Chapter 295 An epoch-making movie!

December 2008, 10

Beiping, Jupiter IMAX Cinema

"The Wandering Earth" was officially released in Mainland China and Hong Kong theaters at midnight on the 1st. The Mainland China National Day schedule ushered in a reality-level movie, Director Lu's masterpiece after a year.

Starring Liu Yifei, winner of three major film festivals, and Zhang Ruoyun, winner of Golden Horse Award.

Top Chinese movie stars Chen Long, Jet Li, Zhang Ziyi, Robert Downey Jr.

Guest stars Ge You, Gong Li, Zhou Runfa, Zhang Manyu, Leonardo and other movie stars.

The camp is so luxurious that it can be called the most luxurious in the history of Chinese-language films.

In addition, Director Lu has just directed the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, which is very popular. The film has received global attention. Watching "The Wandering Earth" on National Day has become a must.

Dressed in a purple skirt, Master Liu wore a white peaked cap with the brim lowered to avoid being recognized by the public. As one of the Four Little Actresses, Master Liu has many fans in the mainland.

But today everyone is watching "The Wandering Earth" and no one will pay attention to others.

Master Liu was looking at the intersection, looking for Director Lu. Today he specially put on beautiful high-heeled shoes, got up early in the morning, and dressed up at home for two hours.

Because today Director Lu asked me to go out to watch a movie alone.

After learning about this last night, Master Liu was so excited that he couldn't sleep at night. In order to fall asleep as soon as possible, he took medicine to fall asleep as soon as possible the next day without holding his panda eyes.

"What are you looking at?" Lu Chen came behind Liu Shishi.

"Huh?" Master Liu was frightened all the way. He turned around and saw Lu Chen. He didn't expect Director Lu to come from the other side. He quickly adjusted his skirt, fearing that something was wrong, which would lessen the impression in Director Lu's mind.

"Have the tickets been sold?" Lu Chen asked.

Today I asked Master Liu to come out and watch "The Wandering Earth".

One is to see the popularity of the release of "The Wandering Earth".

The second thing is to talk to Master Liu about the new movie.

Master Liu shook his head, "Not yet, I'll buy it right now. Director Lu, wait for me here."

Just as he was about to leave, he saw his hand being held.

She was so shy that this was considered holding hands and having close contact with Director Lu.

"Let's go buy it together." Lu Chen pulled Liu Shishi, and instead of going to the cinema to queue up to buy tickets, he went to the scalper.

The ticket price for "The Wandering Earth" released today is the highest in the Mainland.

As the largest and most advanced IMAX theater in Peiping.

Due to the high cost, the ticket price for "The Wandering Earth" is set at 150 yuan.

The average ticket price for "The Wandering Earth" in major theaters in Peking is around [-].

150 yuan in Peiping is more than a day's salary for most people.

The ticket price is set so high, firstly because of the huge cost of "The Wandering Earth", and also because it can increase the box office in the mainland. For the same number of moviegoers, the difference in box office between [-] and [-] people can be doubled.

"If you want a vote, yes, 300." The scalper held out three fingers.

"How much?" Lu Chen thought it was about two hundred.

After all, the ticket price has been set so high.

It’s only 2008, so my income is definitely not particularly high.

I didn’t expect three hundred.

It's doubled, and Huang Nian will make twice as much money if he co-authored it.

"Young man, I see your girlfriend has such a good figure, she must be a beauty. If you want to win the heart of a beauty, you have to be willing to give up." The scalper looked at Master Liu, but because he was wearing a peaked cap and a mask, he must not have recognized it, "And this What theater is it? IMAX theater, can the ticket price be the same?"

"I remember the ticket price was one hundred and fifty." Lu Chen felt quite unhappy. He had worked so hard on the film, and for "The Wandering Earth" he had to sell everything.

These scalpers can make a hundred and fifty dollars per ticket, so they are quite profitable.

"Young man, haven't you ever taken a train during the Chinese New Year? Things are rare and expensive, and there are so many people who want this ticket." The scalper said, raising his voice, "Do you know how much investment was made in Director Lu's "The Wandering Earth"? 3 million! It’s still a U.S. dollar. How much does it cost? Let me count one hundred and one hundred. I don’t know how long it will last.”

"Lu..." Master Liu almost called Director Lu. If Director Lu was recognized, today's movie date would be interrupted. "Brother, let's buy the tickets first."

As he spoke, he opened his bag and took out six hundred cash.

Fortunately, I had prepared a lot of cash today. Five-star hotel suites in Peiping are not cheap now.

"I wish you happiness and happiness." The scalper took the money and gave two tickets with a smile on his face. These were the tickets he bought after queuing up all night last night.

But worth it.

If you earn three hundred for two, you can wash your feet and get a massage. This is no more enjoyable than watching "The Wandering Earth".

After hearing this, Mr. Liu burst into laughter and wanted to give scalpers a few hundred more. If he can speak, he should speak more.

"Do you have tickets for "The Wandering Earth"?" At this time, another young couple came over.

Master Liu was originally going to go in with Director Lu, but when he saw Director Lu stopped and wanted to take a look, he had no choice but to accompany him.

"Of course, three hundred." Yellow Ox held out three fingers.

"Why is it expensive?" The couple obviously felt it was expensive, "How about two hundred pieces?"

"Young man, you also want to see what kind of movie it is. This is director Lu's new work, and the movie camp is extremely luxurious." The scalper said, taking out a newspaper, which was the Chinese Film News, "Take a look and you will say it is worth it." It’s not worth three hundred tickets.”

China Film News.

The front page headline was given to "The Wandering Earth".

#The world’s first true 3D movie#
The following article highly praises "The Wandering Earth".

Because the reporter from China Film News has watched "The Wandering Earth", he told the audience about the impact and shock brought by the movie.

Director Lu Chen spent 2 years and spent nearly 3 million US dollars to create "The Wandering Earth", which opened up a new world of 3D film technology. The audio-visual experience it brought to people was also epoch-making, and a new era in film history began.

IMAX theater, finally waiting for his Prince Charming "The Wandering Earth".

Huaguo Film News also said something about IMAX theaters at the end of the article. IMAX technology has been around for decades, and IMAX theaters are also increasing.

However, the growth rate has been slow. Until now, the number of IMAX theaters has not exceeded 400.

Because most movies do not require the huge screen in the IMAX theater.

But "The Wandering Earth" needs it, but more importantly, IMAX theaters need "The Wandering Earth". Only "The Wandering Earth" can make the audience feel the huge difference between IMAX theaters and ordinary theaters.

"Is it really that shocking to watch "The Wandering Earth" in an IMAX theater?" The young couple still hesitated when they saw the Chinese film newspaper handed to them by scalpers.

Three hundred and one ticket.

If you are an ordinary movie, you can watch it nearly ten times, but "The Wandering Earth" can only be watched once.

"Of course it's shocking. This is the largest IMAX theater in Peiping and the largest in the country. The viewing effect is unique." Scalper said, and took out another newspaper, "Look at the Urban Entertainment News. Isn't a newspaper saying " "The Wandering Earth" is great to watch, but all the media said it."

"So many newspapers." Master Liu on the side was surprised when he saw seven or eight newspapers under the scalper's clothes.

"This is called doing a job, loving a job, and being well prepared for work." Lu Chen continued to watch, wanting to see more feedback from the audience about "The Wandering Earth".

The young couple took the urban entertainment newspaper and started reading it.

The headlines on the front page of the Metropolis Entertainment Newspaper are also very eye-catching.

#The epoch-making movie "The Wandering Earth" can announce that global movies have entered a new era, the 3D movie era#
In the article, there is also a lot of introduction to "The Wandering Earth."

Only a few minutes after the opening of "The Wandering Earth", the truly immersive effect immediately appeared. It was also the first 3D shot in "The Wandering Earth".

The huge "International Space Station" appeared on the big screen, and the camera zoomed in. The "National Space Station" was so big that it could not see the big screen, right in front of Big Eyes.

And the spaceships flying towards the International Space Station are like flying from outside the big screen into the big screen. They are like flying past the eyes of the audience, as if the audience is watching this scene in space.

City Entertainment News clearly stated in its article the shock brought by "The Wandering Earth" to the audience. It also predicted that the release of "The Wandering Earth" will change the pattern of the film industry and usher in a new era for the film industry. 3D movie era.

"What kind of magic is this?" The young lovers were all moved when they saw this. From what these newspapers said, it felt like "The Wandering Earth" was more than just a movie.

It is a new industrial revolution in the film industry. If you don’t watch it, you won’t be able to participate in this event that will definitely be recorded in the history of world cinema.

"I want it." The young couple decided to take it last. "Atmosphere." The scalper took out the ticket, "I tell you, the price is absolutely worth it. This is the best cinema hall in the country, and today is the first day of screening. You are the fastest audience to see "The Wandering Earth"." Maybe we can meet Director Lu inside."

"Director Lu, they knew you were coming..." Master Liu suddenly became nervous.

Lu Chen quickly pulled Liu Shishi away. He didn't want to be exposed. He wanted to go inside the cinema and continue to watch the audience's reaction to "The Wandering Earth".

Come inside the cinema.

It was full of people queuing up.

The movie tickets for the first three days have already been sold out, and everyone can only buy tickets for the next three days, and there are more and more people queuing up.

Because the reputation of "The Wandering Earth" has exploded.

Yesterday, although the pre-sales of "The Wandering Earth" were particularly good, the IMAX theaters were not full.

Of course the biggest reason is the ticket price.

One hundred and fifty one ticket.

This has broken the historical record of mainland movie ticket prices.

When the ticket price came out, many people attacked Lu Chen, the director of "The Wandering Earth".

To say that he directed the most successful Olympic Games opening ceremony in history is already ridiculous. He dared to charge such an outrageous ticket price.

Of course, these people don't care that this is the highest ticket price in Peking Cinema. The largest IMAX theater, the average ticket price of "The Wandering Earth" in Peking is [-].

But these people focus on one hundred and fifty movie tickets.

Of course these are negative points.

In the early morning of October 10st, after the zero o'clock show "The Wandering Earth" was played, a reversal occurred immediately.

Audiences who have watched the movie expressed their thoughts on various forums, and all gave the highest praise to "The Wandering Earth", saying that what they watched was not just a movie, but also witnessed an epoch-making moment in the film industry.

"There are so many people." Liu Shishi looked at it, which was comparable to the waiting hall of a train station during the Spring Festival travel period.

With so many people coming, this is the largest IMAX theater in Peiping and the best theater to experience "The Wandering Earth".

"Hold on tight, don't get lost later." Lu Chen held Liu Shishi's hand tightly. There were too many people. If he got lost, he wouldn't know where to look.

Master Liu is from a girl's family, so if he is alone, he is still a little bit dangerous.

Liu Shishi is raised, but don't wait to pick it off and taste it, and someone will get there first.

"Yeah~" Master Liu nodded obediently, feeling even more happy inside.

At this time, a large group of people came out of the movie theater in front of the movie theater.

Everyone's expressions were filled with excitement, and they were all still immersed in the shocking video brought by "The Wandering Earth" just now.

Audiences queuing up immediately asked whether "The Wandering Earth" was good or not.

Although all the major media and forums are now unanimously positive, everyone still wants to ask the audience who have just watched "The Wandering Earth" whether it is worth spending [-] yuan to watch a movie.

"It's good to watch. If you don't watch it, you will regret it for the rest of your life." The audience who watched it were very excited when they said, ""The Wandering Earth" is definitely the strongest science fiction movie in history. Damn Director Lu, this will make all science fiction movies in the next ten years... It all tastes the same, because my aesthetic standards have been raised several notches by "The Wandering Earth"!"

"Is it so exaggerated?" The audience queuing up to buy tickets were a little skeptical. They said they would regret it for the rest of their lives. Is it so good-looking?Is it so shocking?
"No exaggeration, no exaggeration at all, this is the world's first true 3D movie." Another audience member who watched it said with admiration in his eyes, "Every frame of "The Wandering Earth" is a technological revolution. It’s truly breathtaking! A perfect audio-visual feast.”

"Director Lu, they are all praising "The Wandering Earth"." Liu Shishi was very happy, and his eyes were arrogant. Director Lu from "The Wandering Earth" was right next to him.

I even made an appointment to watch "The Wandering Earth", just me and Director Lu. How lucky I must be.

"Then I have to buy a ticket quickly. I heard that tickets within three days have been sold out." The audience in line had already made up their minds. They must see it, no matter how expensive it is.

"Three days? All the tickets for the five days are gone now. Three days is the morning." As he said this, the spectator in line looked at the long queue in front, wondering when it would be his turn. Own.

"No matter how long it takes, you must watch it. It's really worth it." The audience who had watched it at this time said with respect in their eyes as if they were facing gods. "Fortunately, we have Director Lu. The world's first 3D movie was ours. The director directs it, and the excitement and video impact of "The Wandering Earth" are definitely the best in the world and an epoch-making movie."

"Yes, after "The Wandering Earth", the structure of the film industry will definitely undergo huge changes." Another person took over and said loudly: "Who said Hollywood is the center of world cinema? As soon as "The Wandering Earth" came out, our country, China, It has also become a world cinema center. In the future, "The Wandering Earth" will be a 3D movie feast that can never be avoided."

"You are absolutely right. I feel that "The Wandering Earth" is a movie that Hollywood may not necessarily be able to surpass." Audiences who have watched it all agreed, "This is Director Lu, who has directed countless classic and best-selling movies. With "The Wandering Earth", Director Lu's influence in the film industry will reach the highest level in history."

"Director Lu, our movie show is about to start, do we want to go in and watch?" Liu Shishi asked, suddenly feeling a little disappointed.

I want Director Lu to ask me to watch a movie.

Isn’t it a date with yourself, but to see the audience’s reaction.

"Six hundred is spent, of course you have to go and see it, otherwise the money wouldn't be thrown into the water." Lu Chen joked.

"Well~ Director Lu, let's go in quickly." Liu Shishi instantly became happy again. He could watch a movie in the cinema with Director Lu. It would be great if the theater was reserved. There were only two of them and there were no other people in the cinema. No matter what they did, they wouldn't feel embarrassed.

……

Beiping, Fuyuan Restaurant

"Thank you!" Master Liu took the opened red wine, poured two glasses, and handed one to Lu Chen across from him, "Director Lu, "The Wandering Earth" is really beautiful. It is really a visual feast."

There was still excitement in a pair of beautiful big eyes.

Just now was the first time Liu Shishi watched "The Wandering Earth".

I have watched "The Wandering Earth" in advance, only the main creative team of "The Wandering Earth" and some well-known media reporters, Liu Shishi must not be among them.

After watching it just now, Liu Shishi felt that, as media reporters and audiences said, "The Wandering Earth" must be an epoch-making movie.

A film that set off a paradigm shift in the film industry.

Lu Chen shook the wine glass to make the red wine taste better, and was about to tell Master Liu about the new movie.

At this time, a voice came from the side.

"After we finish eating, we will watch "The Wandering Earth"." The passenger next to him looked at the news about "The Wandering Earth" on his mobile phone, "I have decided that watching "The Wandering Earth" will be a must-have during my National Day trip to Peking. Select items.”

"You have to watch it in Peiping. Peking has the best IMAX theater." A fellow traveler took over and said, "A netizen on the Tianya Forum said that to watch "The Wandering Earth" you have to watch it in an IMAX theater. This is for IMAX movies." A movie tailor-made for the theater.”

"If we want to see it, we have to eat it quickly. We're afraid that all the scalpers' tickets have been sold out in the past few days. By the time we leave Peiping, we still haven't been able to see it." Another companion expressed his opinion, "Now on the forum, there are people everywhere. Praising "The Wandering Earth", tickets are getting harder and harder to buy, especially IMAX theater tickets."

As these people said, they hurriedly finished their meal and paid, then left, heading to the largest IMAX theater in Peiping.

Lu Chen heard these tourists say that watching "The Wandering Earth" is a must-see item during the National Day trip to Peking. He thought of "Lust, Caution", which was released in 07. On September 9 last year, "Lust, Caution" was held in Xiangjiang. Released.

It's the National Day holiday.

Because it hasn't been released in the Mainland yet, and it must be a deleted version in the Mainland.

Therefore, some of the rich ladies who travel to Hong Kong go there specifically for "Lust, Caution". Tony Leung Chaowei had a sacrificial appearance in "Lust, Caution", and the rich ladies loved it the most.

"Lust, Caution" was also released in mainland theaters on November 11 of the same year. The heroine Tang Wei was banned from starring in "Lust, Caution" due to her sacrifice.

It can be said that Tang Wei's film and television career is over.

At that time, in order to continue acting in movies, Tang Wei found Mars Film and Television, the most influential film company in the mainland. She was willing to give everything and sell herself to Mars Film and let Mars Film and Television come forward to help her. She didn't want her film and television career to end like this.

But Lu Chen must not know this.

There is no way a company can keep such a trivial matter to itself.

This is what Tong Liyan told herself. Tong Liyan and Tang Wei both graduated from Chinese opera, and they probably wanted to help Tang Wei.

At that time, Lu Chen looked at Tong Liyan's face and met with Tang Wei alone.

I gave Tang Wei an idea: transfer his identity to Xiangjiang, then stay quiet for a year or two, and then come out to act in movies after the storm has passed.

Lu Chen was willing to help Tang Wei because he saw that Tang Wei was willing to accept all conditions. In the future, most of the salary and other income will belong to the company.

"Director Lu, I believe that "The Wandering Earth" will definitely create a historical box office record in the Mainland." When Liu Shishi spoke, his tone and expression were confident.

I have watched "The Wandering Earth" and I am sure of it.

"Let's not talk about "The Wandering Earth". I'm here today to tell you something." Lu Chen asked Liu Shishi out just to tell her about the new movie and get her ready.

"Director Lu, I'm ready." Master Liu was breathing rapidly and was very excited. He felt that Director Lu was going to confess to him and that he could finally fall in love with Director Lu.

I have been waiting for this day for too long.
