When the creators of "Alita: Battle Angel" stood on the stage, the applause and cheers of the audience were even louder.

Tu Jingwei raised the microphone a few times before everyone stopped applauding, in fact, it is also a skill to make the audience stop applauding, usually the host pretends to speak and has to give up, and it is almost the same three times as this.

If the audience doesn't stop, the host can directly open his mouth.

"This movie was so unexpected that I thought it was going to be a relatively intense story like Star Wars, Avatar, Edge of Tomorrow and so on. Outcome...... What I saw was a different and interesting sci-fi movie. Director He, how did you come up with the idea of buying the film and television adaptation rights of this story? ”

"Hmm...... Actually, I wanted to make some sci-fi movies, and then I bought the copyrights of a batch of sci-fi stories, and these sci-fi copyrights not only included domestic ones but also wanted to buy foreign ones, and the foreign ones only bought two anime stories from the island country.

At that time, I read a lot of stories, picked and chosen, and finally chose "Killing Reincarnation" and "Gun Dream". Everyone knows about "Killing Reincarnation", which was adapted into "Edge of Tomorrow", and "Gun Dream" was adapted into "Alita".

The main reason for choosing this story is that it is no longer a science fiction story with the theme of fighting aliens, and the other is that it has a large pattern, thinking that after human beings have developed into a stellar civilization, they have fallen into a bottleneck. Then, because there is no way out of the next stage of stellar civilization, that is, galaxy civilization. As a result, there was an infighting between stellar civilizations for the resources within the solar system.

The story is about the greedy nature of human beings, and when greed is not satisfied, it is a mutual fight. Alita, on the other hand, is a victim of this scramble, and when she returns, she will change order again.

I chose this story because this story puts forward thoughts and possible results for the development of human civilization in the future, which is that after we break through to the stellar civilization, it will be difficult to reach the level of galaxy civilization in a short period of time, which may cause infighting for resources.

In fact, everyone who writes stories, or makes up stories, likes to think and warn about the future, and stories like "Gun Dream" have similar thoughts, but in order to make this kind of thinking marketable, it becomes an interesting story. ”

He Fang explains the origin of the story and why he chose it.

"Wow, does that mean you've started thinking about how to tell romantic stories with movies at your level?" Tu Jingwei asked in surprise.

"That's too high, but it's not entirely wrong. In fact, in my opinion, many science fiction stories have a characteristic, that is, they first put forward a pessimistic imagination, and then use wonderful plot development to reverse this pessimistic imagination.

Of course, there are also stories that do not reverse, but rather enter into another kind of thinking. For example, like Mr. Liu's "Three-Body Problem", it is such a story, a pessimistic imagination, and then after a lot of hard work, the result may not be very good, but it makes our thoughts wash and sublimate.

This kind of science fiction story is not only limited to science fiction, but also a kind of philosophical thinking, so I still like it very much. I think this kind of science fiction story is the romanticism of science fiction stories, which not only respects the logic of development, but also does not stick to the relationship between positive and negative, it is a reflection on the whole civilization.

Of course, I also like sci-fi like fighting monsters or fighting aliens, because the story is more straightforward and intuitive, and it can make my blood boil right away. In short, this is a sci-fi route that belongs to two different styles. ”

As soon as He Fang finished speaking, the audience immediately burst into warm applause, it was really a bit of a literati thing that He Fang said just now.

"You mentioned "The Three-Body Problem" just now, and I heard that you also got the copyright, are you going to make this one? But many people say they can't understand it, it's a little jerky, what do you think of this? Jing Wei asked.

"Well, I'll just answer one question that has nothing to do with this movie." He Fang reminded Tu Jingwei that you digressed as the host and talked about it outside the movie.

After Tu Jingwei was stunned, she suddenly knew that she had lost her words, and threw an apologetic look at her.

"The Three-Body Problem" is strictly a work that can win the Nobel Prize in Literature, it is the greatest science fiction work in China, and it is one of the greatest science fiction works in the world. I believe that one day it will get its own honor. I'm definitely going to shoot this story, but I'm not in a hurry, I haven't figured out how to properly embody it. ”

He Fang's high evaluation of "The Three-Body Problem" directly shocked everyone on the scene, the key is that many people have not heard of this one, and it seems that they have to take a good look at this one when they go back.

"Why didn't you work with Hollywood actors again this time?"

"No, this is an oriental-style thinking movie, I think it's okay to shoot enough oriental." He Fang answered simply.

"Why did you rename the movie Alita: Battle Angel? Isn't the original story called "Gun Dream"? ”

"This question is not complicated, because there are many people who can't understand the name "Gun Dream", and the name "Alita" can make people know that it is a person's name at first hearing, and it is the name of a heroine. Because this is the first part, and it is also the one in which Alita restores her battle account, so it is called "Alita: Battle Angel". ”

"Okay, so let's ask another question, how did the mechanical human structure in the movie be filmed so realistically? I feel that the characters in it are more skilled in using machinery than their own skills. ”

"That's the power of film technology, and if I want to explain it, I'll have to answer it from a lot of technical aspects, but I'm sure a lot of people don't want to hear it and don't understand it. Let me answer in the most straightforward way, that is, half of the mechanical limbs in it are made of props, and half of them are made of CG modeling.

And the body like Alita's is made of props, and the flexible operation robotic arm like a nurse is synthesized by props and CG. In short, it is the result of the cooperation of these two ways. ”

"Okay, thank you Director He Fang for your answer. If you have anything else you want to ask about Director He, you can test him in the interactive session. Next, let's ask our Alita Panzhilin. ”

As he spoke, Tu Jingwei walked to Pan Zhilin's side, and then turned his head to look at her.

"Pan Zhilin, as a Fang girl, this is the first time you starred in a movie, what is it like?"

"Well, it's been a long wait, but it's worth it." Pan Zhilin replied.

"Oh? How to understand? Tu Jingwei asked.

"Because Director He's movie doesn't mean that if you have a good relationship with him, he will let you be the heroine, it must be that the protagonist of his movie happens to be only suitable for you before you will let you be the heroine. To be honest, by this standard I didn't think I would be able to wait for such a role anytime soon.

Unexpectedly, Director He said that the role of the movie "Alita" may be suitable for me, because this role requires a pair of big eyes, a petite figure, and an ignorant face that can be an actor.

It's worth it because, after watching the movie today, I really made my role outstanding, and sometimes an actor can leave a deep impression in the audience's mind with a role in his life. I think the character of Alita will be the best screen image I left for the audience, she is cute, she is sentimental, she is smart, she is strong in the face of all difficulties, and even she is very forbearing.

I'm lucky to be able to meet and play such a role. So it's worth it to wait all the time, it's worth it. Pan Zhilin replied.

Indeed, one of the luckiest things an actor can do is play the role that best suits her in a classic movie. It is said that the eyes are the windows of the soul, and the most difficult performance for actors is the performance of the eyes, and in the movie "Alita", your eyes are enlarged, which will test the performance ability of your eyes even more, once there is no drama in the eyes, it will be infinitely magnified. How did you overcome this? ”

Tu Jingwei's questions are still very professional.

"In order to practice this, the crew made me an artifact, and I brought ......," Pan Zhilin said and reached out to her assistant, who immediately brought her a pair of glasses.

"What is this?" Tu Jingwei asked curiously.

"It's a magnifying glass, which can magnify my eyes when I wear it, and then I can practice acting in front of the mirror." Pan Zhilin took out a large glasses as she spoke, and then showed it to everyone.

"Here, you put it on, let everyone see if their eyes are getting bigger."

Then after Pan Zhilin put it on, sure enough, her eyes became bigger.

"Wow, it's really, there's such an artifact......"

……

The next is Tu Jingwei and the creators' various questions, anyway, basically the reporters and the audience want to ask her seven, seven or eight, which leads to the media reporters in the later interactive links do not know what to ask.

Sometimes it's not a good thing that the host is too good.

As for the various celebrities in the circle, they are also praised by all kinds after being named, anyway, they don't need money to praise them, which means that there are many people who envy Pan Zhilin, and they all want to have good luck like her.

As soon as the premiere ended, the guests were invited to the State Guesthouse to participate in the thank-you reception, and the creators stayed at the scene to sign autographs and take photos with some of the audience.

As for the media reporters and film critics, they all received the corresponding gifts, and they could not participate in the thank-you reception, so they all left the venue to go back to writing.

"Let's go, everyone, drink less, and go to propaganda tomorrow." He Fang finally beckoned the creators to the cocktail party.

"Where is the new sci-fi film that plays with human nature"

"Every frame is a special effect that burns money, and the special effects technology is definitely one of the top five movie special effects in the world"

"I don't know a little audio-visual language, I can't understand where the new movie"

"[Alita: Battle Angel] is really unexpected, every frame is sci-fi, but every frame is played in the top audio-visual language"

"Where to Say: I Want to Tell a Different Science Fiction Story"

"Pan Zhilin: I'm lucky to wait for such a role"

"He Fangkua [Three-Body Problem] is the best science fiction in China, and there is no one who can win the Nobel Prize"

"Where to see the new film from these ten aspects"

"It's a film that definitely deserves to be watched many times, and many of the shots are textbook"
