Bab 2607: Chapter 1827: The Madman's Journey (Part 3)_1
"Doctor Schiller, any changes you'd like to make on your parts of the film?" From the door of the office, Eddie was poking half his body in and waving a projector at Schiller.
While talking to thin air, Schiller turned his head, walked to the door and opened it further to let Eddie in. He glanced at the projector in Eddie's hands and said, "You finished shooting already? Weren't there supposed to be two months left?"
"We cut the original five units of the story down to three, 'Glory of the Northern God', 'Heart of Steel' and 'United Dream'. All of them have been shot and just need to be edited, so we thought we'd let you preview the footage," Eddie responded.
Eddie fiddled with the projection equipment on the table. Soon, the introductory sequence of the documentary began to play, and a steady, intellectual male voice began to narrate.
"The human race has never considered that our flourishing and magnificent planet is but a small leaf in the vast cosmos.
In her embrace, we celebrate, we cry, we've created a long history. Eventually, we decided to leave behind past regrets and look further.
The warriors who dared to climb the mast and hoist the sails for human civilization also have countless stories to tell in the torrent of change of this era...
Now, let us together lift our heads from our regular and common lives. See how the magical people standing on the same land, at the other side of the world, fly at altitudes of thirty thousand feet, and what unknown secrets they bury ninety thousand feet beneath the earth's crust."
The shot of Earth gradually enlarged, with countless lights going on in New York. However, the camera did not linger. It darted between the skyscrapers, then rose to the thin cloud layer in the clear night sky.
"Have you ever thought that the clouds are the gates of the Divine Country and the moon is the lamp of the gods? Above the heaven, we don't know where, are a group of gods long-recorded in human myth...
From the ancient and distant Arctic chants, we heard a solemn sigh for the glory of the Northern God..."
The footage quickly focused on the magnificent and gorgeous Asgard. Even though Schiller had read the script in advance, he was still shocked. The combination of sound, music and images was fantastic and brought more of a visual and auditory shock than any part could individually provide. It was more straightforward than abstract text.
"So, this part is about Thor and Loki, right?" Schiller checked, then asked, "You've obscured my involvement as I asked, right?"
"Don't worry; most of your scenes are rushed past with a side commentary. It's approximately 'Loki went to see a psychologist, then realized something,' that kind of thing."
Relieved, Schiller nodded and said, "I don't need to hide myself exactly, but you have to understand that Nick and my plans are a bit..."
"... Unscrupulous? You actually noticed! Was it really a bit unscrupulous?" Venom roared at Schiller, "I even stayed up for three nights to beautify your shameless plans as something necessary for the whole human race!"
"In fact, we didn't fully succeed in beautifying it." Eddie shook his head, "We can only try to present it as a coincidence, then amplify the goodness of the superheroes. This way, people might think this is karma, rather than that there have been puppet masters pulling the strings behind the curtain all along."
"Even though I think this diminishes your achievements and is unfair to you, maybe normal people really can't accept it..."
Waving his hand, Schiller said, "We don't need anyone's approval. Avoiding misunderstanding while speaking out to the public isn't easy. Being conservative might be a good start."
"The second story is about Iron Man." Eddie spread his hands, "We couldn't completely erase traces of you here, so we got an actor. Tony also used an actor since there were a few fight scenes."
"But he was interviewed on-screen. The biggest problem was to filter out his disparaging comments about the military a little. I knew something was wrong when he came with Pikachu. Fortunately, he got the flavor of the cake the yellow mouse liked wrong, so we finished in two days."
"That's fine, but I think you can move this to the first story. Stark's story inherently generates a lot of buzz. When aired first, it can significantly boost viewership."
"The story about Asgard is more of an official science lesson, and to make people willingly accept education, courting them with a sensational beginning is crucial. The transformation of a playboy would be a good theme," Schiller analyzed.
Eddie silently noted down Schiller's suggestions and then started introducing the third story.
The third story was about Captain America, beginning with a traditional American dream, followed by war trauma and reflections on the changing times.
The conclusion didn't fall into cliché but focused on the juxtaposition and unity of Captain America and Steve's identities.
Although Captain America's special mission, set against the backdrop of a specific historic era, was now over, he realized he could comfortably be Steve Rogers. However, to aid the people who still needed saving, he embarked on the journey of unity once more.
