From Lu Kan's perspective, although the trip lasted a long time, there was actually not enough time that could be shown to the audience.
For example, the part where he and Xia discuss magic is quite important for Lu Ban to understand the Land of Silence and the Kingdom of Night, but when put in the film, the audience will only feel that it is a bit incoherent, and there are too many proper nouns, which can easily be regarded as a riddle man.
The entire process of exploring the ruins is the key point.
If this was a heist movie, Lu Ban felt that it would definitely start with a performance of exploring other ruins to get treasures, then a daily scene to portray each person's personality and living conditions, and then a villain invites the protagonist to explore a certain ruin. After the protagonist flatly refuses, the villain goes there himself or ties up the people around the protagonist and forces him to go to the ruins. Then there is another half an hour of various strange monsters and the adventures of the exploration team, and finally the protagonist enters the ruins. After a series of operations, the protagonist gets the treasure, saves his friends, and escapes.
It’s a pity that Lu Ban’s adventure didn’t have so many twists and turns. Only the ordinary and plain life was real.
He looked at the material he had received.
The materials obtained from 80% mission exploration are naturally rougher than those from perfect evaluation, but Lu Ban thinks it is enough.
At least the most thrilling parts were preserved.
He estimated that these materials could be made into a short film of about 20 minutes, starting with the moment they got the map in the wasteland and prepared to explore the ruins, and ending with only Xia and Lu Ban surviving and leaving the ruins.
When he thought of this, Lu Ban stopped looking through the materials.
He clicked on a video file.
That was the scene of him and Xia leaving.
But after the two left, the video progress bar was still halfway through.
He felt a little confused.
Dragging the progress bar, Lu Ban saw the starry sky passing by and dawn coming.
Then, the sand on the ground suddenly moved, and a black insect with a bloated belly crawled out of the sand. It dragged its heavy body towards the ruins, leaving irregular traces of movement on the silver gravel.
“…He’s still alive?”
Lu Ban was a little surprised.
He didn't know whether this was the real body of the Queen of Insects, or whether some specific individuals among the insects had escaped control and evolved into new Queen of Insects in the constant infighting.
Now that the saint's remains have disappeared, the new Queen of Insects may not be able to reach the same strength as before, but this strange vitality still makes Lu Ban feel a little horrified.
Moreover, maybe this little bug has already remembered him. Next time when he goes to the wilderness, this bug will chase Lu Ban like a shrew.
"hiss--"
Thinking of this, Lu Ban took a breath of air that had really turned very cold.
"Fortunately, I won't choose to go to the wasteland next time, so I can escape this disaster for the time being."
He decided to use this segment as the ending to leave a suspense.
The weather in Jiangcheng becomes very cold in December.
Making this short film is a piece of cake for Lu Ban. He has already independently produced theatrical films. Would he fail in the face of such a short film?
Impossible.
His cell phone vibrated and a message popped up, which was the schedule for the premiere sent by the Film Association.
"The Cry" will be released in theaters nationwide at midnight tonight, that is, at midnight on December 25th, in time for the year-end schedule. The theaters in Jiangcheng want to invite Lu Ban to attend a premiere.
Lu Ban did not refuse. After all, he still had to give face to the theaters. What's more, he was also planning to announce his new plan at the premiere to gain maximum attention.
The webpage has been completed, and information from several foreign regions has also been uploaded, just waiting to be put online.
Lu Ban replied to the message, stood up and went to the bathroom. The Lu Ban in the mirror seemed a little cold and shivering. Lu Ban washed his face with cold water to make himself feel more refreshed.
Returning to the house, he glanced at the two clouds of mist, smiled, and did not disturb their sleep.
With nothing to do, Lu Ban simply checked the bullet equipment of his [Last Words].
Due to the evolution of capabilities, the original five-round magazine can no longer keep up with the version, so Lu Ban optimized it.
The ramblings of the great being are naturally preserved.
"Good Luck Comes" must also be retained, but Lu Ban modified and upgraded it, and personally completed the recording.
The current speech bomb can make the person who is hit do a very embarrassing dance while singing "Good Luck Comes", which can be said to be a very strong control ability.
The ultrasonic waves used for reconnaissance did not move, but the infrasound waves and stun grenades had been washed away by Lu Ban.
One of the shots turned into the movement of a high-speed car, allowing Lu Ban himself or the person who was hit to move quickly in a certain direction a distance of more than ten meters.
He originally wanted to try rockets or missiles, or at worst a supersonic fighter jet.
But later Lu Ban discovered one thing, that is, although [Last Words] can copy the state of motion, it cannot copy the structural strength.
In other words, although he can record the cruising speed of a supersonic fighter and fly at that speed himself, his body cannot bear it and will collapse directly.
The reason he came to this conclusion, of course, is because he tried it.
By the way, Lu Ban stayed in bed for three days afterwards and even cancelled Qin Tiantian’s invitation to have hotpot.
Therefore, Lu Ban is currently unable to rely on this ability to turn into light.
He tested the maximum speed that an average person could withstand, and recorded it as a bullet in case of emergency.
After all, verbal bullets sometimes have to be used to save teammates, and people's physical conditions cannot be generalized.
Lu Ban was left empty-handed after the fifth speech, because he believed that his current abilities had undergone a qualitative change and he would need to be able to adapt to many situations, so having two mobile positions was very necessary.
After putting away the [Last Words], Lu Ban confirmed the launch schedule of the website and the upload schedule of Weibo and other accounts. In the evening, Lu Ban went to the back street of Jiangcheng University to have a meal, and then went to the Jiangcheng Plaza Giant Screen Cinema on the old street in the city center.
Jiangcheng Plaza is a commercial plaza developed by Jiangcheng Industry. Just like those regular commercial areas, it has all kinds of consumer goods such as food, clothing, cosmetics, etc. The Jiangcheng Plaza giant screen cinema is located on the sixth floor of the mall and is one of the most visited cinemas in Jiangcheng.
It was already ten o'clock and ordinary shopping malls were preparing to close one after another, but the restaurants on the fifth floor and the cinemas on the sixth floor were still crowded.
Many people choose to come here around eight or nine o'clock, so they don't have to wait in line for dinner, and they can go upstairs to watch a movie directly after eating.
Lu Ban noticed that most of the people who came to see the movie were young people, and there were also quite a few couples. It seemed that "The Wailing" had a better reputation among young people.
Because he was wearing a mask, many people could not recognize Lu Ban, so he was able to enter the cinema smoothly and come to the giant screen hall.
The premiere will begin at 11:30. Lucky audiences will be able to enter early and interact with Lu Ban, and the movie will officially start at 12 o'clock.
As he walked into the screening room, Lu Ban saw a familiar figure.
"Ah, it's finally here."
Feng Yu stood with the staff and smiled at Lu Ban.
