    After Christmas passed, people realized that 2004 was gradually fading away.  n¡Ê, It¡¯s the season of year-end awards again. As a Chinese science fiction film, ¡°Source Code¡± has been shortlisted for the Saturn Award for the first time.  When the news spread back to China, it caused celebrations.  Compared with the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film and so on, it seems that the Saturn Award, which specifically rewards science fiction movies, seems to be more difficult to get nominated.  This award has always been exclusive to American films.  Chinese science fiction films have become the biggest favorites to win awards. With three nominations, Chen Tiandu almost single-handedly brought Chinese science fiction films to international standards.  For a time, the topic of Chinese science fiction in the domestic media went further and further: ""Source Code" opened the door to Chinese science fiction genre films and rewrote the history of domestically produced non-science fiction" Zhou Qunshu, who is also the film director, is also rising. The next film  The movie is being planned quickly, and I heard that someone has asked him to make a science fiction film.  In this regard, Chen Tiandu himself was non-committal in his evaluation, "Keep a normal mind, the success of this movie does not mean anything." He has been very active recently, showing off his funny attributes and comedy skills from time to time, and even his wife also  Come out and hack him occasionally.  As the number of self-defeats increases, the number of people recruiting anti-faithful people decreases. Haters of the rich and racists also gradually have a tendency to become fans.  He also gave a special interview to Tencent Entertainment and said: "Compared with the United States, which has relatively developed science fiction, science fiction TV, and science fiction movies, our country is still in its infancy, and it is difficult to make up for it with one or a few movies. "Source Code"  The success is just an accident, but at least it proves that there are also huge fans of science fiction movies in China. "It is rare to interview a master, and the editor boldly asked: "How big is the gap between domestic science fiction movies and world science fiction movies?" Chen Tiandu said seriously: "  The road must be taken step by step. Don¡¯t aim too high. ¡°The most developed science fiction culture in the world is science fiction, science fiction movies, and television. On the one hand, science fiction is still in its infancy.  We are not as mature as them. They have been doing this for nearly a century. On the other hand, the difference is in the audience market, social technology application index, our number of fans, groups, and audiences. Not only compared with the United States, they are also very different from Japan.  The gap is about one-tenth of the level in the United States. "The editor is quite worried, "Well, sir, will you make science fiction films in the future? Some people say that this "Source Code" is just a preparation for your next science fiction film.  Is this what I'm planning to do to test the waters?" Chen Tiandu laughed: "I'm just over 30 years old. Although I'm an uncle, I still have a long way to go. Of course I will make science fiction.  I firmly believe in the vast potential of the domestic market, and "Source Code" can indeed experiment with something, but deliberately using one movie to experiment is too much, and it is also disrespectful to other staff members about the next science fiction film.  . I do have some ideas, but the schedule is tight recently, and I don¡¯t know when it will be possible. If possible, I would like to set the story in China and make a real domestic science fiction blockbuster. "The editor is very excited."  Master, what do you think of the future of domestic science fiction movies? " When talking about this issue, Chen Tiandu looked quite serious and said: "To use five words to describe it, it is 'a long way to go'.  As I said, "Source Code" is just an example. There are actually not many directors in China who can make good science fiction films and are willing to make them. At least those seniors have little hope. I am very optimistic about the younger generation of directors whose ideas are easier.  Accept the concept of science fiction and be willing to try it. Maybe science fiction will rise in the next generation. But at this stage, domestic science fiction will still be weak, and the future Chinese film market will also be dominated by comedies and costume films.  There are no more and better genres. Just like Hong Kong back then, except for kung fu and comedy, it was difficult for other films to succeed. Of course, this is not to say that comedy films are not good, but they always feel that they are lacking something.  As we all know, our neighboring country, South Korea, is very popular in the genre film market and is developing rapidly. Their small territory only has a population of less than 50 million, but they can contribute far more to the film market than that of China. This is  It has to make people reflect. " "Of course, we don't have such lofty ideals when making this movie. We hope to change the future or something? We just hope to give Chinese genre films more science fiction to watch.  ¡± This report by Tencent Entertainment naturally attracted huge attention. ¡°Especially because he actually provoked his predecessors, saying that there are not many people who can make science fiction, and they have to look to the next generation of young people?! What are these words? Isn¡¯t it simply treason?  The reporters who were naturally booing followed their predecessors and asked questions. Cheng Kaige, who was busy promoting "The Promise", was caught in the act. Now that "The Promise" has not been released, he has not been scolded.  , so the great director is still very impressive, and he talked eloquently:"Chen Tiandu said that there are not many old guys in China who can make science fiction films. I think this old guy should include me. I admit that he has done things that many people have not done, but recently he is a bit unlike him. He is a bit  "Piao, he's a little arrogant. Whether he can make a good science fiction film is not something he can decide. It depends on the future." "So, do you want to make a science fiction film to teach Chen Tiandu a lesson?"  Kaige really wanted to teach Chen Tiandu a lesson, but he didn't dare to say it, otherwise he would have to drool over this huge group of fans. "Lessons are out of the question, let's communicate. The audience for science fiction is still very large. If  If I have the chance, I would like to try science fiction." Cheng Kaige replied. Compared to Chen Tiandu's outspoken provocation, he was quite polite.  But with the right to report back in the hands of reporters, it was not up to him what to think. For a while, headlines and reports like "Cheng Kaige challenged Chen Tiandu to make a science fiction film to let young people learn something" were flying all over the sky.  Audiences and netizens who didn't know why were surprised.  "Cheng Kaige is so frustrated that he refuses to film a good Peking Opera, but instead calls him a master. Do you really think that he is a world cinema master after filming "Farewell My Concubine"? His father didn't help with the filming. I am so excited about "The Promise"  I'm getting less and less optimistic about him. "" Hey, this is the first person who dares to stand up and challenge the great god. But I really don't like his courage.  "Stone." "Master Tiandu is really right. There are not many directors in China who can make good science fiction films. It's enough to just shoot the gods and ghosts." Chen Tian said.  None of them know.  And the focus of North America is definitely not on a small Saturn Award.  Regarding the dance on Christmas Eve, both of them were already good at comedy, not to mention there was a fat black guy who claimed to be a master of dancing, and Ao Pang was in a happy mood after winning the ball.  Naturally, we hit it off immediately.  They danced gracefully in the center of Phillips Stadium.  Dance is indeed dance, but whether it is beautiful or not is another matter.  No body, no face, no cleavage, just two big fat butts.  It actually made the audience laugh. If you have too much expectations, you will definitely be disappointed.  ¡°It¡¯s off-putting, why not let Chen Tiandu and Kate do a striptease!¡± Some fans were still unhappy after getting an advantage.  But in the United States, where news is ever-changing, it is always difficult for entertainment news to make headlines.  At the end of this election year, the White House will always be in the spotlight.  Bush won the election with a narrow margin in the final vote and completed his re-election.  This is the day when the results are announced.  I don¡¯t know how many Americans cried because they couldn¡¯t understand how George W. Bush won.  Chen Tiandu also hates this white guy.  But a win is a win, and who cares who the loser is.  Before he was officially sworn in, he had a very tight and intense schedule of activities to prepare for his inauguration.  At noon that day, George W. Bush also hosted a banquet at the White House for 146 distinguished guests, most of whom were his family members, relatives and friends. His parents, former US President Bush Sr. and his wife, were also guests.  Chen Tiandu and his wife were the only Chinese invited, but he refused to attend the banquet because he wanted to return to China to spend the New Year with his parents.  For this reason, there are still many media discussions.  But Americans all have political freedom, and they do not require everyone to like the President of the United States, not to mention that George W. Bush's chances of winning are not too disparate.  No matter how the outside world views it, Chen Tian has to admit that his first attempt to publicize the American political circle was a failure.  He was even considering whether to give Ao Guanhai some support, because the help at this time would definitely be more effective than giving away Bush's 10 million political donation in vain.  Since this was the first presidential inauguration in the United States since the "9/11" incident, the security measures on that day were almost watertight.  In the past few days, Washington, the capital of the United States, has been covered with snow, making Washington almost a silver-white world, which made George W. Bush's inauguration seem somewhat cold.  In the early morning of January 21st, Beijing time, the Capitol in Washington will hold the inauguration ceremony of the 55th President of the United States. Thousands of people will brave the biting cold to listen to Bush's inaugural speech outdoors.  Up to 500,000 people are expected to attend the inauguration ceremony and subsequent march in Washington.  ¡°The moment George W. Bush put his arm around his wife¡¯s waist and waved to the world, he was at the pinnacle of his life.  But this has nothing to do with Chen Tian anymore, after celebrating the New Year at home.  The two little guys are almost one year old, can crawl on the ground, and have two tender white teeth in their mouths.  It's so fleshy that no matter how much you hug it, you can't get enough of it.  As the year passed and the month passed, it was 2005. Chen Tiandu returned to the United States with his family and began a new career journey.  The 2004 North American box office rankings are also freshly released, with DreamWorks' "Shrek 2"Leading the list with ?441 million, "Spider-Man 2" was not as good as its predecessor in terms of sequel, only achieving 373 million US dollars, ranking second.  "The Passion of the Christ", which has been criticized by religious critics, unexpectedly ranked third with a box office of 370 million US dollars.  An example of a crazy sequel occurred in "Meet the Father-in-law 2".  It ranked fourth with a box office of US$270 million, surpassing Disney's animated champion "The Incredibles" with US$260 million.  "Harry Potter 3", which was released on the Christmas holiday, failed to continue the glory of the first episode. It gradually stabilized in the North American market and finally won a box office of US$249 million, ranking sixth.  After that, there is "Van Helsing" jointly produced by Matrix and Paramount, which grossed US$235 million at the box office in North America and crossed the 500 million threshold at the global box office.  This movie also helped Matrix maintain the honor of "must be among the top ten box office films every year".  (To be continued)
