In a blink of an eye, it was already February of the following year. After four months of filming, the actor filming of "Spiritual Epidemic" was officially announced to be completed.

Editing, choosing the soundtrack... It was Wei Lan's time to work alone again. She contacted Mr. Nie Chengan again for the soundtrack of this movie. With the experience of the last cooperation, Wei Lan knew that he was perfectly capable of such a grand and weird soundtrack. During the editing, she sent him the script and received an interested reply from Mr. Nie.

Of course, this time there was no need to use up favors, and Wei Lan could invite him at a normal price.

The shooting cycle of a movie is generally not long, and the longest is about 2-3 months. This shooting time is the longest of all Wei Lan's current film production cycles. The difficulty lies mainly in the fact that it is difficult for the actors to perform to the level that Wei Lan is satisfied with. She needs them to show the state of a real mental patient, and it is not easy to fool them by pretending to be crazy and stupid. It took a lot of time just to adjust the actors' emotions.

The awards season from February to April. During this time, in addition to the most popular Golden Tripod Award, there are also various other awards.

The Film Association Awards presented the Best New Actress Award of the year to Wei Sijia. Su Yining's performance in "Rural Teacher" and "The Queen" earned her the Progress Award from the Actors Association, which completely eliminated the negative impact of the Golden Raspberry Awards.

When receiving the awards, Wei Sijia and Su Yining both thanked Wei Lan in particular.

Wei Sijia: "Director Wei made me realize my own path, and I will continue to work hard on this path in the future."

Su Yining: "The person I want to thank the most is Wei Lan. If it weren't for her, I don't know if I can still act well after winning the Golden Raspberry Awards."

Even though Wei Lan's last update on Weibo was still announcing the start of filming for a new movie, many netizens came to leave messages.

'It's been half a year, when will the new movie be released, Director Wei? Knock on the bowl'

'At least update it! '

'There is no Director Wei in the world, but her legend is everywhere. '

The excitement of the melon-eating crowd did not affect Wei Lan's work progress. Her workaholic attribute was revived. During this period of time, her life was a straight line between the company and home, and she was devoted to the post-production of the movie.

Compared to Director Wei who didn't care, the actors in the movie didn't forget to promote the movie when they participated in various activities.

Of course, at this stage, no matter what the media interviewed, they didn't reveal the specific content of the movie, but only talked about some daily interesting things that happened in the crew.

Although the hunger marketing trick is not new, it is still very applicable to Wei Lan, who has always been full of mystery. In addition, this is a movie full of mysterious elements. Keeping it mysterious before the release is in line with the theme of the movie.

Half a month passed like this. On March 4th, when everyone was about to forget about this matter, Wei Lan suddenly updated a Weibo.

The trailer of "Soul Epidemic" was released without any warning to fans.

The gentle cello sound rang out from the darkness, and the piano sounded twice.

The heroine played by Chu Mo appeared in the video. She was wearing a white coat and looked like a doctor, walking in the corridor of the hospital.

The view shifted to her face. She raised her chin slightly and smiled at the camera: "After a while, you will know that all the patients here are talented."

The screen extended to Gu Yun, who was wearing a hospital gown. His face was a little haggard and his expression was stable, but when he heard this, he looked at Chu Mo with some confusion.

Chu Mo shrugged: "This hospital only accepts mental patients with research value."

Gu Yun pursed his lips, not knowing what he saw, his expression was slightly mocking, and then he glanced at Chu Mo's doctor's attire: "What about you? What research are you doing here?"

Chu Mo said seriously: "Being studied."

A nurse shouted at the right time: "Huo Yin, your activities today are over."

This scene made the audience who clicked on the trailer for the first time smile. The funny elements contained in the trailer are almost Wei Lan's established style.

Followed by the rhythmic music, a fast clip structure centered on Gu Yun's perspective appeared.

In a rehabilitation room in a hospital, a pretty girl looked at Gu Yun and said with an evaluative look:

"If we talk about the threat level, you are probably level 1."

Gu Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "...Is there no threat?"

The girl explained, "I can't say there is no threat, I can only say it is useless."

"..."Gu Yun's expression froze in place.

In the cafeteria, Qiao Jiamu, who looked like a boy next door, was sharing his knowledge with Gu Yun with great interest. He looked like he was discussing sports and girls with his classmates, but the content he said was very confusing:

"Do you know about four-dimensional vision? Time and space are both horizontally spread out and observable..."

Gu Yun was eating while discussing with him casually, with a look of disbelief on his face: "I'm confused. Do you have the four-dimensional vision you mentioned now?"

Qiao Jiamu shook his head: "Of course I can't see it now, I'm trying to open this kind of vision."

Gu Yun took a bite of rice, chewed it in big mouthfuls, and asked incoherently: "Your mind, after you have the mind vision, can you see my past and future?"

"Of course." Qiao Jiamu said excitedly: "In the four-dimensional vision, when I see you, you are in a superposition state, alive and dead, awake and asleep, eating and shitting..."

Gu Yun put down the rice in his hand, not knowing whether to swallow or spit out the rice he had just put into his mouth.

"Hahaha..."

The audience who watched most of the trailer laughed, and at this moment, it felt like the line Chu Mo said at the beginning - this mental hospital is full of talents.

After talking with three mental patients with obvious characteristics, Gu Yun frowned and said to the camera with helplessness:

"These are just delusions in your brain, and they will never happen in reality."

Until here, it seems that this is a movie about the interesting ways of mental patients.

However, just when the audience was interested in these interesting jokes, the picture suddenly switched, the music rhythm stopped, and the sound of the cello was low and soft.

Yang Xingyuan sat in an empty room with his knees hugged. The only light source in the whole room was a cold lonely lamp above his head.

He turned his face to the camera, and the light projected from the top of his head, illuminating his outline in black and white, and his face was pale without a trace of blood.

He had no expression, and even looked a little stiff. In this stiffness, there was an indescribable weirdness.

At this time, Yang Xingyuan was heard saying in a dreamy voice:

"...?"

His dark eyes looked over, as if he was looking through the screen at the audience on the other side.

With just one glance, all the audience members were pulled out of the relaxed rhythm in front of them. Their hearts were tightened, and they could not control the creepy feeling.

The screen went black, but the sound did not disappear.

The gloomy sound of the organ sounded, accompanied by countless men and women whispering in their ears.

The subtitles slowly emerged.

On March 18, the mystery came and the epidemic spread.
