“2012……”

Wu Tian muttered four numbers.

If you want to say that in the next few years, the most magical thing is probably these four numbers.

In fact, in the history of mankind, there are often some apocalyptic prophecies. Not to mention, just the most popular "1999" prophecy a few years ago has been in the limelight for a long time, and even triggered many scholars who make a living from it.

Of course, in the end, Nostradamus's prophecy did not come true, and the alignment of the stars did not lead to the end of the world, but soon a new doomsday prophecy appeared again, and that was 2012!

According to rumors, 2012 is the last year of the Mayan calendar, so there are rumors that this year is the end of the world.

As a result, rumors are quite marketable and widespread among the new generation of young people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and almost everyone knows as 2012 approaches.

Undoubtedly, the most impressive of them all is probably the disaster movie "2012".

In fact, relatively speaking, the "2012" film itself is much worse than the previous apocalyptic disaster film "The Day After Tomorrow" with the same director, although the overall scene is grand, but the connotation is too shallow. And the North American box office in the first week also illustrates this problem.

However, the topic of "2012" spread too widely, and even the overseas box office of this movie was quite good, and finally the total global box office surpassed "The Day After Tomorrow", as high as 670 million US dollars, of which 510 million came from overseas!

And this achievement, in Wu Tian's opinion, is really a bit too sorry for the "2012" so good and such a big gimmick!

Therefore, Wu Tian decided that he was just grabbing the gimmick of "2012". As for the content. Wu Tian decided to rewrite it all.

"The end of the world. Is there any way to make the end of the world ......"

Wu Tian tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa and said to himself.

"What did you say?" Zuo Xiaoyan asked strangely.

Tianyan clothing is now an international company, Mr. Zuo "just in time" to fly back to Los Angeles with Wu Tian this time, I thought that I could be tired and crooked on the road, but I didn't want this guy to talk as soon as he got on the plane.

"I'm wondering what will cause the end of the world to ......" Wu Tian said, smiled, and said, "I'm thinking about the movie script......

"Oh. I thought you had another convulsion in your head, trying to make an apocalyptic play. Zuo Xiaoyan said with a smile.

"Huh, make the end of the world?" Wu Tian pondered for a moment and said, "Artificially creating the end of the world is not in line with the prophecy of the Mayans, it should be a natural disaster that makes easier ......."

*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ********************************************************************

Wu Tian remembered that in his previous life, he had carefully read the great prophecy of Nostradamus, as well as the research results of those foreign "scholars", and learned a lot about the theory of the end of the world.

The prevailing opinion at the time was: Because in 1999, nine stars were aligned. This leads to a serious change in the geomagnetic field and a "flip of the earth" - that is, the south pole and the north pole will become two points on the new equator, and the two points in the current equator will become the new south pole and the north pole.

Imagine how terrifying the impact of the sudden turning of the earth would be?

Some people believe that the end of the world predicted by Nostradamus is not 1999, but 2012, because the original text of Nu Chatdamus says "on the last day of the century", and the so-called century is not the twentieth century, but refers to the solar age of the Mayans in a five-thousand-year cycle.

The Mayans believed that we humans were experiencing a galaxy renewal that lasted more than 5,000 years, from 3113 BC to 2012 AD. Every twenty years is a small cycle, from 1992 to 2012, which is the last cycle of the solar age, also known as the "Earth Renewal Period", during which everything will be purified and renewed, and then mankind will enter a new era.

And the "Qiankun recreation in Jiaokang" in the 52nd image of the Chinese Tui Bei Tui also points out the same time - "Jiaokang" refers to the traditional Oriental Qinglong Qisu, which refers to the Year of the Dragon, and 2012 is the Year of the Dragon!

In the same way, there is a description of the end times in the book of Revelation, which also says that mankind will go through an unprecedented catastrophe and all sinners will experience a "final judgment" and be completely destroyed. Then, mankind will enter a new heaven and a new earth, an unprecedentedly beautiful era of peace and prosperity.

So, which theory should be chosen as the structural support of your own film story?

In the original story, it does not say what the disaster was, but only shows the drying up of rivers, the movement of the earth's crust, and even the occurrence of a super earthquake, which caused a huge tsunami, and even the fact that the sea water flooded the roof of the world.

There is no doubt that this is a trick of the movie, so that no one will question the scientific rationality of it after its release.

However, in Wu Tian's view, this is also one of the biggest failures of the film, the vague theory leads to the lack of fundamental support for the whole story, and the audience seems to have more serious doubts in their hearts, and even the evaluation of the film is greatly reduced.

Therefore, Wu Tian believes that if he remakes it, this point must be solved, even if he uses a theory that has obviously been rejected by physicists, he should come up with a theory......

"Cage. My friend. How does it feel to be free? ”

Wu Tian hugged Cage warmly. Then he asked with a smile.

"Wu, BOSS, although I feel good, but I will have nothing to eat soon, you have to give me a job." Cage said distressedly.

Wu Tian also knows that Cage's life is actually not very good, this guy can be said to be one of the most depressed first-line stars in Hollywood, the reason is that he has been married too many times. In the United States, marriage is really a lifelong thing. Even if after the divorce, your ex-wife will not only have to take half of your property, but also continue to take a large amount of alimony every month, if you have several ex-wives, you will have to live like a slave for the rest of your life.

A large part of Cage's salary went into the pockets of his ex-wife, and even in order to pay alimony, he had to take on many very bad roles, and gradually he gradually fell from the hottest A-list star in Hollywood to a professional household of bad movies......

Wu Tian smiled and patted Cage on the back. He said, "Come, first taste the new tea I brought from China this time." Then we can talk about the characters in the new movie. ”

"Oh, great, Wu, I'm looking forward to it......" Cage exclaimed excitedly, not knowing if he was looking forward to the character or Wu Tian's new tea......

"This time I'm going to shoot a disaster movie, a post-apocalyptic disaster movie!" Wu Tian said while motioning for Cage to taste tea.

"Disaster movies? Haha, I knew that you really wouldn't repeat the theme of the movie! Cage said excitedly.

Wu Tian touched his nose, as if he had indeed tried a new movie theme.

"Wu, tell me what the story is this time and what my role is." Cage said.

"Well, the script is not finished yet, I can only tell you roughly that I am going to use a two-line story to tell some of the experiences of a couple in the apocalyptic disaster to set off the whole apocalyptic scenario......," Wu Tian said.

Wu Tian believes that the most important thing in a work is to show human nature, and the two most praiseworthy feelings in human nature are love and family affection.

Therefore, in a grand work, there must be a certain proportion of emotional drama, so as not to make the story seem empty and uninteresting. And only in the grand context does the love story that takes place, even if it is just a very bland love, inevitably leave a deep impression and make the work a classic......

"I need screenwriters, I need a few big-name screenwriters!"

Wu Tian asked Qi Bing.

Wu Tian knows very well that he is not a real screenwriter, at least not the best screenwriter. Even if Wu Tian is conceited, he is by no means arrogant.

Wu Tian is well aware of the production rules of Hollywood films, where no work is done by one person, especially screenwriting work, which is often the result of teamwork.

First of all, there must be an idea, and after the idea is generated, the main writer will first build a story synopsis, and then the whole team of writers will work together to revise and flesh out the story. In addition, there are professionals with related questions to answer and correct some of the more professional questions. In the end, the main screenwriter will make the final changes to the entire story, and the final version is the final version.

First of all, Wu Tian already has the idea and the synopsis of the story - in the apocalyptic environment, the different experiences of a couple, and the love story that finally escaped.

And to turn this synopsis into a plump enough to tell the entire movie for more than two hours, it takes the strength of the screenwriting team.

"Okay, I'll pick a team of writers for you." Qi Bing said, "What kind of requirements do you have?" ”

"Well, I need two people who have been screenwriters for big-budget films, one of them is good at emotional dramas, one is good at depicting big scenes, and the other is a consultant with a geological background, and it would be nice to add a screenwriter who has made disaster films......

"Okay, we have a ready-made candidate in our company." Qi Bing said with a smile.

"I've already decided on Cage for the leading actor, and I'm looking for a leading actress, I want to find someone who has good acting skills and looks beautiful." Wu Tian said, "You help me pay attention to it, there is a suitable candidate for her to audition first, and if possible, tailor-made scripts for Cage and the heroine!" ”

Tailor-made scripts, which is very common in the film and television industry, but there are not many successful films shot in this way.

But Wu Tian is different this time, because he already has the creativity, and now he only needs to fill in the details, and according to the characteristics of the actors, it is easier to perform brilliantly by tailoring the role, I believe this will add points to the movie.

Of course, the key is to be able to play yourself well - you must know that playing yourself well is the most difficult performance.

And to completely bring the characteristics of the actors to life is the best screenwriter!
