The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games

Chapter 349: 346. Oh, I will never make movies again

  Chapter 349 346. Oh, I will never make movies again

  No one thought that the release of "Wandering Earth" was an unprecedented success, with a double explosion of word-of-mouth and box office.

  Maybe because the Spring Festival this year is really boring, and there are not many movies shown.

  "Love Call Transfer", which is known as "Wandering Earth"'s biggest competitor, will not be released until a week later, which leaves enough time for "Wandering Earth" to ferment.

"The Wandering Earth" has shown extremely high quality to the world. It displays the contents of Daliu's writings that are difficult to achieve with scientific and technological means on the big screen through computer special effects. It also makes the Chinese people deeply feel the "Wandering Earth". Charm.

  This kind of imagination of [fleeing] with our homes on our backs is something that foreigners will never be able to photograph for a lifetime.

   "Wandering Earth", whether it is the storyline, the screen effects, the actors, and the quality of the work, the domestic science fiction blockbusters have reached a new level.

  So it won a double harvest of word of mouth and box office.

  At the end of the first day, the box office of the movie exceeded 50 million.

  This is simply a miracle.

  When Ai Xiaomi heard the news, she burst into tears.

   "Woo woo woo... Boss, our box office broke 50 million on the first day."

  When Ai Xiaomi called Cao Yang, the whole person seemed happy and excited, but cried a lot.

  This is probably the joy of success, right?

   Cao Yang thought, what is this?

  If we don’t break 50 million, we won’t even be able to collect the cost.

  Break over 100 million on the first day in the future is the basis of the movie, okay? If your movie does not break 100 million on the first day, you are ashamed to come out and say it.

However, according to the current situation, it should be a high probability event that the cost cannot be recovered. The film market in 2007 was still a little too small. Even a national-level film like "Wandering Earth" could not recover the cost. the trend of--

  At the end of the movie's release, it would be thank good for it to have 500 million.

  He checked the time, it was 2 o'clock in the morning.

  My god, sister, don’t you sleep?

   "Okay, after hard work, Xiaomi, you can finally get a good night's sleep."

   "Woohoo... I'm so excited, I can't sleep at all..."

   "This..." "You haven't slept in 2 days. Can you go on like this? Go to bed, we have to prepare for the next movie."

   "Huh?" Ai Xiaomi's tears stopped immediately, "Boss, are you the devil? You can't make me happy for a while?"

  ……

  The release of "The Wandering Earth" sparked a sci-fi craze among the people, and the national cohesion was also unprecedentedly skyrocketing.

  China finally has some outstanding works in the field of science fiction movies. How can this not make people proud?

  On Bomi Weibo and Bomibo Questions, "Wandering Earth" was ranked first.

  【How to evaluate the Wandering Earth movie released on February 1, 2007? 】

"How to treat?

  I can only describe it as [the first year of Chinese science fiction movies].

   "Wandering Earth" opened a door for our country to a 3D science fiction masterpiece. Before this, science fiction masterpieces have always been controlled by foreign countries, especially Hollywood.

   Chinese people have long been accustomed to such things as-

  Hero narratives such as Star Wars, Spider-Man, and Tomb Raider.

  And this time, it is obvious that the specifications of "Wandering Earth" are higher.

  No matter from the technical point of view, the quality of the film, or from the script to the concept, the value of this film in the history of film is incalculable.

  I just put a few pictures out, you can feel the infinite shock this work brings you:

  The Wandering Earth project at the beginning:

  Infinite Starry Sky.jpg

  Propellers on Earth:

  Propeller.jpg

   Then there is the vast snow:

  Snow.jpg

  Jupiter.jpg

  Earth tailing.jpg

  International Space Station.jpg

  Great disaster.jpg

  New Era.jpg

  ...Look, this is our country’s sci-fi masterpiece.

  Except for [great], I really can’t find a suitable word to describe it.

   "The Wandering Earth" is undoubtedly a great movie, Bomi is also a great company, I really feel that the country is rising!

  A good novel meets a good director, a good director meets a group of excellent actors, and they meet a boss who is willing to spend money.

  This is really lucky.

  Fortunately for the work.

  Fortunately for the audience.

  Highly recommend everyone to watch this movie, it will be gone if it is late.

  You will not be disappointed. "

  "Start the first year of Chinese science fiction

  The film is adapted from Liu Cixin’s original work "The Wandering Earth". It adopts its basic settings and framework: the catastrophe of the sun, humans try to move the earth, let it "wander" to the South Gate 2 galaxy to survive.

  The story retains a certain amount of the original plot, with a lot of changes and details filling.

  This is not unexpected, the original book is so open, the plot is loose, and it is difficult to copy.

  The movie recreated the story that the earth almost fell into Jupiter during the escape, and a makeshift rescue team finally returned the earth to orbit after making great sacrifices. All the characters are original.

  But it is commendable that the film did not randomly place plots that have nothing to do with the original like some film and television adaptations, so that the people who love the original have a sense of selling dog meat.

  The elements in the main line of the story, such as the life in the dungeon, the trajectory of Jupiter, the role of planetary engines, etc., are all based on the original work, and are basically integrated with the original setting.

  As the [facade] of Chinese science fiction movies, "Wandering Earth" will inevitably be compared with Hollywood science fiction blockbusters.

  To be fair, this time, apart from the slight flaws in the plot, the performance of some characters is not very good, it is almost perfect.

  Especially in the 3D special effects, it has almost completely exploded the current Hollywood blockbusters, and it really makes us feel the rise of domestic movies.

  What's more, this is a 3D movie shot by a real person. The 3D effect is reflected in all aspects, not just subtitles 3D.

  For example, at the beginning, the panoramic view of the earth, that kind of starry sky, the endless loneliness of human beings, through 3D expression, let you really feel the shock.

   Then in the classroom, the holographic projection that Xiaoxing took out, the small glass ball jumped directly in front of you, which was really surprising.

  This level of technology is absolutely world-class, and now many Hollywood companies may not be able to do it.

  The value of the more valuable "Wandering Earth" is that Chinese filmmakers can finally use their own stories, their own values ​​and their own themes to head-on head-to-head at home of Hollywood blockbusters.

   "The Wandering Earth" is a movie made with the emotion and value of Chinese people.

  Because the film has almost always adopted Eastern concepts to resist the narrative mode and emotional logic established by Hollywood.

  From the very beginning, the background of the story of the whole film was that the expanding sun threatened the existence of the earth a few years later, so all mankind decided to take the earth and escape together.

  But this is not so much an escape, as it is more like a "moving house". Compared with the "human migration" and "alien colonization" that can be seen everywhere in Hollywood movies, Eastern culture with a strong land complex is more inclined to "keep the whole earth" rather than just "escape."

  This is not an accidental choice made by Liu Cixin or "The Wandering Earth". In fact, the protection and persistence of "home" has been implemented throughout the film.

  It is this obsession with family and country that makes the Chinese sci-fi stories a lonely and romantic idea full of imaginative "wandering with the earth".

  Although it is called "Wandering", in fact, it has been holding back tightly.

  Although it will take more than two thousand years to travel, we see this as the way back home.

  As the only survivor of the four ancient civilizations of mankind, this inseparable bond with the past, memories and homeland in Chinese civilization has given "Wandering Earth" a unique texture.

On this issue, "The Wandering Earth" represents a very Eastern attitude-not pursuing the improvement of science and technology, not relying on sophisticated instruments, not completely relying on reason, but at the critical moment, delivering the future to hope and trust. .

  And this is where "Wandering Earth" has encountered a lot of criticism, especially at the climax of the film, when Liu Peiqiang decided to use the space station as a booster for spraying flames, it was regarded by many viewers as a "reckless plot lacking logic."

  After all, in the story of the film, the highly intelligent computer has calculated that the probability of detonating Jupiter is zero. Even if the space station is added, it may not be successful.

  The core feature of Liu Cixin’s science fiction works is to combine the ultimate ethereal imagination with the heavy reality, always full of deep concern for human development and future destiny.

   "The Wandering Earth" is a movie about death and hope.

  However, Liu Peiqiang still chose to sacrifice the space station to fight for the tiny possibility of saving the earth. In fact, it was an Eastern perceptual logic that opposed Hollywood's rational logic.

  This is where the film deliberately draws a line from Hollywood genre logic.

  It is not the "reason" they express, but the "emotion" they conveyed that finally completes the reversal of the plot.

  What I want to express in the film is not the redemption like the flash of inspiration in Hollywood movies, but the impulse that is very likely to lead to failure.

This kind of "chaotic" general choice instead connects thousands of heroes and heroes in Chinese history who have sacrificed their lives and become benevolent. From Dian Wei who yells at Zhang Mu to Tan Sitong who smiles to the sky, all of them can be more "rational." People who "do whatever they want" when they choose.

"The Wandering Earth" combines the Eastern feelings of the homeland with the blood and energy of Chinese intellectuals. In the last 30 minutes of the film in Gaochao, there is only one core of the story: If you want to die, you would rather die with the earth than Willing to be the outcast of the universe.

  For "The Wandering Earth", the same challenge as Hollywood's narrative logic is also manifested in the elimination of "heroes". For most of the film, although the story we see has a "protagonist", there is no "hero".

  Across the entire earth, all people are "wandering" together under the leadership of the coalition government. Life and death are in common, and destiny is linked.

  The most typical is the small climax of the film, transporting flint to the equator. According to Hollywood tradition, the protagonist who has overcome many difficulties should become the hero who restarts the engine.

  But no, the restart of the engine was one step faster than the protagonists, and the other rescue teams did not even show their faces.

  The omnipotent hero does not exist in "The Wandering Earth". "This world is not just you as the protagonist", but the entire human race is doing its best.

  The emergence of the concept of "saturation rescue" not only respects the scientific facts themselves, but also shatters the possibility of Hollywood personal heroism.

  Of course, this kind of anti-personal hero posture has not persisted to the end. Liu Peiqiang's self-sacrifice at the end of the film can be seen as the film’s approach to Hollywood logic. Although there are regrets, compared with the film as a whole, its flaws are not concealed. "

   "After watching American blockbusters, you will feel that human beings live entirely by luck.

  After watching "Chinese-style movies" like "The Wandering Earth", you will know that human civilization is worthy of being the strongest representative of the evolution and development of life on earth over billions of years.

From thousands of years ago, even tens of thousands of years, hundreds of millions of years, and even the earliest era, the pioneers of civilization who have been unswervingly laying the foundation for the entire civilization and adding bricks and mortar But the forerunners of the future civilization who unswervingly lay a solid foundation for the entire civilization and contribute to the future, pay tribute to you!

  Many people say that people need to be independent, free, caring, able to think independently, and have dignity.

  So, are those who don’t know where to find a strong person and kneel down and pray for gifts for independence, freedom and dignity, or those who pass the baton step by step forward with independence, freedom and dignity?

  How you choose, you will evaluate "Wandering Earth".

  Because of four words: empathy.

  A tribute to the pioneers of domestic science fiction movies.

   Tribute to Bomi Company.

  A tribute to the Wandering Earth production team. "

  "Although our film review level is not very high, we also want to express it in plain language.

  How to say it, after watching the movie at that time, I especially wanted to make a delicacy to pay tribute.

Space feeding trainer, wandering and eating effortlessly, the flaws of movies will certainly exist, but this time, we are more concerned about the progress of domestic science fiction films. I think it is still flawed. After all, this movie has indeed driven many people's curiosity about science fiction. And love.

  Just like our "space feeding trainer" is not so perfect, but this is also a big step forward for us to science fiction.

  Progress, that is a good thing. I wish the domestic science fiction is getting better and better!

  I also wish us more and more handsome! "

  " "The Wandering Earth" was published in July 2000, when Da Liu had just made his debut for a year.

  Before that, I had read "Whale Song" and "Micro End", "Bring Her Eyes". Among them, "Bring Her Eyes" impressed me the most. As a junior high school student with a mine at home (actually, I have a bookstore at home and I can read books casually). I read a lot of books and have a bit of taste. So "Whale Song" was not rated as top grade by me at the time, but I also think it is better than " The general works in Science Fiction World magazine are more literary. At that time, there were too many authors who had very good ideas in Science Fiction World.

   "Bring Her Eyes" is my favorite "Sci-Fi World" work in 1999, but it still didn't let me remember the author's name-I didn't remember all the names of the authors who were too lazy at the time to be included in the exam.

  I read "Wandering Earth" after the final exam. After reading it, I feel that I don’t care about the final results two days later.

  Compared with Liu's world, the final grade is a greenhouse gas.

In the current edition of "Sci-Fi World", there is a senior high school student Song Jingjing who wrote "From "Whale Song", "Bring Her Eyes" to "Earth Fire", Liu Cixin's articles always keep me in the mood after reading. After a long period of time, I can't help but feel aftertaste and moved."

  At this time, I discovered that "Bring Her Eyes" is also Liu Cixin's work, and suddenly became a fan of the brain. Before that, my favorite writers were Mark Twain, Lu Xun and Zheng Yuanjie. However, influenced by traditional culture, I felt that Teacher Zheng could not be compared with the previous two, but I personally liked it.

  Later, I saw the fans of various authors on the Internet, and realized that the qualified fans were to identify the idol as No.1 in the history of the world.

  In this way, I have never been a big fan of Liu.

  In any case, Da Liu's works can make me feel the pleasure of reading Mark Twain and Lu Xun at the same level, which shocked me, and even suspected that I had a taste problem.

  This matter didn’t make me relieved until Liu became completely popular and became one of the most influential writers in China in the 21st century.

  Back to the main topic: What is the biggest touch for me in "The Wandering Earth"? It is "zero redundancy self-help".

  We usually do things, there is a lot of redundancy in resources and time:

  For example, my summer homework actually took 20 hours to complete, but the summer vacation lasted for fifty days, so I would postpone it until the last two days;

  We don’t study hard all the time. If we really do, the scores of the college entrance examination will be higher (except those who pass the Qingbei exam);

In the entire society, a considerable part of people’s work is to destroy the fruits of other people’s labor, and a considerable number of people’s work is to rob others of the fruits of their labor. Europe and the United States are more diligent and make rapid progress)-This has led to slow progress in our world’s GDP and has not yet solved the poverty problem.

  The reason for everything is because we have time redundancy and resource redundancy. We waste time so that we can still solve the problem of controllable nuclear fusion before fossil energy is exhausted, just like my summer homework.

  So, what if fate only gives us four hundred years?

   Four hundred years, we are required to progress to the point where we can drive the earth out of the solar system. The resources are barely enough or even not enough, which is almost an impossible task.

  Only a task that is almost impossible to complete can be assigned to human beings to allow humans to burst out to their full potential.

  This race suppresses entertainment to the utmost extent. There is no longer a distinction between high and low, regardless of sacrifice, from the highest commander to the ordinary soldiers, all heroes. Self-help with zero redundancy.

  This kind of spirit is only seen by students whose prodigal son turned back one year before the college entrance examination, only by athletes who hit the world championship, and only by the People's Liberation Army who fought against the flood in 1998.

  And Liu Cixin asked the entire mankind to do it in "The Wandering Earth".

  Only the death of the hero makes people sigh, only the failure after hard work makes people regret.

  Even if humans work so hard, the entire Escape Era may still be destroyed at any time, so the whole "Wandering Earth" has an indescribable sense of tragic and heroic.

  In this era, I am really lucky to meet "The Wandering Earth".

  I am really lucky.

  The "Wandering Earth" movie is filled with many details, but it is also faithful to the original work. It captures the core of the original work vividly.

  In this era, I am really lucky to meet "The Wandering Earth". "

"The Wandering Earth" opened [the first year of Chinese science fiction movies] has become a symbol, and it has become a hot topic recently. At the same time, it can be seen from the comments of netizens how much they love this movie, and How much I agree with this movie.

   In addition to the opening of "The Wandering Earth" [the first year of Chinese science fiction movies], there are also many lines in the drama that also caught on fire:

  For example:

  "There are thousands of roads

  Safety first

   Irregular driving

  Two lines of tears for relatives"

   has become the mantra of countless people, especially when friends get together, when everyone rides in the same car, they will use these few words to tease.

  Encountered in traffic jams, traffic accidents, etc...

   will also say these lines at the first time.

  This is enough to show that "Wandering Earth" is really popular.

  ……

  There is also the sentence that appeared at the end of the film——

   "But from now on, the courage and perseverance of mankind will be engraved under the stars forever."

   has also become a hit line.

  The meaning of "Wandering Earth" to the audience is not just the movie itself, it opens up the Chinese people's infinite yearning for the world of science fiction, and also allows Liu to enter the field of vision of countless people.

  The Chinese finally know, oh, it turns out that we actually have such an amazing writer.

   "Wow, our country can also make such a great movie. I heard that at the premiere, the director said that this work was written by a big man named [Liu Cixin].

  Later, I went through his works carefully, and I found that I was deeply shocked.

  There are such excellent science fiction writers in our country. Why are science fiction movies just getting started?

  It’s really a shame, right? "

  "It is also the first time I met Liu Cixin, an amazing science fiction author, through the movie "Wandering Earth". I hope that more such movies will appear in China in the future, so that we can know more outstanding authors.

  Really, we really need this kind of publicity. "

"It can only be said that science fiction novels are really too niche. I have been a fan of Liu for many years. He is very popular in the science fiction world, but the circle is relatively small, and it is only a small group of people. Just know.

  People who know Liu, the whole China estimates whether there are 100,000 people still don’t know.

  So, I really appreciate the "Wandering Earth" movie, which has made a good publicity for these sci-fi works and promoted Liu to the world. "

  This year, Liu Cixin has not been famous because of the three-body system.

  In May 2006, Liu Cixin just published "Three-Body" in the sci-fi world, and it will take some time before "Three-Body" is fully popular.

   "Three Body" won the Hugo Award, and it will not be until 2015.

  "A good science fiction work has a profound impact on future generations. My little daughter is only 7 years old now, but after watching "The Wandering Earth", she has determined to become a scientist.

  Although she still doesn't understand what the definition of a scientist is, she said that she is going to build an engine.

Hahaha……

  Rong's old father laughed a little longer. "

  " "The Wandering Earth" is not just a way to catch up and surpass Hollywood, but a new possibility that is different from the Hollywood model and implants Eastern philosophy and Eastern emotion into it.

  Even though this road is full of stumbling, but we finally took the first step towards the future.

   "Wandering Earth" was the film and television of the novel back then, but as predicted by the "first year of science fiction movie", it is not a successful end, but a brand new beginning.

   Therefore, I should not hesitate to praise its greatness, not because it has been perfected, but because it is bound to be the beginning of something greater. "

  "Don't underestimate any work at any time. "The Wandering Earth" may be planting a tiny seed for the next generation and the future scientific soil.

  Think about it, who didn’t dream of being a scientist as a child?

  We saw how great Einstein was in the textbook, and how quantum mechanics changed the world...

  How does Hawking predict the future of mankind...

  How is the black hole formed?

  What else is 5 light-years away?

   Is human beings the only civilization in the universe?

  These are infinitely fascinating things.

   is also these things, igniting the fire and desire of human exploration.

  The impact of "The Wandering Earth" on the next generation is immeasurable. I hope that more and better movies similar to "The Wandering Earth" will appear, and I also hope that we can give birth to more great scientists in the future.

   "The Wandering Earth" is now available.

  Is the Nobel Prize in Physics still far away?

  Is the Nobel Prize in Chemistry still far away?

  ……"

"In 2078, Stockholm, Sweden, at the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony. Ding Yi, a Chinese physicist, succeeded in manufacturing the first oxygen element refusion reactor because of a breakthrough in the field of heavy element fusion, and won this year's Nobel Prize. Bell Prize in Physics.

  This is the 17th Nobel Prize in Physics that Chinese scientists have won.

  The following is Ding Yi’s acceptance speech: Where is the boundary of science? The boundary of science may be human imagination.

  When I was 10 years old, I walked into the movie theater and watched a science fiction movie, telling the story of a human being built 10,000 refusion engines to propel the earth to wander in the universe.

  At that moment, I discovered that science is extremely romantic.

  I found something fascinated for my whole life.

  The solar system is the birthplace of human beings, but humans cannot stay in their infancy forever.

  Billions of light-years in the universe, there are countless possibilities hidden.

  Advancing, toward the depths of the universe, should be the only way out for human civilization.

  Maybe one day, we can really set out with the earth and wander in the universe. At that time, mankind is the master of our own destiny, and then we dare to talk about romance.

Thank you everyone.

  (*^-^*)

  How do we know how many children who have watched "Wandering Earth" today and planted their awe and exploration of science will be able to push human civilization in the future? "

"The wandering earth appeared in front of me for 128 minutes, tears filled my eyes throughout the whole process. I knew it was the first work of Chinese science fiction movies. I also sketched the magical frozen wonders in my mind, but when the curtain fell, the echo in my mind was still Like Huang Zhongda Lu, for a long time.

  For so many years, the Chinese have also had a science fiction movie, which can make me feel the suffocation and pain in the depths of my soul.

  It is magnificent and magnificent like a fantasy film, but it also possesses the calmness and rationality that a fantasy film cannot.

  I thought this was just a small step in Chinese science fiction movies.

  Unexpectedly, director Ai Xiaomi gave us a fork. "

  ……

   "Hahahaha... Is it okay to split a fork? It's so funny."

  Seeing the comments made by netizens, Cao Yang couldn't help laughing.

  "Boss, don't make fun of me." Ai Xiaomi is in a bad mood today.

  Although today is the celebration banquet of "The Wandering Earth", Ai Xiaomi can not be happy.

  It has been more than a week since the movie was released, and the box office sales only sold 200 million.

  It seems that the overall score is very good. In this era, it is enough to slap the same products. Even "Love Call Transfer" has been compared, only 110 million, but——

  Bomi invested 560 million yuan!

  Not even half of the box office results.

  Not to mention that at that time, most of the box office revenue will be divided by the cinema line.

  Following this momentum, even if the film can be arranged until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the total box office of "Wandering Earth" cannot exceed 1 billion, which is expected to be around 700 million.

  The box office results of the first two weeks determine the general direction, because most of the audience will go to the movies in the first two weeks if they are interested, and there will be very little turnover in the next few weeks.

  No matter how you look at it, this time "The Wandering Earth" is a blood loss.

  Unless a miracle can happen.

  "Boss, do you really think our movie is good?" Ai Xiaomi asked uncomfortably.

   "Of course it's good." Cao Yang said with a smile, "Have you not seen what netizens say about you? You are the first Chinese 3D sci-fi masterpiece."

   "I...then why do we have so little box office?" Ai Xiaomi said.

   "Uh..." Cao Yang held his chest in pain.

  I felt like I was stabbed by someone.

  He also didn't want to mention this matter, and it hurts to mention it.

  It is indeed a bit reckless to make a 3D science fiction film blockbuster in the movie environment of 2007.

  "Wandering Earth" is currently a film purely used to earn reputation and influence.

   "I don't want to make [big production] science fiction movies anymore," Ai Xiaomi said uncomfortably, "It's really too expensive."

  Although it is said that the box office cannot decide everything, the box office cannot explain the poor level of a director.

But……

  If the film company wants to survive, it has to make money.

  Making money is also the greatest affirmation of a director’s ability.

  What is the use of Ai Xiaomi’s reputation?

  I can’t get it back.

   "Come on, don't mention these useless ones, cut the cake first."

  Cao Yang pushes Ai Xiaomi behind his back.

  Everyone was waiting for her in the meeting room.

There is a big 4-layer cake on the table, surrounded by 5 or 60 "Wandering Earth" production staff. Except for some artists who are busy because of things, they are basically all there .

Ai Xiaomi was pushed forward, and the assistant director next to her handed her a knife.

  A wry smile was squeezed out of her face, and then she put a cake-cutting pose to the camera.

  The reporters took photos of this scene.

   Ai Xiaomi cut the first cut, "I wish us a big box office!"

   "Wish us a big box office!" everyone shouted!

  ……

  "Come on, everyone gets closer and laughs! Follow me.
