Chapter 558: Surprise after Surprise [One Update]
Zhou Yimin is luckier than Li Ruoxun, not only because she has been taken care of by Lin Youlun since she entered the entertainment industry, but also because of the general environment of the Hong Kong entertainment industry back then.
At that time, there was a market for all kinds of films, and actresses could come out as long as they had outstanding appearances and made vases for a few years.
Nowadays, the trend of the Hong Kong entertainment industry has changed a lot, although the market is becoming more and more prosperous, but the development of actors is not as easy as in the 80s, mainly because more people have joined the industry, making the competition between actors increasingly fierce.
Now it is not easy for actresses who are slightly more famous to get a vase role in a movie produced by a big company, and the salary is very low.
In the words of a saying circulating in the circle, if the current female stars want to become famous, no one knows them at all if they don't take off or show them. So many actresses who have not become popular before, or who have just entered this circle and are not well-known, are now trying to launch violence. Lu took a photo, paving the way for starring in a tertiary film.
"Yan. The "star" route has actually become a shortcut for Hong Kong female stars to become famous, especially after Ye Yuqing "became famous", many people have followed suit, and in this environment, it is becoming more and more difficult for actresses who don't want to "become famous" to get ahead.
If it were placed in the 80s, the three heroines of "Thunderbolt Girl" would already be popular actresses, and a "Hurricane Rescue" could completely make Li Ruohun popular; Wan Jingwen starred in TV series such as "I Have a Date with a Zombie", which caused a sensation in the ratings, and Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei did not necessarily have a good starting point for entering the film industry; Not to mention that Zhong Liti starred in "Double Dragon Club" with Cheng Long and Zhang Manyu...... The conditions of the three daughters are not bad, but it is a pity that they are in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 90s.
"Hurricane Rescue" certainly has outstanding results. But in this era of large swaths. It does not belong to the most dazzling existence. Li Ruoxun participated in this movie, but he only left a little impression in the hearts of the audience; Although "I Have a Date with a Zombie" broke the highest ratings record of TVB, TVB's TV series ratings are increasing as a whole, and the gap between TV actors and movie actors is getting bigger and bigger. Zhong Liti and Cheng Long starred in a movie, but in 90 years alone, as many as 6 movies starring Cheng Long were released, and it is no longer uncommon to be the heroine of Cheng Long's movies.
A surplus of actors will lead to fierce competition. The fierce competition will give birth to various unspoken rules, and the atmosphere in the circle will naturally become more and more smoky.
This is a problem that will inevitably arise when the entertainment industry develops to a certain extent, and Lin Youlun can't stop it, all he can do is to carry out some reasonable guidance, such as pointing out another route to fame for actresses - to be a beater.
Choosing to be a beating girl is destined to be very hard, but the future development potential and achievements are definitely better than "Yan. There are many more actresses who have become famous, and Lin Youlun's investment in "Breaking Baby" is to make such an attempt.
Zhou Yimin and Li Ruohun got together and talked about some other topics, and it was not until the movie officially started that the two stopped talking.
The first scene that appears on the screen is on a passenger plane on a certain flight. Accompanied by rhythmic jumping background music, a burly man in a wide robe appears in the shot. The picture follows the tall man's back all the way to the first-class cabin.
After the man sat down, the audience finally saw his face, a very unfamiliar face, but it was the thief-eyed guy sitting next to him who caught the audience's attention.
Ordinary audiences may not recognize who this person is, but as long as they have a little in-depth understanding of the Hong Kong film industry, they can recognize the identity of this person - Chen Jiashang, the director of "Breaking Bad".
Chen Jiashang's cameo gave everyone a small surprise, and then the two people on the screen began to connect, the tall man poured a pile of diamonds from the box, and Chen Jiashang showed him the bomb he had strapped to his body.
Seeing this scene, the audience at the scene couldn't help but have such a question in their hearts, did these two people want to hijack the plane?
What happened next greatly surprised everyone's expectations, the tall man suddenly scuffled with Chen Jiashang, and the cabin door was opened, and the tall man jumped off the plane with Chen Jiashang in his arms.
There was a burst of exclamations in the screening room, and although many people knew that the scene of Lu Dao jumping off the plane was filmed in the studio and then synthesized by computer special effects, the sudden turn of events still stimulated everyone's hearts.
The parachute on the tall man's back stopped him from falling, but the criminal played by Chen Jiashang was not so lucky, he roared all the way down, and the bomb tied to his body began to count down.
People who are familiar with Chen Jiashang can't help but look at the place where he is sitting at this time, and everyone thinks that the ending of Chen Jiashang's cameo role in the film has been determined, either falling into the sea and dying, or being killed by a bomb.
At this time, the situation on the screen gave birth to new variables.
Chen Jia's cameo criminals fell rapidly from a high altitude, but a helicopter appeared in the middle, jumped on it, grabbed Chen Jiashang in mid-air, first untied the bomb on his body and threw it aside, a large dazzling fire exploded in the air, and then the person also opened a parachute behind him, and fell into the sea staggeringly.
Only then did the audience suddenly realize that it was not only to relieve the criminals' attempt to bomb the plane, but also to capture this guy alive.
The man who jumped out of the helicopter and captured the bandits was wearing a helmet and could not see his face clearly, but it was supposed to be a woman.
Just when everyone was speculating about which of the three heroines this person would be, a golden speedboat came quickly from the sea, apparently to pick up the two who were parachuting.
When the camera zoomed in, some viewers whispered "wow", and Zhou Yimin covered his mouth with his hands in surprise, because the speedboat was driving on the screen, and it was Li Ruoxun in a swimsuit who drove heroically and quickly.
Feeling that there were several eyes around him looking at him, Li Ruoxun buried his head a little embarrassed.
The audience's eyes soon returned to the big screen, and the parachutist who caught the bandit landed smoothly on the speedboat, and the bandit was so frightened by this unbelievable experience that his face turned pale and yelled, Li Ruoxun turned around with a smile and said to him: "Happy journey!" ”
The parachutist standing beside her took off his helmet, and his long waterfall-like hair swayed in the wind, revealing Wan Jingwen's fresh and beautiful face.
Li Ruoxun smiled at Wan Qiwen, and then looked at the sky.
The tall man who jumped off the plane with the bandits in his arms staggered down with a parachute, and the frightened bandits pointed at him and yelled at him, calling him a madman.
The tall man unfastened his parachute, put his hand on his chest, tore off the human skin model on his head as if he were undressing, and then said to the bandit with contempt: "You guessed it, I'm a crazy woman! ”
Not only the bandits were stunned, but the audience in the cinema was also stunned by this scene, and the way the three delicate babies appeared was more unexpected than the other.
In addition to being stunned, everyone can't help but look forward to the later plot, this is the beginning of the movie, and the later story should be more interesting.
The words "Thunderbolt Baby" were officially typed on the screen, followed by the opening subtitles of the film, during which someone in the screening room whispered.
"Why do I think this is like watching Cheng Long's action movie, that skydive just now is so exciting!"
"Don't be stupid, the filming just now was basically used as a stand-in, do you think the three of them acted in person?" His companion poured cold water on him.
The person who spoke didn't think so, "Who doesn't need a stand-in to act in a movie now?" Cheng Long doesn't need it? ”
The companion refused to show weakness and retorted: "At least Cheng Long has real kung fu." ”
This person laughed and said, "But Cheng Long doesn't look as eye-catching as these three beauties." ”
Now the companion stopped talking, it is true that his requirements just now were a little harsh, and ordinary viewers would not care about these at all.
The surrounding discussion fell into Lin Youlun's ears, he just smiled slightly, it is still too early to assert that "Thunderbolt Baby" will be very popular, but it is certain that the development plan of actresses like "Beauty + Hit Girl" is feasible, which can be seen from the reaction of the surrounding audience.
At the same time, in a very inconspicuous cinema in Yuen Long, Xu Ke and Huang Baiming, who were also watching the premiere of "Breaking Baby", had solemn expressions.
The box office of "Three Heroes of the East" exceeded 25 million, but the release of "Thunderbolt Baby" will definitely have an impact on the follow-up box office of "Three Heroes of the East".
Lin Youlun can get the sample tape of "Three Heroes of the East" directly from Jiayi, but Lin Jianyue can't get the sample tape of the film on the first day of the release of "Breaking Bad", so Xu Ke and Huang Baiming want to see this movie for the first time, only like ordinary audiences, go to the cinema to buy tickets to watch it.
In order not to be discovered by the media, the two dressed up before the trip, and also chose a movie theater in a remote area.
Just watched the beginning of the film, Xu Ke and Huang Baiming already felt full of pressure, "Thunderbolt Baby" does not present a lot of novel ideas like "Three Heroes of the East", but it is very in line with the current trend of commercial films, and more skillfully integrates "beauty" and "action", maybe the movie evaluation will not be as high as "Three Heroes of the East", but the audience will definitely be more willing to watch such a movie.
