Director of Photography Department of Huayu

How to learn Chapter 688? See you in November.
The sudden title was somewhat unexpected for Wu Chen.

However, the official appointment documents still need to go through some procedures and have not been announced to the public immediately.

The industry is currently unaware of this.

However, Wu Chen also learned from Han Sanping that the plan involved some issues regarding the allocation and support of 3D special funds.

This immediately gave Wu Chen a major headache.

In his view, technical guidance and teaching sharing are not problems.

However, things become sensitive once the word "funds" is involved.

"There will definitely be a lot of funding support for the 3D project," Han Sanping said with a chuckle before leaving.

"Whether it's preferential treatment for university research projects or support for the approval of some domestic 3D films, I estimate that, inevitably, some people will come to you through various connections."

You just need to answer fewer phone calls!

When Wu Chen returned home, Han Sanping's last words were still echoing in his mind, and he couldn't help but give a bitter smile.

Sure enough, there's no such thing as a free lunch.

No matter how good a job sounds, none of the things involved are easy.

On the other hand, although the National Day holiday box office has cooled down somewhat, the box office performance of "The Warmest Thirty Days of My Life" remains strong.

In the first working week after the National Day holiday, the film's daily box office, although it dropped back to the 15 million mark, remained unusually stable.

It seems poised to make steady progress and break through the 300 million mark.

Media coverage remained very rapid.

[The popularity of "30 Days of Warmth" remains high after the National Day holiday, with daily box office revenue not falling below 15 million yuan, and it is expected to break the 300 million yuan mark this week!]

[The romance film starring Wu Chen and Liu Yifei has become a phenomenon this year, and is expected to break the box office record for domestic art films with 4 million yuan!]

[Some cinemas have increased screenings of "Warm Thirty Days" again, with romance films continuing to outperform blockbusters!]

These news reports, once they spread, made other production companies in the industry feel somewhat ashamed.

"The aftereffects are really strong."

"How exactly did Wu Chen do it? How did he come up with the idea of ​​using a sci-fi concept like time travel to make a purely romantic film?"

Many directors and producers have been privately pondering this film repeatedly.

Hopefully, we can replicate some successful experiences from it.

However, after watching the film, many people frowned, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Lu Zheng was one of them, and he looked anxiously at the South Korean director Kim Se-hoon who had been invited.

He just wanted the other party to take a look.
And this director, Kim Se-hoon, is indeed very hardworking.

On the one hand, the money Lu Zheng gave him was simply too much, so much that he couldn't refuse it at all.

On the other hand, it's because Wu Chen is in a class of his own in the entire Asian film and television industry, leading by a significant margin.

"I think our film is similar in spirit to director Wu Chen's film '30 Days of Warmth'!"
The female lead, Ms. Jing Tian, ​​plays a character who, after losing her memory, follows a promise made before her death, and there's a hint of time travel involved.
Furthermore, Ms. Jing Tian plays a child in the film. This will be a greater test of her acting skills. Don't worry, Producer Lu, I have complete confidence in her.”

Lu Zheng felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.

Damn it, did he hire another director who's about the same caliber as "The Warring States"?

In October, besides Wu Chen's new film, which continues to rake in box office revenue, other films are also making waves.

The only news about mainland directors is that Chen Kaige's realistic film, "Caught in the Web," has officially started filming.

This time, the opening ceremony for "Caught in the Web" learned from the lesson of the unexpected collapse of the media channel during the filming of "The Orphan of Zhao" and did not involve such a large-scale event.

However, they still announced to the public the main creative team led by Gao Yuanyuan, Zhao Youting, and others.

Among them is another noteworthy newcomer to the film industry, Yang Mi, whose career is currently booming. "We were drawn to her superb acting skills in 'Mysterious Island'."

Chen Hong's words to the public made people both inside and outside the industry laugh.

"If you're after someone's fans and their box office success, just admit it. 'Superb acting skills'? What can she do in horror movies besides scream?"

"Exactly. It seems even a big director like Chen Kaige has to bow to box office pressure these days!"

"."

Yang Mi herself is probably a bit arrogant because her career has been going too smoothly lately.

In addition, seeing these comments about her online, and having several films and TV series running simultaneously, made her even more anxious.

She began frequently traveling between various film and television production crews.

"Mimi, isn't this a bit inappropriate? How about we concentrate our time and ask for leave from a film crew?"

Zeng Jia still had a brain; her professional intuition told her that Yang Mi's return to the scene like this was bound to cause trouble sooner or later!
"rest assured."

Yang Mi remained calm, though a hint of ambition flashed in her eyes.

She didn't have the chance before, but now the opportunity is right in front of her. Although Liu Yifei is hard to win over, her recent film "Warm Thirty Days" has overshadowed the entire National Day film season.

But she's not bad either.

"I have a chance too."

That long-extinguished desire to compete with Liu Yifei miraculously began to reignite.

Meanwhile, as the release date of Interstellar drew ever closer, the global promotion of the film was in full swing.

In addition to the second trailer, which contained even more information and was released simultaneously worldwide;

Universal Pictures also officially announced a special promotional campaign called "Interstellar Day".

They have joined forces with planetariums, science museums, and IMAX cinemas in more than 11 countries and regions around the world to jointly host an unprecedented "joint screening" event on November 10.

On this day, all participating planetariums and science museums will be open to the public free of charge and will host a series of popular science lectures on the universe, black holes, and relativity.

All participating IMAX theaters will screen a ten-minute exclusive clip from Interstellar in advance.

On the Chinese side, China Film Group is in charge.

The event caused a huge sensation among movie fans and science fiction enthusiasts around the world as soon as it was announced.

"Holy crap, there's even a special event! But I just checked, and it seems there aren't that many IMAX theaters in China."

"These are the ones added after Avatar. In 09 there were only four or five. Now there are dozens, which is not bad."

"Damn, this is inconvenient. We have to go to a big city to watch it; otherwise, we can only wait for the participants to post updates online."

"."

Meanwhile, Universal Pictures also called Wu Chen.

Because the promotional period for the main cast and crew will begin in November.

"We've already booked the entire Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles; this will be North America's grandest 'interstellar premiere'."

David Lyndon was already prepared. "Hmm, Han said he's renting a venue in China."

Wu Chen smiled upon hearing this.

Where can Han Sanping be rented?
They just use the same three tricks: the Great Hall of the People, the CPPCC Auditorium, or the Beijing Sport University Center.
The main selling point is that it is "big enough" to accommodate enough people.

"Okay, see you in November then."
