Chapter 528 Are You Cheap? (asking for monthly ticket)
See the movie: "This is a groundbreaking science fiction film. It is a film that can rekindle everyone's love for Chinese science fiction."
Movie of the Week: "The industrialization of The Wandering Earth is no less than that of Hollywood. This movie will be the biggest surprise of the Lunar New Year holiday."
Imperial Capital Entertainment News: "The Wandering Earth is a science fiction film full of Chinese characteristics. This film will surely become a benchmark for science fiction films."
…
All major film magazines and entertainment weekly have reported on "The Wandering Earth".
Basically, good reviews are the best.
Because "The Wandering Earth" has not yet been released, these media basically do not reveal spoilers when reporting on it, but they all gave "The Wandering Earth" extremely high praise.
During this preview, almost half of the media and film critics in the capital gave extremely high praise to "The Wandering Earth".
Why say half???
Because the remaining half don’t like "The Wandering Earth".
The reason for not liking it is very simple.
Because this is a so-called science fiction film with Chinese characteristics, they feel that it has too many loopholes.
What forced sensationalism.
What is this so-called immortal protagonist?
What kind of science fiction movie forces the relationship between father and son?
This so-called Chinese hero is too deliberate.
There is absolutely no point in saving it.
And so on.
However, these people also did not give any spoilers, they just slightly expressed their dislike.
This is interesting.
There were two waves of people watching the movie "The Wandering Earth" in total, and after the preview, there were only more than 1,000 people. However, the discussions and word of mouth among these 1,000 people are completely different.
If the first wave of positive reviews for "The Wandering Earth" almost praised it to the sky, then the second wave that followed was full of expressions of dislike.
Of course, it's not half and half. If you calculate it based on the ratio, it's not much, just 7 to 3.
Social platforms have gone crazy.
There are only a few people, but the discussion about "The Wandering Earth" cannot be stopped at all.
As for Douhu, it is more professional.
Among them, Su Qing, who knew Yu Xiaoshu well and had talked with him, wrote more.
She wrote: "Yu Xiaoshu is one step closer to his goal - The Wandering Earth."
This was Su Qing’s title, and then Su Qing first wrote about Yu Xiaoshu’s previous goals.
What belongs to the nation belongs to the world.
If we take the rules set by the West as our direction, then the TV series and movies we make in the future will either be completely Westernized or be a bit weird.
Movies are a bridge of communication. Many times we need to use culture and movies to let others understand us. In this regard, we Chinese have not done enough.
We have now been completely invaded by Western culture, but we are still unaware of it.
No matter what we do or what we judge, it seems that what the West does is right, and the same thing is wrong if we do it.
In this regard, I agree with what Yu Xiaoshu said.
We need to have our own ideas and opinions. For any movie, we should not always think about getting Western recognition, as if Western recognition is something to be proud of.
To put it bluntly, this is the kneeling tribe.
Actually, I was not very optimistic about the movie "The Wandering Earth" at the beginning, because it is too difficult for China to make a good science fiction movie, both in terms of plot and special effects.
But after watching the preview of "The Wandering Earth" today, I feel that my worries are unnecessary.
The script of "The Wandering Earth" written by Yu Xiaoshu is so good. This movie is full of Chinese elements and is especially suitable for watching during the Lunar New Year holiday. At the same time, based on the principle of not spoiling the plot, I would like to say that the criticisms of the movie "The Wandering Earth" are groundless.
You can all see whether we can treat everyone equally.
Movies shot in the West can be so unreasonable, and you think it's okay, and you even say that the protagonists in the West can't be killed, and you think it's normal. Why can't Chinese movies be okay? ? ?
…
Without giving away any spoilers, Su Qing wrote a post of nearly 2,000 words at this time, and more than 1,000 of these 2,000 words were basically curses.
Scolding everyone for being double standards.
When you scold some people, you will give one more point to Western movies and subtract one point from Chinese movies.
They kneel down to Western movies and find fault with Chinese movies.
Of course, in the end, Su Qing said something very neutral.
That is, "The Wandering Earth" does have some problems. I will talk to you about this when it is officially released. I will not say anything about your rational criticisms, and please spare some time for those double standards and malicious smears.
Today’s audience is no longer the same as it once was.
The moon abroad is not always round.
…
have to.
I've finished scolding people for having a penis that's 2.8 meters long.
In addition, some other big Vs also participated in the preview, and they naturally gave their own comments at this time.
Overall, I feel it is good.
Even though people like Ming Ming and 'This Bowl Has a Hole' didn't say too much negative things about "The Wandering Earth", they are Yu Xiaoshu's black fans after all, so it is impossible to ask them to praise it.
It's okay to be sarcastic for a while.
This is the current situation of Douhu.
Although Douhu is generally considered to be the most fair and just rating website, even the most fair and just website has its own biases. On Douhu, one point is often automatically added to TV series and movies from Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea. Even if the TV series is slightly better, two points are automatically added.
But in comparison, the requirements for domestic films and TV dramas are slightly stricter.
Just like what Su Qing scolded.
The same plot, the same routine, the same type of protagonist. If you are a European or American movie, a Hollywood-style hero, then there will be no problem. Many Hollywood protagonists will not die no matter how hard you fight.
Well, no one will discuss whether it is reasonable or not.
But if it is a domestic film, it won’t work.
This is a double standard.
Many people are criticizing "The Wandering Earth" in this aspect.
This is also the reason why Su Qing scolded.
In addition to Douhu, Xiang Fei opened a special topic on "The Wandering Earth" in the evening, and his first article was more professional.
“The Wandering Earth is a film that dares to try new things and a film that dares to be the first.”
This is the title of the article.
At the beginning, Xiang Fei first talked about the dilemma of Chinese science fiction films. In addition, he talked about some of the difficulties encountered in the film and television adaptation and shooting production of Chinese science fiction literary works.
Some adapted IPs may not have been released for several years.
These are cruel realities.
Another thing is that Chinese science fiction movies are still in their infancy, and they are not as good as those abroad. Science fiction movies also require a very professional system, from production to directing, from photography to visual effects. What can be filmed well abroad?
Because there is a professional industrial process abroad.
But China doesn’t.
For this reason, "The Wandering Earth" can be said to be a brave attempt as a science fiction film. This is why Yu Xiaoshu said in an interview that it doesn't matter if the film fails, at least they will figure out something.
This is the most precious thing.
…
Xiang Fei gave a detailed introduction to some of the difficulties faced by Chinese science fiction films. These difficulties are all realistic. He also talked about the difficulties of making the movie "The Wandering Earth".
This is an adventure.
And everyone should not forget one thing, Yu Xiaoshu is now one of the top screenwriters in China. He can totally write what he is better at, and there is no need for him to take any risks.
However, when interviewing Yu Xiaoshu, Yu Xiaoshu expressed his hope to make a science fiction film that would be recognized by China, because this was not just Yu Xiaoshu's wish, but the wish of all Chinese filmmakers.
This movie will definitely leave a mark in the history of Chinese science fiction films.
Yu Xiaoshu also explained why he said at the celebration party for "Mountains and Seas" that the success of a movie is inseparable from the cooperation of the team, because just like a movie like "The Wandering Earth", it would never have been possible to succeed without the efforts of everyone in the crew.
…
After all, this is the first special article on "The Wandering Earth" published by China Film News, so in this first article Xiang Fei mainly gives everyone a brief scientific overview and then expresses some of Yu Xiaoshu's ideas and plans.
Passion.
Without a love for science fiction movies, success would be impossible.
…
The timing of publishing this article is a bit coincidental.
Because his article and the one in "See Movies": "The Wandering Earth, a film that everyone is determined to create, is bound to create a record" were released almost at the same time.
After all, 'See Movies' has always been known for its professionalism.
That's exactly the case. Basically, after Zhong Fei finished interviewing Yu Xiaoyang, he knew what to write.
But unlike others, Zhong Fei chatted with other creators.
Zhong Fei focused on chatting with the people behind the scenes.
Needless to say, the director Yang Fei. Zhong Fei really wanted to know how Yang Fei was chosen by Yu Xiaoshu, and how he dared to shoot such a science fiction movie.
The second is the executive director, because the executive director is responsible for a lot of scenes.
There is also art direction, editing, post-production, etc.
Of course, what shocked Zhong Fei even more was that the post-production of "The Wandering Earth" was actually edited by Yu Xiaoshu.
Screenwriting, editing, everything.
Post-production Director.
You know, sometimes the job of a post-production director is harder than that of a screenwriter.
“No one knows The Wandering Earth better than Mr. Yu, and no one knows how to edit better than him, so I am very fortunate to have Mr. Yu’s trust and that he gave me such an opportunity.”
"I am completely inspired by Mr. Yu's imagination. I want to say that I am honored and excited to be able to work with Mr. Yu on a science fiction film, a science fiction film that has never been seen in China."
"What can I say about this movie? It's worth it. Everything is worth it."
…
What Zhong Fei felt even more shocked was the light in everyone’s eyes when they talked about the movie “The Wandering Earth”.
That's passion.
In this regard, it can be said that his idea is basically the same as Xiang Fei's.
A science fiction movie, a groundbreaking science fiction movie that brings together all the hard-working people who want to do their work in a down-to-earth and serious manner.
Zhong Fei hasn't seen such an idealist for a long time.
Professional and scientific, I also told you that China has never had a science fiction movie of its own, whether it is the so-called hard science fiction or soft science fiction.
Over the years, when people talk about science fiction movies, they are basically foreign ones. Even foreign science fiction movies from twenty years ago crush the so-called Chinese science fiction movies today.
It's not shameful to be less skilled than others.
But if you are not as skilled as others and don't think about learning the skills well and don't think about working hard, then that won't work.
This is Zhong Fei’s appreciation for Yu Xiaoshu and Baiqian Media.
He felt that these people really dared to fight and struggle, and they truly loved movies.
In addition to Zhong Fei, Zhou Yi from "One Week Movie" also published an article. His article was not from a professional perspective, but rather from a gossip perspective.
After all, there are two science fiction movies in this year's Lunar New Year period, one is Yu Xiaoshu's "The Wandering Earth" and the other is Bai Suzhen's "The Rescue".
Zhou Yi is quite good at writing gossip.
After all, there is a lot of gossip to write about Bai Suzhen and Yu Xiaoshu.
When the two of them officially announced their relationship, they were praised by the industry as a strong combination, a talented man and a talented woman.
As for the later breakup, it seemed to be because the two people had different opinions and both of them had rather tough personalities.
Then, Bai Suzhen went abroad, and Yu Xiaoshu got married in the country and fell into poverty.
In short, these things were dug out by Zhou Yi.
He wrote this gossip very well.
While letting everyone eat melons, they also talked about how good Yu Xiaoshu's "The Wandering Earth" was. In the previous round, Bai Suzhen's "My Grandma" lost to Yu Xiaoshu's "Drawing Sword".
That was a TV show, now it’s time to watch a movie.
At present, Bai Suzhen's movie "The Rescue" has not yet started previewing, but Zhou Yi said that the pressure is now on Bai Suzhen.
Because judging from the current preview of "The Wandering Earth", this movie has a chance to be a hit, so what about "The Rescue"? ? ?
Let's wait and see.
…
kindness.
"The Wandering Earth" was previewed in the morning, and then in the afternoon and evening, the promotion was basically fully launched overnight.
We will spend money on part of it, have the water company actively promote part of it, and have the industry discuss part of it.
Three lines launched simultaneously.
Then, "The Wandering Earth" was screened yesterday and successfully made it to the hot search list today.
And today's hot search topics are: "Can "The Wandering Earth" bring a revival to science fiction???"
This topic is indeed a bit hateful.
For example, Bai Suzhen.
"Haha, it really hasn't changed at all."
Bai Su Su looked at the situation on the Internet and sneered.
