Chapter 341: A magical remake of "The Shallows", the United States is in despair (33)

After eating the melon, Shen Santong waited for the desired light and continued filming "The Shallows".

The original "The Shallows" tells the story of a young medical student whose mother has just passed away and is suffering a double blow in life and career.

In order to relieve herself from her depression, the heroine hopes to find an idyllic, quiet and peaceful beach that her mother had visited.

She went to a remote coast alone to surf.

The sun, the sand and the waves were all wonderful.

While commemorating the deceased relatives, heal his own inner wounds.

An accident happened.

While the heroine was surfing, she accidentally discovered the corpse of a whale.

This ominous omen soon became a reality, as the smell of the whale's carcass attracted sharks.

The heroine was attacked by a shark and her thigh was injured.

While struggling, she climbed onto a reef that was exposed above the sea.

The heroine was trapped on a reef. Although there was not much distance between her and the shore, a great white shark blocked her way to survival.

As the tide rises, the reef will soon be submerged.

This means that the heroine will have nowhere to escape and will be completely within the shark's attack range.

The heroine relies on her own wisdom and courage to fight against the great white shark, looking for a way to survive and hope of returning to the shore.

"The Shallows" is a purely female-led drama.

There is no love story between men and women, only a family line.

In terms of identity setting, Shen Santong believes that the medical student setting should be a refreshing point for American audiences.

Upper Class.

The heroine of "The Shallows" is a medical student, and the heroine of "Happy Death Day", the original version of "Happy Birthday", is also a medical student.

The box office performance of both films is quite good. They are a small-scale success with a big investment, which shows that the United States buys into this trick.

If you think about it, you will understand.

In his previous life, Runren went to the hospital for treatment. They didn't prescribe any medicine, just a few words of conversation, and the doctor issued a bill of several thousand dollars.

The pharmaceutical group has suffered for a long time.

There is no history of kings, princes, generals or ministers being of different races, and there is also propaganda from media groups.

The thought is not to resist, but to become a member of the pharmaceutical group.

Shen Santong told Fan Bingbing: "Don't be anxious, the key is to show your figure."

In this plot, the heroine finds the beach where her mother was pregnant and starts preparing to surf.

The heroine changed her equipment by changing her slippers and put her laptop back into her bag.

Apply sunscreen and tidy up your surfboard.

The point is to take off the shorts and show the bikini.

The original is magical.

A beautiful girl went abroad alone and found a secluded place.

Aren't you looking for a wheel?
For example, some people from Run go to the United States through South America. Do they really think the whole world is the East?

Lundami was lucky to make it out of the country.

At least he is still alive and has not been controlled by the gang and turned into a tool.

It is much more reasonable in the domestic environment.

It’s understandable for an adult girl to travel alone.

The scene of Fan Bingbing taking off his shirt and shorts was shot repeatedly nine times.

In the drama "The Shallows", the heroine's figure is of utmost importance, but it cannot be filmed too revealingly.

Half-hidden and vague is the most attractive.

Shen Santong is not in a hurry, and there is no rush to make "The Shallows".

Some surfing moves are dangerous and require protection.

The Dong'ao Island scene will take about half a month to shoot, and will be followed by subsequent filming in a huge pool.

The one who really works hard is Fan Bingbing.

The scenes on Dong'ao Island were relatively simple, and were shot in a built pool, spending twelve or thirteen hours shooting in the water every day.

The main plot line is still the same as the original.

It's just different in some settings and backgrounds.

For example, the setting of the heroine, Shen Santong, is set to be a person from Northeast China.

When my parents just got married, they went to travel to Dong'ao Island.

People in Northeast China have a romantic imagination of the warm South.

Growing up, the heroine has heard many stories about Dong'ao Island from her mother.

So when you encounter difficulties in life, come here to relax.

Made a joke.

When the local driver heard the heroine's Northeastern accent, he subconsciously asked why she didn't go to Hainan Island.

Just as Jesus cannot lose Jerusalem, the people of Northeast China cannot lose Hainan Island.

The biggest difference between Shen Santong's version and the original version is the treatment of the female protagonist's motivation.

In the original version, with the care of her father and sister, the heroine came to a remote island in another country.

In fact, there is a tendency towards self-destruction in this.

It’s not that Shen Santong had any stereotypes about Mexico, but she was a single woman who came to a remote place in a strange country.

No matter how you look at it, it seems like a self-destructive move. The original version was shot in 15, and in another year, one ear will be up.

In the American narrative, one ear caused all the problems and was the culprit.

It is the root of America’s problems.

But in fact, one ear is just the result.

In 15, the United States already had big problems.

Four years ago, Occupy Wall Street in 11.

It shows that the American people hope to punish the disorderly financial speculative interest groups.

Including Michelle's husband was able to come up, the slogan is "We can believe in change."

That's the funny thing.

As an old black man who reaches that position, his mentality must be whiter than that of most white people.

However, there are ordinary people who believe in him.

As a result, not only was there no change, there wasn't even any brakes.

The former boss of Goldman Sachs became the head of the Treasury Department.

Take care of yourself.

The 11 Occupy Wall Street movement was simply the result of the public’s utter disappointment.

By 15, this sentiment will inevitably become more serious.

For example, rednecks, under the guidance of the media, began to hate globalization.

It is obvious that they are still plundering countless resources from all over the world. This is a problem caused by internal problems and the lack of a good mechanism, but they start blaming outsiders.

It is inevitable to divert contradictions. If we do not establish external enemies, we will have to "trample the bones of nobles on the streets."

Certainly not.

The white left-wing creators in Hollywood are not as crazy as the rednecks, but they have also reflected more and started to think.

This is essentially a root problem of the United States.

Even without considering the essence, the current situation is despairing.

Internet information technology, computers, and smart phones have indeed brought new things.

But these are just lifestyle changes, not leaps in productivity.

It is impossible to bring in large quantities of cheap goods, so we have to rely on Todai for these.

In order to recover the excessively issued US dollars, the stock prices of Internet and technology companies will inevitably be pushed up.

Behind these high-profile companies, without them, the United States as a whole is in decline.

If we don’t want the US dollar to become worthless paper, we must continue to come up with new concepts to support stock prices.

The same is true for superconductivity, AI, the metaverse, and even digital currency in later generations.

To truly solve the problem, we need a leap in productivity and to put technology into practice.

however.

In 15 years, the United States no longer has any industry.

When technology is put into practice, it will either go to Southeast University or to Deguo.

No matter which one it is, it is unacceptable to the United States.

It doesn't end well for it.

dilemma.

In order to maintain the US dollar, new concepts must be constantly introduced.

And because the industry is not there, new concepts cannot be implemented.

Cannot retreat.

Withdrew, the stock price has no support, and the US dollar is finished.

You can't go in, and you're doomed if you go in.

Without considering the root cause, the economic level alone is already desperate enough.

The problem has arisen, but it cannot be solved, and we can only watch it go into a desperate situation.

Therefore, in "The Shallows", the heroine's character has a tendency to self-destruct.

In the 1975 "Jaws", as a thriller action film, the protagonist's character is not self-destructive.

At that time, the Vietnam War had just ended and the hippie movement was still influential.

Some individuals may be self-destructive, but the American nation as a whole still feels that the Vietnam War was just a small pit.

What young people do is nothing but rebellion.

Forty years later, in 2015, the disaster film "The Shallows" was released.

The consciousness of the Americans, whether rednecks or white leftists, all feel despair.

It’s not that Shen Santong thinks too much, but that movies, as popular art, must take social sentiment into consideration.

The fact that "Jaws" became the first movie to break the 100 million mark in North America had a lot to do with the complete end of the Vietnam War a few months ago.

The success of "Jaws" was a release from the social repression at the time.

The creators of “The Shallows” are members of the society themselves.

What's more, the success of "The Shallows" shows that Americans can resonate with it.

It's not just "The Shallows". The heroine in "Happy Death Day" filmed in 16 also has a bit of "self-destructive" character.

A closer look reveals that American society is indeed in a state of restlessness and despair.
