Daydream Theatre

"Everyone …" Director Andy's voice was slightly hoarse, and under the light of the holographic projection, we could already see his white hair. This was not out of my expectations, it had already been half a year since the start of the competition, and even though I was feeling depressed and didn't really care about the program team's matters, I still received quite a few calls from Andy, who hoped that we could all go to Eloi Headquarters and ask for the revival program to be broadcast.

According to him, the program team was not completely responsible for such a terrifying incident. Moreover, the 'humiliation' of Eloi Company in the court was completely a problem of the company itself, and it shouldn't be blamed on a small program.

But it seemed to me that he was racing to restart the show not for any money — the average theater Access Rate was not high, and there was no money to be made — but because he really believed in the core of the show, an artistic belief in his work as a director.

Although I had only agreed to be a live broadcaster for the sake of a living wage — after all, one had to be older than the people around me, and perhaps the program team couldn't find anyone else — he had once explained to me with such excitement: "The Daydream Theatre... Do you know why it's called daydreaming, or a theater? "

At that time, I disdainfully said, "Daydream? That's wishful thinking, right? "

"That's right, whimsical fantasies. What do you think this prop can do? "

"It's hard to think of a way to use it."

"Yeah, ordinary people can't figure it out because they didn't encounter any special situations. But as long as someone wants to use a Time Capsule, I know that this is very important to that person. "

"Well, you're right." But I didn't care.

"So the key is that this prop can satisfy a certain kind of arrogance, beauty and of course... It is also an urgent need. "

"That's good. It could be considered a charity." I could only go along with what he said.

"So, isn't it wonderful that we can both help others and know why they use it?" His eyes were filled with enthusiasm.

"Maybe." I also faintly felt that this seemed to be an interesting matter, but I didn't know that I would experience a crazy event like the one that happened with the Ms Mistie.

"The theater, on the other hand, shows that it is a play. Maybe you don't understand the tension involved in the play, but... "

"But if you need tension, you have to make arrangements in advance."

"I don't want to do a completely arranged program. It's pointless. I'd rather make a novel." He fell into deep thought. "We should screen the participants, not everyone. "Perhaps …"

Yes, now the two so-called evaluators are present. Their job was to select the right participants from the application "mail" sent by Snowflake. Their conditions were not fixed, in short, this participant and the events displayed on his program would attract a lot of Access Rate. Of course, as an ambitious director, Andy also requested that the participants' requirements reflect some social issues.

This was what he had said before, "What is the core idea behind the props that the Castari s provide? We all know it's time. Everyone cherishes time and hopes it will stay forever. But some people are special, and they come to the show hoping that their time will go by faster. If it wasn't for such an emotional event, no one would choose to do this, right? "

I remember a joke by the screenwriter: "Maybe I'll choose to use it when I'm close to the deadline and I don't have anything to do with it. That way I'll have more time to use it."

Now, the editor was seated below, his expression grave. He didn't pay much attention to the show at first, but the longer he went on, the more he valued it. He would even come up with some "storyline" suggestions for me, a live broadcast, to make some kind of manpower correction on the show.

However, as for the specific purpose of this program, it was still the best said by the producer, "Our slogan is' Give a little time and you can get anything you want. '" But it doesn't seem to me to be such a good thing. Humans were strange creatures. In the past, everyone gave their time to technology, but afterwards, they were muddle-headed and didn't know what their goals were. Now, everyone is asking technology to ask for their time, as if they suddenly know what they want to do. This is amazing! The program is trying to find a balance between the two -- wasting time and grasping time, just as I'm trying to find a balance between money and art. "

Hehe … I thought back to it as I thought, thinking, this is just like how the Balancing Harmony Bureau has always sought a balance between and Eloi for so many years.

However, Andy quickly brought up the issue of balance and harmony: "Everyone, the reason why we are gathered here today is to tell everyone a piece of good news! That's right, our program, "Daydream Theatre" can now be restarted! "

But he paused for a long time. The low staff members were about to put on a look of celebration, but seeing him so serious, they sat down and said, "However, we should be able to guess that the 'Balanced and Harmonious Bureau'... Let's call it Balance Bureau then. They set a small restriction on us. "

"This must have been Moloch's suggestion." "Balance Bureau is just like a joke, and in these past few years, they have never done anything to restrict Eloi and Moloch. On the contrary, they have always been existing as the lackeys of these two super enterprises."

"You're right, I think these rules were suggested by Moloch as well. After all, our company will not restrict the development of our own programs. But even though no one looks down on Balance Bureau, they have the power to decide in certain aspects, and we cannot go against that. "What's more …" The Director Andy scratched his white hair, "Furthermore, all of us are not at fault. After all, such a big thing has happened."

"If we find out about Ms Mistie's intentions earlier, we'll …" The evaluators looked depressed. "It won't cause any big trouble."

"This isn't an individual's responsibility. If you want to talk about who bears the greatest responsibility, I think it should be Zhang Xuan and I." He looked at the producer, "Now I want to show everyone a film, it's part of Mr Eloi's instructions."

The holographic projection started to work. We saw a kind-looking old man dressed in simple clothing, about seventy years old, but looking from his bright and lively eyes, he looked very robust and robust. This was, of course, our Eloi Company's owner, Mr Eloi. The Mr Eloi was called Eloi, and every generation's boss was called Eloi. This was a tacit agreement of the company, and it was similar to the hostile Moloch Company. Eloi and Moloch had already become symbols, symbolizing wealth, progress and the future.

In the projection, Director Andy and Zhang Xuan suggested a few ideas on how to continue the production of "Daydream Theater", and Andy said: "Mr Eloi, half a year has already passed since the accident, and its impact has already reached its lowest point. If we were to restart the program now, it would be a good time. Moreover, this program has its real meaning and provides a platform for those who are struggling to fulfill their wishes, which is quite valuable.

Zhang Xuan added: "From the last live broadcast, we should not only be able to see negative things, we should also be able to see valuable and positive things — — Our Access Rate has created a new high, and this is enough for us to enter the top three in all the programs under Eloi. So, we're headed in the right direction, and there's just been a bit of an accident. "

The Mr Eloi calmly listened to the two people's narration, and concluded: "That's why, Andy, you have to persuade me from the human point of view of the program, while you, Mr. Zhang Xuan, convinced me from the business point of view?"

Andy and Zhang Xuan looked at each other and laughed, "Therefore, this is indeed an extremely good program."

"Of course I agree with that," the Mr Eloi revealed a worried expression. "I don't object to the program restarting, but you know … Furthermore, this matter will definitely allow Moloch to participate in the examination as well. On this point, our Balance Bureau has always been very balanced, hehe.

"What rules will he join?"

"I can't come to this conclusion now, but what I can predict is that in the future, it will no longer be the people from your program team who will decide who will join the show."

Andy and Zhang Xuan looked at each other: "Who has the final say in this matter?

"At the very least, I will check." "The Mr Eloi revealed a faint smile, but that doesn't mean Moloch would also send someone to supervise them. You know that Balance Bureau is always very balanced, and they are even more nervous about this kind of matter that has already caused a major social impact, haha!"

He suddenly started laughing loudly, obviously "not buying" this "Balance Bureau." However, we must abide by the rules they have set, no? If there's any news, I'll come back for you. I will send the holographic record of our meeting to Andy your mailbox. You can release it to the people in the crew.

I know that Mr Eloi has always been willing to reveal his identity and work hard to create an affinity with me. This is the complete opposite of the Mr Moloch — because no one has ever seen the true face of the Mr Moloch.

"The rules are out now …" "I think that this will not be a good rule," The production team will withdraw from the assessment mission, and the specific evaluation and rights to decide the participants will be grasped by the higher ups of the Eloi and the members of the Balance Bureau. Of course, this member may be affected to a certain extent by Moloch. After all … "As the Mr Eloi had said, balance was a substitute for restriction."

"Very good!" "The director was the first to stand up in support," No matter what balance or constraints, at least our show can continue! "

The two assessment team members were anxious. "So what are we going to do? "Since there are no more assessments."

"If you want to stay on the set, you can do whatever you can to help the show. "However …" Andy's eyes became a little teary, "Of course I thank everyone for their support, but I still have to explain to everyone clearly, maybe we won't do anything that can truly make people excited or moved. Maybe our future participants will be ordinary and won't have any stories to tell. "Perhaps …"

He turned to the director. "Maybe it's just an unknown writer who's been pressed, and we're going to stay with him for months and find out that he's still turned over a piece of trash."

But this time there was no more silence, and everyone laughed heartily. Obviously, everyone still has their faith in the future of the program being restarted. Even though I had always been complaining about the low Access Rate s on this program, resulting in my low economic returns, but seeing that everyone was so united, I also wanted to contribute my own strength.

So I got up and said, "Director, I have an idea. None of them are related to the participants, but they are Access Rate s that can actually improve their programs. "

He seemed to be in disbelief. "What do you mean?"

"If we don't enter the tiger's den, we won't get the tiger." I felt a little impulsive, infected by the atmosphere at that time, but also because after seeing the tragedy of the Ms Mistie, I reconsidered the meaning of my own life. I realized that I had to do something to make my life even more memorable, be it by others or myself.
