Chapter 590: The Shadow of the National Teacher

Before the National Day, several films were working hard to promote, holding various press conferences and premieres. Lu Lin's side is no exception, and he has to take time to attend the premiere of someone else's house.

Not to mention anything else, "Shadow" directed by Zhang Yimu still has to go with Jing Yan. Although "The Great Wall" is of limited help to Jing Yan, it can be regarded as a "support" grace after all.

One more thing to mention is that director Wang Jing once said on "Round Table Pie": Zhang Yimu's "The Great Wall", I knew that this film was over when I saw one-third of it, because I didn't know what to do next.

And netizens said on the barrage: I know that this film is not good after watching it for a minute, and you actually have to watch it for a third of the time.

At two o'clock in the afternoon of the 27th, the premiere of "Shadow" was held at the IMAX International Cinema in Jinquan Port.

In addition to the main creative stars, there are not many celebrity guests who came to attend the premiere, which cannot be compared with the star-studded premiere of Jiang Wen's "Evil Does Not Prevail".

The guests at the scene were mainly executives of the production company, such as Zhang Zhao, chairman and CEO of Lechuang Entertainment, Huang Ziye, senior vice president, Chen Yingjie, vice president of Shenghai Penguin Pictures, Lian Jie, chairman of Perfect World Film and Television, Yu Dong, chairman of Bona, and more than ten executives of famous film and television companies.

These people are all related characters of the producer, product, and distributor of "Shadow", so Lu Lin and Jing Yan have nothing to do with this movie, and they are purely here to cheer.

After entering the venue, the two were arranged in the first row and sat next to Yu Dong. A few days ago, Lu Lin also had a meeting with Yu Dong, Chen Yingjie and others to talk about the publicity and distribution of "Daughter Country", and now they are meeting here, which is also quite interesting.

"It's rare that you can come over in your busy schedule!" Yu Dong laughed.

"The main thing is that Jing Yan has been thinking about coming over, and I have nothing to do, accompany her!"

Lu Lin and Zhang Yimu don't have much contact, and they don't owe any favors to each other, he came here purely to see the face.

The favors in the entertainment industry must be repaid if you owe them, otherwise they may be turned out by the other party or the media one day.

Director Feng Xiaogang once told the media in an interview that Zhou Xingxing was not interesting enough. asked him to help a lot, and when he invited Zhou to come over to attend the premiere, Zhou made every excuse that he didn't come.

Speaking of Zhou Xingxing, he helped Lu Lin by making a cameo appearance as a drunk boatman in "The Origin of the White Snake".

At the beginning, the two said that they would make cameos with each other, but in the movie "Mermaid 2", Zhou Xingxing felt that there was no suitable role for Lu Lin to come, and the cameo was currently shelved.

In addition to Yu Dong, the bosses of other companies at the scene, as well as the main creators of the film, also came to greet Lu Lin, such as Deng Chao and Hu Jun, all of whom had cooperated with Lu Lin.

Zheng Kai is an employee of Longlin, and Guan Xiaotong is a more popular actress among the younger generation. Especially with a height of 172, he put on high heels and walked in front of him, and he was slim.

"Hello Director Lu, hello Sister Jing Xiang!" The little girl came over and bowed slightly and smiled sweetly, and then began to talk about Jing Xiang's dress, but she could also talk hotly. However, time was limited, so I finally returned to my respective positions and sat down.

"Hey, what do you think of this girl?" Jing Yan suddenly asked.

Lu Lin was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?"

The young lady said: "I'm thinking, if she has potential, she can pull into our company!"

Lu Linxin said: "If you want to help me open a harem, I can still raise some spirit!" but said: "It's okay, there is some potential, what's the matter, do you want to go behind the scenes and manage the artist?"

Little sister's behind-the-scenes work is undoubted, and it's good for both of them.

After all, it is not very comfortable to watch your daughter-in-law fall in love with other men on the screen. Moreover, the two of them have not been together for three or four months, and the young lady is not very relieved.

But he said: "I'm still thinking about it, I'll slowly see what suits me!"

While speaking, the premiere ceremony has begun, and it is still the old-fashioned creator sharing and reporter group interview, which took about 40 minutes, and then the film viewing session was carried out.

The film "Shadow" is a little innovative in visual effects, but the story is lackluster, mainly because there are too many metaphors, to the point of outrageousness. Using the ubiquitous "profound" to tell you some truths is too straightforward.

At least Lu Lin thinks that a good movie should be like "Journey to the West", when you first watch it, it makes you laugh. Later, when you look at it repeatedly, it brings tears to your eyes.

The movie can't pretend to be profound in order to "explain a truth", in Lu Lin's opinion, this is not interesting.

At the end of the film screening, Lu Lin and Jing Yan left the stage first, and were stopped by reporters without taking a few steps.

"Director Lu, can you tell us how you feel about watching the movie?"

"Well, the visual effects are very good, the picture is very beautiful, if you go to the theater to watch it, it is worth the ticket price!" Lu Lin said in his heart: "It's worth the ticket price!"

The rest of the people asked Jing Yan again, the young lady was a little dazed at first, to be honest, her brain is still dizzy now, more dizzy than when she watched her play "The Great Wall". She doesn't quite understand now why the crane army in the film is attacking like food.

"Well, the film is very good, and it attracts me more than "The Great Wall", but it's a pity that Director Zhang didn't ask me to join!" the young lady said with a smile.

Several reporters interviewed secretly said in their hearts: "Fortunately, I don't have you!"

After leaving the venue and going to the underground parking lot, Miss Jing Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Hey, how do I feel ...... that piece just now!"

"You don't mean it, do you?" Lu Lin asked with a smile.

Jing Yan nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, I usually watch movies very confused, but I actually guessed the end very early just now!"

Lu Lin laughed again, shook his head slightly, and said: "So this movie is not our competitor, and these films in the National Day file are not our opponents." ”

In the Chinese film market, from the beginning of 18 to the middle of 19, in more than a year and a half, there were really few decent films, and there were even fewer hits.

First, people in today's market are impetuous, and there are fewer and fewer filmmakers who are willing to calm down and make a good film. The second is that the movie is tired, almost all of them are old routines that lack new ideas, and the audience is becoming less and less convinced.

Even Lu Lin's films are not as popular as they used to be. "Daughter Country" has not been officially released yet, and there have been many bad reviews first.

A film critic posted a long article, saying that Lu Lin had already exhausted his talents, and like that old monster Xu, now he can only show off special effects, and he can no longer make a shocking film like "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun". And once his new film fails at the box office, the market's long-term "worry" about him will cause a huge panic in the stock market, and the consequences will be unimaginable at that time!
