Chapter 291
Can the first shot of this year’s Lunar New Year holiday have a good start?

The news about the premiere of "Passengers" has been the headlines in the film and television industry in the past two days.

The space science fiction film directed by Guo Fan of Mengying Media, the second domestic science fiction film director, is also very interesting to people in the industry.

At the premiere of "Passengers", Guo Fan was very excited. His true directorial debut will be unveiled to film critics and audiences today.

This premiere was arranged at Mengying Media’s cinema.

The audience adopts a lottery method and interacts with the lottery on the official Weibo of "Space Passengers" to select the winner.

Nowadays, the promotion of major movies is increasingly relying on the power of online media.

In particular, the new generation of movie-goers spend a long time online, so marketing naturally needs to be focused.

"Director Li, Yifei, please stay a little longer."

Reporters on the red carpet rushed to take photos.

Li Mu and Liu Yifei were also very generous and stayed for a few seconds.

After all, it’s my own movie.

Guo Fan was busy in the hall.

"Brother Xun, is the filming of "Cloud Atlas" finished now?"

Liu Yifei looked at Zhou Xun's radiant red dress and asked sweetly.

"Yifei, your voice is so nice." Zhou Xun couldn't help but feel envious when he heard Liu Yifei's words. This sweet voice was not like her loud voice.

"What role can I play in that role? I came back a few days ago."

Liu Yifei smiled and said: "When it is released, I will go to the cinema to support you."

"Maybe when you watch it, you will be a little disappointed."

Li Mu said hello to Huang Xiaoming, Zhang Yi and Guo Fan, and then went straight forward. He saw a rather familiar figure.

"Hey, isn't this Director Jiang who has been nominated for nine Golden Horse Awards?" Li Mu sat directly next to Jiang Wen.

Liu Yifei lightly covered her mouth and sat on Li Mu's right side.

As for Zhang Yimou, who was next door to Jiang Wen, he couldn't help laughing at this time.

Huang Bo was chatting with Ning Hao and others at this time, and he wanted to laugh a little, but he still endured it.

This time the Golden Horse was quite good, and many local media reports praised this award.

New Express: The Golden Horse Awards have always been 'upsets', and they are always reliable!
Obviously this time the Golden Horse Awards are more popular.

It's a pity that Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" only won two awards for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Cinematography, which is really a bit uncomfortable.

After all, he had vowed to win the Golden Horse Award for Best Director and Best Feature Film.
"I remember that Brother Bo is a member of the jury this time."

Li Mu looked at Huang Bo, smiled and said, Jiang Wen was very arrogant in the past few days and wished he could win all the awards by himself.

Huang Bo knew the voting results: "Director Jiang was just a little bit lucky this time. He was just a little bit short of the two grand prizes."

"You really don't want to open any pot or lift it."

Jiang Wen looked at Li Mu angrily.

"Director Jiang, as the saying goes, what is lost is harvested in the east."

Li Mu paused and said.

"How to say?"

Sure enough, Jiang Wen was very interested. He was very curious about this 'Sangyu'.

"It's almost December, and I can't win the director category, so I can fight for the actor category."

"Can I win an award?"

"How do I know? But if we don't work hard, there won't be this store after passing this village."

Li Mu was good at tempting people. David called him a few days ago and begged Li Mu to call a few more people to go to PR and share some of the pressure. Li Mu directly targeted Jiang Wen.

"Okay, I trust you, we will talk in detail later."

Jiang Wen thought for a while and realized that there was nothing to do now anyway.

"It's done!"

Li Mu secretly smiled and said, David's pressure sharer is here.

Han Sanping, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong and others came later. They were very curious about what this science fiction movie would be like if it was not directed by Li Mu.

In the past, whenever audiences mentioned domestic science fiction films, they would subconsciously resist them.

Before Li Mu, science fiction films in the "Chinese film field" had always been a taboo. Either the special effects were too bad or the plot was too embarrassing. Especially after comparing with overseas science fiction films, I didn't want to watch domestically released science fiction films.

Since Li Mu improved this view, Guo Fan is the second science fiction film director. In fact, if it weren't for Mengying's investment, people might still not be optimistic about it.

There was no preview screening of "Passengers," and no one knew what the quality of the film was.

At this time, Guo Fan had already brought the main creators to the stage.

"First of all, I want to thank Director Li. Being able to shoot "Passengers" fulfilled my dream of becoming a science fiction film director. It is the happiest thing that has happened to me in the past decades.

When he selected me from Nortel to be the assistant director of "The Martian", I was terrified at that time, for fear that I might not do well. "

Then Guo Fan changed the topic: "But for a long time, "The Martian" has not been launched."

"Every night, when the night is deep and the moon is sometimes full and sometimes not, I think that Director Li Mu is sleeping at the moment and has not started filming "The Martian" yet, so I want to call him to wake him up."

"Hahaha" everyone couldn't help but laugh at Guo Fan's words.

Li Mu is also happy, what a good guy, he actually still has this idea
Huang Xiaoming and Zhou Xun also said a few words briefly, and then the lights in the theater were turned off one by one, leaving only the light on the screen.

A spacecraft bound for another planet suitable for human habitation - "Homeland [-]" comes into view.

"This vast starry sky is so beautiful"

"The texture of this spaceship is so strong, and a lot of effort has been put into the special effects."

The beautiful pictures at the beginning gave everyone a rather amazing feeling.

Han Sanping nodded slightly. At least the special effects were very sci-fi. As long as the plot behind it was good, Guo Fan would be confirmed as a sci-fi director.

The spacecraft "Home [-]" unfortunately hit an unknown object.

The systems on the spacecraft were compromised.

The male protagonist only woke up after sleeping for 30 years.

And the ship journey will take another 90 years.
This is a spacecraft that carries 120 passengers from Earth to a new planet and takes [-] years to arrive.

The rest of the passengers and crew were still sleeping, which meant that he was the only one on the entire spacecraft.

He searched the entire spaceship and found only one robot bartender.

For the next year, the hero can only communicate with a robot.

He will die alone here and unknown to anyone.
It wasn't until he saw the heroine in the sleeping cabin that the story really began.

"I wish I had known that the two of us would act."

This romance movie is still very lethal for emotional girls.

"If it were you, and it was me in the dormant cabin, would you do this?"

Liu Yifei couldn't help but asked.

"???"

Damn, isn’t this a proposition?

Li Mu was stunned for a moment. How to answer it felt inappropriate. There was no standard answer to this matter.

"Would you like to be just you and me, light years away?"

Li Mu quickly asked back. At this time, the answer must be answered by the questioner himself.

At this time, Liu Yifei had fallen into the picture given by Li Mu. Light years away, under the vast starry sky, there were only two of her and Li Mu, and her artistic passion was instantly overflowing.

"I am willing."

Liu Yifei immediately looked at Li Mu lovingly and whispered softly.

The movie ended quietly, and thunderous applause erupted in the theater.

The coolest and most luxurious spaceship in history is full of futuristic texture, and the exquisite real-life scenery built with huge investment brings beautiful visual enjoyment to the audience.

The special effects are also remarkable. The vast and boundless universe in the film, the spiral spaceship that subverts imagination and other powerful visual effects scenes are presented through the actors' funny plot. The tense and exciting atmosphere also makes the audience have a strong excitement. empathy.

Although it is not as good as "The Martian", it is good enough for domestic audiences.

"When will other domestic directors be able to make such a science fiction film?"

Han San commented with some emotion after watching it. Let alone "The Martian", he would be satisfied as long as he could make "Passengers".

"Director Han, science fiction will always represent the future. Now the seeds of love for science and courage to imagine are planted in the hearts of children, influencing generations after generations. In the future, there will be no shortage of domestic science fiction films."

Han Sanjing was a little discouraged: "What I want is now."

"Director Han, in fact, in the film and television industry, there are more workers, people who do specific things. We need more lighting, scenery, and costumes who understand science fiction. They are the lower level of the pyramid. Once the foundation is solid, the top can do it. Let a hundred flowers bloom.”

There is a path from top to bottom, but it is also a path from bottom to top. If the industrial foundation is solid, good science fiction films will be born.
Han Sanping was still thinking.

"A good science fiction movie, at least it explains the essence clearly."

Zhang Yimou commented that although he may not be able to make science fiction films, it does not mean that he has poor taste.

"My senior brother has seen through it all. In fact, I have been in contact with many creators recently, including some new directors."

Li Mu thought of some of the applicants in the 3D training program and the people he came into contact with.

"They mentioned a lot of science fiction projects, and I found that there is a common problem - they focus on the 'high concept' of technological attributes, and what excites them is technology.

But they forget that the essence of science fiction movies is that they are actually movies, and the core of movies is emotion.

If these 'high concepts', high technology and emotions are not related, it becomes popular science, so how to combine these things is very important. "

Jiang Wen, Ning Hao and others listened and nodded thoughtfully.

A few people chatted for a while, and the representatives from the theater were also very happy at this time.

They saw that the quality of the movie was very good, which meant that the theater chain could make money.

"Director Li, Director Guo, don't worry about film arrangement, it will definitely be above 30%."

The major managers of the theater chain are shouting that while there are not many competing blockbusters, they should quickly arrange more movies to make more money for their own theater chain.

"Director Han, leave the copying matter to China Film."

Han Sanping said angrily:
"When did China Film Academy go wrong in this matter?"
