Chapter 94
Amidst the Tumultuous Storm
"Old Tian, Old Su, get your old bones moving! Lin Yu's new movie has been released, and this kid's made quite a splash. We at Beijing Film Academy have to lend a hand!"
"clear!"
"Do I need you, old man, to remind me? I've already done all the help I could..."
Orange Sky 18...
"Those who haven't started yet, hurry up and get moving! Hu Jun, Zhang Hanyu, and Xia Yu from our company are all in Director Lin's movie. Let's not let our own people down."
"Understood, Sister Hua."
"OK."
……
"Professor Chen Daoming, could you please help promote this?"
"Hehe... Jinghua, this movie by Director Lin has practically mobilized the entire entertainment industry! The publicity is so extensive, it's like the Martian is everywhere!"
"Hehe! After all, Lin Yu is a hot commodity right now. Whether it's a company or an artist involved, who wouldn't want to get associated with Starlight Entertainment?"
"Yeah, that makes sense. Well... Jinghua, could you use my account to post this for me too?"
Mango TV…
"Teacher He, you've added quite a bit of personal information today! Director Lin is indebted to you."
"Nana, if you can't speak properly, then shut your mouth! What do you mean I added personal information? That was what the higher-ups told me to add."
"Huh? No way!!"
Scenes like these are playing out continuously across the country...
Furthermore, while Lin Yu led the main cast on a promotional tour, several companies also brought together several important supporting actors from the film and organized a series of promotional activities, visiting cinemas across the country to promote the film, interact with the audience, sign autographs, and take photos.
The supporting actors also kept introducing the film's content and features to the audience, increasing their anticipation and enthusiasm, hoping to boost the film's popularity and box office, especially to gain the approval of their boss and even Lin Yu's favor.
What if Lin Yu really goes blind... well, and falls asleep and takes a liking to me? Wouldn't that be like taking off?
For "The Martian," a groundbreaking sci-fi blockbuster that was unprecedented in China, film critics have been somewhat more restrained:
Lin Yu's "The Martian" can be said to have pioneered a new era for domestic science fiction blockbusters. In addition to the various space rescue scenes in the film, it also highlights individual heroism and the spirit of unity in China, where one side helps another in times of trouble.
The protagonist is left alone on Mars, which is an extremely desperate situation, especially since contacting Earth was very difficult from the beginning. Under such circumstances, most people would break down.
But the protagonist in Lin Yu's film possesses an absolutely strong will. He first solved his food shortage problem by using his botanical knowledge, then began to actively contact the Earth, and finally achieved rescue.
The protagonist's experiences are beyond the reach of ordinary people. His ability to handle situations and his extensive knowledge in various fields enable him to analyze the most urgent matters in his current situation and to survive through various skills. He is a true Martian version of wilderness survival.
It's clear that director Lin Yu is very good at understanding the audience's mindset.
Moreover, the protagonist depicted by Lin Yu is not a pessimistic or negative person; he is optimistic and humorous. Actor Hu Jun's performance actually alleviates some of the despair portrayed in the film, creating a consistent feeling that the protagonist will definitely be saved. This isn't because he has a protagonist's halo, but rather because his optimism, confidence, and other personality traits give the viewer the sense that he won't die easily. It must be said that Lin Yu's grasp of the story and character is quite excellent.
The film's setting is also quite interesting. While the desolation of Mars is a major obstacle to human survival, it is also a kind of scenery. The arrangement of the Martian landscape is quite pleasant and does not feel hopeless.
The protagonist spent hundreds of days on Mars, facing the desolate Martian landscape every day. However, watching the stunning Martian sunset every day seemed like a worthwhile experience, at least in my opinion. In such a desolate environment, being able to appreciate the sunset was a worthwhile thing.
Therefore, people should never give up, nor should they lose confidence in life because of difficulties. Instead, they should constantly strive to make their lives comfortable, which requires people to have eyes and hearts that can discover beauty.
To a certain extent, I think *The Martian* is suitable for watching when you're feeling down or facing difficulties in life, as it gives us hope to keep going. Furthermore, the film also includes scenes about family and love, which can be quite therapeutic.
Of course, all of this is on the premise that others are also doing their best to save you. The most desperate thing for the protagonist who is trapped on Mars is not death, but the uncertainty of whether the other party will actually come to rescue him while waiting for rescue.
The film depicts the numerous difficulties faced in rescuing the protagonist, which are comparable to the challenges of surviving alone on Mars. Time is of the essence, and the mission is extremely difficult. Not only the protagonist, but many people would feel that this is an impossible task. Everyone feels a sense of despair, but no one shows it. They are all working hard to rescue the protagonist.
At the same time, the film also tells the story of the Chinese spirit of helping each other in times of trouble, as well as international cooperation. To be precise, aerospace technology is a secret science of each country, and it is difficult to cooperate easily. This is a difficult thing now and in the future. This means sharing aerospace technology. From this perspective, the film actually hopes for future technological cooperation between countries. This is the future of the development of Earth's technology, rather than fighting alone.
The film's pacing is also very good. The main storyline revolves around the protagonist's self-rescue on Mars, while also including two other storylines: one on Earth and the other involving the astronauts on the spacecraft, who are the protagonist's teammates.
The three storylines intertwine, preventing viewer fatigue and easing the tension that often grips the film. The other two storylines don't overshadow the main plot, but rather propel it forward through the actions of ground and astronaut personnel, preventing the film from becoming a mere solo survival show on Mars. This interweaving of different storylines is one of the strengths of *The Martian*.
Overall, I think The Martian is a highly watchable film that also has a certain depth and logic.
Therefore, I highly recommend the movie "The Martian". I believe this film will not disappoint the audience.
