This year's summer lineup doesn't seem to be as good as last year's, but there are two Marvel movies and "The Martian" directed by Gilbert Jr. himself.

Others include "Transformers 4" which has been transferred to Disney, and "X-Men: Days of Future Past" released by th Century Fox.

It's still "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" released by 2th Century Fox and "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" released by Sony Columbia.

"Godzilla" was released by Warner, which makes people a little strange why this movie was not released by Sony Columbia.

Others include "How to Train Your Dragon 2" and "Edge of Tomorrow" directed by Ridley Scott.

The rest of the films were either not in the summer season or were B-movies and not worth mentioning.

Judging from the movies to be released, movies related to Gilbert Jr. will still be the focus of the summer season.

There is another thing worth mentioning. Both Sony Columbia Pictures' "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" and th Century Fox's "X-Men: Days of Future Past" were forced out by Marvel.

After making a fortune from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel has been committed to promoting the return of Spider-Man and X-Men.

Especially Spider-Man, the return of the popular hero Spider-Man to Marvel is of great significance to the entire Marvel Universe.

But Sony Columbia also knew that Spider-Man was a cash cow, so they would never give up the copyright. The same was true for 20th Century Fox. After losing the support of News Corporation, they desperately needed "X-Men".

On May 2014, 5, "The Martian" officially premiered in Space City Houston.

In view of the two pleasant cooperation experiences with NASA, the NASA Administrator also attended the premiere. At the same time, the crew also invited several active astronauts.

This can also be considered as adding a selling point to the film, which can be used in later promotions.

Two Chinese actors who participated in the film, Chen Baoguo and Chen Shu, were also invited by the crew to come to Houston to attend the premiere.

Of course, another unexpected person was Yang Mi. She came on her own initiative and asked the crew if she could attend the premiere after she arrived in Houston.

The person in charge of publicity and promotion at Disney thought that Gilbert seemed to have interacted with this Chinese actress in China, so he agreed to let her attend the premiere.

This made Yang Mi very happy. She toured the Disney headquarters and took a lot of photos.

Then he boasted on Weibo: "Today's schedule: I was invited to Houston to attend the premiere, and today I will visit Disney in Los Angeles first."

Each of the nine pictures below is beautiful.

The only pity is that the Cantaloupe Studio is not inside the Disney headquarters building, so Yang Mi didn't meet Gilbert. Otherwise, they could have taken a photo together, which would have been even better.

It has to be said that Yang Mi, who is well versed in hype, has indeed attracted more attention than Chen Baoguo and Chen Shu.

Fans of Yang Mi were already celebrating on Weibo. At this time of huge traffic due to the return of the four returning sons, Yang Mi grabbed the most attention.

She can be seen everywhere, on Weibo and Baidu.

I can only say that this woman is really not simple.

After visiting Disney headquarters in Los Angeles, Yang Mi came to Houston to attend the premiere of "The Martian".

To be honest, this was her first time attending a Hollywood blockbuster premiere. In order to make herself more outstanding, her stylist made a very sophisticated design for her look.

Yang Mi has also watched Chen Shu’s interview and knew that Gilbert prefers natural makeup, so she did a more elegant makeup and matched it with a red dress.

The moment she walked onto the red carpet, she felt like a superstar.

But the reporters around were all wondering: "Who is this Asian woman?"

"do not know."

“Should we take a picture?”

"Forget it, what a waste of film."

Fortunately, Yang Mi had her own photographer, so it wasn't too awkward. The photographer took many photos. If she hadn't been urged later, Yang Mi could have shown on the red carpet for an hour. After the photos were taken, a press release was released.

"Yami appeared at the premiere of "The Martian" in a red dress that captivated the audience. Foreigners were stunned. They all exclaimed: "She is so beautiful!"

Or: "Big Mi Mi showed up in Houston, outshining all the other beauties."

There are countless similar press releases hyping things up, but these are what the predecessors left behind. Although it was Yang Mi’s first time doing it, she did a good job.

Little Gilbert was surprised to see Yang Mi coming: "Who invited her?"

"It seems to be the publicity department of Disney?"

The assistant beside her asked, "How about I let her go?"

"Forget it. We are all guests now. There is no need for that."

Little Gilbert waved his hand and looked at Yang Mi who was walking over. He still shook hands with her, took a photo with her, and said a few polite words.

Big Mi Mi was also very happy that she had gotten herself on the front page and took a photo with little Gilbert. Now she would be rich when she returned.

After the premiere red carpet ceremony ended, Yang Mi entered the cinema and sat down. She was a little excited, wondering if she would be able to see her own scenes.

She looked at Chen Shu in the main creative area with some envy.

If only she could sit there, too, and be closer to little Gilbert.

In fact, Yang Mi’s approach is understandable. She never thought that she could make a name for herself in Hollywood like Shu Chang or Bingbing Li.

Her main goal is to convert exports into domestic sales, hoping that through this operation, she can expand her domestic film resources.

Chen Baoguo and Chen Shu were sitting in the main creative area. It was also their first time attending a Hollywood movie premiere, but they didn't have as many complicated ideas as Yang Mi.

Chen Baoguo also told Chen Shu: "I am afraid that I will mess up the performance and bring shame to us Chinese actors."

Chen Shu said: "Director Gilbert Jr. is a very strict director. If he says there is no problem, then there is no problem."

"I hope so!"

Chen Baoguo thought about the scenes he saw when filming "The Martian" and hoped that similar films would be made in Chinese-language films someday.

Although the shoot was short, it gave him a very different experience.

Just as the three Chinese actors were thinking about their own things, "The Martian" kicked off.

The first thing that comes to mind is the vast expanse of deep space. Gilbert Jr. once again used the long-shot technique from "Gravity".

The huge Mars slowly moves into the center of the screen from the right side of the big screen, giving the audience a little visual shock.

Then there are images of the vast Martian landscape, and gradually the voices of the astronauts communicating through their headsets can be heard.

Judging from the picture style, what Gilbert said about learning from Ridley Scott was indeed correct. It feels like "Prometheus".

However, the color tone of "The Martian" is not so cold because of the overall appearance of Mars, with more warm red and yellow tones.

Through the astronauts' conversation, the audience realized that the astronauts were carrying out a mission on the Acidalia Planitia on Mars.

But at this moment, something strange happened. A strong Martian storm hit, and the commander played by Naomi Watts ordered an evacuation.

However, during the evacuation, Mark Watney, played by Matt Damon, was unfortunately hit by the antenna cover and lost contact.

Several astronauts had to reluctantly leave Mars and return to Earth.

The opening scene has a sense of being told in a leisurely and sophisticated way, while also laying the groundwork for more suspense. (End of this chapter)
