really.
With the promotion of the Civil Aviation Administration.
The overseas release is also coming faster than expected.
Even half a month after it was released in China, promotion abroad has already begun.
Although the intensity of publicity is not as strong as in China.
With the popularity of tap water, many netizens abroad still know about this movie.
They commented on Twitter or YouTube.
"Oh my gosh, is Director Song releasing a new movie?"
"It seems that the prototype is still the China Airlines incident."
"Is he going to make a plane crash movie?"
"Oh my gosh, I don't think any of the big companies here are good at making airplane crash movies. Can Director Song really do it?"
Compared with domestic reviews.
Foreign netizens have a lot of doubts about this.
After all, the air crash movie is not the previous "Heroes of Fire". The air crash theme requires a lot of special effects support.
Does Song Hao really have such ability?
However, YouTube blogger Downey, who had been praising "Heroes of Fire" before, posted a video.
"You will never believe it. "Captain of China" is adapted from an accident in China. Through real footage, the captain turned the tide and kept more than 100 passengers safe and sound."
"Believe me, this movie will definitely be like the "Heroes of Fire" you saw last year."
Downey's video also made many foreign netizens curious.
After all, he was the one who recommended "Heroes of Fire" to everyone last time.
Now, "Captain China" is once again highly recommended, so some netizens also expressed that they will support it when the time comes.
Different from the last "Heroes of Fire", this time "Captain China" has a lot more films scheduled from the beginning.
When it was released in some theaters in the United States, some international students came to support it.
Of course, there are also some foreign netizens who come specially to watch.
Jack is one of them.
At dinner two days ago, his friend boasted that China had produced a very good air crash movie.
And I want to invite him to watch it together.
But as a veteran who had flown a fighter plane, Jack didn't have much interest.
Even on the roller coaster at the amusement park, he sat on it calmly and calmly over and over again.
"Stop it, those plane crash movies aren't all made with special effects." Jack didn't intend to watch them.
But his friend Schneider still insisted on taking him along.
Come to the theater.
Originally, Jack thought that no one would come to watch such a Chinese movie.
But I didn’t expect that when I bought the ticket, I was told by the waiter that only the seats in the back two rows were available.
Jack asked in confusion: "Are the seats in front sold out?"
The waiter explained: "Yes, sir, it is indeed sold out."
This surprised Jack.
Schneider was even more excited and said: "Hey, old man, this movie is really good, I won't lie to you."
Jack rolled his eyes at him: "You also know what I used to do. Do you think I would be interested in these ordinary plane crash movies?"
"Let's talk about whether you're interested or not." Schneider pushed him into the movie theater.
At first, Jack was a little helpless.
But thinking that this was his friend's wish after all, he had no choice but to calm down and watch.
You should always be with your brother.
After entering the cinema, Jack did not expect that there were so many people.
Not only Chinese students, but also many foreign audiences.
It’s as if what’s being released soon is not a Chinese movie, but a Hollywood blockbuster.
Without any time to think, he followed his friend to his seat and waited quietly.
The plot content at the beginning is very conventional.
Jack couldn't even feel the slightest excitement.
But half an hour after the movie aired, the plot officially entered.
The plane's front windshield began to crack.
This made Jack, who was already a little sleepy, suddenly widen his eyes.
Schneider on the side also asked: "Hey, man, what will happen if the front windshield breaks?"
"What else can we do? The worst result is that the two captains die and the plane crashes." Jack, who was born to fly a fighter jet, naturally understands the consequences of a broken windshield.
He is now somewhat curious and wants to know the follow-up of this movie.
At this moment, Schneider added: "I heard that this movie is adapted from a real incident in China. It seems that the front windshield of the plane at that time also broke."
Jack was shocked after hearing this: "Are you saying that on such a high mountain, at an altitude of nearly 10,000 meters, the glass broke?"
"Yes." Schneider nodded: "But the plane landed safely in the end. The captain was very powerful, so I brought you here."
Listening to these words, Jack felt incredible.
He believed that at an altitude of nearly 10,000 meters, if the front windshield of the aircraft was broken, the temperature in the cockpit would quickly drop to minus 40 degrees Celsius! !
Various instruments can be damaged.
And there are mountains and rivers below the plane.
Under such circumstances, could the captain drive the plane back to the ground and land safely? ? !
Besides, half of the first officer's body was still outside the cabin.
The temperature outside is now minus 40 degrees Celsius. If the first officer is not pulled back, he will probably lose his temperature and freeze to death.
Jack felt a little disbelieving.
But as the plot develops.
He found that every step the captain took in the play was a textbook operation.
He even adjusted the direction of the plane to save the first officer.
It's like fighting against death.
Try your best to get the person back from the God of Death! !
This also made Jack sit up and watch the next plot carefully.
Schneider on the side also noticed that Jack, who was cursing at the beginning, was now looking more seriously than anyone else.
It really smells good! !
With the captain's extraordinary perseverance, the plane finally stopped on the runway of the airport.
All of a sudden, ambulances, fire trucks and other department vehicles all rushed in the direction of the plane.
The final result was that, except for the two crew members who were injured, all the passengers were safe.
They thanked the captain one by one.
The captain also looked at everyone in shock, still in a daze.
The movie finally ends happily.
Schneider also praised at the end: "God, this movie is so good, right? Jack."
Jack looked at Schneider and asked, "Is this really a real incident?"
"That's right, if you don't believe me, you can search online and find out about broken windshields of Chinese aircraft." Schneider explained.
Jack searched.
Soon he found the information from that year.
After reading the original text inside, he realized how ignorant he had been just now.
It turns out that everything in the play is adapted from reality.
Even the co-pilot at the time appeared half-length outside the cabin.
The height at that time was also nearly 10,000 meters in the air.
There are mountains and rivers all underneath.
It was in such a harsh environment that it was almost impossible to survive. The captain used his extraordinary skills to successfully return the plane to the airport alive.
"It's too scary, it's really crazy." Jack said again and again.
Schneider listened to his emotion and then joked: "Hey, man, if it were you, can you guarantee that this plane will be returned to the airport safely?"
Jack shook his head and finally said: "No, I don't have such ability."
Schneider also gave a rare laugh: "I didn't expect that my old buddy actually has a humble side."
Jack then introduced the film to his other veterans.
"Captain China" soon became popular abroad.
Although there are not many movies scheduled, many foreigners who like Chinese movies have also gone to watch the movies due to their support for Song Hao.
For this reason, some people also compare "Captain China" with "Captain Sully" that was previously filmed abroad.
Some people think "Captain China" is good-looking.
Some people think "Captain Sully" is more realistic.
People from the two major factions also kept arguing.
And when Downey learned about this.
He was also very angry and made a video to accuse this behavior.
"I really didn't expect to compare "Captain China" with "Captain Sully"!"
"Shit! The two movies are not of the same genre at all, how can they be compared? "Captain of China" is a complete air crash movie, which restored the Sichuan Airlines incident with a very high degree of restoration! The plot of the whole movie is compact and there is no sloppiness! It is to promote the Chinese crew’s first mission when encountering danger and the safety of passengers’ lives!”
"The film "Captain Sully" uses the successful forced landing of a plane on a river after a plane crash as a hook to mock the lack of brains of the people in the investigation bureau. Based on the results of computer simulations, the captain who rescued people was tried, and finally through a series of sandstorms The operation proves that when the plane was in an accident, the heroic captain who rescued people made a correct judgment at the time!"
"I'm not saying that Sully is not good to watch, it is actually a good movie! But there are always people on the Internet comparing two completely different movies?!"
As soon as this review video was released, those who boasted about "Captain Sully" also became quieter.
Indeed, at that time Captain Sally almost faced jail time for flying the plane on the river.
The Bureau of Investigation did not even consider rescuing the passengers safely.
Instead, countless simulations were conducted, and the final result was the heroic captain at the time, and his judgment was correct.
This also led to his eventual avoidance of jail time.
But "Captain China" is different, it really puts saving people first.
This is also where the concepts promoted by the two movies differ.
"Captain China" gradually became popular abroad.
The foreign Civil Aviation Investigation Bureau also realized that something was wrong. They ordered major theaters to stop scheduling "Captain of China".
After all, the last time "Heroes of Fire" was released, many people were dissatisfied with their own firefighters.
Now China's "Captain of China" is exactly the same again.
So the higher authorities intervened forcefully.
Faced with such an experience, foreign movie lovers are naturally not disappointed.
They actively protested and even wrote letters.
Due to helplessness, the Civil Aviation Investigation Bureau did not dare to make any announcement and could only allow "Captain China" to continue to be released.
In less than a week, the box office has reached 4.7 million US dollars.
The results were even better than Song Hao originally expected.
And here in China.
"Captain China" still maintains a strong momentum.
It is currently approaching 2.4 billion.
Major software also predicted the box office data of "Captain China".
They all believe that "Captain China" can exceed 3 billion.
It may even surpass "I'm Not the God of Medicine".
Of course, this is only possible.
After all, the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is a phenomenal work.
Song Hao didn't pay much attention.
These days.
He has finished writing the script for "Ocean Paradise".
He then invited Xue Lu to the office again.
When Xue Lu looked at the script of "Ocean Paradise" handed over by Song Hao, she was dumbfounded.
Song Hao is a geek, he has known it for a long time.
Not only can he direct plays, but he can also write his own scripts.
But what she never expected was that Song Hao would also write literary films.
This autism-themed story is also very touching.
It was as if I had seen it with my own eyes or experienced it myself.
Xue Lu couldn't put it down after reading the script.
She looked at Song Hao with some joy and asked cautiously: "Director Song, is this script really for me?"
Song Hao nodded: "Yes, what do you think of this script?"
"Very good, very good." Xue Lu was very happy, as if she was holding a priceless treasure in her hand.
She knows what it's like for people with autism and understands that they need more care.
So being able to personally make a movie about such a subject can be regarded as a small contribution to this special group.
Then, Xue Lu asked again: "Director Song, who are the actors?"
"I'm still helping you contact the actors. Don't worry. You should read the script thoroughly first and put as much emotion into it as possible." Song Hao explained.
Xue Lu replied: "Okay, don't worry, Director Song, I will definitely do it with a 100% attitude."
After Xue Lu left, Song Hao also stood up and prepared to leave.
He has already booked an appointment with an international superstar.
Actor Mr. Jet Li.
As early as two days ago, when Li Lianjie learned that Song Hao invited him to film, he was very interested.
And it’s also a literary drama.
This surprised him even more.
So the two made an appointment to meet each other.
In a private room of a high-end hotel, Song Hao met Li Lianjie who was drinking tea.
Maybe he hasn't been filming much in recent years, so he is rarely active in everyone's sight.
A little older.
But the spirit is still there.
Song Hao quickly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and said respectfully: "Hello, Teacher Li."
Li Lianjie was also very humble. He nodded with a smile: "Quickly, please sit down."
"Teacher Li, this time I invite you to film a literary drama. Why don't you read the script first?" Song Hao took out the script.
Li Lianjie was also very interested: "Okay, to be honest, you are the first one to ask me for a literary drama in so many years."
Finally, he took the script and read it carefully.
Looking at it, Li Lianjie seemed to be emotional.
His eyes were a little moist.
Half an hour later, he looked at Song Hao and said, "I will film this story for you for free without any payment."
After hearing this, Song Hao also thanked: "Thank you, Teacher Li, for your support."
Then he also expressed his thoughts: "By the way, Mr. Li, I plan to release this film for free, and we will authorize it to be broadcast for free on multiple video platforms."
As soon as these words came out, Li Lianjie, who had always admired Song Hao, immediately gave a thumbs up and even admired him!
