Chapter 197: The Search for Alexander

Almost all the people who are worth looking forward to have entered the theater, and it is almost impossible for several other people to appear at the premiere of Phoenix Culture, but the master of ceremonies at the premiere has not announced the end of the red carpet ceremony, as if he is still waiting for some important person.

Reporters are speculating who this person will be next, and the only thing they can think of is Mo Fei, but if Mo Fei comes alone, he must go through another channel, unless there are other important people.

Just when everyone was thinking nonsense, Mo Fei appeared, holding a girl in each hand, the same big eyes, the same goose egg face, the same costumes and costumes, is this the newly signed sister flower actor of Phoenix Culture, or is it someone's child?

Because of all kinds of imagination and Mo Fei's identity, from the time Mo Fei just walked on the red carpet, the shutter sounded, and reporters had never encountered such a scene before.

Mo Fei took the hands of the two girls and whispered to them not to be nervous, the smile on their faces was natural, just like when everyone was playing games at home, these reporters had nothing to fear, the only thing to do at this time was to smile.

After taking photos for a while, the reporters almost used up all the film in their hands before they began to ask questions to Mo Fei, the first thing to be raised was of course the two little girls, Mo Fei's scandals often occur, but this kind of little girl actor is not often there.

"Hehe, you're really right, I brought them here today to answer this question." There are two little Loli by her side, and her expressions in the face of reporters have softened a lot, and she even has a slight smile. said: "These two beautiful little princesses are the newly signed actors of our Phoenix Culture, and they are also the newcomers who will be fully launched in the future." The one on my left. Miss Xu Qing from the mainland, she is also a child star, and has starred in two movies and a TV series before this; The one on my right is Miss Li Zi, I believe some friends have already seen something from her face, yes, she is the granddaughter of Mr. Li Minwei, and Mr. Li's artistic cells have also been perfectly inherited from his granddaughter. Not long ago, she also made a cameo in "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation" in New Art City.

In the movie "Samantha" launched by Phoenix Culture this summer, there will be wonderful performances by the two of them, and they also starred in a campus youth TV series "Sixteen-year-old Flower Season". After a period of cooperation. The innate advantages of the two of them in terms of performance have been clearly demonstrated, and I believe that in the near future, there will be two famous superstars on the rise......"

After talking a lot about the two girls, the reporters finally began to ask Mo Fei questions about the movie "Taiping Mountain". First of all, the first one is Mo Fei's evaluation of this movie.

This movie has always been talked about in previous lives. It's not too much to say that it has endured, but now it is naturally full of confidence, and said: "This movie is invested by Phoenix Culture, and if you say too much, you will definitely think that I am hanging flowers for myself, so I can only say about this movie, I hope this is a good movie that I never get tired of watching, even if I turn it over again after 20 years, I will be moved by this story." ”

"Mr. Mo. Why did this movie use a place name like 'Taiping Mountain' as the title, and is there any meaning in this? ”

"That's a good question!". Is this reporter arranged in advance, could it be a little skeptical, this question is really too good, nodded and said: "What does Taiping Mountain represent in Hong Kong, is success and wealth not, put it in love, it is the representative of the most beautiful love, I can't call a love movie a name like Dakeng and Datan, there is no romantic feeling at all." Another reason, as far as I know, there are two mountains of love, one is the Taiping Mountain, which represents perfect love, and the other is in the United States, and I will make a movie in a few years. ”

"Can you reveal what the name of that mountain in the United States is, and whether it is also a symbol and representative like Taiping Mountain?"

Mo Fei made an expression that he would never tell you, and said: "This is not good, didn't everyone go to shoot it when I said it, then what am I going to do, so I have to sell it first." Okay, it's about to begin, so let's get ready for a movie. ”

……

"Taiping Mountain" is a movie about love, not as funny as comedies, nor as intense as kung fu movies, but it can make the audience devote themselves to it and experience the feeling of loving and being loved in the warm warmth.

Even if there are some laughable scenes in the film, such as when Gao Liang and Anna are lying on the bed with their heads and feet opposite each other after their passion, Anna's line says: "I really can't figure out why men like breasts, half of the world's population, or even more people have things, and my mother also has them, so I should have seen enough, right?" ”

and the hotel waiter who contributed to good things at the end of the film, after being kissed on the cheek by Gao Liang and his friends, a black buddy who didn't know why also rubbed it up and kissed it; and Gao Liang pretending to be a reporter, and the scene of Anna being a waitress.

Such a shot also has the effect of making people laugh, but while the audience is laughing, no one thinks it is too funny to amuse, but feels a kind of happiness, which is one of the charms of this movie.

And when Anna went to the bookstore to give Gao Liang a painting, she was dressed in a very ordinary dress, without gorgeous clothes or star posture, Chu Chu said to Gao Liang pitifully: "I am just an ordinary woman, standing in front of her beloved man, begging him to love her." ”

Gao Liang gave the most realistic answer, saying: "But I am just the owner of a small bookstore facing bankruptcy, and you live in Beverly Hills in Hollywood, and the whole world knows you, but my mother has a hard time remembering my name." The distance between us is like a mortal falling in love with God, and the result is a dead end. ”

This scene made all the audience sigh, the story of the prince and Cinderella was interpreted in a different way, but it also made people have to be moved by this kind of emotion that transcends common sense. Many female viewers left two lines of tears at this moment.

The power of the film produced by Phoenix Culture is once again revealed, even if it is a romance film, it is just as powerful. It grossed more than $2 million in Hong Kong on its first day of release, and continued to soar in the next few days, with the box office firmly surpassing $7 million three days later.

In the North American film market, because there is no film of the same type to compete with, and it is a romance film starring Zhong Chuhong, the box office is just as good, and it has won 19 million US dollars in the first three days of release.

And the film reviews of this movie also shine with the box office. Except for a few media and film critics who have never been at odds with Phoenix Culture, they are deliberately finding fault, and the film reviews are all good.

A film critic in "Film Fortnightly" who seriously studied "Taiping Mountain" commented: "This movie is indeed a good movie that I never get tired of watching, as Mr. Mo Fei said." I've seen it six times, and each time there's a heartwarming feeling that fills people's hearts.

I think even if I watch this movie years later, I still love the old routines and the little details. Still in love with that peaceful life and relaxed atmosphere; And still willing to believe. In such a lively street, there are really so many people who meet like this, and then there are really those love stories that people are willing to taste over and over again.

When you are about to forget about love, go and watch this movie, it will really make you believe that there will be miracles in life, and the advent of love is like an adventure in a movie, maybe you just didn't find it. ”

A film critic in Ming Pao Weekly also commented, saying: "After the film is over, I walked out of the theater. The tone of the ending song echoed in my ears, and it was already raining lightly outside. When I walked through the familiar streets and passed by a park, I suddenly subconsciously looked at a bench, vaguely as if the pregnant heroine was leaning her head on the hero's lap, slightly comparing her eyes, without any complicated thoughts in my heart, leaving only the sound of the hero turning the book in my ears, "Taiping Mountain", which made me so warm but quiet......"

"Oriental Daily" has always had a good high-quality cooperation with Phoenix Culture, so naturally it can't give a bad review, but it is also fair enough: "Mr. Mo Fei said that there are two mountains in love, and this Taiping Mountain represents perfect and happy love, so what will the other one represent, he himself does not say, and we have no way to guess, but I think that everyone has a Taiping Mountain in their hearts, and the top of the mountain is the most beautiful love ......."

Even in the United States, which was released at the same time, the always demanding media had to admit that "Taiping Mountain" is indeed a good movie: "It is undeniable that there are many old-fashioned scenes in the movie, such as the encounter between the hero and heroine because of a glass of juice, and then the actor was doomed to fail several times." Blind date', as well as the actor's dumb loser friend, and the Cinderella-style story setting that everyone is familiar with, which allows the audience to guess what will happen next most of the time, as if there will be reporters and all kinds of long guns and short guns behind that door, and the roommate who is short-circuited is destined to open the door again and add fuel to the fire......

In this way, it seems destined that "Taiping Mountain" can only be a lackluster old-fashioned romance film. But we all seem to have forgotten that love has always been very old-fashioned, and the wonderful can only come from the details, otherwise after Shakespeare, all the descriptions of love are just picking up people's teeth, and they should all be thrown into the furnace and burned.

Some people also say that this movie is more like a contemporary version of "Roman Holiday", but if you think about it, who will not have a lonely time, from members of the royal family to high-ranking government officials and wealthy businessmen, from household names to unknown ordinary people, no one can escape loneliness. In the same way, everyone will have a longing, a desire for intimate and eternal love, just like the picture at the end of the movie, under the shade of the park, enjoying the warm air with the person you love the most, and maybe a Byron poem; Or one morning, leaning over the ear of the person next to him, whispering his heartfelt words, as warm and expectant as the rising sun. ”

However, in addition to the film reviews, another person's name is also deeply remembered by more people with this movie, that is, "Alessandro", the singer of the two film music "From-the-Hear" and "She" of "Taiping Mountain", several record companies in Hong Kong and the United States are looking for this singer, and even called Phoenix Culture to inquire about the singer's contact information.

This incident was also spread in the entertainment industry for a while, and various versions continued to be interpreted, and some people even said that the two songs were actually sung by a famous singer, but under a pseudonym. Only a few people know that the singer "Alessandro", who was mistaken for "Alexander", was actually Mo Fei's Italian name "Alessandro".

Universal Music called twice in a row, wanting to get Alexander's contact information, claiming that he would thank Phoenix Culture again, but Phoenix Culture finally refused on the grounds that "the singer himself does not want to appear in public".

In fact, this can be regarded as a hype that follows the trend, when the singer "Alexander" was spread crazy, the reporting rate of "Taiping Mountain" has increased significantly, and the box office has also jumped again.

This is called the more mysterious, the more it can arouse people's interest, the soundtrack singer of a movie is actively approached by the record company, but is reluctant to show up, as long as they continue to chase this topic, the box office of "Taiping Mountain" will definitely reach a new high.
