Cost Comparison of Car Maintenance for 1.2T/1.6L//Hybrid Corolla

  Corolla has a history of 50 years since it was listed in 1966, and has undergone 10 changes. From the first generation of 1.1L, it gradually upgraded to 1.2L, 1.3L, 1.4L, 1.5L, 1.6L, 1.8L, 2.0L and even 2.4L in the North American market.

  As the latest domestic model, the 11th generation Corolla has four displacement options, 1.2T, 1.6L, 1.8L and 1.8L hybrid engines. Then, the maintenance cost of these four models in the later period must be the most concerned by users when buying a car. Is the turbine the most expensive to maintain? Dual-engine hybrid has the lowest fuel consumption? After reading the article, I believe you have your own decision. (Because the attention of 1.8L model is low, it is not discussed in this article.)

● Warranty/maintenance cycle

  Corolla’s entire vehicle is guaranteed for 3 years or 100,000 kilometers (whichever comes first). In addition, the warranty period of Corolla Twin Engine is 8 years or 200,000 kilometers (whichever comes first). In addition, since 2014, the maintenance cycle of Corolla has been extended from 5,000 km to 10,000 km.

  The maintenance cycle of naturally aspirated engine, hybrid engine and supercharged engine are all 10,000 kilometers. In actual maintenance, some 4S shops may recommend shortening the maintenance interval on the grounds of poor road conditions in China, but I think it is no problem to use fully synthetic 10,000 kilometers for maintenance once for general road conditions.

● Maintenance price

  It is rumored that the maintenance price of supercharged models is much more expensive than that of naturally aspirated models. This is not wrong, but it is not rigorous. Because supercharged vehicles usually have higher requirements for engine oil, at least semi-synthetic or all-synthetic engine oil should be used. Naturally aspirated vehicles have lower requirements for engine oil, and mineral oil can meet normal driving needs. But if you use the same synthetic engine oil, the maintenance price is almost the same.

  There is little difference in maintenance price among the three displacement models. The maintenance accessories of the 1.2T and twin-engine models are exactly the same (the oil consumption is slightly different, which can be ignored), and the 1.6L model is only different in the air filter, which is cheaper than the other two models in 32 yuan. Because the air filter element only needs to be replaced once every 40,000 kilometers within 60,000 kilometers, the total maintenance cost within 60,000 kilometers is only cheaper than that of supercharged and twin-engine models in 32 yuan.

  There is another detail. Because of the kinetic energy recovery system, the dual-engine model will have the function of lightly stepping on the brakes when driving at low speed. Therefore, the frequency of disc replacement is longer than other models.

● Fuel consumption

  According to the data of car home netizens’ word of mouth, the fuel consumption of the 1.2T model is.7.3L/100km, and the fuel consumption of 1.6L vehicle is8.1L/100km, the fuel consumption of twin-engine models is4.7L/100km (all comprehensive fuel consumption). It is worth mentioning that the motor operation of the twin engines can save a lot of fuel when driving under urban congested roads, while the fuel consumption is similar to that of ordinary gasoline vehicles when driving at high speed.

Home of the car

Corolla car cost   1.2T 1.6L Shuangqing price 527 yuan 527 yuan 527 yuan Total maintenance price of 60,000 kilometers 3408 yuan 3376 yuan 3408 yuan oil consumption 7.3L/100km 8.1L/100km 4.7L/100km Fuel cost per kilometer 0.47 yuan 0.52 yuan 0.3 yuan Total annual fuel cost 9359 yuan 10384 yuan 6025 yuan Note:Based on the oil price of 6.41 yuan /L, which is 20,000 kilometers per year.

  From the above data, the annual fuel cost difference between the 1.6L model with the highest fuel consumption and the twin-engine model with the lowest fuel consumption is about 4,000 yuan, and the 1.2T model is about 1000 yuan cheaper than the 1.6L model (calculated by driving 20,000 kilometers a year). The more kilometers you drive, the greater the fuel cost difference.

  The higher the oil price, the more obvious the advantages of dual-engine. Before the problems of short battery life and difficult charging of most pure electric vehicles are solved, the hybrid electric vehicle is the best "returning weapon".

● Summary

  Compared with the most concerned 1.2T GL (priced at 119,800 yuan) and the twin-engine 1.8L CVT Pioneer Edition (priced at 139,800 yuan), the twin-engine car is 20,000 yuan more expensive, and the configuration of engine anti-theft, head airbag, heat insulation glass,, and shift paddles is more fuel-efficient and quite cost-effective.

  I believe that after reading the article, everyone has a steelyard in mind. If your mileage exceeds 20,000 kilometers a year and your budget is sufficient, then the double engine is undoubtedly the best choice, and the low fuel consumption in the later period will make you return to your original position quickly. As for how to choose 1.2T and 1.6L, different people have different opinions. The advantage of 1.6L engine is that it has a large number of vehicles, and the later maintenance is convenient and easy, while the advantage of 1.2T engine is fuel economy and lower emissions. However, small-displacement turbines are the current trend. If I were you, I would choose the latter, because compared with the 1.6L model, it is only 2,000 yuan more expensive, and I enjoy the updated technology and environmentally-friendly low-carbon life.

Beijing "Little Academician" solves life problems. There are also secrets in the plastic wrap.

Wang Sihan, Wang Peiyuan and Feng Liangda studied plastic wrap.

[Yellow axis and white axis plastic wrap should be distinguished]

When summer comes, watermelon has become a weapon for many families to relieve summer heat. Many people may have had this experience: watermelon can’t be eaten, wrapped in plastic wrap and put in the refrigerator for the next meal. Have you ever noticed the color of the shaft core of the plastic wrap used at home? Feng Liangda from Beijing No.2 Experimental Primary School found that the core of plastic wrap at home was white; And the core of the plastic wrap used in the watermelon stall near home is yellow. What’s the difference between plastic wrap with different shaft core colors? Which plastic wrap is better? Feng Liangda and his friends Wang Peiyuan and Wang Sihan launched an investigation together.

Under the guidance of parents and teachers, the three people learned through reading the materials that the raw material of white core plastic wrap is polyethylene PE, and the raw material of yellow core plastic wrap is PVC. As early as 2009, China issued the national standard of "Plastic Self-adhesive cling film for food", which covered the types of PEPVC cling film, and mentioned that "PVC cling film is only suitable for packaging fresh food such as vegetables and fruits that are not directly imported".

Three people used the equipment of the school and Xicheng Science and Technology Museum to carry out the combustion experiment, which verified the difference of the two materials. It was found that the solution that absorbed the gas released by the combustion of the yellow shaft core was acidic, and after adding silver nitrate, the solution produced white precipitate, which indicated that the yellow shaft core plastic wrap contained chlorine. The solution that absorbed the gas released by the combustion of the white shaft core was neutral, and there was no precipitation after adding silver nitrate, indicating that it did not contain chlorine.

So, what is the actual use of different types of plastic wrap? The three people also chose 14 large supermarkets, 22 small supermarkets, 10 mobile stalls, 7 farmers’ markets and 27 families for investigation. The results showed that the utilization rate of white-axis plastic wrap in large supermarkets was 57.1%; In small supermarkets, mobile stalls and farmers’ markets, the utilization rate of white-axis plastic wrap is 0; 85.2% private families use white-axis plastic wrap.

At the same time, although most regular supermarkets can use plastic wrap correctly, the staff are not clear about the material specifications; Even among families with high qualified rate, only 59.3% of them know the requirements for proper use, and 40.7% know the material of plastic wrap. "It shows that many people don’t know what kind of plastic wrap to use, and many times they don’t notice that the merchants use yellow-core PVC plastic wrap for them."

To this end, the research team suggested that in the packaging of food plastic wrap, in addition to the material of plastic wrap, it is also necessary to indicate the application scope of plastic wrap, and at the same time, the temperature range of safe heating of different plastic wrap should be clarified to remind merchants and consumers to standardize their use. In addition, we should strengthen the inspection of food cling film for small supermarkets, farmers’ markets, fruit merchants and mobile food stalls, and formulate punishment measures for illegal use of cling film; At the same time, strengthen publicity, such as posting posters of plastic wrap at bus stops, subways, networks, supermarkets, shopping malls, etc., to publicize the differences in the use of plastic wrap, and promote the standardized production of plastic wrap through consumption supervision.

[Express envelopes cannot be "one size fits all"]

Li Xinyang, from the middle school affiliated to Beijing Normal University, is a "drama-chasing" expert. She always places an order online for any performance she wants to see. But every time she opens the express envelope, she will find that the big express envelope is a bit "overqualified" compared with the small performance notes.

After paying attention to this issue, Li Xinyang found that the phenomenon of "small content and big envelope" is not uncommon. In addition to her own performance tickets, when the credit card applied by her mother was delivered, it was also packed in a big express envelope. In fact, the waste of disposable products caused by express packaging has been paid attention to. According to public reports, in 2016, the number of materials used in express packaging in China was staggering-according to statistics, in 2016, about 3.2 billion woven bags, about 6.8 billion plastic bags, 3.7 billion packing boxes and 330 million rolls of adhesive tape were consumed … But in contrast, the unreasonable use of envelopes has not attracted the attention of society.

What is the current situation of using express envelopes over size? What are the reasons behind it? How to solve it? After communicating with the instructor, Li Xinyang decided to take this as his research topic.

Through the questionnaire survey, Li Xinyang found that 97.16% of the public had mailed the tickets by express mail, and 90.34% of them bought the tickets through the Internet. Express mail has become the first choice of the public. In addition, the use of express envelopes by the public is not limited to sending printed materials. In the process of using express envelopes, 59.09% of the public mailed documents, 55.11% of the public mailed invoices, 46.02% of the public mailed certificates, 39.77% of the public mailed books, 32.95% of the public mailed tickets for performances, 17.61% of the public mailed greeting cards, and 39.77% of them mailed cards.

The courier company mainly provides 324X229mm No.9 envelope; The actual measurement shows that the size of the general performance ticket is 80X200mm, and only the No.5 envelope of 220X110mm is needed. The size of the credit card is 54.0X85.6mm, and only the No.3 envelope of 176X125mm is needed. According to the survey, nearly 40% of the respondents think that the size of the express envelope is too large, and over 60% think that the size of the express envelope should be based on demand.

In the investigation of the mailer, Li Xinyang learned that if five different types of envelopes are required to be carried, most of the postal and courier parties said that they would be troubled by carrying trouble and increasing the load.

On the basis of investigation, Li Xinyang put forward his own suggestions. She believes that the State Postal Administration should issue technical specifications for the express delivery industry. For express delivery envelope manufacturers, they can design and produce express delivery envelopes with different patterns according to the different needs of the public while ensuring the basic specifications of express delivery envelopes. In addition, she suggested that courier companies should provide personalized services and prepare courier envelopes with reasonable sizes. For example, there are many printed materials such as documents mailed by enterprises, and envelope No.9 can be the main one; Prepare the No.5 express envelope suitable for the theater and ticketing business network. You can also increase the size of the pick-up in the courier company APP or WeChat smart applet, so that the courier can prepare the courier envelope with a convenient size in advance and reduce the burden on the courier.

At the same time, in her opinion, the cost of large envelopes and small envelopes should be different; If the public prepares their own envelopes, the mailing fee can be appropriately reduced. "I hope to attract more public attention to this phenomenon and work together to make due contributions to environmental protection."

[Restaurant self-service seasoning safety is worrying]

Liu Yifei from Beijing No.2 Experimental Primary School is a little gourmet, especially fond of rice noodles and barbecues. After eating too much, she began to find that in order to meet the different tastes of customers, such restaurants would equip their tables with self-help public seasonings such as Chili oil, soy sauce and vinegar. Once, after seeing the report that the hygienic condition of street stalls was worrying, she came up with the idea of investigating the self-service spices in restaurants.

After searching on the Internet, it is known that the microbial detection of single seasoning such as soy sauce and vinegar on the dining table is carried out according to the state standard of pre-packaging before unpacking; However, in the current National Standards for Food Safety, there is no hygienic evaluation standard for spicy spices and mixed seasonings such as pepper and salt and Chili sauce. After consulting experts from the Food and Drug Administration, Liu Yifei learned that for condiments on the table, the national regulations only clearly pointed out that self-service condiments could not detect pathogenic microorganisms, but more detailed microbial inspection standards were still lacking; At present, there is no corresponding operating standard for the sub-packaging of soy sauce vinegar.

So, is the seasoning easy to breed microorganisms? After consulting the experts in xuanwu hospital Bacteriology Room, she learned that the seasoning bottles in restaurants are frequently used, and if they are not cleaned and disinfected regularly, they will probably become "invisible killers" that endanger people’s health. Among them, there are three reasons that may lead to the pollution of spices: on the one hand, unclean packaging operation will lead to the pollution of spices at the source; On the other hand, the containers containing spices in restaurants are not clean, not cleaned and disinfected according to relevant regulations, and the sources of customers are complex, which leads to secondary pollution of spices; In addition, the self-service seasoning does not follow the preservation method stipulated by the manufacturer, and it is easy to cause the growth of pathogenic microorganisms in open containers, at room temperature and for a long time.

His own sampling experiment also confirmed the expert’s statement. Liu Yifei tested 24 seasonings from 8 restaurants: 8 sauces, the qualified rate of total colonies was 25%, and the qualified rate of Escherichia coli was 50%; Eight vinegar samples, the qualified rate of the total number of colonies was 25%, and the qualified rate of Escherichia coli was 50%. Intestinal pathogens were detected in one vinegar sample. Due to the lack of national hygiene standards, it is impossible to judge whether it belongs to the normal range, but mold was detected in 50% of spices, and intestinal pathogens were detected in one spice (Chili sauce).

In this regard, Liu Yifei suggested that relevant departments should further improve the scope of food microbial detection of seasonings, and include those that do not have hygienic standards at present, such as spicy spices and mixed seasonings, into the detection targets to supplement the standards; At the same time, the operating specifications, seasoning storage methods, container standardization and other aspects of the restaurant service personnel’s sub-packaging of spices into small containers will be included in the "Food Safety Operating Specifications for Catering Services", and supervision will be strengthened to promote the self-management and self-control of the catering service industry.

Changde, Hunan Province: Pickup trucks grabbing yellow lights can’t cause accidents before rear-end collision.

       CCTV News:Two days ago, a thrilling scene was staged at an intersection in Changde City, Hunan Province. A pickup truck failed to grab the yellow light when passing through the intersection. As a result, it rear-ended a car in front of it. The illegally loaded steel pipe on the pickup truck flew out of the roof and hit the front car and scattered on the road. Fortunately, the accident did not cause any injuries.

       After the police on duty at the intersection found the accident, they immediately went forward to check and found that the pickup truck was obviously modified. The police investigation learned that the pickup truck driver Longmou was engaged in building decoration work, and privately welded steel frames at the head and tail of the pickup truck to facilitate the loading of goods. On the same day, Longmou drove the steel pipe to the construction site. When driving to the intersection of the incident, he saw that the traffic lights were about to turn red and wanted to grab the yellow light, but the black car in front slowed down and stopped. So Longmou quickly stepped on the brakes, but he still chased the front car. The huge inertia and the weak binding caused the steel pipe carried on the car to fly out and hit the front car. 

       In the end, the police decided that the pickup truck driver Longmou was fully responsible for the accident, and fined 500 yuan for the illegal act of changing the shape of the motor vehicle without authorization and registering the relevant technical data, and ordered him to immediately restore the vehicle to its original condition.

North American box office: "Transformers 5" topped the box office and hit a series of new lows

1905 movie network news Last weekend (06.23-06.25), the box office revenue in North America totaled $141.5 million, down 25.7% from the previous week. The performance of (hereinafter referred to as) in the United States is weak, and it grinds out $69.09 million in the first five days, which is the lowest in the first week of the series. "Explosive shell" has a routine of big scenes, and it seems that it can no longer coax North American audiences. The word-of-mouth score has fallen to a new low, and the freshness of rotten tomatoes is 15%. It is accused of being boring, long and boring. I have no love at home, but I still rely on other places for more help. The overseas box office of is still evergreen, with a total of $265 million in the world in the first week. Although it is less than the fourth, it is close and in good condition. In terms of small-scale screening, Amazon’s R-rated romantic comedy set a new record for single-theater box office revenue, with an average single-theater box office revenue of 87,000 US dollars, the highest in 2017. The box office of a single theater is 60 thousand dollars, and most of the film reviews praise the exquisite artistic conception of the picture.

In terms of old films, Shenwei has not diminished. In the fourth week, it pocketed $25.17 million, a decrease of only 39%. In 24 days, the local box office totaled $318 million, which is expected to surpass the total box office of $363 million, catching up with Marvel Comics (currently $380 million); At present, the global box office has reached $650 million, and after this week, it is expected to surpass ($665 million) to become the box office champion in American women-directed films. In the next week, the decline rate was 53%, which was lower than 60%, which was relatively stable. Now, the total domestic box office in 10 days totaled 99.8 million US dollars, and the total global box office was 141 million US dollars. Man-eating shark thriller is the best of the four films opened last week. Last week, it earned $7.43 million, a decrease of 34%, and the box office in 10 days totaled $24.26 million. The biography of Tupac Shakur, a famous late rapper, is really eye-catching, with a drop of 78% in the next week and a total box office of $38.64 million in 10 days. It seems that more profit margins have to be boosted by overseas.

The lowest overseas strong support scene in the first week of "Transformers 5" box office series

Recommended star rating: ★★★☆.

Obviously, blackening Optimus Prime is also difficult to retain the audience’s waning enthusiasm for autobots. Michael bay’s film, as the only film with a large-scale painting last week, earned $69.09 million in 4,069 theaters in the United States in five days (including $45.3 million in the box office from Friday to Sunday), which was only 57% of the previous film, making it the lowest box office in the series. Looking back, in the first six days of 2007, the box office was $155 million. In the first five days of 2009, the local box office was $200 million, and the box office was $180 million. The time was short, and it also collected $100 million in three days. The local box office peak of the whole Transformers series was the second film ($402 million), and then it continued to decline. However, in view of the fact that the next fastest heavyweight new film will have to wait until July 7th, there is still hope for the "online duration" of Transformers 5. If it exceeds Transformers 4: Extinction and Rebirth in 2014, the final domestic box office volume is expected to be around $140 million.

The rating on the Internet was a curse. Transformers 5 scored B+ in the current cinema, IMDb scored 5.3, MTC27 scored 27, the freshness of rotten tomatoes was 15%, and the freshness of audiences was 58%. The main points of spitting are as follows: 1. It turned out to be just a long and boring trailer of cheat people and a $250 million Hasbro toy advertisement. Rolling Stone magazine said: "It makes other blockbusters in summer look like classics of famous teachers." 2. I really don’t know what michael bay is for. "Certainly not praise, also won’t be the audience’s favorite, not to mention any innovation and development. Just to refresh the record of the number of bad reviews, come on, freshly baked another one for you. " 3. There is no wisdom or interest at all. "The Guardian" commented: "It gives people the feeling that it is a big scene with Marvel Comics, but Marvel Comics at least makes people feel humorous and interesting, and the Transformers are in short supply."

Although the word of mouth is not beautiful, the box office outside North America is still relatively optimistic. "Transformers 5" grossed $196 million overseas in its first week, topping the weekly box office list in 40 countries and regions around the world, with mainland China contributing $123 million. At present, the global box office totals US$ 265 million, which is slightly lower than the US$ 300 million in the same period of Transformers 4: Rebirth of the Jedi, but close to the US$ 271 million in the first week (the film has now reached 677 million in the global box office). I hope the influence of bad word-of-mouth can be controlled. After all, Paramount Pictures really needs Transformers 5 to be "normal" now. On the one hand, the production and publicity costs of this film add up to at least $350 million (data source: new york Times). On the other hand, several Paramount films, such as "The Ringing Bell at Midnight 3", "The Beach Ranger", are not satisfactory this year. If Transformers 5 can save the scene as expected, it will also give the executives and the capitalists a reassurance.

Next page:"Serious illness" has the highest box office in the year, and "Under the Peony Flower" is exquisite and favored.

Eight years after the release of A Dog’s Purpose, dogs moved the world again.

1905 movie network news The only film of Meng Chong’s healing series in spring will land on the mainland big screen on March 3. The film is directed by Lars Holstrom, who was nominated for the best director of the Academy Awards twice.

It can be said that it is the only film in the same period that really hits people’s hearts and heals the soul.


Oscar-nominated directors devote themselves to directing a new interpretation after eight years.


A Dog’s Purpose was directed by Lars Holstrom, a famous Hollywood director. His films have always been famous for their delicate and rich emotional portrayal, and he was nominated for the Best Director Award twice. Compared with his famous films, the director was praised as "the best director in the world who can shoot dogs" because he built a world-famous Akita dog.

After decades of separation from his master and his first love, Bailey, the dog, reunited them for many years. In this era full of "fast food love", there is still sincere love that can stand the test of years. The film undoubtedly sets a good example for us who are eager to find true love.


People say goodbye to pets and become heavy tear gas. The dog’s "ten years of life" laughs with tears.


Ten years of mankind is a dog’s life. The conversion of dog and human age "ten years and a lifetime" is embarrassing. In the film, when the owner accompanied the dog to the end of his life, the desperate and helpless eyes and the subtle emotional changes that made people feel distressed were vividly reflected on the screen. The film does not avoid the pain of where will you go between human and dogs, but gives hope to everyone who has owned a pet with a novel setting. Dogs just changed their previous appearance, and will accompany their owners in a brand-new way to continue their love. This brand-new setting makes A Dog’s Purpose the most unique film of its kind, and it also gives dog lovers a brand-new understanding and feeling about this sad thing of where will you go. Tears bombs and warm-hearted bombs are bombarded alternately, which makes fans experience the ultimate experience of smiling with tears in their eyes.

Does the light want to shoot a new "three-body"? The "three-body universe" is far more than that.

The annual report of light shows that "Three-body" (new) is in the early planning stage.


Special feature of 1905 film network The movie "Three-body" is coming! In the 2019 annual report released recently, Light Media mentioned that there are currently 40 films in the preparation/production stage, among which "Three-body" is impressively listed, and the word "new" in brackets is fascinating.


At the same time, producer Bai Yiqi also revealed the latest progress of the "Three-body" series at the Young Producers Forum of the 2020 Spring Fair held recently: it will start shooting in June.


Coupled with the 9.7-point animation "My Three-body Chapter Beihai Biography" which exploded in the circle of friends at the beginning of the year, the "Three-body" animation which released PV last year, and the "Three-body" radio drama and cartoon, illustration set, physical exhibition and other forms, a more grand and three-dimensional "Three-body Universe" is quietly rising inside and outside the big screen, and it has also accumulated valuable experience for the development of domestic sci-fi IP.


"seven-year dystocia" and "new trisomy"


The film "Three-body", which was established in 2013 and started in 2015, is still a permanent injury in the hearts of many filmmakers and sci-fi fans.


In 2009, Liu Cixin sold the film adaptation right of the novel Three-body to director Panpan Zhang at a price close to that of cabbage. In 2014, this right was transferred to the Youzu Film Industry.


Although China Film has expressed its willingness to buy the adaptation rights of Three-body, there are also rumors that Amazon has invested huge sums of money to win the adaptation rights in 2018, but today, the "control" of the global film and television adaptation of Three-body is still firmly in the hands of the tourist film industry.


At the end of 2014, Youzu Film Company announced that "Three-body" would be put on the big screen and directed by Panpan Zhang. It plans to adapt three novels into six series films, with a single investment of more than 200 million yuan. Subsequently, the film released the cast led by William Feng, Zhang Jingchu, WU GANG, Tang Yan, Du Chun, Hans Zhang and Zhang Guangbei.


Judging from the main creative line-up, director Panpan Zhang’s previous representative works are thrillers such as the first class, and he lacks experience in handling such a large amount of science fiction films. It can be said that since the establishment of the project, the film "Three-body" has been questioned.


In August 2015, the real-life shooting part of the first part of "Three-body" was officially finished, which also opened the most difficult post-production process. In the meantime, although there are many materials exposed, it is accompanied by countless true and false rumors and storms such as "special effects are not as expected, materials are scrapped, teams are replaced in the later period, and core creators leave".


"Three-body" shooting scene photo


In November, 2016, producer Kong Xiangzhao released Weibo’s statement that "Three-body film will definitely come out within one year", but more than three years have passed in a blink of an eye, and he himself has left the Youzu film industry.


Director Panpan Zhang’s official Weibo also stayed in the June 2016 "rumor" copy. In the comment area, there are still fans who "greet" regularly. "Big Brother, it’s been four years. Why hasn’t the movie been released yet?"


For this "six-year" dystocia film "Three-body", Light once participated in this project in the form of "investment+distribution", but in the film list of the semi-annual report in 2019, this project was once removed.


Nowadays, "Three-body" has returned to the film list with a "new" word, and it is listed as being in the early stage of planning, which may mean that the film version of "Three-body" will change its course and go into battle again.


The heroine of the original "Three-body" movie was Zhang Jingchu.


Weibo, the official of "Three-body Comics", also issued a document on April 26th, saying: "The new" Three-body Comics "film will start shooting: it will be prepared for four years, and the director (unpublished) hopes that the special effects of the picture can restore the scenes shown in the novel."


In the upsurge that swept the film market, the hasty launch of "Three-body" was more like the product of the birth of capital. At that time, both the director, the producer and the China market were far from having the experience and strength to control such a magnitude project as Three-body film, and failure and stranding were inevitable.


Nowadays, with the success and the maturity of the whole industrial chain of domestic sci-fi movies, the time for "Three-body" movies to "come to life" may be coming.


"three-body universe"


After the film version of "Three-body", in recent years, the tourist film industry is gradually adjusting the development model of "Three-body", an IP-rich mine. From animation, radio drama, immersion exhibition to drama, film and derivative development, a more systematic and three-dimensional "three-body universe" is taking shape.


1. drama series


The TV series Three-body was officially established in May 2019, with 24 episodes and a production cycle of 12 months. It is not difficult to see from the summary that the plot will revolve around the first novel of Three-body. According to producer Bai Yiqi, the drama version will start shooting in June this year.


In the interview, Bai Yiqi once bluntly said that it is not difficult to adapt the script of Three-body. "First, the story is jumping and changing back and forth in several time and space; Second, there is no serious female number one and no CP. " However, he also said that compared with the latter two films, the first film has relatively few high-concept elements, so it is a wise choice to start from this.


Due to the epidemic, the boot time was extended from March to June, which also gave the team more time to read and polish the script. How the drama story will unfold, and which actors will join in, so we are looking forward to it. 


2. Animation


At the beginning of this year, "My Three-body Chapter Beihai Biography" was officially launched in bilibili, and it continued to be screened, with a total broadcast volume of 31.345 million times. It was successfully circled with the excellent reputation of bilibili’s 9.9 points and Douban’s 9.7 points, and was widely reported by the media. Frankly speaking: "Three-body" was finally filmed! "


Biography of Zhang Beihai is the third part of my three-body series. In the first film in 2014, the director was still an animation layman. With a passion for "Three-body", he made this "rice animation" by himself. Although the painting style was rough, it unexpectedly won the praise of fans and attracted the attention of the tourist film industry.


The first part of My Three-body is relatively rough.


In 2016, the "Wandering in All directions" team officially joined the tourist film industry, and successively released Biography of Luo Ji and Biography of Zhang Beihai, completing the identity transformation from grassroots to regular army, and also realizing the "explosion" visible to the naked eye in animation technology.


According to reports, the production cost of Zhang Beihai Biography has increased to 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a minute. The "Doomsday Battle" scene, which was the most amazing scene for fans, lasted for ten minutes, and it took a year to polish it.


What’s more worth mentioning is that the Biography of Zhang Beihai does not stick to the original work, but breaks and reconstructs the original narrative with characters as clues, and reasonably adds new plots to make the characters fuller.


Zhang Beihai Biography adds childhood stories and makes the characters more stereoscopic.


A "natural selection number, forward four!" It triggered a collective "climax" in the barrage area. With the seemingly simple square figures, the epic and tragic colors of the original work are captured, which is the real reason why Me Three conquered fans.


The unprecedented success of the "rice system" animation has also made fans feel sorry for the "regular army" — — Three-body Universe, Art Painting Kaitian and bilibili jointly developed the animated version of Three-body, which raised the expected value.


In June last year, the first concept propaganda video of "Three-body" was exposed, which triggered a heated discussion. The video condenses several classic pictures in the novel "Three-body", especially in the second "Dark Forest".


"Space Elevator" in Concept Video


Although the artistic style and special effects of the promotional film are still in the conceptual stage, the design of "space elevator" and "space station" still makes sci-fi fans see sincerity. Only the last sentence: "I, Luo Ji, who faces the wall, now speak to the three-body world." It is enough to make fans’ blood boil.


At the beginning of this year, Art Painting Kaitian Studio in Wuhan also reported the safety to fans through VLOG, saying that all the staff were healthy and well. The script development, art design and asset development of "Three-body" animated drama are progressing steadily and will meet with netizens as planned in 2021.


Xu Yao, CEO of Three-body Universe, once said: "Animation has its own unique form of expression compared with conventional live-action movies. In particular, an IP with a large number of high-concept pictures like a three-body will be bound by real-life performance. "


Now it seems that the animated version of "Three-body" is expected to "shine into reality" earlier than the real-life version, but it is still not easy to animate the grand world view of "Three-body". Polishing the script and restoring the original spirit of Three-body is a more important measure than the technical level.


3. Radio dramas, cartoons and more


In addition to the above-mentioned film and television adaptation, the "Three-body Radio Drama" project, which is a cooperation between the Three-body Universe and the Himalayas, has also received favorable comments since it was launched in December last year. The number of listeners exceeded 18 million and the number of subscriptions exceeded 400,000.


There are 6 seasons and 80 episodes of radio drama, each episode is 30 minutes. Such a long serial is rare in the domestic audio industry. The dubbing team is the top 729 workshop in the industry. The famous voice actor Ajie voiced Wang Miao in it.


On the basis of being faithful to the original work, the radio drama divides and reorganizes the plot, cuts out a large section of inner monologues and professional introductions, focuses on vivid dialogues, and cooperates with multi-level sound effects to enable the audience to "enter the play in one second". Even Liu Cixin praised the radio drama as "both familiar and fresh."


In addition, Tencent’s animation platform launched the comic version of "Three-body" last year, and the sales volume of "Three-body Art Illustration Collection" also exceeded 30,000 copies. In January this year, the large-scale immersion exhibition project of Santi also landed in Shanghai. The Three-body Universe also launched the official flagship store of the Three-body to develop and sell derivatives, with more than 16,000 fans.

The novel Three-body with more than 800,000 words constructs an incomparably grand view of the world, and also provides a vast imagination space for IP development.


If "filmization" is the tip of the pyramid of IP development, then more down-to-earth efforts are needed in the process of climbing the ladder. Once upon a time, quick success and instant benefit were not desirable. From easy to difficult, from simple to complex, systematic and sustainable development is the right way.


Facing the dystocia of the movie "Three-body", Liu Cixin, the original author, is particularly indifferent: "Science fiction movies involve a lot of money and special effects, which take time. Asimov’s series, Arthur Clarke’s Meet Rama, and many other authors’ works, many of which have been in film and television operation for forty or fifty years now. My work has not been running for a long time. "


To quote the saying from Galaxy the legend of heroes that science fiction fans often talk about: "Our journey is a sea of stars", and now it is only the first step of the long March.
