Chapter 40: Tomb Robbery Premiere
In the end, Carl chose Brandon's line at the end of the film: From now on, you are only allowed to love me alone, you must spoil me, you can't lie to me, you must do everything you promise me, you must be sincere in everything you say to me, you must not bully me, scold me, believe me, others bully me, you have to come out to help me as soon as possible, I am happy, you have to accompany me to be happy, I am not happy, you have to make me happy, you will always think that I am the most handsome, you will see me in your dreams, there is only me in your heart.
If this sentence is in 2011, it will definitely make people feel numb and vulgar, but when it first came out in 02, I don't know how many people laughed, and I don't know how many people were touched, I believe that in 95 it can still exert the power that just appeared in 02. Moreover, in order to achieve a better funny effect, Liang Xiaolong gave Brandon this line that should have been Rachel to form a reversal, which can definitely thunder a large group of people.
Sure enough, this sentence caused a strong resonance among young people as soon as it came out, especially on campus, when boys show love like girls, girls will say: "From now on, you are only allowed to love me alone, you must spoil me, you can't lie to me, you must do everything you promise me, you must be sincere in every word you say to me, you are not allowed to bully me, scold me, believe me, others bully me, you have to come out to help me as soon as possible, I am happy, you have to accompany me to be happy, I am not happy, you have to coax me to be happy, You will always feel that I am the most beautiful, and you will see me in your dreams, there is only me in your heart, can you do it? ”
If the boy dares to say no, he will definitely be kicked away by the girl, and if the boy says yes, the girl continues to ask, "Can you repeat what you just said?" The boy was embarrassed: "Baby, I didn't hear clearly, can you repeat it again?" If a girl really wants to have a relationship with a boy, she will repeat it, and if she just plays with the boy, she will feign anger and say: "If you don't hear it clearly, you can say that you can do it, there is no sincerity at all, get out!" ”
Not only young men and women, but also many middle-aged couples also have a strong resonance because of this sentence, recalling their life before and after marriage, their husbands often sigh: "Wife, I'm sorry, I've been busy with my career all these years and have neglected you." The wife sighed: "Husband, I also have something wrong, I should tell you I'm sorry." The husband said, "Then for the sake of this family, let's re-manage love with our hearts, okay?" The wife nodded in agreement: "Then after the release of "The Police and the Thief", we will go to the cinema together, just like when we first fell in love." ”
The power of classics is endless, the former sentence laughed at half of Americans, and the latter sentence moved half of Americans, and the public's call for "Police and Thieves" is getting higher and higher, but when they saw that the film would only be released in 1000 theaters, fans couldn't help but be anxious, only 1000 theaters, what should I do if I can't buy tickets at that time? Many people immediately went to the cinema to ask for tickets for "The Cops and Thieves", but the film will not be released for a month, how can they buy tickets? However, those movie theater owners who have released "The Police and the Thieves" grinned, according to this situation, there is no need to worry about the box office, maybe there will be a full house, and the share will not be less at that time.
Carl's publicity plan has also attracted the attention of major companies, and the publicity effect of two sentences is comparable to the effect of tens of millions of publicity expenses of other companies, and major companies have to consider whether to add a few classic lines to future films, and then use this as publicity? Of course, the most excited person is Carl, who has created a new form of publicity, which the media also named 'Carl Stream', which is an edict for his success in his career, and I believe that people will remember Carl for many years to come.
Of course, the most dissatisfied is Kayla: "I invented it, it should be called Kayla Stream." Liang Xiaolong said with a smile: "Carl didn't settle accounts with you, you should be secretly happy, I'm embarrassed to say it." The little girl smiled slyly: "I fulfilled him, he should thank me, and I will let him treat him tomorrow." Liang Xiaolong shook his head and smiled bitterly, pinching her little face: "Sure enough, the skin has thickened." ”
Liang Jin and Ye Ying have no opinion on moving into the presidential suite, they also have a net worth of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, and their material life is very superior, what kind of suite have they not lived in? The only thing that makes Ye Ying regret is that there are no kitchenware here, and she still wants to cook a few home-cooked dishes for her son, after all, the dishes she makes are more suitable for her son's appetite. In this regard, Liang Xiaolong couldn't help laughing and said: "Mom, why don't you give your family's property to your subordinates, move to the United States, and cook for me every day." Ye Ying pinched his ears: "Your father doesn't dare to let me be a housewife, but you are bold." Liang Xiaolong hurriedly said: "Isn't this a mother who loves her son, otherwise she would dare to grow such guts." Ye Ying said with a smile: "The kung fu of patting sycophants is getting better and better, and I don't know who to learn from." Liang Xiaolong affirmed: "I learned it from my father." Liang Jin immediately gave him a violent shudder: "Your father and I won't be as unproductive as you." ”
The elders on both sides were also very happy to talk in detail, because if they want to be children and daughters, they must always have some understanding of each other, family background, economic income, and cultural tendencies are all about it, Kayla stuck out her tongue while listening, and whispered in Liang Xiaolong's ear: "This posture is too terrifying, I should not fall in love in the future." Liang Xiaolong glanced at her, he didn't fall in love yet, and when he got older, see if you could withstand the loneliness of a person.
On 10.31, the premiere of "Tomb Robbery" was held as scheduled, and it will be released tomorrow in 3,650 filmmakers in North America. Now it is different from the past, Bruce Leung has gained a lot of fame and has also become a favorite of the media, Disney will not let him come by himself, take care of himself, but walk through the red carpet with the crew and build momentum for the film together, in fact, Bruce Leung prefers to come by himself, because walking the red carpet makes him feel like a dog on the catwalk, as if the success or failure of the box office depends on the hairstyle, clothing, jewelry and so on of the stars that night.
The theater was already full of fans, who were holding signs in their hands to cheer for their favorite stars, and Liang Xiaolong also saw a lot of signs with his name written on them, which was a treatment that he had never had at the previous two premieres, and it also proved Liang Xiaolong's current box office appeal. The lights are dimmed, and the trailer is playing, there are beautiful desert evening scenes, glorious and spectacular pyramids, mummies that can fly and jump, and exciting battles, after watching these shots, Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but clench his fists, this is a "Tomb Robbery Maze" that is different from the previous life, can its quality exceed the original? Can it achieve the same high box office?
Liang Xiaolong has no bottom in his heart, because he has not seen the film either, and only when the premiere is over can he witness the quality of the film with fans. But this is also what he wants, since he can't see new films for the time being, let's watch different old movies, otherwise he, a veteran fan whose life is inseparable from movies, really can't live.
The wonderful trailer received warm applause from the audience, and the next Egyptian dance gave fans a further taste of the profound Egyptian culture, and the host slowly came to the stage and said sullenly: "What a beautiful dance, I almost forgot that I still have to host the show." The fans smiled cooperatively, and the host said: """Tomb Robbery" was criticized when the filming started, but the crew did not give up, they went deep into the desert and drifted to Egypt, and worked hard for three months to complete the shooting, and then after two months of post-production, they can finally meet you today." Now, let's ask the heroes and heroines to come on stage and let them talk about what kind of roles they play, including Brandon and Rachel. ”
When the two of them came on stage, the host said: "Ladies first, Rachel, what kind of role do you play in Eve?" Rachel said, "The librarian in an adventure action movie." The host slapped his forehead and said in a helpless tone: "The librarian in an adventure action movie, that must be a bad librarian, please look at the big screen." Eve was sorting out the books, the ladder suddenly collapsed, the circular bookshelves were all damaged, and the curator walked in, with a terrible face: "Oh my God, I'd rather have locusts, termites, and rats than you, and these disasters are pediatric compared to you." ”
The audience burst into laughter, and Rachel couldn't help but smile wryly: "Yes, I have to admit, I'm a terrible librarian." The host asked Brandon again: "Handsome guy, what kind of role do you play?" Brandon said, "I'm a brilliant adventurer. The host said, "No, you're a bad adventurer, don't you believe it?" Look at the big screen. "The screen shows O'Connor facing the garrison in the City of the Dead, his boss fled, his men also fled, and then he was sent to the gallows, and the editing of these clips was not edited according to the course of the film, it has formed a small story, O'Connor betrayed his relatives and was sentenced to be hanged. Seeing such a clip, Brandon could only smile bitterly: "It seems that I am really a bad adventurer, and a good adventurer will not be sent to the gallows." ”
The host smiled: "It seems that director Stephen and editor Liang Xiaolong deliberately portrayed you as harlequins, so I will give you a chance to accuse them and vent all your dissatisfaction with them." Brandon said: "If you want to say that you are dissatisfied, there must be something, and it is enough to have one person in the crew pointing fingers, not to mention that there are two of us in the crew." Rachel agreed: "We can understand that the director is yelling on the set in order to save production costs, but someone is not a director, so it's okay to just follow the blind compliment." The host smiled: "I think I know who it is, Xiaolong, everyone has an opinion on you, then I will also give you a chance to defend yourself." ”
Liang Xiaolong didn't expect these two people to join forces to fix him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Am I not preparing to be a director?" So let's learn the skills of field conducting from Stephen. The host smiled: "Then Xiaolong, you are also a good and hardworking boy." After a pause, the host added: "Next, we invite John, Arnold and Odd to the stage and let them say what role they played in the film." ”
Because the cast is relatively large, the entertainment effect of the interaction is excellent, and while winning the laughter of the fans, the actors have also gained good popularity. Finally, when the film starts to play again, Liang Xiaolong retreats to the audience and sits with his parents, but his heart can't always be calm, what is the quality of this film that he has revised and acted as the action director himself? Will fans still cheer for it for a while?
