It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?
Chapter 1216 The magnificent epic of destiny "The Wandering Earth"!
Chapter 1216 The magnificent epic of destiny——"The Wandering Earth"!
"The animated film "Spirited Away" voiced by Zhou Dongyu and Jing Boran was officially taken off the screen yesterday, with a cumulative box office of 4.88 million yuan - Tao Piaopiao app."
"Toy Story 4," an imported Hollywood animated film, grossed 2 million RMB at the box office -- China Film Group New Film Group."
"Spider-Man: Far From Home, as of now, the cumulative box office has exceeded 15 billion."
"Drug War 2: The King and the Earth have grossed over 13 billion yuan so far."
"The Lion King, box office: 5.3 million."
"The film script "Solid as a Rock" submitted by Guangguang has been successfully reviewed..."
*****
As time enters late July, the hot summer vacation season has officially begun.
Especially in the movie "Galaxy Tutorial", it is shown to the fullest!
On the 4th day of its release, which was Sunday, the box office remained stable at over 1 million, making many people in the industry very jealous!
Unfortunately, it is difficult to replicate this situation.
There are quite a few movies released at the same time as "Galaxy Cram School", but none of them can compete with it, or even be refreshing or eye-opening.
Especially the animated film called "Future Machine City", which is extremely tragic!
Produced by Alibaba + Wanda, Feng Yuanzheng, Shi Banyu, Tu Songyan, Yang Ting and others participated in the dubbing, but the box office on the first day was only 537 million!
This result almost made Fan Luyuan and Liu Xiaobin drop their jaws!
Alibaba + Wanda!
With such a great lineup of producers, the box office is only this low. Is this normal? Is this fair?
"The dubbing is awkward, the story is nonexistent, the special effects are unremarkable, and the character design is completely broken..."
Chen Fei was talking on and on on the phone, while on the other end of the phone, Liu Xiaobin was wiping his sweat frantically, his entire back was wet.
Originally he thought the film was pretty good, but after listening to Fade Chen's evaluation he discovered that there were so many problems with it!
"I know you want to write about the topic of 'Chinese comics', but that's not how Chinese comics are done." Chen Fei kindly offered a suggestion: "If you really want to do it, don't create anything original. Study the classic mythological characters carefully. They are a treasure trove."
"Okay... I understand."
Liu Xiaobin nodded seriously, but in his heart he no longer had any idea about Chinese comics.
After the box office failure of "City of Tomorrow" on the first day, the company has given up on investing more in the field of animated films.
The production cycle is long, the risk of recovering investment is high...it is far less exciting than a live-action movie.
The performance of "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" is indeed enviable, but it is extremely difficult to replicate!
After chatting for about ten minutes, the two ended the call.
Chen Fei shook his head helplessly, put his phone aside, and continued to look at the cast list of "Assassination of Novelist" sent by Han Jianu.
He is not exaggerating, but currently in China, apart from Feiyue Pictures and the "Boonie Bears" team, other companies have no hope at all.
They haven't even laid a solid foundation for making animated films, but they're dreaming of making a lot of money. This is simply a joke!
The baby has just been born and hasn’t even learned to roll over, but he’s already thinking about standing up and running. Isn’t this a clear sign of failure?
~
"Wan Qian, Peng Yuchang, Lei Jiayin, Yu Hewei, Guo Jingfei, Tong Liya..."
Looking at the names of the actors on the list of "Assassination of Novelist", Chen Fei nodded slightly, and he seemed to agree with them in his heart.
At least they are all good actors, and there are no messy people with bad reputations, which is quite important.
Because if he remembered correctly, the next few years were a period of crazy "collapse" of celebrities and actors!
If a movie cannot be released after it is completed due to the actors’ personal reasons, then it would be fucked!
This will drive the director and the producer crazy!
After reading the list, Chen Fei picked up his phone and sent a message to Han Jianu.
However, after a while, her call came back!
"Brother, what do you think? This casting is pretty good, right? I hope it doesn't disappoint you?"
"Yeah, not bad. I can see that you have worked hard." Chen Fei encouraged Han Jianu with approval.
"Hehe, then it's decided. I'll send a message to the actors and ask them to sign the contract first. The filming will officially start in October."
"it is good."
The preparatory work for the film "Assassination of Novelist" was very complicated, especially the preparation work in the studio, which required a lot of time to complete.
Han Jianu gave herself two months to prepare in order to achieve perfection.
Chen Fei naturally wouldn't rush her.
The filming starts in October and the shooting period is 10 months, so it will be completed by the end of the year, which is just right.
As for the later stage, take your time...
Because in the next year or so, or even in the next two to three years, there will be plenty of free time to work on projects.
*****
Happy twist.
"Director Yang, do you mean that Feiyue Films didn't like my project?"
In Yang Chen's office, Chang Yuan looked unhappy.
He has been preparing for the project "Warm Hug" for a long time, starting in 17.
Now, two years have passed, and he thinks he has refined the script to perfection.
But he never expected that his careful preparations would be cruelly rejected by Feiyue Films!
"That's right." Yang Chen sighed, and said helplessly: "Boss Su told me that there are some problems in this story that cannot be modified, and it does not meet Feiyue Film and Television's "high-quality project" investment goals."
After hearing this, Chang Yuan couldn't say anything else.
He actually knew in his heart that this story was indeed a bit exaggerated, nonsensical, and even childish.
But that's what sells this movie.
Although the audience who likes this style is a minority, China has a population of 14 billion, so even if the number is smaller, it is enough for the film to recoup its investment.
Yang Chen was naturally clear about this.
"It doesn't matter. If Feiyue Films doesn't want to invest in this project, then don't invest. Happy Twist will fully support you. I will find a few more producers and we will hype up this project together. I guarantee we won't lose money."
"Yeah, okay, I'll trouble Director Yang then."
Chang Yuan nodded in response while thinking about how to arrange the roles next.
There is definitely no problem with investing, but he must not lose money! Otherwise, it will be very troublesome for him to attract investment in the future.
"How about asking Shen Teng and Ma Li to make guest appearances?" he muttered to himself.
This idea was like a seed sprouting from the soil, and soon occupied his entire mind!
*****
"Feiyue Films released the latest notice: The fantasy/action/adventure film "Assassination of Novelist" directed by Han Jianu, supervised by Ning Hao, and produced by Chen Fei has completed the audition of all actors.
Wan Qian, Peng Yuchang, Lei Jiayin, Yu Hewei, Guo Jingfei, Tong Liya and others will jointly enter the fantasy world written by novelist Lu Kong and embark on an adventure..."
"'Assassination of Novelist' is adapted from the short story of the same name in Shuang Xuetao's short story collection 'The Aviator'. It tells the story of assassin Guan Ning who was sent by Tu Ling to assassinate novelist Lu Kongwen in order to find his missing daughter."
"The film has an investment of 5 million yuan and is one of Feiyue Films' subsequent major film projects. Please stay tuned!"
On the morning of the 23rd, the press release of "Assassination of Novelist" began to spread on the Internet, attracting a lot of attention.
There are many people in the circle who are envious of this.
Especially Yang Mi!
You know, she also auditioned for this film, so she naturally knows how good this project is.
But unfortunately, she missed the role of "Tu Ling".
"Mimi, don't be too sad. If you missed it, you missed it. At worst, we can find other projects. I don't believe that there is no movie suitable for you..."
Inside the business car, seeing that Yang Mi was in a somewhat depressed mental state, Zeng Jia hurriedly spoke up to persuade her.
"Jia Jia, you don't understand. What really saddens me is not that I missed this role, but that I lost the opportunity to work with Feiyue Films. This is the point."
Yang Mi sighed, feeling very complicated.
Thinking back then, she was considered a half-way person in Feiyue Film and Television, but unexpectedly, she is now drifting further and further away.
And the most important thing is that she found herself getting further and further away from the mainstream film market!
This is not a good thing.
If this continues for a long time, once a barrier is formed, it will be even more difficult for her to find resources in the film industry in the future.
If an actor wants to increase his value and status, having representative works is the most important thing.
Take Liu Yifei for example.
Although she hasn't carried out any large-scale activities for nearly two years due to her marriage and pregnancy.
But even so, as long as she comes out and does some marketing, she can crush the entire network in minutes!
This is the advantage of having a masterpiece. It is so rich that it seems to be inexhaustible. There is no such thing as being out of date, losing popularity, etc.
What's more, she has a good husband!
As long as Chen Fei is there, Liu Yifei has the greatest confidence!
"Boom!"
Yang Mi was feeling sad when she suddenly heard thunderous cheers coming from outside the business car.
He subconsciously turned his head to look out the window, and saw Chen Fei and Liu Yifei holding hands and walking out of a Rolls-Royce on the red carpet area not far away.
Today is the day when "The Wandering Earth" holds its premiere.
It is no exaggeration to say that the people who came to attend the premiere today are almost from all over Asia!
Feiyue Films, together with Xi'an Film Group, Shanghai Film Group, Guangxian Film Group, and Wanda Film Group, spread the premiere invitations everywhere, creating a crazy hype!
It is precisely because of this that in addition to various big stars, a large number of fans gathered at the premiere today.
Look, both sides of the red carpet are now packed with people!
"Sissi, my wife! I love you!"
The voices of female fans and male fans intertwined together, it was so crazy.
"Hello, I love you too!"
Liu Yifei imitated some of the heart-shaped gestures that have been circulating on the Internet recently and responded enthusiastically to the fans on both sides.
"Your traffic and popularity are comparable to the four big and three small ones." Chen Fei teased her cheerfully.
"That's it!" Liu Yifei raised her chin and said proudly, "After two years of silence, I am still a top actress when I return. This is me!"
"Hahahahahaha." Chen Fei laughed, took two quick steps and caught up with Guo Fan and the others.
"Hey, wait for me." Liu Yifei lifted her skirt and was about to chase him.
"Guo Fan and I have something to talk about. Please walk slowly. Don't be in a hurry. Take more pictures. Fans haven't seen you for a long time."
"OK then."
Liu Yifei responded and felt that it made sense.
So she simply walked straight to the edge of the red carpet and took photos with a group of fans holding support materials.
At this time, Chen Fei had already arrived beside Guo Fan.
"Director Chen, good morning..."
After taking a look at Guo Fan's condition, Fade Chen raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong? You seem a little nervous?"
"so far so good……"
Guo Fan grinned foolishly, straightened his back slightly, and pretended to be strong.
But Wu Jing at the side directly exposed his disguise: "I was drinking with him a few days ago, and this guy said that he was so worried that his hair started to fall out. Hahahahaha!"
Guo Fan coughed twice in embarrassment: "Brother Jing, there are so many people here, please give me some face."
Zhao Jinmai, who was standing by, covered his mouth and was already laughing.
"Don't be nervous. Believe in your own strength." Chen Fei patted his shoulder and lowered his voice a little, "Don't forget, our goal is to crush Shanghai Fortress. You have to stand up now!"
"Okay! Stand up!"
Or maybe it’s said that there is motivation only when there is pressure.
When Guo Fan heard the name "Shanghai Fortress" and thought of the shameless behavior of Teng Huatao, he instantly became angry.
Once the anger came up, all the tension and worry were suppressed.
Even when he went on stage to be interviewed by the media, he was still furious!
“Making science fiction movies has always been my dream. I want Chinese science fiction movies to be on par with Hollywood blockbusters, so that all filmmakers around the world can see what Chinese science fiction movies are!
And this movie "The Wandering Earth" is my attempt to showcase Chinese science fiction. I want to let everyone in the world know that Chinese people are not lacking in imagination!
At the same time, I would like to thank Director Chen, who has been silently supporting me behind the scenes and made me crazy for four years! Only then was this movie made perfectly..."
On the stage, Guo Fan spoke emotionally.
And below the stage, there was non-stop applause, and the voices of support were unprecedented!
"If this movie is successful, Chinese hard science fiction will have a real masterpiece."
Zhang Yimou, who was sitting next to Chen Fei, spoke with emotion, his mood was very complicated.
He had this experience.
Just like when "Hero" came out, as a work that pioneered Chinese-language commercial films, his mood at that time was the same as Guo Fan's now, extremely excited!
Chen Fei laughed and looked at the creators who were being interviewed on the stage, and nodded in approval.
"Science and technology are developing, and our national strength is improving. It is time to show our great power style and technological style."
As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something and immediately looked curiously at Zhang Yimou and Wang Changtian who was sitting on the other side.
"By the way, the General Administration announced the latest list of scripts that have been approved a few days ago. Is the script "Solid as a Rock" a collaboration between you guys?"
Hearing this, Zhang Yimou and Wang Changtian looked at each other and nodded at the same time: "Yes!"
Lao Mouzi explained: "This is a new attempt for me. I have never made a hard-core police and gangster movie before. I don't know if I can do it well."
"Sure."
Wang Changtian is quite confident because he is optimistic about this project.
He had previously approached Johnnie To and Jiang Wen separately, but both of them said they were worried that they would not be able to grasp the essence of the film. Only Cheung Yi-mou expressed his desire to give it a try after reading it, so the two sides successfully reached a collaboration.
This is not only Zhang Yimou's first time to helm an anti-corruption and gang-related film, but also the first collaboration between him and Guangguang.
Both parties really want to make this project a success, and are now putting their efforts into the same direction.
After more than 20 minutes, the interview with the main creators of "The Wandering Earth" on stage officially ended.
Soon, as the lights dimmed, the movie screening officially began!
At the beginning of the film, what is presented to the audience is a seemingly ordinary daily drama.
The afternoon sun shines softly on the beach. There are several brightly colored tents on the fine sand, and camping equipment is scattered around.
Wu Jing, Wu Mengda and the young Liu Qi all had relaxed and happy smiles on their faces. They occasionally chatted with each other, and their laughter floated gently in the sea breeze.
It is not difficult to tell from the scene and atmosphere that this is probably a flashback scene or a preliminary explanation of the background of the story.
However, as the narration slowly sounded, the peaceful atmosphere was instantly broken.
In just fifteen seconds, it was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of every audience member hard!
"Sun aging and global climate catastrophe" are just a few simple words that herald the arrival of an unprecedented disaster.
The icebergs melted rapidly in the warm sea water, the sea level rose sharply, and the sea water spread like a ferocious beast, swallowing up large tracts of land.
All creatures are in danger in this catastrophe and on the verge of extinction...
At the same time, plagues, diseases and viruses are also everywhere, like a black haze, sweeping across every corner of the world.
Although there is no hot magma when a volcano erupts, no thrilling feeling when the earth cracks, no raging destruction of tsunamis and tornadoes, no terrifying scene of the sky and the earth changing color, and no sci-fi crisis brought by aliens and laser cannons...
However, this silent yet omnipresent disaster makes people feel fear and despair, as if the world is moving step by step towards the abyss of darkness!
As the lingering sound of the narration gradually faded away, a globe covered in pure white ice and snow, like a huge cold jade, slowly appeared before everyone's eyes.
Looking around, the sky and the earth were covered with ice and snow. The howling wind blew up layers of snow waves, as if time had gone back to the ancient ice age.
Just as the audience was immersed in this shocking scene, the four powerful characters "The Wandering Earth" came into view in an extremely impactful way, announcing the official start of the feature film!
In the theater, discussions were going on:
"This setting is quite interesting. Tens of thousands of engines and steering engines propel the Earth to wander. This is a really creative idea!"
"The visuals are so powerful! Just a few minutes into the show, the sci-fi atmosphere is already there."
"I hope the plot won't be too bad later on. Such a great background has been laid out at the beginning. If the subsequent plot is sluggish, then such a good setting will be wasted."
With discussions arising from time to time, the main storyline of the film has now focused on Liu Qi and Han Duoduo.
The young Liu Qi is a rebellious teenager who has long been dissatisfied and puzzled with his father, an astronaut.
This emotion continued to ferment in his heart, and finally prompted him to secretly escape from the relatively safe underground city with his equally stubborn sister Han Duoduo.
The two came to the surface, and before them was a world completely reshaped by ice and snow. Everything seemed strange and full of danger.
During the escape, Liu Qi drove away his transport truck without telling his grandfather Han Ziang.
"Huh? You're the one driving the forklift, right?"
Zhang Yimou suddenly discovered a small easter egg at this moment. He pointed at the figure driving the forklift on the big screen and looked at Chen Fei curiously.
"Haha, that's right. I went to visit the crew at that time, but I didn't expect to be drafted by that kid Guo Fan."
The transport vehicle was speeding across the ice field when the radio inside the vehicle suddenly sounded:
"The Third District Transportation Committee of the Capital City kindly reminds you that there are thousands of roads, but safety is the most important. If you drive improperly, your loved ones will shed tears..."
As soon as this classic line appeared, laughter broke out in the theater and the tense atmosphere eased a lot.
However, this joyful atmosphere did not last long, because the crisis arrived as expected!
As the Earth is close to Jupiter and is affected by Jupiter's gravity, the Earth's planetary engine will shut down and the Earth will collide with Jupiter within 37 hours.
At this time, the earth was in chaos and there were mountains collapsing and the earth breaking apart!
Taking advantage of the chaos, Liu Qi and others who were arrested for stealing a transport vehicle took the opportunity to escape from prison and tried to take refuge in another underground city via the transport vehicle.
At the same time, the coalition government also issued a supreme mobilization, demanding the mobilization of all forces and resources to restart more than 4,000 engines at all costs to avoid a collision between the ground and the wood.
All of a sudden, the climax of the plot suddenly began!
In order to protect the flint and restart the planetary engine, grandpa unfortunately sacrificed his life...
At this moment, many people in the theater burst into tears!
Just when everyone had finally delivered the flint to the designated location after all the hard work, the Earth missed its last chance to escape. The "Wandering Earth" plan was declared a failure, and all the astronauts on the space station were forced to hibernate.
Seeing this, everyone realized that the earth has been abandoned...
However, Liu Qi and others did not give up!
They decided to modify the engine program and use the Sulawesi III steering engine to ignite Jupiter's atmosphere, using the huge impact force after the explosion to push the Earth away from Jupiter's orbit.
In space, Liu Peiqiang is also supporting this plan!
At the same time, Han Duoduo called for support on the radio, hoping to complete the final ignition procedure together.
Rescue teams from all over the world were inspired by her sincere call and came to support her!
Unfortunately, because the engine jet is still 5,000 kilometers away from Jupiter's atmosphere, the Jupiter atmosphere cannot be successfully ignited.
In space, after Liu Peiqiang learned of this plan, he resolutely decided to drive the space station into the jet stream.
Due to the extended range of the jet stream, Jupiter's atmosphere was instantly ignited and the Earth was successfully pushed away from Jupiter's orbit.
However, Liu Peiqiang died heroically in the process!
"Son, I'm sorry. Dad told you that he is in heaven and you can see him as long as you look up. This time, you will definitely be able to see me!"
The sad mood is spreading, but a grand scene is also happening!
On the big screen, a dazzling ring of flames suddenly bloomed, like the most magnificent fireworks in the universe, and also like the dawn of hope!
The violent explosion generated a powerful reverse thrust, like a pair of invisible but extremely strong giant hands, struggling to pull the Earth out of Jupiter's deadly gravitational abyss.
The earth is shaking and the sky is roaring. It is a contest between life and death!
And the Earth, the blue planet that carries countless lives and civilizations, is struggling but firmly to break free from its shackles amid this thrilling roar, and is slowly moving forward towards a new journey into the vast universe.
Ultimately, humanity’s unyielding struggle in desperate situations successfully created this magnificent epic that changed destiny!
