A different director [entertainment circle]

Everything in the conference room was so real, but Duan Chaoyang directly passed through them, causing ripples of light.They are all holographic projections.

The Earth Alliance, currently the sole legal/legal/government of the human beings on Earth, is now holding the highest meeting of the Earth Alliance, which directly determines the future and destiny of mankind.

He was reprimanded by the other party as soon as he came, but Duan Chaoyang didn't say anything.Because he is extremely dissatisfied with these hypocritical politicians.Even at this time, mankind still has no united front.

Originally, according to Duan Chaoyang's administrative level, he was definitely not qualified to participate in today's meeting. Who made Duan Chaoyang the most outstanding commander of mankind at present?

The camera gave a close-up of Duan Chaoyang, with uneven stubble on his face, obvious dark circles under his eyes, and his mental state was also very depressed. He was sitting on a chair with his back arched, as if he might fall asleep at any time.

No one blames Duan Chaoyang, because everyone knows that Duan Chaoyang has been conducting simulated wars day and night during this period.

Virtual warfare is more tense and intense than the normal thinking process, requiring people to receive corresponding information in their brains, continuously give orders, and make immediate judgments.

Just like playing a strategy game dozens of times faster, the brain is running at a terrifying high speed.Many commanders who participated in mock warfare quit not even because of failure, but because their brains could not handle the high pressure.

Alekowski, who is the main fighter, said:

"Duan Chaoyang, do you have a way to change the ending?"

In order to find a possibility in the vast future, Duan Chaoyang conducted simulations day and night, but the result was the same failure as before.

Hearing Alekovsky's question, Duan Chaoyang shook his head in frustration.As a result, Alekowski did not speak yet, and Ovre, who was an anti-war faction, stood up and complained loudly:

"Let me just say, with such a militaristic choice, human beings have no hope. The fire plan should still be implemented."

Ovre is another high-level faction in the Earth Alliance.Their idea is very simple, they have always believed that human beings have no way to defeat silicon-based life.Technological level, individual strength, strategic literacy... nothing can compare.

Instead of engaging in a battle with no chance of winning depending on the fate and future of all mankind, it is better to immediately find a way to let a small number of human beings escape from the earth.

After all, what silicon-based life values ​​is nothing more than the planet "Earth", and the energy and life forms on it.As long as they escape from the earth, there is a high probability that silicon-based life will not continue to hunt down and kill humans.

This is the so-called "Tinder Project".

Moreover, this plan has already met the realistic conditions, and the earth technology is already quite developed.Coupled with the continuous cracking of silicon-based technology chips and the vigilance against the invasion of silicon-based life over the past few years, humans have created many space warships.

Although these warships are for combat purposes, with a little modification, they can also become spaceships carrying humans to escape from the earth.

Seeing this scene, Duan Chaoyang couldn't bear it anymore and immediately stood up, saying angrily:

"Humanity's power must be concentrated against silicon-based life, and it cannot be dispersed! What kind of fire plan will only make the only hope lost!"

Human beings now have limited materials and limited manpower, so it is impossible to balance the two options.

"But the question is that you have studied the battle plan for so long, have you ever been able to defeat silicon-based life?"

This is obviously Duan Chaoyang's Achilles' heel, all his anger was blocked in his throat and he had nowhere to vent it, so he could only sit back on the chair decadently, and thumped the conference table in front of him hard.

He has worked very hard. In the simulation system, he has tried his best to use all human resources to climb war technology and produce war equipment, but he still has no way to defeat the terrifyingly powerful silicon-based life.

No one understands the horror of silicon-based life better than Duan Chaoyang, and no one is more painful and desperate than him.

Duan Chaoyang gritted his teeth and said, "Give me a little more time."

With a triumphant smile on his face, Ovre said:

"How about giving you another 200 days, when silicon-based life will come to the earth."

In 200 days, scientists have deduced the time when silicon-based life will arrive in the solar system.

Duan Chaoyang's commanding and combat abilities are indeed very strong, but as a pure combatant, he is completely inferior to Ovre in terms of speech skills, and he is pinned down by Ovre.

Many vacillating alliance executives also showed expressions of thinking. They must also think about how to continue the fire of mankind when they have to.

Alekowski, who is a politician on the side, knows better how to deal with old fritters like Ovriel. He said:

"Yes. In order to continue human civilization, how do we determine the number of human beings? Are we randomly selected around the world?"

"In order to ensure the continuation of mankind, should young people be selected?"

"Reject the abuse of power by all privileged classes?"

Alekowski kept questioning Ovre, and every question was so sharp.

Now it was Ovre's turn to glare at Alekowski, and the reason was simple.

If Ovre agrees to Alekevsky's conditions, then he probably won't be able to be selected for the fire list.

But once he shows his yearning for the list now, Alekowski can use this to attack him.

Then it wasn't just Ovre and Alekevsky, but two factions that started attacking each other.Duan Chaoyang watched all this coldly, feeling more and more chilling in his heart.

This time, the Earth Alliance meeting ended without any accident.

And the movie has just started, and the plot has been so ups and downs in more than ten minutes, allowing the audience to see that in the face of disasters, human beings will never unite and march forward bravely against each other's enemies, but have their own little calculations.

Kong Xiuming and Carl glanced at each other secretly again, the plot of "Fortress Earth" is really too classic.Although Qin Yan is loyal to the original storyline, he has his own changes and style in the narrative, which makes their viewing experience quite comfortable.

It not only makes them, the audience who already know the plot, feel "wow, that's true" every time they see a plot point, but also has an extra sense of surprise.

What they didn't know was how much time and energy Qin Yan spent on the script of "Fortress Earth 3".Consultation with original author, business survey, peer evaluation...

Qin Yan thinks this script is the best of his commercial films so far.

After the meeting, Duan Chaoyang was still a little unhappy.

Because he had inquired about various gossip, the production lines in various fortresses had already begun to tilt towards the "fire plan".

At the same time, he could clearly feel this in the simulated war.

Obviously his battle plan became more and more mature, and the cooperation between soldiers became more and more proficient, but the military resources that could be used were less and less.

This is also one of the main reasons why human beings have not been able to achieve a qualitative leap in combat results in simulated warfare.

Alisa came over to comfort Duan Chaoyang at this time, saying:

"We can only do what we can do."

In fact, Alisa doesn't feel very comfortable. After all, she is also a staunch fighter, and she has been targeted everywhere recently.

"Fortunately, you and Shen Chunan's previous plan made these senior officials of the Earth Alliance realize that there is no possibility of peaceful coexistence between Earth humans and carbon-based life."

"Otherwise, there are still many people trying to use life-altering technology or other methods in exchange for 'peace'."

These people who always want to escape in the face of battle, when they are really facing the threat of death, can do anything, even if they are transformed into silicon-based life forms.

Fortunately, the incident of "Shen Chunan" made them realize that if they were really transformed into silicon-based life forms, when the consciousness of the "mother" came to the earth, they would probably not need to fight at all, and would be directly controlled by the "mother".

When they saw this, the audience felt a pain in their hearts, because they didn't expect Qin Yan to go too far, and to recall "Shen Chunan" at a time like this is really murderous.

What was even more exaggerated was that Qin Yan actually played back what "Shen Chunan" said to Duan Chaoyang before his death.Many people recalled "Shen Chunan", a mad scientist who dedicated his life to the earth and mankind.

After seeing this scene, many people immediately made up their minds to watch another movie starring Xie Beiyang later.

However, Kong Xiuming is very clear that Qin Yan did not design this bridge section purely to attract audiences for "Born in Silt".It is because there are a lot of descriptions of "Shen Chunan" in the original novel. Although "Shen Chunan" is a supporting role, he runs through the whole story.

Everyone thinks that this is just a dispute among human beings, and we will continue to describe the open and secret struggle between the two factions.No one thought that Duan Chaoyang and Alyssa were attacked in the fortress!

It was still a literary drama just now, but the plot suddenly changed and became exciting again!

Dozens of crystal robots suddenly appeared!The goal is not to destroy the fortress, but to kill Duan Chaoyang with all his strength.

After Duan Chaoyang escaped by chance, the Earth Alliance immediately activated the highest level of emergency.

Because this means that the troops of silicon-based life are getting closer and closer to the earth, sending a war signal to the silicon-based life that has been sleeping on the earth, and reawakening to perform tasks.

Now in the judgment of silicon-based life, Duan Chaoyang is undoubtedly the most threatening human being.

Because he has the best understanding of silicon-based life, the only human being with experience in outer space combat, and he is also the most successful commander in the current simulated war.

Instead of waiting for Duan Chaoyang to continue to grow, it is better to kill Duan Chaoyang in the cradle now.As long as Duan Chaoyang dies, the earth's defense force is not enough to worry about.

Seeing this scene, everyone lamented the horror of silicon-based life.

Although they seem to lack individual consciousness, they will use any means for a purpose.Now that they knew there was no way to avoid the war, they all tried their best to kill Duan Chaoyang, even if it was a suicide attack without any hesitation.

On the contrary, the human reaction is even more interesting.

The emergence of silicon-based life has also spread the news that the war is approaching.Immediately, some people began to accuse Duan Chaoyang and the others of provoking silicon-based life.

What is even more amazing is that some people actually started protesting in various fortresses.

"Punish war criminals! Fight for peace!"

"Why silicon-based life hasn't invaded the earth for decades or hundreds of years, and now it suddenly wants to start a war. It must be your mistake! Duan Chaoyang, you stole the chip, and silicon-based life started to fight back!"

A group of people expressed that they do not want war, and do not want to fight silicon-based life.The solution for them to get along is to hand over the war criminals like Duan Chaoyang as soon as possible, and let the silicon-based life pardon the punishment for the earth.

At the same time, after seeing the power and eternity of silicon-based life, there are also some humans who crazily worship silicon-based life.

They believe that silicon-based life is a more advanced life form and the direction of human evolution.

Moreover, it is unknown from where that the Earth Alliance has mastered the technology of complete silicon-based body transformation. At the same time, a large number of science and technology from unknown origins have appeared among the people, and a certain degree of transformation has been completed.

If it is not for the lack of equipment and materials, I am afraid that many human beings will transform into silicon-based life.

These human beings are eager to accept the guidance of silicon-based life and become eternal life.

At the same time, various insurgents also appeared in various fortresses, saying that all this was the result of the incompetence of the Earth Alliance.They demanded the formation of a new government of order; various thug organizations also appeared one after another, and began to burn the flames, pursuing whatever they wanted in the end; religious organizations emerged in an endless stream, some thought it was God's punishment, some thought it was the end of the world, and some prayed for God's forgiveness... …

In a few minutes of footage, all human history is covered.If you are familiar with the history of the world, you can see the shadows of various religions and the response of human beings to disasters in history.

This plot was added by Qin Yan himself. Qin Yan may not have experienced so much history, but Qin Yan likes to read books, from which he can get a glimpse of the past and future of mankind.

"After all, the history of mankind is a history of war."

Moreover, Xie Beiyang also provided Qin Yan with a lot of help. When writing these specific plots and drawing storyboards, the two of them would discuss together.

After the first draft was completed, Qin Yan took the script to visit some scholars of history, war, and sociology.The real history of mankind is far more bizarre and wonderful than imagined.

When shooting, Qin Yan chose to use a semi-overlooking perspective.

The emotions of the audience seem to be pulled away, and they look at the turmoil on this earth from the perspective of God. If you want to describe it, it is like a documentary called "Animal World", watching the nature and killing of animals, Can look at everything with a more objective attitude.

In fact, the original novel has described the mentality of human beings before the war very accurately, without singing praises, and without extreme slander, human nature is already complicated enough.

This is also one of the reasons why "Fortress Earth" became a classic in the first place.

Although the novel talks about the battle between two life forms, Bessel never emphasizes that human beings will definitely be able to defeat silicon-based life from the beginning to the end.

On the contrary, it vividly describes the fear, betrayal, escape, and cleverness of human beings in the face of death and war.

It is this sense of reality and powerlessness that makes readers sink into it.

This part of the plot is very important. After watching it, readers will scold/mother while thinking that this is the real human society.

Although many authors expected Qin Yan to be able to shoot the essence of the novel, they did not expect Qin Yan to do so well, far exceeding their expectations.

In addition to the difficulties in content and plot, the difficulty of shooting this scene is not low.

Whether it is protests, protests, protests, or religious ceremonies, a large number of extras need to be used.

Only when there are enough people can a magnificent, chaotic, and epic scene be displayed.There is a very difficult point in using extras. Once these extras perform sluggishly, they will immediately let the audience play.

And don't look at the low price of individual group performances, but once the number of group performances increases, the daily salary is sometimes higher than that of the lead actor.

However, they can't train them like professional actors. Even Qin Yan can't teach group performances of dozens or hundreds of people within a few hours.

So a large number of group acting roles has always been a problem in filming, but the filming just now did not feel contrived at all, the reason is very simple, Qin Yan really spent money on these scenes.

For religious ceremonies, Qin Yan asked the religious team to hold prayers; □□, Qin Yan found some NGO organizations□□...

For some pictures, I took a second shot after taking one shot.

All the hard work and dedication in the early stage and during the shooting showed the state of the earth's upheaval and fragmentation before the eyes of all audiences.

Just when the audience was amazed by Qin Yan's shooting level, and their emotions had been completely brought into the chaotic war, the plot suddenly took a turn for the worse.

Duan Chaoyang and Alyssa were hunted down again, but this time they were hunted down not by silicon-based life forms, but by human beings!

After a fierce battle, Duan Chaoyang finally killed most of the attackers and captured the leader at the same time.

Duan Chaoyang and Alyssa couldn't believe it when they confirmed the identity of the attacker.

Although they were used to so many plots and calculations, they never thought that the one who attacked them at this time was actually a human being.And several of them were comrades who fought side by side with him in the simulated world, and the leader was Alger!

Duan Chaoyang even thought whether the attackers headed by Alger were bewitched by silicon-based life.

What happened next made Duan Chaoyang have to accept this reality.

Duan Chaoyang pointed his gun at Alger, the attacker in front of him, with a serious expression on his face, and asked:

"Why did you attack me?"

Alger had just joined the army not long ago, in his early 17s.The earth is about to be destroyed, who cares what age or not, as long as they can take up arms, they have to join the army of the Earth Alliance.

With madness and hatred on his face, he shouted at Duan Chaoyang:

"It is because of you that our fire plan has been unable to start. Do you know? I am the most talented commander in these years."

"If the Fire Seed Project is carried out smoothly, no matter how you choose, there will definitely be a place for me. Even if I can't become a seeder, I can still become a guardian in the Fire Seed Project!"

"But it's you who insisted on continuing to fight against silicon-based life. It was you who made the alliance forcibly conscript me into the army!"

"I really don't want to fight against silicon-based life! I'm really afraid of them! That's an enemy that humans can't defeat. Why can't we accept defeat?"

"As long as we kill you, the battle plan will be suspended, and we will have hope of living."

When Duan Chaoyang heard these reasons, he was stunned. Alger was a young man he had always been particularly optimistic about, and he had even been thinking whether to break the rules and promote him to become the commander-in-chief of a certain theater.

I still remember that when Alger first came to the army to report to him, his face was radiant, and he vowed to wipe out all silicon-based life.

The determination at that time was definitely not a fake. What exactly wiped out Alger's fighting spirit?

Indeed, Alger has become more and more silent in the past six months.Duan Chaoyang originally thought that Alger was becoming more and more mature, but no one would have guessed that it was because he had lost confidence in the war.

Losing time and time again in simulated warfare?Facing the power of silicon-based life?Or the fear of imminent death?

Just when Duan Chaoyang had self-doubt, a bang of a gunshot awakened Duan Chaoyang.It turned out that it was Alisa on the side who directly shot Alger to death.

Duan Chaoyang's expression was very painful. This was the young man he was most optimistic about. He said to Alisa:

"Can't you just give him another chance?"

Alisa pointed to the weapon in Alger's hand, and said:

"Give him another chance, I'm afraid you will be the one who died just now."

It's not over yet.

The communication records Duan Chaoyang found on Alger made him confirm one thing. The assassination just now was not Alger's own idea, but the highest order issued by the entire anti-war faction.

It means that this matter has won the tacit approval and even promotion of the high-level Earth Alliance Ovre.

This is the ending that shocked everyone. Not only Silicon-based life regards human soldiers like Duan Chaoyang as the biggest threat, but also the anti-war faction headed by Auflie, who also want to get rid of them quickly.

If ordinary people don't understand anything and insult themselves, Duan Chaoyang can still accept it all.But the question is, as the leader of the alliance, does Ovri not understand his own experience?

As the Earth Guard back then, I dedicated myself to mankind; when I discovered the silicon-based chip, I tried to stop the research on the chip; now I want to fight against silicon-based life, and I am obliged to assume the command responsibility.

At this time, the top leaders of the Earth Alliance actually wanted to kill themselves?

Duan Chaoyang suddenly remembered everything that Shen Chunan had encountered, and couldn't help showing a self-deprecating smile.

Duan Chaoyang's expression is still very reserved, but it makes all the audience in the cinema empathize.

Complicated and hesitant... Some people complained about Duan Chaoyang, while others felt sorry for Alger.

At the beginning, they thought that there was an endless war between human beings and silicon-based noodles. Seeing such a vivid life dying in front of them, they suddenly found that it was really a mistake for human beings to fear death and flee from war?

The reason why "Earth Fortress" can become a classic is not only the grotesque and imaginative world it constructs, but also because it dissects human nature so well.

Human kindness and evil, bravery and cowardice, wisdom and ignorance, selfishness and righteousness, together they constitute human beings.

One advantage of adapting science fiction into movies is that it can express those magnificent scenes with more direct rendering and appeal.

But sometimes it is difficult for human acting skills to express the complex emotions described in words, and more grand narratives require the audience to figure out and interpret slowly.

However, Qin Yan presented these complexities in front of the audience like a dingo unraveling an ox.

This is the skill of a top director, how to transform text into pictures and make the pictures more layered.
