Chapter 222: Screening
When the premiere of "The True Colors of Men" was held, the crew of "Fuse" was also screened in a Xingmei cinema in Beijing.
The crew had different thoughts, and no one spoke along the way.
Donnie Yen tightened his face, and met Liu Dong at the audition of the crew of "Jiangshan Beauty" in the morning, which made him very angry.
Gu Tianle and Lu Liangwei were also worried, and they received a call from Liu Dong at noon today.
And Zhou Zhaolong is probably the most fluctuating in the four-person center.
He has successfully won the role of Yujiang God of War, and he has already gone to the crew to sign the contract in the morning.
A few days ago, as soon as the news of the re-audition of the crew of "Jiangshan Beauty" came out, he was told to pass the audition.
And now that the sight of "Beauty in the Mountains" is over, he has just signed the contract.
Is it all a coincidence?
Thinking of Liu Dong's call at noon, there will be a reporter interview tonight, so he can help cooperate.
The threat in Liu Dong's tone was undisguised, if Zhou Zhaolong didn't do it, his role would definitely be in vain.
Even the content of several of their calls has been recorded.
can go to grab the actor with Donnie Yen, and he is only a male number four, even if he signs a contract, there are many ways to terminate the contract, and even let him pay the crew a liquidated damages.
Zhou Zhaolong glanced at Donnie Yen with his peripheral vision, and his eyes slowly applied.
"Ah Long, is there something?" Donnie Yen, who was thinking, keenly felt that someone was looking at him, and turned his head to look at Zhou Zhaolong.
"It's okay!" Zhou Zhaolong smiled unchanged.
Anyway, I have been in the entertainment industry for more than 20 years, and since I have made up my mind, I will not show flaws on my face.
Donnie Yen did not doubt him, and continued to think about something.
However, Gu Tianle and Lu Liangwei looked at Zhou Zhaolong in unison, and the three of them looked at each other with indifferent expressions, as if they were no different from before.
It didn't take long for the crew to rush to the cinema, and it was the general manager of the theater who personally received them.
Donnie Yen + Gu Tianle + Fan Binbin, this combination is enough to make people pay attention to it no matter where it is placed.
In the theater lounge, Fan Binbin was already waiting there.
Compared with the rush of filming, Fan Binbin, the publicity of the crew during this time, was not absent for a moment, and did not miss any opportunity to promote himself.
After a few polite words, Ye Weixin got down to business, "Thank you Mr. Wang for being willing to borrow the venue to promote our crew this time!"
"Director Ye is polite, I posted the notice of the screening a few days ago, and the tickets were sold out before two days, but your crew helped me attract a lot of audiences, and there were many reporters!" said the theater owner with a smile.
"Are there any reporters here?" Ye Wei was novel, this was not a premiere, it was just an ordinary screening, and this was just a niche action movie, and they rarely saw reporters in several big cities before.
"There are more than 10 of them, all with microphones, and there is a photographer behind them, and I put them all in as soon as I see that they are here to interview you!"
"Then thank you Mr. Wang, or we will go in first, so as not to delay your time!"
"Hehe, that's good, I'll take you there!"
A few people walked through the exclusive passage to the screening room, which was almost full for 500 people.
The movie hasn't started yet, or most of these audiences are not here for the movie, as soon as they saw Gu Tianle and Fan Binbin, the audience who were chattering and discussing suddenly became excited.
"It's Gu Zai, Gu Zai is here!"
"Gu Zai is still so handsome, much more handsome than Huang Xiaoming!"
"That's it, Yang Guo played by Huang Xiaoming is so spicy!"
"That's right, it's exaggerated and frivolous, just like "Merry Boy Tang Bohu"!"
"But Gu Zai seems to be dark again, so distressed!"
"Black dots are good, this is charming!"
"My house is so beautiful, that big wave roll, it's just too fantastic!"
"The goddess is still so beautiful!"
"Have you seen the poster outside, the one where Binbin and Gu Tianle are lying on the bed is so beautiful, my heart is about to melt!"
"Look at her gorgeous lips and charming eyes, it's over... She seems to be looking at me!"
......
There was a lot of talk coming from the audience, mostly about Koo Tim Lok and Fan Binbin, and some loyal fans of action movies talking about Donnie Yen.
"I don't know how this "Fuse" was filmed, it is said to be a prequel to "Slaying the Wolf"!"
"I don't expect to be as exciting as "Slaying the Wolf", it's good to have 8 points!"
"I watched the trailer, the fight was very exciting, Zhou Zhaolong was in the stadium, after smashing the chair, it was like parkour, all the way through!"
"The fight is good, but I don't know how to compare with Wu Jing and Donnie Yen in the alley!"
"In fact, the biggest improvement in this film is that there are more literary dramas, Gu Tianle's acting skills are still good, and the shot of him beating that little gangster with a limp and madness is very explosive!"
......
In terms of fame, Gu Tianle and Fan Binbin are much older than Donnie Yen, the former's "The Condor Heroes" has become a classic in the minds of many people, and the sentence "Seeing Yang is wrong for life" has touched the heartstrings of many girls.
And Fan Binbin's "Huanzhu Gege" is still being rebroadcast on Shonan TV.
Now Donnie Yen does not have the "Ip Man" that made him a super first-line star, and a simple action star cannot attract many fans.
To explain the screening in layman's terms, it is to choose to pre-screen movies that have not yet been officially released in individual local theaters.
The screening has a history of more than half a century in Hollywood, and in China began in 2002 with "Hero", when Zhang Yimou held a seven-day screening in Shenzhen in advance in order to make "Hero" eligible to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.
After "Hero", He Ping's "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", the popular "Matrix" series in China, and "If Love" all adopted the form of screenings in order to enhance the romantic atmosphere to satisfy the audience's curiosity.
And the one who will "carry forward" this form of screening is Brother Chen Kai.
In order to meet the Oscar application criteria for Best Foreign Language Film, "Wu Ji", which was released the year before last, was screened in Chengdu for a period of 7 days before October 1.
In order to prevent piracy, Chen Kaige publicly demanded that he was not allowed to bring any metal objects into the venue, including video equipment, mobile phones, earrings, rings and other viewing regulations, and asked the media not to make negative reports, and did not prepare special tickets for the media, which caused dissatisfaction among the media.
Such a "domineering" Chen Kaige naturally caused a common boycott from many media, perhaps in order to maintain his dignity, or to show his ability, no media issued any reports during the entire screening period, not even negative news, completely remained silent, and only appeared sporadically in the "film schedule" of individual newspapers.
Although he was a little dissatisfied with the entry of reporters with cameras in the theater, Ye Weixin didn't say anything, just let people scatter and pay more attention.
