Chapter Twenty-Eight: Preview Screening
Qiao Xiu took a primordial crystal marked with an inscription '1', and after inputting the magic into it, the image stored in the original crystal was projected in mid-air, and Qiao Xiu moved this projection to a smooth wall of the castle.
The cinema-level picture quality, which can only be enjoyed on earth, appeared in this ancient castle at this moment.
The lights went out at this moment, and only the image projected by the original spar emitted light, and Qiao Xiu placed the original spar on a table to fix it, and then returned to the 'auditorium' that was improvised with a few chairs at the back.
The filming progress of the movie "Beauty and the Devil" has been completed by 70%, and the rest is the plot of Gaston leading the town to attack the castle.
In this part of the plot, even if Qiao Xiu and the Skeleton Gong made an alliance, they had to report to the Skeleton Gong first.
After all, bringing a bunch of people to the door of other people's houses to smash the field, even if it is just a performance, you must say hello to the owner.
For this reason, Qiao Xiu used this special way to explain his intentions to the skeleton prince.
Therefore, Bone Gong gloriously became the audience of the test screening of the world's first movie, not only Bone Prince, but also a group of ghost servants under his command.
The movie played as Qiao Xiu planned, whether it was the shots, the scene portrayal, and even the lighting were very satisfactory to Qiao Xiu, and the soundtrack of the movie was played by the skeleton Gong.
At this moment, the whole castle is silent, and only the dialogue of the characters in the picture can be heard.
Many of the scenes in the movie are castles that the skeleton is familiar with, and Ciri is watching the whole part of the village.
But both Bones and Ciri watched the development of the movie with full attention, and when it came to the key plot, Qiao Xiu even heard the sound of holding his breath.
The same scene can be shot with different lenses, and the story rhythm and dialogue of the movie itself are not available in real life.
Qiao Xiu believes that the biggest charm of the movie is to tell the audience that 'there are such beautiful things in the world', and of course, the word 'beautiful' can also be replaced by other adjectives.
The essence of the movie is to let the audience experience a different life, and any intelligent creature will always yearn for a life that they have never had.
Since the film is not yet finished, the picture suddenly disappears halfway through the plot.
"What about the back? Why is it gone?! ”
Before Ciri could speak, the voice of the Skeleton Gong sounded in the pitch-black hall for the first time, and the soul fire that kept jumping in his eye sockets looked at Qiao Xiu again.
"Lord Duke, the film is not finished..."
At first, Qiao Xiu just had the idea of showing the skeleton what the movie was, so he put this original crystal in front of the skeleton and screened the unfinished version of "Beauty and the Devil".
"When will the filming be finished?"
Skeleton Gong admitted that he had begun to look forward to the direction of the plot below, and the moment the screen suddenly went black when the movie was reaching its climax, Skeleton Gong thought that there was something wrong with Qiao Xiu's original crystal, but Qiao Xiu gave Skeleton Gong an answer of 'not yet filmed'.
This was the second time Qiao Xiu had succeeded in arousing the urge of the Skeleton Gong to roll up his sleeves and beat him up.
"If the Duke agrees with those humans to enter your castle for a little walk... I was able to finish this film in two days. Qiao Xiu said.
“……”
The skeleton pondered for a moment, his finger bones tapping on the handle of the chair, as if he was hesitating because of the matter.
"Your Highness, do you want me to go to the human world to perform seriously?"
The beating soul in the eye sockets of the Skeleton Gong subsided, and he signed a pact with Qiao Xiu to get Qiao Xiu's score, and Qiao Xiu's desire for him to go to the human world to hold a concert was taken as a joke by the Skeleton Gong.
As a mobile catastrophe, he went to the city of humans? Skeleton had never heard a more terrible joke than this.
But the movie "Beauty and the Devil" touched him, and made the skeleton have a little belief that maybe Qiao Xiu can really change the way people think about them.
"Seriously, and I'm going to write your name on the end of this movie, and everyone who watches this movie will know that all the wonderful soundtracks in it are from you." Qiao Xiu said.
"Then Your Highness, you can continue, I look forward to the ending of this movie."
Qiao Xiu's answer made the skeleton make a final decision.
Qiao Xiu, who had been allowed, was about to start filming the last part, but the skeleton man held Qiao Xiu's hand again.
"Your Highness, can you tell me in advance the ending of this movie? It is... Are Belle and Prince together at all? ”
The curiosity of the Skeleton Gong, who had been silent for a hundred years, was completely aroused by Qiao Xiu, and he wanted to save the ending for the movie to be revealed after the filming, but the Skeleton Gong found that he couldn't bear that time at all.
And when the skeleton man asked this question, the other viewers around him, whether it was Ciri, the ghosts all looked at Qiao Xiu, as if they were eager to know the ending of the movie.
"Uh..."
Qiao Xiu was stared at by so many eyes, and suddenly felt a huge pressure, but in the end, Qiao Xiu still truthfully said the final result.
"Nope."
"What?!"
"The final ending is that the Demon Prince sacrificed himself to protect Belle, well... He fell into Belle's arms and died. ”
Qiao Xiu suddenly felt chills all over his body, especially when he was stared at by the Bone Male's pair of jumping soul fires, he actually had the illusion that his life might be in danger.
"Are you serious?!"
Qiao Xiu heard the most terrifying question since he met the Skeleton Prince, although the Skeleton Father did not have a good impression of Qiao Xiu before, but at least he would maintain the most basic etiquette as a subject.
But now the skeleton is completely 'If you dare to write the ending as a tragedy, believe it or not, I will be entangled in death and you will explode in an instant!' 'The stance.
Qiao Xiu remembered that some screenwriters on the earth wrote some tragic stories, which were so brilliant that the audience was moved to tears, and finally decided to send the screenwriter ten pounds of blades to show friendship.
"Lord Duke, this is a fictional story, and this... It's also for the story effect. ”
Beauty and the Beast has been adapted countless times on Earth, the most well-known being the Disney version, in addition to the French version.
And Jo Xiu made this movie to change the way humans think about demons.
Therefore, Qiao Xiu's setting of the demon in it is a prince with half human blood and half demon blood, and the prince is cursed, so he can only maintain the posture of a demon for the rest of his life, and he can only turn back into a human after he truly loves someone.
And in the end, Qiao Xiu chose to change it to a tragedy, that is, in the end, the demon fell into Belle's arms and died in order to protect Belle.
Tragedy is sometimes more profound than comedy, isn't it?
But looking at the reaction of the skeleton duke, Qiao Xiu thought that it was necessary to change it to the final failure of the curse lifting, but the demon prince was still very happy to live a shameless life with Belle in the castle.
What really made Qiao Xiu unexpect was that this Lich Lord also had a fragile girlish heart.
