Chapter 48 The frenzy of applause!
Zhou Shaoming, on the other hand, was touching the left and right, as if checking whether there was any problem with the cross-blade rail car, but he still didn't start. This made York even close his eyes and cross himself in his heart, calling for God's blessing.
"Shh!" Zhou Shaoming saw York closing his eyes, so he motioned to the people around him to be quiet, and then never pressed the switch, as if waiting for York to open his eyes.
"What's wrong? Why is there no sound around?" York closed his eyes, but couldn't hear people talking. His original nervousness became even more nervous. He wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't control his eyelids!
"Friends in the audience, the movie is about to start, please come in immediately!" The announcement in the cinema rang, but no one left. Those who wanted to leave had already left. No one here wanted to miss this wonderful event.
I didn’t even watch the opening movie.
"Where are the people? Have they all entered the venue? Why is no one talking? Are they lying to me?"
York didn't want to open his eyes very much, but he found a reason to open his eyes. He couldn't wait unconsciously in the dark, otherwise his fragile nerves would collapse immediately.
It's now!
Zhou Shaoming's eyes flashed fiercely, and he pressed the switch in his hand hard. The motor of the cross-blade rail car began to buzz, as if the sickle of death had finally been raised and was about to swing straight at him!
Come rushing forward!
As soon as York opened his eyes, he found that the cross blade was flying towards him, and the target was his head!
The most desperate thing in the world is to watch death coming but to be unable to do anything. York's pupils suddenly shrank, and the despair in his heart made him lose control. He just squatted down suddenly like a conditioned reflex and sat on the ground in panic.
"Dang!" The cross-blade rail car was suddenly blocked by the rail, and then stopped, unable to cause any harm to York.
"Hahaha! This kid was so scared that he pissed his shit! He made me laugh so hard!"
"Oh my God! I'm laughing to the point of tears!"
"I should bring a DVD! Take a picture of this guy! It's so funny!"
The audience in the cinema burst into laughter that almost brought down the roof. Whistling, laughter, and applause could be heard all the time.
"Gentlemen and ladies, the horror blockbuster "Saw" will be released in Japanese cinemas on October 21! Do you want to see how this cross-blade rail car actually cuts a human head? Please watch it then!"
Zhou Shaoming waited for everyone's laughter to subside a little, then took a loudspeaker and roared at the top of his lungs.
"October 21st? Halloween time? Great! Finally a horror movie I want to watch!"
"You must come and see it when the time comes. This murderous rail car is too scary and terrifying! You must see what's going on!"
"I never thought there was such a killing machine. It's so cool! I'm going to invite Bill and the others to watch Saw together!"
People talked a lot, and most of them expressed strong interest and declared that they would definitely watch the movie when the time came. Zhou Shaoming knew that his dream was one step closer to success.
One day, newspapers will have their own image on the front page, and movie theaters will have countless audiences, asking by name to watch the movies they made. Everyone will be moved and excited by the movies they made.
, fear, fear, even...
crazy!
While Zhou Shaoming was performing a performance with murderous props, the same show was also performed in 99 other theaters. As he expected, countless audiences who walked into the cinema were full of curiosity about the murderous props. After watching the performance, they were even more curious.
Screaming again and again, "Saw" has been deeply rooted in their minds and has become a movie that they must watch during Halloween to feast their eyes.
***
The new version of "Saw" was rated NC-17 by the American Motion Picture Association. Many people, including Lionsgate's distribution manager Jon Philtimer and Tobin, suggested that Zhou Shaoming make some edits to the footage.
, it is best to reach an R rating, they think this can attract more people to watch "Saw" in the cinema.
In reality, James Wan was also forced to cut out many violent and bloody scenes from "Saw" to make it R-rated.
But this idea was scoffed by Zhou Shaoming. He felt that cutting out some horror scenes was an attempt to achieve an R-rating. It was clearly a stupid move to become a bitch and still want to build a memorial arch.
Horror movies are horror movies that use bloody killings to attract people's attention and stimulate their spirits. This is not a movie suitable for all ages. It has a clear audience.
"Why do I want audiences under 17 years old to watch "Saw"? Yes, they are a large number, reaching 10 to 20 million people, but we need to know that there are still 50 million to 100 million or more 18 to 40 years old in the United States.
It is suitable for the crowd. They are our food and clothing parents, and this movie of mine is in the business of these audiences! I want to please them, rather than trying to trick pacifier-sucking children into watching this movie." Interviewed by a newspaper.
At that time, Zhou Shaoming said these words very funny.
Both Robert Jr. and Jeremy supported Zhou Shaoming, and they intuitively felt that what Zhou Shaoming said was right.
"NC-17? If possible, I think NC-20 is fine! This is a movie for men!" Robert Jr. strongly supported Zhou Shaoming.
"Saw is NC-17? What's the problem with that? It's not NC-17 that's the problem! If a horror movie isn't scary, who would pay to watch it? Is it funny?" Jeremy Renner said.
At Zhou Shaoming's insistence, not only did the film not have a single cut, but it was also widely publicized using NC-**.
"This is an NC-17 movie. There is no nudity in it, and there is no continuous swearing. There is only one killing machine that is so sophisticated that it will win the Nobel Prize!"
Such advertisements began to spread overwhelmingly on the Internet, and Zhou Shaoming also used "viral marketing" to push "Saw" to the top.
In fact, viral marketing is not a profound knowledge. To put it bluntly, it is the most susceptible way of publicity for ordinary people: word-of-mouth effect.
As early as hundreds of years ago in China, there was a basic manifestation of viral marketing, which is often said that "the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley".
One spreads to ten, ten spreads to hundreds, hundreds spreads to thousands, this is how viruses come.
Advertising through word of mouth is the best sales method. It is a method that cannot be compared to any TV advertisements, radio advertisements, bus advertisements, etc., and the cost is very small.
To give the simplest example, an ordinary consumer wants to go see a movie, and his friends around him recommend it to him, hey, buddy, xxx movie is good, go and watch it! He will naturally feel, well,
This movie should be good. Since they all said yes, let's watch this one.
Whether it's a movie or any consumer product, this kind of word-of-mouth effect exists.
When everyone is interested in the same thing and starts talking about it, the attention it receives will increase tremendously, and when it reaches a certain level, it will bring huge financial resources.
Now, Zhou Shaoming hopes that the publicity in the cinema will be remembered by groups of live audiences, and will be brought into the casual chat among their friends, stimulating each other and reminding each other that there is such a movie.
In addition, with Zhou Shaoming's deliberate promotion, "Saw" not only became the focus of discussion among people throughout Los Angeles, but also became the front-page headlines of popular entertainment online and in newspapers. Moreover, these promotions, in addition to inviting reporters at the beginning,
After spending a few dollars to report, I haven’t spent a single copper since!
Because these contents are so exciting!
Headline of Yahoo Entertainment Edition: A murder mechanism was discovered in the movie theater. It is so sophisticated and bloody! Below is a horrifying photo of a cross-blade rail car cutting a mango into four pieces.
A reporter from Yahoo wrote: I have never seen, or even thought about, a person dying like this! How frightening and desperate would it be to die under such a sophisticated and bloody machine? It is conceivable that when
In this movie, the way this killing machine is put into operation and the shot of the head exploding can sweep away any slasher movie with a machete or a chainsaw!
The reporter from the entertainment section of the Washington Post gave the title: Every move is fatal! Will the Texas Chainsaw have a new disciple in 1974?
The content is: Although this movie has not yet been released, countless curious viewers have begun to explore its roots. It seems that we have not seen it for a long time since 1974 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre became the greatest thriller and horror film in the history of film.
I have discovered a more creative horror movie. Maybe this movie can bring new excitement to moviegoers through the new idea of killing machines?
The Chicago Sun-Times' special film critic Gil Birdress angrily wrote an article: "Killing machine? A psychotic idea!"
The content inside said: In the past few days, the whole United States has been in an uproar. Everyone is talking about the news that a small-budget horror film is about to be released. This film uses killing machines as its selling point and is highly publicized. This is really unacceptable to me. In the end,
To put it simply, if I want to kill someone, I can kill him with a gun, stab him with a knife, or strangle him with a rope. How simple is it? Look at that exquisite killing machine. Who is so full that he is so full that he can develop and manufacture this kind of machine?
Something? This is not realistic or logical at all! I suggest this young director, who is said to be only 22 years old, pay more attention to the connotation of the film and what it will bring to the audience after the thrill of blood and flesh, instead of making a gimmick to deceive
People spend money to go to the cinema!
For a time, the controversy over "Saw" began to become more and more intense in newspapers and on the Internet, and finally developed uncontrollably into a scene of verbal exchanges, spitting, and revealing each other's stories. The Chicago Sun-Times and Yahoo
The reporter on the entertainment page was an old enemy who had some old grudges before. Their anger became more and more intense, and the quarrel was like an erupting volcano.
They openly bet on "Saw". If the North American box office of "Saw" cannot exceed 100 million US dollars, then all the web editors of Yahoo Entertainment will go naked downstairs to the headquarters of the Chicago Sun-Times and run 100 meters naked. On the contrary,
If it exceeds 100 million US dollars, reporters from the Chicago Sun-Times, regardless of gender, will collectively go to the office building of Yahoo Entertainment and run naked for 100 meters!
When Zhou Shaoming, who was interviewed by other newspapers, was asked which side he supported, he said very calmly: "Where is the office building of Yahoo Entertainment? I will go to see a good show then! Chicago Sun News?"
I hate to say it, but they are going to lose!"
But contrary to Zhou Shaoming's seemingly blind self-confidence, all the media unanimously believed that Yahoo Entertainment would lose. Even within Yahoo Entertainment, the editor-in-chief Gass, who was extremely angry after being exposed by the Sun, agreed to make a bet.
Especially, everyone thinks he is a fool because of this bet.
"You have to go naked and go by yourself, but we won't go!" Many editors at Yahoo Entertainment said. They all thought that the editor-in-chief Gast was out of his mind. How could a rookie director be able to film a movie with more than one million US dollars?
A $100 million movie?
Even Gaster regretted his impulse, but he had to shoot when the arrow was on the string. He could only rely on his identity as editor-in-chief to privately arrange as many soft advertisements for "Saw" and then pray to God.
I sincerely hope that Smith's box office performance won't be too disastrous this week.
The owners of the Sun Newspaper were celebrating. This win-or-lose bet had increased the sales of their newspaper by 3%. They were so proud that they put up a huge slogan.
"Welcome to streaking, we'll see in a month!"
Some tabloids began to stay all day long to photograph Zhou Shaoming's every move, and many major newspapers also began to ask Zhou Shaoming for exclusive interviews. Although Zhou Shaoming also maintained the unique modesty and caution of the Chinese, he could not hide his unique arrogance!
The huge headline given by New York Times entertainment reporter Brand Wacker proves Zhou Shaoming's confidence and pride.
"I am a supernova!"
Americans are full of respect for those who dare to express themselves and take challenges. Therefore, Zhou Shaoming not only does not have too many people to criticize him, but also has many American film critics or ordinary people applauding loudly, attracting more and more attention. It can be said that
The limelight lasts forever.
Of course, all this will be based on the success of "Saw". If this movie fails, Zhou Shaoming will be mercilessly swept into the garbage dump, and no one will take a second look.
"Supernova" director, Smith Chow, is counting down to the release of the movie "Saw"! In seven days, North American audiences will watch this movie in the following 100 theaters!
Because of his support for Zhou Shaoming, and in return for Zhou Shaoming's support for him, this news will appear in the Yahoo entertainment version pop-up window every day when he opens the web page, making Zhou Shaoming smile from ear to ear.
On the Internet, "Saw" opened its own official website. The number of visits was overwhelming, and the server was paralyzed several times. Millions of netizens crowded into this small website, prompting Lionsgate Film Company to urgently invest in several more units.
The server has to solve this problem.
The final publicity battle for "Saw" was concentrated on the Internet. Various videos appeared on the official website, Yahoo Entertainment, and other large websites. Those videos all had one theme:
Cross-blade rail car, what will be chopped tomorrow?
Netizens can bring their own items to be chopped up by the cross-blade rail car, and the entire process is recorded with a professional camera. On the official website, there are already all kinds of strange shredded items.
Some people brought their own tattered puppets, some brought teacups, and some even ran over carrying a TV set despite being tired, just to watch how the cross-blade rail car chopped them up.
At eight o'clock in the evening, countless people will flock to the cinema, but what annoys the cinema owner is that most of these people are not coming to watch a movie, but to see how this killing machine cuts things!
But he was annoyed and had no choice. Lionsgate Film Company had already rented this place and signed a contract, which was protected by law!
"Okay, okay! Today's highlight is here!" Zhou Shaoming roared with a hoarse voice. He was exhausted from the high-intensity use of his voice these days.
The crowd burst into jubilation. They had been waiting for an hour or two just for this moment!
"Today, what we are going to chop up is a brand new desk donated by Mr. Will!" Zhou Shaoming pointed to a proud boy beside him, waving to everyone, especially the camera.
"Hello everyone, my name is Will, from Tennessee! I have been waiting for this opportunity for three days! It's finally my turn, thank God!" Will said loudly, his face almost stiff with laughter.
But the audience below all curled their lips, feeling that it was not exciting enough.
"Tch! Not creative!"
"That's right, it's still more fun than the guy who chopped up a brand new IBM computer yesterday. The guy who paid thousands of dollars did it with one knife. Wow, haha, it's so cool!"
"Go down, go down!"
People were talking a lot, making Will, who was smiling just now, embarrassed.
When the knife went down, sawdust flew into the air, making the audience scream in surprise.
"Everyone, the second item we are going to chop up today is, wow haha, this thing is really shocking! Listen up, everyone! A Harley motorcycle donated by Mr. Bangwei!" Zhou Shaoming raised his hands, extremely excited
roared.
"Did you hear that right? Someone is going to cut open the Harley!!"
"Wow! Cool!!! So fucking cool!!!"
"Hurry up and call, why hasn't Bella come yet? If you don't come, you'll miss the cross blade breaking open the Harley motorcycle!"
"Move aside, let me take a photo!"
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, you bastard!"
The crowd became more and more surging, and the cinema hall was filled with thousands of people without realizing it. People were crowded together with sweating profusely, and countless cameras were set up just to take pictures of that classic scene.
By the way, if you can take the most shocking photo and rank in the top ten in the "Saw" official website selection, you can get two free tickets! This is a rare opportunity, act quickly!
A red Harley motorcycle with an extremely cool appearance, the entire body was shiny, and the three English letters "saw" were spray-painted on the fuel tank. The staff slowly pushed it out and placed it at the end of the machine.
And people's surprise reached its peak at this time!
"**! This is a new car! It's not a piece of junk that's about to be sent to a repair shop!"
"How nice it is to give it to me, so I don't get on the Cross Blade Rail Car!"
"Udyr, show me quickly! If you don't come here, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
"Who stepped on my toes? Damn it!"
"Oh, my shoes!"
This is when Zhou Shaoming remembered that in later generations, there were often guys who used pistols, AK47s or Gatling Vulcan cannons to blast iPads and iPhones, and then replayed these shots in slow motion and put them on YouTube to attract other people's attention. Don't even mention it.
There are so many people watching this stuff, it’s really shocking.
Inspired by this, Zhou Shaoming wanted to use a cross-blade rail car to cut things that ordinary people would never dare to imagine, such as the Harley-Davidson motorcycle, which is known as the American spirit.
Cut up Harley! Haha, is this headline exciting enough? Mine will be on the headlines again tomorrow! And newspaper and online reporters must really like such shocking content!
Zhou Shaoming was secretly happy, looking at the excited audience in front of him, who took out their cameras to take pictures wildly, and shouted loudly: "Do you want to see how to chop up a Harley?"
"Think!" thunderous shouts.
"Shout with me, saw!"
"saw!!"
"saw!!!"
"saw!!!"
Under the wild roars of countless people, under the wide-open pupils of countless people, under the shocking screams, under the situation where the whole person was illuminated by flash lights, the cross-blade rail car started with a bang,
Like thunder and lightning, an arrow leaves the string and flies away!
Pedestrians on the street looked at the cinema in confusion. They didn't know why such a loud roar suddenly broke out, as if countless people were shouting crazily, as if the movie shocked their souls. They stopped involuntarily, went to the cinema, and then
, saw the movie that affected their life, saw!
"Chainsaw"!
---
York-Hanske and Lisa had been having conflicts for several days since they came out of the movie theater that day. Lisa felt that York was scared to death by the Cross Blade Rail Car that day. It was so embarrassing and unmanly, and she argued several times.
The reason for breaking up with York is: "I need a very manly man! Not a kid who is even afraid of movie props!"
This made York very sad. It was just a subconscious action on his part. How could it rise to the level of criticizing his own courage?
In order to save this relationship, York crowded in the Sky Cinema every day, waiting for the release of "Saw". He had to grab tickets to the premiere, otherwise Lisa would really break up with him.
But there are huge crowds of viewers who think like him, most of them are young people in their early 20s. They crowd into the cinema in small groups and queue up to wait for the cinema to sell tickets for "Saw".
A series of publicity has already whetted the appetite of the audience, and Lionsgate Film Company, which strictly adheres to the "hunger effect" for its performance operations, has only designated 100 theaters to be the first batch to broadcast "Saw". This
This method made all the 100 movie theaters burst into overflowing capacity, and the audiences inside were so crowded that they were sweating profusely. Even turning the air conditioners to the maximum seemed to have no effect.
"Give me two tickets to the Saw movie!" York waited in line for nearly an hour before squeezing his way to the ticket counter and shouting at the beautiful conductor. Then he stared hard and pushed out the guy who wanted to jump in line.
.
"Sorry sir, all the tickets for the first and second shows of Saw have been sold out! Now there are only tickets for the last few rows of the midnight show. Do you want them?" the beautiful conductor said apologetically.
"**! Are there only tickets for the midnight show?" York was shocked. How could he explain to Lisa now?
"**! I told you to come earlier, now it's better!" When the people behind heard this, they all sighed.
"Sir, do you want more? Why not watch The Haunted Mansion? This movie is also very good!" the beautiful conductor asked tentatively.
"No! I want tickets for Chainsaw! No matter what ticket it is, give me two!" Someone from behind wanted to squeeze in and shouted, waving colorful bills in his hand.
"No, no, no, don't sell it to him! I want it, give me two!" York shouted hurriedly. If someone really took the tickets away, Lisa would twist off his ears.
I just got the ticket and before I walked out of the door, the beautiful conductor shouted: "Today's Saw tickets are all sold out! We can only sell tickets for tomorrow!"
The crowd in line erupted in dissatisfaction.
"Holy shit! Why are there only these movie theaters? My friends have gone to several movie theaters, and none of them have Saw!"
"What the hell, can't you arrange a few more shows?"
"In front of you, if you don't want to buy it, just leave. No one will come tomorrow!"
"Who says I won't buy it? I'll buy all the tickets for the day after tomorrow, let alone tomorrow!"
The crowd was noisy, but no one left. Everyone was looking forward to seeing if this movie was that magical.
"This is the NBC cable TV station. I am reporter George. I am very happy to meet you. Today we are going to talk about a movie "Chainsaw" that has been popular online and in newspapers recently. Today are the tickets for this movie.
On the opening day. And this small-budget movie, which is currently on the verge of controversy and even triggered the "streaking incident" between Yahoo Entertainment and the Chicago Sun-Times, how will the real box office performance be? Let's take a look."
George held the microphone, followed by a big man carrying a camera, and walked into the packed crowd and said: "Oh, my God, the cinema is full of people. Are they all here to watch Saw?"
Holding a microphone to interview a young man wearing a jacket with an angry face, George asked: "Hello, which movie are you here to watch?"
"**, I came to see the saw! Damn it, I live in Riverside, which is hundreds of kilometers away from Los Angeles! I drove for a long time and came here but couldn't buy a ticket! I'm very sad
Angry, I want to protest seriously! On behalf of everyone in Riverside who wants to see this movie, I want to say that Lionsgate is regionally discriminatory! **, Lionsgate, go to hell!"
After saying that, the young man waved his fist to show that he was very unhappy.
George wiped his face that was sprayed with saliva and said awkwardly to the camera: "Oh, this young man is very excited. It seems that the temptation of saw is really great. I will interview another one next!"
After deliberately looking for a girl who looked fragile, George grinned and asked, "Beautiful girl, which movie are you here to watch?"
"Which movie? Which movie in the United States is worth watching now? Of course it's Saw!" The girl who looks weak is actually a female tyrannosaurus, shouting to the camera: "My boyfriend bought it
I haven’t gotten a ticket to the premiere in three days. I’m here to tell you, Steve, you useless guy! If I get a ticket today, we will break up! Break up!”
George held up the microphone and found himself even more embarrassed.
"Tickets for tomorrow's Saw have been sold out. Tickets for the day after tomorrow are now on sale. We will also open a new ticket window to meet the needs of the audience." The news came from the theater's broadcast.
"**, there is a newly opened window over there!" Someone raised his arms and shouted, and countless people crowded towards the window like a tide.
"Get out of the way!" The girl being interviewed pushed George aside as if on stimulants, and rushed towards the newly opened window like a fly, while a large group of people gritted their teeth and roared, fighting for each other.
Come and drown the frightened George and the cameraman directly!
After getting the ticket, York ran home excitedly, but found an even bigger surprise online. The photo he took of cutting up a Harley motorcycle was rated as the seventh best photo, and he won a premiere ticket from Lionsgate Film Company.
Two!
Overjoyed, York took the ticket and ran to tell Lisa the good news. Lisa, who was equally happy, hugged her and kissed her twice. This made York even more happy and smiling.
Arriving at the cinema early, York and Lisa dressed up as if they were not going to watch a movie but to prepare for a wedding. In the envious eyes of the crowded crowd waiting to buy tickets, they walked with their heads held high and their chests high.
Enter the movie theater.
The large theater was packed with seats, and hundreds of lucky people were waiting eagerly.
Zhou Shaoming, Tobin Bell, Robert Downey Jr., Jeremy Renner and other creative and starring actors were sitting in the last row of the cinema. They were also nervously waiting for this ""
The release of "Saw" is waiting for all audiences to give the most direct evaluation.
This moment has finally arrived. After working so hard for so long, it’s finally time to see the results!
Zhou Shaoming gripped the handle of the chair tightly, as if this would make him feel more at ease. His strong worry about gains and losses made him as uncontrollable as if he were on the Titanic that was about to sink.
The screening room went dark, and the noisy people fell silent. The logo of Lionsgate Pictures appeared on the big screen. Then, the English word "twistedictures" appeared, and two wires full of thorns were wrapped around it. Suddenly, a handful of
The sharp iron drill was inserted straight down, twisting and winding the wire, and then cracked and broke.
Seeing his name appear on the screen, Zhou Shaoming sat up straight, the corners of his eyes were slightly moist, and little Robert next to him patted his shoulder with sympathy, showing the same solemn expression.
The movie unfolded in a secret room, and the chains that locked Dr. Gordon and Adam shocked all the audience. It seemed that the movie was not as they imagined, a movie about a murderer using murder props to dismember bodies.
, this suspenseful beginning made them unable to help themselves, and together with the characters on the screen, they began to guess who was going to do this.
As the plot progressed, uncontrollable soft cries began to appear in the audience: "Oh, God, oh, my God!"
The shouts seemed to spread like a virus, and the audience, whose faces began to turn pale, shouted louder and louder. The female audience members who had been suppressing it forcibly opened up when they heard such frightened shouts from all around them, and they all started to react in unison.
The ground started screaming in front of a certain death mechanism screen!
Dozens of screaming girls made other men shrink back awkwardly. Occasionally, a few timid men didn't even care about their face and screamed along with the girls.
"Ahhh!"
"Oh, God, oh!"
"**,**!"
All kinds of irrepressible exclamations, all kinds of shouts of excitement and fear, came and went.
Normally, boys are willing to take girls to watch horror movies, just to see the girls scream in fear and then get into their arms, but "Saw" is completely different. When those girls are white-faced,
When they got into their arms, the boys had no intention of taking advantage of the opportunity. They just hugged the girl tightly, as if they were the tortured people in the movie. They were nervous and helpless. Their eyes just stared at the screen, taking advantage of this great opportunity.
Throw it out of reach!
The video played second by second, and the camera kept changing. When the scene cut to a pit full of needles, the clear and clear sound of gasps from countless viewers could be heard, and there was a wave of commotion in the crowd.
When Amanda fell into the pit of needles and screamed when she got up with needles all over her body, it caused a lot of screams. Many female viewers had cold hands and feet, were dizzy, and covered their eyes, afraid to watch any more.
Lisa clutched her chest, her face turned pale, and she stared straight at the big screen. The stimulation she felt made her goosebumps come and go, and the screams nearby made her want to vomit, and the world was spinning.
Feel.
And York wasn't much better. He was already timid, and he kept sucking in the cold air, and his facial muscles twitched slightly. He really didn't expect that when the death machines in the movie theater showed their man-eating fangs, what would happen?
So bloody and terrifying!
Cross-blade rail car, death jaw tearer, when one after another murder props appeared on the screen, there were screams one after another, and the exclamations went straight into the sky like waves. Many people covered their eyes,
But they peeked through the gaps between their fingers, as if this would make them feel more at ease.
Lisa held York's hand tightly, and their hands were wet with sweat. They didn't even say a word, and they were fascinated by the ingenious concept of "Saw", one after another, with ups and downs.
Attracted by the plot, I only ate a few bites of the big bucket of popcorn I brought in and put it down in a hurry without taking a few more bites.
The only sound in the cinema was the heavy and nervous breathing of the audience, and the only screams when faced with the death scenes. The impact of this movie on their minds was like a tornado that swept through everything!
When Dr. Gordon was shown on the camera screaming and desperately using a saw to cut his own leg, the audience felt chills from the bottom of their hearts and their calves had cramps. They were left idle and knocked over by the trembling people.
Popcorn comes one after another.
Audience members holding their heads and covering their eyes, audience members shrinking timidly, audience members who screamed from time to time, and even many people tightly grasped the hands of strangers next to them, holding themselves together with others.
It hurts from being pinched!
When the scene came to the last part, when Tobin's "Saw" stood up from a pool of blood, all the audience had goosebumps, and there was a burst of sound in the cinema that even the loud music could not suppress.
The sound of air-conditioning sucking.
Countless impatient spectators stood up and looked at the big screen in horror and disbelief. They never thought that the guy who had died in the secret room with his head blown off turned out to be...
The entire cinema audience stood up, just like watching the last kick of a penalty shootout on the court. Everyone's heart was in their throats, and they unconsciously shouted "Oh my God! Oh God!".
No one shouted to the audience in the front row to sit down and stay out of the way. Everyone stood up and watched the last shot.
If Zhou Shaoming arranges a scary scene at this moment, everyone will definitely be frightened!
As expected, Zhou Shaoming arranged for a face to appear suddenly, it was Jian Saw's face!
Countless people were so frightened that they fell back to their seats, and some were so frightened that they fell into pieces. Some even picked up popcorn that they hadn't eaten for a long time and just wanted to take a bite, but their faces were sawed so hard that their hands trembled.
A bowl of popcorn knocked over the man in front of him!
The guy who had popcorn dumped on his head was even more unexpected. His eyes were twitching, and he subconsciously picked up the popcorn and stuffed it into his mouth. With a stiff face, he said indifferently: "**
, Jian Saw is simply a lunatic! So crazy!”
No one expected that Zhou Shaoming, who had spent a long time playing with the psychology of adding horror to the picture, would use the scary techniques commonly used in horror films, but the unprepared audience was unexpectedly frightened and turned pale and embarrassed.
Like all the viewers, Zhou Shaoming, Robert Jr. and others also stood to read the last paragraph. They watched the audience's reaction with satisfaction, showing expressions of relief.
Isn’t it the dream of filmmakers to create movies that make people cry, make people laugh, and make people feel as miserable or happy as the people in the drama?
At this moment, Zhou Shaoming finally did it!
The movie ended. For a whole minute, no one left or spoke. They all just opened their mouths and replayed those unforgettable scenes in their hearts. It was shocking!
Not long after, the cinema suddenly erupted in enthusiastic applause and loud whistles like waves washing up on the shore.
At this moment, the whole cinema burst into a frenzy of applause, so loud and neat, so touching!
"Cool, cool horror movie!"
"Fortunately, I grabbed the tickets as early as possible, and Phil was still lining up outside, so we finished watching it, haha!"
All kinds of discussions were mixed with thunderous applause. Everyone looked pale, but they were extremely excited and excited!
American audiences have very extroverted characteristics. "Saw" shocked them, and they responded to their psychology with the warmest applause. For a while, the huge applause made the entire screening hall burst into cheers.
York clapped hard. He was so frightened that he fell back on his chair just now. Fortunately, Lisa didn't notice at all, which made him feel better. Now, he, Lisa and everyone else were clapping hard.
Holding hands, they announced that this movie did not disappoint them from the beginning. It will definitely be a classic horror movie!
In the future Halloween, all horror movies will shudder, feel uneasy, and even fear in the sequel of this movie!
Zhou Shaoming quietly wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes amidst the thunderous applause, letting the excitement flowing freely in his heart settle down a little. The audience's reaction showed that all the persistence and painful efforts were worth it, and he finally brought SAW to this place.
The world finally fulfilled its dream!
His eyes were red, Zhou Shaoming just sniffed hard and controlled the tears not to fall, but found that little Robert was sitting there with tears streaming down his face, wiping his eyes desperately.
And Jeremy was even more exposed. He sat there sobbing, unable to even raise his head, and burst into tears.
Zhou Shaoming held back his tears and laughed: "You guys, you really don't live up to your expectations, big man, why are you crying!"
And little Robert raised his tearful eyes and just looked at him. Those hazy tearful eyes made Zhou Shaoming unable to hold back his excitement any longer. He suddenly rushed over and hugged Jeremy and himself who were crying in pain, and the tears couldn't stop.
The place of residence rolled down.
The success gained through sweat, tears, and even blood is more valuable!
We have experienced too much together, and everyone has a reason to cry. The three grown men hugged each other tightly and cried together, venting the joy they had gained after countless hardships and even torture. At this time, they
Just hug each other tightly, let the excited tears flow, and let the happy heart be close.
The road to chasing dreams is full of thorns and traps. Only by relying on the courage to persevere, and only by relying on friends to accompany you and keep each other warm, can you push through the thick fog that covers your eyes and reach the other side of success.
"Don't cry, don't cry, children, our dream has been achieved!" Tobin said in a hoarse voice while wiping his tears.
Dream, dream!

York and Lisa walked out of the screening room and talked excitedly about the movie, while the anxiously waiting audience outside asked, "Hey, buddy, is Saw good?"
"Yeah, is it good to watch? But don't spoil it!"
"I just heard loud cheers and applause, it must be really nice!"
York raised his head proudly and said loudly: "This is a landmark horror movie! It's so beautiful and cool! I can't find any words to describe it. If I were to give it a score, it would have five stars among the top movies.
Xing, I want to say, buy your tickets and come in, buddy! You won’t regret it!”
After watching the movie, every audience member showed a satisfied smile, echoing York's words, which made the audience waiting outside to buy tickets even more excited.
"Additional shows, extra shows! Damn it, I've been here for three days and I still haven't bought a ticket. If I can't buy one today, I won't leave!"
"The owner of the cinema comes out! We want to watch saw!"
"Come out, come out!"
A huge roar erupted in the cinema!

When he got home, his cell phone rang. Zhou Shaoming took it out and saw that it was Christina calling from Hawaii.
"Hello, dear Christina, what's the matter?" Zhou Shaoming finally felt much better and said jokingly.
"How's it going? How's the movie going? Are the audiences satisfied? I'm really sorry that I haven't finished filming yet, so I can't accompany you to watch this first movie." Christina's anxious message came from the phone.
Guilty voice.
"Movie? Oh, it's not bad. The cinema was full of people. When the last scene happened, as you said, many people were so surprised that they knocked their popcorn all over the floor. Now the cleaning lady in the cinema will scold me to death.
!" Zhou Shaoming had recovered from his excitement and said as if nothing had happened.
"So everyone likes it? So we succeeded?" Christina's eyes widened on the other side of the phone. She sat on the bed in the hotel, hugging the pillow, and said in surprise.
"Yes, Christina! We succeeded! Our Saw was very popular, and the audience queuing up to buy tickets filled the whole cinema!" Zhou Shaoming stopped teasing Christina, and he suddenly shouted loudly
And said excitedly.
"Thank God! You succeeded..." Christina's voice was so excited that she sobbed on the phone.
"Oh baby, don't cry, we succeeded, you should laugh! You are also one of the investors, I think you will become a millionaire soon!" Zhou Shaoming comforted Christina with a smile.
"Humph, I am a millionaire, then you will be a multimillionaire!" Christina finally stopped crying and responded angrily.
"Haha, I want to be the most successful film director, not a multi-millionaire!" Zhou Shaoming's words also represent his heart.
In these few short months, he understood the meaning and truth of life. Money was no longer the goal he pursued. He could only achieve his achievement when he saw the audience applauding and cheering loudly for his movie in the cinema.
The feeling makes him like a drug addict who has finally become addicted and cannot get rid of movies for the rest of his life.
"Yes, you will..." Christina's voice gradually dropped, "I miss you so much, Zhou!"
"I miss you too! Christina!" Zhou Shaoming's heart was burning.
According to this development, the new version of Saw will not be lower than the box office revenue of the previous one. When I complete the main task of the director system this year, I will be able to come in handy for the big guy who has been like a hibernating snake and has been unable to cheer up for a whole year.
The land of martial arts!
Thinking about Christina's delicate and charming face and her concave and convex figure, Zhou Shaoming's heart felt like it was scratching his heart, and he was extremely anxious.
Hurry up, hurry up and break the $50 million box office in North America so I can...
Zhou Shaoming fantasized in his mind for a long time and chatted intimately with Christina on the phone for a long time before falling asleep in extreme excitement and exhaustion.
In the dream, it was Christina's delicate skin with no trace of strands, and the satisfied smiling faces of countless audiences, moving back and forth like a revolving lantern.
The next day, a large number of praises and praises appeared on the official message board of "Saw". In addition to a large number of short words such as "This movie is really good!" and "This movie is good, it is worth paying for the ticket."
, many discussion posts began to appear about people's thoughts on the meaning of life behind this movie, and they also began to affirm that "Saw" will become a classic among classics.
A person named Running John wrote in a movie review: "Whether it is the sense of oppression, novelty, plot arrangement and ending, it is impeccably beautiful and simply exceeded my expectations. 1999, the golden age of horror movies
has been gone for a long time, and the market is full of formulaic and cliched genre works. For horror film fans, it is difficult to find the excitement and surprise of the past in the film. The outstanding performance of "Saw" is no different
It gave a shot in the arm to the sluggish horror film market at the time. Starting from the clever pun in the title 'saw', the director used the four main sources of human fear, including the unknown, darkness, space claustrophobia and death, as side dishes.
, plus a large number of realistic descriptions of the dark side of human nature as the main meal. Although it only uses a small amount of plasma compared to other horror movies, the creativity and exquisite ingenuity revealed everywhere in the film, coupled with
The simple but precise conveyance of pain and sharp editing make this dark and exciting feast low-cost but not ordinary at all. Although you can smell some classic horror movies, the director cleverly eliminates the essentials and retains the essentials.
, but it created its own pattern. With the ending full of power and surprise, the three words "saw" are deeply imprinted in the hearts of horror film fans. It is absolutely no wonder that it is regarded as a new classic.
Pass!
Another movie fan named "Jian Saw" (this guy is so quick to seize the opportunity!) commented on the movie: "Two men were thrown into a basement bathroom. They only knew that within 8 hours," two men could only
"Live", otherwise they will all die. The film has won the audience's screams with its tense, complex, thrilling, mysterious plot and unexpected ending. The strong gastrointestinal reaction and unique human perspective made the film popular among the audience.
It left a deep imprint on the sulci of the brain. The perspective of the film's story is completely from the perspective of the victim, rather than the police's perspective as usual works. In addition to the bloody horror, the film is also designed to
It is a severe moral test. The murderer is not only driven by cruelty and madness, but also wants the victim to feel the value of life. In one scene, the death game really changed the life attitude of a survivor. Let me say something in the end.
My famous saying! Don’t take life for granted, don’t wait until it’s too late to appreciate it!”
The number of comments below these two film reviews reached 3,000 or 4,000 in just half a day. Countless people are excited and must leave their own thoughts here.
This will make the box office of "Saw" go even further! Zhou Shaoming was very happy. He didn't expect that someone would find the central meaning through the bloody surface so quickly. He also smiled and made up a name casually for this person.
Two movie reviews replied to the previous "up"!.
In addition to the voices of praise, there are soaring box office sales!
Chapter completed!
