This star is going to the moon

Chapter 114: The Wandering Earth release date confirmed, nominated for Hundred Flowers Awards

There has been a lot of good news since November. The first is that the second payload of the Wanhu rocket has been negotiated, which is basically commercial payload.

The reason why "all" is used is because more than 20 satellites were launched this time.

Two of the most heavyweights are satellites belonging to the oil kingdom, and their total weight is almost one ton.

There is also a satellite called "DouYu 666" for the "DouYu" live broadcast platform.

This is a small satellite weighing dozens of kilograms that was developed by the Douyu platform in cooperation with a commercial satellite company.

As a satellite of the live broadcast platform, it has many adjectives. The relevant person in charge said in an interview:
"This 'Douyu 666' satellite adopts a 'one satellite, two cores' structure. It is the world's first dual-core AI commercial satellite and has the strongest image processing computing power among commercial satellites of its size in the world."

"At the same time, its image processing capability is more than 1000 times that of satellites of the same class, making it one of the smartest commercial satellites of its class in the world."

“Just like our live streaming platform!”

"After the successful launch of our 'Douyu 666' satellite, we will be able to expand the live broadcasting field into space. In the future, netizens will be able to interact directly with the satellite or communicate with each other via the satellite."

"For example, the 'mysterious message in a bottle' from space is one of the 'space + live broadcast' peripheral derivatives. In the future, users will be able to interact with satellites while watching live broadcasts. In addition, there are many other space virtual gifts to be developed..."

In addition to this, there is also a group of 7 "ladybug satellites" that are also very interesting.

Its main star is the 100-kilogram "Ladybug No. 10", and the other two to seven are -kilogram nanosatellites.

The main satellite has the same function as the "Yi Lu Fang Fei" satellite launched by Lu Yun in August, and can also display photos and take photos with the earth or space.

At the same time, it has six other auxiliary satellites, which are equipped with high-power concentrated light arrays that can use the principles of Morse code to express different meanings through long and short flashes.

The remaining satellites are relatively ordinary, all of which are small cubic satellites ranging from tens of kilograms to several kilograms.

The combined mass of these satellites is just over two tons. Originally, they were to be launched into a sun-synchronous orbit by "carpooling" two Long March 2D rockets, but it turned out that the Wanhu rocket was cheaper, so they came here.

However, the Wanhu rocket's sun-synchronous orbit carrying capacity in recovery mode exceeds six tons, and a two-ton payload is not much different from an empty-load takeoff.

Later, the state dispatched a high-resolution earth observation satellite weighing more than two tons. It was originally intended to be launched by the Long March 4B rocket, but now it has been allocated to the Wanhu rocket to support the development of commercial rocket companies.

At the same time, it also saved three old-fashioned "poison rockets" that are harmful to both people and the environment. As a responsible major country, the country really attaches great importance to environmental protection.

Unlike some countries that just talk about it.

I won’t mention any names here.

These satellites also brought the solar orbit payload mass of the second Wanhu rocket to 5 tons, and the weight of the supporting separation structure was close to 6 tons.

It can also be seen from here that the "Wanhu" with a low-orbit recovery capacity of more than 10 tons and a high-orbit recovery capacity of more than 6 tons is indeed a "big rocket", and the payload of three rockets is enough to make up one of it.

Therefore, the small rocket that Deep Blue Arrow wants to build, with a low-orbit recovery capacity of 4 tons and a high-orbit recovery capacity of more than 1 ton, does have a large market.

In addition, it still uses liquid oxygen and methane fuel, so it is not bad to add the title of "world's first" with more adjectives.

Another good news is that "The Wandering Earth" has been scheduled to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year in 2019!

In this life, Ro Yun is involved. He is not comparable to the male protagonist of the previous life in terms of popularity or acting skills, so the main promotional star at the beginning of this life is Ro Yun.

Instead of being like in the previous life, many people felt that whether it was a promotional video, promotional photos or the feature film, Wu Jing seemed to be the male lead.

(Net map)
Lu Yun’s presence is much stronger in this life.

Even... too strong.

[Why isn't Ro-woon the astronaut? Isn't he the one closest to space travel among all the actors?]

[What do you mean by close? Lu Yun is in the aerospace industry!]

[Who is "Hangtian"?] [This is how the movie was designed. You can't let Lu Yun play Wu Jing's father, right?]

【Hey, that’s not impossible! 】

[Rowan's character "Liu Qi" is also quite good. In the trailer, he is a mechanical engineer with a model of a manned rocket on his workbench.]

[But can China make good science fiction films these days? The previously completely silent "Three-Body Problem" movie is still hanging on the crooked tree at the door!]

[The trailer looks good, you'll know for sure when you watch it on New Year's Day.]

I think it should be fine. Guang Luyun himself is very sci-fi, and his acting is good. Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior 2" was so successful, so he should be able to act in a blockbuster movie. And the powered exoskeleton in the trailer looks very real and has a very strong texture.

[Yes, even with the precedent of "The Three-Body Problem," some media have predicted that "The Wandering Earth" could reach 20 billion yuan at the box office...]

Lu Yun also looked at the media's box office forecast, and he felt that this prediction was most likely thanks to him.

Because his influence is so huge now, he has brought a lot of popularity to the movie, and many people decided to go to the movie on New Year's Day based on their recognition of him.

Moreover, what he does in real life can indeed be called "science fiction" to ordinary people, and is very consistent with science fiction movies.

Because of him, Wu Jing invested 2000 million more in the movie than in his previous life, making the special effects of the movie look much better.

At least in this life, the planetary engine special effects in the movie look very real, even those planetary engines that flash by next to landmarks from various countries in the world.

In the previous life, the planetary engine special effects and the real landmarks of various countries were not on the same layer, and looked particularly blurry.

Of course, this is mainly because Director Guo had too little funding to shoot "The Wandering Earth" in his previous life, only 3.2 million yuan, so he could only use the funds where they were needed most.

Unlike a certain movie later, it is said that the cost of one billion, but after looking at the special effects, I really don’t know where the 10 billion cost was spent?

If Director Guo was given 10 billion yuan, what kind of film could he make with "The Wandering Earth"?

In this life, Director Guo's funding increased by 2000 million, from 3.2 million to 3.4 million. Although the increase is not large, because the base is small, 2000 million can do a lot of things.

Coupled with Lu Yun's fame and acting skills, he is very confident about this life of "The Wandering Earth".

The media predicted a box office of 20 billion before even watching the film. How much will it increase after watching the preview?

But once it actually meets the audience, how much can the box office increase?
Anyway, no matter what, it is impossible for "The Wandering Earth" to have only 11% screenings on the first day of the Lunar New Year like in the previous life.

Lu Yun guaranteed that it could get about 20% of the screening time like "Crazy Alien", "Speeding Life" and "The New King of Comedy" in the previous life.

As for whose screening schedule will be cut on the first day of the Lunar New Year in this life, and whose screening schedule will continue to be cut in the future, Lu Yun doesn't care.

Anyway, whoever can't compare to "Boonie Bears" will be embarrassed.

In the previous life, "The Wandering Earth" stopped at 46 billion. The later famous "Half Lake Green" not only suppressed "The Wandering Earth 2" at the box office, but also followed behind "The Wandering Earth" with a box office of 45 billion in the overall list.

With Lu Yun's support in this life, he has to move "The Wandering Earth" forward, away from "Half Lake Green", and avoid getting stained with dirt.

Now Lu Yun also has capital, but he knows that "The Wandering Earth" will be a big hit, so he did not invest any more, but instead planned to support "The Wandering Earth 2".

This is to prevent all kinds of things from climbing up its sleeve later, so that after "Nezha 2" reached the top, it was forced to fall out of the top ten of the domestic film box office list.

Another good news is that "749 Bureau" started filming on time in Shancheng, with the original cast, and Brother Kaizi still played the "Chicken Wing Man", and then shouted: "I am a monster! Monster!".

The other one is good news that Rowoon’s fans cheered for.
