137: 20 years ahead of Hollywood!

This...... The 3D effect is too obvious.

It's just the beginning of Dreamland Pictures, like Paramount's flying five-pointed star, DreamWorks kids throwing fishhooks, or MGM's lion's roar.

And the opening scene of Dream Pictures is a meteor shower.

It's very simple and it's also very dreamy and beautiful.

But the 3D effect is incomparable, and it is not at all comparable to the previous films.

The meteor shower kept falling, and that feeling really seemed to be smashed directly out of the screen, directly in front of people's eyes, as if it was about to hit people.

The effect is really awesome.

There is no doubt that this segment can be the pinnacle of 3D graphics.

Generally speaking, the stereoscopic effect of 3D movies is good and bad.

So where are the best 3D effects?

Maybe not in the cinema, but in the Science Museum, where there are short films in 3D for the sake of 3D.

That kind of 3D effect is really far more than a movie effect.

Of course, this kind of 3D effect can also be achieved through some high-end VR more than ten years later.

The effect of rushing off the screen is really remarkable.

And Wang Huan's entire movie was shot according to the highest specifications of 3D films from the beginning.

After that, it was rendered and debugged by the Tower of Doom Civilization Star, so the 3D effect was completely bursting.

Suffice it to say, as long as the 3D effect is properly displayed, all of them are top-notch.

Especially the Space Wars part.

There is also the part of the Trisolarans that the droplets wipe out the Earth fleet.

And when the 9-latitude proton unfolds into 2-latitude, the 3D effect is simply amazing.

Far more than the expressive power of 2D films.

In 2005, the previous audience had never seen a 3D movie, but it had never been so amazingly expressive.

The film opens quickly.

Of course, almost everyone present has seen it once, more than half a year ago, after the first version of the special effects was produced, Wang Huan once held an internal screening.

But a good movie has such a magic, even if you watch it for the second time, it is still full of anticipation and pleasure.

That's why there will be re-brushing monsters, and some crazy viewers will even brush them more than a dozen times in a row.

As soon as the scene opened, everyone present noticed something different.

Because these pictures were all taken in real time, they were already extremely good before.

When it was broadcast more than half a year ago, this part was praised by everyone.

But now that I look at it, it feels different.

But I can't say why, I just feel that the impact of the picture is stronger, and I only feel that the color is better.

"I wish the colors were better. The big leader asked.

Wang Huan said: "Yes, it has gone through a comprehensive color mixing. ”

This level of color grading is no longer something that can be done by a dream stunt company.

Rather, it was done by Civilization Star.

In fact, filmmakers have struggled with color for more than 100 years.

Some people say that restoring the true color is the best.

But in fact, real colors may not be pleasing to the eye, and most people still prefer fuller and more impactful colors.

However, the fuller color will get tired after looking at it for a long time.

And even if you want to restore the true color, it is very difficult.

The movie also has a difficult problem, that is, how to restore the dark scenes.

Make sure it's dark, but visible.

So there is a special technology that is responsible for this one, and that is HDR, high dynamic range imaging.

This technology was proposed very early, but it will be a while before it is widely used in imaging.

And after the Civilization Star rendering is adjusted, this is not a movie, and the effect is much more advanced than the HDR technology ten years later.

Therefore, the original pictures of these real-life shots are already extremely shocking.

And now after being modulated and rendered by Civilization Star, the impact is even more amazing.

Almost everyone present felt this clearly.

Moreover, the more shocking the scene, the better the effect.

And then it turned out to be a side effect.

There are so many people who can't focus on the plot.

Because the brain is invested in the appeal and impact of these pictures, the whole spirit will be intoxicated with this kind of picture.

It's as if you're not watching a movie, you're sightseeing.

While watching, I still have to think, sigh, and reminisce.

So if you're not careful, some plots will be missed.

In fact, some extremely awesome movies can also do this.

Because the picture is too good, too awesome, and too shocking, it directly distracts people and misses the plot.

But...... Usually there are only a limited number of images.

However, this time in the finished film of "The Three-Body Problem", this kind of picture is everywhere.

Looking at it, I was distracted and intoxicated.

Wow, that's awesome.

So beautiful.

It's shocking.

Damn, where are you now?

The previous content has always been filmed in real time, and has not yet been played to the part of computer special effects.

Therefore, everyone's hearts are still hanging.

What will the computer special effects part look like?

It's going to be better than the last time, right?

But will it progress to this level?

Soon, large-scale computer effects came.

Here's the part that worries you the most.

Isn't the computer special effects terrible?

The first is the disaster of the Trisolaran planet.

The special effects of this part before, although they have been working hard, are still miserable.

In order to avoid pulling the crotch too much, I can only use a long vision, and I don't dare to do it carefully at all, and it is over hastily.

But now......

The picture of this part is played out to the fullest.

Even much more than the original.

Almost for the first time, when the Trisolaran Planet Disaster was played.

Everyone was stunned.

A thought came to mind: this ...... Is this a special effect? or is it a live action?

Soon everyone understood that it was a special effect.

In real-life shooting, how can there be the irregular changes of the three suns.

In real-life shooting, how can the whole world be burning.

Live shooting, how can so many people be dehydrated.

At first, many people present were still thinking.

But then I gave up thinking completely and was completely immersed in the picture.

This...... This special effect is amazing!

It's terrifying.

I originally thought that the so-called best special effects were to simulate reality.

But I didn't think that the really best special effects are beyond reality.

Because the so-called reality is just a combination of pictures that humans have seen.

But many of the pictures in the movie are not what normal humans can see.

Who can see the alien planet?

Who can see the three suns?

Who can see what it is like for the whole world to be scorched by three suns?

Who knows what it would be like for countless people to become fiber?

Therefore, the most awesome special effects are to surpass the imagination of most people, that is, to surpass reality.

In that way, it will completely calm the person.

When something you have never seen before is placed in front of you, all people instinctively have a great sense of awe.

And now!

This picture of the Trisolar-Planet catastrophe gave everyone present a huge sense of awe.

I haven't seen it.

I can't imagine either.

But...... It's awesome.

It's as if there's a real planet burning.

And this kind of picture is definitely not a long shot, but from far to near, from groups to individuals, and then the camera begins to move, spanning hundreds of miles.

With an incomparably huge area, to interpret the disaster of the whole world.

Many people who came to watch the movie inside were about to cry directly.

This...... What the hell is this called special effects?

I now suspect that there really is a three-body planet in the universe, which is a large-scale real record of the time of the disaster.

A full two minutes later, the cataclysmic picture of the three-body planet ended.

Only then did everyone present exhale.

Because the picture just now is so shocking, so precious, and so amazing, many people are holding their breath to watch it.

It's really a bit suffocating.

After reading this paragraph, I gasped for breath.

Then, again, everyone was distracted.

Depend on!

How did Wang Huan do it?

More than half a year ago, computer special effects were very, very bad.

Completely behind Hollywood by more than a decade.

It's only been more than half a year.

So what should be said about the current level of special effects?

More than a decade ahead of Hollywood?

No, they are even willing to say, twenty years, thirty years ahead.

Several filmmakers present were desperately recalling the stunt images of the Star Wars prequel in their minds and wanted to compare.

Then sadly found that the impact of the special effects of this three-body problem is too strong.

It's awesome.

So, about the "Star Wars Prequel" picture, they can't recall it.

This distraction, and the movie passed for several more minutes.

Damn,,.

I couldn't get distracted anymore and missed a few more minutes.

But soon, they were distracted again.

Because another super big scene has appeared.

This is a virtual reality game in the movie, in which Qin Shi Huang is using thousands of troops to calculate the movement of the three suns.

This picture was originally shot by tens of thousands of people.

Originally, the picture was shocking enough.

But...... It wasn't magical enough, it was just big, it was just shocking, it didn't have the feeling of a humanoid computer.

And now......

The scene is even bigger.

The picture of tens of thousands of people has become a real army of millions.

But it's definitely not like the million-strong army in ordinary special effects, it's completely copied and pasted, which can only be viewed from a distance and cannot be blasphemed.

Because the camera moves so fast.

So this army of millions is extremely real.

Almost every single person is every real person.

There are some films of this world with a staggering number of troops.

Typical big scenes include "War and Peace" and "Armageddon", which were all really filmed by the army, and more than 100,000 people were used for real-life shooting.

Then there is "The Lord of the Rings", which has produced an army of 200,000 people completely with special effects.

Anyone who has seen several movies knows it.

The scene of more than 100,000 people shot in real time is incomparable to computer special effects, and the sense of realism is incomparable.

So although the Lord of the Rings scene is big and the special effects are good enough, it's still fake at first sight.

But the real scene was filmed with more than 100,000 people, although it was real, it was mighty.

However, it is difficult to become a neat column, so the impact and shock are slightly weaker.

And now this part of the three-body problem.

Not only is there the absolute reality of the real shots.

There is also the super impact and shock of millions of people neatly arrayed.

It's really like showing off your skills.

Qin Shi Huang's million-strong army formed a computer array to perform three solar law calculations.

One shot to the end.

Another full two minutes of one shot to the end.

At least it seems, there aren't any clips.

This...... It is probably the first time that an incomparably real army of millions has appeared on the big screen at one time.

It's incredibly real with a close-up.

There is also the incomparably shocking vista.

After the army of millions spread out, an area of several square kilometers.

Fully displayed.

From the details of the ground, to the details of the chariot, to the details of the horses, to the details of the armor and weapons.

It's all very true.

I didn't watch crying in the last scene, but in this scene, many people really watched crying.

Heroes they have seen, the city is full of golden armor, they have also seen it.

The scene is big enough.

But...... Compared to this scene, what is it?

The human computer array composed of an army of millions in front of him is enough to crush the big scenes of all previous movies.

And the previous big scene was really crushed until there was no scum left.

This kind of scene is really not enjoyment anymore.

It's not shocking.

It's all about hitting your visual bottom line.

To put it bluntly, it is to teach you to be a human being, to teach you what is in the world.

And with the blessing of 3D and IMAX effects, that realism, that kind of shock, is even more incomparable.

Some of the filmmakers present even had a passage in their minds: Chaowen said, Xi Ke will die.

And then even worried.

From now on, will there be no more movies?

Jin Yong is too awesome and writes martial arts to death.

This movie is too awesome, will it kill the movie?

Of course, they overthink.

Cinema is not only the art of visual images, it is also the art of stories and emotions.

The front is the trick, and the back is the kernel.

..................

It hasn't been too long since everyone recovered from the human flesh computer of Qin Shi Huang's million-strong army.

And then......

The third killer feature of the film's computer special effects has appeared.

In order to block the earth's technology, the three-body problem unfolded a proton that was extremely small in 9 latitudes and turned it into an incomparably huge two-dimensional plane, and then printed circuits on it to become a supercomputer, and then collapsed back to 11 latitudes to become a small and extremely small point, flying to the earth at the speed of light.

This picture is completely sci-fi.

There is no way to describe it in detail in the book, and it is completely necessary to express it with computer special effects.

Or rather, everyone doesn't understand.

And this special effect is the most difficult part of the first movie, and it is also the part that consumes the most time.

Wang Huan initially used the 2035 version of the screen script.

But later Civilization Star said that that version was not quite in line with the laws of science, and it was modified.

Therefore, this is a comprehensive interpretation of science and technology three hundred years later.

Ahead of the world, a full three hundred years.

So how shocking will this picture be?

It's completely conceivable.

If you say, the first two stunt screens, everyone still has a concept.

And this picture of proton unfolding, all the audience has no concept.

It's really the technology of 300 years later to teach you how to be a man.

All of you shut up and just get on your knees and watch.

And that's exactly what happened.

Although they did not kneel, they knelt in their hearts.

This picture is completely different from the version I saw half a year ago.

Seriously, everyone can't understand it.

But...... But his scalp was numb and his whole body was creepy.

It's like a miracle.

And this piece of the picture is even more IMAX and 3D effects, moving to the extreme.

It's really like magic happening right in front of you.

Countless lights and shadows have rushed out of the screen again and again, eager to get into your eyes.

The picture is very long, a full three minutes.

There is no explanation.

That's how it unfolds for you step by step.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand.

But every step we take is true, and it is the most scientifically sound.

You just get down on your knees and watch.

It's not just about showmanship.

It's a different kind of preaching.

This kind of picture is directly to wash your brain.

There are really some filmmakers who have a big brain.

Is there really a three-body person?

This movie is made by the Three-Body Man, right? It's like a virtual game in it.

Are they going to brainwash us through this movie, to turn us into Adventists?

Just now this proton unfolds and turns into a supercomputer to block the technology of the earth.

It's not a movie at all, it's just a video of how they were made at the time, right?

The more you know, the more you are in awe.

The people who are there are people who know a lot, especially about movies.

They really know that normal movies really can't get to this point.

..................

Finally 203 minutes are over.

The internal screening before the release ended, and no one applauded.

Because they are all sitting in their places.

The shock is too strong, the impact is too great, you have to slow down.

Even many people ask in their hearts.

Put it again, put it again.

For more than three hours just now, I was shocked, patronized and distracted, and watched a movie on my knees the whole time.

So I missed a lot of content.

However, no one said to put it again.

Because, they want to go back, clear their minds, and then recall the details.

It's shocking.

It really takes calmness and thinking.

The national-level leader was also speechless for a long time, and then asked: "Comrade Wang Huan, can you give us a copy first, I'll take it back for everyone to see, you can rest assured that we will never leak it." ”

"Of course, of course!"

Wang Huan handed over the prepared three copies to the staff around the big leader.

The big leader didn't stay to eat, he went back directly, and joked: "I can't stay too long, otherwise I'm afraid that I will become your fan." ”

........................

This internal screening will almost decide the fate of the film.

So, the media is very, very watching.

As soon as the screening ended.

The core actors who participated in the internal screening, as well as the assistant directors, were immediately asked for interviews by countless media and reporters.

And this time, Wang Huan also did not ask to sign a confidentiality agreement, let alone forbid them to speak.

When you are interviewed, you can say whatever you want.

After Jiang Wen went home, he stayed at home for two days before going out.

Then, he gave an interview.

"Director Jiang, you have seen the internal screening of "The Three-Body Problem", this should be the last version before the release, there is no room for improvement. The reporter asked.

"Yes, this is the final version, and a large number of copies have been made, so I can't change it. ”

"Director Jiang, did you only show the first part or three parts at this internal screening?" the reporter asked.

"Only the first one was released, but all three films have already been made, and this copy is made at once. ”

The reporter asked, "Then why is there only one part of the internal screening?"

Jiang Wen said: "Because we are a group of people, we can only bear the weight of the first part. ”

The reporter asked, "What do you mean? Is it because the movie is so bad that after watching the first part, you don't want to watch the second part at all?"

Jiang Wen said: "No, it's because of our poor brain capacity, which can only withstand the incomparable impact of the first part. After we read it, the whole person is stupid, all the visual nerves and imagination have been numbed by the impact, where can I bear the second part? I'll give you an example, a primitive man, walking in the desert for a few days and nights, has been hungry to death, thirsty to death, suddenly brought you the best agar syrup and jade brew, and presented you with dragon liver and phoenix gall, all of which are eaten by the gods. I'll just ask you, a primitive person, how much can you eat? How much can you eat? Two catties a big bowl, you eat one bowl is amazing. If you want to eat three bowls, you'll be stripped to death. ”

The reporter said, "You, what do you mean by that? Is it that the movie is very good?"

"What do you mean by very good? What do you mean by very good?" Jiang Wen said: "Anyway, I won't evaluate the movie, and I don't think anyone can evaluate it, especially filmmakers like us." It's like if you're an ordinary scientist studying physics, and you are asked to point out Newton's three laws, are you willing? Do you dare?"

The reporter said: "Is it to this point? I remember more than half a year ago, you and everyone else searched for it, and the special effects of the movie were very bad, and the completion of the whole movie was also very bad. ”

Jiang Wen said: "Yes, the special effects of the movie at that time were very bad. But now, I don't know how to describe it, I don't want to describe it in terms of special effects, I think it's the magic of cinema. I'm not qualified to comment anyway. ”

The reporter said: "How does that compare to the level of Hollywood, and how does it compare to the special effects of "Star Wars Prequel 3"?"

Jiang Wen was silent for a moment, and said: "Can we not mess around? It's not a level thing at all, just in terms of picture shock, picture technology, "Three-Body Problem 1" has surpassed "Star Wars Prequel 3" for more than 20 years!"

This interview came out.

Public opinion across the country exploded.

Bragging, bragging!

What are you kidding?

Hollywood's special effects are the most awesome.

China is almost 20 years behind Hollywood, and now you are saying that Hollywood is 20 years behind "The Three-Body Problem".

You Jiang Wen drank fake wine, right?

The brain is drunk.

You can't blame everyone for thinking so, because this established impression of the past few decades is too deep.

China's film industry lags behind Hollywood by 20 or 30 years, and computer special effects lag behind by 20 years, which is already a truth in everyone's minds.

This impression is completely ingrained and cannot be changed.

Now you say that the picture of the "Three-Body Problem" movie has surpassed the top level of Hollywood for more than 20 years?

Who would believe it?!

The devil will believe it!

Did you Jiang Wen receive a task from the state to frantically tout "The Three-Body Problem"?

But you don't look like that, do you?

We don't believe what mainland filmmakers say, maybe you have all been banned, what to say and what not to say, you are all in charge of death.

We are waiting for the outside to say, at least for the statement of the Xiangjiang filmmakers.

Soon, Liang Jiahui was interviewed by Heung Kong TV.

"Liang Sheng, did you just participate in the internal screening of "Three-Body Problem 1"?"

"That's right!"

"Liang Sheng, you also watched the internal screening half a year ago, and you are not satisfied with the finished film, right?"

"Yes. Liang Jiahui said: "At that time, the computer special effects were not up to par, which made the whole movie very abrupt. ”

The reporter asked: "What about the results of this screening? Jiang Wen from the mainland said very, very exaggeratedly, saying that the three-body problem movie has surpassed Hollywood for more than 20 years in terms of picture, what do you think?"

Liang Jiahui said: "I don't understand whether it is more than 20 years, because I don't know how fast it will develop in the future." But after watching this movie, one of the actors told me that he didn't know why, and when he watched this movie, he always couldn't sit still and wanted to kneel down to watch it. I'm going to tell you, and that's what I think. ”

What the?!

Get down on your knees and watch a movie?

This...... Isn't that an exaggeration?

The reporter said: "Then what do you mean, this movie is no less standard than "Star Wars Prequel 3"?"

Liang Jiahui said: "It's not inferior, but completely exceeded, these two works are not of the same grade at all, don't mix them up." Actually, I had just watched the Star Wars Prequels trilogy at the hotel before I went to the in-house screening. After watching the Three-Body Problem again, I forgot all the content of the Star Wars prequel in my head, and I didn't want to watch it at all. ”

..................

Jiang Wen and Liang Jiahui's interview is just the beginning.

Next, people who participated in the internal screening were constantly interviewed.

The attitude of all is surprisingly consistent.

But all these attitudes were finally condensed into two sentences.

In the first sentence, the picture effect of the "Three-Body Problem" movie has exceeded that of Hollywood for 20 years.

Second, I want to watch a movie on my knees.

Of course, to some extent, both sentences have a joking interest, which is an exaggerated descriptive.

But these two sentences are controversial and especially easy to circulate.

Almost in a short period of time.

These two sentences spread throughout China, and then began to spread to foreign media.

Domestic people, remain skeptical.

People abroad are completely stupid.

Hype, shameless hype for sure.

These directors and actors were all bribed, and they were completely helping Wang Huan to hype.

There have been such examples before, where a certain big director received money to speak, and boasted about a certain movie that it was a little in the sky and not on the earth. After the results were played, it was indeed a super bad movie.

There must also be the will of the government.

Jiang Wentai disappointed us, and Liang Jiahui also disappointed us.

We thought you were an independent and persistent individual, but we didn't expect you to take money and lie.

Twenty years above Hollywood?

What international jokes?

You don't have a good deal to brag about? It's ridiculous.

..................

Immediately after, Dream Pictures announced.

"Three-Body Problem 1" was released in China at 0:00 on July 18.

In the rest of the world, at 0:00 on July 25, it will be released collectively.

That is, this is not a global simultaneous release, China is a week earlier.

Normally, all blockbusters are made in China a few weeks behind the rest of the world, so Chinese audiences see movies that are weeks behind others.

And this time, the Chinese audience is 7 days ahead of the rest of the world.

Of course, Wang Huan made this decision very capriciously.

This time, he didn't just want Chinese audiences to see the movie 7 days earlier, it wasn't all about cultivating this sense of superiority.

There is also a purpose.

That was in 2005, and the self-confidence of all Chinese people was seriously low.

There are many things that must be said by foreign countries before they dare to say yes with confidence.

For example, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was very low in China at the beginning, but after it was a great success in Hollywood, a large part of the domestic people changed their tunes and praised it as a masterpiece.

Therefore, a large number of film practitioners often cater to the tastes of foreign judges and audiences first.

And this time, Wang Huan first released it in China for 7 days, and then released it globally.

It is to cultivate independent evaluation of domestic audiences.

But this decision, a lot of public opinion exploded again.

Wang Huan's heart is empty, the quality of this movie is not up to standard, so he doesn't dare to release it worldwide. ”

"He was released in China first, because this is his home base, no matter how bad the filming is, there are many people who support it and many people applaud. He wants to use the word-of-mouth of Chinese audiences to influence the world. ”

"No, it's not. Wang Huan is afraid that the bad reputation of foreign countries will affect the domestic market, he knows that the market of this movie is basically in the Chinese market, if the world is released simultaneously, foreign scolding will make the domestic box office plummet, so China will release it for seven days first, just to cheat the box office for seven days first. ”

There is no doubt that Wang Huan's decision fully reflects the poor quality of this movie, making him afraid to face the global audience. ”

And under this incomparably complex and incomparably anxious public opinion environment.

Time is coming day by day.

Finally!

July 18 is coming.

"Three-Body Problem 1" was officially released in the Chinese market!

....................................

Note: I went to get a haircut and came back to write the second watch! After it was put on the shelf, every day was either a code word, or lying down to rest, and there was really no time for a haircut.

Honorable benefactors, if you have a monthly pass, please give it to me! This feeling of being in danger and being exploded at any time is too scary.
