Chapter 571 228. "When the Orcs Knock on the Door"
"So the story is actually about an orc father and son living in a human city."
"That's pretty much it."
"But why not human beings." Hundreds of years have brought the accumulation of wisdom to Tedder, "... Your doing this is related to their conflict with the orcs?"
"Hmm."< br>
"There is no need... They are not reckless, and the disputes with the orcs will be controlled within a certain range."
"But the conflict between the elves and the orcs is an indisputable fact."
Annan's tone was full of emotion. Seriously: "Whether it is your batch or the next batch, all elves have prejudices, or stereotypes, or all races against orcs..."
This is what Annan is trying to eliminate. thing. In Liberty City, due to self-repression, too few numbers, and no interests involved, humans and other alien races are relatively harmonious, but this is not the case outside. In the future, when there are more alien races, there will always be many disputes.
Annan will not deny that his magic images are to make money, but deep down, he also has reasons to change some of the status quo...
Tedder saw it: "This is a difficult path... Many entities and organizations that are countless times more powerful than you and Free City want to do this, but they have all failed..."
" Because they did something wrong."
The success of Liberty City has built up confidence for Annan - he is no longer the boy who was too shy to speak up when selling firewood with Martin: "Orcs and elves are fighting each other. Blood flowed, humans and dwarves fought to a bloody head, dwarves and orcs fought to a bloody head, elves and dwarves fought to a bloody head... Ignore the disputes and killings between races, and force them to let go of their hatred... …This is not right.”
“Forcing the relatives who have been killed to make peace with the executioner will only allow the conflicts to sink from the surface to the inside. The real way is not to force them to forgive each other, but to let those who have been killed be forced to forgive each other. People who are not infected with hatred come into contact with each other.”
Annan does not know those organizations, and Fast does not want to disclose them, but he can roughly guess what they do.
Hatred is the most vivid and strongest emotion. Anything that stands in its way is crushed into dust.
Tedel no longer dissuades, young people should always do what young people would do and radiate the light of young people.
"So let's talk about "When the Orcs Knock on the Door"?"
"Well, let me think about where we are...why use orcs. Because this kind of family affection is very common for humans. , it's just touching, but not very touching, and it's too common. Shooting it like this will make the audience think 'Oh, this is just me', and then feel the same, think of the burden of life, and no longer be in the mood to appreciate the magical image... An orc will be blurred. This 'sense of immersion' will take the audience away from 'this is my own life' and purely appreciate the story."
Teddel feels that Annan said this because he had the answer first and then deduced it. The sophistry of the process, but there is still no refutation: "If you want contrast and drama, why not change it to an orc father and an elf son?"
Annan thought for a while and rejected Tadel's suggestion.
Taking too big a step will only arouse the rebellious psychology of the elves, and they will suspect "Are you implying that the elves are the children of orcs?" It is better to subtly change the perception of the elves, just like Beauty and the Beast.
It seems that Annan has his own opinion. Tedder stopped trying to persuade him and asked about the plot.
Annan doesn't remember much about the plot of "The Pursuit of Happyness", but it doesn't matter. He can ask the mage to use the memory silk technique on him.
At that time, writing the script only took a few days. Annan now finalized the starring role.
The first is about the casting of the orc father and son.
Annan’s original idea was the old orc. But it looked too old, ravaged by time. And after returning from "Andy", he and the bard had a great time performing "Betal's Redemption" on the beach.
Annan thought of the tribe leader Gal - the scene where it puts on human clothes would be very contrasting, but it is too strong and can only hide in the toilet and sleep in "The Pursuit of Happyness" Smith's image doesn't fit. As for the son... just pick a talented little orc from the Timber Wolf tribe.
"Abby!"
Annan asked his men to call Betty, briefly explaining that he needed a thinner adult orc and a little orc, and asked her to select and teach them to act.
“Part 4?”
“Yeah.”
Betty almost floated out. As soon as she went out, Evelin's figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
According to the past, this news would cause quite a stir, but when the whole of Middle-earth was thrown into chaos by Annan, this news was like a splash of water and disappeared in a flash.
Annan was in no hurry to write a script. The envoy's visit lasted for a week, and there were six days left. It was time for him to get to work - starting with Nana, who seemed to be the easiest to contact.
The "Elf Mentor" said that she was the hardest to win favor among the three elves, but Annan thought it was okay - this lively wood elf with emerald-like long hair and many decorations was the one who originally surrounded her. Loyal movie fans who chatter around me and rush to the theater after coming to Liberty City.
Before taking action, Annan first spoke to Itilia and Olmedo, lest they feel that he was not doing something serious, and then came to the theater.
Walking into the dark theater, "Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was being shown on the screen. The audience was not large, about one-third of the seats were filled.
Annan saw the conspicuous emerald hair and sat next to her.
Nana suddenly looked sideways at the person sitting next to her, and then exclaimed: "Jack came to me!"
"I thought the elves would like "Betal's Redemption."" Annan He said while looking at himself on the screen who was avoiding the troll with Alice.
“I like Annan Potter’s college life that I have never seen before.” Nana, who likes new things, said, “Let’s go out!”
“Don’t you watch it? ?”
“I’ve seen it many times... I don’t need to watch it now that you’re here!”
Saying that, Nana actually took the initiative to pull Annan and ran out.
This is a good development!
Annan thought, but then the situation took a turn for the worse. They came to the park and sat on a bench under the shade of a tree. Nana couldn't wait to ask about interesting things during the creation. Annan was guided by Nana to talk a lot, and she acted as a listener, holding her chin and listening carefully.
When talking about interesting things, such as when the mages always liked to steal the camera during the filming of "The Fall of the Mage Tower", Nana laughed as loudly as a wind chime.
Annan found that Nana liked to talk to him very much, but only related to magic images. When talking about other things, she would return to magic images soon, and the relationship had no substantial progress...
Moreover, this deliberate approach made Annan feel uncomfortable. He finally said in frustration: "Well, it seems that I am not good at this kind of thing at all..."
"Not good at what?"
"It's...to gain the favor of the girls."
