China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 395 Mount Olympus

Beijing Guoying International Cinema.

Wu Heng looked at the hall filled with audiences, media reporters, and the most crowded booth built by BYD - where the film creators were being interviewed.

It's full of déjà vu.

More than a year ago, the same theater screened "Gravity", that dazzling night, the space movie that created the history of special effects movies in China's heavy industry.

There are movie posters and... BYD promotional posters everywhere.

"Tsk tsk, I think byd just moved the car with him."

A mocking voice came from the side.

He was accompanied by his friend Ding Wei, who is also a fan of science fiction movies.

Wu Heng is currently one of the most popular film and television commentators on station C and has many fans. Ding Wei is his fan, and then he became his netizen and even his friend.

Although "The Martian" still has shocking visual spectacles, its style seems to have changed a lot compared to "The Center of the Earth". Although there is no information indicating the era in which the movie takes place, it is obviously a movie much further away than "The Center of the Earth".

era.

Although it is not as shocking as the space station being destroyed by satellite debris in "Gravity", it still made the audience hold their breath. Destruction and destruction have always been visual spectacles that can mobilize adrenaline.

"The style is very different from "Gravity"." Ding Wei chatted softly with Wu Heng.

Ding Wei scoffed at this: "Byd is engaged in aerospace?"

Of course, you must be at a distance, just like looking at Mount Everest from a distance, otherwise you will be "only in this mountain".

Let the withered yellow ground show a strange color.

“What’s the picture of a car seller sponsoring the premiere of “The Martian”?”

And there are many precision instruments on it. Once an applause occurs, all astronauts will be lost on Mars.

Wu Heng strongly suspected that this guy deliberately approached him just to get tickets for the movie premiere.

Under the IMAX+3D technology, it presses towards the audience with a majestic sense of oppression.

Shortly after Wu Heng and Ding Wei took their seats, the premiere officially began.

It’s hard to say that Chen Jingxing’s space trilogy will be regarded as a series of movies.

"Mount Olympus!" Ding Wei said in surprise after being shocked.

Even if the thrusters to adjust the attitude are activated, it cannot be sustained for a long time.

Two feet fell from the sky, shaking up dust and stones, and appeared in the picture.

Just like "Tang Detective II" is to "Tang Detective", the accumulated influence and reputation of the previous work will delay or even amplify the momentum of the sequel.

And although he feels that BYD's sponsorship of "Matrix II" has somewhat lowered the style of the movie, if the cars that appear in "Matrix II" are BYD's logo... well, it will really improve the brand image.

The animation logos of DreamWorks and China Film Group passed quickly.

"Almost, Yinghuo 4th... then their trip should be Yinghuo 3rd. There must be two more people ahead. Flying to Mars is much farther and more difficult than the moon. We still have to wait for the right time. There will be at least 10 seconds between missions.

Four or five years, at least after 2040." Ding Wei is indeed a science fiction fan, and obviously knows a lot about space knowledge, and is much more hard-core than Wu Heng, a fan who just likes to watch movies and TV shows.

Wu Heng replied casually while squeezing through the crowd towards the theater where they were sitting: "Didn't you say that BYD had any cooperation with some launch vehicle researcher before? And he also invested in a private aerospace company? And didn't he sponsor "The Matrix" before?

Ⅱ"? It’s said that Chen Jingxing built a highway while filming a movie and destroyed hundreds of cars, so he has a good relationship with DreamWorks."

In "Gravity" Lei Jiayin rescued Wu Yue, in "The Martian" Lei Jiayin was the protagonist and the one who was rescued.

"The Matrix", with its unique aesthetic style and epoch-making high concepts, has a very high-profile image among audiences and fans. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many companies, especially car companies, who swarmed when they heard that Chen Jingxing would use cars for filming.

I ran up to sponsor.

The commander played by Wu Yue decisively issued the order to evacuate Mars.

Since "Gravity", coupled with the launch of China's Tiangong-2 experimental space station and "The Martian"'s bundled promotion of the Mars exploration plan, China has set off a wave of space fever.

"Mars" is not as strong as last year's "The Center of the Earth" in terms of publicity and distribution, and it does not use the trailer marketing that DreamWorks is good at, but its influence and film schedule are higher than that of "The Center of the Earth".

The premiere of "The Martian" was divided into three IMAX halls, and entertainers, industry insiders, film critics, media, and fans were separated.

Except Lei Jiayin.

There was a burst of laughter in the theater, because the vague music in the astronaut's mask was the divine song that was very popular when a short video platform was first launched last year.

Then a long and thin antenna knocked Lei Jiayin away.

Whether it is the blue light emitted by the setting sun under the thin atmosphere of Mars, or the sudden rise of the gable, it is a strong and strange visual spectacle, as if it is a movie to the audience.

What made the situation even worse was that the huge Mars launch vehicle rocket began to lose its posture and began to topple under a storm exceeding 175kph.

This is also an expression of his acclaimed artistry.

No matter how much Commander Ren shouted, there was no response from the mask.

"It's the machine that's drilling. If some Martian life is killed, it's not my fault, it's the machine's fault..."

That’s why Wu Heng and Ding Wei were able to have such a good position this time. You must know that the number of people attending the premiere this time, whether they are celebrities, industry bosses or audience fans, is more than that of "Gravity".

It's not a mountain, it's a mountain wall!

A wall suddenly appears in the picture.

It rises from the ground, so high that it covers half of the sky, and goes infinitely far to the left and right.

Combined with the alien style of Mars, the visual spectacle, and the relaxed conversations between the astronauts, there is a unique and heart-warming humor.

"You have complained about this many times. It may be Yinghuosi's mission. It has nothing to do with us. The mission still has more than twenty days. You can admire Mount Olympus as much as you want. You will never have the chance to climb it in your life.

The crater."

In the darkness, the main communication dish was blown off the base, wrapped in the storm, and rushed into the receiving antenna array.

A feeling of a different world came over me.

"I think we should land on Mount Olympus. Didn't satellites observe that liquid water flows down the crater in summer?"

The sudden Martian storm not only interrupted the mission they were performing, but also forced them to return to the habitat cabin.

Among other astronauts, Lei Jiayin's vital signs suddenly changed, the air pressure dropped to zero, and then the biochemical signals were interrupted.

Ding Wei is indeed a very hard-core science fiction fan, but he does not have the energy to explain to Wu Heng in detail: "The highest mountain on Mars!"

The storm outside shone with metallic luster and even had some sparks, making the audience feel frightened for the astronauts who had taken refuge in the habitat cabin.

It doesn't mean that you don't need to advertise because you are famous. The invisible image improvement that "The Matrix" can bring to the brand is something that ordinary advertising cannot achieve.

The relaxed atmosphere did not last long. The sudden arrival of a storm not only created a new audio-visual spectacle, but also made the audience in the theater tense.

Especially what Lei Jiayin said about "the shame of our post-10 generation".

Mount Olympus?

Wu Heng and the surrounding audience were a little confused when they heard this sentence.

Olympus Mons is not only the highest mountain in the solar system, with an altitude of more than 20,000 meters, but the highest point is 25,000 meters above sea level, which is nearly three times that of Mount Everest.

"Porous rock is still easy to drill. I think we should be able to reach saline-alkali aquifers here."

Then the camera slowly rotated nearly 180 degrees, and exclamations reached Wu Heng's ears from all around.

Although Chen Jingxing and DreamWorks have been saying that "Mars" and "The Center of the Earth" are not the same story, everyone knows that Chen Jingxing will make a space trilogy, and Lei Jiayin and Wu Yue will continue to star in "Mars".

"Mars" naturally followed the popularity of "The Center of the Earth".

Doesn’t it make you look taller if you have something to do with aerospace?

Moreover, the two of them do have a common language. They both like science fiction and similar types of film and television works. Unfortunately, this fan netizen is of the wrong gender.

The reason is very simple. In everyone's eyes, "Mars" is the sequel to "The Center of the Earth".

"In the front, in the eighth row, the seats are better this time." Wu Heng and Ding Wei happily found themselves in the middle of the IMAX auditorium: "Who knows? Maybe it's for the brand image?"

For Wu Heng and Ding Wei, the development of the plot was not unexpected. "The Martian" is completely different from "The Matrix" and more like "The Center of the Earth".

This mission was originally scheduled to last a month, and they had only been on Mars for six days.

"Fuck..." Ding Wei, who was sitting next to him, held on to his 3D glasses and unconsciously moved his body backwards, looking up at the big screen in shock.

"Why did you say such cruel things?"

Not only has the official aerospace industry gained greater exposure, some private companies under the banner of aerospace are also quite active, and many companies, including Internet companies, have also joined in investment.

There are also conversations between astronauts and between astronauts and the ground at the beginning of "Gravity", but it feels more serious, closer to the style of the current Chinese aerospace industry, and paired with shocking shots of space and the earth, the style looks very poetic and quiet.

, as deep as space.

Wu Heng nodded: "Indeed, the tone seems to be more relaxed."

"Can you stop the music? Lin Zihan, it's hard to imagine that you are born after 10 years. Your music aesthetic is simply a shame for us born after 10 years..."

"Be gentle, if you harm the Martian microorganisms that may be inside the porous rock, you will bear the sins of alien life..."

The astronauts left the habitat cabin, braved the storm of sparks and lightning, and walked to the launch vehicle.

And the steepness of the foot of the mountain is rarely matched in the solar system, and is even better than the straight walls of the moon's sea of ​​clouds.

Wu Heng speculated: "The post-10 generation...should be at least 40 years later, right?"

When the worst happens, Lei Jiayin has no hope of survival in the eyes of everyone, except of course viewers like Wu Heng.

To be honest, although this car company is considered good among domestic car companies, its brand image is indeed weak. This kind of thing cannot be established overnight.

Mount Olympus is a shield volcano, like a shield. The slope above the mountainside is very gentle, like a gradually rising plateau, while the foot of the mountain is relatively steep.

Whether it's true or not, it looks like everything is in competition.

The cold sunset casts a bluish light on the distant horizon.

But there is no mystery in terms of the plot. Just from the name of the movie, you can tell that it is the Martian version of "Gravity", and this joke was used in the promotion:

"This is called retro style..."

However, seeing how generous this "big fan" was in charging himself, he did not investigate whether he had "ulterior motives."

However, Wu Heng himself is not very optimistic about this. In his opinion, byd's investment in aerospace is nothing more than taking advantage of the aerospace boom to improve its brand image.

"Already ready!"

"Commander!... Do you want to take off?"

"……ignition!"

In the chaos of war, the stubby Mars launch vehicle rocket burst into flames and then rose from the ground.
