Chapter 853: The Audience's Choice
Mu Zixin, who left while talking, didn't notice that the person who walked past him wearing a mask was Cheng Long. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Shaolin Woodman Alley" was also released on the National Day, as this collection of Cheng Long's high popularity, as well as the popular elements of martial arts of "Shaolin authenticity", Luo Wei is very confident.
Cheng Long really wanted to tell him that every drama he had filmed before, he himself felt that it was full of best-selling elements, and every time he felt that it would be a box office hit, but every time it was just a meaningless follow-up work.
Watching the audience's response in the economic center of the rabbit's nest in the magic capital is very valuable for market reaction, and many directors will do this when their works are released.
Cheng Long was very irritable at the beginning, because he knew what he was filming, compared to "Drunken Fist", it was not a little bit of a gap.
Luo Wei was very happy at first, because there were indeed a lot of audiences, almost full, and the high prestige and box office appeal that "Drunken Fist" brought to Cheng Long far exceeded his imagination.
However, as the movie progressed, some children who came with their fathers even fell asleep directly, and some fans with poor patience were even in the theater, angrily scolding the ticket money for being unjust, which is simply a deceptive thing.
Luo Wei doesn't care about this, according to him, as long as the popularity and appearance rate are guaranteed, the movie can sell well in a scolding, which is something that the market has long proven.
Cheng Long doesn't think so, after being in contact with Lin Mu for a long time, he agrees more and more with Lin Mu's ideas, and has always despised this kind of director and movie that cheats money.
Like the famous Guo Siniang in China, when he made bad movies to make money, he was proud, boasted of success, and lived a glorious life, but once the audience really reacted and stopped paying for this kind of garbage, people like him could only cry and kneel down to beg everyone for forgiveness, wanting to play the sad card to cheat money and save his reputation.
……
"What a garbage thing! It turned out that Cheng Long acted so well, and I thought that the gospel for our kung fu lovers was coming, and finally there was another action movie actor who could be as good as a page of a book, how could I have thought that it would cost a lot of money to see such boring things and such old-school martial arts methods, and I was embarrassed to see it!"
"That's it! Looking at the action design, I thought that if I let a page of the book come over, I could kick a few to death, Cheng Long is really poisonous this time, I used to fan him, and I don't want to support him anymore in the future......"
"No, I heard that Cheng Long was asked to go back by Xingyi, didn't you see that this "Shaolin Woodman Alley" is not an icon of 'one-page film and television'?
The scolding in his ears was like an ear on Cheng Long's face, looking at the reflection of the glass of the container next to him, and looking at his sluggish expression, he suddenly blocked his face with both hands, and he was so aggrieved that he wanted to cry.
What the hell is wrong with yourself!
With such a good start and such good shooting conditions, how can you shoot like this under your own eyes?
"In the next half of the year, there are almost four months left, and in these four months, I still have four more films to film...... During the last year of my contract next year, will there be no less than 10 movies waiting for me?"
More than ten consecutive mediocre movies, even if they are superstars, under the pressure of such popularity, they will only become the leading actors of bad movies, completely abandoned by the audience, and it will be difficult to turn over, which is worse than a newcomer.
"I have long said that Cheng Long is a good material, how about it, now it has come true, right? Our company has Cheng Long, I don't have to worry about not being able to make a good film, the future is bright, there is no problem! I, the contract boy, really lived up to my expectations! Like in "Mr. Zombie", the combination of zombies and kung fu is interesting, but don't you know that horror movies have always been difficult to sell? Luo Wei was still boasting beside him, patting Cheng Long on the shoulder, his eyebrows were bent into a small bridge in the night, his eyes were shining, he couldn't close his mouth when he spoke, and his irregular front teeth were exposed.
Qiang smiled, Cheng Long made an excuse, left him, and returned to his hotel room.
If he made such a bad movie, it was enough for Cheng Long to be depressed, then the popularity of "Mr. Zombie" became the source of Cheng Long's daze all night.
When "Drunken Fist" was a big hit in North America, even if he had been calm for a long time, he was secretly a little happy, feeling that he was about to become a pillar of film and television, and his appeal in kung fu films was like Lin Mu.
When he was in Xingyi, his heart was not as important as in those online novels, YY Lin Mu spent a lot of money to come to Xingyi to dig himself up, this is the YY that young people have had, and it is normal.
However, Lin Mu didn't seem to show much intention of "Cheng Long is a must", and he forgot that he didn't have much time to make movies, and he didn't care about the appearance of a page of film and television at all.
Just when Lin Mu didn't shoot it himself, and Cheng Long, who had just become popular, was also poached, it was originally just a very ordinary movie, a movie that was only shot for a month or two, without a star king, no Lin Mu Cheng Long, just relying on the two elements of "zombie" and Lin Zhengying, he stubbornly propped up this movie!
The feedback from the movie reviews on the mobile phone is simply a one-sided applause, and the only discordant and harmonious voice is also saying "I saw the ghost bride have nightmares, and zombies are also terrifying", but it is more like a disguised recognition.
……
Cheng Long's idea came earlier than expected.
The defeat of Guo Siniang in the previous life was that when it was complacent, among the movies released at the same time, there was a masterpiece "The Return of the Great Sage".
It is precisely because there are such changeable and high-level excellent movies in the same period that Guo Siniang changed from being proud to being confused, and finally ushered in the audience's contempt and abandonment.
And the same is true of "Shaolin Woodman Alley", relying on Cheng Long's hot fame and Luo Wei's vigorous publicity, this movie, no matter how high the scolding is, will only be a big hit at the box office.
But who let him meet the authenticity of a page of film and television? Who let him see the outlier "Mr. Zombie" in a commercial movie!
Since the next day, the sound of scolding "Woodman Alley" on the Internet has not stopped, and after hearing that a page of film and television has released a good movie at the same time, those fans who originally did not watch "Mr. Zombie" because they didn't see Lin Mu's face naturally chose "Mr. Zombie" under the same circumstances.
It was also when the audience made their choices, Mu Zixin and them finally started their own game.
