With the good mood of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" becoming a hit in the ratings, Wang Zhengfei boarded a plane to Yanjing, and traveling with him was Liu Yifei. During this period, Liu Yifei has been following the crew of "Legend of Sword" to various locations across the country.
The publicity was basically done without fail, which made Tangren's top management look at it with admiration.
However, after a month of publicity, the publicity time agreed between Wang Zhengfei and Tangren's senior management was almost over.
This time he flew to Yanjing to attend the premiere of "The Myth". He accepted Jackie Chan's invitation a few months ago, and Wang Zhengfei agreed at that time, so he couldn't miss this trip to the premiere.
, and Wang Zhengfei doesn't hate attending this premiere, and he doesn't reject it, so he goes. After attending this premiere, Wang Zhengfei will fly to Shanghai and return to the crew of "Qin Shi Mingyue" to participate in some preliminary work.
After training, we will lead the team to Hengdian to prepare for shooting, and Liu Yifei will also accompany us.
On this trip to Yanjing, Liu Xiaoli did not go with her. Although she had a family in Yanjing, she still went directly to Shanghai to wait for Liu Yifei to arrive in Shanghai the next day.
Chen Long has been preparing for this myth for a long time, hoping to open up the mainland market. In recent years, he has mostly gone to Hollywood to develop. However, his development in Hollywood cannot be said to be smooth, but it cannot be said that it is not smooth. After all, there are box office numbers.
However, as I got older, I still felt that my hometown was better than staying in the United States, so I came back, hoping to achieve good results in China.
Therefore, preparations for the premiere were huge, and this time the premiere was held in Yanjing, not in Hong Kong. No matter how developed Hong Kong is and how big the market is, it is just a city and cannot compete with the entire mainland.
Compared with the huge market.
Wang Zhengfei and Liu Yifei first went to Xingchen Entertainment and had the makeup artist dress them up. Then they went there dressed casually with Liu Yifei.
Anyway, they are not the protagonists tonight. It is more like attending a party than a serious movie premiere.
However, it turns out that Wang Zhengfei's outfit attracts more attention. The reporters are busy, and reporters are not attracted by clothing. How much attention can be attracted depends entirely on how much a person has in reality.
social status.
Wang Zhengfei and Liu Yifei appeared at the premiere, which immediately attracted a lot of media attention, but it was only for taking pictures. They were blocked by security guards and couldn't get through to take pictures.
Seeing Wang Zhengfei coming over, Chen Long walked over with a smile on his face and said: "Zhengfei, you are finally here. Is the little girl next to you your girlfriend?"
Wang Zhengfei smiled and clearly felt that the strength of the pair of jade arms holding his arms was a little stronger. Although he enjoyed the soft elasticity, he still had to say at this time: "No, this is my partner.
, Liu Yifei, is also the heroine of my next drama!"
Wang Zhengfei didn't notice the disappointed expression flashing across Liu Yifei's face, and said, "Hello, Brother Chen Long!"
"Hello, hello!" Chen Long smiled and shook hands with the two of them, then led the two of them into the cinema. All the big names in the cinema were already here, basically waiting for the time to come.
Let fans and reporters in.
"Come here, Zu Ming!" Chen Long shouted to his son Jaycee Chan who came to watch the premiere.
"Here we come!" Little House said as he trotted over when his father called him.
"Zhengfei, from now on, the ancestral name will be entrusted to you!" Chen Long said to Wang Zhengfei, referring to what happened in "Qin Shi Mingyue". He had gone to great lengths for this son.
"Please take good care of me in the future!" Jaycee Chan said obediently to Wang Zhengfei.
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you are not afraid of hard work!" Wang Zhengfei said, "Qin Shi Mingyue" was very hard to shoot.
"It is necessary to endure hardship. How can a man not endure hardship?" Chen Long said quickly.
A few people talked for a while, and the premiere almost started. It was similar to a normal movie premiere. These were not what Wang Zhengfei cared about. What Wang Zhengfei cared about was the content of the movie itself, although he had watched "The Myth" in his previous life.
, but now this is the revised version after his modifications.
The whole film still has content and scenes that can make Wang Zhengfei's eyes shine. For example, in the Disha Temple, Chen Long competes with two guards around the coffin, and another example is on the very sticky conveyor belt.
Chen Long cleverly used his opponent's shoes and hats and his own clothes to escape. These familiar scenes of Chen Long not only showed his most personal characteristics, but also made the audience laugh with joy. Wang Zhengfei recalled a movie like "New Police Story"
Hong Kong's 1980s-style films have received unanimous praise, which shows how much the audience misses the invincible Chan Ka-Kui and Ma Ru-lung, because that is Chan Lung, who can express himself freely even in a tight situation, and laugh and curse in times of crisis.
The next day, major media outlets came out with comments: "The entire story line runs through the alternation between ancient and modern times. This love epic that spans 2000 years has very high requirements on the scene. The crew also spent a lot of money to shoot scenes all over the world. From
From the vast expanse of fields to the mysterious Angkor Wat, to waterfall caves, and for the first time allowed to enter the Terracotta Warriors for on-site shooting, the constantly changing scenes are also one of the highlights of the film.
As he gets older and has more wrinkles on his face, Brother Chen Long is definitely no longer as flexible and strong as before. The film uses fantasy and ancient costumes to change the previous action and fighting methods. In the film, the ancient battlefield is full of swords and arrows.
"Ten thousand enemies", the "Flying General" who combines man and horse, and the spectacle of fighting under microgravity suspension conditions are all full of entertainment and sensory stimulation. In terms of plot, although it is suspected of imitating "Ancient and Modern Battles between Qin Terracotta Warriors",
However, "The Myth"'s parallel narrative structure of ancient and modern times, cleverly transitional visual editing, "sensational" detailed foreshadowing, and tragic and masculine war scenes seem to be more sophisticated and atmospheric." - World Movies "If you finish watching "Myth"
"The Myth" has received mixed reviews. I believe that in addition to the film's own problems, there is also the mentality of the audience. Young people from Hong Kong films who admire funny fights and work hard on Jackie Chan will probably not enjoy it. They will still think that Jackie Chan is old and relies on love scenes to cover up his shortcomings.
, but if you forget "Jackie Chan", don't expect surprises, just treat it as an entertainment blockbuster that combines many elements of love, action, and adventure. I believe "Myth" will satisfy you..." - Popular Fashion Weekly.
"Yu Shu loves Meng Yi. She is brave and fearless, and even dares to abandon her mission. She begs him to take her away. And I have never doubted Meng Yi's love for Yu Shu, but the Confucian idea of loyalty to the emperor made him
He sealed love tightly in his heart. Although he went through all kinds of hardships, he was still unable to break through the shackles of morality and took his beloved away. Instead, he brought her back to the old First Emperor; and she
, and eventually became Concubine Li - a concubine from Goryeo. From then on, she no longer cried, except when facing her lover - Meng Yi.
After waiting for two thousand years, she finally waited until he showed up with the same scar. I was moved to tears. I loved the scene when they met: the soft and affectionate music seemed to be conveying this ageless love.
Flying freely in the air, like a lover turning into a butterfly, the countless rotations in the world are just a foil for thousands of years of waiting. Even though ancient people and objects have returned to dust and earth, love has not been lost in time and space.
However, the myth did not become a reality after all. Yu Shu finally discovered that Jack was not the Meng Yi who had promised her, and the outside world was not her world after all. Two thousand years of waiting, two thousand years of expectation, and two thousand years of waiting.
Disillusioned in a moment..." - Southern Metropolis Daily In front of the public, Wang Zhengfei was surprised to find that there were also his own film reviews among them. Although he was the original author of "Myth" and the screenwriter of this script,
But the screenwriter is just a screenwriter. First of all, it is not a movie like "Crazy Stone" that relies purely on scripts. Secondly, although "Crazy Stone" was produced by Wang Zhengfei at that time, it was also because of the "Crazy Stone" at that time.
"The Stone" doesn't have many famous people, so it has to bear Wang Zhengfei's name. But now, although "The Myth" is not as big as the gathering of big names in "Qin Shi Mingyue", it can definitely be regarded as a film with many star artists.
The name Chen Long is enough to attract most people's attention.
However, a considerable part of the media still focused on me, a seemingly insignificant screenwriter.
"Needless to say, Wang Zhengfei's ability as a screenwriter? Everyone knows it clearly. Whether it is "Immortal" or "Crazy Stone", Wang Zhengfei's talent is vividly displayed, and his imagination is as unconstrained as in "Myth"
"In ", Wang Zhengfei once again showed this kind of wild imagination!" - Watch the movie.
"There are many highlights in "Myth", including Chen Long's martial arts, the love scenes between Chen Long and Jin Xishan, and a lot of stunts. But I want to say that these are only superficial highlights. There is another deep-seated highlight, and that is Wang Zhengfei.
script!
This is the third script that Wang Zhengfei has made into a movie and released since his debut. These three scripts with completely different styles reflect Wang Zhengfei’s versatility. Although "Immortal" and "Crazy Stone" are two completely different
scripts, but they all reflect Wang Zhengfei's meticulous thinking and logic, and in "The Myth" written by Wang Zhengfei, there is more of an unbridled imagination. When this story was written, it was said that he was only in high school, and maybe he was still in high school at that time.
He has not developed such a rigorous thinking logic, but it has already begun to take shape. Don’t forget, he is only a twenty-year-old young man, and his future has unlimited possibilities!” - Nandu Weekly
