Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Cui Geng suddenly understood Mr. Pei's intention.

"Just like "Struggle", it is actually reflecting the deep-seated contradictions of Western society and analyzing this social phenomenon. It tore the warmth and beauty of the fig leaf in Western works, so it has caused such a deep response!"

For a long time, the domestic cultural industry has been relatively weak.

Whether it is games, movies, novels, or even ideologies in certain fields, they are all in a state of being completely suppressed by the Western world.

There are many reasons, the most important of which is problems left over from history. Although many people are unwilling to admit it, this phenomenon does exist and is very serious.

The cultural output of the Western world has always existed and has had a very complex impact.

Of course, it is undeniable that there are some positive and positive factors in Western culture, and some movies will indeed play an inspiring role.

However, many people mistakenly believe that everything in Western culture is good and perfect, and even loves the house and the black. Because of the beautification of these cultural works, they have a good impression of everything in the West. This is typical of being beautified by literary works. Brainwashed.

For example, many people believe that in the United States, everyone lives in a big villa with a swimming pool, the house is cheap, the doctor is free, and the dishwasher can live the life that the Chinese dream of. This is obviously a misunderstanding.

As a developed country, the overall living standards of the people in the United States are definitely better, but it is also only the United States of the rich, the middle and lower classes and the bottom of society, their lives are still very difficult.

However, Chinese people have long accepted a large number of cultural works from the United States. Under the packaging and beautification of these cultural works, many people have the illusion that "the Western world is paradise on earth".

An important reason for the success of Struggle is that it breaks this illusion and allows more people to see the Western world from a more objective perspective, which is tantamount to deconstructing the construction of Western cultural works. Utopia".

Cui Geng instantly realized that President Pei asked himself to write superhero subjects, is it also the same intention?

Instead of letting yourself write a clichéd superhero story that conforms to the mainstream values ​​of the West, you want to deconstruct the mainstream Western values ​​like "Struggle" and write a story that reflects deep-seated problems and breaks the illusion of some Chinese people?

Once accepted this setting, Cui Geng found that many things can be matched!

Why does Mr. Pei say that it doesn't matter even if these superheroes are written to death, or even if they are dead?

Just because this is not a traditional superhero story, the superheroes in the story do not represent fairness, justice and beauty, but other things, so their death will naturally not make the audience feel extremely disgusted.

Cui Geng subconsciously thought of a question: If superheroes existed, would they behave like in the movie?

Of course, human nature has good and evil. When human beings have the power of superheroes, those who are kind become superheroes, and those who are evil become supervillains.

But is a kind superhero sure to stick to it as described in most stories?

If some more bold settings are given, if the power of a superhero is not born or mutated, but obtained through a different method, then what will the so-called superhero theme story look like? What?

Just as the West has been sparing no effort to export their "freedom" and "democracy", then this seemingly perfect system must be a perfect system?

There seems to be a similarity.

Cui Geng suddenly found the inspiration he wanted. He almost couldn't wait to come to the work area, opened a new document, and then wrote the background of the story that suddenly appeared in his mind!

...

The story, like other superhero themes, takes place in the United States.

But the story of this superhero is different from the stories of other superheroes, because in this story, the power of the superheroes is not innate, nor does it rely on mutation or currency ability.

About two hundred years ago, the first native superhero appeared in the United States.

His superpowers are derived from people's support and trust, and once people's support and trust in him weaken, his superpowers will also be reduced or even cease to exist.

But this superhero possesses many virtues such as justice, integrity, and bravery. In all historical events, this superhero has played a key role, saving countless lives, and is deeply loved by the American people.

As a result, his power has become stronger and stronger, not only has become a symbol of the spirit of the United States, but also shouldered the important task of maintaining world peace. The American people graciously called him the "captain of the world" because the Americans believed that his existence would safeguard world peace and save mankind from war.

But no matter how powerful a superhero is, he will always age and die.

Seventy years ago, the over-a-hundred-year-old World Captain was still very old. He still has the trust and support of people and still possesses powerful super powers, but his body is no longer enough to support him to use these super powers.

U.S. politicians, media, tycoons, and various personalities take turns to visit Captain World in the hospital ward, hoping that Captain World can choose someone from many carefully selected successors to inherit the superpower and identity of Captain World .

The world captain saw through their careful thoughts at a glance: obviously, different factions are coveting this kind of superpower that can affect the world pattern, and they all want to use their own chess pieces to inherit the world captain's ability and status. If this superpower falls into the wrong hands, everything will be unimaginable.

Therefore, the World Captain did not give his superpowers to any "successor" carefully selected by politicians, rich people or other forces, but sprinkled his superpowers across the country, so that every American , It is possible to become a superhero.

The strength of this power depends on the support and trust of the American people.

Captain World firmly believes that only those who possess the virtues of integrity, justice, and kindness can gain the support, trust and love of most American people.

Although this does not guarantee that all his superpowers will be concentrated on one person and exert their greatest effect, it can at least guarantee that most of his superpowers are controlled by kind and upright people, and at the same time, it will not be completely reduced to one person. Hand of bad guys.

Many people, including politicians, wealthy businessmen, and the media, tried to discourage Captain World, but Captain World was unmoved. Obviously, the rhetoric of these people is just to take the power of Captain World as their own, and they are not worthy of trust.

Captain World believes that all Americans will make the right choice.

After the death of Captain World, the American people deeply cherished him and built huge statues and monuments for him to commemorate the first and most respected superhero.

This is the background of the story, and the story really began almost seventy years after the death of Captain World.

The protagonist of the story is named Phil Simmons, a carefree, rich second generation who spends money like dirt every day.

Phil Simmons' father, Ryan Simmons, is the 150th richest man in the United States. He has a personal wealth of $4.2 billion. He started his business in real estate and has chain hotels and office buildings in many cities around the world.

Phil Simmons, like other rich second generations born with a golden spoon, is perfect in appearance. He is 31 years old, unmarried, 1.92 meters tall and has a standard white face. He is handsome and well-maintained like a model.

He is a Harvard graduate with a JD and MBA degree. His current position is CEO of Simmons Media, and he was named "40 Most Influential Business People Under 40" by Fortune Magazine.

Although his education at Harvard was obtained through a large family donation, this is not a shameful thing among the top rich families in the United States. It is both common and common.

Phil Simmons has no special ability other than driving a supercar with one hand. His company has many professional staff to take care of it. Even so, it is still on the verge of bankruptcy.

But it doesn’t matter. After all, the media company that Phil Simmons runs is only a fraction of the size of the real estate group controlled by the entire Simmons family. .com will not affect the foundation of the entire Simmons Group.

There are also many kinds of rich second generations, and Phil Simmons is obviously the one who doesn't work hard.

He is managing his own company and expanding his contacts, but more often, he still lives a luxurious life of spending time and drinking and yachting parties.

For him, he doesn't need to worry about anything at all. Anyway, his family business is enough for him to spend a lifetime at ease.

Until one day, his life changed because of the superhero.

So, Phil Simmons made up his mind that he wanted to become a superhero by all means, but to become the most powerful superhero. All superheroes who stand in front of him must do everything possible to eliminate them completely.

...

Cui Geng quickly wrote a beginning.

The background of the whole story, including the character of the protagonist, was quickly finalized by Cui Geng, and everything was very natural.

But why Phil Simmons made up his mind to become a superhero, and how he did it during the period, Cui Geng has no clue about these details of the plot.

But he is not in a hurry, after all, it is a buyout system, and Cui Geng has no creative pressure at all, as long as he slowly accumulates materials and works with meticulous craftsmanship.

Next, Cui Geng intends to watch superhero-themed movies, TV dramas, comics, and anti-superhero-themed works, as well as works that reflect US politics, and collect the materials.

These works have a lot of content. Even if you watch them intensively for eight hours a day, it is estimated that it will take at least a week to watch them. And whether it can find enough inspiration during this period and whether it can write a good summary of the story is unknown.

But Cui Geng was inexplicably full of confidence in himself, because this subject was appointed by President Pei!
