Chapter 973 1073.Hot
In Nie Wei's eyes, "Assassins" is not a pure science fiction movie. According to Nie Wei's understanding, the main attribute of this movie is action, so Nie Wei's real science fiction movies now are actually only "The Martian" and "Inception".
There is a reason why Nie Wei put "Interstellar" at the end of his "science fiction trilogy".
If "The Martian" tells a story about survival on an alien planet, and "Inception" is a suspense, action, and science fiction integration, then "Interstellar" is the real pure science fiction in Nie Wei's view.
So even if its popularity and influence in the original time and space are not as huge as "Inception", Nie Wei still regards it as the finale.
The script of this movie is based on the black hole theory of Nobel Prize winner Kip Thorne. Although many of the director's own ideas are added, the scientific foundation is indeed one of the strongest in science fiction movies.
Although Nie Wei knew the story flow, he still found it difficult to understand some of the theoretical knowledge points. For this reason, he contacted Kip Thorne through various connections and asked for a meeting. He wanted to have a face-to-face conversation with this Nobel Prize winner to resolve his doubts.
Otherwise, even if Nie Wei knew the plot of the movie, he felt that he could not shoot an effect comparable to or even beyond the original time and space on the premise of only half understanding it.
A director must understand his own script in order to shoot the movie he wants.
When Nie Wei went to the United States with Zhang Ziyi and Chen Daoming a while ago, he had already visited them once, but that time they only talked for less than fifteen minutes, and more of them just chatted about some small talk. Kip Thorne gave Nie Wei two books he wrote during the conversation.
After that conversation, the two sides agreed to talk more about Nie Wei's new movie when they met next time. This Nobel Prize winner was also very interested in Nie Wei's desire to turn his ideas into a movie.
Nie Wei is now sorting out the script, more to sort out the problems that temporarily confuse him, and in the United States, the free time of Nobel Prize winners like Kip Thorne is also very precious. The agreed date is still half a month away, and Nie Wei will fly to the United States at that time to take the initiative to meet this master of physics.
"You have been busy for more than an hour, take a break." Shu Chang came to Nie Wei's study with a pot of brewed Pu'er tea, and persuaded Nie Wei while pouring tea for him.
"Well, it will be ready soon, give me another ten minutes." Nie Wei replied with a smile.
Shu Chang did not persuade him anymore, and sat opposite Nie Wei, watching him work. When ten minutes were up, Shu Chang put the empty teacup that had been drunk long ago on the script that Nie Wei had just turned a new page.
"Husband, ten minutes are up."
"I surrender to you." Nie Wei smiled helplessly. The ten minutes he said were not accurate ten minutes at all, but just an imaginary number, but Shu Chang just caught this point in his words and interrupted his work when ten minutes were up.
"Drink tea, or it will get cold." She had already drunk the cup she had just poured for Nie Wei, so she poured another cup for Nie Wei.
Nie Wei didn't mind that the cup was used by Shu Chang, so she took a sip and nodded to Shu Chang with satisfaction.
"Wife, your tea-making skills are really getting better and better."
"That's because I have a good teacher like you." Shu Chang replied with a smile, and then took the script that Nie Wei had been flipping through, and looked at it curiously: "Husband, are you going to make a new movie again?"
"Yes."
"Interstellar? It's still a science fiction movie." Shu Chang looked at the general description of the script and found that it was another science fiction movie. She originally thought that Nie Wei would start to seek transformation after filming a science fiction masterpiece like Inception.
"Assassins' Alliance is not a science fiction movie in my mind. This Interstellar is the last of my planned science fiction trilogy. The transformation will have to wait until after this movie. I want to use this Interstellar to establish my status as a science fiction movie master."
Nie Wei would not say this outside, but in front of his wife, Nie Wei did not hide his ambition. If he could produce three science fiction movies with an IMDB score of more than 8.5 and good box office, then he would be a well-deserved science fiction movie master of the contemporary era.
"When will you start preparing for this movie?" Shu Chang asked Nie Wei curiously while flipping through the script.
"In half a month, I will visit Mr. Thorne again. If everything goes well, I can start preparing for the movie in a month." Nie Wei said this, suddenly looked at Shu Chang, and smiled: "Why, are you ready to be my producer?"
Nie Wei saw that Shu Chang was suddenly so interested in his new movie, and instantly thought of a possibility.
Shu Chang did not hide it, nodded immediately, and then said: "Wait a minute."
Nie Wei watched Shu Chang hurriedly run out of the study, and did not rush to ask her the reason. He drank tea while waiting. In less than two minutes, Shu Chang came back with a notebook.
"Look, this is the notes I made when I was a producer." Shu Chang handed the notebook to Nie Wei like presenting a treasure, with both expectation and nervousness in his expression, as if a student was handing in homework to his respected teacher, hoping to get the teacher's affirmation, but afraid of disappointing the teacher.
Nie Wei was somewhat surprised to see Shu Chang's notebook, which was filled with rows of beautiful small characters. Nie Wei recognized that this was Shu Chang's handwriting, because she liked to practice calligraphy, and Nie Wei would teach her when he was free, so he was very familiar with her handwriting.
After Nie Wei turned two or three pages, his expression gradually became serious.
Because Shu Chang was very serious about this notebook.
Since Nie Wei and Shu Chang went to Hengdian for a trip last year, and met Zheng Xiaolong and Wang Xiaoping when visiting Jiang Xin, Shu Chang was deeply attracted to this husband-and-wife director and producer combination.
When she returned to the hotel that day, she told Nie Wei about her idea, and she firmly implemented her idea in the future.
Nie Wei knew that Shu Chang had specially gone to a crew to serve as a producer, but she really didn't expect that she would do it so seriously. There were more than a hundred pages in the notebook. It could be used as a career guide for some rookie producers.
"She really did her homework." Nie Wei turned a part carefully and couldn't help but sighed.
"Before I joined the crew, I bought a notebook and learned from Sister Ru every day, wrote down some key points, and then went back to summarize at night. Sister Ru also recommended me some books about being a producer, which I also read carefully." Shu Chang replied.
"Well, producer Shu, please give me more advice on the next movie." Nie Wei smiled and stretched out his hand to Shu Chang. Seeing the surprise on Shu Chang's face, Nie Wei was also in a good mood.
"So you agree?" Shu Chang held Nie Wei's hand and confirmed repeatedly.
"Of course." Nie Wei smiled and hugged Shu Chang who kept asking questions, and answered happily. Since Shu Chang wanted to do it, he agreed. At most, he would arrange a few more deputy producers to help Shu Chang. After all, there would be no problem.
And he worked with Nie Wei. Although Nie Wei had never done the work of a producer, he had been a director for so long and had made so many movies. He had never eaten pork, but he had never seen pigs run. Nie Wei had a strong learning ability. He read and watched every day. Ordinary producers might not be better than him.
With Shu Chang's seriousness, once she can stick with the crew of "Interstellar" from beginning to end, she will be able to become a qualified "housekeeper" of the crew after the filming of this movie.
Putting aside the script, Nie Wei began to seriously think about singing with Ma Dong.
The summer concert of Infinite Challenge is a big special, and Nie Wei can't just use a song to fool Ma Dong. After all, the program itself is produced by his own company. If he fools, wouldn't it be the same as fooling himself?
But when he thought about working with Ma Dong, Nie Wei was a little confused.
Before, Nie Wei said that Ma Dong would sing RAP, and he was just joking. If Ma Dong really raps on the LIVE scene, it's not a breakthrough, it's a violation. Nie Wei thinks the probability of a car accident scene may be greater than 90%.
So he still has to create a song seriously.
"But what should I write?" Nie Wei sat in front of the computer with a blank mind. For a moment, he really didn't have any good ideas. It's not that there are no suitable works, but there are too many works in his mind. For a moment, he really didn't know what to choose.
Just when Nie Wei's brows were about to wrinkle into a "chuan" character, he suddenly found that the computer desktop in front of him flashed. It turned out that the theme desktop software automatically changed the desktop.
Unlike the green mountains and green waters just now, this time the desktop directly turned into a beach and green sea. The key is that there are some very hot bikini girls. Looking at their healthy skin color, Nie Wei's eyes gradually brightened.
"Ahem!" Suddenly, a very deliberate cough interrupted Nie Wei's thoughts. Looking back, he found Shu Chang standing behind him expressionlessly.
"When did you come? You scared me."
"I arrived a long time ago." Shu Chang answered, but his eyes were looking at the computer screen, and asked: "Is it beautiful?"
"What's beautiful?" Nie Wei was stunned, and he didn't understand what Shu Chang asked.
"Does the desktop look good?" Shu Chang pouted and asked again in an emphatic tone. This time, Nie Wei understood. It seems that Shu Chang thought that he was in a daze just now because he was fascinated by the bikini beauties on the desktop and was jealous.
"It's so-so. It's far worse than my wife's figure." Nie Wei immediately gave the correct answer to this kind of "death question".
Whether it looks good or not is not the key. The key is that you must step on one and then praise the other at this time. As for which one to step on and which one to praise, I believe that husbands with a little emotional intelligence know how to choose.
Sure enough, Shu Chang knew that Nie Wei's answer was completely to please her, but most of her resentment in her heart still dissipated.
With a hum, Shu Chang was an affirmation of Nie Wei's wit.
"I suddenly have an inspiration. I'll go find paper and pen." Nie Wei could hear that the girl was still a little uncomfortable. He also understood that the other party must have misunderstood him, but this kind of thing is troublesome to explain. It is better to use actual actions to prove that he was not just fascinated by the bikini beauties on the screen just now, but really found inspiration because of this desktop.
When Nie Wei stood up to find a pen and a musical score, Shu Chang took Nie Wei's original position.
When Nie Wei returned to the room, Shu Chang was no longer in his study. Nie Wei sat back in front of the computer and was suddenly startled. The desktop that was originally a beach, green sea and bikini had now become the famous White Horse Temple in the capital of gods.
"Shu Chang, you don't have to do this." Nie Wei shouted to the door with a smile. It was obvious that this tabletop was changed by Shu Chang.
Of course, Nie Wei was not angry. Girls occasionally acted like a spoiled child, which he did not find annoying. Instead, it was quite cute, especially Shu Chang. Shu Chang was always very obedient when they were together. Occasionally, she was "rebellious", which gave Nie Wei a very interesting and fresh feeling.
Shu Chang did not answer Nie Wei, perhaps because she was also feeling guilty.
After a while, Shu Chang came in with a plate of cut fruits, watching Nie Wei write songs while feeding Nie Wei fruits with a small fruit fork.
"I was not staring at those women just now. I really suddenly saw that picture and got inspiration, so I was stunned." Nie Wei explained to Shu Chang while writing songs.
"Is this the song?"
"Yes, I plan to sing it with Ma Dong at the "Infinite Challenge" summer concert." Nie Wei wrote another verse while speaking.
"English song?" Shu Chang was surprised when she saw that Nie Wei had already written five paragraphs of lyrics, all in English. She could not help but ask subconsciously: "Can Ma Dong sing it?"
"Why can't he?"
"Ah, don't worry, Ma Dong's English is very good. He is also one of the earliest overseas students in China, although he went to Japan."
Shu Chang didn't understand. In her impression, Ma Dong was a child from a traditional crosstalk family. He might know more about Chinese studies than many people, but he might not be so familiar with foreign languages. It was also the fault of those crosstalk performers. Some of these people really had low education, and some had high education but deliberately spoke foreign languages such as English in a frivolous way for the sake of being funny. As a result, over time, the public was left with the impression that crosstalk performers had no culture.
But Ma Dong was still okay, especially after he became the vice president of Fanxing Entertainment Group in recent years, he put more effort into foreign languages. He might deliberately talk nonsense on the show, but in private, Ma Dong was actually very good in grammar and pronunciation.
So Nie Wei felt that he had no pressure to create an English song with Ma Dong. On the contrary, for the others, especially Xie Na, Nie Wei might really consider switching back to Chinese songs.
