The entire filming and post-production of the new film did not take long.

In fact, in this era of post-production special effects at every turn, it is very rare for such a movie with a small and medium-sized cost to completely follow the story route.

Of course, there are a lot of non-theatrical films, experimental films, and so on shot all over the world every year.

But most of these basically do not have the opportunity to enter the cinema chain.

And this new movie, directed by Demi and starring Lao Huo, set the tone for key films when the entire film project was established, and it can be screened in theaters around the world.

The whole movie was not filmed for a long time, in fact, this thriller does not have too many technical shots, basically the panorama and most of the close-ups, and the most important thing is to see the performance status of several actors.

Before the filming of the movie started, Demi felt that what he was most worried about was that he made a temporary decision to let an inexperienced newcomer like Lao Huo be the protagonist.

However, when it was time for the official start of filming, Lao Huo's performance was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

His performance state, and finally presented the image of the character in the camera, even more vivid than several other professional actors in the play.

Recommended, the app I've been using recently, Android and iPhone are all supported!

It is precisely because of this that the filming stage of the entire movie was a full month less than expected.

Then there was the post-processing, because there was no need for special effects shots, so it took less than two months for the post-editing to be completed, and the distribution companies behind it also began to promote it intensively.

Now, three months after the campaign,

Tonight, the entire film will premiere in a large auditorium in New York City.

At five o'clock, Lao Huo came to this theater in advance accompanied by his son. Then, under the guidance of the staff, wait in the background.

Compared with the previous arrangement, he took the car to the door of the theater with the director and walked a simple little red carpet, Lao Huo is still willing to do this, come over with his son, and wait in the back in a low-key manner.

According to Lao Huo's statement: "I'm a bad old man, what are you doing there, the media and those young people look at it as a beautiful Starling, I'm a bad old man, so I won't join in the fun!"

For the stubborn old Huo, even director Demi has no choice.

If people don't come, they can't pull him.

When you are on the red carpet when you are big, if something unexpected happens, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing.

If you don't come, don't come, anyway, before the movie was officially released, he, the leading actor, was not particularly famous in the outside world. Moreover, because he is an ordinary old man, he was unexpectedly able to participate in the annual key film projects of big producers, which also caused some controversy in the United States.

Everything, wait until the movie is officially released, let the real performance in the movie slap these guys in the face!

Arthur, who was sitting in the backstage of the theater with Lao Huo, seemed a little restless.

He was a little worried about his father's state and whether his father could catch it at the next premiere.

Before at home, he still complained all the way that Lao Huo didn't come according to the director's arrangement, and had to drive him to the theater by himself. Now, he didn't think about it at all.

Ma is about to go to the premiere, the filming situation, Lao Huo's performance, whether he can support the protagonist image of such an important film, and the next premiere, whether those media will embarrass Lao Huo, this is what Arthur is a little worried about.

Because he is a publisher, he has some understanding of the media and public opinion.

During this time, he also learned about the movie that Lao Huo participated in through his own relationship. Because Lao Huo signed a confidentiality agreement, and then with his temper, he would definitely not say a word to Arthur, so Arthur only needs to secretly check through the relationship there.

Arthur has a general understanding of the situation of the new movie, and it is said that the shooting and subsequent review are very smooth, but there are still many people who have some doubts about this movie.

In fact, it is mainly concentrated on the director Demi and the starring Lao Huo.

Director Demi has some popularity in Hollywood, but his ability, in fact, is not the best. And this time, Universal, one of the Big Six, gave him such an important project, and it was a key thriller, and many people were actually not very optimistic about his coaching ability.

In Hollywood, or in the Western film industry, although thrillers are not the kind of genre that will definitely sell worldwide, they are a genre that is very popular in the industry.

It accompanies the development and growth of films, and in the history of world cinema, many amazing directors have made thrillers.

And the grasp of the entire rhythm of a thriller, including the setting of thriller elements, etc., is a very, very test of a director's ability.

And the reason why this one, which has now announced the title, can be listed as a key project of this year by Universal is enough to show the excitement and difficulty of its script story. Even, it is said that Universal wants to use this one to impact next year's Oscars.

Therefore, for such a movie, there was some controversy about letting Demi shoot it in the end, and it is even said that this movie was originally given to another big director, but the latter had some accidents, so it was given to him in the end.

Another question is that Demi, who is in charge of such an important film, unexpectedly chose a non-professional actor as the starring role.

A thriller like this, in general, depends very much on the acting skills of the leading actors.

The starring actor is not good, even if it is a very good script, the final effect on the screen will not be much better.

For a person like Lao Huo, who has no acting experience at all, can become the actor of the protagonist, there is also a lot of speculation in the outside world.

Even Arthur's body was suspected.

In short, Arthur is still very worried about Lao Huo's situation.

After all, he is in his seventies, and he also knows that Lao Huo's self-esteem is actually very strong, if the movie is released, or even at the premiere, he will not be able to stand it.

However, after following him in, Lao Huo, who was sitting there, seemed very calm.

"Mr. Hopkins. ”

At this time, a staff member from the scene suddenly came in outside and handed Lao Huo a folder, "Here are some questions that Director Demi asked me to send you, and some questions that may be mentioned at the premiere later, you can make some preparations in advance." ”

"Okay, thanks. ”

Lao Huo took the manuscript and read it carefully.

After all, such a premiere, some speeches on the spot, may affect the publicity of the entire movie after that, so he is still very serious.

"Lao Huo, you relax, when the time comes, try to talk as little as possible, and let Director Demi help you speak, don't be nervous. ”

Arthur saw that Daddy was watching earnestly there, and also patted him on the shoulder.

Lao Huo turned his head to look at him: "I'm very relaxed, besides, why should I be nervous?"

"Uh......"

Arthur looked at him, "The premiere is coming, and when the time comes, there will be many professional filmmakers who will watch the film and see your performance...... Aren't you excited, or nervous?"

"Why be nervous?"

Lao Huo asked again.

"Hmm...... Then you are silent all the way, and you rarely speak, what are you thinking? ”

Arthur looked at him.

"I was thinking about the previous time when I went to meet Mr. Lin Bao from the East, and talked about some of the skills and experiences in acting. ”

Lao Huo said, "At that time, he said several points, and I actually vaguely felt that it was very important, but at that time, I had too many feelings. In the past few days, I have watched a lot of performances by famous actors at home, and I think that it is really like what Mr. Lin Bao said, this performance is still very deeply studied!"

Arthur next to him looked at his father, a little disbelieving.

This is your first movie, as a starring movie, to be screened, what kind of acting theory are you still thinking about there?

Perhaps, this may be a way for my dad to divert his attention and relieve his nervousness.

Arthur didn't have much to do, and waited there with his father.

After waiting for about an hour, the door was opened again, and the on-site staff came in again to tell them that it was time.

"Okay, let's go out. ”

Lao Huo put down the folder in his hand, and then walked outside with Arthur.

When he arrived in the theater and the live activity area, Arthur gave Lao Huo a few words of advice, and then entered the guest area through another passage.

Lao Huo suddenly covered his stomach and said to the staff accompanying him: "Please ask, where is the bathroom?"

"Oh, over there, over there, there's going to be a sign, Mr. Hopkin. ”

The on-site staff said thoughtfully, "I'm waiting for you here." ”

"No, no, no. ”

Lao Huo waved his hand, "You go get busy, I'll wait for the next time, just go over by yourself!"

"Okay then...... Wait, you can enter through the work passage here, and there will be staff inside. ”

"Okay, thanks. ”

Lao Huo nodded, then turned around and went to the toilet over there, and when he came back, he followed the guidance of the staff member just now and entered through the working passage over there.

At the door, there were two middle-aged people in suits standing, who saw Lao Huo coming over from there and said, "I'm sorry, sir, this is the work channel, if you want to enter the event site, you can go out from here, turn left, and enter from the guest passage." ”

"That's where I came. ”

Lao Huo explained, "The lady who took me just now said, let me enter from here. ”

"Excuse me, do you have identification?"

The staff looked at him.

"Proof of employment?"

Lao Huo was a little puzzled.

He didn't get any proof.

"I don't have proof, but I'm an actor in this movie, so you can explain that to the director here. ”

Lao Huo didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing, so he immediately said.

"You're an actor?"

The two staff members looked at him, some of them suspicious.

According to the previous publicity, it seems that the starring role of this movie at today's premiere is an old man.

However, looking at the old man in front of him who was dressed ordinarily and looked like an ordinary person, how could he be an actor who starred in such a big movie?

"I just looked at the poster over there, and it seems that it really is, he is a bit like the main actor of that poster. ”

A man whispered.

But that made them feel even more unbelievable.

The leading actor, how could such a big coffee suddenly appear here.

Shouldn't he have followed the director and them over there on the red carpet?

Therefore, their suspicions about Lao Huo's identity are the greatest.

When I do live events, I know that there are often people who pretend to be staff members, and then go backstage, wanting to meet those idol stars of their own. Such a thing will disrupt the order of the scene, and second, some dangers may even occur, so they do not dare to let people enter through such a passage casually.

However, if it is true, when the time comes, it will be you who will be unlucky in the end, and then, one of the staff members still said politely: "This way, sir, you wait here first, and I will go over there to find the supervisor to confirm your identity." ”

"Okay. ”

Lao Huo also nodded.

"You're here watching. ”

After admonishing his companion, the staff member quickly walked away and found the director of the live event over there.

"Who?starring??Mr. Hopkins?"

The supervisor was also a little surprised.

As the leading actor, shouldn't he follow the director, and now he has entered the event site?

How did it end up here?

After hesitating for a moment, he immediately followed over and saw Lao Huo waiting outside the door.

"Mr. Hopkins?"

The director looked at Lao Huo, it was indeed very similar to the poster, and then said, "I'm sorry, I still want to confirm your identity, you are Mr. Hopkins, and you are the star of this premiere movie." Because the live event is about to start, I'll take you in and let someone from the organizer over there confirm your identity. If not, I'm sorry, I'll you out anyway. Moreover, you also don't have a chance to enter through the guest channel. ”

"OK, no problem. ”

Lao Huo smiled and nodded.

Immediately, the two of them entered the backstage workspace together.

The on-site supervisor took Lao Huo all the way to the hall where the premiere was held.

Over there, the event is about to begin.

The director and a group of main creative staff are already waiting in the audience.

"Lao Huo!"

Before the two of them walked up, they saw someone shouting towards this side, and walked over, "Lao Huo, where are you going, the horse is about to start, without you, this meeting can't start!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry ......"

Lao Huo was busy following the past.

Behind, the supervisor of the on-site event looked at Lao Huo's background and also stared.

This old man is really the star of the movie!

They must all be star-level figures.

I'm so clumsy, I almost turned him away just now!

Fortunately, I thought about it a little more and didn't drive him away.

It seems that I still have to exercise my eyesight......

Just as he was thinking about it and was about to leave, Lao Huo over there suddenly turned around and ran over and said to him, "Sir, I forgot to say thank you just now." ”

"No...... Kind ......"

Looking at the old man who left in a hurry after leaving a sentence, the supervisor swallowed his saliva, making sure that the other party's tone was sincere, not yin and yang, and he was slightly relieved.
