Chapter 19: New Movies

After receiving the reply from the sea guide, Chi Bin did not choose to meet online, but booked a plane ticket and hotel after communicating the meeting place, and flew directly to Gui'an City.

This time when he came to the offline meeting, in addition to further confirming the identity of the "sea director", Chi Bin also knew that if the new film plan was real, he would not refuse this almost perfect opportunity.

Two days later, in the agreed café in Gui'an City, Chi Bin met with Haidao and his assistant.

"Mr. Chi, hello, I'm director Hai Yunxuan."

Looking at the director in front of him, Chi Bin was relieved, at least the shooting of the new movie was not a scam, but other questions kept appearing in his mind.

"Hello. Director Hai, may I ask, about the movie you are going to shoot, why do you have to meet and talk offline in the contract? ”

After having the experience of filming "Bloody Castle 2", Chi Bin also learned that the casting of "subliminal movies" is basically based on the personality and physical fitness of the actors, and the interviews of the "Castle 2" crew that he experienced before were directly selected according to the physical examination data, and there will be no offline talks at all.

But the director of the sea must meet Chi Bin once, which makes him a little unsure, can this new director in the traditional film industry not even know such basic information about the "subconscious film" industry?

"Oh, actually, I also know that the general "subliminal movie" does not require offline interviews for actors before filming. Director Hai bit the word "general" in the sentence very hard, as if he was announcing that his movie was as simple as Chi Bin thought, but then he changed the conversation and turned the topic to another thing, "Do you know the virtual game "Alien Forbidden Zone"? ”

"I don't know." Chi Bin felt that this director didn't seem to be very reliable, and he would say that his movie was "not ordinary", and suddenly he suddenly proposed something that had nothing to do with the movie, but "virtual games" and "subliminal movies" seem to be...

As if to confirm what Chi Bin was thinking, Haidao then began to talk about the special virtual technology used in this "Forbidden Zone".

"As a psychological horror game, Alien Forbidden Zone is mainly for players to explore and fight against heretics and evil gods in remote towns as investigators. And in order to make players more realistic when facing the power of evil gods, its production company has developed a very powerful technology - xenomorph phantom limb growth technology. This technology will give people the feeling of foreign objects growing in the subcutaneous muscles when facing the power of evil gods in the game, and coupled with the development of dreams based on the technology used, some players will actually grow mutated tentacles or eyes, and even see their frightened faces through these "fake eyes". ”

The sea guide paused, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and continued: "And this overly powerful technology has also led to a lot of vicious time, and many players still have the illusion of phantom limb growth after experiencing the game, and even have phantom limb pain. Eventually, the government took the game down and the production company went out of business due to a large amount of compensation fees, but there are still many players who have set up private servers to play, and I was fortunate enough to try this subversive psychological horror game. ”

"You're not going to play with me, are you?" Chi Bin looked at the sea guide in front of him, who was already a little fanatical, and thought of what he wanted to do and the reason for this interview.

"After the experience, I thought that this shocking technology can't just be buried, and the horror style of "unspeakable evil gods" created by "Alien Demon Zone" should also be more known, so I decided to use this "xenomorphic phantom limb growth technology" to make a serious movie to show the world this unknown horror aesthetic. ”

After continuing to listen to Haidao's words, Chi Bin had a new idea, "Speaking of which, the world really hasn't seen any literary works related to the Cthulhu Mythos, but the style of this "Alien Demon Forbidden Zone" sounds very similar to this style of game, and all kinds of "Cthulhu-style" novels, movies, and games in the previous life are quite well-known, and this time there may really be a problem?" ”

On the other hand, Hai Dao, an avid fan of "Alien Demon Forbidden Zone", also began to explain to Chi Bin the key goal of the offline meeting again: "So Chi Bin can let you participate in this horror movie of mine?" I chose you because your performance in "Bloody Castle 2" really amazed me, only a person with an extraordinary tenacity like you can make a perfect performance in my film, of course, due to the danger of filming, I will contract with you according to the salary of the leading actor of today's traditional commercial films, and the corresponding medical insurance and professional medical team are on standby on the shooting site. ”

Looking at the sea guide who was so excited that he stepped forward to hold his hand, Chi Bin was a little speechless, how could the three preferential treatments mentioned be so similar to buying life money, and the "professional medical team was on standby", which was unlucky.

"Okay, Haidao, you have this ideal, I Chi Bin will definitely help"

Although he complained in his heart, Chi Bin's body is still honest, mainly because it is too fragrant, although the salary of actors in the world here is not as exaggerated as in the previous life, but the salary of the leading actor in traditional commercial films is also several million, which is enough for him to spend a few years. And according to the "experience" of the previous life, this ""Alien Demon Forbidden Zone" style movie does have the possibility of a big hit, even if it is not recognized by the market, the score should not be low, this contract is really fragrant.

"Then Director Hai, when will I meet the other actors after I sign the contract."

"Huh? What other actors, the live-action actors in this movie are you. ”

“???”

——————————————————————————

After the contract was completed in the café, Director Hai gave Chi Bin a filming location, made an appointment to meet at the crew venue, and reimbursed his travel expenses and accommodation expenses by the way, so the three of them disbanded, and Chi Bin also returned to his hotel.

After entering the room, Chi Bin also began to recall what Director Hai had just said to him to explain the situation of the crew. 、

The main reason is that the film funds were co-financed and taken out by the director himself, which was not much, so only the salary of Chi Bin was prepared, and on the other hand, the director wanted to show the original game style of "Forbidden Zone", so he used AI instead of group performance, so that the inhuman feeling of the performance could be more in line with the requirements of the plot, and because this director rejected Chi Bin's request for a salary cut.

After confirming the future itinerary, Chi Bin once again focused on "Bloody Castle 2", whose ratings had begun to stabilize. Before he could open the rating website, the sound of the system came to his ears.
