Chapter 109: Brother Du is the best
After eating in a good atmosphere, Ning Yuerong went to settle the bill, and then proposed to go to the mall, and Du Caige was not allowed to leave, so she had to take him to go shopping.
After shopping around for a while, she proposed to go to the movies again.
Just bought three tickets, Ning Yuerong pretended to answer the phone, and then said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I have a case to follow, I can't play with you today, you have fun yourself." ”
What kind of case can you have as the head of a public security detachment? I know that she did it on purpose, but Du Caige and Liu Zifei are not easy to say.
"That ......" After Ning Yuerong left, Du Caige looked at Liu Zifei, "Since the tickets have been bought, let's just finish reading, right?"
He looked down at the movie ticket, "The evaluation of this "Three Heroes of Jinmen" seems to be good, I also like martial arts movies, and I like the movies directed by Shu Yihuan." What do you think?"
Liu Zifei had a faint expectation in her eyes, "I can do it! Any type of movie is fine, as long as I don't watch documentary movies." ”
Du Caige went to buy some popcorn and Coke, and the two walked into the cinema side by side.
Liu Zifei looked down at Du Caige's hand, she almost put her little hand into Du Caige's palm, and pretended to be touched inadvertently when she waved her hand several times, but this wood just didn't catch it.
Looking up at Du Caige's serious and serious appearance, she knew that she couldn't be in a hurry, and it was impossible for Du Caige to hold her hand at this stage.
As for giving up?
How can it be!
It's rare to meet such a high-quality man.
These days, she tossed and turned for many nights, and she never made up her mind.
Even if she knows that Du Caige used to be a representative of scumbags, she has played with countless women and gained notoriety in the entertainment industry; even if it is obvious that Du Caige and Duan Xiaochen have a story; even if she knows that she is really not competitive with Duan Xiaochen; even if she knows very well that she and Du Caige have not really started.
But she just couldn't control it.
She couldn't deny Du Caige's attraction to her. And for Du Caige's past reputation, she selectively ignored it, she only believed everything she saw.
The media said that Lin Ke was unpopular, arrogant and capricious, arrogant and domineering, but the Du Caige she saw was gentle and polite, personable, deep and wise.
Ay!
She didn't have the confidence to compete with Duan Xiaochen.
But he was not willing to give up.
Take a step, look at a step.
......
Du Caige was naturally very aware of the girl's small movements, but he could only pretend that he hadn't noticed anything. If it is debunked on the spot, it will hurt people's self-esteem too much.
Since he has chatted a lot with Liu Zifei on the Internet recently, it is not that there is no topic, so he casually found a topic to divert the other party's attention.
After finding a place to sit, the two were still chatting quietly. It wasn't until the beginning of the movie that they stopped talking and watched intently.
Neither of them has the habit of talking while watching a movie, and even if they want to exchange ideas, they will wait until after the show.
At the beginning of a tense fight, the protagonist appears, and then the subtitles are released: "Three Heroes of Jinmen".
Du Caige had seen the overwhelming publicity about this movie on the Internet before.
An action movie with an investment of 270 million, the most cutting-edge special effects, directed by international director Shu Yihuan, received rave reviews when it was screened, and got a box office of 200 million in 3 days of release......
However, after watching it for more than 30 minutes, Du Caige made a judgment in his heart: this movie is very ordinary.
The advantage is that the narrative is quite fluent, the distribution of jokes is not bad, the director is a storyteller, and the special effects are really good, close to the Hollywood special effects around 2007-2008 on the earth. That's right, he's talking about "Iron Man 1", "Transformers 1", "Hulk", "Harry Potter 6", "The Mummy 3", etc.
But there is still a gap compared to 2009's "Avatar".
The disadvantage is that there are still some problems with the plot of this movie, and the plot tension is not enough and it is not very attractive.
The shooting of the action scenes is also very old-fashioned, and the action design is roughly equivalent to the level of the 90s on the earth, and it is not even as good as Li Lianjie's "Huang Feihong" and "Fang Shiyu" series, which makes Du Caige unacceptable.
In general, it can only be considered decent. If it is released at the same time on the earth, it is estimated that it will not be able to find the north.
But when I heard the whispers, exclamations and laughter of the audience next to me, I thought of the box office of 200 million in 3 days of this movie.
If there is no moisture in this data, it can only be said that the level of movies on Azure Star at this time is far less than that of 2008 on Earth.
When the movie ended and the lights came on, Liu Zifei did not get up immediately, but read the cast and crew seriously.
Then she got up and stretched, smiling: "It's really a good movie! I'm strange, it's a pity that such a good movie doesn't compete for the summer or Spring Festival files, and it's a pity to show it now." ”
Du Caige smiled: "Well, the movie is good." How much do you expect this film to get at the box office?"
Liu Zifei thought for a while: "If you have 200 million in 3 days, with such a strong momentum, it should be no problem to get 2 billion at the domestic box office in the end." Counting - overseas box office, it should be able to get more than 4 billion. What do you think?"
Du Caige smiled but did not speak.
He didn't seriously study the film market of Azure Star.
And although he thinks that the quality of this movie is very average, he feels that getting 200 million in 3 days is the credit of marketing, and he will lack stamina after that.
But he didn't dare to pack the ticket either.
The film market of Azure Star is completely different from the situation on Earth in 2008.
First of all, the Blue Star Dahua is a little richer than the Earth-China of the same period, the number of movie theaters is larger, the people's income is higher, the anti-piracy is also done better, and the level of consumption of the people in entertainment is definitely much higher than that on the earth.
In addition, the status of Azure Star Dahua in the international community is very high, the cultural output is very strong, and Dahua martial arts films, action movies, etc. are very popular in the international community, and their influence is quite large.
Compared with the Hollywood movies of the Stars and Stripes, it is only slightly inferior, and it has almost formed a trend of confrontation, which is unimaginable to Chinese on the earth.
Until Du Caige crossed over, Chinese films on the earth were also at an absolute disadvantage compared to Hollywood movies, unreachable, far inferior to the films of the Cherry Blossom Country and the Stick Country, and the international reputation was even inferior to the films of the Three Kingdoms.
But in the blue star, the filmmakers of the cherry blossom country, the stick country, and the three kingdoms of Argentina all have to look up to the filmmakers of the Dahua country, and the films of the Dahua country can sweep billions of box office revenue in the cherry blossom country, stick country, and Southeast Asia every year. As for the three kingdoms...... Their market is too closed, and it is difficult for Dahua films to squeeze in.
If you look at the movies of Azure Star Dahua with the views and perspectives formed on the earth, there will definitely be a big deviation.
So Du Caige didn't want to comment easily.
Instead of saying his predictions, he asked: "Without discussing the plot, we look at the film from the director's point of view." What details impressed you, what did you think you didn't do well enough, and what shots did you think were problematic and should be shot from a different angle?"
The two walked outside the movie theater, Liu Zifei thought for a while, gave a few opinions, and asked Du Caige what he thought.
Du Caige said a few of his opinions lightly.
Liu Zifei listened to it, and didn't feel anything at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that what Du Caige said was so reasonable.
She has always admired Du Caige, and feels that Du Caige is better than herself in film shooting, and even much better than Director Zhou of the TV station.
But she never thought that Du Caige could compete with an international director like Director Shu.
It's not a level at all, and there's no way to make comparisons.
After thinking about it, Liu Zifei came to such a conclusion: Many things are easier to say than to do. Du Ge may have a good theoretical foundation, but when he actually asks him to shoot, he may not be able to express what he wants to shoot.
Now that Brother Du is right, he really let him direct, and he must not have done a good job as Director Shu.
Yes, yes, yes.
Of course, although Brother Du is not as powerful as Director Shu, he is still much more powerful than himself. Thinking of this, Liu Zifei looked at Du Caige's eyes full of tenderness and admiration.
