The promotion of "The Wandering Earth" has been launched.
First, all kinds of materials, posters, theme songs, scheduled dates, story outlines, etc. were thrown out one by one and wildly promoted on Weibo, Maili, and Midou.
Naturally, some people are angry: "I keep saying to curb the star-chasing hype, but in the end I am more hyped than anyone else, and I am both worthy and established!"
"Is there a premise, okay? It's to resist idols who have no strength, are not dedicated, and rely solely on selling their faces to promote themselves to the top. Are you so angry and frustrated? Do you think you're on the right track?"
"What a big joke. How can he judge whether he has strength or not?"
"You know how awesome he is, if you don't accept it, just hold it in!"
"It's useless to argue now. When the movie comes out, the mule or the horse will come out for a walk. I hope Commander Yao won't do it in vain."
Indeed, it is useless to say anything now, we will wait until it is released.
The bloodbath in 1999 caused a huge amount of traffic. The old actors were as stable as a rock. They didn’t go on Weibo, so they probably didn’t know about it. In the Mesozoic era, they were worried about being implicated, but the result was okay.
Even more impressive are the great directors such as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige. The changes in the entertainment industry have nothing to do with them. Their status is stable and they always occupy the top resources. Each film they make is worse than the last.
Zhang Yimou's latest work is "Shadow" starring Deng Chao and Sun Li, and his previous film was "The Great Wall".
This has given him a bad reputation in recent years. He was followed by "One Second" and "Above the Cliff", and the reuse of Liu Haocun made everyone even more dissatisfied. However, due to the success of the 70th anniversary celebration of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, he is still in the public impression.
, still lives up to the name of a national teacher.
Until, ah, until the legendary "Man Jiang Hong" appeared, and it became a shit book both on and off screen.
Director Chen was even more embarrassed. Although "Changjin Lake" broke the record, it had nothing to do with him personally and no one would record it in his book of glory.
"Volunteers: Heroes Attack", which he directed alone, is a true portrayal of Director Chen, and it has a box office of 800 million - this is a trilogy, and there are two more to come.
In 1984, the fifth-generation director's pioneering work "One and Eight" was released, and in 2019 "The Wandering Earth" was released, spanning 35 years!
Such a long time is enough to leave some people in the past and open the door to the future for others.
Zhang Yimou couldn't understand Guo Fan, and he couldn't understand "Red Sorghum" or "The Wandering Earth".
But in contrast, young people who grew up in the Internet age receive all kinds of information and are obsessed with various subcultures.
From Cthulhu to cyberpunk, from horsemanship to old man's headband, from Game of Thrones to Marvel, from repairing donkey hooves to building cabins in the wild, no matter how niche things are, everyone likes them.
So when the trailers and highlights of "The Wandering Earth" began to dominate the screen, and when the 50-meter transport vehicle at the Oriental Film Center slowly started to move, countless science fiction fans screamed.
And Yao Yuan obtained official permission, and a draft ""The Wandering Earth" Enters Zhongnanhai" was released.
The boss generously donated his name and allowed it to appear on the draft, and the names of the national teams who gave strong support were also revealed, which instantly raised the film's intensity to an infinite level.
"News Feeds"?
I haven't thought about it yet, I'll report it before it's released.
………………
"Eat melon!"
"What a melon...oh!"
At night, Yinyin walked into the study carrying a plate of sliced honeydew melons. Yao Yuan picked up a piece and gnawed it with little interest, while Yinyin picked up the book on the desk and looked through it.
After looking at it for a while, he said: "Your plan is very detailed. It's not like you can figure it out in a day or two."
"I've always been a cunning person. I was considering a transformation a few years ago."
Yao Yuan briefly explained to her, saying: "Games, WeChat, drones, long and short videos, cross-border e-commerce and logistics, artificial intelligence, new agriculture, these are the seven businesses in which I will hold a lot of shares in the future, most of them
They are still mature, so the last three are new projects.”
“You don’t want Weibo anymore?”
"Under the impact of short videos, the daily activity of Weibo will gradually decrease. After this turmoil, it is unlikely that I will monopolize Weibo. Instead of doing this, it is better to branch out and earn some funds."
"If you successfully reduce your holdings, how much can you cash out?"
"How did I know? I have to wait until I'm in a higher position to do it again."
"You estimate!"
Yin Yin arched him.
"Why are you so keen, you money-hungry woman!"
Yao Yuan snorted and pondered: "Why is there 300 billion? This is our family's private funds. If we add the shares we hold, it will exceed one trillion."
"so much?"
Yinyin was startled.
"Why do I dare to abandon those industries? Even though I still hold the trump card of short video, you can't even imagine how far it can develop!"
In later generations, ByteDance’s valuation reached an exaggerated 3 trillion yuan!
Domestic Douyin, overseas TikTok, and Pinduoduo are making rapid progress. The Internet landscape has long changed, Tencent is making steady progress, Alibaba is on the decline, and a new king is about to be crowned.
It is only a matter of time before Zhang Yiming or Huang Zheng becomes the richest man.
"Wait a minute, I'll take a look..."
Yinyin said with some excitement: "You mean, we will have a net worth of over one trillion, including at least 300 billion in private money?"
"yes!"
"Oh my god~"
Yinyin sighed with emotion, suddenly hugged his neck and said: "Husband, I'm a little scared."
"Don't be afraid, because I am afraid too."
"Oh, I'm serious!"
"I'm serious too..."
Yao Yuan comforted her and said with a smile: "The dividends of the Internet have come to an end. The future will be dominated by technology products. Regardless of our meager financial resources, if we are thrown into the pit of technology, we will only make a fuss."
So don’t be afraid, just think that what we have in our pockets is three melons and two dates, not to mention that we have to give it to our children.”
"Ahhhh!!"
As soon as the children arrived, Yao Xiaobao suddenly ran in wearing a purple wig, big glasses frames, overalls, and holding a plastic poop toy, shaking it at the two of them.
"Sailor Moon, transform!"
"Bala La Energy, Sharo Sharo!"
"I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!"
She ran in and ran out in a dazed manner. She didn't need her parents to participate, she just had a lot of fun by herself.
"..."
Yao Yuan was quiet for two seconds and said: "Stop showing her some cartoons, they are all boring!"
"I think this child's brain is not very good. Well, I can't say that it's not bad. She is just too out of touch and her thoughts move very fast. I don't even know what she is thinking."
Yin Yin said sadly.
"It's okay, it's okay. It shows that Xiaobao is smart and doesn't stick to formalities. And you are pregnant too. Let's change the way of educating this child."
Speaking of this, Yao Yuan squatted down and leaned against her belly to listen, while Yin Yin smiled and pinched his face.
It's been 3 months.
If normal, I will give birth next summer.
There is a saying that Yao Yuan would die of envy because these two children were born in Rome.
…………
At the end of 2019, the epidemic broke out in Wuhan and quickly spread across the country.
When it was discovered in the Huanan Seafood Market, it was said to be a "case of pneumonia of unknown cause". It was not until January 2020 that it was clear that it was a new type of coronavirus pneumonia.
The New Year's Eve party of 1999 is on December 31st.
In his impression, Beijing was not affected in any way at the end of 2019, but he did not dare to guarantee whether any of the UP owners from all over the world had passed through Wuhan.
So he decided long ago to cancel next year’s New Year’s Eve.
So this year will be the last New Year's Eve before the epidemic ends. Yao Yuan specially ordered it to be grander, with richer prizes, and attended in person with his pregnant Yinyin.
There is nothing new in the process, it is just a great gathering between UP owners and fans.
This year, many powerful newcomers have emerged, such as Handmade Geng, Muyu Shuixin, I am Guo Jierui, food writer Wang Gang, Kominato Yotsuba, Wing Wu, Kitano Mina, etc.
Handmade Geng is the most popular.
His name is Geng Shuai, a low-profile version of Fan Shaohuang, the male version of Sanji Caihua, and a welder from rural Baoding.
Using his skillful welding skills and imagination, he created a lot of nonsensical trendy items, which his mother commented: "It's not that it's useless, it's really useless!"
In "My Hometown and Me", the prototype of Huang Bo's character is him.
Xu Meng hid the secret from Yao Yuan and gave him a surprise. Just when the party was about to end and Yao Yuan was standing on the stage to deliver his New Year's speech, he saw something he didn't know what it was and drove towards it.
That's right, it's coming here.
This thing has four big wheels, a white chassis, and a small house built on it. In front of the house is the driver's seat. Manual Geng drove this thing and stopped in front of Yao Yuan.
"Yao, hello Commander Yao!"
He had long hair, an unkempt beard, and was so nervous that he stuttered a bit. Yao Yuan knew it was a special show at a glance, so he naturally had to cooperate. He took the initiative to shake hands and said, "Is this your new work?"
"Yes, Mai Li contacted me and told me to give you a surprise, so I specially made this [waterway amphibious fishing RV]."
"Wait a minute, could you please say it again?"
“Amphibious fishing RV on the water!”
"Hahaha!"
Everyone laughed loudly, and Handicraft Geng continued: "I know you like fishing, so I came up with this idea. I spent three months conceiving, designing, and manufacturing it. Don't dislike it."
"Of course not, but I can't quite understand such a strange creation. Can you explain it to me?" Yao Yuan praised.
"well!"
When it comes to professionalism, Handigen Geng relaxes.
"First of all, this is an operating platform. The steering wheel is detachable. I will remove it first, and you can put the fishing rod here... If you can't catch the fish, just put the steering wheel back on, and it will become a small car for transfer.
To other locations.”
"If you are unable to catch fish on the shore, just pull this and the paddle at the back will be lowered, and you can go fishing in the water... If you are tired of fishing, you can rest in the back."
"Look at this lounge. In order to make it more comfortable and feel like home, I installed a lot of household appliances, a small refrigerator, an induction cooker, a TV... and then I also prepared a Gongfu tea set, knowing that you like to drink tea.
, you can let it glide freely in the water, pull down the sun visor, and enjoy fishing while making tea..."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
He was already laughing to death. The more serious his introduction was, the more ridiculous he became.
"What a great invention, practical and exquisite. Thank you for your gift!"
"You like it the best. I am really honored to have a face-to-face conversation with you today. It is you who gave us creators the opportunity to show off. I will definitely invent more and more useful things in the future."
The manual work has gone on.
Yao Yuan himself was on the stage, looking at this waterway amphibious fishing RV, he couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the crowd also followed suit, he waved his hand again, and there was an instant silence.
"What else can I say? What I want to say has been said just now. This is already the 13th year. There is no need to say anything more."
"Finally, I can only say, thank you for accompanying me all the way. The Internet world is so big, no matter the wind or rain, as long as you come, I will pick you up."
Yao Yuan paused, crossed his long legs, and got into the car.
"Hahaha!"
"Commander Yao, take a video for us to see!"
"I don't believe it can go into the water!"
"See you next year, Commander Yao!"
"see you next year……"
Yao Yuan promised a lie, walked down the stage and waved his hands, drove the car in the style that best demonstrated the 99 style, and disappeared from everyone's sight.
boom!
The New Year bell rings, ribbons fly, and 2019 arrives.
