tearjerker director

Chapter 1641 Eight Minutes

During the filming of "Source Code", the special effects involved were the big explosion.

Li Yi does not plan to create a real explosion like the Explosion Maniac, but will adopt the same method as the original director, using model explosions and green screen and then synthesizing them with computers.

This technology is very mature nowadays and does not involve any technical difficulty.

As for the leasing of the train, we have already made arrangements and negotiated it.

The filming will take place on a train.

It can be said that everything is ready except for the east wind. As for the male lead, although Li Yi was adapted for the localization, the setting is still a soldier, so Lin Yunbin was finally chosen to play this role.

The other roles are all good and inexpensive acting and talented actors.

In fact, if you say that the original version of "Source Code" is low-cost, that is only compared with Hollywood's science fiction blockbusters. More than 30 million US dollars, in fact, if converted into Chinese currency, it is definitely not a small number.

But they cannot be compared in this way. First of all, in terms of cost, whether it is labor or other expenses for domestic filming, we use Chinese currency to settle the bill.

And the so-called more than 30 million US dollars not only includes the production cost, but also some other costs.

For Li Yi, he will also control the cost of "Source Code" to a certain extent this time. After all, he wants to set an example for everyone.

In fact, the localization adaptation of "Source Code" is not that complicated.

First of all, the protagonist’s occupation. In the original version, he was a soldier who died on the battlefield, but here Li Yi changed him to an armed police officer.

The changes in other aspects are not big, of course, many lines and the like also need to be changed.

As for the cities, Li Yi actually had a headache at first. After all, given the current situation in the country, you can't really just blow up a city.

Not even in the movies.

Initially, Li Yi wanted to invent a city, but he didn't expect that Zhonghai City would agree. Of course, it was probably because of Li Yi's reputation and the fact that in Li Yi's movie, it was just a train explosion, not some kind of apocalyptic disaster that destroyed the entire Zhonghai!
Soon, "Source Code" completed its preliminary preparations and officially started filming.

The first scene is the first eight minutes of the scene!

The difficulty of this scene lies in how to show the feeling of appearing in an unfamiliar environment while taking into account one's own identity at the same time.

"Every department is in its place!"

This scene was filmed inside a train carriage.

The trains used were renovated from old leased trains.

"Lights ready!"

“Photography ready!”

"."

"Source Code, first scene, first shot, first time, ACTION!"

With the sound of the board hitting the wall, "Source Code" officially started filming.

The male protagonist played by Lin Yunbin put his head against the car window and suddenly opened his eyes.

Li Yi sat behind the monitor and watched.

His eyes rolled around and he suddenly woke up.

Then look outside
"CUT!" Li Yi frowned and shouted to stop!

"Yunbin, come here and take a look!" Li Yi called Lin Yunbin over directly.

Lin Yunbin came over and watched the playback of the footage that had just been shot.

"You just woke up here and need to adapt. Although your eyes have changed, except for vigilance, you no longer have the confusion you had when you just woke up!"

“Also, the view from behind is confused but also lacks vigilance.

You have to know that you are a soldier, and you have just come down from the battlefield. The moment you wake up, you must be on high alert!" Li Yi said.

Lin Yunbin thought about it and nodded.

"I understand, one more!"

"All departments on their positions, here comes another one!"

Soon, the second shoot began.

This time, Lin Yunbin's work, from the beginning to the moment he saw the first person, made Li Yi very satisfied.

Li Yi did not shoot the film exactly according to the original version. After all, it was a localized adaptation, so the dialogues and other things also needed to be changed to a certain extent!

"GOOD! Very good! I passed this one!"

After that we shot it twice more and finally passed the first scene.

In fact, the most difficult part of "Source Code" for the actors is the first eight minutes.

Because here, he didn't know where he was, nor did he know why he was here. It could be said that he knew nothing.

This scene is a real test of the actors' acting skills.

The shooting started to go smoothly afterwards.

Li Yi has always been very fast when shooting movies, and this time is no exception. Of course, it also has a lot to do with the crew's very skilled operation. After all, they have been working together for a long time and have some tacit understanding.

After more than two months of work, "Source Code" was completed.

And the special effects have also been completed!

Li Yi started the post-production editing work as soon as possible.

"Source Code" was successfully completed!
People inside and outside the film industry are paying close attention to this movie, because it is another model film of Li Yi.

The original "Moon" was relatively reproducible, but it was still too monotonous.

However, the cyclical story of Li Yi's "Source Code" has inspired many people.

Of course, at the same time, they cannot start operating immediately. They must wait and see whether Li Yi, the initiator, can continue to succeed.

China Overseas International Film and Television City.

Source Code held its first internal screening here!

In addition to the film critics who have worked with Li Yi frequently and several large media outlets, those present also included science fiction directors, young directors, and screenwriters in the circle.

The movie opens with Lin Yunbin suddenly waking up on a train. He doesn't know where he is or why he is here.

It can be said that the first eight minutes may not reveal too many clues about the entire plot of the movie, but for the viewing experience, the first eight minutes are very critical.

Because the suspense starts from here!

While Lin Yunbin was observing the surroundings and being extremely alert, the girl opposite him suddenly said, "Thank you for your advice. Maybe I have already made a decision, but I have been hesitating! Anyway, thank you!"

But at this moment, Lin Yunbin had no idea where he was or why he was here, and he didn't even know the woman opposite him.

His face looked a little ugly.

The woman opposite saw this and asked with concern: "You don't look very well, are you okay?"

The camera also showed a man in the back seat opening a can.

There was nothing wrong with the sound, but for Lin Yunbin, who was always on guard, he immediately looked over with caution.

"Li Zheng?" The girl opposite saw that Lin Yunbin was acting weird and couldn't help but call out his name.

At this time, someone passed by and spilled some coffee on his shoes.

"Li Zheng? Are you okay?"

This part also surprised many people at the scene, and they naturally wondered what was going on.

"You're right. If you don't make a decision, you will suffer the consequences. He keeps calling me. He calls me even more now than before we broke up. It's really ironic!" said the woman.

But Lin Yunbin didn't listen to what she was saying at all. He didn't care at all. He looked around. At this moment, he still didn't understand why he was here.

At this time, there is a ticket inspector checking the tickets.

But Lin Yunbin was completely unaware that he had a ticket on him at this moment. It was the girl opposite him who pointed to his chest pocket and took out a ticket.

"Are you okay? Why do you seem a little absent-minded this morning?"

But he still didn't listen to what she said, but looked at the ticket.

At this time, another passenger suddenly asked: "It's ten minutes late, can we catch up?"

"Feel sorry."

Seeing that Lin Yunbin had been ignoring her, the woman couldn't help but wonder: "Did I do something?"

Lin Yunbin finally came back to his senses. He looked at the woman and said, "Sorry, do we know each other? You look like you know me, but I really don't know you!"

"My name is Lin Yunbin, not Li Zheng. Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?" Lin Yunbin looked at her and asked.

The woman looked at his serious expression and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Li Zheng, I didn't realize you're quite humorous!"

"Li Zheng?"

Seeing that the woman didn't seem to be joking, he became more and more confused, and he was eager to find out what was going on.

He stood up and said he wanted to go to the bathroom. As he passed the train walkway, he watched the scenes happening one after another. However, the doubts in his heart did not decrease at all, but instead became even more doubtful.

At this time, the train arrived at the station.

A man behind suddenly shouted, "Hey, wait a minute!"

He thought someone was calling him, so he turned around, but the other person passed by him. It turned out that the other person was calling the person in front.

It was the person who was getting off the bus in front who pulled down his wallet, and the other party was going to return it to him.

Lin Yunbin walked out of the car and looked at this strange place with a confused look on his face.

At this time, the young man who picked up the wallet and returned it to the other person got out of the car. He quickly grabbed the other person and asked, "Where is this?"

"Didn't you listen to the radio? This is Zhonghai!"

The broadcast sounded, indicating that the train was about to start, and passengers were asked to get on board as soon as possible.

The train started moving and he returned to the train, still looking at the scene outside the window.

At this time, the woman opposite asked with a hint of joking, "Are you okay, Mr. Lin Yunbin?"

But Lin Yunbin did not react. Suddenly, the scenery outside the car window kept passing by, and sometimes reflections appeared on it.

But the speed was too fast and everything flashed by. However, Lin Yunbin discovered something horrifying.

That is the person reflected in the car window, it seems, it seems like someone else!

"Did you see it?" he asked, looking at the woman opposite him.

The woman thought Lin Yunbin was going to play a joke on her again, but she didn't know what he was asking and just shook her head.

"You really scared me, are you sure you're okay?" the woman said.

He couldn't bear it any longer. He wanted to figure out what was going on, so he stood up suddenly and went to the bathroom on the train.

Close the bathroom door.

However, the person he saw in the mirror was not himself at all!
This discovery made him completely dumbfounded. He even thought that he had a mental problem or was too tired and had hallucinations.

He took out his wallet and found his ID card inside.

The name of the person on the ID card is indeed Li Zheng, and the photo is not him at all!
When he came to the mirror again, he finally confirmed one thing.

The person in the mirror is not you!

He looked at the stranger in the mirror with a look of disbelief and surprise.

But he still couldn't believe it.

He suddenly opened the bathroom door, and just in time, the woman sitting opposite him outside, who seemed to know him, no, to know Li Zheng, was looking at him with a worried look on her face.

"Are you okay?" she asked with concern.

"I don't know what's going on!"

"Li Zheng, tell me!"

"Have you ever read novels? I mean those online novels!" he asked suddenly.

"Internet novel?"

"I have seen it. What do you mean?"

"Like soul-traveling?"

"???"

"I'm serious. I'm not Li Zheng, and I don't know you! But... I don't know what to say."

The more he explained, the more confused the other party became, but Lin Yunbin suddenly felt that his idea was too outrageous!

But the woman opposite obviously didn't believe such a ridiculous thing.

"Okay, let's get off at the next stop and pretend nothing happened, okay?"

"What should I say so that you will understand? I am not Li Zheng! I don't know you!"

"Everything will be fine! It's okay!" the woman tried to comfort him.

But at this moment, there was a sudden loud bang and the train exploded violently. The flames engulfed them and the entire train carriage, and continued to spread rapidly forward.

At this moment, another train was coming from the opposite direction and was also hit by the explosion.

The picture instantly fell into darkness.

Suddenly, in the darkness, there was a blue dot that expanded like a bubble, and some scenes appeared inside.

It turned out that these were his eyes.

Lin Yunbin suddenly opened his eyes.

But he was lying upside down!
He was alert and confused. He didn't know what was happening, nor did he know where he was.

"Captain Lin Yunbin, this is a siege!"

The voice kept repeating.

"Where am I?" he asked in confusion.

"You are inside the siege, are you okay?" the voice said.

"I feel a little dizzy. Am I locked up?" he said after feeling it.

"Now adjust your orientation!"

Very quickly he turned around.

"Can I report now?" the voice asked again.

Lin Yunbin wanted to remove the lock on himself as soon as possible, but he had no idea where to start.

"Who are you? I'm following you and talking?"

"Captain, please describe what you saw and heard just now!" the voice said again.

Lin Yunbin had an even greater headache. His face looked somewhat painful as he said, "I don't understand what you are saying at all!"

"Talk to me!" He leaned forward to find out who was talking to him, but the glaring light made it impossible for him to see anything clearly.

"There was an explosion!"

"where?"

But he started to feel dizzy again.
