Chapter 533: The Show Begins
On the day of the Double 11 Light G Festival, Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon attended Wang Fatzi's wedding together. Seeing the envy in the girl's eyes, Li Mo felt that it was time to think about his life's events.
The only thing that gave him a headache was Krystal.
Although the girl has long made it clear that she doesn't mind Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon getting married, Li Mo knows that no woman will not mind this kind of thing. But there is always someone to sacrifice, and there is no choice but to grieve krystal.
Li Mo secretly began to prepare alone, and time passed day by day, sending away the end of 2014, and immediately ushering in 2015, the new year.
Seoul has been surrounded by a cold winter, but the entertainment industry is still hot.
Kang Youshuo's new work "Deadly Virus" has been completed, and large-scale publicity has been overwhelming. Posters can be seen everywhere at subway station entrances, buses, and streets.
On January 15, the premiere of "Deadly Virus" will be held.
The confident Kang Woo Suk and Shobox only held a test screening, and after receiving good reviews, they began to be released on a large scale. What is intriguing is that "Train to Busan", which was invested by the company and Sanshi Film and Television, will hold a large-scale test screening across the country in five days, and no precise release time has been announced.
In the eyes of the media, this is a signal that the company is unwilling to go toe-to-toe with "Deadly Virus", so they began to sing praises for Kang Youshuo.
"What is this?"
Kim Taeyeon took the envelope handed to her by Li Mo, "Invitation? They even invited you over to the premiere? ”
The works of the senior Kang Youshuo were released, and all the seniors who could participate in the premiere were the seniors in the circle. Even with his young status, if he is not invited, this kind of occasion is not qualified to attend, let alone now Kim Taeyeon is out alone.
She was even more surprised that the invitation was sent over there, was it sincere or a demonstration?
"Come with me... Don't be in a hurry to refuse, Xiujing is not available there. ”
Kim Taeyeon's mouth widened, "Hey, I'm not in the actor circle, and if I go, I'm just making myself uncomfortable." ”
"Follow me, who dares to look down on you?" Li Mo said.
"You should be walking the red carpet, right?"
Li Mo slapped his head suddenly, "Yes, if you want to walk the red carpet, it's better for me to go alone." It's so cold outside, I can't bear to let you wear a skirt. ”
"No, I'm going." Kim Taeyeon was afraid that Li Mo would say something amazing for a while, after all, it was the premiere of Kang Woo Suk's movie, no matter how you compete, you always have to give face to others.
"No skirts are allowed."
Kim Taeyeon glanced at Li Mo, if she doesn't wear a skirt, is she wearing jeans?
The two arrived at the theater before 6 p.m.
The scene has already been arranged, and many enthusiastic fans are not afraid of the cold, shouting the names of the stars present in the cold wind.
Shenma Lee Byung-hun, Rain, Kim Tae-hee, etc., it seems that Shobox has put a lot of effort into it.
Dramatically, when Li Mo got out of the car, a violent cold wind blew, and the scene was suddenly silent.
Even Li Mo was taken aback, thinking that his aura was too powerful for no one to speak out.
The audience, who quickly came to their senses, noticed the arrival of Lee Mo and Kim Taeyeon, and there was a little applause and cheers for Kim Taeyeon, and Lee Mo was obviously not very popular.
Li Mo smiled, but said to Kim Taeyeon in a low voice, "Did these people pay to invite here?" ”
"I guess it's, who made you so annoying!" Kim Taeyeon also made a joke.
Kang Youshuo was receiving the guests in the theater, and when he heard the staff prompting Li Mo to come, his face was a little strange.
His original intention was to send an invitation letter to Li Mo politely, and ordinary people would not come when they received it. Unexpectedly, Li Mo was stunned, he didn't ask others, and Kim Taeyeon didn't understand the Tao inside, so the two of them came over to step on the field 'openly'.
Kang Youshuo thought for a moment, and then said a few words to Song Kanghao beside him. The latter was also very surprised, and shook his head with a wry smile to greet Li Mo's arrival.
"Hello, Mr. Lee and Miss Kim Tae-yeon." Song Kang-ho greeted him calmly.
"Hello, I enjoyed your performance in "Monster of the Han River"." Li Mo said hello, in fact, this is the only movie he has seen starring Song Kang-ho. If you want to talk about Korean movies, they are still those eighteen forbidden ones to his taste.
In the face of Li Mo's praise, Song Kanghao said modestly, "Mr. Li's "Signal" is very good, and I rarely watch a TV series. ”
"That's a real pleasure for me."
The three chatted casually and walked into the theater together.
Under the leadership of Song Kang-ho, Lee Mo and Kim Tae-yeon met many people together. The old J giants do not show any traces, and Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon are also happy and quiet.
It's about the same time, everything that should come is coming, what shouldn't be coming is coming, and the premiere will start soon.
"Deadly Virus" is different from "Train to Busan", which takes place on a train bound for Busan. But the movie was shot so fast, and it must not be a big production. The male protagonist played by Song Kang-ho is an employee of a company who suddenly sounds an alarm bell in the building before getting off work, and then someone suddenly starts biting... And so the story begins.
Everyone looked at it very seriously, which was a sign of respect for Kang Youshuo.
But Li Mo soon yawned out of boredom, Kang Youshuo's directing level was speechless, and Song Kanghao was also worthy of being an actor-level actor. But after reading the beginning, Li Mo guessed the end.
The old-fashioned, honest and reliable male protagonist leads the uninfected to fight their way out of the encirclement. Among them, the emotional changes of the male protagonist are handled very carefully, and the leading actors' acting skills are very good, the rhythm is a little too slow for Li Mo, and it is not his cup of tea in short.
But after the movie ended, the audience's response was very good.
In order to avoid reporters from troubleshooting them, Lee Mo and Kim Taeyeon quietly left the theater.
In the evening, most of the movie websites or entertainment news media on the Internet said that "Deadly Virus" was a good movie, and Song Kang-ho's performance was great.
The next day, "Deadly Virus" was officially released, but what it received was mixed reviews from the audience.
The good side is probably that Song Kang-ho and other leading actors have great acting skills, and the color of the picture is well handled, etc.
The negative reviews are more focused on the old-fashioned plot, the slow development of the storyline, the protagonist is too good*, and an ordinary white-collar worker suddenly becomes a superman.
On the first day of release, it received about 130,000 moviegoers, which is a good start. However, it did not reach the target of 200,000 people for Shobox and Kang Youshuo.
The next day, it rose slightly to 170,000 people...
On the third day, it eerily dropped to 150,000 people...
On the fifth day of the trial screening of "Train to Busan", a total of 610,000 moviegoers were received. It's a relatively poor grade, as if the cold weather makes the audience reluctant to come out to watch the movie.
Under the unfavorable situation of "Deadly Virus", Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Ulsan and other places began large-scale test screenings.
