But now the film's registration has a synopsis of the story. Even if it only contains the script of "The Matrix 1", it is enough to surprise fans.
Indeed, from the brief introduction published through the filing, we can see Lin Han's ambition. This time he no longer just puts the shooting scene in a room, but extends it to all mankind. Discussions about artificial intelligence. About the savior of mankind.
This report is relatively neutral. He raised the concern on everyone's mind, that is, does Lin Han really have the ability to master the filming of three blockbusters now
"The momentum of domestic science fiction films is pretty good now. Chang'e Pictures invited me to shoot "Out of the Galaxy". What do you think?" Another person at the table asked. His name is Ji Gaoxuan. He has made many good films, so he is in good time. A director at his creative peak.
Zheng Shuping couldn't hide his proud look. A huge smile appeared on his wrinkled face: "It's not like going to Hollywood. After all, I didn't take any Hollywood movies. As for the Saturn Award, it's meaningless. What do you think? Does anyone here care about the Saturn Awards? There's not even a report."
Besides, in Zheng Shuping's resume, a Saturn Award nomination for Best Director is nothing!
It's just that his specialties are police movies and comedies. He is not qualified for this strange science fiction film, but he is not willing to let this opportunity go.
Generally speaking, the scope of nominations and the final results are for film and television works or filmmakers that are loved by the majority of movie fans. Last year, "The Martian" was also very popular in North America, so it is normal to get a nomination!
It can even be said that it refreshed their understanding of the subsequent plot!
Zheng Shuping laughed and said, "His name is Lin Han, he's a pretty good young man. The previous film "Immortality" was shot very well, the script is quite exciting, and the director's basic skills are also good. Even if I were given the same conditions, I might not be able to do it. You can shoot better than him!”
This is a continuous shooting of a movie that many well-known domestic directors dare not engage in. Even if this movie is his own original work, the difficulty level is definitely five stars!
When readers thought it was hackers vs. government agencies, the reality is that it is humans vs. artificial intelligence!
On weekends, there are a large number of foreigners flocking here, including the occasional polished, lovelorn filmmakers studying scripts, or old friends gathering, each having his or her own game.
"Isn't this a novel about a hacker? How did it turn into a war between humans and machines, and even a savior appears?"
Cui Lecheng shook the teacup slightly and said, "Old Zheng, you are amazing now. You are another one of us who has bravely entered Hollywood. I heard that you were nominated for Best Director at the Saturn Award over there?"
…
Many movies have been born here, and many stories have been circulated. A certain humble screenwriter was accidentally spotted by a big director, and a certain script was polished here bit by bit, so it can be regarded as a geomantic treasure!
There are very few people who are optimistic. Even fans who don't understand the film industry know that it is best to make movies one by one. It is too difficult to become a big fat man in one bite.
Bad money drives out good money, and they are all a little desperate for the future of movies. After the older generation passes away, can the young people support it
"Plot summary: The real world is controlled by a computer artificial intelligence system called the Matrix. People are like animals raised by the Matrix. They are trapped in the illusory world and serve as biological batteries to contribute power to the matrix. They have no freedom and thoughts. Young hacker With the help of Morpheus, Trinity and others from the human resistance organization, Neo gradually discovered the truth of the Matrix, peered into the cornerstone of the world, and finally became the savior who can save mankind after going through hardships. Neo's awakening will bring mankind and Mechanical warfare has ushered in a new era!”
Although he has a gray beard and is wearing a colorful shirt, he is actually a famous director in China. He has won awards at the Golden Rooster Awards, Golden Horse Awards, Berlin Film Festival, and Venice Film Festival, and has served as director of Tokyo Film Festival. Festival Jury Chairman.
Zheng Shuping touched the sparse beard on his chin and replied seriously: "Nowadays, science fiction movies should be very important. If the quality of the book is good, then there will be nothing else. After all, there are few movies of this type, so we should seize it. Opportunity. Anyway, Chang'e Pictures is pretty good, and they rarely give any thumbs up. You can try to get a share of the box office dividends."
There is definite news that this novel will be changed into a trilogy, and filming will start at the same time in June, with a total investment of hundreds of millions!
In a quiet courtyard house in Beijing, several middle-aged people holding tea cups or coffee are gathering together to chat, while young people not far away glance here from time to time.
Jing Yuan's identity is different from Zheng Shuping's. He is not a pure director, but also the vice president of China National Theater and a doctoral supervisor of the directing department. Therefore, he can put aside his sectarian differences with Nortel and appreciate Lin Han's Talent is not easy.
This sentence has touched everyone's heart. The economic environment a few decades ago was no better than it is now. At that time, they only wanted to make movies.
…
But Lin Han is different. Although he studied filmmaking, it is the novel series that really made him famous. Although science fiction novels have limitations, niches also have niche advantages. Readers are very loyal and rarely give up. left!
Jing Yuan paused and then said: "But I feel like Lin Han has gone astray now. His appetite is too big. He shot three movies in a row. Which of you can do it? I'm afraid that he will be ruined by this series of movies." Knocked down."
Jing Yuan, who had been silent next to him, suddenly said: "The homework I assigned to my students recently is to let them watch and analyze this movie. Lin Han is not only an excellent writer, but also an excellent screenwriter and director. Now he is finally There’s a young director who can watch.”
"China Film News" is a professional journal sponsored by the China Film Art Research Center. It uses the latest perspectives and the most accurate news to introduce the latest developments and trends in the Chinese and foreign film circles to domestic and foreign film workers and enthusiasts.
This is one of Beijing's oldest filmmakers' lairs. The tattered dark red sofas and wooden window panes reflect the Chinese elements of old Beijing. There is even a big Kang that requires sitting cross-legged. It has been here for many years.
Originally, "The Matrix" was just a novel that had just been serialized for less than ten days. The plot had not been fully developed yet, and readers knew little about the novel.
Of course they spread the big news that Lin Han invested in filming "The Matrix" as soon as possible!
There have been fierce discussions on Weibo, QQ groups, and forums. Lin Han's stall is a bit big. His readers and ordinary netizens are curious about how this story was filmed in three parts at one go. .
Movie fans bluntly said: Lin Han's science fiction novels are well known, but his science fiction movies make people a little uneasy. When you think about it carefully, you both love and fear it. I beg the film producers to stop ruining classic novels one after another just to make money.
The Saturn Award is an award organized by the American Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Film Academy. It aims to reward outstanding works of science fiction or horror in the fields of film and television, as well as outstanding works with breakthroughs and innovations.
This is considered a relatively professional award. Except for people who like this aspect and netizens who pay attention to North American entertainment, the mainstream media rarely reports on it.
"Have you seen the news? The little guy who wrote the script for "The Martian" is going to make a science fiction blockbuster. What is his name?" Cui Lecheng tapped his temple, "As people get older, their memory becomes worse. Suddenly I just can’t remember.”
Unlike these people, the media generally looked down on Lin Han's series of movies. From the movie plot to the investment, from the director selection to the filming process, some people were worried, while others were gloating and waiting to see Lin Han fail.
Ji Gaoxuan sighed and said: "People also have the capital to make troubles. When we were young, we wanted to make a movie. Who didn't go around begging grandpa and grandma for investment? In the end, we were happy when we got several million investments. In the end, this kid turned out well. You can make your own money and take pictures, and you can do whatever you want."
New directors should be wary of being too ambitious and too weak-minded. The script is filled with too many complex elements. If you combine them all, it will easily become a hodgepodge of different things. A large crew is different from a small crew, and Lin Han's control will be severely tested! "
"Yes, after all, he is also a professional and has studied steadily for several years. Unlike some people who shoot commercials and shoot MVs, the film industry is too impetuous now." Ji Gaoxuan was also very emotional. They, the older generation Most of the filmmakers take movies seriously, but who would have thought that bad movies would almost take over the market now.
This synopsis quickly spread on the Internet. Many people who were reading the new book couldn't help but be surprised when they saw this plot synopsis.
Ji Gaoxuan nodded. He had studied Hollywood science fiction films and had once thought about shooting a science fiction film of his own. But when the real opportunity came, he hesitated, fearing that directing "Out of the Galaxy" would give him a good reputation. Smash it.
They have witnessed the people who come and go here year after year, whether it is nonsense, drunken lies, or words of wisdom.
As new people come in and old people stay, the team grows stronger, and the chance of meeting acquaintances increases, especially at night.
"Young people are very motivated. They are much stronger than when we were young. I didn't dare to think about this at that time!" Zheng Shuping found it easy to recall his youth as he got older.
Special commentator Peng Yu wrote: "According to the news announced by the Film Bureau, Lin Han's unfinished science fiction novel "The Matrix" will be adapted for the big screen. As soon as this news came out, it immediately aroused great concern among netizens.
