How to evaluate the ultimate trailer of Shanghai Fortress?

Science fiction movies have always been the weakness of domestic movies. The gap in the domestic sci-fi movie market does not come from the audience's weak awareness of watching movies, but the fundamental problem of insufficient industrial productivity. The Wandering Earth's success just proves China's hard power in making sci-fi movies and its progress in film industrial production, and also injects a shot in the arm into China's sci-fi movies, showing the world the hard power of China's sci-fi in production and market. Shanghai Fortress, which will be taken over in the summer, is also a China science fiction work to be reckoned with. So what's worth seeing in this movie?

Watch a huge mothership.

If the biggest highlight of this sci-fi movie is naturally the giant mothership that invaded the earth! There are two alien forces in this film-Alpha civilization and Delta civilization!

Simply put, Alpha civilization is a kind and loving friend, and Delta civilization is a raging villain. And the giant mothership that invaded the earth was written by Delta.

According to the book Shanghai Fortress

"That is actually a huge air carrier, with the longest axis reaching a quarter of the diameter of the moon. The absorption of light radiation on its surface makes it impossible for us to capture it at night, but it will be revealed during the solar eclipse and cast a huge shadow on the surface of the earth with the moon. "

It can be seen that this mother ship is huge!

If you want to portray such a huge ship on the screen, the money is self-evident. Whether you become a god or a ghost depends on whether the crew uses their heart or not. The purple nebula flowing out of the trailer can feel its shock!

Pay attention to the double bubble defense system

After talking about Delta's evil ship, we will talk about the "high-tech" technology of Alpha civilization, the messenger of justice.

In order to help the earth people resist the attack of Delta civilization, Alpha civilization helped the earth people to establish a set of ultra-modern fortifications-bubble defense system!

In the words of the original novel, "the height of the cloud is about 1700 meters. At the height of 1500 meters, I encountered a foam defense interface covering the whole of Shanghai, like an upside-down pot. "

This pot is the fortress in the movie "Shanghai Fortress".

In this way, the weapon of Delta civilization is a spear, and the weapon of Alpha civilization is a shield. Who can win this conflict?

Furthermore, the novel also mentions a "Lu Chen Plan", which seems to be a cool way of fighting, but I haven't read the novel "Shanghai Fortress". If you have, you can explain it a little.

Watch three alien predators

As mentioned in the last article, both the giant ship and the giant kettle are huge and magnificent buildings. If they can be successfully shaped and put on the big screen, the movie "Shanghai Fortress" will undoubtedly become a classic!

But the third view has nothing to do with vastness, because the mecha predator that follows is much smaller and more exquisite. In the trailer, the "little steel ball" pops out of the big wheel. After these steel balls landed, they became mecha predators.

This idea has some visual sense of "scattering beans to build soldiers" in ancient China mythology. It can be seen that Jiangnan, the original author of "Shanghai Fortress", is also full of brains! Seeing from the trailer that the shapes of these mechs are also made by conscience.

These predators did not deliberately imitate the concept of robots in Europe and America. According to director Huatao Teng, "There are four wars designed in the film. In order to make each battle achieve the expected combat effect, the predator's stereotype was changed more than 40 times before it was finally completed. "

The book "Shanghai Fortress" describes the story that aliens invaded the earth, Shanghai fell, and a group of young people rose up against the invaders. However, the movie version of Shanghai Fortress is a love science fiction film. The original has been changed in many places, and the film version has no meaning in the original.

In the future world, aliens will attack the earth, and Shanghai will be the last safe place on the earth. During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the hero Jiang Yang fell in love with the commander Lan Lin, but Jiang Yang also had a rich girl girlfriend named Yiyi. Between the two relationships, Jiangnan is hard to give up. It was at this time that the "Lu Chen Plan" was launched.

The "Lu Chen Plan" is to sink Shanghai underground to resist the invasion of alien civilization. As a participant in this plan, Jiang Yang has been considering whether to tell Lan Lin the secret, and he can't convince himself to confess to Lan Lin. However, in the last step of the plan, Lan Lin died for the task. Ten years later, when Jiang Yang turned on his mobile phone, he found the short message sent by Lan Lin and the chance of survival won by Lan Lin.

As we all know, the production cost of science fiction movies is extremely expensive. It is not difficult to find that as long as it is a science fiction movie, the cost of the whole movie is very high. This means that producers and companies have higher box office costs and higher investment risks. In addition, sci-fi movies have higher requirements for actors' acting skills. Most of the shots face non-physical performances, and special effects shots rely entirely on post-production.
