Chapter 760: Du Version of The Matrix

The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: [] The fastest update! No ads!

Even with the entire writing team in place, the writing of the "Matrix" script didn't speed up.

Because Du Caige's requirements for this script are too high.

It's almost to the point of harshness.

Of course, these screenwriters were not dissatisfied.

In their view, this will be a movie that can be recorded in history.

Being able to participate in the creation of this movie script is already the second pinnacle of their lives for them - when they can independently create such a script will be the real pinnacle.

They are eager to help Du Caige make a perfect finished product.

The day when this movie amazes the world is when they get a peak experience and when their efforts are rewarded.

Everyone is busy according to different division of labor.

Someone is designing and deliberating the lines.

Someone is refining some scene details (actually, this part is usually not done by the screenwriter).

Someone is looking for information, and it is necessary to reduce BUG and common sense mistakes in the movie.

busy and happy.

People are lazy—it may be a bit absolute to say this, but it can be expressed in another way: most people are lazy.

But even lazy people have moments when they give their all.

Of course not when you are doing something you are forced to do - such as work and making money to support your family. Although this is something you must do as a last resort, it is difficult for people to be full of energy when they are working. Just be lazy and save trouble if you can.

However, when engaged in work that is expected to have a good return - whether material or spiritual - no matter how lazy people are, they will be motivated.

In other words, if people are under-motivated to do something, it's simply that the expected rewards aren't enough.

And like participating in the creation of the "Matrix" script,

Every screenwriter is in full swing and takes the initiative to work overtime.

They are all veterans in the industry, and it was rare for them to devote themselves so wholeheartedly to the creation of a script before.

This kind of energy will remind them of their beautiful vision for the future when they made their first script, and the thrill and excitement of devoting themselves to a great cause.

The reason why they are so invested is the generous remuneration promised by director Hemingway on the one hand, as well as follow-up bonuses based on future box office revenue.

It is because they agree that "Matrix" will become a great movie, and being able to devote themselves to the creation process of such a movie script is simply helping them realize their dreams.

After assigning the tasks, Du Caige spent more energy to choose the right actors.

He is not limited to selecting actors from Great China, his new version of "The Matrix" will be a "multinational force".

In the first part of the original "Matrix", the plot is a very classic Hollywood model, not complicated.

It's just those settings, those details, and those fighting scenes that are attractive.

The unfolding of the real story has been sublimated from an "excellent and impressive commercial film" to a "magic work", and more is due to the second and third films.

In the plot of the first part, Neo is a programmer of a computer company. At this time, he is still living completely blindly in the thought world controlled by Matrix, and has no awareness of it. But Neo always feels that something is not right in this world.

Neo is also a hacker who specializes in searching for the truth of the world on the dark web. One day, the dark web expert Murphys and the goddess Trinity found Neo. After a classic dialogue, Neo learned that Matrix is ​​a virtual operating system.

In fact, the Matrix is ​​everything that human minds can recognize, but the problem is that people in it can never understand the whole picture, and you must get out of it to truly understand the truth. So Morpheus gave Neo two pills.

Choose the red pill, choose to enter the real world.

If you choose the blue pill, you will forget everything and return to the virtual world.

The protagonist, of course, swallows the red pill.

Recognizing the "real world" - the doomsday world ruled by AI robots, and knowing the truth, Neo, who returned to Matrix again, finally began to feel the liberation of his mind.

At the "Prophet"'s house, he saw a child bend a spoon with his mind, because the spoon does not exist in a physical form here, but only an idea.

Neo can do the same, but he hasn't fully awakened yet.

Until Murphys was arrested in order to save Neo, Neo finally understood Murphys' belief, insisted on rescuing Murphys, and embarked on the road of awakening.

At this time, Murphys was tortured by Smith, the agent of Matrix.

In the dialogue between Smith and Murphys, a big foreshadowing of the plot was laid. It turns out that the Matrix world has gone through many versions.

During the rescue of Murphys, Neo was killed by Smith.

But a loving kiss from Trinity wakes Neo up.

After waking up, Neo looked at the world in a different way, and was completely freed from the shackles of the Matrix. His eyes were no longer specific "objects", but the regular symbols behind all things. He has the ability to reorganize The ability of Matrix information flow, such as catching bullets with bare hands, playing Superman in the air... quickly smashed Program Smith to pieces.

This is the plot of the first part of "The Matrix".

The new version of Du Caige will retain this general framework, but all the details will be rewritten.

For example, the story of the original "Matrix" took place in the United States, but in Du Caige's new version, the scene will be more grand, because... because Du Caige has more money and sufficient funds.

"Neo" Xu Qingya and her friends will chase under the pyramids, fight in the tropical rainforest, and fight against program agents in the steel forest of Shanghai.

Even the main character's name isn't called "Neo" anymore.

Neo is the reversed alphabetical order of "The one" in English, and the word "Neo" implies that the protagonist is the savior.

But since Du Caige wants to rewrite the script in the Chinese context, of course these details have to be changed.

The role that Xu Qingya will play (although she has not yet agreed to act, but Du Caige is confident in convincing her) is called "Yi Weixin".

Wei Xin, Wei Xin.

represents change.

And her surname "Yi" actually has connotations.

Think about it, "Although Zhou was an old state, its life was restored."

It is easy to remind people of "Book of Changes".

This stalk can be understood by people in the cultural radiation circle of Dahuaguo.

The original role of Trinity is still a female character.

But it will be played by a male.

Du Caige prefers Li Minjun.

He has both a feminine beauty and a sassy posture.

Definitely more sassy than the original Carrie Ann Moss.

The appearance is also better.

The name of this character is tentatively named "Yin Yang", and those who are familiar with Dahua culture can usually quickly understand that it is a homophony of "Yin Yang".

Zhou Yi and Yin Yang are a perfect match.

However, there will no longer be an element of love between Yi Weixin and Yin Yang, but just good friends. There is a little bit of basic affection and ambiguity, but there will be no public romance.

Love is not the main line of this movie.

To use the lines of Yi Weixin in the movie: "I used to dream that the person I love is a hero of the world. I know that one day he will appear in a situation where everyone is watching, wearing golden armor and holy clothes, and stepping on seven-color clouds. Me. That was the simplest dream of a little girl. But now, I am forced to become that unrivaled hero. I know what my mission is. saved people."

With such awareness, Yi Weixin will not fall in love in the trilogy.

Although "love" is a very important element in the original "Matrix", it is Neo's important weapon against Matrix and the key to his ability to save the world.

And between "everyone" and "love Trinity", Neo chose his love Trinity.

He chose love over fraternity.

Choose one, not ten thousand.

But by saving this "one", he also saved "ten thousand".

But, again, that is the value in the Western context.

What Du Caige wants to shoot is the "Matrix", which belongs to the oriental people and belongs to the oriental value system.

Here, "the way of heaven has no relatives, and is always with good people", "the unkindness of heaven and earth regards all things as dogs, and the unkindness of saints regards the people as dogs."

The protagonist, Yi Weixin, is not without emotion, but must "forget about emotion" in order to "unity with man and nature"; only "unity with man and nature" can transcend Matrix and defeat Matrix.

After Yi Weixin was killed by Mr. Smith, Yin Yang did not wake Yin Yang up with a kiss, but committed suicide decisively, sacrificed himself, went to the realm of death, and "brought" Yi Weixin back.

And Yin Yang died in the Matrix, so his body in reality will be in a state of immortality.

The expected second part will revolve around Yi Weixin's attempt to revive Yin Yang.

As for Murphys, Du Caige wanted to find an actor of olive nationality to play him.

Then the rest of the team, there will be Sakurajima, there will be blacks, there will be Arabs.

A true multinational force.

Everyone has a thrilling story behind them.

Of course, we can't show that much in the movie, and we still need to expand the information and create the character design through the future animation, the second and the third part.
