Chapter 1011 The Martian Starts Filming (Asking for Monthly Votes)

Chapter 1012 "The Martian" launches (please vote for me)

What Huang Da'an received was actually a short notice.

Just because Huang Bo, Zhang Songwen, and Wang Shunliu were about to leave for Siam to film "囧", Huang Da'an had this opportunity.

Yan Bingyan also got a role.

He is the person who talks to the director of China Space Administration, and he has about a few minutes of scenes in the film.

There is nothing wrong with Yan Bingyan playing a military scientist.

Her acting skills are spot on and she has a good figure.

In her first movie "The Hunt for the Wild Wolf", she played a female SWAT captain. In "Red Cross Squadron", which helped her win the Golden Eagle Award for Best Supporting Actress, she played a woman who comes from a three-generation military family. Navy warrior.

If given the chance, Hao Yun would definitely give priority to his own actors.

But don’t go too far.

Penetration work should be done quietly and gently, as being too aggressive will lead to box office collapse.

At that point, Hollywood won’t be able to continue its strategy.

What Hao Yun wants to do is to let movie fans around the world discover that he has actually become a Hollywood tyrant.

Hao·Lilly·BaTian!

Most of the movie "The Martian" was shot in a studio.

There is also a part in Wadi Rum in Jordan, where there is a red desert, which is the Ashidaria Plain of Mars in the movie.

As early as 2000, another movie about a mission to Mars, "Red Planet," was also shot here.

There were predecessors who planted trees, and it didn’t take much time to select a site.

Although it would be more comfortable to shoot in the desert now than in two months, Hao Yun decided to finish shooting the part in the studio first.

In the desert, it's basically Matt Damon's scene.

The landscape and environment of Mars are created through a combination of location shooting and computer three-dimensional animation.

Although NASA has criticized some unprofessional details in the movie. For example, the average air pressure on the surface of Mars is 600 Pa (0.087 psi), which is about 0.6% of the Earth’s average air pressure of 100 kPa (14.69 psi), so no matter how high it is on Mars, The storm feels like a breeze.

Also, Martian soil cannot be used to grow potatoes, and feces cannot be used as fertilizer without fermentation...

Anyway, there are a lot of BUGs.

But from novels to movie scripts, the attitudes about science and guiding people to love science are very correct.

Therefore, NASA still provided a lot of photos for the movie, helped build the studio, and very considerately sent Chinese engineers.

There is no shortage of Chinese in NASA.

In 1937, five innovative young people in California, Malina, Parsons, Foreman, Smith, and Mr. Qian, an overseas student from China, founded the "Rocket Club" - the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

Small explosions and accidents often occurred in the experiment, and the five-person team was once dubbed a death squad.

In May 1938, the rocket engine they developed ignited and started running. Amidst the huge roar, the tail flame soared into the sky and stirred up huge waves. It attracted the attention of countless people, including the Associated Press, which reported that the Miguo military favored and funded it.

However, science has no borders, but scientists do.

Mr. Qian was excluded from research by the Miguo military because of his nationality and had to quit JPL.

After the Neon attack on Pearl Harbor, military research accelerated and a large number of high-end talents were urgently needed. The Miguo military made an exception and issued Mr. Qian the top secret license and gold badge of the Ministry of National Defense.

As a result, Mr. Qian was able to freely enter and leave the Pentagon and participate in top-secret scientific and military research projects, including the development of Miguo's first sounding rocket, the testing of rocket-assisted aircraft, and the development of solid propellants, short-range missiles, etc.

After the establishment of the Migo Space Agency in the late 1950s, this "Jet Propulsion Laboratory" was merged into the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and was specifically responsible for the development of deep space detectors. This is why Mr. Qian is called the founder of NASA.

In this movie, Mr. Qian is also mentioned, which is considered a tribute.

Mr. Qian gave Hao Yun the confidence to stand up straight in the studio and talk to several NASA engineers.

Huang Da'an plays a JPL engineer who secretly studies those people.

We must not let people in China laugh at us.

Although the role assigned to him by Hao Yun is a supporting role, his character is very good and he belongs to the elite among Chinese Americans.

I heard that the director had arrived at the studio, and the actors who had rushed over also set out to meet him.

Male lead Matt Damon and female lead Jessica Chastain were the first to rush over.

They are all actors decided by Hao Yun, and the others are actors auditioned by the casting director.

"I'm Sean Bean, and I'm delighted to be working with Director Felix."

When an uncle saw Hao Yun, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he rushed over and held Hao Yun's hand.

This gesture really makes people feel...comfortable.

Hao Yun has no shortage of blockbuster works and honors.

Now he is filming a movie that he wrote and directed himself. Even the novel is a best-seller written by himself. He is simply a god-like existence.

Even NASA engineers are fans of his books.

"I have read your "Lord of the Rings" series, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet you in person today. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

Hao Yun greeted the other party politely.

Sean Bean plays Boromir in The Lord of the Rings.

He is the eldest son of Denethor, the regent of Gondor. He was tempted by the ring while escorting the ring and tried to seize the ring held by Frodo Baggins. Later, he fought with the orcs, was seriously injured, and died in Aragorn's arms.

Chinese netizens call him "Uncle Dou".

He is known as the king of bento in Hollywood. He has acted in many movies and TV series, but most of them died in accidents. He is a person who interprets various ways of death with his life.

"Thank you!" Sean Bean took out three novels and asked Hao Yun to sign them.

He has three daughters, all born to him by his ex-wives.

Two of them like "The Martian" very much, but in order to be fair, he simply asked Hao Yun to sign three.

He just finished a TV series at the end of last year, playing the role of Ned Stark, the Duke of Winterfell and the Northern Guard in the play.

Just when the schedule was free, he auditioned for a supporting role in "The Martian".

Most of those who participated in "The Martian" were fans of the novel. They joined the film after hearing that the audition had started.

"Hello, director. I'm Sebastian Stan!" said a very handsome young man.

He almost didn't get to act in this film.

Because he acted in a superhero film "Captain America: The First Avenger", in which he played James Barnes, a friend who grew up with Captain America.

Originally, "Captain America: The First Avenger" was to be filmed first, and after filming this one, he would just participate in "The Martian".

Unexpectedly, "The Martian" was suddenly filmed ahead of schedule.

Just when he was struggling and feeling uncomfortable, "Captain America: The First Avenger" announced that the filming plan was postponed.

The two films just happened to be switched.

Otherwise, he would have to face the difficult choice of choosing one of the two.

Unless the two films allow him to take on two plays at the same time.

Generally speaking, actors without status cannot enjoy this treatment. People will only notify you on which day to act, but will not let you notify the crew on which day I am free and can film my play.

A man and a woman came later.

Michael Pena and Kate Mara, both actors who starred in "Sniper", the sniper movie starring Mark Wahlberg.

Hao Yun chatted with them for a while, and when the time was almost up, he took everyone to the prepared venue to attend the opening ceremony.

Michael Bay and Paramount President Brad Grey were present in person.

Hollywood also has an opening ceremony, and it is a very important part of Hollywood's marketing model.

Especially for movies like "The Martian".

It has a very good attention in itself, so it is natural to maximize the attention of fans.

The production and distribution company, the director, the actors involved, and some other key figures.

The key figures of "The Martian" are several people from NASA.

There are also a few lucky book fans - all of them are eloquent and elites in various industries.

At the opening ceremony, the media asked a lot of questions.

Hao Yun answered them one by one with ease.

His personal knowledge reserve is amazing. Whether it is astronomy or botany, he is not afraid of any topic.

Of course, controversy brings heat.

A reporter at the scene questioned Hao Yun's ability and whether he was qualified to direct such a movie because of his Chinese identity.

Michael Bay and Paramount President Brad Grey naturally praised Hao Yun without hesitation, believing that only Hao Yun, the original author, was qualified to shoot this movie.

As for the cost of 100 million, Brad Grey believes that this money is not much at all.

Hao Yun, a director from China, is very good at controlling costs.

If Nolan were to shoot this movie, believe it or not, he would have to spend at least 150 million to shoot it.

Unexpectedly, the scene also worshipped the camera according to the custom of Hao Yun.

This is actually quite interesting and can be used as material for hype. It's a pity that Hao Yun didn't prepare Guan Erye, otherwise he would have worshipped Guan Erye directly.

It can also give these foreigners a popular science of what Guan Erye is.
