Science fiction films at home and abroad usually pay attention to the transmission of world views and to some extent do not pay attention to the diversification of characters.In recent years,science fiction has made up for this lack.Villains,as an important driving tool of the plot,sometimes have a stronger presence than the positive characters,especially some villains with full images and perverse personalities.The main human characters are often one-dimensional,either science geeks or astronauts,while the villains have a much larger space for imagination,from appearance to thought,which is both strange and mysterious to the audience.This paper takes the TV drama script Please Answer,Fantasy as the main object of analysis.With the help of classic Chinese science fiction films,this paper clarifies the influence of villains in the structure of science fiction films from three aspects: the types of villains,the three-dimensional presentation of the villain image and the role of villains in the script structure.It is hoped that through the multi-angle and multi-side analysis of the science fiction villain,the complete writing of the science fiction script can be successfully achieved,and the role functions can be reasonably allocated and integrated with the plot,so as to avoid the omission of character instrumentalization.In the first part,the author divides the villains in science fiction images into four general types: Cyborg,heterosexual species,interplanetary life and human internal villains.Based on the hard nature of the characters,the author classifies them according to their natural attributes,summarizes the boundaries of each type and summarizes the unified characteristics of the same type,which lays an external foundation for the three-dimensional shaping and plot integration of subsequent characters.It also makes a comparison with the positive image of science fiction under the same type attributes and regulates the character setting of science fiction scripts in the transfer from text writing to image thinking.In the second part,the "three elements" of the de-flattening and three-dimensional shaping of the villain are combined with the events to explain,"three elements" refers to the background situation,new emotions and science fiction crisis.Background situation is the birth background and survival background of characters,and it is the environmental space where characters can grow up.The combination of material environment and spiritual environment contributes to the breeding of characters.Villains in science fiction are unique in geography,physics,biology,politics and other living backgrounds,which to some extent determines the character,mission and path of a certain species of civilization.If the background situation is innate and cannot be changed,then the evolution of emotions caused by different experiences is the key to the separation of characters and individuals,thus achieving the effect of de-homogenization and guiding the value orientation of individuals.The novel emotions established by the sci-fi characters across the species draw the main line of action of the villain,and then awaken the endless sci-fi crisis.Science fiction crisis can be divided into theoretical crisis and social crisis.Typical domestic science fiction narratives usually take one or several theoretical crises as clues.In the course of exploration,social crisis is gradually presented from the theoretical crisis to the plight of civilization,creating a "lost civilization"."Three elements" completely fill the outline of the villain image from internal emotions to external events,and on the basis of the establishment of the type,the villain image becomes full and rounded.In the third part,the constructed individual villains are placed in the overall structure of the science fiction script,acting as balancers,reflectors and pioneers respectively,to integrate the layout of the plot content,consolidate the arc of the positive image,and reflect the appearance of scientific and technological concepts.In the plot,villain characters are bound with clues throughout the whole process of crisis development--confrontation--climax--solution,and the scattered distribution of positive characters promotes the generation of core idea transmission opportunity,and the abuse of scientific and technological means shows the whole picture of civilization concept.In the coordination and adaptation with the plot,each other is inside and outside,and the texture and outline of science fiction images are constructed simultaneously.Events are completed because of characters,and characters grow because of events.They glow and shine in the track of mutual causation,and depict a complete alternate world.It is our narrative purpose to complete the communication of will in symbols.Villains in science fiction should not only be plot boosters,but also catalysts for the emotional connection between characters,so as to enhance the audience’s empathic experience with the narrative strategy of knowing little.
