China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 121 Magical modification of "Source Code" (Part 1)

There are a lot of things that need to be changed in the story of "Source Code" in this dimension of China.

The first is the emotional line.

In "Source Code", the hero and heroine are strangers, or in other words, from the perspective of the hero, the relationship between the two is strangers.

The heroine has a crush on the history teacher, the body occupied by the hero's consciousness.

At the end of the movie, the two fell in love and embraced and kissed.

If such a story is set in Europe and the United States, the audience will not notice the inconsistency, because the expression of emotions is different between the East and the West.

In European and American film and television works, it is reasonable and not against harmony for men and women to "get on top" quickly and establish a relationship quickly.

But in Eastern culture, the audience is more interested in the "foreplay" before two people establish a relationship, and they have higher requirements.

Obviously this emotional scene in "Source Code" seems too "Western", but because it is a Western movie itself, it doesn't feel inconsistent.

If this story is changed from a blond foreigner with a blue-eyed foreign face to a Chinese with black hair and black eyes, the "sloppiness" of this emotional line will be more clearly perceived.

The direct murderer also died in the train explosion, so it is reasonable and reasonable to force the military to use the "weapon" of source code.

After the train bombing, the murderer had already produced audio that leaked out of the Internet, announcing that the train bombing was just a prelude, and that soon there would be an explosion in a big city. And when you heard this audio, I was already on the train.

The bombing came to an end.

An ordinary passenger got on the bus, placed a bomb device of that size in the ventilation pipe on top of the toilet, and then calmly got out of the car. Not only did he escape subsequent pursuit by the police, but he also issued a terrorist threat and foreshadowed a larger bombing attack.

However, there was an explosion on the train, and there may be more violent attacks on metropolitan areas. Extreme force will inevitably be used to deal with it. Anyone who has ridden this train will be killed no matter where they get off.

After surveillance and investigation, it is impossible to allow the murderer to drive leisurely into the city in a van.

In order for the male protagonist to develop passionate feelings that are enough to make him kiss a stranger in these many 8 minutes, not only must the actor who plays the male protagonist contribute a first-class performance, but also must make him feel passionate about a strange woman.

The emergence and transformation of love are reasonable enough, but more importantly, it needs the help of the screenwriter.

Because the heroine only has 8 minutes.

In this way, the murderer's own death turned the entire terrorist attack into a dead end. If the country wants to remove the explosion threat faced by the metropolis, obtain the specific location of the radioactive bomb, and then dismantle it, then the most direct way is to start from this

The dead murderer obtained clues to the explosive devices hidden in the city.

The whole story became a bit creepy.

Are you treating the real-name ticket sales and taking the bus as decoration?

Let’s not talk about how the murderer brought such a large boom device onto the train. A train exploded, and someone predicted that a bigger explosion would occur in a metropolis. Passengers who got off the train at the first few stops

It’s unbelievable just thinking about it, that it’s not subject to control and investigation.

But in China, which has a completely different social organization, the audience would just think it was just playing house.

Therefore, Chen Jingxing only provided a first draft of the script for the "Source Code" project, which was improved and supplemented by a five-person screenwriting team.

In other words, the train explosion itself was a suicide attack, and the death of the perpetrator would not affect subsequent bombing attacks on the city.

The improvement and changes to the emotional line are actually just the most insignificant changes made by Chen Jingxing and the screenwriting team to "Source Code".

So the first thing that needs to be changed is to change the murderer from the wild thoughts of a pessimist about the world to the careful planning of a terrorist organization.

The male protagonist has many 8 minutes.

Do you think the security check is just a decoration?

Because the radioactive bomb has long been hidden in a corner of this city, it may be a small apartment, or it may be a cramped basement that was excavated privately.

Just set the countdown in advance, just like setting a time bomb on the train.

Therefore, if the heroine's affection and ambiguity towards the hero increase a little, the limit will be reached.

Of course, after the "Source Code" project is completed, the five-person screenwriting team also has the right to authorize it. Chen Jingxing has already embezzled the fruits of labor from another world. It would be unreasonable to exploit the creators of this plane again.

Chen Jingxing must work hard to make this story less trivial under the social organization of China.

And the executor himself died in a train explosion.

The first is the setting of bombs and murderers.

Chen Jingxing is now more or less a capitalist. He no longer works alone like he did when he made "Comet" and "Fatal Identity". Since he wants to make industrial movies, the system of industrial movies must be established first.

Even the bombs in the city are tied to the heartbeat of the executor. After the executor himself was killed in the train explosion, the countdown to radioactive bombs in the city started.

It is necessary to increase the interaction between the male and female protagonists in the script, and even increase the female protagonist's scenes and participation in the entire story line.

If it were just theft on the train, the country might not use much force to deal with it.

An ordinary person who is desperate for human society, even if he is a chemical engineer, can create such a powerful bomb device in China, even a dirty bomb containing radioactive elements, and can do it alone, forcing the authorities to use science fiction

Equipment handling, this is all child's play.

In order to eliminate this weird feeling, the emotional line between the male and female protagonists must be two-way, and the male protagonist must be the main one.

Single-person crimes are different in the Chinese version of "Source Code".

In addition, there are two settings that have to be changed.

If this story happened across the ocean, the audience would just think: "Well, it's a bit exaggerated, but it's acceptable."

This was the opinion put forward by some screenwriters when Chen Jingxing handed over the story to the screenwriting team for improvement.

But Chen Jingxing rejected this change, because if the heroine was directly set as the girlfriend of the history teacher, then the story would become that the heroine's boyfriend was "seized", and he knew nothing about it, or had something to do with it.

Notice it but still accept it happily.

In order to make this emotional line more logical, some screenwriters have proposed to directly set the heroine as the girlfriend of the history teacher, which is a step further than secret love and ambiguity. In this way, only the male protagonist has feelings for the heroine, and the female protagonist

The Lord will completely become a tool on the emotional line.

How to make a dead man speak? Or is it possible to make him speak?

Then only the source code is available.

Therefore, the military had no choice but to activate the source code and let the protagonist use the 8 minutes of the cycle to find the murderer and obtain clues from him to eliminate the threat of urban explosions.

And this setting also solves another area that needs to be modified - the military source code project in the original version that seemed a bit villainous to the male protagonist.
