Chapter 371: Extreme Brain Burning

Before he could start writing, a brainstorm had already blew up in Lin Han's mind. If this novel could be written as he expected, it would shock the world. This is no joke.

To transform the smart movie Inception, what is needed is a richer plot. After all, the two-hour movie doesn’t tell much about it. The novel needs to be filled with more detailed things and uses intricate narratives to bring readers into the subconscious maze!

As he is about to build a surreal thriller world by himself, Lin Han has now started to set up in another document. This dream world has a wild and imaginative version of the settings. It is precisely because of the constraints of these settings that the overall plot will not become loose.

First of all, the novel will also adopt the sixth-level world setting like in the movie, and the real world is upward in order of dreaming, namely the real world, the first, second, third, and fourth levels of dreams and the final lost domain.

Secondly, according to the analysis of Freud's dream, the essence of dreams is the tortuous expression of subconscious desires, which is disguised by the suppressed subconscious mind, symbolic satisfaction. Therefore, dreams have two parts: "displaying dreams" and "hidden dreams".

Showing dreams refers to the dreams that people truly experience. In the novel, it is the first level of dreams. When everyone dreams at night, they show their dreams.

Hidden dream refers to the true meaning of dreams. The symbolic expression of the suppressed subconscious mind** in dreams. The so-called analysis of a dream is to decipher the hidden dream from the visible dream. The second, third and fourth levels of dreams are classified as Hidden dreams. However, to enter Hidden dreams, you must take medicines. The dosages of medicines are required at different levels of dreams, and the side effects and wake-up methods are also different.

Then the time flow rate of each dream is actually different, which is somewhat similar to some fantasy novels. Lin Han stopped to record these set actions. He touched his chin and recalled it carefully. This is what he wrote in the script and movie. The ten-hour flight in the real world is about one week on the first dream, about six months on the second dream, and about ten years on the third dream. The exciting thing about the movie is that there is not enough time, and the protagonist may be trapped in the dream and spend a full ten years!

Lin Han made up his mind that the Chinese name was finalized as Inception, while the English name was still used as the original one. This was also a tribute and a question-oriented one.

in is a dream inference term in the movie, which refers to implanting a certain idea into the dream of the target character, making him feel that the idea is originally owned by him, and it needs to be completed in at least the third level of the dream.

In fact, if this novel is written, it is like a rigorous paper. The first part is to describe the problem, briefly review the life of the protagonist Cobb, and explain clearly the origins of the matter. The second part is to propose basic principles and basis. That is, the last part of the protagonist Cobb teaching the new dreammaker in Paris is to argue and deduce the results. The protagonist team and his team sneak into the dream of the target character to transform his subconscious.

In two days, Lin Han almost never left home, and he ordered room service for lunch and dinner. He devoted himself to the preparation of Inception. This novel took all his efforts!

When the sound of the memo on the phone rang, Lin Han realized that it had been so long in a blink of an eye that it had already been agreed upon with Leonardo, and he was going to sign the adaptation of the bouquet movie dedicated to Algeron.

Lin Han hurriedly walked into the bathroom with a razor. He shaved off his beard that had appeared in the past few days, then took care of his hair, changed into a suit before walking out the door.

Just during the few days he was busy setting up, Chen Jiaxuan and Leonardo's film production company had fierce negotiations, and the final result was a US$2 million adaptation copyright fee and a global box office dividend of 3!

This novel that is being sold well has a good readership, and with the golden sign Leonardo, it will at least not lose money in the global film market, so Lin Han is sure to make a profit.

Leonardo, who was full of spring breeze, took the initiative to greet Lin Han. He said, "Dear Lin, we both have already drafted the contract content. Do you have any questions?"

"Leo, are you dreaming?" Lin Han suddenly said something from his mouth.

"What?" Leonardo frowned. These were two questions that were completely unrelated. However, he still replied: "Of course I dreamed, but I often forgot it, and I remember it a few times."

Lin Han was addicted to the theory of Inception, and he seemed a little absent-minded, "Oh, have you ever thought about why these dreams appear? Or these dreams are what others want you to know."

"Never, why do you think so? Are the beauty and the little golden man in my dreams all instilled in my mind?" Leonardo couldn't understand the idea of ​​the writer in front of him, and he couldn't wait to say: "Let's go back to the point. Your lawyer has reviewed the contract. If you have no problem, how about we sign the contract now?"

Lin Han shook his head and threw out those strange ideas, then picked up the pen and signed his name casually. He was so refreshed that he was very happy.

After Leonardo closed his contract, he reached out to Lin Han and said, "Happy cooperation, this is a very good novel I have seen. Now I have invited Lang Howard to adapt and direct this movie, and I guess the result will be come up soon."

Lin Han actually didn't know the director in Hollywood, so he didn't know what kind of identity Lang Howard was. He just nodded and said, "It sounds good. Has he ever had any works before?"

"The beautiful heart that swept through the Oscars also has Foster dialogue with Nixon, Da Vinci's code, Apollo 13, etc., a very powerful director."

I am not familiar with the director, but I still have some understanding of the director's works. The lineup of Lang Howard and Leonardo is very good and worth looking forward to!

But Lin Han is not at all concerned about this, so he decided to ask Leonardo for help, "Do you know the best psychologist in the industry? I have some questions and want to ask them about it. I need some advice."

"Where do you think we are? This is Davos, where the elites in the world gather. I bet there must be psychologists here, but I want to see if they will discuss it with you. By the way, you also have a lot of psychological things in the bouquet dedicated to Algernon. Have you studied these?"

"No, thank you for your suggestions. I'll go to the conference organization staff to ask." Lin Han couldn't wait to take the contract and rushed out of the small conference room, leaving Leonardo and the lawyers from both sides in there.

Leonardo looked at the slowly closing door and murmured to himself: "Psychology is so sensible. We should indeed find experts in this field."

Lin Han naturally couldn't hear Leonardo's words. He hurriedly found the staff of the Davos World Economic Forum and asked politely: "Madam, I'm sorry to bother. Is there any psychologist invited to our forum?"

"I remember there were several people, you see, Mr. Rogers over there, the one who was a little bald in a black suit."

Following her gaze, Lin Han found Rogers Maslow. He was reading a document without stopping. Lin Han thanked the staff and took a deep breath and walked over.

"Hello, Mr. Rogers, can I disturb you for a few minutes?"

Taking off the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, Rogers Maslow looked at the young man and the sign hanging on his chest, "What do you want to do?"

Lin Han organized his own language and said, "Actually, I am a science fiction writer. I am now conceiving a novel about human dreams. There are some problems in grasping the theory of dreams, so I would like to ask you."

Rogers Maros became interested in it all at once. Science fiction about dreams is of some significance. At least he hasn't encountered it in these years, so he pointed to the sofa next to him: "Young man, let's sit down and say, you have an hour."

"Freud once said that dreams are the best path to the unconscious. Dreams can satisfy people's wishes. That beautiful dreams are the satisfaction of wishes, but what if dreams are not happy and beautiful things? For example, death, falling off a cliff or watering saplings, etc., are these also the satisfaction of wishes?"

"This dream interpretation theory has caused controversy before, and now a simple consensus has been reached. Here we need to condensate and move the collapsed dream. We have made a lot of rewriting and translation of our wishes, transforming hidden dreams into visible dreams. Therefore, some negative dreams can also satisfy certain people's wishes!"

"I have some so-called subconsciousness, defense, guilt, and dream creation in my novels. Do they have theoretical research or foundations that support these concepts in the fields of psychology or psychoanalysis?"

"According to the psychoanalysis theory, human spiritual activities are divided into three parts, namely consciousness, preconsciousness and subconsciousness. Dreams are the special manifestations of the subconscious mind, which are dialogues with the subconscious mind. As for artificially created dreams, this is somewhat similar to our cutting-edge research. You can look at the basic biological science of psychoanalytic theory, which contains the modern neuropsychological research structure of dreams. It can be said that the specific content of dreams is related to the recent activities of the dreamers, and people can design artificial dreams."

Lin Han listened attentively, and there were not many opportunities to communicate with the master in this way, so he had to hurry up every minute and every second.

Rogers was not satisfied yet, "I remember my students once had an experiment, which was to ask volunteers to wear special video glasses and watch some scenes repeatedly before going to bed, knowing that the sleeping instruments showed that the volunteers had fallen asleep. They waited for a certain period of time before awakening them. At this time, volunteers often reported dreams related to what they saw before going to bed. However, today's technology cannot make people make artificial dreams that are too complicated. It is even more impossible to steal other people's dreams like you said. However, since it is a science fiction novel, there is no problem."
