Chapter 1,227 It’s Finally Here

Confidence is something Chen Hao has never lacked. Even for a movie like "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" where Red Dot prepared 500 million US dollars waiting for him to burn; even if a large number of peers and audiences are waiting for him with at least 8.5 points, he has no psychological burden.

He once asked himself, although this is not flattery, but he has been lifted to a very high position, don't you worry about failure? The higher you stand, the harder you fall. In the past two years, many people are waiting for their Waterloo. Once, it is guaranteed that a large number of people will come up and try to step into the abyss. Aren't you worried?

Some people around him have asked similar questions. Chen Hao has thought about it seriously more than once. To be honest, he really hasn't. Perhaps it is the success of his creation of "Lost", or perhaps it is the buffer period without a failure, which makes him not too stressed about the next big play.

What's more, he has prepared things to test the waters.

At the beginning, the novel was written according to the script. In addition to some adjustments in the timeline, the rest was the basic novel, that is, the script. Therefore, whether it was "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" or "The Three-Body Problem", he planned to release the movie first, and then release the novel one volume and one episode later.

Although it is called a script novel, the novel still needs more words. The scripts of these two books are also different from the Hollywood format. They are not the kind of one page per minute. In fact, they can be, but Chen Hao is not so particular.

For example, a small-scale war scene.

In the script, only a few hundred words are needed to introduce the location of the battle, its significance and value, the goals to be achieved, and whether there are important characters appearing or dying. The rest of how to fight and what scenes are all up to the director to think about. He thinks what pictures are better and how to shoot them is more exciting.

The good thing about the novel script is that the novel is written by Chen Hao, and the director who is at the helm of the movie is also Chen Hao. He is in charge of everything from beginning to end. So when I write the script, I can directly copy many details from the novel. I can just replace the things introduced in the novel with pictures.

The establishment of Red Dot Company wanted to create a world-class film company. "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" was given too much extra meaning and value, so he had a new plan to publish "The Three-Body Problem" in a pure novel mode. Some people would say it was a test, but he didn't care. He just wanted to tell everyone that this time you don't need to guess whether I have confidence or not. I have full confidence.

The discussion of the script roles was very lively. One role after another was finalized, and some roles were still entangled. Chen Hao and all the screenwriters worked hard in the room for another ten days. Except for a few big-name roles that needed to be confirmed whether they could come to guest star, they were basically finalized. The rest depended on the state of the on-the-spot performance to determine whether they would be used.

Every distinctive supporting role has two sets of preparations, and the configuration is very rich. Once it feels a little abrupt or inappropriate on the spot, it will be adjusted immediately without delay.

Finally, Chen Hao had to come out. "Departures" was still waiting for him to shoot the remaining scenes, and "Time Rescue" was still waiting for him to hold a celebration party. The publisher had successfully typeset the first and second volumes of "The Three-Body Problem" and could start printing and publishing at any time. Both the Chinese and English versions had been finalized. If other language versions were needed later, there was no need to rush and wait for the publishers in the countries of the language to come to discuss.

All the work was waiting in a busy manner. After coming out of the closed-door state, Chen Hao returned to China first. There was a job here that he felt could not wait.

The main theme movie "Hong" was about to be officially released. With the popularity of "Time Rescue" sweeping away 3 billion box office in China, Chen Hao came out of the airport and went to the premiere. The main theme movie that was originally very serious and everyone in the system supported it suddenly became the hottest topic of the day. The group that rarely received attention in the past received attention from hundreds of domestic and foreign media today.

The media is here, and there are still basic etiquettes. Maybe we won't be as crazy as when Chen Hao appeared, but since the camera has been set up, no matter whether we know the guests or not, we should take pictures seriously. Now is not the era of film negatives. It doesn't cost much to take more pictures of people walking on the red carpet and signing at the door. Don't make the scene awkward. With Mr. Chen's temper, he might disappear again. If you make the scene awkward, isn't it the same as destroying Mr. Chen's stage?

Thinking about not stealing the show, the actual effect is that he steals the show. All Chen Hao can do is keep silent from beginning to end, not accept any interviews, get off the car and walk to the signature board, sign, pose for everyone for more than ten seconds, let everyone take pictures, and then nod and walk into the premiere regardless of everyone's questions, leaving a lot of regretful voices.

There were many leaders of relevant departments and many seniors in the industry at the scene. Maybe these people were not stars, but their presence made you lower your posture to a certain extent and face them as a junior, even if you were a big director like Zhang Yimou and Xiao Gangpao, or a well-known actor like Ge Da Ye, Huang Bo, and Sun Honglei.

Seniority is very valuable in China, especially if you have some resources in your hands and can be very jealous about certain things, then this seniority is even more valuable.

Chen Hao doesn't dislike these people. On the contrary, he admires most of them who have devoted their lives to the Chinese film industry. He just dislikes some very few people who always use their seniority to point fingers but have made no contribution to the film industry.

Just like today's occasion, he is not the protagonist, but as long as he arrives at the scene, he will definitely be the protagonist inside and outside. He sees people everywhere. He can't even count how many people greeted him. If he stops and shakes hands with many people, he will definitely remember their names, but when he greets them, they just nod and flash by. He really can't take care of many people, and he really doesn't know who the other person is, and there is no intersection with them.

As he finally sat down, some people began to discuss privately, saying things like young people should not be too ostentatious, young people should respect their elders, and young people should know etiquette. The atmosphere was very sour and resentful. In such a large venue, even some media workers followed the audience group, which was originally not a large proportion, and became fans of Chen Hao, creating an atmosphere that he can be found almost everywhere.

At any movie premiere, even if Chen Hao did not participate or just played a guest role as a passerby, as long as he came to the premiere to show his support, it was normal for similar scenes to appear at the scene. Even the fans of the movie's protagonists and big stars to shout his name were normal. In the mouth of the media, this was a kind of enthusiasm to show hospitality.

Only at the scene of such a main theme movie, many people were used to collective applause and collective slogans, and the atmosphere on the scene was very rhythmic. Everything was under control, and the media was also within control. What kind of news should be broadcast today, how to report the atmosphere on the scene, everything was arranged, and everything was carried out according to the pre-determined rhythm process. Suddenly, everything has become uncontrollable, which makes some people panic and worry about unexpected things happening. They are still used to the rhythm of all live parties and stage performances being recorded.

Can a live event without unexpected surprises still be called a live event?

Can a live event with Chen Hao still be called a live event without enthusiastic fans shouting his name crazily?

By the end of the premiere, there were more and more voices, such as the ranking of the directors' generation, who the actors learned from in the film academy, and all kinds of things that implied Chen Hao's ranking based on seniority. The implication was that even if he was popular now, he was just a junior, and he still needed to respect his teachers in this industry. The predecessors had a lot of truths waiting to tell him. It was not a good thing to become popular too quickly and stand too high. You should know how to hide your shortcomings and learn to be low-key, otherwise you are likely to fall, and then there will definitely be more people stepping on you than helping you...

There are a lot of big truths, all for your own good. In fact, Chen Hao understood that he had finally reached this position today. The title of "Mr. Chen" was finally going to override tradition, and finally let the four words of seniority be completely sidelined. What was coming finally came. So, some people really couldn't sit still. When they were alone or with two people, they didn't dare to show up, for fear that other Haomen fans would crush them to pieces. Finally, there was such an opportunity, and they wanted to get out all at once and directly suppress Chen Hao.

"We are not trying to suppress young people. We are trying to help them settle down. Look at the scene yesterday. He was just a small role to help, but the scene became the scene where he was the leading actor. This is not right. We should respect traditional concepts and not exaggerate the word idol star. An actor who has only been acting for a few years is called Mr. by everyone, and some people even call him teacher. Is this appropriate? Does he really have the ability? Isn't it his fame that matters? Why do those old actors who have been acting for 20 or 30 years not recognize them when they appear on the scene? Why don't people call them teachers? It's just fame. This is not acceptable."

Haomen fans will certainly not tolerate such voices, but when everyone started to fight back, they found that this time was different from the past. It was no longer suppressed by the large number of people and loud voices. The banner of tradition was raised. It would be fine if Haomen fans didn't speak up. As soon as they showed up, they immediately put their words on Chen Hao and put on a big hat of disrespecting tradition.
