No one expected that the first domestic science fiction blockbuster that everyone had been dreaming about would appear in such a strange way.
On April 10th, the official website of Stars and Sea released an announcement: Stars and Sea's first science fiction movie is about to start filming.
This news was immediately reprinted by media across the country, Hong Kong, Taiwan, East Asia, and Southeast Asia.
Stars and Sea’s first science fiction film!
Just with these few words, the attention will definitely not be small.
Because at least some people who know the company Xingchenhai know it.
In terms of movies, Stars and Sea's biggest advantage, besides having money, is that it has technology, especially special effects technology.
After all, the special effects shown in the "Wukong" music video are still talked about.
After "Wukong", Tesla's sci-fi style advertisement that shocked the world has also made countless movie fans in China look forward to it.
Everyone is looking forward to when Jiang Yan will make his first domestic science fiction film.
In fact, strictly speaking, our country has already had science fiction films, such as "Death Light on the Coral Island", "Thunderbolt Beibei" and so on.
But these films cannot satisfy the appetites of science fiction fans and movie fans.
Jiang Yan knew that what they wanted was a movie like a Hollywood blockbuster.
The picture must have a sense of impact, the details inside must be advanced, and to put it bluntly, the special effects cannot be too fake.
Of course, the core must also be up to standard, at least it shouldn't be too low, which would make people feel like children are playing house, which is not good.
But for such a simple request, the result is that so far, not to mention the mainland, not even Hong Kong, Taiwan and even neon South Korea can make it.
So if you really want to watch this kind of movie, you have to watch Hollywood in the end.
This has made countless people have unlimited expectations for the stars and the sea.
After all, looking at the country and even East Asia, it seems that only Xingchenhai has this technology and strength, and at the same time, only Jiang Yan seems to have this talent and interest.
So everyone waited and waited until now, and finally the fruit has blossomed.
"Jiang Yan, finally get down to business!"
Such a tiring post was pinned to the top of the Internet immediately.
Seeing posts like this, Jiang Yan couldn't help but feel the expectations of domestic movie fans.
However, I am deeply moved, and some things still need to be explained clearly.
After all, what we are going to shoot this time is not the "blockbuster" that everyone expected, but just an experimental, low-budget science fiction film. Otherwise, how could it be completed in just three months?
So he immediately gave an explanation through the official website.
The cost is less than 10 million yuan, it is experimental in nature, and the effect is good. I will make a bigger one next time.
As soon as a few keywords came out, the enthusiasm of many movie fans was extinguished.
After all, everyone knows that 10 million may seem like a lot, but for a science fiction movie, it definitely can’t even fit between your teeth.
Fortunately, Jiang Yan said that this time is just a test. What is the test? It is most likely a test of technology.
Therefore, many movie fans have responded with more expectations, because science fiction movies are really not something that domestic or Asian movies can do well, so it is a good thing for Jiang Yan to be cautious!
Spend a little money first, accumulate skills, and take your time step by step. One day you will be able to make a science fiction blockbuster like Hollywood!
As a result, just when movie fans were looking forward to it, in less than 7 days, Xingchenhai announced that the filming of the movie had started!
Then less than a month later, Xingchenhai announced that the movie was finished!
Then more than a month later, when the country announced that the epidemic had passed, Stars and Seas immediately announced: "Stars and Seas' first science fiction movie "Moon" is scheduled to be released nationwide on August 1!
"
This time, not only movie fans who knew a little bit about it, but also people who didn't know much about it were shocked.
Various discussions followed one after another.
The content of the discussion was also very consistent.
That’s Jiang Yan’s movie. Is it a money-making project?
After all, the shooting and production took only a little over two months, which is a bit too fast for a science fiction film.
At least the science fiction movies in everyone’s mind are definitely not made this way.
So Jiang Yan and his Starry Sea will probably be outraged this time!
"Public opinion is somewhat unfavorable to you."
In the Starry Sea projection room, Han Sanpin smiled and said to Jiang Yan beside him.
Jiang Yan was still very calm: "I won't hit you on this issue now."
"So confident?"
"certainly."
"good!"
Han Sanpin stopped asking questions and concentrated on waiting for everyone to gather and start the test screening.
And the reason why he is like this is that he actually has enough confidence in Jiang Yan.
On April 10, Jiang Yan came up with the idea of making a science fiction film after returning to the sea of stars from Xiangjiang.
Then the next day he submitted the script to a certain bureau for review, and within half a day he was informed that it had been approved without changing a word.
After passing the review, Han Sanpin immediately called to ask about the situation.
Stars and Sea is the first science fiction film, which is of great significance to the history of Chinese film.
The reason why a certain round was passed so quickly was that, in addition to conforming to the script, the above points were also taken into consideration.
In other words, not only the domestic people know that "if you want to make good science fiction, the only country in the country is Stars and Seas", the General Administration naturally also knows it.
For a leading enterprise like Xingchenhai, it is natural to support it when it is needed.
Therefore, Han Sanpin immediately strongly requested to come to the scene to observe.
After arriving at the set, he learned that the total cost of Jiang Yan's science fiction film would not exceed 10 million yuan, and the shooting period was expected to be no more than two months, and the shooting locations would all be completed in a studio.
Han Sanpin frowned at that time.
Isn't this deceiving people?
Or is it that Jiang Yan’s understanding of science fiction movies is different from ours?
Fortunately, after watching it later, Han Sanpin realized that science fiction films are actually not that difficult.
It doesn’t mean that it has to be a big scene to be called a science fiction film.
Just like the current "Moon", it is a low-budget film with only one starring role and not many scenes.
Jiang Yan acted alone. From April 17th to April 11th, it only took more than 0 days of filming to complete.
】
During these 0 days, Han Sanpin not only saw many black technologies in the sea of stars, but also witnessed the entire filming process of "one person's science fiction film".
Then another month passed, and when Han Sanpin came to the sea of stars again, all production of "Moon" had been completed.
From April 10th to today, June 13th, a total of two months and two days.
"Moon" was made at the speed of light.
So, what will be the final effect of this film?
An hour and a half later.
Jiang Yan smiled and asked Han Sanpin: "How do you feel?"
Han Sanpin also responded with a smile: "How big a film schedule do you want?"
So things were quickly decided as to when it would be released, just waiting for the epidemic to pass.
On July 13th, the epidemic situation was fully relaxed, and Xingchenhai immediately announced the summer release of two movies.
The first part is "When a Man Falls in Love" which has received normal attention and is scheduled to be released on July 0.
The second film is "Moon", the "first science fiction film" that is currently being ridiculed by netizens and the media, and is scheduled to be released on August 1st.
