Walk around the United States with the earth in your arms
Chapter 135 Frustration
Song Fang thought about it, it wasn't impossible. .biquge
Although he is pressed for time in the main universe, considering the speed of time on both sides, it doesn't matter if he plays for a few days.
So, in the next week, Song Fang had a lot of fun with Ruiwen. The brother and sister didn't go home together until the last two days of the holiday.
They didn't make any arrangements for the past two days. Ruiwen spends every day with her parents, reading books, sleeping until she wakes up naturally, and enjoying a weekend that she has not enjoyed in several years.
Song Fang went to find Charles.
"I plan to publish another paper this year, hoping to get a wider response."
Charles said. "The elite circle is still not very interested in mutant genes. Song Fang, I think the plan we made before may not be so in line with reality."
"If it doesn't comply, then it doesn't comply. The plan can't change quickly." Song Fang spread his hands and said freely, "Isn't the line of transforming public opinion different from the previous plan?"
Charles nodded in agreement.
They originally planned to use gorgeous special effects to make the general public yearn for mutants, but when the film and television company was established, they discovered a very serious problem:
They have no money.
Yes. Even if Song Fang extorted three million from Hu Hu Gang, they still had no money.
For the cost of a movie, three million is nothing. Not to mention the special effects movies that cost grandma's house.
This was still in the 1950s. In the 21st century, the cost of a high-quality special effects movie can easily reach hundreds of millions or three million, which may not even be enough to buy lunch boxes for the crew.
During the period of financial constraints, Charles had the idea of selling land, but Song Fang stopped him. The price of land in the Lighthouse Country has also increased significantly. It is more cost-effective to keep that land than to sell it. Maybe it can be used for something in the future.
So since they have no money and don't want to sell the land, how can they make the movie?
Song Fang changed his strategy and gave up the idea of shooting special effects movies. He used low-cost horror movies as a breakthrough to make the first pot of gold for the company.
Charles was originally skeptical about Song Fang's idea, but after he read the story provided by Song Fang, he couldn't help but marveled and immediately said let's do it!
Charles was in charge of directing and other actors. In the literary and artistic circles of the Lighthouse Country in this era, there are a group of capable directors, screenwriters and actors who have been persecuted for some unspeakable reason and are desperate. Mobian Company decisively threw an olive branch to them, acquiring extremely high-quality resources at extremely low prices. The 1950s version of "Saw" was an instant hit, thanks to these outstanding talents.
After the success, Song Fang and Charles once again fell into differences of opinion. Song Fang believes that we should strike while the iron is hot and launch the second part of "Saw" to build the "Saw" brand. But Charles is worried that this will limit the development direction of Mobian Company and make the company stereotype in the public impression.
If the public believes that the Monster Company is a horror film maker, then when they reveal the existence of mutants, won't the public think that "mutants are just a group of jigsaws"?
This future... doesn't seem very good...
So Song Fang listened to Charles's suggestion and brought out stories from several other movies to discuss with Charles. The two of them didn't want to go too far and risk their lives, so they chose a thriller with a similar temperament to a horror film. After the success of films such as "Mulholland Drive" and "Black Swan", they made another transformation and filmed " The Wizard of Oz.
While these movies were being made, the talent Charles recruited had been polishing the script for "Blue Man." After several years of hard work, "Blue Man" was a great success. It planted a seed of sympathy in people's hearts for people who are "not of my kind", and even entered the house. It was recognized by prestigious awards, which greatly exceeded Song Fang's performance. and Charles' expectations.
But their attack on the elite circle did not go smoothly.
Their original idea was to use the scientific research circle as their breakthrough point. Yet the industry's response to Charles' discovery was muted. Charles was depressed. He thought that the "mutant gene" was too plain and everyone had it, so no one paid attention to it. But even though his subsequent papers involved the "mutant genes" that he was proud of, no one cared.
Song Fang analyzed the reasons and believed that the reason why people did not pay attention to Charles' remarks was probably because no one believed that there were "mutants" in the world.
So when will they believe that there are "mutants" in the world?
In the original movie, it was when they were afraid of mutants.
And this is exactly what Song Fang and Charles tried their best to avoid.
"If people don't realize that there are mutants living around them, then they won't care about things about 'mutants', whether it's speeches or papers. But when they notice, it will shape their perception of mutants, Isn’t it a little late?”
Charles scratched his head. He felt like he was at a dead end.
"It would be okay if we just didn't pay attention..." Song Fang said thoughtfully, "I'm just afraid that someone is already targeting us."
Charles quickly asked: "Who?"
Song Fang couldn't name Hydra, so he shook his head: "I don't know who it is. But think about it, who is the mastermind behind the development of Banana Fish? Why do they need a method that can control people's minds? Potion? When they discover that there is a group of people born with special powers, how will they treat this group of people?"
If it were a militant mutant, I'm afraid they would say "Then we must have the power to protect ourselves.", or simply think of ways to conquer the world.
But Charles has always aimed for the peaceful coexistence of humans and mutants. He frowned, thought for a while, and then asked thoughtfully: "You and I only destroyed Banana Fish's information at that time, and did not destroy the organization. If the creation of Banana Fish was indeed an organized act, they might The presence of mutants has been noted.”
Song Fang nodded. This was one of the things that worried him.
"But they didn't make any move, why?" Charles continued to ask, "Are they not paying attention? Or... is there a possibility that someone is covering us?"
"I don't know if it is true, but I think it is possible." Song Fang said.
In "Days of Future Past", why does Lao Wan take risks? Even if the risk results in him being imprisoned under the Pentagon?
In the movie, Lao Wan said, "Because he is one of us." This is probably what he meant.
This is very interesting.
It is well known that mutant abilities are heritable.
And it’s not like mutants didn’t appear until modern times.
Outsiders don't know mutants exist. But within the family where the mutant gene has awakened, I am afraid that they are aware of the existence of mutants.
And if an elite family happens to be a mutant family, does that mean that there is a potential protective shield there, waiting for Song Fang and Charles to discover it?
