Qiao Xiu looked at the rearview mirror outside the window of the magic car, and the towering sage's tower gradually moved away from Qiao Xiu.
"I don't understand what you're talking about at all."
Ciri was dozing off in the passenger seat. She ran back and forth with Qiao Xiu for two days in a row, and she was starting to feel sleepy.
The physique of humans is far less excellent than that of Chaos Demons, especially in terms of resistance to fatigue.
"Ciri, if you're sleepy, you can sleep first."
Joshua glanced at Ciri, who was sitting beside him. Nolan's season was gradually entering the hot summer season, and Ciri did not enter the state of quilting when he was sleepy.
"Wait... going there?"
Ciri rubbed her eyes and looked out the window, Joshua didn't look like he was going back to the Hearthstone Tavern.
"Bauhinia Theater, I'm going to talk to Sir Bauhinia about the shooting of a new movie."
"Is the script ready?"
Ciri heard the word "new movie" and her drowsiness was instantly swept away, as if she had heard a spell that could refresh one's mind.
"Just figured out what themes are."
Qiao Xiu held the steering wheel in one hand and took out a drawing left by the man in black with the other hand. an experiment.
"Is this the intruder you met in the consciousness space?"
Ciri took the blueprint in Qiao Xiu's hand, and the content on it was translated into the language commonly used in the mainland by the man in black.
"People in the past used it to control their emotions, I think it should be to ease the fear caused by things outside the world."
Qiao Xiu had already read the contents of this drawing once, and further affirmed that his plan was feasible.
"Why do I see so many words 'runaway' and 'abandoned'?"
Ciri tried to read the above content, and found that although it was written in the common language of the mainland, there were a lot of complicated and uncommon words in it, and the most mentioned words were the words "failure". main.
"If this kind of magic machinery is put into place now, it will definitely not pass the review of the Nolan Magic Machinery Guild. The reliability is too poor." Ciri said.
"Because its function is to absorb human emotions, not to lock in, and its production method is also banned in Nolan now."
"The heart of making is the human soul..."
Ciri whispered the line of words left on it, and the first step of production alone gave people a creepy feeling, that is, "striping the human soul".
This kind of magic doll called "Heart Lock" requires hundreds or even thousands of soul injections to complete a core, and it may not be successful.
"Let's not talk about reviewing this design, just being seen by the Magic Machinery Association will be caught in the law enforcement team and locked up." Ciri returned the blueprint to Qiao Xiu.
"There's so much unknown about this stuff, but the reason they're 'obsolete' is because they absorb so much negativity."
While driving the Magic Car, Joshua glanced at a house in the distance, with the movie poster of The Shawshank Redemption hanging on it.
"One or two human negative emotions may not affect them, but the audience of a movie cannot be counted in single digits."
…
Sir White Thorns stood in front of a blackboard and silently lit his pipe.
There was a statistical table drawn on the blackboard, something he had learned from the Black Pigeon News Agency.
This form can help it clearly record the revenue of all the films, rather than recording it all on one sheet of paper.
Seeing those "exciting numbers" when you look up at work every day is even more motivating.
It's a pity that Sir White Thorns didn't feel excited when he looked at the statistics on the blackboard.
"The Shawshank Redemption" is a very high box office movie, and it was a bit sluggish when it was released in Nolan at the beginning, far less than "Avatar" that instantly shocked the entire Nolan.
However, the box office of this movie has gradually increased over time, and some people are willing to pay for two, three or even four tickets to come to the theater to watch this movie non-stop.
This is the charm of "The Shawshank Redemption" itself, but unfortunately he still ranks fourth at the box office.
The top three were occupied by "Avatar" as well as "This Devil Is Not Too Cold" and "Beauty and the Devil".
Avatar is a veritable box-office devouring machine, far surpassing the second-place "Beauty and the Devil" by a long distance.
But no matter how these films are compared, they have created sky-high profits for Nolan's theater industry, and Sir Whitehorn has become Nolan's most famous theater manager.
But Sir Bai Jinghua did not feel any joy, because he was still an artist in his bones, a rebellious artist.
He doesn't have much interest in money, and his only ideal is to make a good movie by himself.
Sir White Thorns attempted to do so, taking advantage of the recent hiatus to direct a film and release it in his own cinemas.
Unfortunately, the final result made him very dissatisfied. The box office of the movie itself was very sluggish, and most audiences did not buy it.
What really makes Sir Whitehorn unacceptable is that... this movie is nowhere near as good as The Shawshank Redemption.
"How can you eat bread after tasting the delicious cake..." Sir Bai Jinghua took a deep breath of tobacco and came to the desk to read the script he wrote in the past.
When Sir Bai Jinghua was young, he was proud of his talent for a period of time, but now Sir Bai Jinghua looks at these scripts, and his thoughts are full of "naive" and "meaningless" "I'm going to die if Joshua doesn't write a new script. "
It may be that the god of art heard Sir Bai Jinghua's wish. Not long after he entered a state of decadence, a servant pushed open the door of the study and hurried in front of him.
"Mr. Joshua, he's here!" The news brought by the attendant made Sir White Thorns jump straight from his position.
"Let Mr. Qiao Xiu come to see... No, I will see him in person."
Sir Bai Jinghua picked up the coat hanging on the hanger, put out the pipe in his mouth, put on his clothes and hurriedly walked out of the study.
"He's in your private screening room!"
"My screening room? What movie is playing in it?" Sir Bai Jinghua had a bad premonition.
"The "Tragic Notes" just released a few days ago."
When Sir White Thorns heard the news, his whole body tensed up. This feeling was no less than when he was studying at the Farosi School of Art when his tutor carefully read the new script he wrote in front of him.
