Chapter 733 What is the point of waking up if people don't dream

On July 9th, the Xinao store of Hantang International Cinema, a luxury theater in the city center, usually has a lot of visitors, and today because of the premiere of "Mysterious Superstar", the scene is even more lively.

A large number of fans gathered here, and even if they didn't grab tickets for the premiere, they arrived early.

On a short red carpet, the audience who walked around the well-known stars shouted loudly, and the sound of "click" was non-stop.

At half past five in the afternoon, today's protagonist Tang An arrived on time with the crew.

The main protagonist came, and the atmosphere of the scene reached its peak, even if Tang An was not a star, there were many fans at the scene shouting his name.

In addition, it is Xiaodi, who has filmed several popular TV series, which is enough to become the top traffic in this Internet era.

Tang An led the actors on the red carpet and walked in front, greeted the applause, screams, and focus of cameras and cameras from the audience.

Walking across the red carpet, some reporters immediately rushed to surround him.

"Director Tang, the box office of "Transformers 4" has exceeded 1.5 billion, do you think this will be the second film in the domestic film market to break 20 at the box office?

""Mysterious Superstar" is Director Tang's tenth film, are you confident that you will set a new record again?"

"The first two parts of the "Transformers" series were in the same schedule as Director Tang's movies before, and this is the third time I have met, Director Tang, are you confident that you will complete the three kills of "Transformers"?"

""Mystery Superstar" is a comedy movie, this is already Director Tang's sixth theme after horror, spy war, science fiction, reality, and crime themes, plus the military film that is being prepared, Director Tang, do you really want to shoot all the themes again?"

......

The reporter's interview was quite harmonious, after all, it was at home, and they all said hello.

The procedure that should be taken still has to be followed, and Tang An also stopped and accepted an interview with reporters.

Tang An smiled and said, "Eleven years have passed, and I have also made ten movies, and every time the movie is released, it is also the time when I am the happiest, and I have to meet the audience with the results of a year of hard work, and the box office is not the main thing for me, the most important thing is whether the audience is satisfied." ”

Unnutritious nonsense, but there is nothing strange about the reporters, eleven years, with their understanding of Tang An, they all know how Tang An will respond during the interview.

"Then Director Tang thinks that this tenth movie will make a breakthrough at the box office, and do you have the confidence to surpass "Transformers 4" and win the championship of the summer ticket again?"

The reporter asked again about the topic of the two movies, and at present, "Transformers 4" is menacing, and it is very likely to break 2 billion, which is destined to be a battle of chess opponents.

Tang An thought for a while and said, "The industry is developing, and the total box office of the whole year is increasing by about 30% per year, and I believe that the box office of "Mystery Superstar" will also increase compared with last year, but everything has to be handed over to the audience, and the audience has the final decision!"

"What about Transformers 4. ”

"Since the outbreak of the domestic market, in the past ten years, only "Avatar" has won an annual box office champion for non-domestic films, which is an epoch-making film in global film history, in addition, no imported film has won the annual championship, I think this year is no exception, the domestic box office champion will eventually have to be a domestic film!"

After Tang An said this, he walked into the screening hall, leaving behind some helpless reporters.

Tang An's speech became more and more boring, and there was no explosion at all. ”

"Yes, in the past few years, I occasionally said some extreme things, but now I can't hear them. ”

"Even if Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige, and Zhang Yimou are them, they will occasionally lose their temper, and Tang An has almost never changed like this in the past two years. ”

"The box office of "Return" was not good in the first two months, and Zhang Yimou was asked some extreme questions several times, and he almost lost his temper. ”

"The box office is low, it's strange that the mood can be good, before the release, the combination of Zhang Yimou + Gong Li has been hyping and selling feelings, and the operation is as fierce as a tiger, and the box office is more than 200 million. ”

"Recently, I heard that Zhang Yimou is going to make a blockbuster with a Hollywood company and wants to invite Hollywood superstars to star. ”

"Hollywood superstar, it's not the same as "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" invited Bell before, it's useless. ”

"Let's see when the time comes, these big directors of the older generation have been silent for the past two years, and I don't know if they can turn over. ”

......

Tang An walked into the screening hall, and the industry insiders who came to attend the premiere basically came.

"Wang Dong, Yu Dong、... Thank you for your face, I didn't expect everyone to come. ”

Tang An greeted everyone with a smile.

Wang Zhongjun said, "Congratulations on the release of Tang Dong's new film, I'm afraid it's a new record." ”

Wang Changtian said with a smile, "We haven't touched the record of two billion yuan yet, and Tang Dong is about to set a new record." ”

One by one, they all said hello to Tang An with a smile on their faces, this movie has not yet started to be released, as if it has been a success at the box office.

It seems that everyone wants "Mystery Superstar" to be a box office hit, but on the surface, they can't see what they think at all.

Tang An said, "The results haven't come out yet, and maybe I still need your help." ”

Tang An patiently coped with everyone, chatting with laughter.

Around, Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, and Chen Kaige, the three fifth-generation directors are also here, as the three top directors ten years ago, they also began to decline after Tang An's rise, almost five years ago, Tang An began to monopolize the annual champion, and these three stepped down from the altar.

Feng Xiaogang has been busy preparing for the art troupe movie recently, and he also took over the leading role of Guan Hu's new film, and he also took the time to come.

As a well-known director of comedy films, Feng Xiaogang has absolute confidence in this piece, in addition to wanting to see the situation of Tang An's new film, he also has a little comparison.

If you want to talk about other types, Feng Xiaogang is nothing, but this is what he is good at, let's take a look at Tang An's shooting, from the perspective of an "expert", to regain a little sense of superiority.

Zhang Yimou's "Return" was unsuccessful at the box office, and he was already planning a super blockbuster, and the target was naturally Tang An.

Another, Chen Kaige, also has a new film recently, planning to adapt a well-known magic series of Japanese benzene, which costs a lot of money, and is also towards the same goal.

The turning points of their directorial careers were all against Tang An, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2", and "Zhao's Orphan", all of which lost to Tang An's movies.

Three top directors, since then, the box office appeal has not been as good as before.

Now if you really want to count the mainland, Tang An is the only top director, and the others are either slowly stepping down from the altar, or they are still too young and have few influential works.

Tang An personally pulled them off the altar, even if they didn't have such a big obsession with the box office with their achievements, but they didn't want to get back to the field and climb to the top again all the time!

......

At half past six, the premiere ceremony began, and two hosts sent by Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations and movie channels presided over the premiere ceremony.

"Distinguished guests, audience and friends, welcome to ......"

After some opening remarks, he cut directly to the topic, and the host of the movie channel, Tu Wei, asked Tang An curiously.

"Hello Director Tang, in fact, I've been thinking about what the title of "Mysterious Superstar" means, because if you want to be called a superstar, it will have a high popularity, so how can you say it mysteriously?"

Tang An raised the microphone and said with a smile, "Actually, the title of the film is literal, the mysterious superstar, or the hidden superstar, I won't spoil the specifics, everyone will naturally understand after watching the movie." ”

Tu Wei said, "If Director Tang said this, we are even more curious, so why did Director Tang think of making a comedy movie." ”

"To be precise, this is an inspirational comedy, now everyone is under more and more pressure in work and life, walking into the cinema is to relax, watching a comedy is the best choice, so I thought of making a comedy movie, and added positive energy elements, I hope the audience can feel this positive energy, after watching the movie, it not only soothes the mood, but also can be more motivated to face life, face all kinds of difficulties, and actively deal with it. ”

Pouring chicken soup, the scene is not difficult for Tang An, and the premiere ceremony is carried out in an orderly manner.

The program is no different from most movie premieres, where each actor can say a few words, and an hour passes quickly.

At 7:45, the film officially began to be screened.

As the big screen suddenly lit up, the scene slowly fell silent.

The roll ad at the beginning of the film flashed by, and in the silent screening room, a rush of train horns sounded.

On the vast plains, in aerial footage, a train appears in view.

The hillsides and grass on both sides of the railroad tracks are turquoise, the sky is blue, and the long shot shows that the whole world is so vast, so that the audience can not help but relax at a glance.

When the screening officially began, the audience adjusted to a comfortable angle and leaned back in their chairs, ready to enjoy the movie and spend the two hours of fun.

The camera cuts to the inside of the train, where a group of students return from an autumn trip, and the young and lively girls in the carriage are singing the pop song "No Makeup", and the boys are playing card games.

However, the girls sang loudly and disturbed the other passengers in the carriage, but when they saw that it was a few girls, no matter how angry they were, they could only look helpless and reluctant.

By the window, although Xiao Di was applauding, he seemed a little preoccupied, quietly looking out the window and ignoring the laughter around him.

Outside the window was a flock of free birds, flying through the blue sky, and perhaps she was imagining herself to be one of them.

A few simple shots create a very relaxed and cheerful environment at the beginning, but the heroine's thoughts that are about to be written on her face also make the audience look forward to the next plot.

Especially the audience who has watched the trailer, thinking of the fierce father who violently cut the strings and forced Xiaodi to drop the computer, they can't help but worry about the heroine.

Next, Xiao Di's tactful and beautiful tune "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain" also indicates that if you want to see the sunshine, you have to go through wind and rain.

When Peng Yichang came to talk with a shy face, it also made the audience laugh.

"I didn't expect Tang An to really be able to make comedies, and he didn't pile up jokes like other comedies. ”

"yes, I didn't deliberately make some jokes, but it was fun to watch. ”

"However, it is estimated that there will be some abuse in the middle, and the trailer is picking and breaking the strings and smashing the computer. ”

......

Some fans whispered, and sure enough, Xiao Di got off the train and picked her up, and the scars on her mother's face made the audience realize that the heroine's life situation would not be very good.

The scars on Qin Hairu's face made the audience a little worried, but the next plot was still very happy.

A cute younger brother pestering his sister for a gift, Xiao Di's impatience didn't make the audience think about it, after all, only people who don't have younger siblings will feel that children are cute, and most of the families are bear children.

And Qin Hairu next to him took a few candies for his younger brother as a gift, and his younger brother ran away with a smile.

Qin Hairu, who is not pretty, is dressed plainly and more ordinary, but the scars and bruises at the corners of her eyes do not hide her gentle smile.

The family sat at a table eating a meal while watching TV.

The program of the masked singer was playing on TV, and Lei Jiayin, who had a beard and was dressed in salty clothes, mercilessly shattered a little boy's musical dream, and even the female judges who were optimistic about the little boy were also scolded.

"You are an insult to singing, let's go!"

The little boy was scolded and cried, and he threw down his mask and ran away crying.

"I'll go, Lei Jiayin, a greasy middle-aged man, is in place. ”

"Haha, it's too poisonous, even worse than Zhang Ziyi in "I Am an Actor". ”

"Deng Zhiqi couldn't say anything when he was scolded, but why do I feel that Lei Jiayin's appearance is so funny. ”

Lei Jiayin's appearance once again made the audience almost laugh out loud, whether it was his appearance or fierce words, he was so happy.

Then there was a news report on TV, Lei Jiayin was in a divorce relationship recently, coupled with the news host's words, the image of a lustful and greasy man jumped out.

At the next music awards ceremony, the image of this character was deepened, kissing the camera several times in a row, and unashamedly saying that he had won the award, and specially called the organizing committee to not award the award to himself.

And then he had a conversation with his award-winning students, which was even more enjoyable.

"I heard that you've been busy scaring the kids lately, how is the divorce going. ”

"Why are you pointing fingers at me!"

"I won the award tonight, the winner has the right to speak, why do you speak, have you won the award. ”

"I trained you!"

On TV, the two fought at the awards ceremony, and Xiaodi and her mother also talked about the city's campus singer Grand Prix.

Mother Qin Hairu was also willing to let Xiaodi pursue her dreams, and proposed to ask when her father came back for dinner.

Xiaodi rubbed some medicine on the bruises in the corners of her mother's eyes, although this scene between mother and daughter was simple, but it was very warm.

The whole family slept, and then Fu Dalong's father returned, and the house was pitch black, and Fu Dalong turned on the light.

Suddenly, the lights turned on, and what greeted the audience was Fu Dalong's gloomy face.

From the moment the light was turned on, seeing Fu Dalong's expression, the audience's good mood suddenly disappeared.

The trailer and the current image of the character all show that this character will not be very good.

In the bedroom, Xiao Di was woken up, walked out with a flyer for the campus singer Grand Prix, and looked at it again and again.

"Go pour a glass of water!"

Fu Dalong's order made Xiao Di slightly startled, and immediately went to pour water.

Qin Hairu got up and heated the meal, and Xiaodi took advantage of Fu Dalong's meal to propose to participate in the Campus Singer Grand Prix.

However, due to the fear of his father, he hesitated several times and did not speak.

Just plucked up the courage to speak, Fu Dalong slapped his chopsticks on the table heavily, startling Xiao Di.

"I don't put salt in cooking, I don't taste at all, I come back from a busy day, can't I even eat a good meal!"

Fu Dalong did not change color, and even his expression was relatively calm, but that look was really frightening, so shocked that Xiao Di next to him, who just wanted to speak, couldn't speak, and couldn't help but lower his head and hold the paper tightly with both hands.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, as if it had suddenly turned into a suspense film, and the facial expressions and eyes were displayed in detail on the big screen, and the audience at the scene could feel the chill in Fu Dalong's eyes across the screen.

TV drama performances rely on body language and exaggerated facial expressions, which are enough to do both, while most of the performances in movies are on the eyes.

The eyes are the only part that allows the audience to gain insight into the inner activities of the characters, not to mention that on the big screen, the characters in it are taller than real people, and most of the time the first thing they see is the eyes.

Even Zhou Xingchi, who is famous for his funny actions and lines, the drama in his eyes is not inferior to any actor.

Fu Dalong is a simple expression, with a calm face, full of chill and indifferent eyes, which perfectly expresses this character.

Then, because of the wrong time of the business trip, Fu Dalong's emotions broke out for the first time, and he took off the dishes and chopsticks in Qin Hairu's hand and shattered them to the ground.

"I'm going, it's a little scary, are you sure this isn't a horror movie?"

"Fu Dalong's acting skills are so good, I shudder when I see it. ”

"Qin Hairu is so pitiful, a wicked domestic violence. ”

It seems that Xiaodi's music dream is not so easy. ”

Audiences who have read countless films, they can guess the general plot of the back after watching a film, and it is easy to guess that the character of Fu Dalong will be in a huge trouble.

The screening continued, the mother and daughter were talking in the room, Xiaodi may have just seen Lei Jiayin and his wife divorced on TV, and he was also persuading his mother to divorce.

Qin Hairu said with some amusement and sadness, "Then who will feed us." ”

Xiao Di said, "I'll raise it!"

After all, she is still a child, Xiaodi wants Qin Hairu to agree, as long as she thinks of a way, she will leave her father, Qin Hairu also casually agreed to come down and coax her to sleep.

After that, Xiaodi was thinking about participating in the competition every day, and was scolded by the teacher in class.

However, after returning home, Qin Hairu prepared a gift for her, sold the necklace she wore when she got married, and bought a laptop.

The whole family was amazed by the strangeness of the Internet, laughed at the videos on the Internet, and watched the novelties on the computer day and night until they fell asleep.

Then I was awakened by the automatic music video on the Internet, and watched the video on the Internet being liked by many people browsing and commenting, Xiaodi had an idea in his heart and was ready to record a singing video and post it on the Internet.

Suddenly remembered what expression became frustrated, once the father found out, it was over.

Mom came to persuade her to sleep and stop dreaming.

Xiao Di, who has a somewhat grumpy personality, said: "You let me sleep, but don't let me dream, this sentence is contradictory, if people don't dream, what's the point of waking up? Woowoo......
