In the end, "The Tomato Man" was released for 45 days, and the box office closed with 3.02 billion. For "Bird Films", it is definitely a big-money hit, but for the entire Chinese film industry, this summer season is not that great.
Beautiful memories.
After "The Tomb Raider" was released, no Chinese-language film could compete with "Ace Player". No, it should be said that all the films released afterwards became cannon fodder.
In the end, "Extreme Player" took in a box office of 3.56 billion in just 30 days after its release. This summer is destined to be anything but ordinary.
With the full promotion of Penguin Video, the Produce Camp girl group has inevitably become one of the hottest topics this year, and the effect achieved by the linkage with "Tomato Rich Man" has made many variety show production companies in the industry envious.
Especially for Kiwi Video, they finally took the lead and were about to start a girl group. However, when Han Fei interfered with it, all the early advantages of "Youth 2" were lost.
For this reason, Zhang Liang, CEO of Kiwi Video, called Han Fei specifically and chatted a lot. The topic was to remind him not to favor one over the other, and that he must consider him first the next time he has such an opportunity.
Han Fei naturally agreed wholeheartedly. This kind of small thing that does not violate the principle should not be too unkind. It is really good if everyone is nice.
The crew has been busy since last year. Han Fei once again gave them a month's paid leave, and at the same time paid last year's bonus. These guys shouted: "Long live Mr. Han" while running faster than
The rabbit is very fast and doesn't get distracted at all.
As for Zhou Teng and Ma Lili, they are not so lucky. The success of "The Richest Tomato" has also made them benchmark figures in Chinese comedy movies. Various invitations come to them, and there is basically no so-called rest time, no.
To catch up with the announcement means to be on the way to catch up with the announcement.
Zhou Teng, in particular, felt pain and happiness at the same time. When he was unknown before, he thought about what he would do if he became famous one day. But now he is really famous, and even sleeping well every night has become a luxury.
But speaking of it, one thing about Zhou Teng is impressive. After seeing the prosperity of the entertainment industry, he did not forget his promise and brought his wife over from his hometown. Well, okay, Han Fei said he felt ashamed.
Others took a rest, but Han Fei was not idle. In fact, the impact of "Extreme Player" on him was far from being as calm as he showed. This film once again made Han Fei realize the power of Hollywood movies.
, that level of 3D special effects almost recreates a world.
For a filmmaker, this temptation is too great. After watching "Avatar", Ang Lee resolutely decided to create the 3D world in his heart, which led to "Life of Pi".
After thinking for a long time, Han Fei decided to take up the banner of special effects movies again, so he wrote the four characters "The Wandering Earth" on the first page of the script.
As one of the few science fiction blockbusters made in China, "The Wandering Earth" is definitely a representative work of Chinese science fiction. Many Hollywood filmmakers have always ridiculed that there are no science fiction movies in China, and even once called Xianxia movies Oriental science fiction.
"The Wandering Earth" is not actually perfect, but what this film brings to Chinese-language films is definitely more than just a "justification of the title" on the surface. More VFX, the special effects company behind "The Wandering Earth", even said that if "
If "The Wandering Earth" fails, Chinese film special effects will be set back for several years.
This statement is definitely not an alarmist statement. In the Chinese film industry, there has always been a tradition of following risks and fearing risks. Many film and television companies do not think about innovation at all and just make whatever is popular anyway, and some movies that have suffered huge losses will also
It becomes a "forbidden zone" that they will never touch.
Han Fei naturally wanted to use this movie to let more film and television companies see that although there is still a gap in technology, it does not mean that we cannot make good special effects movies. As long as we conscientiously do what we can,
To the best of your ability, the audience will definitely buy it, and you will definitely make money. In the final analysis, making money is the number one driving force for production in the film and television industry.
Of course, if Han Fei fails this time, it is estimated that no other film and television company will dare to touch the subject of science fiction special effects blockbusters for a long time.
However, Han Fei is confident that with his current strength, he will definitely not do worse than the original version, or even better than the original version.
Han Fei originally wanted to take advantage of the crew's month off to finish the script by himself, but every time he wrote some settings, he would fall into a state of competing with the original plot.
How should I put it? The reason why "science fiction movies" are amazing lies in their advanced nature. Many things even just stay in the theoretical fantasy of a certain scientist, and there is no way to prove whether they are right or wrong.
Just like in the 1950s and 1960s, the use of computers for office work first appeared in science fiction novels. It was not until computers and the Internet became an indispensable part of people in the 21st century that it became a reality from science fiction.
Han Fei scored more than 500 points in the college entrance examination. It is really difficult for him to expect him to creatively improve the shortcomings of "The Wandering Earth".
Therefore, Han Fei decided to invite professionals to help. Through his connections, he invited a team of professors from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics to follow up the entire script creation process.
The movie "The Wandering Earth" is undoubtedly an ice-breaker. It has very outstanding highlights, but also many shortcomings. For example, a very important point in the original novel is the failure of the closed glass ball ecological cycle system, which gave rise to the spaceship faction.
The conflict with the Earth Faction was not shown.
So the "Wandering Earth" thing became an established [backstory], completely losing the conflict and struggle that humans make when faced with choices.
In Han Fei's view, this is a content that can complete the entire world view and is full of drama. It would be a pity to give up, so in the new version of the script, Han Fei is planning to add this conflict setting.
The creation of the script was quite hard. Fortunately, one month passed quickly. After the crew returned, everyone's first reaction when they saw the script was: Damn it.
Jiang Qinghou was even more excited and danced for joy. They had never imagined that Han Fei would actually reveal such a bombshell after he had only taken a month's leave.
Yes, it is indeed a blockbuster. Science fiction movies, especially hard-core science fiction, have always been the exclusive domain of Hollywood blockbusters. Chinese-language movies have never been hard-core science fiction in the true sense.
Perhaps, this history will be changed in their hands!
