Chapter 1 Summoning the Heroes - Taylor & Francis 2022 - 1 electronic resource (15 p.)

Open Access

The chapter covers the difficulties that the director Frant Gwo, who rose to fame with My Old Classmate, faced when receiving the script for The Wandering Earth: distrust in the domestic market, the lack of experience related to science fiction films and the lack of local talent. With love, Frant Gwo assembled a team determined to make a truly localized and well-grounded Chinese science fiction film.
