Chapter 1162 Multi-version ending
The BBC documentary team brings together the most interesting model making experts, craftsmen, machinery experts, electronic technology experts, photographers and more on the planet.
They exhausted their minds and opened up unprecedented worlds for the audience.
Of course, shooting humanistic documentaries does not require such advanced technology, nor does it require staff to sleep in the open or encounter wildlife or natural disasters.
The most important thing is to deeply explore and express the topic. You must make sufficient preliminary preparations before shooting and interviewing, so that the quality of the interview can be improved and not talk about something without nutritional value!
Zhang Chu looked at the eight people in front of him, smiled and said hello: "Welcome to Yanjing. What do you think of this city?"
The team looks quite small, with only seven people in charge of shooting, and one of them is a full-time translator.
Of course, there is no need for translation when talking to Zhang Chu, but it is absolutely impossible to live here and work for a month or two without a translation.
Harold is the head of the team and the director. He wears a baseball cap to cover up the Mediterranean hairstyle. At this moment, he said in an extremely exaggerated tone: "There are too many people, and I have never seen so many people!"
Yanjing was originally a large city with a large population. In addition, the winter vacation is approaching, even if the Spring Festival travel rush is still a few days before the beginning, the airports, roads and subways are crowded.
"Relax, it will be very deserted here when the Spring Festival is over." Zhang Chu said jokingly. He really wants to celebrate the New Year in Yanjing this year and feel the atmosphere of the Spring Festival in Sijiu City.
But before I could tell my family, especially his grandmother, she had to persuade Mrs. Lin.
If the Lady Buddha refused to come to Yanjing, nothing would be possible!
Zhou Kang had been studying English for a long time and was even looking for a special teacher. But now he was still confused when listening to their conversations, and he could only understand a few words.
"Why don't we sit down and talk about your new book by Zhang Chu? I have learned some relevant content about your work through email. Can you talk to us in detail?"
The focus of the documentary is "Butterfly Effect", not Zhang Chu himself.
Therefore, the production team must understand thoroughly before they can arrange the subsequent things. These are topics that are difficult to talk about online and must be face-to-face.
The most authoritative interpretation of books is definitely the author himself!
Zhang Chu poured each of them a cup of tea, and handed over the prepared English outline and concept diagram, briefly introduced: "You should have all heard of the term butterfly effect, right? What I want to do is combine the butterfly effect with the shuttle of time. Now, under the influence of many film and television works and book works, readers almost all believe that as long as they go back to the past, they will definitely make up for their regrets. So is that true?"
"In addition, unlike other works, the protagonist of this story, Evan, is not for himself, but for changing the fate of others, and so on, such as Kelly, Mother or Lanny. Time travel has occurred in it, and history has been constantly rewritten. At the same time, I am also making some restrictions on Evan's ability, otherwise changing time means changing the entire world. If he returns to the past and influences a certain historical figure, then the entire country and the world will change."
Therefore, Zhang Chu controlled the point of the protagonist Evan's shuttle time to the parts of memory missing, and the time of traveling is also very limited. In this way, if history is changed, it will only change the life around Evan.
While listening to Zhang Chu's explanation, Harold looked at the structural diagram in his hand, and then praised: "I think the most exquisite design in your story structure is the lack of memory. This perfectly provides a fit with returning to the past later, and at the same time verifies the paradox of time travel!"
"Every shuttle makes things worse and worse. I know that Evan loves Kelly and his mother, but I really can't bear to see this ending." Another staff member sighed, "The protagonist's mother may never know what happened. Maybe the reason why her three children miscarried was the same."
"From the moment, the impact and enjoyment this story brings to me comes from time travel, but too tight connections and transformations will make it difficult for readers to focus on the deeper theme you want to express. Of course, this is just an outline, and we must see what it is."
"I personally think it's too cruel to end the issue? I guess many readers can't accept this way to end their lives."
In many countries and regions, abortion is an illegal act.
Zhang Chu spread his hands and said, "Then I can design the endings of two versions and then make adjustments based on the distribution area."
Anyway, there are several different endings in the movie "Butterfly Effect", including the Great Perfect ending, the Forget-in-Law version, and the Cruel version.
In fact, he believes that the version of suicide returning to the fetal period is the most impressive and most consistent with the plot.
Readers with glass hearts should not read such suspense works, and it is impossible to satisfy every reader.
Just as they were chatting, the camera fixed on the side quietly recorded the contents. These are all useful materials, although it is very likely to be abandoned in the final film!
After almost an hour of chatting, they had a better understanding of each other's views.
Although "Butterfly Effect" filmed several sequels in its previous life, Zhang Chu had no intention of writing a sequel, and that was just a sequel.
No domestic media knows about the arrival of the BBC recording team, everything is quiet.
Zhou Kang looked at the camera over there and whispered to Zhang Chu: "Your home has installed this camera. If you don't want to be photographed, just use the towel here to block the lens. There should be no noise when it runs, and you probably have to get used to it."
"It's okay, as long as I write a book, I don't care about the rest of the things around me, and it has no effect on me."
"This Friday is the day when the Oscar nomination list is announced. After the list is announced, the final public relations must be conducted, otherwise the award will be very lingering. Emanuel said that you must show up, otherwise it will not be suitable."
Zhang Chu knew that there were two people nominated for the script award for "Young Pi". If David Margo was allowed to promote public relations alone, it would definitely not work. I guess others would think that he was a person who made up the numbers.
"Calculate the time, let's go to Hollywood, just take a vacation trip, and buy a house there, so as to save you from staying in a hotel every time you go."
