At the beginning of the game, he played the role of the chief, and it is recommended to strictly inv

Chapter 185 was released for three days and exploded overseas!
On the third day after "The Wandering Earth" was released, Lin Ye returned to Shanghai from Xiangjiang to meet with Director Guo Fan and the others.

Now, the entire crew is elated.

From the beginning of the team's establishment to the time when the funding was cut off, everyone questioned the project and what they did at that time.

Now, in just three days after its release, the box office of "The Wandering Earth" has exceeded 10 billion!

This kind of market response encouraged everyone in the team.

Not only do they feel that the box office of one billion is very high, they even feel that they can reach the box office of 30 billion!
"Brother Lin!"

Wu Jing took out Hua Zi and offered to pass cigarettes to Lin Ye.

"Oh, Brother Jing, you've all smoked Hua Zi?"

"That's right, you still have vision, let me invest in "The Wandering Earth" and it's not a loss!"

Lin Ye smiled, it's not just a loss, you're earning money, okay?
"By the way, Brother Jing, how much did you vote for?"

Lin Ye inquired.

Wu Jing didn't hide it either, and told Lin Ye truthfully: "One hundred million."

"That's not because I have vision. No matter how discerning I am, it's impossible for you to invest [-] million yuan. It must be that you think "The Wandering Earth" is okay, right?"

"Hahahaha!"

Wu Jing laughed out loud when he heard this.

"Yeah, when I saw you were so serious and worked hard, it was very similar to last year when I filmed Wolf Warriors. I think this group of people is unusual. If what they do is successful, it will definitely cause a sensation in the industry. , So I invested a lot of money, invested [-] million, what about you, Lin Ye, how much did you invest?"

Lin Ye laughed and said, "Hey, I invested [-] million."

Brother Wu Jing's complexion was not good at the moment.

Damn, why did you invest [-] million?
He quickly asked Guo Fan: "How much is our total investment for this film?"

Guo Fan replied: "No more, no less, one billion."

Wu Jing immediately counted and murmured: "Lin Ye invested 20 million, so the rate of return is [-]%."

"Now the box office is one billion, how come you got half of it back?"

Lin Ye nodded, agreeing with his calculation: "Yes, you are the same, you have paid back half of the money."

"Oh, you two, stop comparing and comparing."

Guo Fan persuaded: "You can earn as much as you should. The important thing is that people watch the movie. The day of Chinese science fiction movies has come."

"In the past two days, I have been watching the Internet. Many foreign media and foreign netizens have commented on our movie. Have you all watched it?"

Lin Ye shook his head, and Wu Jing even cursed, "Our Chinese movies, why join in the fun with foreigners? They still need their evaluation?"

"It's all good reviews."

Guo Fan added.

"Let's see, what did they say?"

Wu Jing immediately leaned forward and asked Guo Fan to show him the reviews on the external network.

Guo Fan smiled and handed the phone to Lin Ye.

"Lin Ye, you can translate for him."

"Row."

Lin Ye couldn't hide the fact that she was proficient in multiple languages.

Now everyone in the circle knows that his language talent is very strong.

Not only Thai, Japanese, but also English is a cinch.

Lin Ye opened the promotional video of "The Wandering Earth" on Youtube, and the comments below were all in English.

He read while translating.

"This netizen from India said that it is better to believe that Chinese people can save the earth than to believe that microwave ovens can save the earth!"

Lin Ye looked at Guo Fan with doubts.

The latter immediately explained: "Is this considered a good review? It overturned his imagination."

Lin Ye continued to read: "This netizen from the United States said that I am an avid fan of Liu Cixin. This movie really restores the plot in the novel. The story and plot also inherit Liu Cixin's literary temperament. It’s really beyond my imagination that people can make such a level of science fiction.”

"Comments from netizens in Faguo, taking the earth to wander, such a romantic sci-fi idea, I have to admire the imagination of the Chinese people."

"Huaxia's aerospace technology is actually at the leading level in the world. It is within my expectation that they can make such a powerful sci-fi movie, and I am deeply attracted by the 'community with a shared future for mankind' in the movie!"

"Finally, you don't have to watch Hollywood monopolize the sci-fi movie market. Come on! I support Huaxia!"

"It is different from traditional sci-fi movies. When I watched it, I realized the unique culture of the Chinese nation. This movie was made for their own people to watch. Please don't hate it if you don't like it. You guys A country that has the ability to make such a sci-fi movie, or give birth to a sci-fi giant like Liu Cixin!"

"I have been to China. Their oriental culture is deeply rooted in their souls for their homes and land. Their nostalgia for their homeland has even reached the point of stubbornness. It may be this kind of culture that makes them come up with, The genius idea of ​​taking the earth to wander, admire it!"

I read a lot of reviews, some like it and some don't.

Lin Ye got a key message from it.

That is, "The Wandering Earth" still has overseas markets!
In other words, in addition to the domestic box office, they also have global box office revenue!

"Director Guo, what did you think after reading these comments?"

Lin Ye asked the director.

He took the mobile phone returned by Lin Ye, and slowly said: "Their comments reminded me of the time when the project was first established. At that time, I read almost all of Liu's books, and I read every one of them."

"At that time, there were three novels by Liu, "The Wandering Earth", "The Micro Era" and "The Supernova Era", which could be made into science fiction. At that time, my first instinct was that if I chose one of the three, it must be "The Wandering Earth". After thinking about it carefully, it can only be "The Wandering Earth."

"why?"

Lin Ye asked.

"Because this story can be loaded into the near future, and I think "The Wandering Earth" has a cool sense of form, although I couldn't explain why it was cool at the time, I just thought it was really important to push the earth out of the solar system. It's cool, but I don't know why it's cool."

"I didn't realize this reason until I read the evaluations on the Internet."

"Oh?"

"In the eyes of Americans, this thing is not only cool, but also very peculiar. It turns out that it really belongs to the cultural core of our Chinese people. It is our deep affection for the land and our homeland, which leads us to escape. You have to bring "home" with you."

"The so-called home does not refer to the earth we present physically, but a pile of stones, a physical space such as the six walls of a house."

"When you bought this house, it represented your family, wife, children and even the way your mother-in-law looked at you."

"This is our Chinese understanding of home, it is definitely not a physical space."

"When we push the earth away, what we push away is definitely not a physical stone, what we push away is our home, all our emotional carriers."

"This thing is not Western, it is especially Chinese."

"So the source of its coolness is given to us by our culture, and it is particularly peculiar in the eyes of foreigners."

After listening to director Guo Fan's explanation, Lin Ye and Wu Jing suddenly realized.

He explained it too well, which is why Chinese people are so excited and shocked after watching "The Wandering Earth".

It is not only shocking on the sci-fi scene, but also shocking because of the "sci-fi core" of this special Chinese culture!
