Chapter 31: Rave reviews
…
"Brother Cun, I've bought breakfast, will you and Ah Wei eat it now or later?" Wen Bixuan's voice sounded outside Xu Cun's bedroom.
Last night, he tossed with Luo Meiwei a total of five times, and Xu Cun was already hungry. So, when he heard the word 'breakfast,' he immediately woke up. Then, Xu Cun patted Luo Meiwei's ass and said, "Ah Wei, get up for breakfast." ”
Luo Meiwei was also hungry, but compared with being hungry, she was more sleepy when she was tossed and fell apart. Therefore, Luo Meiwei turned over and muttered, "I'll sleep for a while." Then he fell asleep again.
Seeing this, Xu Cun didn't call Luo Meiwei anymore, he hastily put on his clothes, took out the white cloth under Luo Meiwei's body and put it together with Lin Qingxia's white sheet, and then walked out of the bedroom.
After Wen Bixuan heard the sound of getting up from Xu Cun's bedroom, he put the porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork, and the fritters and braised eggs were also laid out for Xu Cun.
On the days when this kind of meal comes to open his mouth, Xu Cun feels very comfortable!
After sitting down, Xu Cun picked up a fritter and said to Wen Bixuan, who was sitting opposite him: "The company has nothing to do recently, you can go home for a few days, and I will get you some money in a while, and you can buy some gifts for your family." ”
Because Xu Cun and Luo Meiwei were turning clouds and rain under her nose, Wen Bixuan's mood was not good. Now, hearing that Xu Cun was going to drive her home, Wen Bixuan's mood was even worse. So much so that Wen Bixuan drank the porridge, and tears fell.
Seeing this, Xu Cun was slightly stunned and asked, "What's the matter, Ah Xuan, who bullied you, sue Brother Cun, Brother Cun will clean him up for you." ”
Wen Bixuan wiped away two handfuls of tears and said, "Brother Cun, I don't want to go home." ”
"What else should I do, that's it, if you don't want to go back, you won't go back, you have the final say. Actually, I just want you to go back to the scenery, since you don't want to, then forget it. Xu Cun said.
Xu Cun's words made Wen Bixuan's heart move-Wen Bixuan wanted to return to her hometown in fine clothes, and when she thought about that scene, she felt very happy. However, Wen Bixuan was afraid that after returning to Jingling, he would never come back. If that's the case, Wen Bixuan would rather never return to Jingling.
Hearing that Xu Cun didn't mean not to let her come back, Wen Bixuan asked tentatively: "Brother Cun, I'll go to Tiaojingling in a while, can I come back at night?" ”
"Okay, yes, but half a day is enough, don't forget, you still have to buy gifts." Xu Cun reminded.
"Enough! One look at it and I'll be back. Wen Bixuan said.
Xu Cun thought for a while and said, "That's it, I'll ask Ah Fa to drive you to go shopping, and then send you to Tiaojingling, so that you can stay at home for a while." ”
There is a special car to pick up, which is undoubtedly more face-saving for Wen Bixuan, who wants to show off, and can better satisfy Wen Bixuan's vanity. Therefore, Wen Bixuan took advantage of her excitement to move her chair to Xu Cun's side, and then kissed Xu Cun fiercely and said, "Brother Cun, I love you to death!" ”
"Twelve years old is too young, even if a beast is like me, I can't do it!" Xu Cun looked at Wen Bixuan, whose face was not red and his heart was not beating, and said.
……
After the meal, Xu Cun dialed Lin Zhengying's house and said, "A-Ying, you asked Ah Fa to come to my ......."
Putting down the phone, Xu Cun picked up the newspapers and magazines that Wen Bixuan had bought.
The entertainment version of "Ming Pao", "Happy Ghost" is a light, pleasant, concise, and clear good movie, which is a comedy for all ages.
The entertainment edition of "Sing Tao Daily", the headline on the front page - "Happy Ghost" has received rave reviews, the audience is quite satisfied, "Happy Ghost" may be the best movie of the year in Hong Kong!
The headline of the entertainment section of "Oriental Daily" - "Happy Ghost" is well worth watching. Aspect 1, the three little girls are very cute, and each has its own story, and the most important thing is that these stories have a certain realistic basis. Lin Jingjing is very optimistic and loves sports. Lin Xiaohua involves high school students falling in love, getting pregnant before marriage, and her boyfriend changing his mind. Yan Ruyu faced the expectations of her parents, was under a lot of academic pressure, and committed suicide because she failed to cheat on exams. Highlight 2, the school sports meeting, the dance party, the punishment of Chen Shimei, the classroom chalk fight, the examination room and other plots are very funny, and the entertainment is very prominent. Aspect 3, the nun is unforgettable, old-fashioned, and very harsh on dressing and the relationship between men and women. Aspect 4, Zhu Bangyan finally became Zhu Xiucai, people and ghosts get along, and each has its own harvest. Aspect 5, not only joy, but also tears, the process of burning the rope is really worrying, fortunately it was okay in the end. The ending, reincarnation and shouting dad, one report and one report, the design is very ingenious......
"Big Close-up" - Before talking about the movie "Happy Ghost", I want to talk about the opening animation of DreamWorks Films, the fantastic picture and music gave me an inexplicable feeling, reminded me of all the memories of my fourteen years in the film industry, and brought me a shock from the depths of my heart...... "DreamWorks" is the best film company name I know, I hope DreamWorks can also be the best film company...... "Happy Ghost" starring, director, producer, screenwriter, cinematographer, music, art, modeling design, and editing are all Xu Cun alone, and Xu Cun does a good job in every job, I personally think he is a rare film all-rounder in fifty years...... Film Critic: Tang Shuxuan.
……
Of course, it's not all positive reviews, and some people point out that the actors of "Happy Ghost" generally have poor acting skills, and the story has no connotation and other shortcomings.
However, these reviews have been drowned out in a flood of positive reviews.
……
After reading the newspapers and magazines, Xu Cun was convinced that with these positive comments, the results of "Happy Ghost" would not be bad.
Now, Xu Cun's only worry is whether the box office of "Happy Ghost" can exceed 10 million.
In the previous life, the box office of "Happy Ghost" was 17 million, but the ticket price of the 1984 Hong Kong movie ticket was 16 yuan.
At present, the ticket price of a movie ticket in Hong Kong is a fraction of the ticket price of a movie ticket in 1984.
If calculated according to the proportion, the box office of "Happy Ghost" is about six or seven million.
However, there are no absolutes in everything -- in 1984, there were many good films, and "Happy Ghost" was even more besieged by fierce films such as "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers", "Fast Food Truck", and "Family Portrait".
And now, except for the "Deed of Sale" starring the Xu brothers that will be released in early August, Xu Cun has no second opponent - even "Tiger and Chicken" starring Hong Jinbao, which will be released tomorrow, cannot pose a threat to "Happy Ghost".
In addition, "Happy Ghost" was screened in 16 Shaw Brothers theaters for 23 days, forming a semi-monopoly.
Therefore, the box office of "Happy Ghost" is still expected to exceed 10 million.
