In the largest screening hall in Wanda, Beijing, the premiere of "Life of Pi" ended, and the audience was silent.

Movies habitually put a list at the end of the credits, what is this point in time for premiere films?

That's what you applaud! That's what you want to applaud! That's what you want to give face!

Otherwise, what are you reporters, film critics, and audiences going to do? You don't pay for tickets! You don't contribute to the box office!

There was no one sitting in the first row, the second row was the crew members, Gan Jing and Ang Lee were sitting together, and this saw that the cast list was put in the last row, but the back was still silent.

Rao is an international director like Ang Lee, and Rao is an international actor like Gan Jing, both of them are stunned.

The 127-minute release version, the last full eight minutes are all about music and a list of actors and crew!

That's eight minutes!

Eight minutes!!

There was no response for eight minutes, it was like throwing a stone into the well without the sound of falling water, the phone called the goddess to confess that there was no movement, and when I went out to walk the dog, I loosened the rope and it jumped out and disappeared!!

Other theaters don't know what it's like when it's played, but the screening room of this premiere actually broadcast the last eight minutes of the film.

There was no applause in the back row, no questions, and it was as if no one was sitting.

Gan Jing's head was dazed, his heart was furious, the first thought was, hit the street, the second thought was, the thief was embarrassed.

"Ahem. ”

Gan Jing coughed lightly, waking up Ang Lee, the two of them looked at each other, and slowly stood up at the same time, ready to walk to the stage to do a media link later.

Who knows, as soon as the two people in the second row moved, the applause behind them was like a long-accumulated flash flood, which was deafening all of a sudden!

Deafening! Deafening!

That guy, the gongs and drums are noisy, the firecrackers are ringing in unison, the red flags are waving, and the crowds are crowded, it is simply the same effect!

Gan Jing felt a little happy when he heard the applause, but after the joy, it was a little empty, the silence in front was too strange, he glanced at Director Ang Lee who was sitting next to him, and while the applause had not stopped, he hurriedly asked: "You invited the person who took the lead in applauding?

Li An glanced at him and muttered, "I didn't invite you." ”

The warm applause drowned out Ang Lee's voice, Gan Jing didn't hear it clearly, and when he wanted to speak again, the host came up, and the applause slowly fell, and everyone's attention was firmly locked on the director and the leading actor.

"Is the movie good?" The host is a professional TV host, not too famous, but the basic hosting skills are definitely more proficient than ordinary people.

The audience replied in unison: "It's good-looking." ”

The general premiere ceremony usually invites celebrities from all walks of life, who can stand up and have a lively scene, but here is according to the meaning of director Ang Lee, just the crew members and the media, film critics, audiences, and the two actresses in Forrest Gump's studio.

Yes, Zhou Dongyu and Chen Xiaojun can now be called actresses, at this moment these two are looking at the stage with bright eyes, their palms are red, like ordinary audiences cheering for the film just now.

Why Is It Silent For So Long?

Why is the applause so unreal?

The first media reporter's question can be regarded as answering some doubts in Gan Jing's heart.

"Forrest Gump, are you satisfied with your performance in the film, and what do your last look and expression represent at the end of the film?"

- Is it because of the last shot? Is that so?

Gan Jing picked up the microphone, the expression on his face was a smile, but the joy in his heart was a little bit overflowing, he glanced at the audience, and said to the reporter who asked the question: "There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers." I won't interpret it myself, so as not to rob the film critic of his job. ”

The next reporter's question still didn't leave the topic, but he praised it before asking: "Forrest Gump, your eyes and smile in the last shot are so perfect, I don't know how to describe it." That's a sublimation of the film's theme. To be honest, according to the Internet, I used to be a passer-by fan, but now I'm your fan. Well, the film is not bad either. Forrest Gump, what do you think this story means to you?"

The reporter balabala said a lot, but it turned out to be polite at the end, and the film was good......

Li An on the side shook his head slightly, he had expected this situation when he decided to use the last lens, he thought that too brilliant would take away attention, and now it was just expected...... Slightly unpleasant.

Gan Jing listened carefully to the whole paragraph, and finally let go of the inevitable worries that had been in the silence for the previous eight minutes, he groaned slightly, and said with a smile: "First of all, thank you for your love of my performance. Secondly, since you are a fan, the report is better written. In the end, this film is the most painstaking film I've ever had since I appeared in the movie. ”

"During the filming, Director Li helped me a lot. For this film to be like this, the special effects company is also very laborious. Well, in fact, until now...... "Gan Jing pointed his right index finger at the position of his temple," some of the character's emotions still echo in my mind. Today the reverberation is even more intense. ”

He showed an unnatural smile slightly, stabilized his mind, and nodded at the reporter who asked the question, indicating that he had finished answering.

The third reporter who was questioned finally did not ask Forrest Gump, but asked Ang Lee, but the question was still relevant: "Director Ang Lee, what do you think about Forrest Gump's performance in the last shot?"

Ang Lee laughed: "I think this shot is enough to be included in the classic shots of the film's history." ”

Ang Lee, an international director and Oscar-winning director, gave such an evaluation, an evaluation that made everyone present giggle at first glance!

A classic shot of the film's history!

There is no modesty at all, every word is shocking!

Gan Jing was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and looked at the director with a serious face, a little wry smile overflowed on his face, this praise is really a bit heavy to carry, and it is really able to steal the show, cough cough.

Sure enough, the atmosphere of the questions became more enthusiastic, and the next questions were about the final scene and Ang Lee's evaluation.

It wasn't until the end of the question session that a reporter finally asked these two about their expectations for the film as if they had come back to their senses.

"What are the box office expectations for this film, and what are the hopes for the Oscars?"

Neither question is new, Gan Jing answered the former, and Ang Lee answered the latter.

- I hope that 600 million in China and 600 million in the world, the numbers are more auspicious, hehe.

- Oscar, win the award.
