After thinking about it for a long time, Peng Yichen finally decided to announce his ideas and plans here, after all, the film and television base he used to shoot the next movie was about to start. Ｘ

The news of his next movie will soon be known by media reporters, and there is little point in hiding it any longer.

"This classmate's question is very good. First of all, I want to tell you that I am also a 'die-hard fan' of science fiction movies. I was a big fan of sci-fi and sci-fi movies, and I was even very obsessed with sci-fi in high school.

So I know a lot about science fiction movies, and I know a lot about them. ”

Peng Yichen was indeed a 'die-hard fan' of science fiction and science fiction movies in his previous life, and Liu Cixin, who single-handedly raised Chinese science fiction literature to the world level, was his biggest idol in high school.

"As we all know, Chinese science fiction movies have always been a pain point in the film industry. We can often hear comments on domestic science fiction movies, such as: special effects, stupid plots, scientific theories full of errors and omissions, scientific and technological props are naïve and ridiculous, and so on.

It is an exaggeration to say that the level of domestic science fiction today is even inferior to Hollywood science fiction movies before the 90s of the last century.

It can be said that domestic films have almost no development and achievements in the genre of science fiction.

This is so because science fiction movies are a very difficult genre to shoot.

Making a good sci-fi movie is like building a nuclear bomb. It is necessary to mobilize the entire country's film industry and ecological chain for support. No matter which link goes wrong, the final effect on the big screen will be 108,000 miles apart.

A good science fiction movie not only needs to create a shocking effect with futuristic science fiction on the movie screen, but also has a firm foothold in basic scientific theories and scientific logic.

In terms of the creation of film special effects, I have just explained in the lecture that there is no problem with Huaxia's film special effects technology, and the problem often lies in the thoughts and attitudes of filmmakers.

I won't repeat myself here.

Chinese science fiction movies, in addition to the flood of 'five mao special effects', the most complained about is often the word 'science' in science fiction movies.

Many filmmakers who shoot science fiction movies have a very shallow and ignorant understanding of science.

And they often like to take the audience for fools.

often uses a plot full of errors and completely untrustworthy naïve scientific settings to make up a so-called science fiction story, and then hurriedly made it into a movie and released it.

In the end, in the eyes of the audience, the so-called science fiction movies often become tragic car accident scenes.

Even children who watch these sci-fi movies will dislike their content as too childish and ridiculous, let alone adult fans and audiences.

It is no wonder that Chinese fans want to make some pertinent and realistic evaluations of domestic science fiction movies, such as "mentally retarded plots" and "brain-dead characters".

recalls Feng Xiaoning's children's science fiction movie "The Disappearance of the Atmosphere" shot in 1990, such a science fiction movie with an investment of only 400,000 yuan in shooting costs.

The depth of thought, scientific basis and imagination of future science fiction covered in the movie all make these domestic pseudo-science fiction movies unattainable.

Most of the makers of these pseudo-sci-fi movies just want to rub off on the popularity of Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters to defraud the audience of the money in their pockets, but they don't care about the audience's viewing experience at all.

And Hollywood's masters of shooting science fiction movies often plan for months or even years for a science fiction movie.

There is a Hollywood director who can even because the shape of a porthole on a spaceship does not achieve the effect he imagined.

It took two weeks of experimentation to build hundreds of different porthole models and finally determine the most suitable form factor. ”

Speaking of which, the Qinghua student who just asked the question certainly felt worried about the future of Chinese science fiction films, and even the teachers and students of the film academy, who usually don't pay much attention to science fiction, also found that Chinese science fiction movies were really at the end of the road.

But Peng Yichen's blow is still not over.

"Except for the peculiarities of science fiction films themselves.

There is another biggest problem faced by Chinese science fiction films, that is, cultural self-confidence and cultural identity.

The reason why we like Hollywood science fiction movies so much is whether it is to watch those technological fantasies, but more importantly, through the development of science and technology, human nature and social problems are reflected.

However, in domestic science fiction movies, there are few profound discussions on human nature and criticism of real social issues.

The consequence of the long-term overdraft of domestic pseudo-science fiction movies is to cause a kind of embarrassment of Chinese science fiction movies.

Even in very good Hollywood science fiction movies, as long as there are scientific research institutions and scientific and technological achievements in China.

After seeing it, the Chinese audience will not only not have a sense of pride and identity, but will feel embarrassed, and even cause the Chinese audience to laugh.

This is the current situation of Chinese science fiction movies, the saddest status quo. ”

Speaking of this, all the filmmakers present and the students who are about to enter the film industry are a little low, and they have no room for refutation of Peng Yichen's statement.

This is the case with Chinese science fiction movies, and it is useless to cover it up.

But Peng Yichen changed his words at this time and said:

"No matter how bad today's Chinese science fiction movies are. But in the future, the genre of science fiction movies will definitely be the most critical component of the domestic film industry.

Science fiction movies themselves represent the spire of the film industry pyramid, and only when a country's film system develops to a certain height, it is possible to have excellent science fiction film works.

In other words, if Huaxia wants to shoot an excellent science fiction movie, someone must have the determination to die and come back to life, and explore a science fiction film shooting method suitable for Huaxia.

This is also one of my dreams that I want to realize, to shoot and perform classic science fiction movies that belong to China. ”

When Peng Yichen said this, his tone was full of firmness and determination, which made everyone present believe that this young man would definitely open a way for Chinese filmmakers in science fiction movies.

And the boy who asked the question seemed to hear something amazing from Peng Yichen's last sentence.

"Director Peng, is your next movie a science fiction movie?" The boy looked at Peng Yichen excitedly, and couldn't believe that his favorite movie director and actor was really about to start filming his favorite science fiction movie.

Peng Yichen smiled and teased: "You have too many questions, you must know that I have already said just now, and I will only answer your last question." ”

I saw that the boy was anxious to explain something.

Peng Yichen waved his hand and smiled lightly: "Although you have a lot of questions, I don't mind answering. Indeed, I'm already preparing to make a sci-fi movie. Even if it's not the next one, the next one will definitely be a sci-fi movie, that's my promise. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the reporters in the audience were the first to stir, and they all rushed to the audience regardless of the request not to ask questions.

In an instant, the long guns and short cannons were aimed at Peng Yichen.

Peng Yichen stopped talking, waved goodbye to the students in the audience, and quickly left the Kyoto Film Academy under the protection of the staff.
