It's reasonable for me to be a three-time Golden Horse Award-winning director and an all-around

Chapter 270 The Beginning of the Role Competition... International Zhang? No! International Dirty! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The script for "The Witch" is a film project that Lü Rui tailored specifically for Liu Yifei.

This is also his fourth South Korean film translated into Chinese, following "Sunny".

The main reason for choosing this movie is that the female lead's character is very similar to Liu Yifei's personality.

According to Lü Rui, the female protagonist of "The Witch" has two extremely contrasting charms, which is just right to allow Liu Yifei to break the outside world's inherent impression of her as "ethereal".

The first layer is a facade of weakness.

In the early stages, the character is an ordinary girl who was adopted. She has a gentle personality, a pure appearance, and even a fragile and easily broken quality.

This perfectly matches Liu Yifei's naturally cool and aloof temperament and clean-cut features. Without much deliberate acting, the audience can believe that this is the girl who needs to be protected.

The second layer, which is also the core charm of the character, is: explosive contrast!

When her superpowers awaken, the girl instantly transforms from a gentle and harmless girl into a calm and ruthless "witch." The determination in her eyes, the agility in her movements, and even the oppressive aura during battle perfectly showcase a tough side that Liu Yifei has never shown before.

Lu Rui was very clear that Liu Yifei was not only capable of playing fairies; she actually possessed a strong inner resilience, but few roles had allowed her to unleash it.

In fact, she had already shown this side of herself while filming Pacific Rim.

However, because sci-fi blockbusters focus on special effects and visuals, her character's resilience and depth are not quite there yet.

In contrast, the superpowered battle scenes and the plot of outwitting a mysterious organization in "The Witch" not only allowed her to challenge herself with action scenes, but also allowed her to show the character's psychological changes from confusion to awakening through delicate eye acting.

This combination of gentleness and strength perfectly aligns with her inherent personality.

More importantly, the character's growth arc is quite complete.

From an "experimental subject" who escaped from the laboratory, to a girl who longed for an ordinary life, and then to a "warrior" who actively fought against the organization to protect her adoptive parents... the emotional transitions at each stage are clearly visible.

Although Liu Yifei's acting skills are not top-notch, she excels in her strong ability to evoke empathy.

In particular, her interpretation of loneliness and the longing for belonging always resonates with the audience.

In "The Story of a Noble Family", Bai Xiuzhu's transformation from spoiled to forlorn made the audience feel very sorry for her.

In "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," the look of dependence and determination in Wang Yuyan's eyes when she looks at Duan Yu evokes empathy from the audience...

These characteristics are precisely what allow the female protagonist of "The Witch" to shed the label of "superpower tool" and become a character with flesh and blood and warmth.

In fact, at first, Lü Rui planned to use "Lucy" to pave the way for her career.

But after finishing the script, he carefully considered it and ultimately abandoned the idea.

Because the "maturity" that the female lead in "Lucy" needs to show is not only in terms of age, but also in terms of a profound understanding of the essence of life and the laws of the universe.

Especially in the later stages, the almost "divine" state required the actors to support it with highly expressive performances.

Liu Yifei currently lacks depth and breadth in her acting skills, and forcing her to take on such roles may be a thankless task.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Lü Rui finally decided to use "The Witch" as a transition.

This role will allow Liu Yifei to break through her acting style by portraying characters who are both gentle and strong, and to accumulate experience in action scenes and the skills to perform complex roles.

After she hone her acting skills and presence through this film, she can then take on challenging roles like "Lucy," thus establishing a progression from developing characters to peak-level roles.

This plan contains his expectations for her.

He didn't want her to be just a fleeting "fairy," but hoped she could become an actress capable of handling a variety of roles.

This is the joy of nurturing a character!
The darkness of night gradually filled the entire bedroom.

Lu Rui looked down at Liu Yifei, who was fast asleep next to him.

Her hair gently fell across her cheeks, and her breathing was as even as a spring breeze.

He reached out and gently brushed her hair, then leaned down and placed a kiss on her smooth forehead.

This girl must have worked really hard tonight, she's obviously exhausted and sleeping soundly now.

"Good night."

He tightened his arms slightly, holding her even closer in his embrace.

Especially when he recalled her proactive yet shy demeanor just now, he couldn't help but smile.

"Senior..."

In her dazed state, Liu Yifei seemed to hear his voice.

She slightly lifted her eyelids, and her lips twitched unconsciously, as if she wanted to say something.

However, a strong sense of sleepiness soon enveloped her again.

Her breathing became steady again, and she unconsciously snuggled her cheek against Lu Rui's chest, like a kitten seeking warmth, which was extremely cute.

Due to the time difference, it was a bright and sunny morning in China, on the other side of the ocean.

The news that "Reversal of Life" had been officially approved for production caused a huge stir in the film and television industry!

Early in the morning, Zhao Peng's phone kept ringing with calls and text messages, and the names popping up on the screen were all prominent figures in the industry.

From actors' agency owners to film and television investment firm heads, everyone is trying to find out the latest news about projects.

The reason for this great success is that the film's budget was "accidentally" leaked by an insider.

The figure of 3.5 million caused an uproar in the market as soon as it was revealed!

It's worth noting that Feng Xiaogang's recently wrapped film, "Assembly," only cost 1 million yuan.

"The Warlords," a period war film directed by Chen Kexin and featuring three award-winning actors, boasts an investment of 3 million yuan, making it a top-tier production in the Chinese film industry.

Even Stephen Chow's new film "CJ7," which he had been preparing for many years, only cost 1.38 million yuan.

Even the recently acclaimed Sino-foreign co-production "The Forbidden Kingdom," which brought together two kung fu superstars, Li Lianjie and Jackie Chan, along with two top actresses, Zhao Yanzi and Li Bingbing, only had an investment of 5 million RMB.

In comparison, the 3.5 million yuan budget of "Reversal of Life" is an astronomical sum for a purely domestic film!
What caused even more excitement in the industry was that Zhao Peng inadvertently revealed the core information of the project during a media interview:
"This is a romantic fantasy film that involves a large amount of top-notch special effects production, as well as many cross-scene and cross-time shot designs. We are prepared to spend more than 1 million yuan on special effects alone, striving to present the most stunning visual effects..."

As soon as these announcements came out, "Reversal of Life" instantly became a hot commodity in everyone's eyes!
Actors are eager to secure a role, even a minor supporting one, as they see it as an opportunity to elevate their status.

Production teams from all sides are scrambling to get involved, hoping to gain top-notch production experience through this project.

The most aggressive were the major investors!
From traditional film and television companies to some visionary internet investors, and even coal mine owners with deep pockets, they all came knocking on our door.

Some people directly blocked the entrance of Ruishijie with letters of intent to invest, while others contacted Zhao Peng and Hou Hongliang through various connections, offering unlimited investment amounts, just to get a share of the pie...

Even with the high level of enthusiasm from investors, the two dared not easily give in without Lü Rui's instructions.

Zhao Peng, in particular, was very clear about Lü Rui's requirements:

"Projects must maintain their purity and absolutely cannot allow capital to interfere too much with the creative process."

Therefore, faced with a flood of investors, he could only politely decline them one by one, leaving only the reply that "the cooperation plan will be announced after the official launch."

Unlike the mysterious and low-key approach of "Reversal of Life," "My Love from the Star," which was launched at the same time by Ruishijie, quickly started preparation and casting work after its official announcement, a pace so fast that it caught the industry off guard.

The reason for this is that the project is very complete.

However, although the project was originally tailor-made for Fan Bingbing, the audition process still had to be followed.

This is not some kind of formalism, but an ironclad rule that has long been established within the company.

From the very beginning of founding Rui Vision, Lü Rui made it clear that the company would not engage in artist management business, and that the selection of roles for all film and television projects must be based on audition performance as the core standard, with no exceptions for anyone.

Of course, Liu Yifei is not included in this category.

Since Lü Rui's investment in Hongxingwu was already an open secret, their collaboration was more of a private plan and not bound by company rules.

But Fan Bingbing is different.

Her studio is a private investment by Lü Rui and operates independently from Rui Vision; the two have no business affiliation.

If auditions are skipped and casting is done internally, it will not only break the company's rules and regulations and cause dissatisfaction among other actors, but also raise questions about the fairness of the project. In the long run, this could damage the reputation of Ruishijie.

More importantly, Lü Rui has always believed that "customization" does not mean "exemption from inspection".

Even though "My Love from the Star" was tailor-made for Fan Bingbing, the audition allowed her to more accurately grasp the character's state and also allowed the director team to see the difference in her suitability with other candidates.

At the same time, open auditions can discover more potential actors, reserve talent for other roles, and even find more suitable candidates than expected.

This open selection process is responsible not only to the project but also to the actors.

However, this rule has made the role of "Cheon Song-yi" a hot commodity among actresses in the industry, attracting a large number of prying eyes.

For example, Huo Siyan was one of the first people to sign up.

After leaving Ruishijie, she sat in her car, clutching the audition application form, and posed a thought-provoking question to her agent: "If I can land this role, will it change the way netizens perceive me?"

Seeing the urgency in her eyes, the agent hesitated before giving a vague answer: "Probably...?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Siyan instinctively clenched her fists.

No one knows better than her how much she needs this role right now.

She has been mired in controversy ever since "Apple" returned from the Berlin Film Festival.

The film was originally scheduled to be released on May 18, but was suddenly pulled from the schedule by the State Administration of Radio and Television.

Following that, footage of her explicit performance in "Apple" was leaked and went viral online!
It's worth noting that she earned the title of "Jade Girl" after starring in "Happy Seven Fairies".

But now, because of her provocative performance in "Apple", netizens have directly changed her "pure girl" label accumulated in her early years into a "sexy woman".

After failing to win the Berlin Film Festival Best Actress nomination, her reputation and career have both declined, and there are still people smearing her behind the scenes, dragging her into a quagmire...

She's filthy now and has to do everything she can to get out, or she's completely doomed!
For her, the drama "My Love from the Star" was undoubtedly a good opportunity to turn her career around.

The character Cheon Song-yi is based on a top female star in the entertainment industry!
Other descriptions, such as beautiful but brainless, or somewhat vain and arrogant, can all be ignored in the face of the label of a top female star.

Actresses playing stars is a piece of cake for them.

More importantly, this kind of role, which naturally generates buzz, can likely boost viewership if played well, allowing her to shed the "sexually promiscuous" label and return to the mainstream spotlight through the positive word-of-mouth surrounding the role.

She's already starting to mentally rehearse audition scenarios, such as how to portray Cheon Song-yi's tsundere nature with just a look, and how to convey the character's domineering nature through her lines, etc...

But at the same time, she will not give up on saving herself.

"Keep an eye on Fan Bingbing. Once you find the right opportunity, make sure you kill her!"

She now strongly suspects that Fan Bingbing is the one targeting her behind the scenes.

After all, the conflict between the two was sown back in Huayi, and it was already irreconcilable.

Now that she's in trouble, Fan Bingbing has no reason to let go of this opportunity to step on her.

However, what she didn't know was that just as she drove away, another red Mercedes-Benz sedan came to a smooth stop right where she had just parked.

Fan Bingbing stepped out of the car wearing sunglasses and a sharp white suit, exuding a powerful aura.

She walked into the building in high heels, handed her resume to the "My Love from the Star" project team, and then walked briskly towards the screenwriting team, her smile barely concealed.

Having just finished filming "The Equation of Love and Death," I already have a potential blockbuster drama waiting for me. This seamless transition feels incredibly satisfying.

As for auditions, she saw them as nothing more than a formality.

She could practically recite the script by heart. During the writing process, Gu Man even added a lot of plot points to highlight her beauty.

For example, the stunning appearance of the female lead on the red carpet, and the proud details of touching up her makeup in front of the mirror during filming, every detail seems to be tailor-made for her.

"Hmph, if I still fail the audition like this, I might as well quit the industry."

Fan Bingbing chuckled inwardly, completely ignoring the other actresses who had signed up.

In her eyes, those people were nothing more than background figures who were just there to accompany her; no one could compare to her in terms of temperament or suitability for the role.

However, Li Xiaolu on the other side clearly did not think so.

Downstairs in the parking area, she was clutching her resume, giving herself a final pep talk: "This role is perfect for me, I have to land it!"

Previously, after failing her audition for "Sunny Sisters," Wang Jinghua had put her head into a frantic filming schedule.

From the heart-wrenching heroine in "Unforgettable Love" to the charming young girl in "Love Is More Than Hate", and then to winning the Best Actress award at the Romanian International Film Festival for "Love Map", she has been honing her acting skills step by step.

This year, she has reached the pinnacle of her acting career!

The broadcast of the inspirational romance drama "Struggle," in which she co-starred with Tong Dawei, Ma Yili, Wen Zhang, and others, solidified her status as a top-tier actress.

She portrayed the feisty yet adorable "Yang Xiaoyun" so vividly that she attracted audiences from four generations—the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s—gaining her unprecedented popularity.

Although the show received mixed reviews, it did not diminish its immense popularity.

To consolidate this momentum, she has recently been looking for high-quality resources.

Just then, "My Love from the Star" was released, which immediately attracted her attention.

Actually, she doesn't have a particularly good eye for choosing projects, but the production company behind this drama, Ruishijie, is a well-known company that produces "high-quality projects".

Based on past experience, targeting Ruishijie is almost a guaranteed ticket to becoming a hit. "Xiaolu, you'll definitely be chosen, but I don't think I have much of a chance..."

At this moment, Li Chen, who was walking beside Li Xiaolu, spoke with a tone full of disappointment, his eyes unconsciously drifting to the ground.

My girlfriend became a top-tier actress in the entertainment industry overnight thanks to her role in "Struggle".

On the other hand, he himself is still a moderately famous third-tier actor.

Previously, Huayi Brothers wanted to cultivate him into a "military specialist" and recommended him to the production teams of "Soldiers Sortie" and "My Chief and My Regiment".

However, he failed to get roles in either of the two dramas and was rejected without even realizing it.

This has directly led to the fact that the gap between him and Li Xiaolu has now widened to an enormous distance.

"Can't you have any ambition? You think it's impossible before you've even tried? You might as well not have signed up at all and just stay home and sleep."

Seeing Li Chen's hopeless and incompetent appearance, Li Xiaolu felt a lot of resentment.

How could I have been so blind to fall for a man like that?
The two met while filming "Thirteen Princesses".

At that time, she was already a Golden Horse Award winner and rose to fame with the TV series "It's All Because of Angels".

Although Li Chen was somewhat famous at the time, he was far less famous than her.

However, he had one advantage: he was good at sweet-talking and knew how to coax people. In addition, the two were filming in the same production crew, and they spent more time together, so they naturally got together.

After they started dating, he spoiled her rotten.

To demonstrate his loyalty, Li Chen even tattooed the character "璐" (Lu) on his thigh.

Li Xiaolu was quite moved at the time, and when they were deeply in love in bed, she vowed that she would marry no one but him.

But now, as she climbs higher and higher, she suddenly feels that Li Chen has become a burden that is holding her back, so she gets angry whenever she has the chance, and is even planning to break up with him.

Bringing him to this audition was meant to be the final test.

If we can really be selected together, then continuing the discussion is not out of the question. We can also do some marketing and hype when the show is released.

But if Li Chen fails to be selected and she is successfully selected, then it's all over for her.

Two people on different paths are destined not to be together.

"Don't be angry, I will try my best..."

Li Chen was rendered speechless by her princess-like temper and could only coax her in a low voice.

They didn't even dare to stop until they were coaxed all the way upstairs to submit their resumes.

It wasn't until the two were about to leave Ruishijie and reached the elevator entrance that Li Chen suddenly shut his mouth the moment the door opened.

Inside the elevator, Fan Bingbing stood with her hands in her pockets, her white suit making her look stunning.

Looking at that fox-like face, and then comparing it to his girlfriend's goosebump-like face, he was instantly captivated and lost his senses.

"Hey? Are you two coming or not?"

Fan Bingbing, who had just come downstairs, was getting a little impatient and called out a reminder.

Li Xiaolu suddenly snapped out of her daze and caught a glimpse of her boyfriend's infatuated expression, which instantly ignited her anger.

"What are you looking at? Come on! Do I have to invite you into the elevator?"

She went in first, and Li Chen belatedly realized what was happening and quickly followed, never daring to lower his head the entire time.

After going downstairs, Fan Bingbing, wearing high heels, swayed her sexy figure as she got into the Mercedes-Benz, put on her sunglasses, and drove away with a flourish.

"You like it? If you like it, then go with them."

Li Xiaolu sneered as she looked at her boyfriend's absent-minded appearance.

"Why would I like her?" Li Chen quickly explained, "I was just wondering if she was also auditioning for 'My Love from the Star.' She's a formidable rival..."

So you mean I'm not as good as her?

Li Chen was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain.

Although that's what he really thought, if he said it out loud, they would break up on the spot!

So he quickly took out the carefully prepared gift from his pocket and continued to coax:
"Lu, don't be angry. How can she compare to you? Look, I even prepared a special gift for you since we're meeting today..."

Li Xiaolu looked down and saw a heart-shaped stone, which was quite unique in its design.

If this had happened a few years ago, she might have been so touched that she would have immediately given him a kiss.

But after filming "Struggle", she finally realized her mistake.

What the hell is this so-called love? In the face of reality, it's all fake; fame and money are the only things that matter!

"Take your broken rock and get as far away from me as possible!"

She pushed Li Chen's hand away, turned around and got into the car, stepped on the gas, and the car sped away.

Li Chen stood there dumbfounded, clutching the heart-shaped stone in his hand, his eyes instantly reddening.

He couldn't understand why they broke up when he was just there for an audition.

So what if I glanced at Fan Bingbing a few more times?

Everyone has a love for beauty, is that wrong?
Besides, doesn't she chat with that guy surnamed Jia on QQ every day?
Moreover, what about all his efforts after breaking up so abruptly? What about the "璐" (Lu) character tattooed on his leg?
A surge of resentment welled up inside him, and he suddenly chased after the departing van, shouting as he ran:

"Xiaolu! Xiaolu, wait for me! How can I live without you! Xiaolu! Xiaolu..."

……

……

After completing post-production and successfully passing MPAA review, the selection of a release date became the core issue for Ruixing Pictures.

In the Hollywood film and television industry, the summer season (May to August) and the holiday season (late November to early January of the following year) are recognized as the two golden periods.

The summer movie season, which coincides with students' summer vacation and numerous public holidays, is the main battleground for commercial blockbusters such as superhero and action-adventure films.

The holiday season will revolve around Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's, featuring not only commercial films but also drama films vying for Oscars.

For romantic fantasy films like "Twilight," the summer season is undoubtedly the best choice.

Inside the conference room of Ruixing Film Studio, Lü Rui was looking at a summer movie release schedule brought by Jason Blum.

Starting May 4th next month, Spider-Man 3 will officially kick off the summer movie season.

As a sequel to the Marvel superhero IP, its box office appeal needs no further explanation.

Then comes Shrek Forever after the 18th, which targets family audiences.

On the 25th, "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" will make its highly anticipated release.

There is no doubt that the huge fan base accumulated by the previous works in the series is enough to make it the top of the box office charts that month.

"May won't work, the competition is too fierce," Lü Rui offered his opinion.

Although "Twilight" has the support of a novel IP, it would be counterproductive to force its way into May with three other films of such high caliber, as it would only have its box office revenue dwindled.

“How about June?” Jason suggested.

Peter, standing next to him, nodded in agreement: "I think June is a good time. Marie Antoinette is in the middle of the month, and Ratatouille is at the end of the month. The overall competition is much less than in May."

Following their words, Lü Rui looked at the June schedule.

Ratatouille is a Pixar animated film, and its audience overlaps somewhat with that of Twilight, but the threat it poses is limited.

Marie Antoinette, on the other hand, was produced by Sony Columbia. Although it had a budget of $4000 million, it was a historical biography, which is significantly different from the romantic fantasy genre.

Looking at July, with two blockbuster movies, "Transformers" and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," released one after the other, it was clearly not a wise choice.

“Okay, let’s go for June then. June 15th, somewhere away from Pirates of the Caribbean.” Lu Rui gave his final decision.

"But Marie Antoinette is also scheduled to be released on June 15th. Will that have an impact?" Jason Brom looked surprised, worried that the two films being released on the same day would cause a scheduling conflict.

"No, it won't." Lü Rui casually made up a reason, "It's a historical biography, while ours is a romantic fantasy. The target audiences are completely different, so there won't be any direct competition."

Of course, there was another reason he didn't mention.

That is, he remembers very clearly that this blockbuster with an investment of up to 4000 million US dollars ended up losing a fortune!
Placing "Twilight" on the same day as it not only allows them to leverage the latter's promotional buzz to attract some attention, but also highlights their own advantages in box office comparisons, making it an ideal choice.

In fact, in the previous life, "Marie Antoinette" should have been released at the end of the year.

However, because Sony Columbia and Lu Rui collaborated on "Pacific Rim," and this film is also expected to be released at the end of the year.

Since they are both films produced by the same company, they naturally cannot have their release dates clash.

Therefore, Sony decided to move the release date of "Marie Antoinette" forward to June.

“Okay.” Jason Brom thought about it and realized it made sense, so he didn’t ask any further questions.

Once the release date is set, the next step is to move forward with the distribution process.

Fortunately, the target audience for this movie is very straightforward: just focus on high school and college students on summer vacation. There's no need for any other attention-grabbing gimmicks.

More importantly, both of the two novels in the Twilight series that have been published so far, Twilight and New Moon, are currently in the top ten of the bestseller list.

Even the third installment, "Eclipse," is in the pre-release phase and is scheduled to be released during the summer vacation.

These are all channels that can generate buzz for a movie; you can simply promote it systematically around these channels.

The meeting ended quickly, and the heads of each department left with clear tasks to begin preparations for the release of the official announcement and related publicity.

Lu Rui left the conference room and returned to his office. He waved to Liu Yifei, who was idly playing on her computer, and said, "Come on, I'll take you to work."

Liu Yifei jumped up from her chair instantly, her eyes sparkling: "You're done with your meeting?"

"Yeah, done."

"Great!"

Liu Yifei nimbly slung her small backpack over her shoulder, picked up her thermos filled with throat-soothing tea, and jogged downstairs behind Lü Rui.

Today, she is going to a professional studio in Santa Monica to complete the English dubbing of "Pacific Rim".

They got into the car and drove straight to their destination.

However, to their utter surprise, when they got off the bus at their destination, the two looked up and saw a very "exciting" scene!
A nearly nude advertisement photo appeared on a screen outside a commercial building.

Upon closer inspection, the protagonist was none other than Zhang Ziyi!
Liu Yifei was stunned: "Why...why doesn't she wear clothes when she shoots commercials?"

In her memory, Zhang Ziyi had always been a pure and innocent girl. How did she suddenly become such a bold and glamorous woman?
Lu Rui snapped out of his daze and led her toward the recording studio, instructing her, "Don't pay any attention to her, just try to avoid contact with her in the future."

Admittedly, Zhang Ziyi has always presented herself as a pure and innocent young woman.

But if you think about it carefully, you'll find that she's not pure at all.

She walked the red carpet in a bellyband on her first trip to the Berlin International Film Festival to grab attention, and she was even more unrestrained at Jackie Chan's birthday party. Now she's starting to gain traffic through nude advertisements...

"International Zhang? It's more accurate to say she's internationally dirty."

Lu Rui secretly grumbled to himself, but didn't forget to continue reminding Liu Yifei to prevent her from being led astray.

Once inside the recording studio, Liu Yifei quickly got into work mode, wearing headphones and repeatedly refining her pronunciation from the script.

Meanwhile, Lü Rui found a quiet corner, opened his laptop, and continued writing the script.

During this period, he was extremely efficient at writing scripts, and has completed three scripts in succession: Sherlock Holmes, Lucy, and Twilight Saga 2.

Even "The Witch" is one-third written, and according to the schedule, it should be finished by the middle of next month.

But at this moment, his fingers, which were typing on the keyboard, stopped on a brand new document.

The document's title boldly proclaims: 【Solar Crisis Universe - Part One】

His ambitions extend far beyond a single film!
When he was filming Pacific Rim, he planned to build a huge science fiction cinematic universe based on the film.

The core event running through all of this is "abnormal solar activity".

He had already laid the groundwork during the filming of "Pacific Rim".

For example, it was specifically mentioned before the main feature that the monsters appeared because solar activity caused anomalies in Earth's magnetic field, which interfered with the stability of the wormhole at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

Taking this opportunity, the pioneering alien civilization detected chaotic signals from Earth and used the opportunity to send out the first batch of monsters through a wormhole to test Earth's defenses.

And the next film he's going to write is the "Symptoms" of the "Solar Crisis":
Due to the abnormally accelerated hydrogen fusion inside the sun, the scientific community speculates that Earth may face a catastrophic catastrophe in the future.

However, at this point, the argument had not yet been fully understood.

However, a few giant companies have keenly sensed the potential crisis and have begun to lay out their plans to control future resources.

They employed a series of unscrupulous tactics, including but not limited to planting suggestions in the subconscious of political figures and scientific leaders around the world through "dream implantation," hindering international energy sharing and joint research, and even attempting to manipulate the timing of a crisis to achieve ulterior motives...
