Chapter 183: Strong Repercussions

Chapter 183: Strong Repercussions

Walking through the red carpet and entering the interactive session, a short press conference was added, and in the face of reporters' questions, Liang Xiǎo Long talked about it, when the reporter asked whether "Million Dollar Baby" could surpass "My Captain My Group" at the box office, and when Ji was alive and dead in the box office market, Liang Xiǎo Long said: "The box office is affected by various factors, and I can only say that I don't know." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But I can also say for sure that "Million Dollar Baby" is definitely a good film, whether it is the story of the film, or the picture, it has been injected with a lot of effort from everyone in the crew, as long as you watch it, you will definitely like him. ”

"Can it survive the box office market?" The Chicago Sun reporter was obsessed with this question, and he really wanted Liang Xiǎo Long to shout as loudly as the arrogant Japanese to live the box office market, so that he could hype it up in the newspaper if he didn't dare to succeed or fail.

"It can only be said that there is a certain possibility." Liang Xiǎo Long adheres to the golden mean, he doesn't want to be like the arrogant Japanese, blocking his back roads, and now he is still hiding in Japan and does not dare to come to the United States.

"Damn, didn't you say young and frivolous?" The Chicago Sun reporter cursed secretly, and then asked in a detour: "Captain, as we all know, your ability to estimate the box office is unmatched, so, can you estimate the box office of "Million Dollar Baby"?" ”

"It should be no problem to save the capital at the box office." Liang Xiǎo Long is not a dumbfounder, and it also takes 400 million at the box office to protect the capital, and the box office of "Saving Private Ryan", which is the highest box office this year, is only $4.8, which is not something you can get if you want to.

The Los Angeles Times asked Tom about it. Hanks: "Tom, you're the only actor in Hollywood history who thinks he's won an Oscar, why did you choose "Million Dollar Baby"? Tom shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "I think, this shouldn't be a problem, in Hollywood, everyone knows that the captain is the best at creating the role Sè, and at the Oscars, the role created by the captain Sè won the best actor in the lead role and the best actor in the supporting role, isn't it the best proof?" The Los Angeles Times reporter smiled slyly and hurriedly asked, "So Tom, do you have the confidence to take the third bottle of Xiǎo Jinren?" ”

Tom was stunned when asked, who would dare to say that he had 100% confidence in taking the Oscar Xiǎo Golden Man? Even Cameron didn't dare to say that he was necessarily the best director before the lottery was drawn, because last year his opponents were just as strong. However, Tom quickly reacted and said with a smile: "Who doesn't want xiǎo golden people, but I think this problem is still a headache for the Oscar organizing committee." ”

Liang Xiǎo Long and Tom's answers are watertight, and the New York Times reporter cleverly turns her gaze to Hillary, who has made her the least experienced? He asked: "Hillary, how do you feel about taking over the filming of "Million Dollar Baby"? Hillary smiled confidently: "First of all, it's excitement, you know, the captain hasn't failed in the film so far, and Million Dollar Baby will not be an exception." Secondly, I was tired, in order to create visual perfection, the crew went to three countries, filmed in many places, and there were a lot of scenes, I felt a little unbearable. ”

"I thought you were in good shape." Liang xiǎo dragon appropriately chā mouth made a joke.

After a brief press conference, it immediately turned to the interactive session, through the interaction with the host, the atmosphere of the scene was immediately raised to the highest point, and Hillary also told an interesting story: "When the captain called me, he said this: Hello, I am Santa Claus, please ask what gift you want this year, I can arrange it in advance." The host smiled and asked, "So, do you feel like you received a gift today?" Hillary laughed, "Of course, Million Dollar Baby is my best gift." ”

Liang Xiǎo Long continued: "You don't know, she hung up my phone at that time, and then I called again, and he said this: Santa Claus, you are giving gifts every year, and today I will give you gifts, what gift do you want?" I'm so good to prepare in advance. The host asked, "So, did you receive a gift?" Liang Xiǎo Long said: "Yes, that's what I said at the time, I need an actor, can you send it?" As a result, I found the most bāng actors. ”

After the interactive session, the film began to be officially broadcast, and Liang Xiǎo Long had already memorized the film in his heart, and almost every detail was deeply imprinted in his mind. Therefore, at the premiere, he did not pay more attention to the film, but observed the audience's reaction, and if the audience attending the premiere could be satisfied, then the box office was basically guaranteed.

Under the adaptation of Liang Xiǎo Long, the story takes place in a futuristic world, with the aging boxing coach Frankie. Dunn has dedicated almost his entire life to martial arts. Many of the most powerful fighters in the boxing world have benefited from his selection. Nothing in his life was more important than the never-ending martial arts lessons and meticulous martial arts theory. And one of the most important of his theories is that protecting oneself always comes first.

Excessive dedication to his career makes Frankie's relationship with NV like that of a passerby. At the same time, this has also become a lingering shadow in the hearts of the elderly. For a long time, he lived a life of extreme autism. Frankie's only friend, Skyp, was also a martial artist. For the past 23 years, they've been doing pretty much the same job every day. Aside from running Frankie's gym, Skyp is the one who knows him best. Only he knew that the fiery heart beneath Frankie's hard, cold exterior had always been looking forward to forgiveness and redemption.

Maggie. Fitzgerald is a strong-willed NV person who understands her goals and knows how to go about achieving them. Her desire to prove herself to the world led her to enter Frankie's martial arts gym. The moment Maggie appeared, the fate of the two protagonists began to quietly reverse. After the bend, Maggie's innate talent and unshakable belief eventually moved the stubborn Franki, who decided to help Maggie become an NV boxer at all costs......

The day and night in the training, coupled with the mutual enlightenment of each other's past encounters, made the master and apprentice more and more tacit. In the process of pursuing their dreams and surpassing themselves, they find a cure for the wounds of the past together. What makes the two feel extremely relieved is that they have found a long-lost sense of belonging like relatives in each other. There will be no more memories of defeat and pain in this struggle between reason and courage, even if Maggie dies in the end.

"Cool, so cool" has just been played, and the city made of steel makes the young Shadow Mi whisper, this kind of architecture that only exists in the future society has a strong visual impact on anyone. In particular, the attics suspended in the air made through special effects technology are a little more realistic than the space battleships in space blockbusters, which makes people feel enjoyable when they look at it.

When Frankie pestered the priest like a routine and kept asking those boring and crazy questions, many of them laughed and thought, "It seems that boredom is also divided into realms, and I am still too far behind in a realm like Frankie." But more shadows don't say a word, they think more, why portray such a person? What role does such a person play in the film? Also, in reality, who would be bored to this extent?

Frankie is a boring person, but through his boredom, he can see his sadness, his own children ignore it, and he is old and lonely, he can only do these boring things to contain the sadness in his heart. Especially when the fighter who had been trained for eight years betrayed him, his life simply entered a gray period. Eight years, how many eight years can there be in life? But that's the end of it.

The characters have been brought out, the story has entered the plot, Maggie's appearance makes the audience's eyes shine, she is not a standard beauty NV, but she is full of the simplicity, honesty and courage of the bottom characters. But in fact, she is also a sad person, her mother is a hillbilly of more than 300 pounds, her sister is cheating, her brother is in prison, eating leftover steaks from guests, just to save money to practice martial arts, and on her birthday night, she is still kicking and punching bags alone, and she has to be rejected by Frankie over and over again. But every rejection can't make her give up, it only makes her more persistent.

"I feel like she's like xiǎo strong." An American filmmaker who had watched "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" suddenly remembered the word 'xiǎo strong'. What is xiǎo strong? It comes from the public and has super tenacious perseverance that cannot be defeated or dragged down. And Maggie is such a person, who is rejected and continues to come; Say she can't do it, then train harder...... It's really a living thing.

With Skyp's help, Frankie finally agrees to become Maggie's martial arts coach, and so the training begins, and the visual feast begins. Shunan Bamboo Sea, Wudang Taoist Temple, Kung Fu Action, Mountain Road Parkour...... Every scene is loud and unforgettable.

"This is simply a combination of beauty" Mark praised from the bottom of his heart, as a filmmaker, he understands more profoundly, this is not to perform jingcai movements in a beautiful environment, but to perfectly combine the actions with the environment, almost the realm of heaven and man. In this respect, these scenarios are close to perfect.

"If you look at it from an action point of view, it may not be as good as "Black Fist", but once you integrate the action and the environment, it surpasses "Black Fist" too much." Shirley also sighed lightly, two years ago, "Black Fist" was hailed as the pinnacle of action movies, and two years later, Liang Xiǎo Long is about to create a pinnacle again.

"In terms of performance, it is so delicate that it is almost natural." Mark sighed lightly again, a movie is a play, but he can also get rid of the play, but this is very demanding for the actor. If you want to perform a good role sè, you must first let yourself enter the inner world of this corner sè, but people are people, and horn sè is horn sè, so there must be an element of performance. But in this play, what you see is as if you are living in reality.

"The most rare thing is that such a performance method does not contradict the strong visual impact at all, and is naturally integrated." Shirley couldn't help but sigh, this is the director's skill, but Liang Xiǎo Long has only debuted for a few years, and he has such directing ability, and in a few years, he will inevitably become a big tree covering the sky in Hollywood.

"There is also the music of the film, which fully expresses the environment, action, and character psychology, which is too rare." Although Marco knew that the music was written by Jerry and would not be bad, he did not expect it to be such perfect music.

The day and night in training, coupled with each other's past attainments, made the master and apprentice more and more tacit, and also comforted the two sad hearts, and the pain was leaving them. Everything seems to be going in a good direction.

"Cool, so cool" is about to begin, a watch designed by Weta Digital Studio that can be used to connect to a virtual network has appeared, futuristic shapes, and special features. Many people are already thinking that after the film is released, Yanhuang Film Company will definitely launch a series of watches, and they must buy one when the time comes.

In fact, Yan Huang Film Company has long reached an agreement with a watchmaker and has already produced a large number of watches, which will be released when the film is released. Carl once budgeted that if the film could grossing more than $600 million, the profits from the release of the watch alone would recoup all the investment.

Moreover, since it is to create a film that perfectly integrates art and commerce, it will not only be the watch, but also the special boxing gloves and costumes in the film, which are all good profit plates. This is also the first time that Liang Xiǎo Long has incorporated so many commercial elements into a film.

A game is a visual feast, and aside from the level of action, the special effects created by the computer alone are enough to make people marvel. The scene is beautiful, and there are spectators floating in the air in various poses...... It is definitely a precedent for Hollywood, and it can even be said that Liang Xiǎo Long has created a new technical indicator.

Yes, this is a completely new technical indicator, and it is certain that in the future, there will be many films that imitate this special effects treatment. And this one treatment is enough to make Liang Xiǎo Long leave a strong mark in the history of Hollywood.

The victories, the mutual comfort of the two hearts, and the delicate techniques also allow the audience to taste them carefully when they are addicted. However, things are not always perfect, just when everyone is almost forgetting that the virtual network is not sound and can kill people, the accident happens, Maggie is attacked by that despicable opponent with extremely despicable means, and the result is that the nerves in the spine are stabbed so violently that the nerves are necrotic and paralyzed for life.

The sudden change of hexagram made the shadows all exclaim, and then, they were confused, how could this be? It was only then that they remembered that the virtual network was unstable, and all the good things were lost in this despicable sneak attack, and the reality left them with more sadness.

Especially when Maggie's hillbilly fat mother, brother who was released from prison, and sister of power appeared, it added a layer of gray to the film. This group of people did not bring the warmth of family affection to the film, but only the despicability of human xing, which almost made Maggie feel loveless.

But because of this, the love between Frankie and Maggie became even more precious, and it was not until after Maggie was amputated that he gave him a dose of yào on the road. But she didn't die painfully, she left very peacefully, because she realized her dream, she found true love, and she had no regrets.

The story has finally come to an end...... The scene was silent for a long time, and they were all enjoying and reflecting on the information brought to them by the film. There is no doubt that the amount of information in this film is very huge, such as the super audio-visual tension, which can almost be compared with "Titanic"; For example, the inspirational plot, whether Maggie's process of realizing her self-worth is worth learning; For example, the steel city in reality is a city that will not see green sè in the future; For example, if the players are competing and the audience is watching, is it a general view of the class of the future society...... There are too many, but the most important thing is the word "love......

Liang Xiǎo Long saw that many people had tears in the corners of their eyes, which were tears that were moved, which also showed that the film was successful.

After a few minutes, I don't know who woke everyone up with the applause first, and then there was a thunderous applause, they didn't care that the slap would hurt, they just wanted to thank Liang Xiǎo Long, Tom, Hillary and Morgan for bringing them such a brilliant film with the warmest applause.

"Captain, congratulations." Mark walked over first and hugged Liang Xiǎo Long: "This is a great work. ”

"Haha......" Liang Xiǎo Long laughed heartily, "Million Dollar Baby" is a great work, after being adapted, although it incorporates more commercial elements, it retains its original artistic atmosphere, and it is also a great work. The reaction of the live audience speaks for itself.

"It seems that the dull box office market is going to be brought to life, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief." Shirley also said with a smile that although it is October, there are still four films that have not been released for Pyra Méng, one of which is "Sui and Tang Heroes 2" with a large investment of 80 million US dollars, as long as the box office market is alive, she is confident that she will get good results.

"yes, we can all breathe a sigh of relief." Mark also sighed, thinking that "The Mummy Returns" could earn more than $500 million at the box office like the previous two, but the truth was very disappointing. Although the final box office has not yet come out, it can be seen that it will definitely not exceed $450 million: "If you knew earlier, "The Mummy Returns" should have been postponed. ”

"Are you counting on another madness of Crazy 97?" Liang Xiǎo Long smiled: "Don't be too optimistic, the box office market is so low now, it's not like a good film can survive, maybe if "Titanic" is released now, it may not be able to open the box office market." "Yes, compared to Mark and Shirley, Liang Xiǎo Long is a little less optimistic, the economic crisis has poisoned the world too much, and now more people are busy for work and livelihood, and watching movies is about to become a luxury.

"You'll find out the day after tomorrow." Shirley said with a smile that the film will be officially released tomorrow, and the box office on the first day can sometimes see a lot of things. There is also the comments of the major media tomorrow, which will also have a great impact on the box office.
