Fortunately, the panic only lasted a moment.
After a moment, Zong Qi finally found the answer in the actor forum.
"The Village" is actually released!
Not only was it released, it was released without ticket sales. The most important thing is that Zong Qi did not handle the post-editing of this film at all.
Zong Qi is afraid of two things.
First, for movies that have not been handled by him, the actor's appearance will be directly displayed on the big screen. This is directly equivalent to exposing his code name as a worker. In serious cases, organizations such as Ouroboros may notice that something is wrong.
The second is that he used the authority of the director in the film. If the camera was given to him, it would be a matter of minutes and seconds to reveal his trump card.
"Impossible! How could the system release the movie privately without my permission?"
He still remembered what was written in the director's manual, so he opened the horror film director app and frantically searched for message records. Finally, he found a forgotten message record at the end of the original Deserted Village script.
[Whether the director hands it over to the system for editing, yes]
At that time, Zong Qi had just deceived a female ghost and called her "Mom" in front of him, just as he was still in shock. In addition, there were too many pop-up messages, so I didn’t notice this prompt.
So the system defaulted to him choosing not to participate in editing, and also took 10% of his remuneration for editing.
Zong Qi: ""
Now I feel regret, very much regret, the kind of regret that makes my heart hurt so much that I can't breathe.
Even if he had been more careful, he wouldn't have put his face on the big screen for the sake of giving 10% of the salary to the system! ! !
"However, fortunately among misfortunes, systematic editing is still guaranteed by conscience."
Zong Qi browsed through the actor forum and found that there were quite a few actors discussing this movie. It seems that what was discovered an hour or two ago has now developed into a major event for the entire forum.
The first batch of actors who bought tickets to watch the show have already posted their thoughts on the forum.
Some of them published some photos taken.
Fortunately, the faces of these actors have been processed.
For example, Long Aotian, in the movie, he is really just like his ID card. He is an out-and-out old man, completely different from his real appearance.
[I just came here to take a look. This batch of new actors is quite interesting. I didn’t expect that the horror film system is actually a system for making movies. It’s amazing]
I would like to discuss it with the poster, but either I don’t have time to go to the cinema for a while, or I can’t wait for the show at all.
Zong Qi browsed through them one by one. The stone hanging in his heart never fell to the ground, but he still breathed a sigh of relief.
However, it was too early for him to relax.
Professor Yu suddenly sent him a message.
[Tomorrow’s class is at 6 p.m.]
After all, communication on social software is now more convenient, so Zong Qi also added Professor Yu as a friend this morning.
The other party's avatar is very clean, it is a canvas with a pattern of white clouds, and nothing else.
Maybe it’s because I’ve never posted to Moments, so when I click on my personal homepage, it’s clean and there’s no dynamic option at all. It looks like a zombie account.
Zong Qi asked by the way where the class would be held tomorrow, and the reply he got was a movie theater.
Zong Qi: ""
Probably, no, it’s such a coincidence
Unexpectedly, Zong Qi was worried all morning the next day when Yu Chenxue suddenly sent him a message at noon saying that the course might have to be postponed.
It seemed that the other party was in a hurry, but he expressed his apology sincerely and even delivered two movie tickets directly to his door.
"I'm very sorry because it was an unexpected emergency."
The psychology professor stood at the door of his house and looked down at the time on his watch.
I don't know why, but Zong Qi felt that his true mood might not be very beautiful even though the other party still had an elegant smile on his face.
"But recently I heard an interesting rumor. It is said that there is a mysterious horror movie that is not for sale to the public. I am also very interested."
Zong Qi was extremely nervous.
Because when he was interrogating the system, the system told him that if the director went to the cinema to watch it, he would definitely be able to see "The Village".
Also, if a director can't see his finished film, then no one will.
But this does not mean that Zong Qi wants to watch his debut film with Professor Yu! ! ! Especially since it is a debut film with only 55% plot exploration, you can’t help but wonder how good it will be.
His heart jumped to his throat, and he heard Professor Yu say again: "It's a pity that I have no way to go. If Xiaoqi is lucky enough to see it, you must tell me about your movie viewing experience."
Zong Qi nodded quickly, feeling that he had finally come back to his senses after being in a trance that lasted all day.
Okay, okay, as long as Professor Yu doesn't go to the cinema to watch "The Village" with him. If Professor Yu had brought the two of them to watch his embarrassing performance live, Zong Qi swore that he could carve out a Barbie fantasy castle on the cinema floor.
"This is my first time in class and something like this happened."
Yu Chenxue sighed: "Well, I'll inform you tomorrow of the time for make-up lessons. No matter how you paddle, at least according to Professor Cheng's instructions, the first lesson is always necessary."
"There's no need to write down your thoughts after watching it, but I will ask you relevant questions during the make-up class tomorrow."
The psychology professor said with a smile: "You must watch the movie carefully."
After Yu Chenxue left, Zong Qi returned to the door with two tickets in hand, with a tangled expression.
The two tickets showed an unremarkable film title "Chicago". After checking, I found out that it was a Broadway musical adaptation.
It seemed quite ordinary. Normally, it was a movie he would never watch.
Zong Qi thought so.
Xiao Hong was the first to come over: "Ho ho ho!"
Anna translated dutifully: "Xiaohong said she wanted to go to the movies."
Then she rolled her eyes and said, "Mom wants to see it too."
"We really have to make time to go to the cinema and watch that movie."
Zong Qi rubbed his temples.
He was worried about his loss for a whole day, but fortunately the system dealt with the actor's appearance conscientiously. But Zong Qi was still worried. He had to go and watch the movie on his own.
So Zong Qi took his whole family out, old and young.
He only had to watch it with Anna. Araki could share the perspective with Anna, while Xiaohong hid behind him. Only two tickets were used, which saved a lot of money.
When the movie opened, the two sat in rows on their seats, with three cups of Coke and a bucket of popcorn beside them.
Taking advantage of the darkness of the movie theater, Xiaohong would occasionally poke out a ghostly aura and take out some popcorn from Zongqi's back to eat. Her sharp teeth would make a clicking sound, and she would often burst into eerie laughter when seeing familiar scenes inside. .
Everyone in the cinema was frightened by the movie, and only Xiaohong's laughter echoed.
Zong Qi: ""
He was thinking that now that Xiaohong looked like a pretty girl, why was her habit still the same as when she was a female ghost?
After looking behind the scenes, Zong Qi couldn't get up for a long time.
Araki and Xiaohong were happily discussing making movies and becoming a big star in the ghost world in the future, but he was so ashamed that he wanted to die.
There is certainly nothing wrong with the clips produced by the system. The real problem is Zong Qi.
"It was filmed like this and it was put on the big screen. Don't I want to lose face?"
Seeing the director's "Q" characters in the final movie announcement, Zong Qi wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. He even wanted the system to change his name.
"This is all nonsense, it makes no sense, the plot logic is not good, there is no cause and effect, so the scary atmosphere can be boasted, but the problem is that I am not the one who directs the camera crew, it is automatically controlled by the system."
The more Zong Qi thought about it, the more ashamed he became.
I remember when he took the directing class, he watched the teacher's collection of bad movies and vowed that he would never make such nonsense in the future.
The result is now, oh haha.
After the curtain call, the audience in the cinema also stood up.
There were actually not many lucky people selected to watch this movie. None of the seats were full. There were only a few in twos and threes, talking with their legs trembling.
"It doesn't look very good. It's not as amazing as the ones on the Internet."
"That's right, a bad movie is a bad movie. I think there are not many domestic horror movies now. There are no tigers in the mountains, so monkeys are the overlords."
Zong Qi listened to a few words and hurriedly left the cinema with his head lowered.
On the contrary, Araki was particularly unhappy. The next second, the chattering audience member stumbled on the spot, covering his feet and screaming: "An insect bit me! Hiss, it hurts!"
"Who said it doesn't look good? Mom thinks it looks best!"
Araki took the black-haired young man's hand and said, "Mom never thought that her story could be shown on the big screen."
Maybe the audience doesn't think it looks good, but it's really everything to her.
Reading the stories of your own personal experience is different from reading the stories of others.
Zong Qi recalled what was said in the actor forum that all scenes in horror movies did not exist. It is the existence of the director system that makes these come true.
He sighed, suddenly feeling a little more passionate and determined.
I want to film Araki’s story completely.
After returning to the room, Zong Qi continued to study the director system app.
"Theoretically speaking, The Village should be able to make a second film."
He turned over and found that there was indeed a sequel button on the back of the poster in the big script, but it was unfortunately grey.
Maybe a condition needs to be enabled.
Zong Qi thought so and continued to scroll down aimlessly.
Then he turned to the bottom and saw a very strange poster.
This poster is no different from other bleak posters, but if you look closely, you will find that there is still a bit of color on it. However, when Zong Qi pokes it, it will read "Insufficient director staff, will not be released"
strangeness.
Other posters all show "No power source, no unblocking". Why is this poster different?
Out of curiosity, Zong Qi enlarged the poster.
The name of the big script is Pisces Jade Pendant, and the poster shows an ordinary-looking fish-shaped jade pendant.
Zong Qi looked at it, suddenly his eyes widened, and he suddenly sat up from the bed.
He remembered that among the relics left behind by his grandma, there was an identical jade pendant.
