Chapter 60: The Premiere of "Mr. Zombie" (Part I)
…
But any occasion that a man with a lot of women is most afraid of appearing is the kind of occasion where his women will come! For example, the premiere of "Mr. Zombie".
Zhao Yazhi, Li Saifeng, Luo Meiwei, Wen Bixuan, and Anita Mui all told Xu Cun that they wanted to accompany Xu Cun to watch the premiere of "Mr. Zombie".
At that time, Xu Cun was full of should.
However, on January 19th, Xu Cun suddenly gave Zhao Yazhi, Li Saifeng, Luo Meiwei, Wen Bixuan, and Anita Mui ten movie tickets for the premiere of "Mr. Zombie" each, and asked them to give them to relatives and friends.
In the face of Xu Cun's kindness, they naturally couldn't refuse - you know, not everyone can buy tickets for the premiere of "Mr. Zombie".
The fame of "Mr. Zombie" was so great that many avid fans began to line up to buy movie tickets in the early morning of the 19th. Therefore, not only the movie tickets for the premiere of "Mr. Zombie" were all sold out, but even the movie tickets for the other four "Mr. Zombie" performances on the 20th were also sold out.
As a result, Zhao Yazhi, Li Saifeng, Luo Meiwei, Wen Bixuan, and Anita Mui can only bring nine relatives and friends to watch "Mr. Zombie", while Xu Cun honestly sat between Lin Zhengying and Dong Wei, who returned to Xiangjiang because of the Chinese New Year. A possible big crash was easily resolved by Xu Cun.
……
Although it is not as strong as the first time I saw it, Tang Shuxuan, Chen Bosen, and Wang Zhonghan still have a dreamlike feeling when they see DreamWorks' opening animation again.
This time, the people who came to watch "Mr. Zombie" are not only Tang Shuxuan, Chen Bosen, and Wang Zhonghan, but also Fang Yuping, Tan Jiaming, Xu Ke, Xu Anhua, Tang Jiming, Cai Jiguang, Chen Anqi and a large number of academic directors around them.
It can be said that almost all the directors of Xiangjiang New Wave came to watch the premiere of "Mr. Zombie".
The opening animation ends.
As soon as the picture turned, the scene changed to Yizhuang.
Xu Guanying pushed open the door of Yizhuang, lit a handful of incense in front of the offering table, and then walked to the door and shouted: "Uncles, brothers and sisters, please come back and eat!"
"It's a guest at the door, you go first. Xu Guanying walked to the curtain and pulled it hard - a row of zombies wearing Qing Dynasty official uniforms with yellow talismans on their foreheads and a dark and white face suddenly appeared.
Subsequently, Xu Guanying put oil lamps and incense on each coffin......
Suddenly, the incense offering on one of the coffins was dragged into the coffin!
Seeing this, the audience's hearts are tight!
Xu Guanying put another incense offering on this coffin, but the incense was bounced out! Then, Xu Guanying was bitten by a skeleton, grabbed by the zombies in the coffin, counted the zombies, and was suddenly chased and killed by the zombies......
This series of atmospheric renderings mobilized all the emotions of the audience, and many viewers even thought it was a horror film.
It wasn't until the zombie was about to bite Xu Guanying that the dentures suddenly fell out, and he kept gagging, and the audience knew that this zombie was pretending to be a human being, and he was just scaring Xu Guanying to play.
Some viewers who felt deceived scolded:
"Grass! It's a fake!"
"I'll put your lungs on your head, people are scary and scared to death!"
“……”
Cai Jiguang also took this opportunity to laugh at Xu Ke next to him: "The atmosphere has changed sharply, from a horror movie to a comedy, it's a bit interesting!"
Tan Jiaming paid more attention to the shooting technique, he turned his head and asked Chen Anqi next to him: "Who is the cinematographer of this movie, how did this picture shoot so clearly? Moreover, this shooting technique ......"
Before Tan Jiaming finished speaking, more than a dozen zombies who had just been knocked off the yellow paper talisman by the two suddenly appeared behind Xu Cun!
Seeing this, the audience's scolding stopped abruptly, and Tan Jiaming's words couldn't go on.
Then, Xu Cun and Xu Guanying were chased by more than a dozen zombies and fled all over the house.
In the process of escaping, the two were full of jokes, and the terrifying atmosphere created just now suddenly dissipated, and the audience began to laugh.
Just when Xu Cun and Xu Guanying were killed by this group of zombies, Lin Zhengying, who was wearing a cloth coat and a short coat, and Chen You, who was wearing a Taoist robe, wearing small glasses and a mustache, appeared.
The originally powerful zombie was all subdued by Lin Zhengying and Chen You in a gesture - at this time, the audience had a deep impression of Lin Zhengying and Chen You, who were a bit of a ghost.
Then, Chen had a bell, and the string of zombies followed him. Seeing this, the audience immediately understood that Chen You was playing a corpse chaser.
Next, Lin Zhengying, who had a righteous face, began to be black and funny, and the strong contrast made the audience in the theater laugh.
Listening to the laughter of the audience, Lin Zhengying's breathing suddenly became rapid - after five or six years in the film industry, he has finally been recognized by the audience, how can he not be excited?
Qiusheng, played by Xu Cun, helps out in his aunt's fat powder shop, and when his aunt leaves, he tells him that the girl from Yihong Courtyard opposite will come to buy rouge in a while.
It didn't take long for the eldest lady Ren Tingting, played by Li Saifeng, to come to the fat powder shop, and Qiusheng treated her as a prostitute who came to buy rouge, and the two started a conversation that made all the audience laugh.
Qiusheng: "When will you start doing ......?"
Ren Tingting: "You said to learn this?"
Qiusheng: "Learning is the same as doing. ”
Ren Tingting: "My mother has taught me since I was twelve years old. ”
Qiusheng: "What? Your mother taught you?"
Ren Tingting: "Yes." It's a pity that she passed away too early, so I had to go to the provincial capital to study. ”
Qiusheng: "How old are you this year?"
Ren Tingting: "Eighteen years old. ”
Qiusheng: "Isn't that six years old, have you ever thought about one day?"
Ren Tingting: "No. If I were alive at eighty, I would continue to do it. ”
Qiusheng: "You didn't force it, did you?"
Ren Tingting: "This kind of thing has to be interesting, how can it be forced? Moreover, girls will like it." ”
Qiusheng: "Have you ever thought about when you won't do it?"
Ren Tingting: "No, I hope to pass on the knowledge I learned from the provincial capital to the girls here, and they will be very happy." ”
Qiusheng: "Forget about your own happiness, don't teach others badly." ”
Ren Tingting: "Your thinking is too backward. ”
Qiusheng: "It's not a backward thinking, it's about moral issues, so far for today, I won't do your business, please go back to Yihong Courtyard opposite." ”
“……”
After this hilarious dialogue, many audience members in the theater laughed directly!
And Tang Shuxuan, who has been trying her best to transform into commercialization, suddenly understood why her "Thirteen Don't Match" was dismal at the box office, and why her "Tycoon Gaiden" couldn't even be listed.
Suddenly, Tang Shuxuan had a hint of "it's better to leave the film industry here".
