Chapter 106 Shocking the Audience

"Dear friends who have come from afar, please take a seat. The movie will start soon."

After a round of polite words, Gu Zhongyu walked down the stage and sat down, ready to enjoy the movie with everyone.

There are many stars here today. Fortunately, Gu Zhongyu was careful in advance. He did not let any girl who had a relationship with him or was about to have a relationship with him come over. Even when Xixi and Shishi wanted to come to support him, he refused verbally. Otherwise, this premiere would become his funeral in a minute!

Alas! Why didn't the time-travel god give me a system golden finger, or something like Huangdi Neijing, Yunu Xinjing, etc., so that I could deal with these goblins?

As the lights went out, the first public screening of "Ball Lightning" finally began.

The bustling audience also quieted down.

As the LOGO advertisement of Zongheng Pictures ended, the movie began. Gu Zhongyu had already seen the feature film, and now he mainly listened to the opinions of the audience.

Yang Mi was watching it very attentively. This was the biggest production she had ever made in her acting career (except for The Mermaid Empire). She had also turned down a lot of film contracts for it. Now she was afraid that the quality of the film would not be up to standard and her efforts would be wasted.

Seeing Yang Mi's serious look, Gu Zhongyu was amused. He remembered the little tricks he played at the last National Drama Festival. Wouldn't it be more convenient to do it in a dark movie theater this time?

So, soon Yang Mi felt a hand on her thigh.

"Stop it, there are so many people here!" Yang Mi really admired Gu Zhongyu, the old man, who always liked to play these exciting things.

"I just saw that you seemed very nervous! I wanted to comfort you."

In fact, Yang Mi's worry about the failure of "Ball Lightning" was really unnecessary. She had already starred in many bad movies, so what if she had one more?

It was not just Yang Mi who was worried, but also Liu Cixin, the author of the original novel. This was his first novel to be adapted for the big screen. If it flopped, I'm afraid no one would touch science fiction for a long time. Moreover, the copyright of his novel was sold to Zongheng. If the movie really failed, he would have no regrets.

So he concentrated on watching the scenes in the movie and compared them with the content of his novel to see how high the restoration was. Fortunately, the filming of the section from the death of the male protagonist Chen Guang's parents to his college was quite good.

Experts look at the doorway, while the directors below pay more attention to the filming techniques and narrative rhythm of the movie. At this time, Jiang Wen, who was sitting in the audience, was having a heated discussion with Hong Kong director Wang Jin.

"What do you think of Teacher Gu's movie?"

Jiang Wen occasionally made money standing up, and spent most of his time in the mountains. Wang Jin has been kneeling to beg for food, and he is well fed. Although the direction is different, his professional ability is first-class. He wants to hear the comments of Wang Jin, who has higher commercial achievements.

"Very good. I thought he would start the movie in the same way as Hollywood, using gorgeous special effects to attract the audience. I didn't expect that he would use suspense, slowly revealing the secrets and arousing everyone's curiosity. It was a different approach."

Many people don't like Wang Jin. He has made good movies, but compared to bad movies, there are indeed too few, so everyone remembers Wang Jin, the "King of Bad Movies". But he not only makes bad movies himself, he also supports other new directors and invests in literary directors such as Xu Anhua. These are all good stories. Wang Jin does not have the ability to create trends, but he is best at going with the flow and taking advantage of the situation. His adaptability is the best in the world. From the perspective of industrial development, people like Wang Jin are the backbone, and the number of people he supports is simply countless.

At least Gu Zhongyu thinks that Wang Jin is quite transparent. This person is vulgar, but not pretentious. Compared with some directors who despise the audience's garbage, he is a hundred times more sincere!

At this time, the movie showed the male protagonist Chen Guang returning to his hometown after a long absence. He found that the paintings left by his father had been re-detailed, the house was clean as if someone had cleaned it, and there were hair residues on the sink. With the weird water organ sound effect, this scene directly had the effect of a horror movie!

"Fuck! I got goose bumps watching it. Isn't it a science fiction movie? How did it become a ghost movie?"

Jiang Wen, a big and strong man, was a little scared, and so were other audiences. Some timid girls grabbed their boyfriends' hands and even shrank directly into their arms. For a while, many male compatriots present gave the director a thumbs up in their hearts, and did a great job!

However, these little scares aroused the audience's interest even more. After all, there are too few such weird and terrifying plots in domestic movies. The fake ghost movies that have been selling well in the box office in recent years are not as exciting and scary as this.

As the plot progressed to the trip to Mount Tai, the story also began to enter the first climax. The short-haired Yang Mi was heroic and her appearance also made the audience in the audience shine.

But when the biggest special effect in the movie, ball lightning, appeared, no one was in the mood to pay attention to it.

"Oh my god, this special effect is good! Made by Hollywood, right?"

"Finally, the theme is here~ my lightning."

"Oh my god! Is this 3D? Why is this lightning ball flying towards me?"

"Is this actually shot by the crew? The storm on the top of the mountain looks very real!"

The first appearance of ball lightning was not long. As the male and female protagonists chased it in the wind and rain, it quickly disappeared, but the realistic special effects made the audience realize that this is a conscientious domestic science fiction.

Don’t underestimate the special effects of these two or three minutes. In fact, tens of millions of production funds have been burned. In order to achieve the ultimate lightning effect, hundreds of servers were used to operate simultaneously from 3D modeling, element special effects, scene synthesis, sound and picture synthesis, rendering and export, and the value of each rendering server is around hundreds of thousands.

Of course, you get what you pay for. The final effect of the film, even if it is a real rolling mine, is just like this!

Originally, Gu Zhongyu was entangled for a long time about whether to release it during the Spring Festival, because the Spring Festival seems to be more suitable for family-friendly movies, and comedy types have greater advantages. But now seeing the audience on the scene from shock to excitement, he knows that this is a sure thing!

As the protagonists and their group went to the research base, Ding Yi, played by Zhou Yiwei, appeared, and some mysterious phenomena about ball lightning were gradually solved.

It turned out that all the people who died in ball lightning, including the parents of the male protagonist Chen Guang and Zhang Bin’s wife Zheng Min, were Schrödinger’s cats, in the state of life and death at the same time in uncertainty.

Normal people can never see them, because their collapsed state is death, and they can only exist in a state of survival with a certain probability in the quantum state.

When we look at them as observers, they will collapse into their urns or graves.

Those lost lives may be lingering around us. When we "don't look", they are by your side. When we "look", they are just a tombstone.

This is why the male protagonist encountered a series of strange phenomena when he returned home. It turned out that the parents in the quantum state had been at home all the time. They were close at hand, but they could never meet, but you could feel their presence.

This setting is really novel and the brain hole is too big!

Coupled with the BGM "Pursuit" released at this time, the combination of pictures and music, many viewers felt a tingling sensation when they saw this!

This is the unrestrained imagination that only excellent science fiction works can have!

This is the shock that hard science fiction brings to people!
