful, and if I forget that, I think I should find a place to fix myself. Wen Ziren took out a small notebook from his pocket and quickly wrote on it.

What he said to Wen Ziren was mixed with his own understanding, but it was indeed something that a horror film urgently needed, just like Wen Ziren himself said, blood brought only the surface.

In the same way, "Buried Alive" is a suffocating enclosed space and helplessness on the surface, while the soul integrates and amplifies a large amount of information, and then completes the story of life and death, faith and trust, burial and salvation beneath the surface.

With the surface and the soul, then the rest of the representation decoration, that is, the use of the script's lines and the camera.

Chen Tian has studied "Buried Alive" more than a dozen times, and always feels that something is missing at the bottom, even if he can add new highlights to the previous shooting, he still feels that he still can't fully bring out the despair to hope and then to despair.

Looking at the scenery flashing quickly outside the window, Chen Tian closed his eyes, just like he said to Wen Ziren that inspiration might come knocking on the door at any time, and at this moment Chen Tian found the missing point.

In the original film, there are repeated close-ups of mobile phone batteries running out, but there is no close-up again at the end of the last film, which is where Chen Tian has always felt that something is almost something.

Now Chen Tian is thinking about giving the protagonist a close-up shot when the apology of the guan member comes from the other end of the phone, and then giving the phone a two-second close-up shot of the battery running out and automatically shutting down, in this shot, the desperate eyes of the protagonist buried in the sand are included until the mobile phone screen is completely extinguished.

Although it is only a close-up of about two seconds, such an increase will undoubtedly give the audience a more desperate impact, and can even achieve the finishing touch.

Thinking of this, Chen Tian couldn't wait to return to Los Angeles and write the script and storyboard script in detail as soon as possible, and then start filming immediately.

And Wen Ziren next to him also wants to improve his ideas as soon as possible, and then turn his ideas into film and put them on the big screen as soon as possible.

"It's the most rewarding journey of my life, but unfortunately it's only 100 minutes. ”

"Me too, I guess you won't forget what you promised me, right? If nothing else, I'll send you the script tomorrow, and then you'll come over and help. Chen Tian pursed his lips, "What I want to make clear is that I am a poor man, so don't expect me to pay you much." ”

"You stingy fellow, I won't pay you if I want your help then. Wen Ziren and Chen Tian hugged each other, "I can't wait to see your script, see you tomorrow." ”

"See you tomorrow. Chen Tian waved his hand and left.

Back to the rental house in Chinatown in my memory, it was the house of Grandma Wang, the director of the orphanage, Chen Tian grew up in the orphanage before the time, and Grandma Wang treated him like a biological grandmother.

His rental house is also a bedroom in Grandma Wang's house, and Chen Tian doesn't know what she is for, she has no children and no wife.

He has lived here since he grew up, and Chen Tian only has to pay Grandma Wang $200 a month in rent, which is much cheaper than other places.

"Xiaotian, are you back, are you tired, are you hungry, I still have a little pudding cake you like to eat. When she saw Chen Tian coming back with her suitcase, Grandma Wang immediately asked with concern, although Chen Tian was not her own grandson, she was like her own child to Chen Tian.

The Grandma Wang in front of him is the Grandma Wang, the only difference is that she is younger, here Chen Tian feels the love of the elders, and at this moment seeing Grandma Wang, Chen Tian's mood has become better.

"Grandma, I'm not hungry right now, but you keep it for me, and I'll eat it in the evening. ”

"Okay, I'll keep it for you, hurry up and rest. ”

"Hmm. Chen Tian picked up the suitcase and returned to his room.

Chen Tian's room layout is very simple, there is no good decoration, there is a sleeping **, a wardrobe, a TV is facing **.

Leaning against the window is a long desk, and to the left of the desk is a desktop computer, facing the window.

Next to the computer is a simple bookshelf full of books with raw edges.

Putting down the suitcase, Chen Tian immediately turned on the computer without packing his things, he wanted to complete the script of "Buried Alive" as soon as possible.

This script is the source of the first pot of gold in his life, and only by completing this script can he take the first step.
