Chapter 32 Screening (Ask for Collection Recommendation)
The scene dimmed, only the light of the big screen reflected the faces of the audience, Lin Han and Yang Yi sat in the front row of the theater, with Tim Burton and Anne Hathaway on the left, Matt Damon on the right, and the leading actors of the movie in the back.
Lin Han has naturally watched the finished film before, so he is more prepared to see the audience's reaction, as for Yang Yi, he is a little excited, yes, not afraid, this girl seems to be very bold? This sex is so different, Lin Han likes it very much!
Tim Burton looked at the screen very seriously, he was already curious to see what the horror film directed by the young investor looked like.
As for Matt Damon, he is also watching it very seriously, and the same is true of the leading actors of "Saw", although they are the leading actors, they have never seen the finished film at all!
At the beginning of the movie, Adam is thrown into a bathtub with water, and when he wakes up, he immediately struggles and finds himself in a dilapidated basement......
As the plot of the movie unfolds step by step, the audience's hearts also hang in the air, and from time to time they find exclamations, but sometimes they are silent, and everyone is nervously waiting for the next moment of the plot to develop......
"Chainsaw" is a very bloody and savage movie, which will inevitably make some viewers feel disgusting, but many of the people who came to the scene today are horror movie enthusiasts, and while they are addicted to it, they are also scared out of a cold sweat by the movie, and their nerves have been tense.
Lin Han watched the audience's reaction indifferently throughout the whole process, and he found that none of the audience members had ever gotten up and left their seats, which was a very good start, which meant that the movie was half of its success!
However, accidents often come unexpectedly, and when the movie was about to end, the news media reporters suddenly found a burst of chaos in their seats, and Lin Han calmed down when he saw Edward rushing over to deal with it.
After a while, it was finally quiet, and Edward ran over to tell him that just now, a female reporter fainted due to fright, and he had already asked the staff of Galaxy Pictures to send the female reporter to the hospital!
Lin Han was slightly stunned and then said that he knew about it, in fact, this matter was reasonable to him, and not everyone had a good ability to bear horror movies.
However, such a thing happened at the premiere of "Saw Horror", which cannot be said to be a bad thing, on the contrary, it may also serve as the icing on the cake!
Because when they hear this news, people can't help but think: Is "Chainsaw" really so scary? Someone fainted because of this, no, I have to go and see, I can't say it's a waste of fame, I can come back and complain in the circle of friends after reading it!
In addition to this vignette, the premiere of "Chainsaw" was successfully completed, and after the film was screened, the audience spontaneously applauded.
Subsequently, the audience began to leave the theater one after another, discussing "Chainsaw" with friends while walking, and some anxious audiences were the first thing they did when they left the theater was to share their viewing experience on Twitter, for example, an audience member named David wrote on his Twitter:
"God, Saw is so good! The guys who didn't come to the scene, you will definitely regret it, the scene is full of big names, I not only saw the big director Tim Burton, but also the tough guy Matt Damon, and the beautiful Anne Hathaway, oh, and the Chinese director who made this wonderful movie, very young, I dare say, this guy will be famous in Hollywood in the future! ”
Shortly after David tweeted, his friends replied below.
"Oh, David, just talk about it, don't practice, send out the picture, let me see the big guys too!"
"Oh, I knew my Matt was gone, I should have left this damn job and went to see it too!" It's clear that this is a female Matt Damon fan.
Seeing his friends' comments, David whetted their appetite for a while before posting the photos he had taken at the scene.
Lin Han and Galaxy Pictures did not prohibit the audience from bringing mobile phones or anything at all, the audience in North America is still relatively high, there are people who watch pirated copies, but there are not many, most people will still go into the cinema when they want to watch a movie, or wait for the DVD to come out, buy a DVD and watch it with their families at home!
After the audience left, the news media reporters did not leave immediately, but gathered around Tim Burton, Matt Damon and others.
The question raised by Tim Burton, of course, is about the filming progress of "Batman" or something, and Tim Burton's answer to this is also very official, saying that it is currently under intense filming, and if you want to know more about it, you will definitely be notified when you wait until the publicity stage.
And the reporters around Matt Damon naturally asked him questions about "Spy Shadow", such as Matt Damon's first appearance in a spy movie, such as whether Matt Damon thinks that his "Spy Shadow" can be compared with Tom's "Mission Impossible" and so on.
"Mission Impossible 2" will be released on May 24, and "Spy Shadow" will be released on June 14, with a difference of three weeks.
In this regard, Matt Damon smiled and said modestly: "I hope that Agent Ethan (the agent played by Tom) can give Bourne (the agent played by Matt Damon) a mouthful of soup to drink!" The younger generations will learn more from their predecessors, of course, today, is the home of "Chainsaw", let's mainly talk about "Chainsaw"! This movie is really good, and its director is very young and has a very talented talent, I hope everyone can remember him, because he will definitely appear on your pages often in the future! ”
Matt Damon's words can be said to be full of praise for Lin Han, of course, there is an element of Tim Burton's face, but Matt Damon also thinks that "Chainsaw" is very well filmed, so he does not hide his appreciation, anyway, the sedan chair carries people, and when the director has not really gone out, giving him a little help is much better than congratulating him after he becomes famous!
Over there, Lin Han was not far away, and he vaguely heard Matt Damon's praise for himself, and immediately nodded to him, this old man, he sacrificed his life to save him once in his last life!
Half an hour later, after the reporters got the material they wanted, they left satisfied, of course, before leaving, Lin Han was everyone who sealed a big red envelope, for this, Lin Han's explanation was from the customs of China, an ancient civilization in the East.
When they went back, they found that there was a thin check inside, although the check was thin, the amount was a lot, almost worth half a month's salary, so when the reporters put down the pen, they couldn't help but praise "Chainsaw".
After the reporters left, Lin Han sent away a bunch of big and small Hollywood stars who came to cheer him on, and after agreeing with Matt Damon to have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, Lin Han wiped the sweat on his forehead, which ushered in the work he was sent to, but it was much more tiring than filming!
"Congratulations, there will be a place for you as a first-line Hollywood director in the future! Young people, do your best! Tim Burton took Anne Hathaway and patted Lin Han on the shoulder with a smile, at this time, he said this to Lin Han as a senior in the directorial industry, and did not regard Lin Han as an investor in "Batman".
Lin Han replied modestly: "Where and where, you have won the award, I still have to work hard, I have to study hard from you old-timers!" ”
Tim Burton nodded, and then seemed to remember something, and said to Lin Han: "Oh, by the way, before, in order to obtain the copyright of the adaptation of the comic book character Batman, we paid a million dollars to DC Comics, and I want to sue you for this matter, after all, you are an investor!" ”
Lin Han waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, I know!" Feel free to shoot boldly, and if there is a gap in funds, I can add more! ”
Lin Han's confidence in saying this sentence is because he will be able to get paid again in a few days, and he went up to see it when he was short of money, one after another, including the latest "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", he can receive 20 million remuneration this month, and he has 4 million US dollars anyway!
At the same time, Lin Han also maliciously thought in his heart: If DC Comics knew that the character of Batman would generate billions of dollars in revenue in the future, I don't know if it would regret selling the adaptation rights so cheaply?
After hearing Lin Han's arrogant words, Tim Burton shook his head and said, "The funds are still enough, don't worry, if it's not enough, I will definitely look for you!" ”
After a few more conversations, Tim Burton left with Anne Hathaway, and then Lin Han approached Edward again and wanted to discuss with him about the next screening of "Saw".
The so-called screening is a concept relative to public screening, that is, small-scale screenings are only carried out in individual cities and individual theaters, which is a means of publicity, and at the same time, it can also accumulate a good reputation and build momentum for the film.
After some discussion, Lin Han learned about the arrangements of Galaxy Pictures, and they will conduct small-scale screenings in Los Angeles, New York, Boston and other cities.
After the premiere of "Saw Horror", Lin Han did not stay long, and returned to China on May 2nd, which made Edward quite resentful, he had not lived well enough in the Beverly Hills mansion!
For Lin Han, the mansion is nothing, and the reason why he is in a hurry to return to Huaxia is because Huaxia is also preparing to screen "Chainsaw", but this screening is not the same as a small-scale screening in North America, but a large-scale screening.
Because Huaxia is in the social environment, people's mental maturity is relatively late, so the Huaxia Film Bureau stipulates that the age of the audience for R-rated movies must be 25 years old, which will undoubtedly further reduce the audience of R-rated movies, so Lin Han must conduct large-scale screenings and beat the reputation of "Chainsaw" in advance.
As for the superhero blockbuster "Spider-Man", which will be released on a large scale around the world on May 3, Lin Han knows very well that the young Spider-Man's ability to attract money is very terrifying, and the final global box office of "Spider-Man" is as high as 820 million US dollars!
However, Lin Han has full confidence in "Saw", and believes that "Saw" can take food in the tiger's mouth of Spider-Man!
Because "Saw Horror" is exciting enough, and the genre is fundamentally different from "Spider-Man", "Saw Horror" still has the power to fight, even if it doesn't work, you can wait for the release to talk about it!
Lin Han has considered both success and failure, although he is about to encounter Hollywood blockbusters in the early part of the summer file, but Lin Han feels that this schedule is still good, at least it will be released on June 1, and it has not officially been involved in the fierce competition in the summer file in July.
As a result, Lin Han couldn't help but think of the domestic movies that were rescheduled in the early part of the summer in the future, but this phenomenon has disappeared in this world's Huaxia, and the Chinese blockbusters produced by Huaxia's vast pictures are not afraid to go head-to-head with Hollywood blockbusters.
This is the best era, and Lin Han is confident that he will finally stand at the peak of the era and be proud of the world!
