The entertainment industry shouldn't be like this

Chapter 265 The Dinosaur Must Be Handsome

Some people don't understand, but some people are already eager to see Wang Wei's new film.

For example, Wei Jishun.

He is an old professor of paleontology and evolution in Huaguo, and also serves as the paleontology consultant of "Jurassic Park". In other words, every dinosaur that appears in the movie must be approved by him.

——Originally, the crew only planned to invite his students, um, a young paleontologist who had already graduated from the school as a consultant. Unexpectedly, after reading the script, the old professor recommended himself to join.

With his qualifications, he became the main consultant of the professional team without any suspense.

Wang Wei went to look for him immediately after joining the group.

Because although it is a live-action movie, the biggest protagonist of "Jurassic Park" will only be dinosaurs!

Such huge creatures have dominated the wild world for a long time. Humans can only speculate on their extraordinary stature from fossils and other historical traces, endowing them with romantic fantasies;
They are, at least in part, more fascinating than any dragon, unicorn, elf, or other creature of myth and legend.

After all, this creature was real and once lived on the planet we now live on.

Of course, the most important thing is that they are all extinct!
It's important that people don't have to be afraid of them, and they don't have to worry about being attacked by them on the way to school or on the way to work, to thoroughly enjoy them.

There is no way, human beings are such "Ye Gong loves dragons" creatures.

Professor Wei Jishun didn't know Wang Wei's inner slander, he only saw Wang Wei's "passion" for dinosaurs, so he acted more enthusiastically.

"I like your script, although there are many flaws in science; I also like the discussion of human beings' unrestrained use of technology, which makes it more than just an entertainment film... If it is not old, I am quite Wanted to play the biology professor in the film."

The eager expression on Professor Wei Jishun's face showed that he was not joking.

——The biology professor in the film is the expert who strongly opposes cloning dinosaurs and believes in chaos theory.

Chaos theory, simply put, is that in a complex environment, the evolution and development of a dynamic system is almost impossible to be manipulated by humans; put it in a movie, it means that the resurrection of an extinct animal will bring huge uncertainty to the ecology, and even disaster.

This leads to the theme of this movie - no matter how many restrictions and obstacles are placed on nature, life will always find a way!

"If it weren't for this theme, this would be just a movie with dinosaurs as a gimmick. If I were to be a consultant, I wouldn't come."

The old professor also took advantage of the opportunity to complain.

Wang Wei coughed lightly, and had to explain, "Professor Wei, this is actually an entertainment blockbuster after all, not a documentary about dinosaurs, which is different from the documentaries you saw in college;"

"Of course, entertainment is not equal to making up, so I need you to provide enough scientific knowledge about dinosaurs, such as how big they were, what they looked like, how they moved, what kind of environment they lived in, etc. , and then use it as a basis to create artistically..."

"I see!"

Wei Jishun didn't take it as an expression of understanding for disobeying the land.

Of course he knows that this is not academic.

In fact, Wang Weineng has invited professionals to serve as consultants, which has already greatly appreciated him.

As for artistic processing, frankly speaking, is there no element of artistic processing in the academic research on dinosaurs?Who dares to say that the real dinosaurs are what they describe?
"The key is that the dinosaur image you showed in the film may become an industry standard. This will also be the most important thing in the paleontology world in the next ten years!" Wei Jishun said with a smile.

Ah, this... Wang Wei didn't even know that the old professor had such confidence in him, so he didn't know what gesture to use to express his self-effacing for a while.

However, the old professor's confidence in him was stronger than expected——

"This film will awaken the public's interest in dinosaurs and lead more young people into the field of paleontology; it will also allow more funds to flow into this field, allowing more universities to offer dinosaur courses, and allowing people from all walks of life to learn about dinosaurs. This kind of museum has a dinosaur exhibition..."

To put it bluntly, before this, no matter how well the entire paleontology community did, how many publicity resources could it get?

In the opinion of the old professor, ten thousand times of science popularization activities are not as useful as one popular science popularization of a popular movie.

And when dinosaurs returned to the vision of the new generation, the entire paleontological community can experience the benefits brought by Wang Wei.

So he also came to provide a little help.

just—

Leading young people into the world of paleontology?Is this a bit sinful?

Also, he thinks so beautifully, if I can't do it, will he feed me to the dinosaur? —if he clones dinosaurs.

Some incoherent thoughts were rolling in Wang Wei's mind.

Well, for whatever purpose, everyone agrees.

Wang Wei also got to the point, "Professor, do the types of dinosaurs given in the script cover all the types found in China?"

When he watched the Jurassic series of movies in his previous life, he was dazzled by all kinds of dinosaurs. After checking the information, he found that there were basically no domestic dinosaurs in it.

Now, the Jurassic series has been replaced with domestic blood, and of course the dinosaurs in it should be replaced with domestic blood dinosaurs as much as possible.

Of course, this is not to say that this series of dinosaurs can only appear in China. Wang Wei even has an idea—that he can "resurrect" dinosaurs from more countries in the future, fight each other, and "use dragons to make dragons". I believe it will be A nice selling point.

Well, in the first part, let's let the Huaguo dinosaurs become famous first.

The old professor gave an affirmative answer, and said domineeringly: "Hua is the country where the most types of dinosaurs are found. You can find representatives of the types in your script, even the most well-known Tyrannosaurus rex!"

Tyrannosaurus rex is naturally indispensable in the Jurassic series. In fact, even without this series, Tyrannosaurus rex is well-known in the world and has been famous for a long time;

Its huge head and body, strong hind limbs and degenerated forelimbs are easy to distinguish; as a representative of brutal and overbearing carnivorous dinosaurs, it also has countless fans.

As for Brachiosaurus, which has a gentle temperament and an extremely friendly image, and opened a shocking chapter for the film, there are representatives in China that cannot be counted on one hand.

Professor Wei Jishun gave an example casually: "There are Emeisaurus and Mamenxisaurus in China..."

"Professor, let me add something—" Wang Wei coughed lightly again, interrupting the old professor's science introduction, "You can call the dinosaur anything, but there is only one thing, and it must be handsome!"

"handsome!??"

The old professor was suddenly confused.

It's not about the habits, or even about the combat power, but only about... appearance?

The old professor with a wrinkled face and a Mediterranean head is not in a very beautiful mood anymore.

"Is the appearance of animals so important?"

"Very important!"

Wang Wei nodded his head and gave an example by the way,

"For example, the giant panda is a national protected animal."

"And so is the alligator."
