In the cinema, the screening of "The Ghost Story" has not yet started.
In the premiere seat, Rabbit Bill was telling a joke to Fat Jack, "It was said that an old nun took a group of young nuns on a bicycle trip. The young nuns were always making noises along the way, and finally the old nun couldn't help it anymore.
, warned the young nuns: 'If you keep yelling, I'll put the seat back on the bicycle!'"
"Damn it, this joke is so outdated, it's not funny at all!" Fat Jack frowned.
Fatty's movies have been receiving a "cold reception" recently, and the box office has been even more miserable. How can anyone bother to listen to Bill Rabbit telling jokes here?
Rabbit Bill is also enjoying the hardships. His movie "Terror Cruise" is not much better than Fatty's "Buried Alive". Now he is accompanying Yi Feiyang to watch the premiere of "Ghost", and he just wants to change the atmosphere
Adjust it so that after the movie is over, everyone will look sad again...
It's not that he has no confidence in Yi Feiyang, it's mainly because there are so many powerful people in this Halloween season, and it's not easy for newcomers to get ahead.
Of course Yi Feiyang understood Rabbit Bill's "good intentions", but he still gave him a slap on the head without hesitation.
"Remember, don't tell such obscene jokes in the future; secondly, even if you tell them, don't tell them dirty jokes about nuns; finally, even if you tell dirty jokes about nuns, don't tell them in front of Miss Hathaway! Do you understand?
!”
After Yi Feiyang said this, he glanced at Anne Hathaway next to him with some shame, roughly meaning that he was "not strict in discipline" and please forgive me.
Hathaway's pretty face turned red. She originally wanted to pretend she didn't understand anything, but who knew that it would be impossible to pretend she didn't understand when Yi Feiyang showed up like this.
He had no choice but to "cough", tuck the hair that had fallen down his face behind his ears, and said with a blush, "The movie is about to start, let's watch the movie!"
Rabbit Bill touched his painful forehead from being knocked by Yi Feiyang, and looked at Hathaway with some confusion, wondering, why can't he talk about nuns in front of her? Originally, he had a wonderful line about "nuns helping priests to play the trumpet" that he didn't show up.
Come out, it seems like you are hiding your clumsiness now.
Fortunately, following Hathaway's answer, the theater actually turned off the lights and prepared to show "The Ghost Story", and the originally noisy surroundings became quiet.
There are not too many people in the cinema, but compared to ordinary horror movies, it is still very good. In fact, the good "attendance rate" is thanks to the "Haunted House Story" that Yi Feiyang worked on before. Everyone wants to watch it
Look, what kind of horror is this "ghost movie" filmed in a "haunted house"?
In fact, Yi Feiyang's "haunted house" promotion strategy benefited not only from the drama that is now being screened, but also from the old building where they filmed it.
Just like what Yi Feiyang said to the landlord of that building, Mr. Smith, that area has now become one of the must-visit places for many young people who like excitement.
Although it has not become a real "tourist resort", it can still earn fifty or sixty US dollars in "visit fees" every day. As the saying goes, "a little adds up to a lot". Such sweetness also made Mr. Smith smile from ear to ear. Seeing it
The black dad praised him for introducing a good crew.
As for the black dad, he was originally very embarrassed to meet Smith. Originally, he introduced the crew to an old friend and wanted him to earn rent. But in the end, Smith was deceived by the cunning guy Yi Feiyang.
He pocketed $500 to pay the crew's so-called "publicity fees."
But now, the black dad has to bow to Yi Feiyang's admiration.
What does "accurate prediction" mean?
What does "turning decay into magic" mean?
Look, this is it!
The movie was finally released to much anticipation.
On the big screen: a curvy mermaid jumped out of the blue ocean and splashed into beautiful waves.
The American audience who saw the "title" of Fantasy Pictures for the first time couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's so beautiful" and "It's so dreamy"!
However, some viewers questioned, "Is this the visual effect that a horror movie should have? Why not splash some blood and make some hideous skulls?"
Yes, in Hollywood in the United States, many film companies that are good at making horror films almost always have scary titles.
For example, in the title sequence of Lionsgate Films, countless mechanical gears rotate, finally forming a mysterious door, and then two doors with lions engraved on them open... The whole thing gives people the feeling of a secret room and darkness.
The opening title of Dimension Pictures is almost retro-dark, and then the company name composed of a blue lightning appears, and the artistic conception is self-explanatory.
And the most awesome thing is undoubtedly a skull appearing on the big screen, staring at you fiercely, but Yi Feiyang forgot which movie company it was from.
No matter what the effect of a film company's title is and what its meaning is, it can basically give everyone a strong psychological hint as to what type of film the company is shooting, or what type of film it is good at.
For example, it's a fairy tale castle type like Disney's. Needless to say, the filming location is of course an animated blockbuster.
With the mermaid label of Fantasy Pictures, people's first instinct is that it is either a fairy tale film or a romance film, but everyone knows that the upcoming film is a real thriller.
What does this mean?
It shows that Fantasy Pictures has great ambitions. It is not limited to making thrillers or horror films, but may also be involved in other types of films in the future. For a newly established film company, this is very unwise. Because of the types of films
Diversified shooting is the exclusive domain of big film companies, because only big film companies have that kind of strength and cost. How do you, a small film company, want to shake things up?!
Of course, this kind of problem can only be studied by professionals. The audience here does not care about this. They are eagerly waiting for the movie to start. But invisibly, the mermaid factory logo of Fantasy Pictures has been quietly transplanted into their hearts.
.
…
With the thrilling plot development, time will feel like it passes very quickly.
The nearly ninety-minute movie ended quickly.
Throughout the screening, there were constant screams, and an atmosphere of tension, shock, and fear filled the entire cinema.
Every audience member sitting on the chair can even hear each other's intense heartbeats. Yes, that thump, thump heartbeat, accompanied by the shocking rhythm of the movie, seems to be jumping out of the chest.
If there are no people around you, Hu will make you feel that you are not sitting in a movie theater, but in a cemetery where ghosts are floating around. Everything on the big screen will make you shudder!
…
Cinema, on the big screen.
As the heroine Jiayun played by Anne Hathaway was attacked by an evil spirit that suddenly appeared... Immediately, the resurrected "Jiayun" turned off the DV player with a strange smile, and the movie came to an end.
The mermaid logo of Fantasy Pictures appeared again on the big screen, and there were a few lines of very small text below the logo, "Producer: Feiyang-Yi" and "Any similarity to this film is purely fictitious", but these words are all
It was very small, and it only lasted for one or two seconds, so it was inconspicuous; and the audience was so frightened that no one paid attention to the words.
When the audience came to their senses, sighs and discussions broke out, filling the entire cinema hall.
Although these people have been baptized by the pseudo-documentary "Blair Witch", Yi Feiyang has taken a different approach this time and even implanted the most terrifying American version of "The Grudge" story in his previous life into "The Ghost Story".
The whole drama combines the horror essence of these two dramas, making it so terrifying that it makes people laugh from ear to ear.
You know, the original story of "The Grudge" is already scary enough, but Yi Feiyang used the DV shooting technique of "The Grudge" to make the audience mistakenly think that this is a movie adapted from a true story... not to mention that there have been movies before
The "haunted house story" told by journalist Inger in newspapers and magazines brought the sense of immersion and fear to the peak of watching the film.
"It's so crazy! Oh, God! When that evil spirit emerged bloody from the pool, it really scared me to death. Oh my god, is there really a ghost in this world?"
"Yes, I was shocked too! Especially the guy who appeared in the attic crawling on all fours, it was scarier than the little girl in "The Exorcist"!"
"We must call that guy Johnson to come and have a look. I can't wait to see how scared that guy will be!"
"Needless to say, he will definitely be so scared that he wets his pants..."
Two young white men walked through the aisle between the seats. One of them still couldn't shake off the fear the movie had brought to him; the other was happily preparing a scary plan.
"God, what kind of ghost movie is this? That damn director must be some kind of devil to come up with such a terrible story! Oh, damn! This is the scariest horror movie I've ever seen! I regret watching it now.
, I think I will not be able to sleep, and I will have nightmares when I fall asleep, shit..." A young black man cursed endlessly to his friends as they passed by the aisle.
Yi Feiyang sat in his seat, listening to these words from the leaving audience. He felt more fulfilled than ever before. He closed his eyes slightly, feeling and enjoying everything.
Why do some people like to be directors so much?
Because the director can control people's emotions, bring them emotions, and even make them feel their own emotions.
For example, now, Yi Feiyang can feel the breath of surprise in the air around him. The surprise brought by terror is definitely an irresistible toxin that will make you deeply addicted.
Anne Hathaway next to him did not disturb him. She looked at Yi Feiyang, her elegant and beautiful cheeks were filled with tranquility. She could feel Yi Feiyang's heart, the heart that touched dreams and achieved success.
To be honest, from the beginning, Hathaway was very resistant to filming this movie. In her opinion, her dream is not to be an actress, but to be an excellent and outstanding nun. But now, for the first time, she
I felt the "fun" of being an actor.
Yes, that’s “fun”!
The "fun" of touching people's fearful nerves!
As for Rabbit Bill and Fat Jack, who were worried at the beginning that this drama would become cannon fodder and a laughing stock like themselves, they both looked at Yi Feiyang in disbelief and admiration.
What does "people are more annoying than others"?
What is "high contrast"?
This is it!!!
After sitting there for a long time, the audience left one by one, and then sporadic new audiences came in.
Yi Feiyang suddenly opened his eyes, took a breath, and looked at Hathaway, who was smiling. Hathaway smiled at him and said, "Congratulations, Yi."
Yi Feiyang raised the corner of his mouth and said: "Hathaway, thank you."
"Boss, congratulations, you succeeded! This drama is really great!" Rabbit Bill praised sincerely.
"Thank you too! Thank you for supporting me!" Yi Feiyang said sincerely.
"Okay, guys, let's not sit here anymore! This drama has done so well, shouldn't we go celebrate?" Fat Jack said with a smile.
"That's a must! Come on, let's go out for a drink or two, and I'll pay for it!" Yi Feiyang said boldly.
As soon as the four of them walked out of the movie hall, Yi Feiyang's hand rang. The call was from Gao Jiabao.
On the phone, Gao Jiabao's voice was very excited. He shouted: "Ayang, it's so fun! They were so scared that they almost peed their pants! Haha, there was a guy next to me. He jumped up because of that last bit.
, rushing around like crazy, shouting "Help me, ah!" Haha, what a great harvest, but it's a pity that it's too late now, otherwise I really want to watch it again, the reactions of these people are so interesting.
"
It turns out that Gao Jiabao went to other cinemas to check the premiere results, and they seemed to be very good.
Yi Feiyang finished listening to Gao Jiabao's call, and Hathaway next to her also ended her call. She shook the phone in her hand, smiled and announced the good news: "Yi, my ballet dancing friend said that she and her friends are all
They were scared to death, and their hearts have not calmed down yet."
Yi Feiyang said "Wow" and said with a smile: "Good news, it looks like our movie is really awesome."
Rabbit Bill and Fat Jack interjected: "Haha, that goes without saying! As long as you personally take action, Boss Yi, you won't scare the shit out of those guys?!"
"Having said that," Yi Feiyang shrugged and said with a smile, "it's better for us to be more modest. After all, there are so many masters in this period!"
"Yeah, I don't know what the comments will say tomorrow..." Rabbit Bill held his chin and said deeply.
"Comment? I think it shouldn't be too bad, right?" Fat Jack didn't care about this and was in a hurry to drink and celebrate.
"Haha, nothing in this world can be imagined. I only believe that man can conquer nature!" Yi Feiyang said with a smile.
Yeah, what’s a comment?!
No matter how bad it is, I still have the power to make a difference!
(I have been staying with my mother in the hospital for the past few days, and I often can’t type until I get home in the morning. However, I will definitely keep my promise. I promise to update 10,000 words a day when I put it on the shelves. I will finish it even if I don’t eat, sleep or rest!
This is the only bit of character I have left! Thank you all again for your support and love! Thank you! I burst into tears!!!)
