Chapter 387 Oriental Movie = Kung Fu?
"Is this your boss's plan? Movie at the bar...... Hehe, I really watched a good show!"
Ye Chu made sarcastic remarks, and Xiao Xiaoxing and Zhang Xiaoquan naturally ridiculed each other. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"If you want to see it, you can see it, if you don't want to see it, who is begging you!"
"Fish do things, and no one can guess the ending until the last moment. ”
Shen Fei also said: "I believe in Mr. Mai!"
As soon as the three of them finished speaking, Mbiwa appeared like a mournful concubine, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he made Xi Xiaoxing and Zhang Xiaoquan speechless.
"Ye, are you Orientals so weird? I'm here at a bar, and he has to show some movies. You see, the guests are getting more and more walking!"
Mbiwa is telling the truth.
Bars that used to be full are now empty.
Even those who stayed were mostly people who drank and chatted with friends and followed movies...... Rarely.
Xi Xiaoxing and Zhang Xiaoquan's hearts sank.
After coming to Cannes, Mai Xiaoyu briefly told them about his plan, which was basically similar to the sales method of "Sword and Fairy", but this time it was extremely difficult.
The sales of "Fairy Sword" benefited from the good relationship between Meng Ren and Dolphin Satellite TV. Through Liang Pei, he invited the heads of a number of satellite TV purchasing departments to gather KTV to watch the first episode of "Fairy Sword", and impress buyers with the quality of the TV series.
And "Fatal ID" lacks innate advantages, and Mai Xiaoyu can only attract more people to Mbiwa's bar through a series of gimmicks. Then use the MLGB band and himself to hang as many audiences as possible, cramming into the movie.
How many filmmakers these audiences have, whether these filmmakers are willing to watch "Fatal ID", and what the evaluation will be after watching it, etc., are not under Mai Xiaoyu's control. That's why he asked Stewart to bring Frundrich to the bar tonight, and one more filmmaker would give him one more chance.
It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen.
Mai Xiaoyu's only reliance is that "Fatal ID" is copied from the movie of the same name in his dream, and the reputation and box office of the American movie in his dream are not bad. Excluding the actor factor, the plot should meet the tastes of a considerable number of European and American audiences, and conform to the vision of Western filmmakers.
It's his own unique secret and can't be told to anyone...... No one believes it when he says it, and it's even more difficult for people to accept his multiple personality.
Ye Chu's ridicule, Mbiwa's complaints, the loss of guests, and the contempt of the audience made the hearts of Yan Xiaoxing and Zhang Xiaoquan gradually become cold, worried that Mai Xiaoyu would lose his footing in Cannes......
The worries in the hearts of the two were well hidden, showing the hard spirit of a dead duck's mouth, but they were still easily seen through by Ye Chu.
Mai Xiaoyu, Mai Xiaoyu, what you said before was full of flowers, and in the end, Jiang Lang was exhausted.
Sighing secretly in his heart, Ye Chu was in no mood to continue to expose the clumsy disguise of the two of them, leaning against the sofa with a wine glass, his eyes casually falling on the TV wall where "Fatal ID" was playing.
"It turned out to be ...... Suspense films? It's a bit interesting, it seems to be different from domestic suspense movies, but it has a bit of Hollywood flavor......"
"Ye, Mai is your friend, you help me persuade him not to show movies in my bar, he plans to show them for several days. ”
"Shhhh......h
Strictly speaking, Mai Xiaoyu's plan succeeded.
In addition to Ye Chu, who studied in the United States and was deeply "poisoned" by American imperialist culture, there are also a small number of viewers who have their eyes on the movie for various reasons.
In the booth.
Frenrich crossed his arms and leaned back on the couch to watch "Deadly ID".
Someone next to him said: "Hey, Bart, what's so good about oriental movies, and it's not a kung fu movie." Come on, drink, and hope this damn bar closes soon!"
Freundrich shook his head: "Drink, I'll watch a movie." ”
His words drew laughter from his companions.
"Have you watched fewer movies these days?"
"An oriental movie that has nothing to do with kung fu has no selling points. ”
"And it's like drinking beer in a café, and I don't know how the Oriental brain grows. ”
Ignoring them, Freunderich automatically discarded the noise in his ears and focused on the movie screen, his mind quietly following the progress of the film's plot.
The beginning of the movie he accidentally saw struck him in a familiar style - the style of the "Agatha Christie" murder case.
As the plot progresses and the first murder occurs, he becomes more and more sure of his judgment.
The "Agatha Christie" style murder plot is more attractive in Europe and the United States. Representative works such as "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Tragedy on the Nile" are all classic movies.
This style is more common in European and American films, but it appeared in a work directed by a Chinese director, and Freunrich saw it for the first time and was surprised.
As he expected, the plot continues to unfold, the characters in the play continue to die one by one due to murder, the murderer is never traced, and various interference and suspense factors frequently appear. He began to think about the direction and ending of the film in his own way.
But when the movie shows the male protagonist talking to a doctor in reality, the truth about multiple personalities is revealed for the first time in the film......
Brunzrich suddenly understood the theme of the film, and his eyes lit up: human nature!
Ye Chu's eyes also lit up.
Unlike Freundrich, he sees the film purely from the perspective of a Chinese audience.
Although he can't say it, he can feel that "Fatal ID" is different from all previous movies in China, which is refreshing to him. The movie-watching experience that this movie gave him was more like a Western movie starring all Chinese.
"Ye, who is the evil character? No, don't tell me, I hate that there is no suspense. ”
Mbiwa's sudden words woke Ye Chu up.
He noticed that Mbiwa had stopped complaining at some point and was watching the movie intently. And there are a few people in the bar who are as attracted to the movie as Mbiwa, although there are very few of them......
Did it work?
Ye Chu didn't know, but he knew that he liked this movie.
Stewart is bored.
After coming to the bar, she has been looking for Mai Xiaoyu.
Hearing that Mai Xiaoyu hadn't come to the bar because of an accident, she was very disappointed, sitting on the sofa drinking juice, absent-mindedly waiting for Mai Xiaoyu to appear.
Finally, after the play of "Fatal ID", the MLGB band and impersonators "rushed" to the bar to present the original performance of "Billiejean" and the "Beyond the Original" space step for the guests.
The news spread, the number of customers at the bar began to increase, and Stewart came to his senses, but Frenrich was leaving.
Puzzled, his companion asked, "Why are you leaving now?" ”
"I've seen the most exciting. Freunrich smiled slightly, turned to Stuart and said, "Thank you for inviting me to the bar tonight, I had a great time." ”
"You mean the ...... just now"
Freundrich winked and motioned to Stewart to say no more: "I have something to do, go back to the hotel first......" (To be continued.) )
