Chapter 495 Terror Attack

By the time Su Yun had finished dealing with Hong Kong affairs, the warm spring breeze had already blown across the earth. Even Hollywood, thousands of miles away, seemed to be touched by the vitality of all things and became full of energy.

It is easy for people with subordinates to be lazy, and with the development of long-distance communication technology over time, even if Su Yun is not here, the preparation work for the live-action film adaptation of "Resident Evil 1: Parasite" has been urgently rushed according to the plan left by Su Yun earlier, led by George A. Romero and supervised by Ovitz. Thanks to the fact that there is no Spring Festival holiday in the United States, she can take advantage of the time difference to spend time with her family and friends and handle work!

As for why she had handed over the directing rights to Romero but still asked Ovitz to supervise and assist, it was because although Romero was known as the "Father of Zombie Movies" and was regarded as a god-like existence in the B-level movie circle... However, before this, he had no experience in independently directing a large-scale production of this level due to the limitations of the subject matter.

At present, horror films, especially the zombie film subgenre, have never been able to enter the mainstream film culture in a large-scale production manner.

In terms of the elements that make up a movie, there is actually no difference between commercial blockbuster A-level movies and relatively low-budget B-level movies. The difference between them is mostly the difference in production funds: A-level movies are more in line with the requirements of mainstream culture in terms of production, and the narrative rhythm is simple and clear, which fully meets the standards of the commercial production assembly line and suits the tastes of the general public; while B-level movies are easier to make because of their small production, and the plots dare to dance with shackles on the boundary between being able to go up and being blocked...

It can be said that Su Yun's invitation, which stretched the front line to a very long distance, was Romero's only chance to "vindicate" the entire B-level film industry, and also a chance for zombie films, which are themselves a "minority" subtype of the "unpopular" horror film genre, to make a comeback.

If successful, it could open up a new commercial film genre, just like Shark Nuggets.

To this end, Romero has repeatedly read the large number of setting collections, story outlines, timeline summaries and other documents sent to him by Su Yun over the past few years. He also insists on buying the latest game every year and asking his assistant to play through various endings for him to watch countless times. There is no other way. He is old and has clumsy hands, and the highest-end graphics after Su Yun's technical improvement are too real, so he can only play through them online.

Su Yun was a little amused by Romero, a pioneer cloud player. However, considering that Romero was still working so hard at such an old age, she didn't say much. Instead, she recorded some videos of herself completing all routes and collections when she was free and sent them to him so that Romero, who was working in isolation, could get more inspiration.

Now, after many years, the old and the young finally had the opportunity to work together. They brought their crew and the first heroine to start filming the first live-action adaptation movie.

After the release of "Waterworld" at the end of last year, it was extremely popular but received mixed reviews. However, after the box office statistics were completed, at least it did not end up being a failure like Su Yun remembered, but instead made a small profit. Therefore, Kevin Costner, the male lead and one of the investors of the film, was extremely grateful to Su Yun. As soon as he received the notice, he immediately said that he would join the crew for filming as soon as he finished the work at hand.

In contrast, Schwarzenegger, who played the villain "Wesker" throughout the entire series, was unable to join the crew right away due to his busy work schedule. Compared to Costner's gratitude, Schwarzenegger was more concerned about the fact that Su Yun helped him soar to fame with the "Terminator" series. Therefore, after Su Yun finally took out the cooperation contract that had been signed many years ago, he agreed to join the crew without hesitation.

Although these two action superstars, one literary and one martial, were not able to arrive right away, Su Yun was not in a hurry: their roles were mostly mixed, and most of the time they were on separate lines from the heroine. She could take advantage of this gap to shoot the heroine "Jill"'s line first.

"It's your first time taking on a major role. How do you feel?" The filming hasn't officially started yet. Su Yun was talking about the play while looking at Monica with a smile.

Monica, with her neat short hair, took a deep breath and said very seriously: "I will work hard!"

She didn't know how lucky she was to have this opportunity, and if she couldn't seize it, she would feel sorry for the world's preference for her.

"That's good, relax, I'm very easy-going." Su Yun had seen Monica's training and saw that she was hard-working and serious, so she understood how much she valued this opportunity.

Compared to Monica, who was a model and therefore has a certain foundation in physical fitness and movements, Su Yun is more worried about Ayumi Hamasaki, who is only fourteen years old: although this child does not have many action scenes in the movie, she has certain requirements for literary scenes.

"I will work hard too!" Ayumi Hamasaki also didn't know how she was lucky enough to get the favor of the legendary Marie Sue with a minor role in a TV drama, but she had already developed a strong interest in acting and was completely reluctant to leave the crew.

Even though she had to leave her hometown, learn English every minute, study acting and undergo physical training for this opportunity, she felt it was totally worth it!

From a problem student and a bad girl in the eyes of others, she became a new movie star spotted by Marie Sue overnight. If she works hard, she might be able to debut like Seiko Matsuda or Akina Nakamori, relying on the good opportunities given by Marie Sue, and then grow into a new generation of national singer...

The dreams of an innocent girl are always so pure and full of longing. Su Yun was so happy to see this, but she was also often criticized by the two national singers who said that she always forgets the old ones when she finds the new ones...

So Su Yun had to add a note in her little notebook, reminding herself to visit her good sisters from the past when she has time, and maintain the sisterhood that has remained unchanged over the years.

After the leading actors joined the crew, Su Yun started preparing for the second part while filming with Romero - yes, money can make you so willful! There was no need to worry about whether the first part would fail at the box office!

This is an extremely vast world, and with Romero and her calling in their respective fields, I cannot say whether the first film can make a lot of money, but at least there is a 99% chance that it will not lose money!

However, the most successful, profitable and well-received "Resident Evil" series are the second and fourth parts; and in this world line, the most familiar memories of most Chinese teenagers and children are the second part, which was made at the right time, in the right place and with the right people.

As long as the first part is good, the second part will be able to lay out all the characters and show most of the world view, laying a solid foundation for making money and popularity for everything that comes later.

And because the second part is connected to the timeline of the first part, in Su Yun's arrangement, the second live-action movie will follow the first part, and some of the content will also appear in the easter egg trailer of the first part. If you start preparing now, the time is almost right.

The most crucial thing is that the "leek" has grown almost to maturity - according to her instructions, Leon resolutely stopped all business activities for more than a year, and then devoted himself to the "ripening" operation of growth and development. At a young age, he has built a beautiful body of muscles, and even his facial features seem to have stretched out in more than a year.

Su Yun was very satisfied with his appearance, as he had transformed from a weak and over-age child to a young and beautiful boy. He was also very satisfied with the detailed script that Su Yun handed over: finally, at the age of 18, he could realize his dream at the comic convention and snatch the role of "Ada" played by Su Yun from Tom's "Leon"!

Although Tom's family did not live up to his wish and turned into an obese old man after many years, which made him a little disappointed - but it doesn't matter, he is so old, and he is busy flying around to film movies, so he has no time to come and look for Su Yun...

Isn't this a good opportunity for newcomers to take over?

Leon was planning to take advantage of the opportunity to move up, but suddenly Su Yun pushed a tall, long-legged, and beautiful new partner to him: "This is Rachel Weisz. She will play the role of 'Claire' in the second movie. Your character and her character will have a lot of scenes together, so you two should cultivate your relationship. Soon it will be your turn to be the main characters."

What the hell?!

He had finally waited for the right time when that old man Tom and those two clingy girls Monica and Ayumi Hamasaki were too busy with work to compete with him for the opportunity to please him, but it turned out that Su Yun was another newcomer who was dug out from nowhere.

He is only 18 years old this year! This is the most tender and youthful age! Why does he seem to have become an "old man" in Su Yun's eyes? !

Unfortunately, no matter how he roared and wailed in his heart, he still had to do his job - not to mention the issue of professionalism, if Su Yun got angry, the terrible memory of her transformation from an oriental beauty to a tyrant on the set would be a common nightmare that everyone wanted to avoid...

Time flies by in Su Yun's amazing multi-line operation. When the live-action movie "Resident Evil 1: Parasite" is officially released in theaters, the fear dominated by "Looking Back Smile" in the past seems to reappear in everyone's heart...

The whole story, in general, is not a brain-burning twist, but a simple and brisk popcorn plot with two parallel lines: in a town called "Raccoon City", there have been many news reports of wild animals attacking humans in recent days, and the Barvo team that was sent out to investigate the situation has lost contact, so the special search team STARS sent out the Alpha team headed by Captain Wesker, and composed of Chris, Gil, Barry and other members to investigate.

After the Alpha team landed near the mansion, they were attacked by zombie dogs. The pilot Brad in the team was so scared that he actually ran away in the plane. The other members of the Alpha team who were left behind could only fight and escape, and then take refuge in a nearby mansion.

After being attacked by the Smiling Zombies again in the mansion, Captain Wesker disappeared, so the remaining people could only search separately in this deep and huge mansion. On the way, they met Rebecca, a survivor of the Barvo team and a new medical staff, and learned some news about the zombies.

It turns out that the news about beasts injuring people that had been circulating before were not about beasts, but "good things" caused by the zombies and zombie dogs in the mansion!

Then, the group kept meeting and separating during the search, and encountered countless zombie attacks along the way. In the end, only Chris, Jill, Rebecca and Barry were left when they arrived at the laboratory deep in the mansion. The rest of the team members all died in the mansion.

Through exploration, Chris and his team learned that the reason this mansion was built here was because the umbrella company used it as a cover to cover up the laboratory hidden deep underground.

As for this underground laboratory, it is where these zombies and mutated zombies are cultivated and sold as weapons of war...

At this time, the missing Captain Wesker finally showed up, tore off his disguise, and confessed that he was an undercover agent of the umbrella company.

Wesker led the team here this time, ostensibly to investigate the situation and search for the Barvo team, but his real purpose was to collect combat data on biological weapons.

At the same time, Uncle Barry had no choice but to stand on Wesker's side and confront Chris because the umbrella company took his family as hostage.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Uncle Barry finally chose the side of justice and turned around to injure Wesker. In order to turn the tables, the injured Wesker decisively released the big boss Tyrant in the incubator.

Moreover, Wesker, who was escaping in the chaos, also activated the self-destruct device, intending to blow up all his former teammates deep in this unknown laboratory.

At the critical moment of life and death, the sound of a helicopter suddenly rang out in the sky.

After confirming that it was Brad who had escaped before and had a change of heart, the four of them fought against the tyrant's pursuit while trying to escape to the helipad. Finally, after receiving the rocket launcher dropped by Brad from the helicopter, they finally launched a fire cleansing, burying the entire sinful mansion in the explosion.

In the flames, the few survivors also decided on a new course of action for the future - they must not let this terrible virus that turns living people into bloodthirsty zombies spread, so they will go their separate ways again and work together to expose the crimes of the umbrella company!

As the helicopter's shadow disappeared into the horizon, on the grass under the afterglow of the setting sun, some rats with eyes as red as the zombies before were running away with their burnt flesh scattered around...

Obviously, this terrible virus eventually spread from the ruins of the mansion to the nearby Raccoon City.

The scene on the screen slowly changed from black curtain and end credits to heavy rain at night.

Claire, a female college student who couldn't get through to her brother Chris on the phone, walked out of the phone booth, drove her motorcycle to Raccoon City to inquire about her brother who suddenly lost contact.

The rain was getting heavier. A car was following the motorcycle towards Raccoon City. The phone on the co-pilot's seat was playing a message from the Raccoon City Police Department, which basically told the new police officer, Liong, not to report to the Raccoon City Police Department for the time being...

In the rain that covered the sky, some figures with strange postures could be vaguely seen, moving slowly in this dark night rain.

A brand new biochemical crisis... is about to begin again.
