Coquettish Rebirth

JJ Abrams was taken aback for a moment, he really never thought that the Chinese in front of him would ask such a question!Seriously, is there a boss of a film and television production company who would ask such a question?For the vast majority of film and television company bosses, being able to film the first season well is already a proof that the showrunners are capable, and that can already make the company money!So everyone's focus is how to shoot a good-looking first season, how to make the first season look extremely exciting, and how to make the first season attractive.And season two and season three?How can there be a second and third season if there is no first season?Is this too "high-minded"?And to be honest, the first season was pretty good, and there will be a solution for the second and third seasons!

But he definitely can't answer like that!I am not very well-known now, so if I want to be a drama operator in the industry, I must have an interview, so I can't offend my boss?Generally speaking, if you want to be a series operator in the United States, the film and television company probably has a concept—a concept from the perspective of products, such as the concept of "a plane is missing, and they can't be found in the whole world", Then the drama producers who come to apply for the job will be responsible for thinking about the concept and competing for this outsourcing.After thinking of a general story frame, I submitted the frame to the company. The company thought it was good and hired him. He was looking for a team, and then he entered such a film and television company to become an operator similar to "labor dispatch".

Although Jia Hongjian's question was very strange, he still had to answer it.And to be honest, if you think about it carefully, the question raised by the Chinese boss is really interesting!This little brother saves his brother...it should be very interesting to shoot!Then if the younger brother escaped from prison with his elder brother and a group of criminals in the first season, how can the filming be good in the future?This question is really quite level!After thinking for a while.Abrams replied in this way: "The next step should be a large-scale search by the police and the pursuit of the dark forces who framed my brother. At this time, at the same time, I began to investigate and decipher how my brother was framed... Well, maybe We can be dragged into a big conspiracy? It is the executives in the government who often do evil in our American movies, or the generals in the army who do evil, or some large companies with a monopoly. So all of a sudden, even if the protagonists know that they are They were framed by someone, but they also understood that they had become the enemy of the entire state machine.

From now on, they will face a full-scale hunt, and they don't have much money... Design a plot, saying that the evil forces have captured the brother or his girlfriend or wife, forcing the brother to surrender to the police and accept Death penalty ending.At this time, the elder brother decided to be caught by the police and let the younger brother lurk to find evidence that could prove his innocence and accuse the evil forces behind him!And this time.It is designed that someone, such as a certain senator, got the evidence of his brother's innocence sent anonymously by his brother.Calling a moratorium on the death penalty calls for reopening the investigation.But at this time, the evil forces behind are planning to bribe the death row inmate to directly stab his brother to death in prison, and at the same time, this senator has also encountered a bad situation!The younger brother found that the two brothers were in trouble. He had to not only rescue the elder brother under the identity of himself as a fugitive, but also had to bring the mastermind behind the scenes to justice.Otherwise, there will be no peace for their brothers and those close to them..."

good.From this point of view.This Abrams is really a little better than the original series operator of "Prison Break".At least through a set of actions, the protagonists are in trouble again, and it becomes a thrilling story in which people must be saved within a limited time!And it's a bit like reincarnation!At least compared to the original version of "Prison Break", he ran out of the country, and then was caught by the foreign police and thrown into a foreign prison.Then the elder brother has to save the younger brother from prison or something, isn't it better?At least it makes people feel quite catchy!

This is the second season, and Jia Hongjian actually knows that after the third season, it is estimated that Abrams' level will drop-the story will always be boring, even if the comics like "Dragon Ball" come In the end, it was also the artist Akira Toriyama who couldn't finish it even if he wanted to, and was always asked by the publisher to draw again!At the end of the drawing, it was finally over. Akira Toriyama drew enough directly, and it seems that there has been no long-form manga since then!But Akira Toriyama is good because at least the story is still attractive, and this Abrams, it is estimated that the third season will be less attractive, and the fourth season is estimated that the story will be chaotic, and there will be various flashbacks Talking about the past... It's like "Lost", which just keeps getting more and more chaotic.At the beginning, a group of passengers were flying on a plane. When the plane crashed, a group of people found themselves on a deserted island, and the outside world didn't seem to know that they were still alive.

In order to survive, everyone has to survive in the wilderness like Robinson Robinson, and there are various conflicts among each other, and then gradually discover that there seem to be facilities and people on this deserted island!At this time, it's quite suspenseful to hurry up?In the end, who knew that "Lost" created a big monster on the island in the end, turning a modern suspense film into a science fiction film!This is crazy!Chasing feet is like reading a football novel, which turns into a martial arts novel. Can your sister take it?

But no matter what, there is such an Abrams who is sure to become famous in the future. Although he is still weak now, he must be caught if he can.Therefore, Jia Hongjian decided to "hire" Abrams, but if he was hired, what drama would he be the main creator of? Big Brother or Prison Break?Or even Lost, which Abrams himself will create in the future?Or something else?Which one would work best if he were to do it?

For "Prison Break"?Although the plot that Abrams said before is quite good, it seems that it should be better to shoot Jia Hongjian's famous work to catch up with Jia Hongjian?If he gave "Lost" to others, could he perform better?While Jia Hongjian was thinking, Katzenberg turned to look at him, but didn't speak.Katzenberg knew that it was up to Jia Hongjian whether it would be successful this time, so he couldn't speak if Jia Hongjian didn't speak.

Who knew that Abrams who was being interviewed suddenly said, "Sir, if you don't mind, can I talk about my very promising idea?" Jia Hongjian nodded, and then looked at Abrams. Immediately, Brams' eyes sparkled, and he continued, "My first idea was a bit similar to the movie "Charlie's Angels" that was staged in November last year. But this time we didn't let the three so-called A woman who combines beauty and wisdom becomes a female detective, but combines the three of them into one role, making her a spy, and a double agent! Specifically, she thinks she belongs to a US military. An agent of the Intelligence Bureau, but it is not actually! The secret organization that first recruited her is actually an international criminal organization! It deliberately pretends to be a military organization to lure people into joining, and then makes them do all kinds of illegal things. Then After this woman somehow discovered this secret, she joined the FBI and became an agent without the secret organization knowing, and then she was an undercover agent of the FBI in a criminal organization, and an agent of a criminal organization. This is the double agent!"

kindness?Jia Hongjian immediately understood.This seems to be the content of the American TV series "Double Spy" which began broadcasting in November of this year in 2001!Is this film also made by Abrams?At this time in history, Jia Hongjian did not know about Abrams!It wasn't until "Lost" came out that he finally knew the person in front of him!Does Jia Hongjian want to give Abrams one of the several ideas he came up with, or simply buy Abrams' idea and ask him to make it?

Just when Jia Hongjian was thinking.But listening to this Abrams said again: "I have another great idea. It is to arrange for a plane from Australia to the United States to crash on a tropical island in the Pacific Ocean. There are about [-] or [-] people. After surviving, this group of people need to survive on the island, but also face various mysterious events on the island. Maybe they can all meet polar bears on the tropical island! But outside rescue has never come, we If you want to shoot, it can be dragged on for a long time, because there are so many characters, you can tell the secrets of each character for more than a season, and with various mysterious events, it is absolutely no problem to tell for three or four seasons! I am good at making mysterious events, absolutely all kinds of suspense..."

When Abrams said this, Jia Hongjian was really stunned!This buddy actually came back?This buddy has already thought of the idea of ​​"Lost" now?wipe!This person is really... prolific enough!No wonder others say that he can come up with four ideas in one meal!At this point, it can be said that Jia Hongjian really wanted this buddy to film "Lost"!But at this moment, Katzenberg beside Jia Hongjian couldn't help but speak—"Jj, can you tell me what the idea you were talking about just now? A plane crash? Dozens of people survive? Then The story behind everyone? What’s so interesting about it? What’s the theme? Survival or a plot to crash the plane? What kind of story are you trying to tell?”

After Katzenberg asked, Abrams was embarrassed, "Well... Actually, my story is mainly to force such a group of people out of the modern human world. Under a mysterious environment, Let them re-reflect the process of human evolution. For example, at the beginning, everyone was a loose union, and almost everyone was equal. Doctors were the most important at the beginning, just like the wizards of primitive tribes. Then slowly religious people Or the gradual rise of retired soldiers, police, etc. In terms of overall shooting, it is actually an experiment, that is, it is deliberately made incomprehensible, and people feel that it is incomprehensible but also feels that such a design is very Huge, it must be very meaningful... Then it mainly embodies the characters that are created, making each character lifelike, and putting them into a huge background... Then I think the audience will be attracted by each character, Relatively speaking, the plot itself is not that important, it's just a push..."

Hmm... Although Jia Hongjian didn't understand what he said, he felt like he was very powerful... Brother, just say that you didn't even think about what you were going to shoot!From the perspective of "Lost", Jia Hongjian's rush is because Abrams himself didn't think about what to shoot, otherwise, how could there be so many holes dug that were not filled in the last six seasons?Why are there so many mysteries left unexplained?So if you compare it, you will know that these things are just the pits you dug temporarily, and you don’t even think about how to solve them when digging the pits!So if it’s just the initial stage of creativity, this buddy has thought of a lot of things, is it possible?So let Jia Hongjian go, this buddy filmed "Lost", that is to tell an inexplicable story, but the great thing is that this buddy is really good at telling stories, and the story is very attractive.The audience was fully invested, and in the end, although everyone was very involved, they couldn't figure out what this guy was talking about!
