The Earth's going on a trip once again! Whether you have watched The Wandering Earth(《流浪地球》) in 2019 or not, the name must be well-known to you. Since it was China's first science fiction(科幻) film, the cinemas were soon so crowded when it was on. The Wandering Earth Ⅱ came out on the first day of the Lunar New Year in 2023. It has become the newest hit.
As a prequel(前篇) to The Wandering Earth in 2019, the new movie describes the fact that humans are in danger of dying out for some reasons. To survive, they make different plans. Finally, they decide to build tens of thousands of huge engines on the surface of the Earth. They plan to drive the Earth to the nearest solar system. The movie shows how humans fight against disasters (灾难). In order to save the Earth, a group of young people have to step forward to start a race against time for life and death.
“The creators of The Wandering Earth Ⅱ are very similar to the characters in the movie. Their great courage and creative spirit are the engine to push the ‘planet’ of science fiction into the future,” said Liu Cixin, writer of the story The Wandering Earth and the novel The Three-body Problem. “We all know that China's science fiction still has a long way to go. Luckily, there are a group of people who are working very hard for it.”
From The Wandering Earth four years ago to this year's prequel, director Guo Fan always hopes people can remember the idea expressed in them. Because of the love for our homeland, we won't escape from the Earth in a spaceship, but choose to wander with the planet at last.
