Even before the trailer was released, Chen Xun's global fan club had already made preparations.

They have formed hundreds of Amway groups in different languages, covering more than 80 countries and regions around the world.

As soon as the trailer was released, fans immediately took action:

Fans fluent in various languages ​​worked overnight to translate the trailer into dozens of languages, add subtitles, and post it on overseas platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram.

It also thoughtfully included background information on Chinese science fiction and answered questions from foreign netizens.

Overseas student fans spontaneously went to local cinemas, university campuses, and communities to distribute flyers and post posters, recommending "The Wandering Earth" to foreigners around them. Some even paid out of their own pockets to buy dozens of movie tickets and give them away to local residents for free.

Domestic fans bypassed internet restrictions to access major overseas forums and social media platforms, interacting with foreign netizens, popularizing the Eastern romance of taking the Earth on a journey, and refuting prejudices that Chinese science fiction is inferior.

Fans have also created emojis and memes in various languages, which are being spread on overseas social media platforms.

They used methods that young people like to let more people know about this Chinese science fiction film.

In just three days.

The trailer for "The Wandering Earth" spread to streets and alleys all over the world.

Even many foreigners who don't usually watch Chinese movies know about this Chinese sci-fi film that takes the Earth on a journey.

A foreign netizen commented on Twitter: "I have never seen a movie's fans have such strong mobilization and cohesion. They are not chasing stars, but are proud of their country's science fiction."

Domestic netizens also joked: "Are Chen Xun's fans all special forces? They're so dedicated to promoting Chinese science fiction internationally! While other people's fans follow their idols, Chen Xun's fans are helping their idol take Chinese science fiction to the world stage!"

During breaks, people turned into promoters for "The Wandering Earth".

Chen Xun's phone kept ringing.

All the messages were from friends and fans in China.

Even overseas actors came over with their phones asking him for premiere tickets.

"Chen, I've already recommended 'The Wandering Earth' to my fans, I'm telling them to all go see it!"

Tom Holland leaned over excitedly, saying, "My parents have already bought tickets and said they're going to the cinema to support me!"

Vin Diesel patted Chen Xun on the shoulder, looking serious: "Brother, I've already made sure all the Fast & Furious actors went to see this movie. Family must support family!"

Paul Walker also laughed and said, "I've booked fifty shows and invited my friends and fans. This amazing Chinese science fiction deserves to be seen by more people."

Chen Xun looked at the photos and videos on his phone of fans promoting the product across borders.

The subtitles I translated while staying up all night, and the flyers I handed out on the streets of a foreign country, filled me with a surge of warmth.

He originally thought that all he could do was make a good film, establish distribution channels, and let more people see Chinese science fiction.

But he never expected that his fans would use this method to help push Chinese science fiction to the world.

He picked up his phone and posted a Weibo message: "Thank you to everyone who worked hard for 'The Wandering Earth,' and thank you to all the fans who spontaneously recommended it. This movie is not my achievement alone; it is the result of the perseverance of all Chinese filmmakers and the love of all Chinese people for science fiction. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, let's take the Earth home with us."

This Weibo post garnered over a million reposts within an hour of its release, and the comments section was filled with messages from fans: "Don't worry, Brother Xun! We'll definitely give 'The Wandering Earth' the biggest boost!"

Go Chinese science fiction! Go Chen Xun! See you in theaters on Chinese New Year's Day!

"It's an honor to witness the rise of Chinese science fiction alongside you!"

The race to secure release slots during the Spring Festival season in China's film industry has already entered a fierce stage.

Of the 12 films originally scheduled for release on the first day of the Lunar New Year, 5 have quietly changed their release dates within just one week.

Some films were shown a week early and then pulled away, some were postponed to the Lantern Festival, and some were withdrawn altogether.

They don't even dare to announce a new release date.

The remaining films also reduced their marketing budgets and cancelled all the originally scheduled prime-time screenings, seemingly resigned to their fate and willing to be ridiculed.

The hashtag #SpringFestivalFilmShowRunningAwayCompetition# on Weibo has garnered over 20 billion views.

The comments section was filled with netizens' hilarious吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or sarcastic remarks): "In the past, the Spring Festival film season was a battle of gods, but now 'The Wandering Earth' is taking on eleven films at once, and the other eleven have all run away!"

"I suggest rescheduling to the Spring Festival of 2030. By then, Chen Xun should no longer be filming for the Spring Festival, so you'll still have a chance."

"They're all running away faster than the last. When they officially announced their release dates, they were all shouting 'Aiming for the box office champion,' but now they're running faster than rabbits!"

"It's not that the Spring Festival film season is bad, it's that you guys are bad. If you're so capable, why don't you go head-to-head with 'The Wandering Earth'? What are you running away from?"

"A director originally planned to release the film on Chinese New Year's Day, but last night he changed 'Chinese New Year's Day' on the poster to 'Release on a later date,' and didn't even dare to write the date!"
