Chapter 292: Crematorium
Since the completion of the third part, Han Qiu has returned to China for more than half a month, and the propaganda of The Matrix 2 has also appeared all over the country. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's not just the posters of the Matrix posted outside the movie theater, but also the two black images of Heath and Annie can be seen everywhere on the Internet and on major video apps.
At the same time, the trailer also leaked during the period.
In it, in addition to all kinds of cool fight scenes, the last city of Zion is finally exposed to its true colors. However, a few scenes passed in a flash, and before the audience could see what the second part was like, the trailer was almost gone.
"I'm rubbing, I just saw the place of passion, and it's gone?"
"It feels like Zion is a bit shabby, how do people dress like beggars?"
"It's like, it's a bit cyberpunk-like. ”
“........ This is still the end of the world, and mankind has no clothes to wear. ”
The first part was spent on a spaceship, and the somewhat tattered cabins inside made everyone feel that the human situation was a bit bad, but when they actually saw Zion, the audience realized that it was not only a little bad, it was terrible!
But the more this happens, the more the audience wants to see the ending of Zion later and see if the protagonist can save the world. Finally, I want to see if the Matrix is destroyed and if humanity can win again.
...........
On August 10th, under the expectation of countless audiences, this day finally came as scheduled, and the second part of The Matrix was also released on this day.
From the first day of the Lunar New Year to the present, it has been more than half a year, and the audience has been waiting for it, and now, they can finally see the true face of the second part.
In the evening, before the premiere of The Matrix, long queues formed outside movie theaters across the country.
"Brother, what movie are you watching?"
"Of course it's The Matrix 2, the first part has left so much suspense, it will definitely be revealed in 2. ”
"Coincidentally, I also came to watch the second part. ”
"Hehe, it's unfortunate, it's not a coincidence, it's the same when you ask other people, almost all of the people who come to the cinema at this point are for the premiere of The Matrix 2. ”
“.......”
In addition, if there are more people, naturally, then the tickets are not enough. Therefore, outside the doors of many movie theaters, there are scalpers who have grabbed tickets online in advance and are peddling tickets.
"I didn't buy a ticket for the premiere of The Matrix 2, what should I do?"
"I didn't buy it either, the egg hurts, I read it on the Internet yesterday and it's gone. ”
"Hehe, it's good that I bought it online three days in advance. ”
"Friend, I have a ticket here, but the price is a little higher, or?"
"How much?"
"This number. The scalper held up a finger.
"100? ”
"Premiere tickets, you can't grab them, of course they're expensive. Moreover, this is the sequel to The Matrix, such an awesome movie, who doesn't want to watch it? If you don't want it, I'll sell it to someone else. ”
“....... Wait, 100 is 100, I want it. ”
.......
This is just one microcosm, and there are countless similar scenes across the country.
The premiere of the magic capital was even more popular, and Rao is Han Banxian knew that the power of the sequel was very powerful, but he was still taken aback by the crowds of media reporters and audiences.
In the premiere venue, Ye Chen sat next to Han Qiu and said with emotion: "I'll go, when will my movie have so many people." ”
Lin Hua also muttered on the side: "Ye Chen, we can't compare with Old Han, he is a pervert." Even if you make a science fiction movie, one shot or three? The key is that he has succeeded, and one is more popular than the other. ”
Ye Chen looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's really incomparable." Forget it, I'd better be honest about my comedy. ”
Lin Hua nodded sympathetically: "I also make my love films." ”
Han Qiu has a black line: "........"
........
This time, among the several white leading actors, only Anne came to China, and Heath and Hugo both attended the premiere of Warner Lane in the United States.
The premiere in Los Angeles, USA, is as popular as the magic capital, and the Yankees' love for the Matrix is no less than that of the Chinese.
After all, no one has ever seen a science fiction movie before, involving the real and the unreal of the matrix. What's more, the Yankees haven't even seen Truman yet, and compared to the Chinese audience, they are not psychologically prepared at all.
At present, Warner has also finished filming Truman, which will probably be released immediately after The Matrix 2.
Both involve truth and falsehood, and Truman was released at this time, and he could also borrow the autumn wind of the Matrix. It's just that although Truman is a rare classic, it is not a pure commercial blockbuster after all, and the final box office is definitely not as good as the Matrix.
But in Oscar's eyes, the Matrix is completely inferior to Truman. There's no way, the most unsightly thing for those guys in the Oscar Academy is a commercial blockbuster with awesome special effects, not to mention that The Matrix is a science fiction movie.
If it's dead, the Matrix may be able to win some inconsequential technical awards, but the main awards, such as Best Actor and Actress and Best Picture, Best Director, etc., have absolutely no chance of getting their hands on it.
You don't see that the Dark Knight was popular in the United States at the beginning, and the most important award he finally won was only Heath's Best Supporting Actor.
This is still someone who bought it for their lives.
Therefore, Warner doesn't expect Truman to make too much money at the box office, and they just used this movie to win the Oscars.
At the beginning, their remake of Infernal Affairs was the big winner of the Oscars that year. Best Picture, Best Director, the two most important awards are all won by him.
What made Han Qiu hide his face and tears the most was that it also won the Best Adapted Screenplay Award.
Although Han Qiu knew that after the movie was adapted, it had little to do with him, but seeing the success of the adapted movie in Hollywood and the Oscars, Han Qiu was still a little sad in his heart.
I knew that I wouldn't sell the adaptation rights, and I would come to shoot the American version of Infernal Affairs in person in the future.
However, as soon as this idea appeared, it was stifled by Han Qiu, he filmed the Chinese version of Infernal Affairs, and then personally released the entire American version, under the two completely different styles, it seems that he is a bit nondescript as a director. Besides, he didn't have the qualifications to enter Hollywood at the beginning, and he couldn't invite an actor like Xiao Lizi.
Without a few actors, no matter how good the script is, it will lose a layer of brilliance.
When he came back to his senses, Han Qiu realized that a reporter girl suddenly appeared in front of him. He still has a little impression of this girl, it seems... It's the one that interviewed me when the first part was released.
"It's you. Han Qiu recalled.
"That's right, Director Han, I'm here to interview you again. The reporter girl was smiling, looking familiar.
"Okay, you ask. ”
Looking at Han Qiu's calm and gentle smile, the reporter's sister felt helpless in her heart. After the last interview, she thought it was a movie about hackers fighting on the Internet. But unexpectedly, this fact is a bit far from what I imagined.
Holding back the awkwardness in her heart, the reporter girl decided to go straight to Huanglong, "Director Han, can I ask about the final ending? Did the savior destroy the matrix and save mankind?"
Han Qiu looked at it and replied lightly: "You can watch the movie and think about this yourself, I don't have good spoilers." As the saying goes, spoilers are cool for a while, and the whole family crematorium. ”
"Poof~~~" The reporter girl was amused by Han Qiu's words. Cool for a while, crematorium?
Han Qiu coughed lightly and pretended to say, "Ahem, don't write this paragraph just now." ”
"Okay, if you give me spoilers, I won't write it. ”
Han Qiu: "......."
After thinking about it, Han Qiu beckoned, "Come here, I'll tell you." ”
The reporter girl blinked, her little hand holding the microphone turned back, and leaned her head sideways.
Han Qiu best hooked up a touch of arc and said, "I'll tell you in advance, the second part is still not the end of the story." ”
"Huh?" the reporter's eyes widened, "Isn't that a third...."
"Shh~~" Han Qiu raised his index finger and put it in front of his mouth, "Just know it, don't say it." ”
"Uh-huh. ”
"Well, I'll tell you this in advance, it's refreshing. You media can take advantage of the release time to seize the opportunity for news releases in advance. ”
The reporter's girl smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Director Han." ”
"You're welcome, remember to delete the crematorium just now, don't write this in. ”
Reporter girl: "........."
......
Moments later, eight o'clock arrived, and the movie was released on time.
The truth behind the matrix, the true identity of the savior, is about to be revealed!
