"Vincent, not black gears, I need bright, metallic ones, preferably stainless steel."

"Do you need grooves on the sides? Like those gears in Chaplin's Modern Times, I think that would be more artistic."

"No, you don't need any grooves on the sides."

"It's going to look drab, Simon, I'll show you a part and you'll know."

"Of course I do, but the multiple gears are stacked together to create a three-dimensional look so it's not monotonous, like my concept image."

"Simon, your concept art is beautiful, but it's actually very amateurish."

"So I'm the customer and you're the owner, Vincent, and it's up to you to try to realize my vision. Also, when the clock runs, these gears have to all turn, and I need to give people a very intense time. A sense of passing."

"Both options, Simon, if you only need one effect, I can set up another powertrain, it's easy and cheap. If you want this set of gears to blend in with the clock's mechanics Together, it may take two or three months to wait, and it’s expensive.”

"I choose the first one."

"Okay, so, look at your next concept, which is, um, a butterfly?"

At the counter of the Strong Watch Shop, Sandra Bullock was still sitting quietly beside the boy with Simon's backpack in her arms, listening to a series of conversations between him and Vinson Strong, the owner of the watch shop, although There was a smile on his face, but he felt a little distressed that he couldn't speak at all.

At the same time, Sandra looked at the two concept maps Simon showed the owner more than once.

Here are two wall clocks.

The first pendant is composed of many dense gears. Since it is only a light gray pencil drawing, it is really reminiscent of the scene in Chaplin's "Modern Times".

The other clock is a butterfly with very beautiful patterns, and the patterns and textures on the butterfly are cleverly divided into twelve hours. Listening to the conversation between Simon and the shopkeeper, he seems to want to make it golden, it must be more beautiful.

Simon and the shop owner discussed for more than ten minutes, and confirmed in detail the various details of the two wall clocks and the customized price.

Finally, after paying the deposit, Simon left the watch shop with Sandra.

Standing on the side of the street, Sandra watched Simon start looking around again, cheered up, and smiled nonchalantly: "So, where are we going next?"

Although the girl concealed it well, Simon still felt the faint complaint in Sandra's tone, and pointed to a cafe diagonally across the street: "Hey, please have a coffee and talk about the movie by the way."

Some of the dissatisfaction that had just risen in my heart disappeared immediately.

I found myself happily following him across the street, laughing at myself inwardly.

Unpromising guy.

but.

never mind.

Simon locked the bicycle on the side of the street, and the two walked into the cafe together and found a seat to sit down.

After ordering coffee and a plate of muffins, Sandra first asked, "Simon, what are those two wall clocks for?"

Simon explained patiently: “Two shooting props, the gear clock was used for the opening of the movie, and the butterfly clock was the set in Lola’s room. As clocks, they both represent the passage of time, of course. However, the butterfly clock has another meaning. , I hope this film will set the stage for another of my films."

In the original "Lola Run", the two clock props that appeared successively were of European retro type. This is actually in line with the overall style of the old European metropolis in Berlin.

However, Simon is now in Los Angeles.

A new and vibrant city.

Therefore, if you continue to copy the original version, the two European-style retro clocks will appear very incongruous in the new version of the film.

Since the time, location, storyline, etc. of the new version of the film need to be greatly adjusted, Simon is actually remaking another completely different "Lola Run".

In this case, Simon also intends to show some completely different ideas from the original.

In fact, the original version of "Lola Run" did not convey much esoteric philosophical thinking, or even some plausible truths.

Director Tom Tykaway just wanted to show all the ideas he had accumulated as a crazy video game fan through a movie, so he wrote the script quickly, shot it quickly, the male protagonist is his good friend, the female The protagonist is his girlfriend, and most of the other characters are acquaintances. Everyone happily made a very interesting movie.

Now, Simon's purpose for making the film is equally simple and clear.

Number one: Make a cool movie that shows Hollywood what it's capable of.

Second: through the production of this film, re-familiar with the production process of Hollywood movies in the film age.

Third: Promote the concept of the "Butterfly Effect" to pave the way for the release of "The Butterfly Effect" in the future.

Among them, the first two points are the goals that Simon must complete, and the third point is incidental. If it can be achieved, it is naturally better, and it does not matter if it cannot be achieved.

However, although the third goal depends on luck, Simon spared no effort in the details of his performance.

Two wall clocks that have just been customized, the first modern gear wall clock to match the new shooting environment. The second butterfly wall clock clearly implies the concept of 'butterfly effect'.

In fact, Simon intends to set up three "butterfly" images in the film.

If there are only one or two words, it is not easy to leave a deep impression on the audience. If there are more than three, it will appear too flooded. Setting three images is just right.

The waiter brought their coffee, Sandra waited for the other to leave, and asked, "Another movie? Are you planning to make two movies?"

"No," Simon shook his head and said, "The other one is "The Butterfly Effect". You should have heard of the recent events, right? I wrote that script."

Sandra just signed a contract with Jonathan last week. In the following days, the media turmoil surrounding the wma packaging project led to the company's infighting broke out. The girl was a little worried that she would find another agent just after signing the contract. How could it be possible? Don't know about The Butterfly Effect.

However, in any case, she never thought that the script of "Butterfly Effect" would be written by the big boy opposite.

Staring at Simon for a while, Sandra finally let out a low exclamation: "Wow!"

Simon just shrugged and continued: "Most people who have read the script of "The Butterfly Effect" think this name is too unpopular. The plot of "Lola Run" just happens to explain the concept of the 'Butterfly Effect' very vividly. So, Through the explicit prop hint of the butterfly wall clock, I hope that "Lola Run" can let more people know the term 'butterfly effect'."
