The film was shot very quickly. Excluding the time for casting and forming a team, it took only more than two months to complete.
Of course, there were difficulties, but thanks to the AR glasses, Si Qi only needed to turn on the equipment placed at the school, and he could "attend classes" anytime and anywhere, and consult professional teachers about problems. To some extent, it was no different from teleportation.
Chu Feng certainly played a big role in this, such as the customization of related props, such as asking professional international directors to guide Si Qi, and using his own connections to get any venue Si Qi wanted for filming.
For some reason, Si Qi required the producers to make sure that the size and proportion of those props must be exactly the same as the data he provided, and they must even be detachable and the internal structure can be clearly seen. There are only a few people in the world who can do this, and the work cycle of such people is usually based on appointments. There are so many models of all sizes in a movie, and it is simply a dream to get them as soon as possible without making advance reservations.
However, money talks, and Si Qi made a request, so Chu Feng helped him do it. As a result, hundreds of models that Si Qi needed were delivered to Si Qi after more than a dozen professional craftsmen from all over the world worked overtime. Moreover, each of them signed a confidentiality agreement, which prohibited filming the production process and leaving model data. The conditions were extremely strict, but no one refused this extremely well-paid job.
The same is true for inviting a famous director who has won many international awards to come and teach Si Qi how to shoot. Chu Feng did not want Si Qi to feel burdened by this matter, so he did not show up too much. He just told the famous director that the future rich man who developed AR glasses and was very interested in making movies had encountered a problem. He believed that anyone who was smart and knew how to seize opportunities to expand their network would not miss this opportunity.
The other party was willing to come and teach Si Qi how to shoot a movie, more out of Si Qi's own face.
And it was said to be teaching, but in fact it was just to help answer questions when Si Qi didn't know what to do because of his lack of experience. And once this question is answered, Si Qi will never have similar doubts in the future. Even the great director said, "You are the most gifted guy I have ever seen." Chu Feng always feels good when he hears these words.
In this way, with the blessing of many conditions, a big-budget science fiction movie that should have taken several years to slowly run in was completed in just over two months.
After the news spread, some senior moviegoers who didn't care about other things and only paid attention to the film and television industry were a little disappointed - they originally thought that with Si Qi's ability to make AR glasses casually, making a science fiction movie should be able to make a good name.
There are so many science fiction movies on the market, but if you really want to say that science fiction movies are well made, basically all of them are foreign films. China has not produced any outstanding works in this area, and the world has not seen the country's strength in this area. This is definitely a regret in the hearts of every Chinese science fiction movie lover.
Think about it, Si Qi took a month to shoot that campus short film, and now it only took more than two months to shoot a science fiction movie... It seems that it is impossible to see any big scenes in the movie, and the kind of hard science fiction worth pondering is probably impossible. It is most likely just an ordinary story unfolding against the backdrop of the stars.
Thinking of this, the experienced moviegoers shook their heads secretly when they saw the fans online cheering and saying they would definitely go to the cinema to support them. They thought that this was indeed an era where traffic was king. No one was interested in high-quality niche movies, while videos shot by guys with a little fame could become popular all of a sudden...
Si Qi had no idea what these people were thinking. Because of their fast action and high popularity, they were inexplicably forcibly labeled as "not worth looking forward to". They buried their heads in the editing room with a large number of videos they had shot, working even harder day and night than when they were editing the campus short film before. Si Lin felt so distressed when he saw this, but he wanted to stop them but couldn't bear to.
Who made his brother's eyes so bright when he was sitting in front of the computer and looking at those pictures, as if he had received the most perfect gift in the world, and he was extremely happy...
Si Lin rubbed his eyebrows and could only think of ways to send delicious food and drinks to his brother, and pamper him like a child.
Because of this, Si Lin almost forgot that his uncle and aunt were sent to prison at this time a year ago because he was obsessed with taking care of Si Qi.
When he remembered, he was about to do something to "welcome" his uncle and aunt from prison, but he keenly noticed that there was another force beside these two people.
This force was stronger and more unfathomable than his movements. It wrapped around the two people from all sides, just like two birds in a cage. No matter how hard they tried, they could not escape the control of the cage.
Si Lin thought for a moment and turned his eyes to Chu Feng.
He snorted in his heart, but he did not refuse Chu Feng's help. Alas
Compared to how to deal with people, a hundred of him combined are not as skilled as the Shifeng Group.
In fact, his uncle and aunt did not have a good life in prison. Losing freedom, entertainment, food, clothing, housing and transportation is controlled everywhere, but the most torturous thing is that they can't sleep at night because of hatred and worry.
The evidence of their child abuse is solid. No matter how much they resist, they still have to sign the property transfer certificate. After signing, not only will they lose their house and so much property, but if Si Qi and Si Lin want to sue them in the future, they might be sent to jail again. Just thinking about it makes them grit their teeth in hatred, and they want to strangle those two little beasts to death.
Auntie's life is more difficult than uncle's. She will call her daughter whenever she has the chance. However, this call was originally made for peace of mind. Every time she called, she felt more tormented. She could clearly feel the changes in her daughter. From the beginning of arrogance to crying and begging, and then to the end of despair and hatred for her parents, it only took a few months.
The little girl was young and could not convey the accurate situation and explain how she was doing outside. At first, because she hated her aunt, she said whatever she could to make the adults around her say the worst. Later, under the cruel reality, she gradually became sensible and gradually realized that the world did not revolve around her alone. She began to learn her lesson and began to know how to read people's faces and do things. She buried her hatred in her heart and deliberately flattered her aunt on the phone in front of them, saying only good things about them and beating around the bush to say how peaceful her life was here. The aunt, who was used to her daughter's willful behavior, was heartbroken. She knew better than anyone that her daughter must have encountered something there. She wanted to be angry but didn't dare to be angry at her sister at this time. Instead, she said a lot of nice things, asking the guy, whom she hated at that moment, to take good care of her daughter and not to let her daughter go hungry. She would definitely compensate her sister in the future.
However, the person in front of her was also an adult, so how could he not know what the aunt was thinking. Doing good things but still being hated, no one can stand this kind of nagging, she just said a few lukewarm "hmm"s and hung up the phone, this reaction undoubtedly made the aunt who was trapped in the cage and unable to move even more tortured, living in pain almost every day, and couldn't help but think over and over again about the torture the brothers suffered at her hands, the more she thought about it, the more regretful she felt, and the heartache seemed to be torn apart.
Therefore, when the couple met again outside the prison, the uncle looked at his wife who seemed to have aged at least ten years overnight, and he didn't even dare to recognize her.
It would have been fine if she didn't care. Once she did, the auntie came up and beat him with a hammer, crying and wailing, saying that he was living such a good life in prison and didn't worry about his daughter at all. She said that if he hadn't had the evil intention of adding poppy to the food, how could she and her daughter suffer such a punishment
. The uncle, who had never had a good life in prison, was furious when he heard this. The reunion after several months, which should have been warm and touching, instantly turned into a quarrel and anger between the couple. The two people, who were already full of anger, vented all their anger on each other and on the people around them.
- No one came to pick them up from prison.
The uncle had no other relatives. His only brother died more than ten years ago, leaving two orphans.
Auntie didn't have many relatives in the city, and my sister and I had a lot of resentment in our hearts, so we didn't want to see her at all.
The two of them were swearing and grumbling, and they didn't show any joy of regaining freedom after being released from prison. They complained about everything, and the aura of "these two are just crazy people, explosive barrels, don't mess with them" lingered all over their bodies.
Taxis passing by the prison also know people. When they see these guys walking near the prison, without AR glasses on their noses, and constantly cursing, they know at a glance that they are definitely prisoners who have just been released from prison. With their emotions out of control, the drivers dared not answer the call. They ignored the couple's angry shouts and drove past them.
After a long time, a taxi stopped beside them and said with a smile: "Want a taxi?"
The couple was tired from walking for a long time, so they got in the car without saying a word.
After getting in the car, they found that the interior of the car was well decorated. The car was almost brand new. There were even two tablets that should have been discarded long ago placed in the back seat of the car - they were new and you could tell at a glance that they had not been used much. There were not even a few fingerprints on the screen.
- Is this actually a taxi? Maybe some rich second-generation had too much money and nothing to do, so he got a car like this to chat with people to kill time.
The driver was indeed quite talkative.
As soon as I got on the bus, I saw the two of them and asked them without fear of death: "Do you know AR glasses?"
"...I know." The uncle answered gloomily.
Even if you are in prison, there are things you should know.
One day a few months ago, the prison guards and the aunts who served food in the cafeteria were all talking about glasses like crazy. Not long after, they all wore glasses on their noses and walked on the road like crazy. Suddenly, they drew in the air with their hands. Seeing this, many prisoners who were cut off from information were frightened and thought that this prison was occupied by ghosts and these prison guards were possessed by evil spirits.
Later, someone noticed that people who did this suddenly wore glasses and asked the prison guards carefully. The prison guards were not interested in talking to them and simply said "Read more news" and left.
Then, all the prisoners in the prison learned from the nightly news broadcast that during the time they were locked up, a kid named Si Qi did something extraordinary. The AR glasses he developed caused a buying boom around the world, and the chain effect involved all walks of life and changed many of people's current living habits.
Even if these prisoners don't know how big a sensation the AR glasses have caused in the outside world, if they recall the crazy pursuit of the prison guards, and recall that everyone had a mobile phone before going to prison, and then consider whether these glasses, which are said to completely replace mobile phones and are more useful than mobile phones, will also be used by everyone like mobile phones...
then it is easy to understand how popular this pair of glasses is and how terrifyingly huge the interests behind it are.
If all mobile phones in the world are manufactured by the same company, and any function included in this mobile phone can get more subsequent profits from related companies, then how much money can this company make?
In today's information society, it is not uncommon for some geniuses to suddenly appear in the world and grab everyone's attention.
Even if you work hard for several lifetimes and can't earn a fraction of what others earn, the distance between the two sides is too far, and no one will really feel unbalanced. At most, they will grumble a few words, and nothing more.
But what if this person, who was living by your side not long ago, was despised and bullied by you, and was obviously your closest relative, turned against you because of "a few hundred thousand"?
When Si Qi's familiar smile appeared on the screen, the couple's eyes went black, and the other cursed directly, and their mood was extremely bad.
As for the idea of taking advantage of Si Qi's help after being released from prison, or even swindling Si Qi so that he must give them money...
Of course, they have thought about this idea.
But they knew better than anyone what they had done to Si Qi and his brother. Not to mention seeking leverage from Si Qi, they were lucky that Si Qi wasn't the first to kill them.
Not to mention the fraud, why were they imprisoned, there was so much evidence of their child abuse, the situation was so bad, anyone with a bit of brains would not be fooled by them, and join them in attacking Si Qi and saying that Si Qi had no conscience.
Moreover, they were not Si Qi's parents, but only uncles and aunts. What obligation did Si Qi and his brother have to support these two relatives?
Having lost so much money overnight, and becoming enemies with their nephew who suddenly became a global celebrity and a future rich man, the word "bitter" is not enough to describe their feelings at the time. It was really more bitter than eating coptis.
If they had treated the two brothers a little better at the beginning, and not insulted and beat them at every turn... things would not have turned out like this, and they would not have been sent to prison.
So, at this moment, hearing the question from the driver in the front row, the two of them looked gloomy and said nothing.
The driver smiled, as if he didn't notice their unhappiness at all. He controlled the AR system remotely, turned on the tablet in the back seat, and played the video clip - he was still very considerate, knowing that the two people didn't have AR glasses and couldn't connect to the program in the taxi, so he put two tablets here for them to watch.
The scene of the short film was a school that the couple didn't know at all. Because the quality of the video was so good, even though the couple was in a bad mood, they were still deeply attracted by the music that suddenly sounded and saw one or two pictures, and watched the end unconsciously.
People are actually very easy to please. No matter how depressed they are, they will laugh out loud in an instant when they are suddenly touched by something funny.
The same is true for reminiscing about youth, getting excited, and regaining hope.
After watching it, the couple was about to sigh, "This video is really well shot." The next second, the driver said, "You don't know yet? This video was shot by Si Qi last fall."
The smile that was about to appear froze on his face in an instant. The fighting spirit that had been ignited with great difficulty was instantly splashed on his head like a basin of cold water, and an indescribable chill emerged in his heart.
"It is said that Si Qi didn't have the money to buy filming equipment before, so no matter how much he loved making movies, he couldn't realize it. Later, he suddenly had some money, so he bought a camera and spent a month shooting a short film. This short film directly won an international award and became a hit in China..."
Seeing the two people's faces getting uglier and uglier in the rearview mirror, the driver smiled brightly and said with emotion: "Everyone says that Si Qi is naturally gifted. He was previously buried. No, they said he would definitely become a great director who would bring glory to the country in the future. Who knew that later on, Si Qi got the provincial top score in the college entrance examination, and everyone realized that Si Qi’s academic performance was so impressive...”
The couple who had always known that the elder brother Si Qi had the best academic performance among the two brothers: “…………”
At this time, they really didn’t want to hear any good words about Si Qi, especially the good words that they didn’t know about, which were equally shocking except for the glasses.
This would only make them look petty, short-sighted, mean and shameful.
The driver talked incessantly, as if he were a fanatical fan of Si Qi, and said with pride: "When everyone saw how talented Si Qi was, they all advised Si Qi not to apply to the Film and Television Academy, saying that doing so would delay talent and would be a loss to our country! Everyone was worried that he would 'go astray' and waste his talent - after all, he had been buried for so many years before he suddenly revealed his brilliance in his senior year of high school. No one dared to delay Si Qi, that would be against the people of the whole country!" The
couple who had delayed Si Qi for more than ten years: "..."
They curled up unconsciously and lowered their heads, completely unaware that the driver opposite them was brainwashing them with rhetoric, and were forced to listen to the driver's story: "You know the result What happened? Si Qi didn't notice everyone's emotions at all, he was busy coaxing his younger brother at that time! Hey, I've never seen anyone who loves his younger brother so much! Because his younger brother said he wanted to play with AR glasses, Si Qi invented this thing while studying! Tell me, how powerful is Si Qi's smart brain? ! It's a pity that the two brothers were not born in my family, otherwise I would definitely cultivate these two children well and discover their abilities in advance. How could I wait until the younger brother asked for something and then let the older brother invent it? There must be a lot of all kinds of powerful things in the house! I can also get a little bit of light because of him and be proud of my whole life! "
The more the couple listened, the more regretful they were. They buried their heads in their knees, holding their heads with their hands, and they were in great pain.
The driver in the front seat didn't stop for a moment, and seemed to be able to speak a flower out of his mouth. What he said was very reasonable and completely logical. Even if you wanted to refute it, you couldn't refute it at all - who made Si Qi so powerful.
And they, the two people who raised Si Qi, treated such a national treasure as a slave, slapped him in the face when he didn't do the right thing, and never treated the brothers well for even a day since they were young.
Si Qi would be fine, he had a good temper, maybe he would let them go. But the younger brother that Si Qi cared about the most was a lonely, gloomy person who would hold a grudge. If Si Lin said "I hate these two people", what would Si Qi, who loved his younger brother, do...?
Thinking of this, the driver sent them all the way to the door of his aunt's house.
The couple knocked on the door with heavy hearts and sullen faces. They just tried to force a smile to thank their sister's family for taking care of their daughter.
But it was their daughter who opened the door.
In the past, it was always Si Qi who ran over to open the door to welcome guests. Their daughter would sit still in the living room like a little princess. How could she be like this now?
Just when they felt that their daughter opening the door was something they were not used to, the next second, they noticed her rustic outfit, her rough skin that was not smooth and fair at all, and her fierce and cold eyes that seemed to be looking at an enemy. At this moment, the pain and regret accumulated by the couple on the way completely burst out, and they fell into an abyss that was bottomless. They felt dizzy and the malice of the world was rushing towards them.
Of course, they were more familiar with this look than anyone else, after all, they had seen it on Si Lin for more than ten years in the past! !
That was the look one would show when they were desperate about this world. It was gloomy, closed, and full of hatred for everything... In the past, they had only felt annoyance when they saw Si Lin's look, and sometimes even a little bit of dark pride would emerge, but now...
"Retribution!" The aunt's body swayed several times, and she fell to the ground paralyzed, tears streaming down her face: "This is all retribution, all retribution!! It's all my fault, if it wasn't for me... Oh my God!!!"
The woman's miserable cries attracted the aunt and others in the house. The aunt's parents-in-law heard the news that the couple would be released from prison today, and they were ready to go early, ready to scold the two guys with sarcasm. As a result, before they could say a word, the two people opposite started crying first, their faces turned blue with anger, and they ran out angrily, pointing at the two guys and cursing: "How can you have such a conscience to cry in my house! Did someone die in your family or what? If someone is dead, get away from me!" Both
sides The neighbor poked his head out and asked curiously, "What happened?"
The old lady rolled her eyes and said in a tone of disgust, "Isn't it because the daughter's parents who were in prison are released? Hey, they didn't say a word to us when they came, and started crying when they saw their daughter. They also talked about retribution! Are they accusing us of abusing her child? God swears! You usually see how my family treats this ancestor. It's not our turn to do anything. This ancestor can torture herself to death! Our whole family has been in so much trouble because of her!"
The old lady's fighting ability should not be underestimated. She talked so much that the aunt, who was already in great pain, felt a buzzing in her head and a dizzy vision. Finally, in a mixture of grief and anger, she suddenly stopped crying, her eyes rolled up, and she fell down and fainted!
The old lady paused and couldn't continue. She curled her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "What kind of character is this! You are trying to scam me at my door! Everyone saw it! I didn't touch this woman at all. She is useless and couldn't stand a few words!" The
uncle was furious. He put down the aunt who was crying with snot and tears in his arms, stood up and was about to hit her. Soon, the neighbors who had been watching for a long time swarmed over to stop him. The old lady screamed in panic: "Help! Murder! The guy who just got out of jail wants to beat me up!" They are the ones who are doing this! What a sin! I have worked so hard to take care of their daughter for such a long time. I have worked hard even if I have not done anything for her. These two have no conscience and treat me like this! Oh my God!!"
The old man shouted, the crowd roared, the uncle cursed, and the little girl squeezed in the middle looked at everything in front of her in a panic, with despair in her eyes becoming deeper and deeper - she already knew what kind of life those two brothers had lived in her home, and she also understood how hateful she was at that time. But when it came to her, she also hoped that she could have a brother like Si Qi to protect herself... but no, there was nothing.
She only had those two parents who even she thought were mean and hateful. Every day, she had to listen to her teachers, classmates, aunts, and neighbors talking about how great Si Qi was and how much they admired him... But just thinking about how Si Qi was insulted and bullied by her, you can imagine how the little girl felt. She lived in invisible pain every day, and her life was worse than death.
Maybe, as her mother said, all this was really retribution.
But now, it was too late to regret.
She didn't even know that she had escaped because of her young age. Her parents would be reminded repeatedly by people like the driver every day in the future, using various methods to tell them what heinous crimes they had committed. They
would find that people's topics of conversation always revolved around Si Qi, and the hot spots of society seemed to be inseparable from Si Qi.
Whenever Si Qi's products appeared in front of them, they would be stabbed in the heart by invisible needles. No matter where they go, despair will surround them, suffocate them, and make them collapse.
Whether it is work or life, they will find that they seem to be unexpectedly unlucky, no matter what they do, they will be blocked by strange forces, and their days will become more and more miserable.
In desperation, they wanted to seek help, but found that the only person who could help them was Si Qi...
So, the pain became even more intense.
The author has something to say:
