Chapter 289: "The Most Dedicated Actor in History"

Throughout the second half of February, Liu Dong followed Cheng Xiaodong to several major cities in the north.

12 cities, 19 movie theaters, three online media interviews, basically two events every day.

Once, in Taiyuan, he was invited by a local real estate developer to cut the ribbon for a new real estate.

Originally, Liu Dong and Cheng Xiaodong didn't want to go, but there was no way, the coal boss had money, and he also had a stake in a cinema line in Shanxi.

On the evening of March 3, the group rushed back to the capital and began to prepare for the premiere on the night of the 6th.

When Li Manyuan and Berner's promotional pages were intense, Berner contacted major portals and put the video of Liu Dong giving him a knife on the banner at the top of the entertainment section.

In addition to the video link, a high-definition large picture is also placed on the homepage, on which Liu Dong can be clearly seen holding a dagger and stabbing into his thigh, with a resolute look.

uploaded videos on more than a dozen video websites such as Tudou, Youku, Lay's, iQiyi, and 56.com, and got a pop-up window in the lower right corner to recommend resources.

Poly Culture and Poly Huayi Media also joined in the promotion, and Huayi Media's Travel Satellite TV also produced an unprecedented special feature.

At this time, the New Year has passed, and people are still immersed in the atmosphere of the holidays

The domestic film market, which was originally sluggish with the painting of "Casting Names" and "Assembly Number", ushered in a small rebound, and at the end of January and early February, with the release of Zhou Xingchi's new film "Yangtze River No. 7" and "Slam Dunk" starring Jay Chou, the mainland film market was surprisingly hot, not far behind the last place in the Lunar New Year file.

The release dates of the two films were staggered for a whole week, and it did not have a great impact, and finally "Yangtze River No. 7" has reached 203 million at the box office so far, temporarily ranking as the 2008 annual box office champion, and winning 202 million over the 07 New Year's file, ranking fourth in the box office list of domestic film history, second only to the three blockbusters of "Hero", "The City Full of Golden Armor", and "Assembly Number".

Nearly 20 days after the release of "Slam Dunk", the total box office also successfully exceeded 100 million, ranking 12th at the box office of Guodian films.

The outbreak of "Yangtze River No. 7" and "Slam Dunk" also drove the overall film market, and even the box office of other films ushered in a wave of small growth.

......

Zhou Ze is an avid action movie lover, but he doesn't watch Jackie Chan and Li Lianjie's films, he always thinks that Jackie Chan is a comedy, and Li Lianjie is mostly martial arts films.

Zhou Ze believes that the most important thing in action movies is martial arts action, Cheng Long will make people laugh when he watches it, and Li Lianjie is more about a spirit.

In 05, a "Slaying the Wolf" made him a fan of Donnie Yen and Wu Jing, but as soon as the video of Donnie Yen being beaten down against Liu Dong came out, Zhou Ze no longer paid attention to Donnie Yen.

The weak are not worthy of his worship!

However, it is a pity that Liu Dong's previous movies are not the protagonists, and "The Beauty of the Mountains and Rivers" and "The Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" have not yet been released.

He had just returned from the cinema at noon and finished watching the recently popular "Slam Dunk".

Then turn on the computer, ready to go to Douban, time to "borrow" the film review, and give it to the editor-in-chief.

Even the professionalism of a journalist could not allow him to write a thousand-word article of praise for this film.

Maybe movie lovers really don't want to be entertainment journalists!

Zhou Ze thought in his heart that as soon as he graduated, he chose this industry with his love for movies, and he worked for three years.

It's very simple for him to praise a good movie, but he really can't bear to praise a big bad movie full of slots.

So I can only take a look on Douban, and draw one or two sentences from each movie review to make up a splendid article.

After shopping on Douban for more than half an hour, Zhou Ze clicked into the Tencent News and Entertainment section again, and what caught his eye was a huge photo that occupied nearly one-tenth of it.

A fully armored general was besieged, and the soldiers around him watched in horror as he slammed a dagger into his thigh.

The picture is a profile shot, and the face is not very clear.

What is it?

The reporter's instinct made him a little curious, and just as he wanted to click in, the picture scrolled to the next chapter.

Look at which general is still in the outfit, at this time his upper body armor has been half off, there is an arrow wound on the right chest, the helmet is full of blood stains, and the long hair with a shawl dances wildly in the wind, and the wild breath is blowing in his face.

Now I finally saw this person's face clearly, it was Liu Dong.

Zhou Ze suddenly became excited, and clicked in to see that it was a news with a group picture.

"The most dedicated actor in history!"

The huge eight characters were clearly visible, and Zhou Ze couldn't wait to look down.

"Today, the editor accidentally got a top-secret video, during the filming of the costume war movie "The Beauty of the Mountains", Liu Dong, who played the general, in order to perfectly integrate into the state of the character at that time, actually ruthlessly stabbed himself, and then sprinkled salt water to show a seriously injured and desperate general in front of the audience......"

Desolation, anger, madness, determination......

Zhou Ze excitedly clicked on the video!

Seeing Liu Dong pull up his trouser leg without hesitation and pick up the dagger, Zhou Ze was a little expectant, and the right hand of my mouse couldn't help but tremble.

Liu Dong stabbed into his thigh as if nothing happened, and pulled out a half-finger-long wound horizontally, without frowning during the whole process, as if this was not his own leg at all.

"Smack!"

Zhou Ze excitedly grabbed the mouse and slapped it heavily, and continued to look down.

Pouring the hypertonic saline into the wound, Liu Dong's face was a little distorted, you can imagine how much pain he suffered at that time, so he didn't scream.

After Liu Dong bandaged it, the camera cut to the fight scene, which was cut out by the crew to match the publicity.

"This is the real man, tough guy!"

Zhou Ze couldn't stop shouting in his heart, the man wielding a knife across the military array on the computer screen made him extremely respectful at this moment.

"you're a Slam Dunk!"

Zhou Ze shouted, crumpled the manuscript he had just written with great difficulty and threw it into the trash, picked up the pen and wrote on the white paper without thinking.

"Today, I went to the cinema to watch the "100 million yuan blockbuster" of "Slam Dunk". A movie made by a singer, if it weren't for the box office of 100 million, I would never waste two hours to go to the cinema for an afternoon, thinking that since there are so many audiences who like it, there is always something unique about it!"

"However, after watching it, I searched through all the words of praise in my head, and I couldn't find a single one that could be applied to this movie, at least my Chinese teacher didn't teach me how to praise a bad movie!"

"Cinematography, lighting, voiceover, action...... To put it nicely, it's mediocre. And if I had to tell the truth, I think it deserves a lot of words, like: good for nothing!"

Recalling the scene in the video just now, Zhou Zeti continued to write.
