On the third day after the Lantern Festival, Dr. Chen met with the person in charge of the cooperation project mentioned by the vice president.

The other party looks like he is in his mid-twenties, exuding a calm temperament, and his eyes are full of wisdom, which gives Dr. Chen the feeling that he is like those academic bulls in the research institute, which is the precipitation after experience.

"Hello, I'm Xu Rui from Phantom Media."

The other party spoke, shook hands with Dr. Chen, and looked around.

"It's the first time I've been inside the observatory, and I've always wanted to come when I was a kid."

He smiled, lightening the mood a lot.

"I've been to the cinema to see 'Your Name' before, and to be honest, I'm fascinated by the depiction of comets in it."

Dr. Chen naturally knows Xu Rui, not only because he is an alumnus of Jianingjiang, but also because many of Xu Rui's works have elements such as the starry sky, for example, when "Your Name" was released, students visiting the observatory often asked about comets.

"I heard from the teacher that you found him and wanted to build some mathematical models of celestial bodies?"

After a brief introduction, Dr. Chan asked directly.

"That's right, we're going to make a science fiction movie recently, which will make some special effects of the universe, hoping to be supported by relatively scientific mathematical models."

"Do you need a mathematical model to make a movie?"

Dr. Chan was a little incredible.

Huaxia can be called a science fiction movie, which is generally divided into two types, disaster movies and superhero movies.

Disaster movies are generally earthquakes and tsunamis, a little mysterious is a comet hitting the earth, alien invasion, superhero movies are some people with superpowers to save the world, or develop mecha and the like, these movies are said to be science fiction, but in fact, they are just dramas with fantasy elements.

A work that really has a rigorous and rational spirit like science fiction is dull and profound, and the public doesn't like to watch it.

Over time, Dr. Chen didn't like to watch these movies very much, if he was just a spectator, he could watch them without thinking, but after studying these things a lot, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he watched them.

He originally thought that science fiction movies would be fine as long as the special effects were sufficient, anyway, the audience would watch the strange scenes of bells and whistles, so those crews would not be rigorous at all, as for the mathematical model of astronomical phenomena, it is estimated that few actors and directors know this concept.

"Yes, I have some simple examples here."

Xu Rui said, took out the tablet in his bag, and showed it to Dr. Chen.

Originally, Dr. Chen thought that Xu Rui was just trying to get data such as meteorites or comets, but when he saw the concept design draft, his eyes widened.

It was a cosmic-level civilization war, not just a battle like the fantasy battles in the movies of the past, just a war that moved the guns to the universe, but a war that truly surpassed modern human cognition.

Millions of starships make short jumps, which use the energy of stars to jump from one star to another, and this transition consumes a lot of energy from the star, causing a brief redshift in the star's spectrum, so that at the edge of the galaxy, a red band of light that is several light years long, like a red wave, swells towards the center of the galaxy.

There is also the destruction of stars.

A miniature black hole is surrounded by space dust and force field, accelerating towards the star, the hot star surface suddenly deformed when it touches the surface of the miniature black hole that has been released from the force field control, as if on a vast ocean, a deep pit with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers suddenly appeared, flames, gas, light, everything was sucked into it, and the white light spewed out from the event horizon surface of the black hole was even more dazzling than that of the star, and finally, the star collapsed, and billions of years of life came to an end in just a few decades.

These are all images that Dr. Chan could not have imagined in the past.

In astronomy, it is quite difficult to observe the birth and death of stars in detail, although in a breath, there may be millions of stars in the entire universe, and hundreds of thousands of civilizations rise and fall, but human observation methods are limited, and the Beishan Observatory has only captured a galaxy in its twilight years more than 40 years ago, and this star system is more than 100,000 light years away, in other words, this is a large and sad death that occurred more than 100,000 years ago.

"What kind of movie are you going to make?"

Dr. Chen was shocked, even if it was an interstellar war, it might not be possible to use such a magnificent picture, which was beyond human imagination.

In the past space opera-style cosmic war movies, most of them imitated the pattern of ship warfare in the old era, with dozens of warships on both sides firing at each other, and countless aircraft shuttling between them, this kind of scene is full of explosions and light and shadow, the audience is thrilled to watch, and at the same time, it is also convenient for characters such as the protagonist to turn the tide.

But really according to Xu Rui's assumption, on this scale of several light years, millions of warships are fighting, human beings are insignificant, and no matter how powerful the protagonist is, he is powerless to return to the sky.

Just imagine, on the ground, tens of thousands of people in a battle, the battle line has been stretched very long, so magnifying this scale millions of times and presenting it is what Xu Rui wants.

In this scene, even a huge warship is just an ant, which is a magnificent beauty on the macroscopic scale of nature, and a magnificent scene that countless people cannot see until they die.

Dr. Chan took his thoughts back from the distant starry sky and looked at the young man in front of him.

"We're going to make a science fiction movie, Director."

Xu Rui replied naturally.

"A real science fiction movie."

He added.

"But this kind of picture, not to mention whether the information we have here can establish a reasonable mathematical model, just making special effects should be very expensive."

Dr. Chen asked rhetorically, he probably knows why Xu Rui wants to find the vice president, this kind of scene, relying on human imagination alone, is not necessarily good-looking, but not necessarily reasonable, and if there is a scientific and reasonable astral mathematical model as the basis, then it will be much simpler in terms of making special effects, but special effects of this scale are expensive according to the production level of the academic community, let alone the film and television industry?

"It's okay, we don't hesitate to spend money in order to present the real starry sky."

Xu Rui smiled, and from his smile, Dr. Chen saw confidence and expectation.

He heard that some rich people, in order to realize their dream of flying to the universe, paid for the design and research of rockets by themselves, and Xu Rui in front of him may really be to meet his childhood vision of the starry sky, so regardless of the cost.

"Okay, there are a few students here who are working on this part, and I'll introduce them to you."

Seeing such a person who purely yearns for the starry sky, Dr. Chen was also a little moved.
