In fact, after the end of the Venice Film Festival, the promotion of "Invasion of Darkness" on the Internet began, and major portal forums, communities, and post bars were full of promotional posts.

The content of the propaganda basically revolves around the fact that "Dark Invasion" is terrifying and scary, ""Dark Invasion" scared the president of the Venice Film Festival into the hospital", ""Dark Invasion" scared people to death in Venice" and so on.

At first, it was the water army that the signal flag was looking for to post, but it soon turned into a spontaneous act, and not only the big forums were full of posts about "Dark Infestation", but even the inconspicuous small forums were fallen. Rumors are always widely circulated, not to mention that the news of "Invasion of Darkness" is not exactly a rumor.

After two months of fermentation, the expectations of "Dark Invasion" on the Internet are already very high, and at this moment, as soon as the news that the premiere of "Dark Invasion" will be broadcast live on the movie channel, almost all entertainment sections are discussing this matter.

"The premiere is going to be broadcast live on the movie channel, it's so exciting, I will definitely go to the cinema to watch it when the movie is released!"

"I like Cheng Peng, I will definitely go to see it!"

"Barleys, good news, the premiere of "Invasion of Darkness" on the night of the 16th will be broadcast live on the movie channel, Ziyi will be there, don't miss it!"

"I want to go to the cinema to support Ziyi, but I'm afraid to watch horror movies, I heard that they are scared to death, what should I do?"

"The scary footage has been cut out, it's not that scary, go see it!"

"Binbin is really going to be popular this year, first "No Thieves in the World", and then "Invasion of Darkness", everyone must go to the cinema to support Binbin!"

Of course, due to the close schedules of "Invasion of Darkness" and "No Thieves in the World", a big war between fans is inevitable.

"The box office of "No Thieves in the World" is about to be 50 million, and "Dark Invasion" can't catch up, looking forward to "No Thieves in the World" killing "Dark Invasion"!"

"Bah, Cheng Peng's overseas copyright to "Dark Invasion" was sold for $12.5 million, and the highest record for your little steel cannon in North America is $646 for "Big Shot". You! ”

"Hahaha, really? $646, that's outrageous! ”

"Of course it's true, I don't believe you go to IMDB to check, this is a record of Chinese films, and it is estimated that no one will break it in the future!"

"Neurotic, Chinese movies are better than the North American box office, and they have the ability to compare with the domestic box office, and they will blow Cheng Peng into scum at the box office of any movie!"

"Cheng Peng can get a box office of 20 million when he makes a small-budget literary film, can your little steel cannon do it? Have the ability to let your little steel cannon make a literary film. Get a high box office and come out again! ”

……

Journalists look at issues from a different angle than the average viewer. They find it a little incomprehensible. Even Zhang Yimou's "Ambush on All Sides" was not broadcast live on the movie channel, how could Cheng Peng He De be able to get the opportunity to broadcast live, what is the inside story here?

I have to say that the reporters' doubts are justified, even if the movie channel later ran the program "Premiere". There are still only a handful of premieres that can be broadcast live, and there are only a few such as "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" and "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party".

Of course, the movie channel also has its own reasons, the producer of the column explained: "The premiere of "Invasion of Darkness" is different from other premieres, the premieres of other films are mainly based on introducing films, while "Invasion of Darkness" will show a lot of technology, which is beneficial to Chinese films, and we hope that more people can understand these advanced technologies and concepts!" ”

At the same time, the strong performance of "No Thieves" continues. On December 10, the box office reached 50 million; In the following weekend, he took 20 million yuan, and the box office exceeded 70 million on December 13, including 13 million yuan in Beijing, 7 million yuan in Modu, and 12 million yuan in Lingnan.

On the next 14th, the 15th "No Thieves in the World" did not weaken at all, and the trend was strong. There is almost no suspense to break through 100 million in this state!

This makes everyone who cares about "Invasion of Darkness" a little worried, can "Invasion of Darkness" withstand this pressure?

At 7 p.m. on December 16, the front of the CPPCC auditorium was already crowded with media and fans.

There are many stars who attended the red carpet, including Zhang Ziyi, Xu Jinglei, Li Binbin, the leading actors of "Dark Invasion", as well as many stars who participated in the audition of "Myth", Huang Xiaoming, Chen Kun, Liu Ye, etc., of course, Zhang Xinzhe, Chen Huilin, etc., who were invited to participate in the performance, etc.

The whole red carpet ceremony was star-studded, earning enough film for media reporters, and the intense flashing lights lit up the entire night sky.

When the time pointed to 8 o'clock, Jin Wei, the host of the movie channel, walked onto the stage with the eyes of everyone expecting to announce the start of the premiere of "Invasion of Darkness".

After a brief opening remark, director Cheng Peng was first invited to the stage to introduce the film and talk about the inspiration at the beginning of the creation of the script.

The host Jin Wei asked: "Did you encounter any difficulties during the filming?" ”

Of course, the topics are all designed, Cheng Peng nodded with a smile: "There are many difficulties, the most troublesome thing is that the actors' schedules are particularly tight, for example, Li Binbin's scene has not been filmed yet, and another crew asked her to join the group, so we have to find a way to solve this problem!" ”

"How did you solve it in the end, it was to coordinate the schedule with the other party, right?"

"Because the other party's schedule is also very tight, they don't agree to coordinate the schedule, there is no other way, we can only find other actors to play the later scenes!"

"Will this work? It's hard to find an actor who looks exactly like Lee Binbin! ”

"There is no time to look for it, and where to find the exact same person, we can only make a mask of Li Binbin through makeup, and let other actors wear masks to act, and Tong Liyu's figure is closer to Binbin, so we asked her to complete the rest of the scenes on behalf of Binbin!"

"Will this work?"

"Okay, I won't know until I see it, I invite Li Binbin and Tong Liyu to come to the stage!"

The media and the audience at the scene were cheering and applauding to welcome the two beauties to the stage, but the applause and cheers were quickly replaced by exclamations, because everyone did not see Tong Liyu, only saw two identical Li Binbin, wearing costumes from the movie, walking on the stage.

The reporters and spectators at the scene were stunned!

The audience in front of the movie machine was also stunned!

How is this possible?

The host Jin Wei covered his mouth and said dumbfounded: "Is there one of these who is Tong Liyu?" No way, it's too much of a resemblance! I know Binbin has an older sister, this can't be Binbin and her sister, right? ”

"Nope. It's Binbin and Yaya! Cheng Peng smiled, looked at the audience and said, "Is there an audience at the scene who likes to be polite?" Next, please invite a few audience members who like to be polite to come to the stage, I will see if you can recognize which one is Yaya, which one is polite, please raise your hand if you want to go on stage! ”

Looking at those fans who raised their hands, Cheng Peng pointed to three men and three women. Soon, the six people all walked onto the stage with excitement on their faces, and they were all very excited to be able to go on stage and communicate with their idols.

Jwell conducted a brief interview with them. Ask them what they think of Li Binbin. Which role she plays the most. When asked about the last female fan. She said a little shyly: "Actually, I'm a fan of Cheng Peng, Cheng Peng, can I hug you?" ”

The female fan's face was crimson, and her voice was a little low. But the audience at the scene could hear it clearly, causing a huge cheer.

Cheng Peng didn't expect to come up with a fan of his own, and he had to hug himself, he still vividly remembered the scene of a female fan fainting, if he fainted again, it would be troublesome, but now it is a live broadcast and he can refuse, otherwise everyone will say that he is playing a big name, and nodded with a smile: "Yes!" ”

The female fan looked excited. In countless eyes of envy, jealousy and hatred, she hugged Cheng Peng, she hugged Cheng Peng's waist tightly with both hands, and she was so happy that she almost fainted.

Next, it is the link to distinguish which one is Li Binbin.

A special effects artist is not a magician. It is impossible to really turn Tong Liyu into Li Binbin, there must be a difference, so Cheng Peng asked everyone to stand two meters away to identify, which is a little difficult.

After some identification, four lucky spectators thought that the left was Li Binbin, and two thought that the right was Li Binbin.

Cheng Peng handed the microphone to Li Binbin on the left, and said with a smile: "You can introduce yourself!" ”

The one on the left said: "Hello everyone, I'm Li Bingbing!" ”

The one on the right said: "Hello everyone, I'm Tong Liyu!" ”

The voices of the two are different, it is indeed the voices of Li Bingbing and Tong Liyu.

Jin Wei came to Tong Liyu's side, looked at her curiously, and asked, "Yaya, can I touch the mask on your face?" ”

"Yes, you can!"

Jin Wei stretched out his hand and touched it, and let out an exclamation: "It's exactly the same as the real skin, I can't tell it at all, it's amazing." Yaya, can I take the mask off? ”

"Yes!" As he spoke, Tong Liyu put his hand into the collar, picked at his shoulder, grabbed the edge of the human skin mask, and slowly lifted it.

When the entire mask was removed, the audience at the scene and the audience in front of the TV were amazed, it was really Tong Liyu, but the hairstyle was weird, and he was a big back!

Jin Wei said in an unbelievable tone: "Have you seen it, this is simply a big change, it's amazing, it's like the plot in a martial arts novel, it's too godly!" ”

The premiere continued, and the leading actors of the film took the stage one after another, telling some interesting stories during the shooting, accompanied by tidbits during the shooting, and the scene laughed continuously; In addition to that, the team behind the film showed a lot of new things, such as DIT, which was an eye-opener.

Of course, singing and dancing performances are inevitable, and heavyweight singers in the Chinese music scene Li Zongsheng, Zhang Xinzhe, Chen Huilin, Adu, S.H.E, Pu Shu, Han Hong and others have taken the stage to sing, making the atmosphere very strong all the time, so that the audience at the scene and in front of the TV enjoy an audio-visual feast.

The ninety-minute premiere ended with applause and exclamations, and the film was about to begin.

Cheng Peng leaned back in his chair, looked at the big screen in front of him, took a breath, and said to himself: "It's about to start!" ”

He was a little nervous, "Invasion of Darkness" was originally a horror film, and everyone thought so, but now the version of horror scenes released has been deleted too much, plus the content of the reshoot, and now "Invasion of Darkness" has become a psychological thriller, how many viewers can understand it, and how many viewers can accept it, this is a question!

At this time, the lights in the auditorium went out, and the whole hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at the big screen in front of them, waiting for the movie to start.
