Chapter 896 - A Different Theme Movie
"Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" has been full of tragedy since it was finalized, at least in the eyes of most people.
Huaguo's main theme film is against Hollywood commercial blockbusters, and it is also a Hollywood blockbuster that has exploded at the box office in the first week, and almost no one thinks that "Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" can be spared.
In terms of publicity and distribution, "Wolf Warrior: Operation Mekong", because it is backed by the three official and private giants of Huaying Group, Bayi Factory, and Dianjin Film and Television, coupled with the release of this special period, has basically achieved the ultimate in publicity.
Next, let's see if this film with a new type of main theme movie can change the criticized drawbacks of the previous Chinese main theme movies, and fight its way out of the encirclement.
In terms of film scheduling, "Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" did have an advantage at the beginning, and this film can be said to occupy a favorable location, but it lacks time.
The eyes of the people all over the country are staring, so once the box office and attendance rate of this film are too poor, even Huaying will not be able to blatantly affect the number of films.
However, it is precisely because it is so tragic that it has attracted a lot of audiences, and many viewers buy tickets even just to support domestic films, and they are not really optimistic about this film.
Li Dongyang thinks that he is not an angry youth, he has always advocated rationality and patriotism, and usually on the Internet, Li Dongyang has not scolded domestic movies, especially domestic main theme movies.
But this time, when choosing to watch the movie, he still chose "Operation Mekong of the Wolf Warrior" with a few dead friends.
"Dongyang, do you think "Wolf Warrior" can work? I always feel a little hanging. Li Dongyang's nemesis Zheng Fei was a little worried.
"I also think it's hanging, but after all, this movie is a movie written and led by Ye Shen, and the publicity says that it is a new type of main theme movie, and the investment is also the highest among the main theme movies, so take a look, maybe there is still something to see. Li Dongyang sighed.
"If you want me to say, what can the main theme movie do? I can't figure it out, if it's "Transformers 2", why is it like this?" Chen Junjie, another Li Dongyang's sworn friend, said disapprovingly.
"That's not for sure, in other words, Ye Qiu's movie, have you ever seen a loss? I'm more optimistic, maybe "Wolf Warrior" can really shoot a different main theme taste, in fact, our Chinese audience really doesn't have high requirements for the main theme movie, as long as it's not too bad, the box office is definitely guaranteed. Although Li Dongyang also felt that it was unlikely, he said something else.
"Not to mention, yesterday I went to see "Doctor Fantastic" made by the special effects, although the plot is simple and crude, but it is cool to watch, I hope "Wolf Warrior" is not like the main theme movies in the past, full of preaching and tall and complete. Zheng Fei said.
......
Because the previous publicity was in place enough, the attendance rate of "Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" is still very high, after all, in addition to the criticism of the main theme movie, the rest of the lineup, including the screenwriter, etc., can be regarded as the top in China.
If it was in the past, even if it was a bad movie, but with the back of Huaying and the main theme movie, it would push the box office up, but the current situation is different, there are many Hollywood blockbusters in the same period, even if it is Huaying, I am afraid that I would not dare to support this movie so blatantly.
Of course, this kind of movie has an advantage, that is, if the movie is good enough, then the treatment enjoyed is definitely not something that Hollywood blockbusters can enjoy.
Therefore, when the attendance rate of the first day of the release is sufficient, word-of-mouth is extremely crucial.
Soon the movie begins.
The opening scene of "Operation Mekong of Wolf Warriors" has not changed much from the previous life.
Two Chinese merchant ships were attacked in the waters of the Golden Triangle of the Mekong River, all 13 Chinese crew members were killed, and Thai police seized 900,000 methamphetamine pills from the ship. When the news reached China, the whole country was shocked.
In order to find out the truth, Gao Gang, the head of the anti-narcotics corps, accepted a special task and led a brave and combative combat team into Thailand, and joined forces with Fang Xinwu, an intelligence agent lurking in Thailand, to investigate the case in the Golden Triangle.
At the same time, Wang Leng Feng, a soldier of the Huaguo Wolf Warrior Special Brigade, also received news that his brother was on the list of victims.
In order to avenge his brother, Leng Feng broke away from the army without authorization and infiltrated the Golden Triangle area, waiting for an opportunity to avenge his brother.
Gao Gang found out through the informant Fang Xinwu that the whole thing was planned by the Golden Triangle drug lord Chachai, but Chachai has always been secretive and can only start through Chachai's son.
At the same time, Leng Feng also found out the culprit through his own methods, which is Chachai.
But when arresting Chachai, Leng Feng was one step slower than Gao Gang and the others, and Leng Feng could only follow Gao Gang and the others for this reason.
Gao Gang and others obtained the specific location of Chachai's lair through Chachai's son.
It's just that when they went, they found that this was a trap set by the other party, and for this reason, Gao Gang and his party from Hua Guo suffered heavy damage.
In the end, Leng Feng suddenly used cold arrows in his back and used a sniper rifle to help Gao Gang and the others evacuate.
And Chachai's subordinates were killed by Leng Feng after rescuing Chachai's son, and Chachai's son was taken away by Leng Feng.
When Li Dongyang and others interrogated Chachai's son by Gao Gang and others, they felt that this movie did not seem to be much different from the previous main theme movies, except that Leng Feng was a little unexpected, Gao Gang and other anti-narcotics police from Huaguo interrogated Chachai's son and obtained information, which was too easy.
Moreover, Chachai's son's violence and cruelty have long been exposed, but in the face of such a cruel drug lord, Gao Gang and others still do not agree to torture to extract confessions, which makes many viewers feel that it is the main theme.
But at the same time, I was a little disappointed with this movie.
However, after the follow-up Gao Gang and other combat teams fell into Chachai's ambush and suffered heavy losses, Chachai's son fell into the hands of Leng Feng, but the audience began to look forward to it.
Sure enough, when Chachai's son reappeared, he was tied to a chair.
When Leng Feng put a gun to Chachai's son's head, Chachai still thought that the police in Huaguo would not kill people at will.
As a rule, Leng Feng should tell Chachai's son that he is not a Chinese policeman, and coerce Chachai's son to tell where his father Chachai's lair is.
But as a result, Leng Feng actually put away the gun, and just when everyone was disappointed, Leng Feng suddenly picked up the two iron rods that were connected to the electricity and inserted them cleanly into Chachai's son's legs.
Here, Ye Qiu borrowed from the plot of the male protagonist's forced confession in "Hurricane Rescue" in his previous life.
What made the audience especially happy was that Leng Feng resolutely chose to kill Chachai's son after electrocuting Chachai's son and obtaining accurate information.
This is absolutely impossible to appear in the main theme movies in the past.
