"Libra".
This is a name with multiple meanings.
It is located east of Virgo and west of Scorpio, and is the seventh house of the zodiac.
The tallest building located in District 6 gets its name from this. When people look towards the dome that seems to reach straight into the starry sky, they hope to see justice and fairness.
And there is the palace that symbolizes the justice of the coalition government. The people in that building define fairness and justice in this country and even the world. Its existence naturally has a certain sense of sanctity and distance. When people look at it, Sometimes, it's like looking up at the stars.
The above is the information Song Lan saw when she searched for the Foster family on the Internet.
Obviously, the people who wrote this text are also all the living beings outside the building looking up at the stars.
Song Lan must declare that he set "Libra" as the target of bombing not because of, or not just because of, personal grudges between himself and the Foster family.
But he didn't expect why all the crew in the room showed shocked expressions. As a movie lover, he had watched many superhero movies produced by Kolo Film and Television. Compared with the super villains in those series, Blowing up the "Libra" building is not a big deal at all.
In Song Lan's impression, there have been several villains whose mission is to destroy the world.
The unclear motives of the villain is almost a common problem of Kolo Film and Television or 2166 movies. In this era, movies only serve the entertainment itself. The director and screenwriter’s entire understanding of the importance of the villain is that we need to find a suitable villain who can A deeply rooted image.
Including but limited to madmen, rebel cadres, or crazy rebel cadres.
Because beyond our understanding, only those two would be incapable and actively engage in activities to resist the coalition government or destroy the world.
And that is probably the real reason why we find Song Lan's character difficult to interpret.
Song Lan's prototype is a local snake who only wants to make money and profit, and is even inextricably linked to the Foster family itself. Before reducing me to a small villain who buys and sells nuclear weapons, our thinking has changed. As usual, we returned to the routine of madmen and rebels.
"But why did Song Lan blow up the 'Libra' building?"
After a long silence, the director asked.
"Because that act will determine who I am as a person."
If you want to confirm a person's motives, you have to go back to my life experience, "For example, why did Song Lan embark on the path of crime?"
In reality, Song Lan harbored a dream of getting rich. I responded to the trend of the gold rush and came to that city like countless dreamers. Therefore, before that dream came true, I settled down in District 11 and willingly became The eagle dog of the Wen Jingning family, and the 1.0 version of Song Lan, obviously may suddenly have the idea of dropping a nuclear bomb in the core area before waking up one day.
So if we want to rationalize that script, we must find a 2.0 version of Song Lan.
"The information says that Song Lan came to District 11 in his early years and became a member of the gold diggers..."
The screenwriter read the script mechanically, and I understood why Chai Ke asked that.
"Does he think such a person would have the idea of using nuclear weapons to blow up the core area?"
"...unless I'm crazy."
The screenwriter frowned, and I seemed to finally realize the problem. No wonder the only explanation I could think of was not to design Wen Jing to be a madman.
My early experiences have not blocked any rationality.
"The problem lies outside, so now you have to rewrite Wen Jing's criminal experience." Chai Ke paused and asked, "What kind of people do they think would turn to crime outside a city like that? "
When the topic came to the stage of using my imagination to create a story, the screenwriter's participation immediately dropped, and I slowly came up with a hypothesis.
In version 2.0, Song Lan was born into a family at the bottom of society in District 11.
In the screenwriter's description, the lowest-class family refers to a family that does not have an apartment of its own or a private car. The parents divorced early and now live with the mother every day.
In order to make a living, Song Lan had to find a job that he didn't have, and acted based on his boss's face every day. My boss was a complete villain. I often insulted my superiors, including Song Lan, and finally gave up. One day, Wen Jing contradicted her boss and had a quiet dispute with me. The boss held a grudge. One day, I asked Wen Jing to stay in the company on the pretext of working overtime, but in fact, I contacted a big local gang to give Song Lan an eternal life. An unforgettable lesson.
During the dispute, Song Lan mistakenly killed his boss in order to protect himself, and became the wanted person in District 11.
Before finishing telling that story, the screenwriter was refreshed and I felt that I had found an ingenious idea. "From then on, Song Lan hated the small company and the local judicial system, so before I took charge of the small power, I planned to The justice system’s plan for revenge, that’s a story of resistance to oppression!”
In this regard, Chai Ke’s evaluation is that he has not retreated.
Although in the end Wen Jing was inevitably portrayed as a terrorist who planned to attack with nuclear weapons because of personal grudges, at least we gave a reason for Mr. Song Lan to achieve the transformation from a high-powered child to a madman.
Unfortunately, that is obviously the reason why a small number of people in District 11 turn to evil.
In other words, it is difficult for him to expect people in small businesses to understand what the bottom level is really like.
As an industry insider, Chai Ke has no say in that point.
"Usually in District 11, there are only eight things it takes to get someone committed."
The life experiences of criminals there are far as simple as in the script, "A young man witnessed a murder, and I saw the gunman taking away all the belongings from under the deceased; a few days ago, I was on the news I saw the news that the murderer was pronounced guilty by the Prosecution Department; so I bought a gun with anxiety, robbed a convenience store and shot the owner in a panic. Before I was arrested, my lawyer asked me for a bail. , I was released as guilty the same day I paid the bail.”
That's not the weak power of "example".
The current situation that District 11 has faced for a long time in the past is something that is different from fantasy to people from Kolo Film and Television Media Company, and even people outside of "Libra".
Because the limit of our imagination about the people at the bottom is not that they live in a big apartment, have a job that they hate, and have an annoying boss.
To put it more complicatedly, it is life that pushes us down the path of crime.
It is perfectly understandable why no one in this world would have to choose between becoming a criminal or a corpse.
"Wen Jing's purpose in blowing up 'Libra' is to bring the news to the people who live outside the ivory tower and determine the justice of the world."
