A different director [entertainment circle]
Chapter 167 Chapter 167 "Prosperity"
"The legend of the Jiuding already appeared in the Xia and Shang Dynasties. It was used to suppress the luck of the human race and ensure the inheritance of the human race for thousands of years. The Jiuding became the symbol of the Lord of Shenzhou and the authority of the world."
"Anyone who can possess the Nine Tripods will be able to gain the power to control the world."
"It is said that the one who wins the Nine Cauldrons wins the world. It is not a rumor."
Speaking of these secrets, Gong Shuzi's face was also full of sorrow.Ordinary people don't know the mystery behind it even if they have extraordinary powers. Shui Huaisang's talent is far superior to his own. Even if he doesn't say it, Gongshuzi will know it one day.
"It's just that no matter how miraculous the Nine Cauldrons are, nothing in this world can resist the erosion of time. It's like the vicissitudes of life and the division and reunification of the world."
"No one knows that the Jiuding is not a real thing at all, and no one knows that since the Shang Dynasty, no one in the world has raised the Jiuding again."
"The reason why our schools of thought can use all kinds of extraordinary powers is because the schools of thought have been recognized by Jiuding."
"It's just that each school has a different degree of recognition, and the nine cauldrons it controls are not the same. And it will change accordingly with the growth and decline of the school."
Shui Huaisang, who had always taken it for granted that the Mohist school had magical powers, asked curiously, "Then, how much does our Mohist school have?"
Speaking of this topic, Gong Shuzi was full of pride: "My Mohist school can still control a quarter of Jiuding!"
Facing the pride of his own giant, Shui Huaisang said disappointedly: "It's only a quarter."
Gong Shuzi took the bamboo slip in his hand and slapped Shui Huaisang on the head, saying, "Do you think that a quarter is very little?"
"Don't look at our Mohism's downfall now, we were the only school that could compete with Confucianism back then. When Mozi was still alive, we had a complete Jiuding, which was enough to fight against Confucianism."
"The most holy teacher once said: In this world, the nine cauldrons belong to the king, the second belongs to the king, the third belongs to the hundred families, and the remaining four belong to the people!"
"However, with the strength of these Qin countries, the Baijia may not even have two tripods now."
Gongshuzi didn't want to talk about these bad things anymore, so he said instead:
"There is a mysterious connection between the nine cauldrons, especially the fragments of the same nine cauldrons. The connection is more obvious. I am afraid that people from other schools have completely surrendered to the first emperor, so he can easily find us."
"Then we just need to give up Jiuding, can't we?"
Gongshuzi said helplessly, "There are no such simple things in this world."
Although Jiuding is a good thing, it is not an artifact that you give up if you want to.
Gongshuzi was able to condense all the luck of their Mohist school on himself, and then cut off the connection with Jiuding by committing suicide.But if he dies, there will be no one who can protect the Mohist sect anymore.
With the loss of Jiuding, the Mohist school will lose all kinds of magical powers, but it does not mean that the first emperor let the Mohist school go.
The greatest and most terrifying thing in this world is thought, just like weeds, once the spring breeze comes, they will grow endlessly.
As long as the Mohist school is not extinct, someone may regain control of the Mohist ideology and Jiuding once a day.
The best choice for the first emperor is to completely exterminate the Mohist school, burn all the books, or collect and compile them into the "Book of Qin".
Without the power of Jiuding, facing Qin's pursuit, the ending at that time is self-evident.
So Gongshuzi had to choose the worst solution - go to Xianyang to negotiate with Shihuang, if the negotiation is not clear, then the outcome will be decided.
At the very least, it is necessary to figure out the reason why Qin Shihuang was so aggressive towards them. Gongshuzi always felt that there were other reasons behind it.
Gongshuzi was planning to go to Xianyang alone, but Shui Huaisang refused.As the senior brother of the entire school, Shui Huaisang, if he stays, he will have to take on the responsibility of being a "giant" for Gongshuzi, and he will be cautious in everything. This is not the life he longs for.
Gongshuzi also knew Shui Huaisang's character, and the second junior brother who was a few years older than Shui Huaisang might be more suitable for the master of success.
So after some consideration, Gongshuzi finally agreed to take Shui Huaisang to Xianyang.
----
Kong Xiuming asked Carl with some concern: "Can you understand the plot?"
Carl nodded: "In order to take care of us audiences, Director Qin slowed down the narrative a lot. I can fully understand the background and setting."
Hearing this answer, Kong Xiuming was relieved a lot. Not only was he happy that Karl could understand the plot, but he was also excited that "Prosperity" could be accepted by overseas audiences.
Because the setting of "Prosperity" is too fantasy and complicated, many things are unfamiliar to domestic audiences, so Qin Yan had to spend some pictures to explain.
But how to explain is a big problem. The explanation of many movies is a PPT-like background board, and then the text appears, accompanied by narration.
It cannot be said to save costs, it can only be said to be cutting corners.
But just now when Qin Yan was explaining the setting, he directly filmed a play within a play, and also used quite realistic special effects.Although the setting is almost mythical, it doesn't feel like a drama at all.
Like many audience members, Kong Xiuming shouted from the bottom of his heart: "Director Qin, awesome! Director Qin, you are rich!"
----
After leaving the village where they lived in seclusion for many years, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang did not go directly to Xianyang, but first went to find the descendants of other schools.
With the current strength of the Mohists, Gongshuzi knew that he had no way to compete with Qin Shihuang, and they could only place their hopes on other schools that were also persecuted.
If the Hundred Families can really unite, at least they have the qualifications to negotiate with Shihuang.
Before that, Shui Huaisang hated Shihuang and Qin.Even if he called himself the "Emperor of the First Emperor", he caused the Mohists to go into exile and killed many of his younger brothers and sisters.
But when Shui Huaisang followed Gongshuzi to travel all over the Qin country, looking for the heirs of other schools, Shui Huaisang gradually formed his own impression in his heart.
It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.seeing is believing.
Although Qin's laws are strict and the people are in dire straits, it can be seen that the goal of Qin's reform is to make the whole country stronger as soon as possible.
Why the rapid development?As a king, Emperor Qin kept waving his long whip behind the people, and the people were driven forward like plow horses.
Whether this approach is correct or not, Shui Huaisang has no answer.
One day, when Shui Huaisang was discussing Daoism with Gongshuzi, he couldn't help sighing, "If the King of Qin had been more generous and didn't have to be so eager for quick success, he might really be called the emperor through the ages."
Hearing Shui Huaisang's evaluation of Qin Shihuang, Gongshuzi finally showed a satisfied smile. He didn't rush straight to Xianyang with Shui Huaisang, so why didn't he want to wait for Shui Huaisang to see the world more?
No matter what others say about Qin Shihuang, you should really distinguish it yourself.Seeing that Shui Huaisang was not as pure and extreme as before, Gong Shuzi was very relieved.
Thinking of confronting such a character, Gong Shuzi could only smile helplessly.
The world is so big, apart from Shihuang, Gongshuzi wants Qin Yanshui and Huaisang to have a look at too many people, such as the heirs of the hundred families!
In fact, their whereabouts are not difficult to find, because many schools are not as difficult as they are.
The reason is very simple. When Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, there were few schools that directly opposed Qin, while the Mohist school, which inherited the concepts of "universal love" and "non-aggression", not only opposed it, but also practiced it.The Mohists not only appealed verbally, but even organized their own army, made machine beasts and machine men, and called on craftsmen from all over the world to fight against Qin.
"The Mohists focus on invigorating the world and saving the disadvantages, and transform into a chivalrous man."
At that time, Mozi was alive, and the reputation of the Mohist school was as high as the sky. He raised his arms, and the prestige of the Qin State was greatly affected. The first emperor hated the Mohist school.
Now to liquidate, since it should start from Mohism.
In other words, the situation of other schools is not as bad as the situation without the Mohist school.
Legalism has gradually surrendered to the Qin Dynasty, and the whole school is vaguely headed by Prime Minister Li Si; as for Confucianism, it also plays a role in the current Qin Emperor's rule of the world, and is submitting to Qin; Shihuang is closely related.
"Everyone is confused! My Mo family is just the beginning, and Emperor Qin will never stop there!" No one answered Gongshuzi's earnest words.
----
Viewers such as Kong Xiuming and Carl discovered one thing, that is, when Qin Yan was making movies, he seemed to be constantly questioning the most fundamental and symbolic theories and viewpoints of each school of life.
The views of each school have their merits, but is this the true thought of the inheritors of each school?
At least the heirs of the various families in the movie are not saints, some are greedy for life, some are after profit, and no one is willing to go to Xianyang with Gongshuzi.
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall" and "the law is as solid as one", can be described as eloquent.
Shui Huaisang complained to Gongshuzi more than once that these people are greedy for life and afraid of death.Shui Huaisang just said calmly: "Everyone in the world praises benevolence and righteousness, because the world lacks and lacks it."
After all the history has been continuously compressed, it has formed a rigid symbol, which makes people ignore the real complexity of human beings. Qin Yan is reflecting on these cultural symbols through the plot.
The audience can easily bring in the roles of Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang, one is the current Mohist tycoon, and if nothing else happens, the other will be the next Mohist tycoon.
Similarly, they are not perfect existences, irritable, inflexible, extreme...
The plot is connected through many small events and gorgeous pictures, which makes the audience mesmerized.
First of all, the plot must be interesting, otherwise the audience will not have the leisure to listen to Qin Yan's lectures.
----
At first, Gongshuzi thought that the first emperor wanted to eradicate all the schools, so as to gain the luck of the schools.
But after getting in touch with the heirs of the Hundred Schools, Gongshuzi had a different view. Many schools had lost their vitality, and luck itself was passing away. As long as the Qin Dynasty continued to expand, the luck of the world would naturally flow into the hands of Shi Huang.
Shihuang didn't have to risk the world's disapproval to make such a hunt. The complaints from the people have spread, so that cracks and crises have appeared in Shihuang's rule.
Shui Huaisang also discussed this issue with Gongshuzi, and he said, "Young man, I always feel that Shihuang must have something to hide, and he was forced to make these decisions."
But Gongshuzi still gritted his teeth and said: "If there is any unspeakable secret, if his heart is heartless and his actions are unrighteous, then it is wrong."
Regarding Gongshuzi's thoughts, Shui Huaisang has no way to change it.Because what they Mohists pay attention to is righteousness and integrity, and the teacher is famous.
In the whole world, the school in the worst situation is the Mohist school that pursues "universal love", which makes the audience feel a little bit embarrassed.
As a last resort, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang chose to go to Xianyang alone.
On the way to the west, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang heard some news again. The first emperor sent Xu Fu, a well-known alchemist in the world, to help him go to Penglai Xianshan to find the legendary elixir of immortality.
If it is in other movies, everyone will think that this is completely nonsense, but considering the background of "Hundred Schools", the legend of immortality seems to be a little more authentic.
This time when Shi Huang left Xianyang, apart from Xu Fu heading east to the sea, Shi Huang also had his own purpose - he was going to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen!
Gongshuzi seemed to have guessed something, and said to Shui Huaisang, "No, I have to stop Shihuang quickly."
The road is not peaceful, and every audience can feel the tension hidden behind the prosperity.There are alchemists and warlords who cause chaos, there are schools of thought that bully people, and there are cruel officials who enslave the people...
This troubled world did not end because of the unification of the six countries, but intensified instead.
----
Carl asked in a low voice, "Do you think Qin Shihuang is a bad guy?"
Karl doesn't know much about the history of Hua, but he has heard about Qin Shihuang.After all, in world history, Qin Shihuang, like Alexander, Genghis Khan, and Constantine, belonged to the same emperor through the ages.
Kong Xiuming shook his head, expressing that he didn't know either: "I guess Director Qin won't portray a pure villain, he has always disliked facial makeup characters."
Obviously Kong Xiuming was completely attracted by Qin Yan's movie, and began to guess the next plot, and this is the charm of Qin Yan's movie.
----
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang came to Mount Tai ahead of time. They searched for gold, stone, iron and wood in Mount Tai, and began to make mechanisms.
Because the two of them know that with their own strength, they have no way to confront the first emperor who has tens of millions of soldiers, and the agency is the only existence they can rely on.
This part of the plot is completely showing off skills, and the audience who watched it screamed again and again.
Human imagination has been brought into full play!
Before the arrival of the first emperor, Gongshuzi did something that no one expected. He used a drug to stun Shui Huai Sang, and then sent Shui Huai Sang away from Mount Tai with a mechanism bird.
This battle should be more ominous than good.Shui Huai Sang is the pride of Gongshuzi's life, and also the hope of the Mohist family in the future. Gongshuzi doesn't want to see this Shui Huai Sang ruin the future.
If the first emperor appeared on Mount Tai's Fengchan platform as scheduled, Gongshuzi was going to ask the first emperor for a word, but just as he was about to show up, accidents happened one after another.
First of all, Shui Huaisang actually came back, and he said to Gongshuzi very confidently: "Young man, you have underestimated me too much. If I can't even understand your worries, then how can my travels during this period be?" Isn't it all in vain?"
Shui Huaisang would not give Gongshuzi another chance to stun him, and made it clear that he wanted to assassinate the First Emperor together.Gongshuzi could only sigh helplessly.
With the heart of a knight-errant and a lonesome courage, even if he knows he will die, he will have no regrets.
Gongshuzi didn't have time to send people out of the mountain again, so he could only choose to let Shui Huaisang join the battle. If he failed today, then it would be a catastrophe for Shui Huaisang to hit him.
But who knew that the appearance of Shui Huaisang was just the first accident. While the two were talking, suddenly the mountains shook and the ground shook, destroying forests and trees, and a group of inhuman creatures suddenly appeared and began to attack Qin Shihuang frantically.
Shui Huaisang said nervously: "Juzi, is it the monster recorded in the "Previous Desolation Classic"?"
Gong Shuzi nodded solemnly and said, "I'm afraid it really is a monster."
When seeing these things, the audience was also surprised. They did not expect that "Hundred Schools" would incorporate mythological elements, which has surpassed the limit of historical dramas.
Moreover, Chinese audiences such as Kong Xiuming can see many familiar shadows in various monsters, such as the "shaped fish with a bare back" Hua Yu, "whose shape is like a jade with tattoos, good at smiling, and lying down when seeing people" of the secluded.
They are not only powerful and tyrannical, but also have their own magical powers.
These monsters were menacing and fearless of death, which put a lot of pressure on Shi Huang's army.
In fact, the strength of Qin's army is not weak anymore, and it has the power to kill and attack. It is difficult for all schools to get benefits from them.
Even if the road to Mount Tai was really difficult, Shihuang only brought hundreds of elites, but the number of monsters was not many, only a few dozen.It is really surprising that Qin Jun was at a disadvantage.
Shui Huaisang asked in a low voice, "Juzi, are we going to take this opportunity to attack Shihuang?"
Although there are only the two of them, Gong Shuzi is the current Mohist giant, holding a quarter of Jiuding.In other words, there are at most a dozen people who can surpass him in strength in this world. On this chaotic battlefield, he can definitely play a role in stabilizing the country.
Without any hesitation, Gongshuzi shook his head and said, "Help Shi Huang kill monsters."
Shui Huaisang also wondered why his master was so decisive.But as a student, he didn't ask much, and rushed out to fight with the monster.
Next, Qin Yan brought the most exciting fight scene to all the audience, which can be called an absolute visual feast!
On the one hand, Gongshuzi, as the successor of the Mohist school, while manipulating various organs, he spoke out and wrote into paintings, showing all the magic of Huaguo mythology.
On the other hand, these monsters are different. Their shapes combine the traditional Chinese mythology and international aesthetics, so that Chinese and Western audiences can feel the power and terrifying beauty.
The battle scene was quite chaotic, and the first emperor's soldiers and alchemists also showed their terrifying abilities.
Crush the mountains and crack the earth, burn the sky and boil the sea!
The number of monsters is not endless. After the number of these monsters stopped increasing, Shi Huang, who had not made any movement, suddenly recited in a low voice:
"The widow is the master of the human race, how dare the monsters!"
The entire Mount Tai was shrouded in terrifying gravity in an instant, and the luck of the human race was suddenly suppressed, as if in essence, weakening the power of these monsters by more than [-]%, and the next battle would be one-sided.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but during the process of killing the monsters, the Qin Emperor's army never attacked the two strangers, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang.
After strangling all the surrounding monsters, Shihuang still stood on the white jade high platform used to seal Zen, looked down at the two, and said in a calm voice:
"Gong Shuzi, I didn't expect you to dare to appear here. You are indeed one of the most admired people."
This is a compliment, which represents Qin Shihuang's approval of Gongshuzi.
In fact, Gong Shuzi already had some clarity on his face at this time, and he still asked directly: "Qin Huang, is this your purpose?"
Qin Shihuang said calmly: "Yes."
Not surprised or happy, not in a hurry.The demeanor of an emperor through the ages can be seen at a glance.
Shui Huaisang asked in a low voice, "Ju Zi, what exactly does this mean?"
Gongshuzi revealed all the plans he guessed: "Shui Huaisang, do you know the situation between the heaven and the earth before the establishment of the Xia Dynasty of the human race?"
Shui Huaisang said hesitantly: "I have seen some records in the "Shang Ben Ji"."
Before the establishment of the human dynasty, the masters of this land were not human beings, but the monster races who were born strong, went to heaven and earth, and had various types and their own magical powers.
It's just that the luck of the human race is getting better and better, and they gradually won the control of the Kyushu from the Yaozu.Then King Xia condensed the nine tripods together with the world's demon skeletons and the luck of the human race, and then used them to suppress the world's monster races.
The monster clan who lost the blessing of luck fled from the land of China, and then human beings became the protagonists of history.
But the problem is that there is no permanent country in this world. With the decline and collapse of Xia, Shang, and Zhou, the Jiuding was also scattered between the heaven and the earth.
Afterwards, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period passed, and the Jiuding was even more torn apart. As the most holy teacher said, the Jiuding was lost, which is as magical as this complete Jiuding.
Those monster races who had escaped into the barren mountains and wild mountains and escaped from the mainland of China have made a comeback again. They want to break up the nine tripods and regain the luck of China!
Shihuang, who had been expressionless all this time, finally showed a little appreciation in his eyes, and said, "Gongshuzi, I didn't expect you to be so open-minded as to be able to see through this history."
Gongshuzi was still a little puzzled, and asked: "But this is not right. If you come to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen, you want to inherit the world's nine tripods. Then you can't hunt down hundreds of families and cause too many killings. You will definitely not be able to get the Divine Nine Tripods." approval."
This Jiuding is a spiritual creature of heaven and earth. Although it has no independent consciousness, it will never recognize the devil who kills without blinking an eye.
"The most correct way should be to use a hundred years to slowly make the race stronger, and then defeat the monster race, and Shenzhou Jiuding will naturally recognize you."
However, Qin Shihuang was very disdainful of Gongshuzi's plan. He turned around and looked up at the sky, looking directly at the scorching sun, and said loudly:
"I don't have so much time to spend with these ghosts and monsters. Since I can unify the world, I can naturally clear the universe. I am not afraid of the human race, and I am even more fearless of the monster race!"
"It doesn't matter if he doesn't want the Nine Tripod Emperor of Xia Shang, this king has his own way to recast the luck, and make this world return to one!"
This is Qin Shihuang's real wish. The reason why he changed the king to the emperor, why didn't he look down on other ancient kings in his heart?
He thinks that he is the emperor through the ages, so naturally he should change the sun and the moon into a new sky.
He couldn't wait to kill all the scholars, just to let their luck dissipate and return to the world, so that he could re-condense the magic weapon of luck like the nine tripods!
Suppress the monster race and protect the human race.
The Qin State will last forever, and the mountains and rivers will last forever!
Both Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang were shocked by Qin Shihuang's plan, and they thought of the Great Wall and canals they had seen along the way.
This is all playing against the heavens and the earth with the chess of mountains and rivers and the luck of the human race!
It is said that Qin Shihuang was a great success. Qin Shihuang must use thousands of years of merit in one battle, so naturally he will fight with his back.
But Gongshuzi's expression was not at all relaxed, and he continued in a low voice: "So my battle today is still inevitable?"
Suddenly enlightenment arose in his heart, and when Shui Huai Sang was about to speak, Gongshuzi suddenly stretched out his hand and held Shui Huai Sang in place. Completely blocked.
Shui Huai Sang felt endless pain in his heart, and his voice trembled: "Young man, no!"
Gongshuzi didn't explain, and went straight to Shihuang.All the soldiers and alchemists around Qin Shihuang immediately stood ready for fear that Gongshuzi would hurt Shihuang.
On the contrary, Qin Shihuang was not nervous at all, and even had the most obvious smile so far on his face:
"That's right, Gongshuzi, you are qualified to let the widow do it himself."
"Anyone who can possess the Nine Tripods will be able to gain the power to control the world."
"It is said that the one who wins the Nine Cauldrons wins the world. It is not a rumor."
Speaking of these secrets, Gong Shuzi's face was also full of sorrow.Ordinary people don't know the mystery behind it even if they have extraordinary powers. Shui Huaisang's talent is far superior to his own. Even if he doesn't say it, Gongshuzi will know it one day.
"It's just that no matter how miraculous the Nine Cauldrons are, nothing in this world can resist the erosion of time. It's like the vicissitudes of life and the division and reunification of the world."
"No one knows that the Jiuding is not a real thing at all, and no one knows that since the Shang Dynasty, no one in the world has raised the Jiuding again."
"The reason why our schools of thought can use all kinds of extraordinary powers is because the schools of thought have been recognized by Jiuding."
"It's just that each school has a different degree of recognition, and the nine cauldrons it controls are not the same. And it will change accordingly with the growth and decline of the school."
Shui Huaisang, who had always taken it for granted that the Mohist school had magical powers, asked curiously, "Then, how much does our Mohist school have?"
Speaking of this topic, Gong Shuzi was full of pride: "My Mohist school can still control a quarter of Jiuding!"
Facing the pride of his own giant, Shui Huaisang said disappointedly: "It's only a quarter."
Gong Shuzi took the bamboo slip in his hand and slapped Shui Huaisang on the head, saying, "Do you think that a quarter is very little?"
"Don't look at our Mohism's downfall now, we were the only school that could compete with Confucianism back then. When Mozi was still alive, we had a complete Jiuding, which was enough to fight against Confucianism."
"The most holy teacher once said: In this world, the nine cauldrons belong to the king, the second belongs to the king, the third belongs to the hundred families, and the remaining four belong to the people!"
"However, with the strength of these Qin countries, the Baijia may not even have two tripods now."
Gongshuzi didn't want to talk about these bad things anymore, so he said instead:
"There is a mysterious connection between the nine cauldrons, especially the fragments of the same nine cauldrons. The connection is more obvious. I am afraid that people from other schools have completely surrendered to the first emperor, so he can easily find us."
"Then we just need to give up Jiuding, can't we?"
Gongshuzi said helplessly, "There are no such simple things in this world."
Although Jiuding is a good thing, it is not an artifact that you give up if you want to.
Gongshuzi was able to condense all the luck of their Mohist school on himself, and then cut off the connection with Jiuding by committing suicide.But if he dies, there will be no one who can protect the Mohist sect anymore.
With the loss of Jiuding, the Mohist school will lose all kinds of magical powers, but it does not mean that the first emperor let the Mohist school go.
The greatest and most terrifying thing in this world is thought, just like weeds, once the spring breeze comes, they will grow endlessly.
As long as the Mohist school is not extinct, someone may regain control of the Mohist ideology and Jiuding once a day.
The best choice for the first emperor is to completely exterminate the Mohist school, burn all the books, or collect and compile them into the "Book of Qin".
Without the power of Jiuding, facing Qin's pursuit, the ending at that time is self-evident.
So Gongshuzi had to choose the worst solution - go to Xianyang to negotiate with Shihuang, if the negotiation is not clear, then the outcome will be decided.
At the very least, it is necessary to figure out the reason why Qin Shihuang was so aggressive towards them. Gongshuzi always felt that there were other reasons behind it.
Gongshuzi was planning to go to Xianyang alone, but Shui Huaisang refused.As the senior brother of the entire school, Shui Huaisang, if he stays, he will have to take on the responsibility of being a "giant" for Gongshuzi, and he will be cautious in everything. This is not the life he longs for.
Gongshuzi also knew Shui Huaisang's character, and the second junior brother who was a few years older than Shui Huaisang might be more suitable for the master of success.
So after some consideration, Gongshuzi finally agreed to take Shui Huaisang to Xianyang.

Kong Xiuming asked Carl with some concern: "Can you understand the plot?"
Carl nodded: "In order to take care of us audiences, Director Qin slowed down the narrative a lot. I can fully understand the background and setting."
Hearing this answer, Kong Xiuming was relieved a lot. Not only was he happy that Karl could understand the plot, but he was also excited that "Prosperity" could be accepted by overseas audiences.
Because the setting of "Prosperity" is too fantasy and complicated, many things are unfamiliar to domestic audiences, so Qin Yan had to spend some pictures to explain.

It cannot be said to save costs, it can only be said to be cutting corners.

After leaving the village where they lived in seclusion for many years, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang did not go directly to Xianyang, but first went to find the descendants of other schools.
With the current strength of the Mohists, Gongshuzi knew that he had no way to compete with Qin Shihuang, and they could only place their hopes on other schools that were also persecuted.
If the Hundred Families can really unite, at least they have the qualifications to negotiate with Shihuang.

The views of each school have their merits, but is this the true thought of the inheritors of each school?
At least the heirs of the various families in the movie are not saints, some are greedy for life, some are after profit, and no one is willing to go to Xianyang with Gongshuzi.
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall" and "the law is as solid as one", can be described as eloquent.
Shui Huaisang complained to Gongshuzi more than once that these people are greedy for life and afraid of death.Shui Huaisang just said calmly: "Everyone in the world praises benevolence and righteousness, because the world lacks and lacks it."
After all the history has been continuously compressed, it has formed a rigid symbol, which makes people ignore the real complexity of human beings. Qin Yan is reflecting on these cultural symbols through the plot.
The audience can easily bring in the roles of Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang, one is the current Mohist tycoon, and if nothing else happens, the other will be the next Mohist tycoon.
Similarly, they are not perfect existences, irritable, inflexible, extreme...
The plot is connected through many small events and gorgeous pictures, which makes the audience mesmerized.
First of all, the plot must be interesting, otherwise the audience will not have the leisure to listen to Qin Yan's lectures.
----
At first, Gongshuzi thought that the first emperor wanted to eradicate all the schools, so as to gain the luck of the schools.
But after getting in touch with the heirs of the Hundred Schools, Gongshuzi had a different view. Many schools had lost their vitality, and luck itself was passing away. As long as the Qin Dynasty continued to expand, the luck of the world would naturally flow into the hands of Shi Huang.
Shihuang didn't have to risk the world's disapproval to make such a hunt. The complaints from the people have spread, so that cracks and crises have appeared in Shihuang's rule.
Shui Huaisang also discussed this issue with Gongshuzi, and he said, "Young man, I always feel that Shihuang must have something to hide, and he was forced to make these decisions."
But Gongshuzi still gritted his teeth and said: "If there is any unspeakable secret, if his heart is heartless and his actions are unrighteous, then it is wrong."
Regarding Gongshuzi's thoughts, Shui Huaisang has no way to change it.Because what they Mohists pay attention to is righteousness and integrity, and the teacher is famous.
In the whole world, the school in the worst situation is the Mohist school that pursues "universal love", which makes the audience feel a little bit embarrassed.
As a last resort, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang chose to go to Xianyang alone.
On the way to the west, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang heard some news again. The first emperor sent Xu Fu, a well-known alchemist in the world, to help him go to Penglai Xianshan to find the legendary elixir of immortality.
If it is in other movies, everyone will think that this is completely nonsense, but considering the background of "Hundred Schools", the legend of immortality seems to be a little more authentic.
This time when Shi Huang left Xianyang, apart from Xu Fu heading east to the sea, Shi Huang also had his own purpose - he was going to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen!
Gongshuzi seemed to have guessed something, and said to Shui Huaisang, "No, I have to stop Shihuang quickly."
The road is not peaceful, and every audience can feel the tension hidden behind the prosperity.There are alchemists and warlords who cause chaos, there are schools of thought that bully people, and there are cruel officials who enslave the people...
This troubled world did not end because of the unification of the six countries, but intensified instead.

Carl asked in a low voice, "Do you think Qin Shihuang is a bad guy?"
Karl doesn't know much about the history of Hua, but he has heard about Qin Shihuang.After all, in world history, Qin Shihuang, like Alexander, Genghis Khan, and Constantine, belonged to the same emperor through the ages.
Kong Xiuming shook his head, expressing that he didn't know either: "I guess Director Qin won't portray a pure villain, he has always disliked facial makeup characters."
Obviously Kong Xiuming was completely attracted by Qin Yan's movie, and began to guess the next plot, and this is the charm of Qin Yan's movie.
----
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang came to Mount Tai ahead of time. They searched for gold, stone, iron and wood in Mount Tai, and began to make mechanisms.
Because the two of them know that with their own strength, they have no way to confront the first emperor who has tens of millions of soldiers, and the agency is the only existence they can rely on.
This part of the plot is completely showing off skills, and the audience who watched it screamed again and again.
Human imagination has been brought into full play!
Before the arrival of the first emperor, Gongshuzi did something that no one expected. He used a drug to stun Shui Huai Sang, and then sent Shui Huai Sang away from Mount Tai with a mechanism bird.
This battle should be more ominous than good.Shui Huai Sang is the pride of Gongshuzi's life, and also the hope of the Mohist family in the future. Gongshuzi doesn't want to see this Shui Huai Sang ruin the future.
If the first emperor appeared on Mount Tai's Fengchan platform as scheduled, Gongshuzi was going to ask the first emperor for a word, but just as he was about to show up, accidents happened one after another.
First of all, Shui Huaisang actually came back, and he said to Gongshuzi very confidently: "Young man, you have underestimated me too much. If I can't even understand your worries, then how can my travels during this period be?" Isn't it all in vain?"
Shui Huaisang would not give Gongshuzi another chance to stun him, and made it clear that he wanted to assassinate the First Emperor together.Gongshuzi could only sigh helplessly.
With the heart of a knight-errant and a lonesome courage, even if he knows he will die, he will have no regrets.
Gongshuzi didn't have time to send people out of the mountain again, so he could only choose to let Shui Huaisang join the battle. If he failed today, then it would be a catastrophe for Shui Huaisang to hit him.
But who knew that the appearance of Shui Huaisang was just the first accident. While the two were talking, suddenly the mountains shook and the ground shook, destroying forests and trees, and a group of inhuman creatures suddenly appeared and began to attack Qin Shihuang frantically.
Shui Huaisang said nervously: "Juzi, is it the monster recorded in the "Previous Desolation Classic"?"
Gong Shuzi nodded solemnly and said, "I'm afraid it really is a monster."
When seeing these things, the audience was also surprised. They did not expect that "Hundred Schools" would incorporate mythological elements, which has surpassed the limit of historical dramas.
Moreover, Chinese audiences such as Kong Xiuming can see many familiar shadows in various monsters, such as the "shaped fish with a bare back" Hua Yu, "whose shape is like a jade with tattoos, good at smiling, and lying down when seeing people" of the secluded.
They are not only powerful and tyrannical, but also have their own magical powers.
These monsters were menacing and fearless of death, which put a lot of pressure on Shi Huang's army.
In fact, the strength of Qin's army is not weak anymore, and it has the power to kill and attack. It is difficult for all schools to get benefits from them.
Even if the road to Mount Tai was really difficult, Shihuang only brought hundreds of elites, but the number of monsters was not many, only a few dozen.It is really surprising that Qin Jun was at a disadvantage.
Shui Huaisang asked in a low voice, "Juzi, are we going to take this opportunity to attack Shihuang?"
Although there are only the two of them, Gong Shuzi is the current Mohist giant, holding a quarter of Jiuding.In other words, there are at most a dozen people who can surpass him in strength in this world. On this chaotic battlefield, he can definitely play a role in stabilizing the country.
Without any hesitation, Gongshuzi shook his head and said, "Help Shi Huang kill monsters."
Shui Huaisang also wondered why his master was so decisive.But as a student, he didn't ask much, and rushed out to fight with the monster.
Next, Qin Yan brought the most exciting fight scene to all the audience, which can be called an absolute visual feast!
On the one hand, Gongshuzi, as the successor of the Mohist school, while manipulating various organs, he spoke out and wrote into paintings, showing all the magic of Huaguo mythology.
On the other hand, these monsters are different. Their shapes combine the traditional Chinese mythology and international aesthetics, so that Chinese and Western audiences can feel the power and terrifying beauty.
The battle scene was quite chaotic, and the first emperor's soldiers and alchemists also showed their terrifying abilities.
Crush the mountains and crack the earth, burn the sky and boil the sea!
The number of monsters is not endless. After the number of these monsters stopped increasing, Shi Huang, who had not made any movement, suddenly recited in a low voice:
"The widow is the master of the human race, how dare the monsters!"
The entire Mount Tai was shrouded in terrifying gravity in an instant, and the luck of the human race was suddenly suppressed, as if in essence, weakening the power of these monsters by more than [-]%, and the next battle would be one-sided.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but during the process of killing the monsters, the Qin Emperor's army never attacked the two strangers, Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang.
After strangling all the surrounding monsters, Shihuang still stood on the white jade high platform used to seal Zen, looked down at the two, and said in a calm voice:
"Gong Shuzi, I didn't expect you to dare to appear here. You are indeed one of the most admired people."
This is a compliment, which represents Qin Shihuang's approval of Gongshuzi.
In fact, Gong Shuzi already had some clarity on his face at this time, and he still asked directly: "Qin Huang, is this your purpose?"
Qin Shihuang said calmly: "Yes."
Not surprised or happy, not in a hurry.The demeanor of an emperor through the ages can be seen at a glance.
Shui Huaisang asked in a low voice, "Ju Zi, what exactly does this mean?"
Gongshuzi revealed all the plans he guessed: "Shui Huaisang, do you know the situation between the heaven and the earth before the establishment of the Xia Dynasty of the human race?"
Shui Huaisang said hesitantly: "I have seen some records in the "Shang Ben Ji"."
Before the establishment of the human dynasty, the masters of this land were not human beings, but the monster races who were born strong, went to heaven and earth, and had various types and their own magical powers.
It's just that the luck of the human race is getting better and better, and they gradually won the control of the Kyushu from the Yaozu.Then King Xia condensed the nine tripods together with the world's demon skeletons and the luck of the human race, and then used them to suppress the world's monster races.
The monster clan who lost the blessing of luck fled from the land of China, and then human beings became the protagonists of history.
But the problem is that there is no permanent country in this world. With the decline and collapse of Xia, Shang, and Zhou, the Jiuding was also scattered between the heaven and the earth.
Afterwards, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period passed, and the Jiuding was even more torn apart. As the most holy teacher said, the Jiuding was lost, which is as magical as this complete Jiuding.
Those monster races who had escaped into the barren mountains and wild mountains and escaped from the mainland of China have made a comeback again. They want to break up the nine tripods and regain the luck of China!
Shihuang, who had been expressionless all this time, finally showed a little appreciation in his eyes, and said, "Gongshuzi, I didn't expect you to be so open-minded as to be able to see through this history."
Gongshuzi was still a little puzzled, and asked: "But this is not right. If you come to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen, you want to inherit the world's nine tripods. Then you can't hunt down hundreds of families and cause too many killings. You will definitely not be able to get the Divine Nine Tripods." approval."
This Jiuding is a spiritual creature of heaven and earth. Although it has no independent consciousness, it will never recognize the devil who kills without blinking an eye.
"The most correct way should be to use a hundred years to slowly make the race stronger, and then defeat the monster race, and Shenzhou Jiuding will naturally recognize you."
However, Qin Shihuang was very disdainful of Gongshuzi's plan. He turned around and looked up at the sky, looking directly at the scorching sun, and said loudly:
"I don't have so much time to spend with these ghosts and monsters. Since I can unify the world, I can naturally clear the universe. I am not afraid of the human race, and I am even more fearless of the monster race!"
"It doesn't matter if he doesn't want the Nine Tripod Emperor of Xia Shang, this king has his own way to recast the luck, and make this world return to one!"
This is Qin Shihuang's real wish. The reason why he changed the king to the emperor, why didn't he look down on other ancient kings in his heart?
He thinks that he is the emperor through the ages, so naturally he should change the sun and the moon into a new sky.
He couldn't wait to kill all the scholars, just to let their luck dissipate and return to the world, so that he could re-condense the magic weapon of luck like the nine tripods!
Suppress the monster race and protect the human race.
The Qin State will last forever, and the mountains and rivers will last forever!
Both Gongshuzi and Shui Huaisang were shocked by Qin Shihuang's plan, and they thought of the Great Wall and canals they had seen along the way.
This is all playing against the heavens and the earth with the chess of mountains and rivers and the luck of the human race!
It is said that Qin Shihuang was a great success. Qin Shihuang must use thousands of years of merit in one battle, so naturally he will fight with his back.
But Gongshuzi's expression was not at all relaxed, and he continued in a low voice: "So my battle today is still inevitable?"
Suddenly enlightenment arose in his heart, and when Shui Huai Sang was about to speak, Gongshuzi suddenly stretched out his hand and held Shui Huai Sang in place. Completely blocked.
Shui Huai Sang felt endless pain in his heart, and his voice trembled: "Young man, no!"
Gongshuzi didn't explain, and went straight to Shihuang.All the soldiers and alchemists around Qin Shihuang immediately stood ready for fear that Gongshuzi would hurt Shihuang.
On the contrary, Qin Shihuang was not nervous at all, and even had the most obvious smile so far on his face:
"That's right, Gongshuzi, you are qualified to let the widow do it himself."
