The moment Richard's thoughts drifted away, [Master Luther] had already entered the passage.
The moment they entered, the audience was instantly pulled out of the perspective. They could no longer stand among the crowd as before, but it was as if they had returned to an old era before the mental connector appeared, watching everything happen as a bystander.
They saw that the moment the young man stepped into the passage, his body paused, his gaze stopped at a certain place, and his face seemed to freeze for a moment, but the subtle change in expression only appeared for a moment, as if it was an illusion caused by his stumbling.
But the next moment, he raised his hand to hold the wall.
The Noravishi stone that had been tightly held in the palm of his hand touched a certain interface on the channel in the opposite direction. Under the impact of repulsive energy, sparks flashed and the energy supply path was cut off.
Almost in an instant, the aisle where he was and the cabin behind him fell into darkness.
Far away, there seemed to be a desperate cry coming from behind.
After a brief period of darkness, the viewers' vision seemed to drift. The image left the narrow aisle, and the rotating starry sky appeared before their eyes. They also saw the huge square object attached to the outer wall of the cabin.
After the energy was cut off, the countdown-like flickering continued for a few seconds before finally going out completely.
——Obviously, this is a time bomb.
How much energy is needed to blow up a cabin with protection capabilities comparable to those of a military battleship? And are the pirates really willing to use the energy for this?
The existence of star pirates becomes a hidden danger to the alliance because of their fast speed and difficulty in tracking. This kind of highly mobile group whose most fundamental pursuit is profit will definitely not add so much burden to themselves. The best way is of course to intervene in the energy supply system of the starship itself.
From the perspective of the audience, everything seems so natural and logical.
——Realize what is wrong, take action, and solve the problem.
It sounds like just a few steps.
But Richard, who had worked in interstellar rescue for a while, knew how difficult it was.
Are there a few seconds between noticing something is wrong and making a judgment?
Not to mention the difficulty of judgment and reaction speed, just the fact that the lives of more than a hundred people are on your shoulders is enough to crush all rationality.
But the boy was calm and rational...
In a performance full of fear and confusion, the decision was made in an almost "cold" manner.
He is even better than his brother.
Richard was sure that even Tate could not bear such weight at his age.
The "genius" of Adrian's family.
He lives up to his reputation.
…
Richard exhaled and couldn't help but turn his head to look at the child next to him.
The boy was silent as usual, but after speaking for such a long time just now, Richard was a little uncomfortable with his sudden silence as usual.
He even worried that the emotions he inadvertently revealed might have put some pressure on the child, and he couldn't help wanting to say something to relax him.
So, he patted the boy's shoulder, raised the corner of his lips, and said in a half-joking tone: "How is it? Did you act like it?"
Wei Ji's eyes flickered, but he didn't answer.
At this moment, their vision has switched to the chaos in the darkness of the cabin, and they have re-entered the immersive perspective of the mental connection.
But the boy's eyes were fixed on a certain direction, and there was obvious confusion in his eyes, as if he had encountered some huge problem.
Richard was amazed at the boy's sensitivity.
Just now, from the moment the blond boy entered the aisle to the moment he saw the time bomb fixed on the outside of the starship, this long sequence of shots did not allow the audience to immerse themselves in a perspective. They could only be confined to the outside of the image and watch from afar, just like hundreds of years ago when the docking technology was not yet mature.
For viewers who have long been accustomed to mental connection and 360-degree immersive experience, this feeling of being restricted is extremely uncomfortable.
...Just like the passengers who were left behind in the cabin.
Richard had read the reviews of this segment on Star Online, which described it as a master-level shot and the most stunning performance.
Many professionals have also suggested that "in special scenes, limiting the perspective can allow the audience to immerse themselves more deeply in the atmosphere than allowing them to move freely." This has even set off a retro trend in the film industry, and even people like Richard who don't care about these things have heard of it.
Richard was a complete layman when it came to movies, with little appreciation for them, and he had no way of evaluating the pros and cons of filming methods.
But Richard knew that everything they said was only part of the reason, and there was a deeper reason behind it.
To be honest, Richard had to admire Pilger's courage.
To some extent, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is "crazy".
The close-up of Master Luther's expression in the aisle is not a performance by the young actor named "Lloyd" at all, but a "technical reproduction".
——Fill in the image quality from the blurred surveillance and then reproduce the image.
He captured the scene captured by surveillance cameras at the time of the incident, and after some blurring or filling in, he interspersed it with the actors' performances.
If Richard didn't have some special talent in recognizing people's facial features, this would have fooled even him, who had seen both surveillance and movies.
Richard didn't know where Pilger got the surveillance footage.
But there is no doubt that once this is exposed, the reputation of this great director will probably be ruined, and he may be entangled in lawsuits for the rest of his life, or even go to jail.
Richard didn't know whether the young actor had noticed this, but he thought the big director would not let many people know about such a dangerous thing, and he was afraid that the young actor was also kept in the dark.
…
…………
However, Richard's guess was not entirely correct.
If Richard had been free enough to watch the live broadcast of the Sustain dinner a year ago, he might have been able to get a glimpse of the accident that happened there.
- How Lloyd Osment, the youngest winner of the Sustain Best Actor Award in nearly a hundred years, accidentally broke his crystal gold trophy at the dinner party.
…
But the affairs of the Shadow Realm were too far away from Richard. At that time, he didn't even know about being stationed in that fringe galaxy and eating sand, so of course he had no way of knowing.
The reason why Richard remained silent was simple.
Once this matter is exposed, the daring director will not have a good end, but this movie will definitely be shelved due to various considerations.
Richard didn't want this...
There are so many things that time can waste.
In just three short years, almost no one mentioned the "genius" of the Adrian family.
His brilliant time was too short, just like a Juliet rose that died unexpectedly before it could bloom. Although people sighed with regret, they only lamented the flower's early death and had no idea how beautiful it was when it was in full bloom.
He could have avoided all this.
He had a chance to survive.
I thought of the light computer screen that flashed with a countdown warning, but was eventually turned off by the owner; I also thought of myself rushing to receive the mission, the initial surprise and relief, and the helplessness and confusion after understanding everything that happened...
Richard dropped his eyes.
This is too sad for that child.
So…try another approach.
He should be remembered.
Kind, brave, wise, fearless...
Since the title of "genius" cannot be retained for a short time, let him be engraved in people's hearts as a "hero".
It's undeniable.
There's no better way to do it than through movies.
