Chapter 1070: Screening (Medium)

The phenomenon of movie tickets sold out on the night of the premiere of "Red Cliffs of the Three Kingdoms" has long been expected by everyone, and they are not too surprised.

"The Legend of the Snow Fox", which premiered yesterday, could not catch up with "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" in terms of the appeal of the cast or publicity, and the attendance rate of the four shows last night was also very high.

"The Legend of the Snow Fox in Liaozhai" can attract fans to buy tickets and enter the theater so much, not to mention "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms".

"I want to buy 2 tickets for "Red Cliff" at 8 o'clock. ”

"I'm sorry, sir, the tickets for "Red Cliffs of the Three Kingdoms" at 8 o'clock have been sold out. ”

"Then two 9's!"

"I'm sorry, sir, but it's no longer at 9 o'clock. ”

"Really, what's the last time?"

"I'm sorry, sir, all the movie tickets for tonight's "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" have been sold out. ”.

A spectator who was about to buy a ticket to enter the stadium was completely dumbfounded when he heard the words of the staff at the ticket office, he really didn't expect that he hurriedly ran over to buy a ticket, but he didn't buy a ticket.

Not only did he have no tickets for the shows he wanted, but there were no tickets for all of the shows tonight.

"Wouldn't it? Tickets for "Red Cliff" were sold out too quickly, right?"

This audience, who didn't buy movie tickets, stood aside a little stunned and muttered.

There happened to be a young man standing beside him, and when he heard his words, he couldn't help laughing, and said: "Uncle, you only want to buy tickets now? Don't think about it, don't talk about this theater, you don't want to buy movie tickets for "Red Cliff" in other theaters in our city tonight, it is estimated that if you want to buy it, you can only buy tickets for tomorrow. ”

After saying this, the young man also raised the two movie tickets in his hand with a show of affection.

When the middle-aged fan heard the young man's words, he was stunned, and then said a little incredulously: "Impossible, right? Tonight, all the theaters in our city can't buy tickets for all the nights of "Red Cliff"? How did you buy this ticket?"

His eyes were full of disbelief, staring at the young man, and he didn't believe what the other party said.

What are you kidding, if he can't buy a movie ticket for a movie, he still believes it, but to say that in all the movie theaters in a city, he can't buy a movie ticket for all the shows of a movie, then he can't believe it, and it's too unbelievable.

It seems that in his memory, this situation never seemed to have occurred.

The young man couldn't help but sigh when he saw that the middle-aged fans didn't believe it, then took out his mobile phone, clicked on the Maoyan movie, and said: "Uncle, I'm really not lying to you, you see that my mobile phone, a software that can buy tickets online, has shown that all the movie tickets for all the performances of "Red Cliff" tonight have been sold out, and other theaters are also the same. ”

"Did you buy your movie tickets from this software?" middle-aged movie fans have heard of Maoyan Movies, a software that can buy tickets online, but he didn't get it because he was troublesome, so he didn't expect to encounter the problem of not being able to buy movie tickets this time.

"That's right!" the young man nodded, "It's very convenient to buy tickets with Maoyan movies, although it is five yuan more expensive to choose a seat than a group purchase, if you are not busy, you can buy tickets in a group and then choose a seat, but it is too busy, it is five dollars more expensive, directly choose a seat, and then go to the theater to get a ticket by yourself, it is still very convenient." ”

After saying this, the young man also deliberately pointed to a place where many people gathered: "Look, that is the ticket machine of Maoyan Movie, and there is no need to queue up to buy tickets at all." ”

The middle-aged movie fan followed the young man's fingers and saw a lot of people surrounding a machine that looked like a game console, and then saw a person take out his mobile phone and look at it, press it a few times on it, and spit out two movie tickets from the exit below.

The popularity of the premiere day of "Red Cliffs of the Three Kingdoms" was expected by everyone, and the full attendance was also expected by everyone.

After all, with the all-star cast of the movie, coupled with the influence of the Three Kingdoms culture in the hearts of the people, it is not difficult to do this.

But like this, the theater is full, even if all the movie tickets for this show at 10 o'clock in the evening are still sold out, and it is a bit surprising that it is difficult to find a ticket, but it is still expected by everyone, because this situation has already been shown to be popular through online ticket sales on Meituan and Maoyan Movie.

However, for some people, because "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" is too popular, many fans did not buy tickets in the first time, and then saw that others had already selected seats and bought tickets through the Internet, and began to learn to download Meituan or Maoyan movies and try to buy tickets online, which was unexpected by everyone.

The fact that countless new users of Meituan and Maoyan Movies will be added tonight did not attract everyone's attention in the first place.

Their attention is still immersed in the plot of the movie.

When Zhuge Liang played by Yang Chaowei appeared, it once again attracted countless exclamations!

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms", one of the four famous novels in China, is undoubtedly Zhuge Liang, and there is no one.

Or Luo Guanzhong, the author of this famous book, was originally a fan of Zhuge Liang.

Three visits to the thatched house, grass boats borrowing arrows, empty city plans, seven captures of Meng Shu, etc., there are too many legends about Zhuge Liang.

The face is like a crown of jade, wearing a scarf, holding a feather fan, plain clothes and soap, talking and laughing freely.

With Luo Guanzhong, the number one fan, Zhuge Liang's image in the minds of countless people is absolutely perfect.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang left "do your best and die." He has become a representative of loyal ministers in Chinese culture and has been worshiped by countless Confucian scholars.

As an actor superstar, Yang Chaowei's appearance is not bad, his face is like jade, and he is suave, it is not an exaggeration to say it, but he can have such a high status in the film industry today, but he did not rely on his appearance to take shortcuts, he is a super-first-class actor.

In terms of acting skills, the actors who dare to surpass Yang Chaowei are definitely no more than 10 people in the film industry.

Therefore, when countless viewers saw Zhuge Liang played by Yang Chaowei, the first impression in their minds was that this was not Yang Chaowei, but Zhuge Liang, who was really almost a demon.

Yang Ming saw the reactions of the people around him in his seat, and nodded in his heart.

To be honest, let Yang Chaowei play Zhuge Liang, he is still a little apprehensive in his heart, according to the original version of "Red Cliff" by Lao Wu in his previous life, Yang Chaowei should play Zhou Yu, and he will play Zhuge Liang.

But he thought about it seriously and gave up the idea.

First, he didn't want Su Su to play husband and wife with others, and second, the image of Zhuge Liang in Lao Wu's part in his previous life was indeed too impetuous.

The original version of "Red Cliff" was played by the handsome guy Jin, to be honest, there was no fault with the appearance of the handsome guy Kim, but his acting skills were really bad, especially when playing against the electric eye Liang Yingdi, which was basically pressed by Liang Yingdi.

In the previous life, anyone who watched Lao Wu's version of "Red Cliff" would regard Liang Da as the first actor, while Zhuge Liang was placed on the male number three or male number four, and there was no male number two.

The second male number is Zhang Fengyi's Cao Cao.

Zhang Fengyi vividly interpreted Cao Cao's heroic temperament, if it weren't for the performance of Liang Da Actor, even Zhang Fengyi could become the male number one.

Perhaps in history, Cao Cao is definitely the undisputed hero.

But in the movie, apparently it can't be.

But Zhang Fengyi relied on his excellent acting skills to let Cao Cao suppress Zhuge Liang, which has to be said to be a regret in the hearts of countless fans of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang portrayed by the handsome guy Jin is too weak.

In the whole movie, except for being handsome and cool, with a paralyzed smile on the face, there is basically nothing worth making people feel eye-catching.

If it weren't for the fact that the character of Zhuge Liang was destined to be the main character, Zhuge Liang played by Jin Da Handsome would really be a supporting role.

Even in Yang Ming's heart, Sun Quan played by Zhang Zhen has more highlights than the handsome guy Jin.

However, in this world, with Yang Chaowei to play Zhuge Liang, there will definitely not be a handsome Jin version of Zhuge Liang, only his form, but not his god.

In the corner of the auditorium.

Old Man Meng looked at the screen and wrote blindly in his notebook: The war scenes are spectacular, magnificent and cruel, Yang Chaowei is very good!

And at the end of this sentence, he hit a few more five-pointed stars, obviously he was very satisfied with Zhuge Liang played by Yang Chaowei.

In fact, Mr. Meng didn't know that Yang Ming spent a lot of thought on the shooting of the war scenes in the picture, and in order to be able to combine the martial arts design in the movie with the ancient war, he racked his brains and consulted many historical experts.

The battlefield scenes in the movie, especially the picture of Cao Liu's battle, he didn't learn the trick of the Five Elements Flag against the Five Elements Flag in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" like in the original version of his previous life, and used the shield to reflect the sun, which is too unscientific.

To be honest, this scene in the original version of the previous life is good-looking, but it has attracted countless complaints from fans.

There is no way, this picture in Xu Laowei's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" is so impressive that after Lao Wu appropriated it to "Red Cliff", it was sprayed by countless fans and experts.

With the productive forces and scientific conditions of the Three Kingdoms at that time, it was simply impossible to make such a smooth shield, and if it was a mirror, it would be even more impossible.

Besides, with Liu Bei's situation at the time, it was impossible to have this kind of equipment.

It's good-looking, but Yang Ming doesn't want to use it, especially when this movie is released worldwide, with fans in Europe and the United States pursuing reasonable urine, they will definitely not tolerate this kind of plot without any logic, think about it, it is obviously too unbelievable that equipment like a mirror will appear in two thousand years.

Therefore, Yang Ming gave up this idea.

Since he can't make war scenes as fantasy like in his previous life, Yang Ming still strives for perfection in war scenes, and he wants to make the war scenes in this movie a benchmark for local film circles to make ancient war-themed movies.

In the previous life, the budget and manpower problems of the limited crew, although the so-called big war in the original version, although it seemed that there were a lot of people, compared to the film production at that time, it was already an epic scale, but Yang Ming felt that it was still not enough.

For this reason, he deliberately greeted the Ministry of Defense through Minister Guo, mobilized the army to shoot, and a division to cooperate with the filming of "Red Cliffs of the Three Kingdoms", so as to shoot the spectacular scene of thousands of horses galloping and fighting on the battlefield in the picture.

Of course, the company also paid a big price for this.

The cost of costumes and props alone has increased by 20 million yuan, not counting the subsidies for the military.

Although it is impossible for the military to ask the company for money because of the above arrangement, but in this regard, Yang Ming cannot treat the military badly, he asked people to spend 10 million yuan to buy a large number of materials and daily necessities to give to this division, the military's goodwill to Yang Ming, naturally will not refuse, and the relationship with Yang Ming has become more and more intimate.

An order is an order, but the other side is so good at behaving, and the military does not object.

Yang Ming is not wronged, as a film company, war movies are definitely indispensable, and he will definitely deal with the army often in the future, and now that he can have a good relationship, of course he will not give up this opportunity.

It is precisely because of the cooperation of the army's huge manpower that there is now an epic war that shocks countless people on the screen.

Maybe ordinary movie fans and audiences can't see it, but those professionals in the film industry can see at a glance that the pictures in the movie are not made by special effects or tricks, but there are really so many people.

Thinking of this, countless filmmakers trembled in their hearts, this is really a big deal!

Maybe so much manpower is enough for them to start shooting a movie, this Yang Ming is really a madman, I didn't expect him to really use so much manpower and material resources to shoot these war scenes in order to be closer to reality.

It's crazy.

Many filmmakers are frightened by Yang Ming's idea, what kind of movie is this, it's just burning money, crazy burning money, no wonder the production cost of this movie is called 1 billion Chinese yuan, they didn't believe it at first, but now seeing the scenes in the movie, they gradually believe in the previous propaganda, don't say 1 billion, even if it is 1.5 billion, they believe it.

Yang Ming's ability to burn money is as crazy as his talent.

As the plot of the movie progressed, just when everyone felt Yang Ming's generosity, Zhou Yu played by Yang Ming appeared.

Seeing this, everyone's spirits were shocked, especially those filmmakers, they all wanted to see if Yang Ming could play against Yang Chaowei and those actors, if there can be failures in this movie, then Zhou Yu played by Yang Ming is the biggest possibility.

Whether it is the rivalry with Yang Chaowei or the brilliance of other actors, what kind of performance Yang Ming can have, this is what other people are most curious about now.

After all, Yang Ming is too young.

Today, Sunday, most of Yanjing's companies have a holiday, but some companies still work overtime.

In the building where Zhonghuang Entertainment is located, the lights of many departments are still on, because the boss has not left at this time.

Bai Chongshi lit a cigarette, looked out the window aimlessly, and then swept his eyes over the phone from time to time, he seemed to be waiting for news.

Suddenly, his cell phone rang.

His eyes shrunk, he gently puffed out a puff of cigarette and picked up his phone.

"Mr. Bai, according to the news I inquired, the attendance rate of "Liao Zhai" tonight has dropped rapidly, and it is less than half, and the "Three Kingdoms" side is basically full, I heard that all theaters in East Asia tonight have sold out movie tickets for "Three Kingdoms". ”

Speaking of this, the voice on the mobile phone seemed to pause, and then said: "I got the news that the theater chain may consider reducing the scheduling rate of "Liao Zhai" to make room for "Three Kingdoms", because this movie is too popular, and the attendance rate of "Liao Zhai" has also dropped too fast. ”

When Bai Chongshi heard this, the cigarette in his hand was quietly pinched off.
