A bright red carpet was laid out at the entrance of Yonghua Cinema in the magical city. Even in the evening, the weather was still hot. Shao Shuaijun was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, and his forehead was covered with sweat. A huge poster board was set up at the entrance of the cinema behind him.
, a huge "Crazy Stone" movie poster is posted on the account.
Next to him were Xu Zhuo and Guo Tao, who were sweating just like him. In order to promote the movie, the three of them had to pose in front of the poster for the reporters below to take pictures. This time all the main creators came, Guo Tao, Liu Hua,
Lian Weijian, Xu Zhuo, Huang Bo, Yue Xiaojun, Wang Xun, Peng Bo, Sun Ning, Gu Xuan, etc.
After Shao Shuaijun took a group photo with all the main creators, he went backstage to the cinema. Flashes were not his hobby and it was too hot outside.
"Brother Zhao, are you all ready?" Shao Shuaijun found Zhao Cheng who was arranging seats.
"Okay, be prepared. There are quite a few people coming tonight. Let's not break the rules. They are all big names in the film industry and we cannot afford to offend them." Zhao Cheng warned.
Those who have been confirmed to come this time are not only artists from Huayi Brothers, but also a large number of celebrities in the film industry. Among the directors confirmed to be present are Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Teng Huatao, Chen Kexin,
Huang Jianxin, Lu Chuan, Zhang Baibai, Meng Jinhui, Wang Xiaoshuai and others.
I have had several test screenings in the cultural circles of Beijing and Shanghai before, and the reputation is quite good, which can attract many directors and celebrities to come to support me. Of course, director Zhang Yimou was not able to refuse Shao Shuaijun because of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree".
Director Feng Xiaogang was invited by Wang Zhonglei.
At six o'clock, fireworks bloomed outside, and the first batch of celebrities arrived. At the front was the popular star Sun Honglei. Immediately, a large number of reporters rushed forward, and the microphones were stretched out: "Mr. Sun Honglei, what is your relationship with "Crazy Stone"
, why do you come here to support me?"
"I'm a fan of Director Shao's movies. I watched it once in Beijing before and I really liked it. I want to come over and watch it a second time for free."
After signing the poster and taking a photo, Sun Honglei walked into the cinema. Shao Shuaijun, Guo Tao, Liu Hua and others greeted him: "Welcome Mr. Sun."
"Director Shao, you are so polite. I am a fan of yours. I really like this movie." Sun Honglei was very enthusiastic and held Huang Bo's hand again. "You are a black man and your acting is so good. I laughed out loud when I watched it."
Already."
"Hehehehe." Huang Bo giggled.
Many stars came one after another, and Shao Shuaijun was not very familiar with them, so they just nodded. After a while, Feng Xiaogang and Lu Chuan came over together. The reporter blocked the way and naturally asked why they were there and what they thought of the movie.
"I like this movie so much. Congratulations to Shao Shuaijun. I think if his talent continues, director Feng Xiaogang will be the most nervous." Lu Chuan "attacked" Feng Xiaogang face to face.
Feng Xiaogang said with a smile: "This is a good thing. You are lonely without opponents. Life is wonderful when you have opponents."
After the two of them, Fan Bingbing and Chen Daoming came together, answered the reporters, and walked into the cinema. Shao Shuaijun nodded hurriedly and said: "Mr. Chen, Miss Fan, welcome."
Chen Daoming nodded and walked away. Fan Bingbing said: "Director Shao, the movie was wonderful. I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."
"OK."
The stars were shining brightly on the red carpet, and the reporters nearby were having a great time taking photos. If any celebrity was shown, it would be big news.
Around 6:30, a great director completely shook up the red carpet. He was Zhang Yimou. The just-released "House of Flying Daggers" directly topped the box office this year, earning 150 million in box office, making it the highest-grossing film in the past two years.
Although domestic films are not as popular as "Hero" in 2002, they are something that other directors dare not come close to.
"Director Zhang, "House of Flying Daggers" won the box office championship. Does this mean that you have surpassed other directors in the field of commercial films?"
"Director Zhang, "House of Flying Daggers" failed to surpass "Hero" and received a lot of negative reviews. What do you think of this matter?"
"Director Zhang..."
Zhang Yimou said expressionlessly: "Today is the premiere of "Crazy Stone", please don't ask me irrelevant topics."
"So Director Feng, why did you attend this premiere?"
"This is a good question. I came to the premiere and was naturally invited by Shao Shuaijun. You know, I once bought one of his scripts. It was this money that made "Buried Alive" a success. You said
Should I come?"
"Can you tell me what the script is?"
"Pure love in the 1970s, "Hawthorn Love"."
"So when will the filming start? As far as I know you are already filming "A Thousand Miles Alone"?"
"Don't worry, "Crazy Stone" will be a big hit no matter what. Shao Shuai has a gun, let's take it out and start filming, haha." Zhang Yimou made a joke, then signed his name on the poster and entered the cinema. Shao Shuaijun personally
When Zhang Yimou was seated, it was not only Zhang Yimou's status, but also a sense of gratitude. As he said, it was only with that 150,000 yuan that he could be where he is now.
…
At half past seven, the theater was already full, with 500 seats, 200 for artists, 200 for media, and only less than 100 people who bought tickets.
The lights went out and the big screen lit up. First there was the dragon logo of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, then the logo of Huayi Brothers, and then the list of the main creative staff in white letters on a black background. Mr. Han and other people who had nothing to do with the movie were all
The identity of the producer was listed on it.
Finally, the words "Director Shao Shuaijun" appeared, followed by English letters, and the screen began to appear three seconds later.
First, Bao Shihong (played by Guo Tao) was checking for prostate problems in the hospital. The doctor (played by Liu Sanxi) took cotton wool and poked his buttocks. Then Guo Tao ended the first set of scenes with a painful expression on his face.
"The beginning is a bit vulgar."
Hang Dajun took a pen and wrote a few words on the paper, and shook his head: "The advertisement is also unbelievable. The beginning is so vulgar. It seems that this movie cannot escape the framework of low-level taste."
Hang Dajun is a reporter from a newspaper in Shanghai. He once reported on "Buried Alive" and was deeply attracted by "Buried Alive". He began to pay attention to Shao Shuaijun, a young director. This time, it took a long time to get the chance to attend the premiere.
The ticket is just to see Shao Shuaijun's new film and get first-hand information.
But this beginning did not surprise Hang Dajun.
Then, the scene changed, and the scenery on the ground started to be shot from the cable car. The face of the mountain city was unobstructed and unique. This made Hang Dajun become a little interested. When Xie Xiaomeng (played by Peng Bo)'s shameless lines about picking up girls came on,
Especially the sentence "The city is the mother body, and we live in her womb", an aunt next to her rolled her eyes and said "Rogue!".
Hang Dajun immediately became happy, and many people in the cinema laughed out loud.
Next, Xie Xiaomeng failed to pick up a girl, but was stepped on by the girl's shoe heel, and accidentally dropped a can of Coke from the cable car. The Coke was flying all the way, the screen flickered, and "Crazy Stone" was printed on the screen in Chinese and English. The movie officially started.
In just five minutes, Hang Dajun was attracted by the plot: "It turned out to be a multi-threaded narrative, a classic Guy Ritchie technique, unconventional, and logically rigorous, great!" Hang Dajun directly wrote the previous few words.
I crossed out the words and wanted to write something more, but I was afraid of delaying my movie viewing, so I simply put the notebook away.
Don’t worry about the comments for now, just watch it and enjoy it!
