Chapter 1827: The Madman's Journey (3)
"Dr. Schiller, do you see if there's anything else you need to change about yourself in this film?" Eddie leaned in halfway through the office door and waved the projector in his hand at Schiller.
Schiller, who was speaking into the air, turned his head to look, walked to the door and opened the door to let Eddie in, he glanced at the projector in Eddie's hand, and said, "It's done so quickly, didn't you say it would take two months?" β
"We've cut the original five unit stories into three, namely 'Glory of the Northern Gods', 'Iron Ambition' and 'Dream of the United Man', and now they've all been filmed, and it's just a matter of editing, so I'll show you the sample first."
Eddie fiddles with the projection equipment on the table, and after a while, the opening credits of the documentary are released, and a calm and intellectual boy begins to read the narration.
"Humanity never imagined that such a flourishing and great planet that nurtured us was just a small boat in the vast universe.
In her arms, we celebrate, we weep, we made a long history, and finally we decided to leave behind the regrets of the past and look further afield.
And those brave warriors who have the courage to climb the mast and hang the sails of human civilization also have countless stories to tell in the torrent of change in this era.
Next, let's look up from the ordinary and mediocre life together, and see how a group of amazing people standing on the same land on the other side of the world fly at an altitude of 30,000 feet, and what unknown secrets are buried under the earth's crust of 90,000 feet. β
The earth zooms in, and the lights of New York City are lit up, but the camera does not stop, shuttling between high-rise buildings, and then looking up at the thin clouds in the clear night sky.
"Have you ever thought that the clouds are the gates of the kingdom of God, the moon is the lamp of the gods, and above the high heavens where I don't know where to go, there is a group of gods who have long been recorded in human mythology?
From the ancient and distant polar tunes, we hear only a long sigh of the firmament, for the glory of the gods of the north......"
The camera instantly focuses on the incomparably magnificent and gorgeous Asgard, even if Schiller has already read the script in advance, he still feels shocked by this scene, the narration music and the picture are very well combined, and the audio-visual shock brought by it is not something that can be provided by any one alone, but is much more straightforward than abstract text.
"So this part is about Thor and Loki?" Schiller confirmed again, and asked, "You should have weakened my existence according to my request, right?" β
"Rest assured, most of the images about you are a narration in a hurry, probably Loki went to see a psychiatrist and realized what was going on."
Schiller nodded reassuringly and said, "I don't have to hide myself, but you have to understand that my plan with Nick is a little bit ......."
"A little bit of morality?! So you still know, and it's a lack of morality?! Venom roared at Schiller, "I even stayed up late for three days to write a manuscript just to glorify your immoral and broken plans as if they were a last resort for all mankind!" β
"In fact, it was not completely beautified." Eddie shook his head and said, "We can only make it as if it were a coincidence, and then amplify the goodness of the superheroes and make people feel that this may be a good reward for the good guys, rather than a few people behind it all the time." β
"Although I think this weakens your merits and is unfair to you, it may be unacceptable to ordinary people......"
Schiller waved his hand and said: "We don't need anyone's approval, it's hard to avoid misunderstandings when speaking out to the public, and being as conservative as possible would be a good start." β
"The second story is about Iron Man." Eddie spread his hands and said, "We can't completely erase your traces here, so we found an actor, but Tony also uses an actor, after all, there are some fight scenes." β
"But he gave a face-revealing interview, and the biggest difficulty was to filter out his scolding of the military a little, and when he came with Pikachu, I knew something was wrong, but fortunately he got the taste of the cake that the yellow mouse liked to eat, so it only took two days to complete the work."
"That's fine, but I think you can move this story to the first one, Stark's topic is already very high, and when the first story airs, it can be a great way to increase the number of views."
"The story about Asgard is originally biased towards official science, and in order for people to be willing to be educated, it is better to get some gimmicks first, and the history of Playboy's transformation is a good theme." Schiller analyzed.
Eddie silently jotted down Schiller's suggestion and then began to introduce the third story.
The third story is about Captain America, which begins with the very traditional American Dream, followed by war traumatic anxiety and reflections on changing times.
And the final ending does not fall into clichΓ©s, but focuses on the opposition and unity of the two identities of Captain America and Steve.
That is, although Captain America realized that his special mission in the context of a special era had ended and he could be free to become Steve Rogers, but for the sake of the people who still needed to be saved, he once again embarked on the journey of becoming one.
Schiller nodded with satisfaction and said: "This ending is very good, but I think for the attention of the next season, an easter egg formed by the Avengers can be added later." β
"The Avengers is the third season, do you want to mention the second episode? Wouldn't it be a little too fast? β
"So what's the main story of the second season?"
"Season 2 is still about three stories: 'Orphans of Brave New World' about me and Venom, and 'Good Neighbor or Bad Boy?' about Spider-Man. , and Daredevil's 'He's Like Dawn'. β
Schiller raised an eyebrow and said, "Civilian hero? β
Eddie nodded and said, "Yes, we think this can be better connected to the people, and it will also have something to do with the subsequent formation of the Avengers." β
"So the third season is about S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra and the Avengers, right?" Schiller thought back to the script and said, "I don't think there's anything wrong with this arrangement, but maybe we can expand the size of the second season to five stories and expand the other members of the Avengers." β
"We want to shoot Black Widow, after all, she is both a member of the Avengers and an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., but she is a killer after all, and I am afraid that the public acceptance will not be very high."
Schiller nodded, and didn't make too many suggestions, he felt that Eddie could handle this aspect of the problem, and S.H.I.E.L.D. was not completely unavailable, and Hawkeye and Coulson were good choices.
Then Eddie said with some hesitation: "In fact, because the front line of documentaries is relatively long, and it is mainly official funding, some big companies are not very interested, but some companies want to be able to make movies." β
"Which company?"
"Disney."
Schiller almost spurted out a mouthful of coffee, but in the end, he couldn't escape Mickey Mouse.
"What did Nick say?"
"What else can I say?" Eddie reluctantly spread his hands and said, "He'll definitely sell us for a good price." β
Schiller smiled, finished his coffee, and asked Eddie as if he had thought of something, "Although it's not yet time for a psychological evaluation, I still have to routinely ask, have you been in any trouble lately?" β
Eddie was ready to go out, he came out the door and came back and said, "Thank you for your concern, doctor, not recently." β
And when the door was completely closed, Schiller smiled and whispered, "Then you will have it soon." β
Eddie walked to the shuttle platform with the projection equipment, thinking intently about how to shoot the next documentary along the way.
Perfecting the details in his head, Eddie hopped back to his apartment.
His apartment was still on the edge of Hell's Kitchen, and although he had already moved to the center of Manhattan, it was obviously not convenient to meet the needs of Venom Walkers, so Eddie stayed here.
He walked into the somewhat old apartment building as usual, but as soon as he entered, he felt a cold wind coming from behind him, and the door of the apartment building was closed.
Eddie looked behind him suspiciously, but saw nothing, he stood there for a moment, reached for the elevator button, but the overhead light suddenly flashed a few times and then went out.
"What's the situation?" Eddie asked him inwardly, hoping that Venom would give him an answer, but Venom snorted twice and said, "I don't feel anything, what are you fussing about?" β
Through Venom's constant practice of stealing chocolate balls, Eddie can now tell if Venom is lying, and he doesn't notice anything unusual in Venom's tone, so he is relieved.
Eddie reached out and pressed the elevator button, but the moment the elevator button lit up with a faint light, Eddie faintly saw a short black figure standing behind him on the reflection of the elevator door.
Eddie turned his head suddenly, but saw nothing, and said to himself, "Face mask, some night vision." β
In an instant, his eyes were covered with a black film, and everything in the darkness became clear, but the will of the cowardly did not shift to the brightness or darkness of the environment, Eddie swallowed his saliva and decided to keep an eye on the elevator, rushing forward the moment the door opened.
"Why do you feel scared?" Venom was very puzzled and said, "Haven't you walked the way home countless times?" β
"But...... But ......"
Eddie snorted for a long time, feeling that he couldn't explain to Venom that humans are born with a fear of ghosts, and he didn't want the symbiote to laugh at him, so he didn't say anything.
Venom is a symbiote, and all the information he can receive comes from the host, but no one likes to watch ghost movies in the hosts before him, even if it is Deadpool, at most he is holding a big bag of potato chips on weekends to watch some plasma chips, he doesn't even know what a ghost is, let alone be afraid.
Eddie didn't let him read the specific thoughts, and Venom thought that Eddie was suspicious because of too much pressure to make a documentary, so he didn't take it seriously and didn't continue to ask.
The elevator door finally opened, and Eddie rushed up, but the moment the elevator door slowly closed, Eddie heard the sound of "dong dong".
He froze completely, and then, as if feeling something, turned his head to look at the reflection of the wall on the side of the elevator.
He saw a black orb at his feet, and the thump it had just made was made as it rolled over.
As soon as the elevator door opened, a cold wind rushed in, and Eddie saw the short black shadow again, and heard an ethereal call: "Uncle, do you see my ball?" β
Eddie instinctively looked at his feet, and the black shadow that looked like a leather ball turned, with hollow, bloodied eyes and a frighteningly open mouth.
"Ah!!!!!!!!!!h
Early the next morning, Eddie, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, sat on the single sofa in the S.H.I.E.L.D. psychiatric treatment room, Schiller handed him a cup of coffee and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Didn't sleep well yesterday? β
Eddie stared at Schiller and asked, "Doctor...... Do you believe that there are ghosts in this world? β
Schiller's finger paused, and then said: "I don't mean to offend, but I'm a psychiatrist after all, and I prefer to analyze the so-called paranormal events from the perspective of mental stress." β
Eddie was not surprised by this answer, he closed his eyes and leaned back on the couch and said, "I may really be too stressed, Venom said he didn't see anything." β
Schiller sat across from him and said, "I understand that you want to do your best to make a good documentary, but if you break your body, you won't be able to gain more than you gain." β
"It just so happens that I'm going on a business trip to other universes recently, we can go together and relax by the way, what do you think?"
"No, I still have ......"
Then, the moment Eddie saw the vague figure of the little boy reappearing on the glass behind Schiller, he pointed out the afterimage.
