When Lu Lin said this, the reporters were very surprised, but they could instantly understand the intention of Longlin Pictures.

The feature film was released at the premiere, which can ferment word-of-mouth in advance, but it can also attract attacks in advance.

Unlike Longlin Pictures' previous works, "Havoc in Heaven" is an adapted classic, and the audience will inevitably compare it with other versions.

No matter how good your special effects are and how good the plot is, I just say that there is no 86 version of the classic, can you kill me?

There are too many benchmarks for remakes that can be compared, and each scale can be very different.

With the 86 version as the standard, "Journey to the West" is too subversive, and "Journey to the West" is too dark. But if you take the original book as the standard, the 86 version has actually changed a lot.

For example, Sun Wukong's appearance, described in the original book, hairy face and thunder mouth, short stature, and the appearance of one meter three or four, scare children every minute.

The adaptation of the 86 version in this piece is successful, but filming the Jade Emperor into a diamond table is seriously smearing and misleading.

So the 86 version of the classic is not fake, but it is a bit funny to use it as a standard to criticize other works.

At the press conference, the reporters were only slightly stunned for a while, and someone immediately asked: "Hello Director Lu, is it because you have no confidence in the quality and are afraid that word-of-mouth will affect the box office?"

"This version of "Havoc in Heaven", the content of the film definitely surpasses all previous versions, and the reason why the pre-release viewing link was canceled is to retain a trace of freshness......

Lu Lin only explained once, and when someone asked in the future, he didn't answer this question anymore.

After that, the rest of the main creators came to the stage for an interview, saying some interesting things during the shooting, and then the filmmaker put a trailer of less than a minute, which is an image clip of many immortals in the film, including the heroic and handsome Erlang God, the burly and tall giant spirit god, and the expressionless Uncle Ge version of Tai Bai Xing.

Although there are no fight scenes, the characters in the film alone make reporters feel that they should be very good.

The trailer press conference ended, and the reporters left in a hurry. left together, and there were many fans on the surface, but in fact, other companies sent people to inquire about the news, and soon passed back the news that "Havoc in Heaven" would not play the feature film until it was released.

This has made many bosses of film and television companies realize that now is the perfect opportunity to attack Longlin Pictures and Lu Lin!

Longlin Pictures, on its part, also made an "online marketing budget" early, and it must not be allowed to be smeared by other companies.

But just when many people were "sharpening their knives" and preparing to let Lu Lin defeat Maicheng, a famous director was defeated in advance during the Chinese New Year at the end of 2017, and it was the famous Xu Laowei.

He cooperated with Yuan Heping to make a "Qimen Dunjia", which was set for December 14 in another time and space. Because "Havoc in Heaven" chose the 15th, the producer Fang Leshi Pictures studied it repeatedly for a while, and finally set the release time on December 8, Friday.

Before the release, the publicity was very lively. Xu Laowei, who plays the most slippery special effects, Yuan Heping, the world's first martial artist, Zhou Dongyu, the Golden Horse actress, and Ni Ni, the girl Mou, etc., all make the film very popular.

It's a pity that it was released on the 8th, and the word-of-mouth collapsed in one day, with a compass score of 4.2, which is lower than that of another time and space. Countless netizens abused in various places, thinking that this was the work of Xu Laowei when he drank too much, which once again aroused the audience's criticism and regret for the older generation of directors in Xiangjiang.

Wu Baige, who filmed "The True Color of Heroes", filmed "Pursuit"; Xu Ke, who filmed "Dragon Gate Inn" and "Huang Feihong", made "Qimen Dunjia" and "The Sword of the Third Young Master", not to mention Liu Zhenwei, who constantly squeezed the residual value of "Journey to the West".

The unexpected loss of "Qimen Dunjia" made many people not optimistic about this year's Chinese New Year. Because in addition to Lu Lin's "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", Chen Kaige, who filmed "The Legend of the Demon Cat", has been losing his hands and has never reached the peak. Brother Cheng Long, who starred in "Blood of the Machine", has also been getting worse in the past two years. Not to mention Feng Xiaogang, who has passed the peak, not to mention the escape of a "Fanghua", and the New Year file does not dare to be set on a popular date, but he actually escaped to January 18, which is really old!

In the entire Chinese New Year file, the only one that is still expected and optimistic by most viewers is "Havoc in Heaven".

Because there was no grand premiere this time, I couldn't watch the film in advance, but the result was that the box office at zero o'clock on the day of the release was sold out, and the pre-sale at zero o'clock alone exceeded 50 million, and too many people wanted to have a sneak peek.

In the blink of an eye, by the evening of December 14, the box office of the zero point field sold exceeded 60 million, which made countless people in the industry frightened. Those who are anxious to know the actual content of "Havoc in Heaven" even sent employees to watch the movie on the spot to understand the situation.

Lu Lin was also a little uneasy here, after all, he didn't know if the audience recognized this version of Monkey King, so he wanted to go to the theater to take a look. Coincidentally, in the afternoon, Fat Di sent him a WeChat message, wanting to watch the zero o'clock scene of "Havoc in Heaven", and asked Lu Lin if he had time.

It is said that Jing Yan is still filming in the crew of "Daughter Country" at this moment, and he is really a little moved by Fat Di's proposal. I took my mobile phone and looked at the WeChat repeatedly, hesitated several times, and finally replied, okay!

Because he was afraid of being secretly photographed by the paparazzi, Lu Lin didn't have dinner with Fat Di, and the theater only chose a slightly remote location in the capital, which is not particularly crowded. You can look at the seat selection display on the ticketing app, and the attendance rate is also more than 80%.

After getting off work in the evening, Lu Lin's pioneer car drove from the company to the business district, parked the car and walked around, and entered an apartment in the downtown area under the cover of the crowd. After resting here for a while, I changed my clothes and drove an inconspicuous B-class car downstairs to the theater in the western suburbs of Beijing. Fat Di waited there early, until Lu Lin knocked on her car window outside.

"Don't worry, I was careful when I went out, I went around many times on the road, and no one would find out!" Seeing Lu Lin getting into the car, Fat Di hurriedly explained.

The latter thought in his heart, "Why do you feel like that!" Although he didn't feel sorry, he didn't do anything to be sorry for Jing Yan. But watching the zero point field with a beautiful girl in the middle of the night is not so fair and honest after all.

"That's good, let's sit in the car for a while, and then go in when the show is about to start!" Lu Lin said.

Fat Di hummed, and said secretly in his heart: "Actually, we can watch it together in the company's screening room, or somewhere else." ”

However, she also knew that Lu Lin came to watch the zero point show, mainly to see the audience's reaction, so she didn't mention it, but said with a smile: "I watched the pre-sale again just now, our one is almost full, and there are people everywhere!"
