c887 The Wandering Earth

The grassland lasts four months.

When Luo Xun and others finished their trip to the grassland, it was already December. Even so, Luo Xun’s mission was not over yet. He took the crew to the United States to shoot some scenes. Although the American scenes only accounted for a quarter of the movie One or so, but it’s an important part of making sure the movie isn’t monotonous.

But compared to drafting the original.

When filming in the United States, time is not so tight and the tasks are not so heavy. Luo Xun can occasionally do other things. Of course, there is no chance to go out for a walk. The crew still cannot do without him. Whatever he wants to do, he can’t do it. I can only do it on the set.

Turns out he actually had a plan.

His plan is to prepare for his next movie. Yes, “The Secret of the Dragon” has not yet been released, Luo Xun is already thinking about the subject of his next movie, and he already has a goal——

To be precise, two goals!

One of these two goals is “The Wandering Earth” and the other is “Wolf Warrior 2”. Both of them can be filmed, but the order must be determined, because the time it takes to shoot a movie can often take half a year or even a year. Luo Xun’s decision will directly determine where he will do next year!

Think before and after.

Luo Xun finally decided to shoot “The Wandering Earth” first. With the help of the Hollywood special effects team, he didn’t have to worry about the special effects part. Besides, domestic science fiction movies are really unsatisfactory. Under such circumstances, Luo Xun also hopes that he can stand up. , giving the country more confidence in science fiction movies!

This is important.

Another reason is that Luo Xun’s touch is still there. “The Secret of the Dragon” is a movie mainly focused on special effects. After making this movie, he will continue to make special effects in the next movie. Luo Xun can easily get used to it.

In fact.

Luo Xun had the idea of ​​laying the foundation for “The Wandering Earth” when making the decision to shoot “The Secret of the Dragon”. He didn’t dare to touch it directly, so he took a curve to save the country. Moreover, “The Secret of the Dragon” itself is also an excellent commercial film. , and even Luo Xun personally thinks that it is the best filmed one in the tomb robbing genre.

Just like the promotion said.

This is the authentic gold-touching style!

Now that he has made a decision, there is no need to worry too much about what needs to be done next. Luo Xun took advantage of the light workload of the crew and began to take time out at night to write the outline of the script for “The Wandering Earth”——

The outline is not complicated.

Luo Xun just briefly described the outline of “The Wandering Earth” in words: “In the near future, scientists have discovered that the sun is rapidly aging and expanding. Within five hundred years, the entire galaxy, including the earth, will be engulfed by the sun. In order to save the earth, Humanity has proposed a bold plan called the Wandering Earth, which is to use global efforts to build tens of thousands of engines and steering engines on the surface of the earth to push the earth out of the solar system and rush to another habitat in 2,500 years. Chinese astronaut Liu Peiqiang went to the International Space Station when his son Liu Qi was four years old, and shouldered the important responsibility of being a navigator with his international peers. In the blink of an eye, Liu Qi grew up, and he sneaked to the surface with his sister Duoduo, and stole his grandfather Han Ziang’s transport vehicle. As a result, not only were they arrested, but they also encountered a global engine shutdown. In order to repair the engine and prevent the earth from falling into Jupiter, the world began to launch a saturation rescue operation. Even Liu Qi’s car was forced to join them. In the process of racing against time In the midst of it, countless people are working hard, risking their lives, just to continue the hope of survival for generations of descendants…”

This is “The Wandering Earth”.

It has the same characteristics as “Looking for the Dragon”.

The story of this movie is relatively weak, focusing on pictures and special effects. The whole movie is just about one thing, so just reading the text may not be so exciting, but when the movie is shot, those shots will definitely be able to be seen immediately Give the audience a powerful impact!

From visual to emotional!

In a sense, “The Secret of the Dragon” is the same. It just tells the story of tomb robbing. Most of the time is spent in the tomb, but there are all kinds of gorgeous scenes and unexpected special effects scenes during the tomb robbing process. , combined with the actors’ performances, will give the audience a certain amount of visual stimulation and psychological stimulation.

But in terms of performance…

Luo Xun couldn’t play the role of Liu Qi in “The Wandering Earth” because Liu Qi was too young. Although it was not impossible for Luo Xun to forcefully play the role of tenderness, Luo Xun himself always felt awkward, so he felt that he should play the original role of Wu Jing That role.

Liu Peiqiang in space.

It stands to reason that Liu Qi is the male lead, but Luo Xun is the director himself. Of course he can make Liu Peiqiang the male lead as well. All he needs to do is give Liu Peiqiang more of a sense of presence. Even if it doesn’t work, he has to be on the same page as Liu Qi and his son. As for the dual protagonists, in the original movie anyway, Liu Peiqiang, played by Wu Jing, had too many roles and was too important, so he already looked like a protagonist.

Interesting thing.

In the original work of “The Wandering Earth”, the protagonist is undoubtedly Liu Qi. The full text is unfolded from Liu Qi’s first perspective. The author uses words to describe what happened when he went through these five stages, while Liu Peiqiang is a The low-Earth orbit astronaut used an anti-matter bomb to destroy an asteroid in the earth’s shipping lane in the later period but unfortunately died. It can be said that Liu Peiqiang in the original work is a character who has been introduced to him. It is the adaptation of the director and screenwriter that gave Liu Peiqiang the role. The importance of the film has been infinitely increased, and the results have proved that the director and screenwriter are very prescient——

After the movie is released.

The most popular character is not the protagonist Liu Qi, but Liu Peiqiang played by Wu Jing. This is not only because Liu Qi has a youthful spirit and will do reckless things, but also because Liu Peiqiang is a character who sacrifices and takes responsibility. In the end, he used his life to exchange for the peace of the earth. At the same time, he also became an excellent father. It’s a pity that when Liu Qi began to stop hating his father, his father was gone.

“Haha.”

“I didn’t expect that I have reached the age to play someone else’s father, but this may require me to make up to look like a 40-year-old. Most of the previous movies tried to look young. I only put on a slightly mature makeup when filming “Dragon Babu.”

Luo Xun muttered in his heart.

Of course, the script of “The Wandering Earth” was written on the premise that Luo Xun would not delay the filming of “The Lost Tomb”. Fortunately, the filming of the movie has now come to an end, and it will be finished in more than a month. The scenes abroad are not particularly large.

The actors are also very relaxed.

Sometimes the crew members would ask Luo Xun for leave to travel around the United States. If the filming task was not particularly heavy, Luo Xun would usually approve the leave. After all, as a director, he was also distracted. While he was still filming one movie, he was already thinking about the next one.
