The 277th Episode A relaxing premiere
After June, the box office of "The Founding of the Nation" has been declining, proving that it is never the critics and the media that ultimately determine the direction of the market, but the audience.
Until June 25, that is, the day before the release of "Journey to the West".
"The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", a "miracle main theme movie" that received a box office of 420 million within eight days of its release, had a total box office of only 480 million at this time.
In other words, in 4 days, the film only increased by more than 60 million at the box office. According to this trend of declining box office, the box office of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" was only 600 million at most before its release.
Wanting to break the box office record of "Full of Gold" has obviously become delusional.
On the contrary, it is the Hollywood movie "Devil Terminator 2018", although the plot of the movie is very mediocre, and there is not much investment in the promotion of China.
But relying on the movie's top-notch visual effects and the presence of Hollywood stars at the premiere, there have been easter eggs related to China in the movie.
6 days after its release, it achieved an astonishing box office result of 380 million.
You must know that this movie is just a "cannon fodder" sent by Hollywood studios to fight the front station.
After the release of real Hollywood blockbusters such as "Transformers 2" and "Harry Potter", will Chinese domestic films still be able to resist the offensive of Hollywood movies?
At this time, every Chinese filmmaker is currently the most concerned issue.
Now "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" is obviously unable to undertake this heavy responsibility, and "Journey to the West", which will be released tomorrow, has become the last "line of defense" for Chinese films.
……
At 7 p.m. on June 26, the scorching heat of midsummer in Kyoto had not completely dissipated.
The entrance of Kyoto Shenghui Cinema is crowded with audiences who come to watch "Journey to the West".
Although Huimin Film and Television Group will hold a super grand premiere in Gongti, where the stars are shining, and more than half of the well-known figures in China will be present.
But apparently Peng Yichen and Yu Jing didn't choose to go there, they still prefer the feeling of watching movies with the audience in the theater.
Therefore, in the end, the crew of "Journey to the West" was divided into two groups, and one group stayed in the Gongti to attend the premiere.
Peng Yichen and Yu Jing watched the premiere of "Journey to the West" with fans in Shenghui Cinema in a very low-key manner.
Here, there are no red carpet ceremonies, and there are no interviews.
Chen Jing Film Company has arranged seven movie theaters in seven cities, including Kyoto, Shanghai, Chongqing, Changsha, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Xiangjiang, inviting Peng Yichen and Yu Jing's friends and their families, as well as loyal fans of Peng Yichen and Yu Jing from all over the world, to watch "Journey to the West".
Each person was also given a bottle of drink and popcorn.
Peng Yichen and Yu Jing's friends in the circle usually participate in too many movie-related activities, and they are already very tired.
The leisure method that Peng Yichen provided them with purely watching movies was very popular with them.
There are no false and unashamed socials and interviews, and the most important thing is that you can bring your family to watch a movie together.
The media who knew about this incident also sent reporters to shoot Zhao Jianguo, Chen Guozhong, Zhang Xingping, Chen Daoming, Zhang Guorong, Mei Yanfang, Andy Lau, Zeng Zhiwei and other stars walking into the theater with their families to watch "Journey to the West" outside the theaters in these seven cities.
With Peng Yichen's popularity and status in the circle now, it is very normal for several celebrities to cheer.
But to the reporter's great surprise, they also saw two well-known Chinese father and son appearing at the door of the theater where "Journey to the West" was released.
The first father and son were Ma Yun and his son.
The family of the first person in the e-commerce industry in China has always been very low-key.
This is the first time that he has been photographed watching a movie with his son.
The second father and son are Wang Tianlin, chairman of Shengda Real Estate Group, and his son Wang Scallion.
The father and son are much more high-profile than Ma Yun's father and son, but it is very rare to see the two of them appear in the same event at the same time.
Unexpectedly, today they accepted Peng Yichen's invitation to watch the premiere of "Journey to the West" in the cinema.
may be because the two premieres held before "The Founding of the Nation" and "Terminator of the Devil 2018" have made the audience tired of this kind of super-large-scale premiere.
Fans on the Internet are not very interested in the premiere of "Journey to the West" in Gongti.
On the contrary, if any fan can get the invitation letters of Peng Yichen and Yu Jing and participate in his private event to invite everyone to watch the movie, it will be the most enviable for other fans.
Of course, Peng Yichen at this time does not pay attention to the opinions of netizens.
He just brought Yu Jing, his mother, and Huang Bo and his girlfriend, and sat in the theater of Shenghui Cinema with a smile and prepared to watch the premiere of "Journey to the West".
Also sitting in the same row with him are Zhou Xingchi, Zhou Yunfa and Fa Sister-in-law, who recently participated in activities in Kyoto, and Director Chen Guozhong and his wife, Dou Wentao.
Behind him are several young actors signed by Chen Jing Film Company in the past two years, and then there are fans of Peng Yichen and Yu Jing.
It was eight o'clock. The movie is about to begin.
In the 500-seat theater, the lights gradually went out, and the people sitting in the theater quieted down.
At the beginning of the film, the public screening license of radio and television, the opening animation of Huimin Film and Television Group, and the moonlight animation of the lotus pond of Chen Jing Film Company were successively played.
The first picture of the movie shocked all the audience.
The three characters of Sun Wukong, Tang Sanzang, and Guanyin, who appeared first, suddenly peaked everyone's traditional understanding of "Journey to the West".
I saw that on the big screen, Guanyin said angrily to Sun Wukong: "Sun Wukong, you beast, you originally promised the Buddha to escort your master Tang Sanzang to get the Western Scriptures, but you actually colluded with the Bull Demon King to eat your master, do you know that you have committed a mortal crime?"
Sun Wukong said angrily: "Don't be wordy! You chased me for three days and three nights." I won't kill you because you're a woman, don't think I'm afraid of you!"
Tang Sanzang blamed: "Wukong, how can you talk to Sister Guanyin like this?"
Wukong was angry: "Wow! Don't make a noise!"
Tang Sanzang said aggrievedly: "You are scaring me again!"
Guanyin said: "Aren't you afraid of me, why did you hurt Fairy Zixia and snatch her moonlight treasure box?
Wukong resolutely said: "Since you can't hide, then Lao Sun will fight you to the death!"
I saw Sun Wukong throw the moonlight treasure box casually and smashed it on Tang Sanzang's head.
Tang Sanzang said innocently: "What are you doing?"
Sun Wukong was about to make a move, but was interrupted by Tang Sanzang, "Hey, hey, hey, don't be angry, if you are angry, you will be angry." Wukong, you're too naughty, I told you not to throw things. Why are you ...... again?"
Sun Wukong was dumbfounded, and the golden hoop stick fell off.
"Look, before I finished speaking, you threw away the stick! The moonlight treasure box is a treasure, and if you throw it away, it will pollute the environment, what if you hit a child, even if you can't hit a child. It's not right to hit the flowers and plants!"
Goku grabbed the moonlight treasure box in his hand.
Tang Sanzang asked, "What for?"
Wukong glared angrily: "Let go!"
Tang Sanzang said with a pleasant face: "Do you want it? Wukong, you can speak if you want." How do you tell me what you want, even though you look at me with sincerity, you still have to tell me what you want. Do you really want it? Then you take it, don't you really want it, do you really want it?......
Wukong couldn't stand it and said, "I'm kao!"
One punch knocked Tang Sanzang down.
Guanyin was shocked: "Ah? Sun Wukong!?"
"Everyone, you see? This guy is okay and talks at length about his mother-in-law and mother-in-law, like a fly all day long, buzzing ...... I'm sorry. It's not one, it's a bunch of flies around you, buzz... Airplanes... Airplanes... Airplanes... Fly inside your ears. Help, help!"
Wukong fell to the ground and rolled over, holding his head in great pain, and suddenly he stood up with a carp and complained: "So, I grabbed the fly and squeezed its belly, pulled out its intestines, and then strangled its neck with its intestines and pulled it hard, and ——!the whole tongue was sticking out——!! Now everyone understands, why, I'm going to kill him!"
Guanyin snorted angrily: "Hmph, Wukong, you have many excuses, you don't want to take the Western Scripture at all!"
Wukong laughed and said, "What are you doing so much, fight!"
Then watching the movie, he staged a fierce battle with Sun Wukong.
……
In Peng Yichen's previous life, in "Journey to the West" filmed by Liu Zhenwei, the picture of this section of the fighting method was very rough and simple, so that people could not see that it was a fairy and demon fighting method at all, but it was a bit like a child fighting.
Of course, Peng Yichen would not allow such scenes to appear in his films.
Because the computer special effects technicians of the Digital Technology Center have carried out special special effects design and shooting guidance with the team since the filming of "Journey to the West" started.
Therefore, when "Journey to the West" was in post-production, the special effects production staff easily added a large number of the most advanced CGI special effects renderings to this footage of Monkey King and Guanyin's fighting.
Very realistically, Sun Wukong's somersault cloud, law phase heaven and earth, seventy-two changes and other supernatural powers are all displayed on the big screen.
Every time the Monkey King in the movie uses a spell, it can make the audience in the theater feel immersive and realistic.
Many fans even have the feeling that they are watching Hollywood blockbusters, and it is not more enjoyable than watching Hollywood blockbusters.
After all, it is no longer foreign gods and demons who are in the sky and on the screen now, but mythical characters belonging to Huaxia.
The constant appearance of immortal and demon fighting scenes on the big screen made the audience's adrenaline continue to rise, and the entire theater was filled with the sound of fans gasping when they were surprised.
It wasn't until Sun Wukong was finally included in the jade net bottle that the audience's mood calmed down a little.
