Chapter 700: Hot sale on the first day

In the atmosphere of national celebration, the New Year's Eve of 2019 passed like this.

Beijing, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

A bright red Porsche Cayenne was parked downstairs in a high-end residential area in the Second Ring Road.

Not long after, a slim figure came out of the building, wearing a light brown woolen coat and a round lady's hat. She walked elegantly to the red Cayenne, opened the door and got in the car.

"You're already here, why don't you go upstairs and sit for a while?" The beautiful woman who got into the passenger seat asked while fastening her seat belt.

"It's a bit embarrassing to ask you to come out during the Chinese New Year and leave your family alone to take care of the children."

There is also a beautiful girl in the driver's seat, who is Tiantian who attended the Spring Festival Gala yesterday.

She bought a ticket for the movie "The Wandering Earth" in the afternoon of her first year of junior high school, and went out to watch it with her best friend Ying'er.

"What's the matter? After having a baby at home for more than a year, I became a little depressed.

Fu Xinbo hopes that I will go out more often."

Ying'er and Jingtian met very early, and they have always been very good friends.

She graduated from the Chinese Opera Department of Acting and has been in the industry for nearly 10 years. However, she is less famous than the "unpopular Jingtian", and is only in the third or fourth tier.

A small-budget film and television drama can barely cast a female protagonist, while a slightly larger investment can only provide a supporting role.

In August 2017, Yinger made her relationship public with her boyfriend Fu Xinbo, and gave birth to a beautiful daughter in February of the next year. It has been exactly one year now.

"You're going to start working again after the New Year, right?" Jingtian started the car and drove to the movie theater he had booked.

"Yes, I wasn't famous originally, but now that I haven't had any works or exposure for more than a year, I've almost lost track of this person.

The agency has given me a variety show to record next month, so I can show off my face first." Ying'er nodded.

"I didn't expect you to get married and have children so soon. My husband is a nice person."

Jingtian also knows Ying'er's husband Fu Xinbo. When she was filming "Legend of Ban Shu", he played the second male lead in it.

“I didn’t expect it myself, I can only say it was fate and destiny.

To be honest, I didn’t think my husband was that good at first, I don’t know what I thought at the time, I was getting married and having children in my prime years.”

"You're getting an advantage and still behave yourself. I'm so kind to you."

"It's not bad, he doesn't have anything. If he treats me badly again, why did I marry him in the first place?" Ying'er said with a slightly raised corner of her mouth, a little arrogantly.

"By the way, when will the TV series you mentioned before be released?"

"March 8~" Jingtian, who was driving, replied casually.

"Women's Day"

I feel that Tiantian you will definitely be popular this time.

That was Gu Wei, known as the "domestic entertainment daddy", and the actresses he worked with were all famous.

After your TV series is aired, your traffic will definitely increase and you will become famous! "

Jingtian told her about the filming of "Si Teng" very early on, and Ying'er has also been paying attention to the drama "Good Girlfriends".

"I don't care that much now whether it's popular or not. I just hope the audience likes my work." Jingtian said lightly.

"You're getting an advantage and acting like a good boy. That's why you said that because you knew you would be popular~"

"No way~"

"Honestly, how do you feel about filming with Gu Wei?" Ying'er turned her head and looked at Da Tiantian with a gossipy look on her face.

"How does it feel?"

"Are you pretending to be stupid? That's Gu Wei, the best in domestic entertainment!

Handsome, in good shape, a big boss, young and wealthy.

Female stars in many circles hope to film movies with him.

Didn't you mention before that you two played a couple in "Si Teng"? After working together for more than two months, didn't you feel anything at all?

I do not believe."

"How does it feel? It's just filming, it's all work.

But we are really good friends.

A few days ago, I posted on Weibo to help promote his new movie, and today I came to see you because I wanted to watch [The Wandering Earth]." Jingtian gave a very official explanation.

She really wanted to call herself Gu Wei's girlfriend, but it wasn't appropriate given their current relationship.

"good friend?

If someone with Gu Wei's conditions had the opportunity to contact him, there would be no store like this after passing this village.

He perfectly meets all my criteria for choosing a mate, a true Prince Charming!

If I could become Gu Wei's girlfriend, I would be willing to do anything." Ying'er held her chin in her hands and looked forward.

"Wake up, stop being such an idiot, your mouth is drooling.

If you say this, you won't be afraid that your family will be jealous, since they are all mothers.

Don't forget that when you go out to play, they are still at home looking after your daughter," Da Tiantian reminded helplessly.

"I think about it, it's not okay. Being a mother can also have idols. Song Dandan said that Zhao Zhongxiang is her idol. It's not normal for me to like Gu Wei.

By the way, I have watched a lot of his TV series in the past two years when I gave birth to a baby at home.

[Do You Know], which is currently on the air, I am following it every day.

Originally, I thought Minglan and Gu Tingye were a perfect match, but you are my best friend. After [Si Teng] is aired, I will change your relationship with Gu Wei! "

"thank you."

The two of them walked and chatted, and soon they arrived at their destination.

Jingtian parked the car in the underground garage, and the two of them put on masks and came out, waiting for the elevator to go upstairs.

"Actually, I don't think I need to wear a mask now. No one can recognize me," Ying'er said with some melancholy.

"Don't be sentimental. You are such a beautiful woman. If you don't wear a mask, you will attract everyone's attention."

"Haha, Tiantian, you are right. You are beautiful. Even if you are not famous, you still have this face." Ying Er was like a child, her mood changed from time to time. When Tiantian said a word, she became happy again.

The two took the elevator to the cinema on the top floor. As soon as they went out, they saw that the lobby of the cinema was crowded with people.

"Wow, there are so many people watching movies today!"

"It's the Spring Festival. In the past two years, everyone has developed the habit of watching movies during the Spring Festival. There will be no shortage of people during the Spring Festival holiday."

The lobby of the cinema was filled with posters of several popular movies, and [The Wandering Earth] was in the center.

Gu Wei was wearing a red protective suit and was in the middle of the poster. On the left and right were Zhao Jinmai, who was wearing the same outfit, and Wu Jing, who was wearing a white space suit. Wu Mengda, Li Guangjie, Meng Ziyi and others were behind the three.

"I feel that you must have a special relationship with Gu Wei, otherwise why would you come to support his movie on the first day of the Chinese New Year?" Ying Er stood in front of the huge poster of "The Wandering Earth" and looked at the characters on it. "But then again, Gu Wei is really handsome. Even with a shaved head and such an ugly protective suit, he is still so eye-catching."

"Don't sigh, I'll go get the tickets, and you don't sit around, go buy some water and snacks."

"Oh, okay."

In the bustling movie theater, the two big stars wearing masks to exchange tickets and buy things did not attract attention.

Not long after, Jing Tian and Ying Er lined up to enter and sat at the back of the theater.

"What are you going to do after watching the movie?" After sitting down, Ying Er took off her coat and put it on her legs.

"Go shopping in the mall and then have a meal, how about it?"

"Then it's settled."

The theater was full of audiences, adults, the elderly, children, and all ages.

Why are there so many comedies during the Spring Festival? It's because during this 7-day holiday, many audiences come to watch movies as families.

Comedy films are suitable for all ages and are suitable for the whole family to watch.

The lights in the theater went out, and the big screen showed the earth from far to near, from the starry sky to a beach by the sea.

"Grandpa, what is hydrogen?"

"Hydrogen is the fuel for Dad to drive a big rocket."

In front of a bonfire, Wu Jing held the child and Wu Mengda sitting on a portable picnic bench, with a tent and an off-road vehicle behind them.

"Liu Qi, when one day you can see Jupiter without a telescope, Dad will be back."

"Where are you going?"

"Dad has to carry out a mission, the most important mission in the world!"

The child fell asleep, and Wu Jing continued to explain to Wu Mengda.

"After I leave, you will be Liu Qi's only guardian. You can directly obtain the qualification to live in the underground city without drawing lots. This is also the only way for you and Liu Qi to live."

After the two finished speaking, the camera switched and the narration sounded: At first, no one cared about this disaster. It was just a wildfire, a drought, the extinction of a species, and the disappearance of a city.

Nearly 4 minutes of narration and images let everyone understand the background of the story of "The Wandering Earth".

The sun is rapidly expanding and aging. In a hundred years, it will engulf the entire earth. In three hundred years, the solar system will no longer exist.

In order to cope with this catastrophe, mankind has shown unprecedented unity. The United Government decided to build 10,000 planetary engines to push the earth out of the solar system and fly to a new home 4.2 light years away.

At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of the voyage, the United Government gathered global forces and spent 30 years to build the "Navigator" International Space Station.

Faced with the increasingly harsh surface environment, everyone in the world draws lots to enter the underground city equipped with planetary engines to get the qualification to survive...

This plot is very flat, but it is indispensable to the whole film. Some shots at the beginning also set the tone for the visual effects of the whole film.

"Oh my god, it's magnificent. This special effect has never been seen in previous domestic films.

The sun, the earth, the planetary engine, the International Space Station, and the digital underground city.

As long as the subsequent movies maintain this level of special effects, this movie will be a god!"

In the theater, watching the various grand shots on the big screen, some viewers talked in a low voice.

"Gu Wei hasn't appeared yet, Wu Jing showed his face first. Look at the poster. The kid Liu Qi is Gu Wei when he was a child.

It's right to watch the movie of these two people."

After the background was explained, the four big words [The Wandering Earth] appeared, and the feature film officially began.

Time flies. Seventeen years later, Liu Qi has grown up and Gu Wei has officially appeared.

Liu Qi, who lost his mother at a young age and whose father was far away, was raised by his grandfather. He could not help but feel resentment towards his father whom he had not seen for 17 years. With a yearning for the world above, he secretly left the underground city with his sister Han Duoduo and successfully came to the surface of the earth.

"Han Ziang, senior driver, the Third Transportation Committee of Beijing reminds you that there are thousands of roads, and safety is the first. If you drive irregularly, your loved ones will shed tears."

In a world covered with ice and snow, Gu Wei took Zhao Jinmai to start his grandfather's transport vehicle, and a prompt sound sounded on the console.

"Haha~ This sentence will definitely become one of the golden sentences of this movie," Ying Er said softly while holding a popcorn bucket.

Jing Tian beside him also nodded, always feeling that this line was a bit brainwashing.

The camera changes as the two protagonists move forward. The world of ice and snow, various futuristic heavy machinery, and huge planetary engines that spray flames make the audience in the theater stunned and completely shocked by the special effects in the film.

In fact, the special effects of "The Wandering Earth" are not better than those of Hollywood science fiction blockbusters, and are even relatively rough in many aspects.

However, because it is a domestic science fiction movie, the audience's expectations are actually very low, and they are naturally surprised to see the unexpected big scenes in the end.

The two little ones were caught and put in the detention center as expected when they stole the carrier.

Grandpa Wu Mengda went to redeem the people, but he was also put in the same place when he failed to bribe.

On the navigator space station, Wu Jing was about to retire, but the space station issued an alarm. The Earth's flight trajectory was affected by the gravity of Jupiter, the probability of collision increased, and the global planetary engines failed one after another.

On the ground, during the earthquake, the three protagonists escaped from the detention center. They originally wanted to return to the underground city, but they met the rescue team led by Li Guangjie, who took Liu Qi and his party to the Hangzhou underground city to restart the planetary engine.

The group trudged through the difficult journey. The grandfather played by Wu Mengda died in an elevator shaft accident. From the character's inner monologue, the audience learned that Han Duoduo was his adopted child.

Gu Wei and Zhao Jinmai shouted hoarsely and were heartbroken, and many moviegoers also had red eyes.

There is nothing "old" in this revised plot. Although Liu Qi, played by Gu Wei, is rebellious, he has always respected his grandfather who raised him.

Wu Mengda's performance is undoubtedly outstanding. He interprets the image of an elder who devotes his whole heart to his grandchildren vividly. This sacrifice naturally earned a lot of tears from the audience.

So far, the movie has entered the second half.

After a short rest, everyone learned that the earth is about to fall into Jupiter, and there are seven days left for the entire earth to be destroyed.

And the time left for mankind may be less than a day, because as the distance to Jupiter is shortened, the atmosphere will soon be drained and everyone will die.

When everyone is desperate, after communicating with Wu Jing who is far away in the space station, Liu Qi thinks of a way to save the earth.

Go to Sulawesi No. 3 engine to ignite the planetary engine, thereby igniting Jupiter, and use the shock wave to push the earth out of Jupiter's gravity.

"Wang Lei, the shock wave of Jupiter's explosion can push the earth away from Jupiter.

Come on, let's ignite Jupiter!" In the wind and snow, Gu Wei, wearing a red protective suit, shouted to the captain of the rescue team who had given up in the distance.

".Oh my god, it's on fire!"

"There will always be someone who stands up, why not me?"

"Fuck, this explosion!"

"Special effects plus plot, I give this movie full marks, I can't believe this is a science fiction film made by Chinese people."

"I believe Gu Wei will not be wrong, this is the best movie I have seen this year!"

From the plot point of view, this part is actually a little bit of a joke. So many scientists and scholars around the world have not thought of a method that Liu Qi, a maintenance worker, thought of.

However, the audience who have already substituted the emotion will not care about this, and the subsequent plot of the movie also explains this bug.

Liu Qi's idea is not wrong, but it is not enough to ignite Jupiter, because the distance of the planetary engine ignition is not enough.

So his plan can't actually save the earth.

At the critical moment, Wu Jing, who was far away in the "Navigator" space station, decided to sacrifice himself. After separating the dormant cabin, he drove the space station to hit the planet engine flame.

The space station has 300,000 tons of fuel, and the diameter of the explosion can reach 5,000 kilometers. Ignite the space station, and you can ignite Jupiter!

".Son, I'm sorry, Dad has to go on a mission again. This is the most important person in Dad's life."

In the cockpit, Wu Jing looked at the photo of the family of three in his hand, and his eyes gradually moistened.

"You said that when I can see Jupiter, you will come back. You lied." On the ground, Gu Wei was wearing a protective suit and looking at the sky under the red sky, his voice trembling.

The estrangement and grudges between the father and son have long disappeared, and the deep affection infected every audience watching the movie.

".Since I gave birth to a child, I found that my tear point is a bit low." Ying Er looked at Wu Jing who was engulfed by flames on the big screen, and Gu Wei who was shouting silently, and took out a tissue to wipe her tears.

Da Tiantian also blew her nose.

Not to mention all the audience in the theater, more than half of them were quietly wiping tears, mostly the elderly and girls.

Jupiter was ignited, and the earth was saved.

Three years later, the brand-new Gu Wei took Zhao Jinmai to the surface and started his grandfather's transport vehicle again, but now he has become a formal driver.

". Liu Qi, junior driver, the transportation committee of the third district of Beijing reminds you that there are thousands of roads, safety is the first, driving irregularly, relatives shed tears."

". This plan will last for a hundred generations.

Although, we don't know what kind of home the new sun 4.2 light years away will bring.

But from today on, human courage and perseverance will be forever engraved under the starry sky.

This long journey of despair and hope that lasts for 2,500 years is known as the "Wandering Earth Plan" in history!"

The majestic narration ended, and the subtitles on the big screen rolled.

The lights in the theater also lit up, and all the audience seemed to be in another world.

After a long while, someone got up and walked out.

Following the crowd, Ying Er walked outside the theater, holding Jing Tian's arm.

"This movie is so cool. I haven't seen such a shocking movie in a long time.

What are you doing?"

Da Tiantian took a photo of the movie tickets with her mobile phone.

"I'll post on Weibo"

"Please, don't use such careful promotion. People who don't know think you are the heroine?"

"Just tell me whether it looks good or not?"

"nice."

"That's great, what do you want to eat later?"

"I'm still breastfeeding, let's eat something light."

"Okay, you have the final say."

For an excellent science fiction film, special effects are very important, but the plot cannot hold it back.

The simple special effects are Transformers with exploding shells, only "Peng Peng Bang Bang" fighting and various spaceships and big robots.

If according to Hollywood standards, "The Wandering Earth" can only be regarded as a qualified science fiction film.

But judging from the current situation of domestic science fiction films, "The Wandering Earth" is a groundbreaking work and a landmark film in Chinese science fiction films.

The special effects, plot, actors' acting skills, etc. have all reached a level that was difficult to reach in previous domestic science fiction films.

The most important thing is that with "The Wandering Earth", there will be a benchmark for future domestic science fiction movies.

Just compare it to whether it works or not.

The first day of the Lunar New Year in 2019 is known as the first day of the "most tragic Spring Festival in history".

[The Wandering Earth] relied on the fame of Gu Wei and Wu Jing to get a box office of 354 million, far exceeding the original 200 million on the first day, ranking second in the box office of the movie on that day.

[Crazy Alien], with its high film schedule and high publicity, has a box office of 378 million, ranking first.

[Flying Life] ranked third with 285 million, and [New King of Comedy] ranked fourth with 274 million.

The remaining films such as "Integrity", "Detective Pu Songling", "Bear Bears: Primitive Era", and "Peppa Pig Celebrating the New Year" did not have a box office of over 100 million on the first day, and they were basically around 50 or 60 million.

According to Maoyan data, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the total box office of the mainland movie market exceeded 1.5 billion, setting a new domestic single-day box office record!
