Chapter 256: Jim Carrey's help

On the day of its North American premiere, the movie "Detective" was favored by most audiences! Many people in line in the cinema have bought tickets to watch this movie!

Before the movie was released, the North American market continued to report on Zhou Shaoming's movie! In terms of promotional films, Zhou Shaoming spared no effort to invest in this film, promoting it on major local stations in North America, and also promoting it on well-known radio stations such as CBA, the most well-known in the United States!

The movie "Detective" brings together well-known big-name actors in North America such as Avril, Bell, Murphy and Jim Carrey!

When the audience who walked into the theater watched this movie, they always showed a hint of surprise, and the audience couldn't help but be surprised by the content of this movie!

As a suspense movie, Zhou Shaoming added more people's inner activities to this movie, and used the actors' real expressions to express it, no longer letting the audience guess, under the visual impact, it did bring the audience a different experience!

After filming the movie "Detective" in March, Zhou Shaoming led the crew members from Hong Kong to Los Angeles! It took more than a month, and Zhou Shaoming used all the post-processing of the film on this movie!

In fact, for this movie with very few action scenes, the use of computer stunts is extremely rare, but in order to meet the needs of the audience, Zhou Shaoming still added gorgeous stunts to some action scenes in the film, and the fighting effect is far beyond the previous shooting!

For this movie, more dubbing took a lot of time, but this did not affect the time of Zhou Shaoming's team in processing this movie, because there are a large number of Chinese actors in the movie, and the main market for this movie is still in North America!

Zhou Shaoming hopes to show the charm of this movie through more elements, and for the dubbing part, Zhou Shaoming and Supernova Entertainment Film and Television have done a lot of work!

After all, it is a movie that has been released worldwide. When the detective crew returned to Los Angeles, Zhou Shaoming began to post-process the film non-stop!

After the photographer, gaffer and other staff left, Zhou Shaoming left Avril, Bell, Murphy, Jim Carrey and others behind!

The handling of the special effects was handed over to others by Zhou Shaoming, and the dubbing was personally supervised by Benjamin!

Zhou Shaoming edited the film in five days. After a full-length film appeared in front of everyone! Begin the final stunt work on this film!

When Zhou Shaoming returned to Los Angeles, the Los Angeles media and the American media paid great attention to this matter!

During the whole month, Zhou Shaoming rarely appeared in front of the media, and the promotional videos and posters were produced very early! For this movie, Zhou Shaoming's effort is a lot more than other movies he has filmed!

Zhou Shaoming returned to Los Angeles again and came to the Hollywood circle, whether it was the audience or the media. are full of expectations for Zhou Shaoming's movie shot in other places! This expectation is an invisible pressure for Zhou Shaoming!

Whether it's a promotional video, or the tidbits of making a film, in just one month. Zhou Shaoming has been locked in a dark room, constantly thinking, and then finally with everyone's efforts, the premiere began on April 1st!

The theater erupted with all kinds of sounds. North America is very curious about Zhou Shaoming bringing a movie full of different elements!

The success of "Twilight", which was released in February, has made Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company have an extremely good reputation!

At this time. Zhou Shaoming even brought an inner movie in the form of a ghost, constantly pushing the complex of the movie to a climax!

In the theater, Zhou Shaoming and Avril sat in the seats, looking at the 50% attendance rate in the theater, Zhou Shaoming breathed a sigh of relief, originally for this movie, Zhou Shaoming was more worried, because the theme of the film is very deep, although the actors are visualized in the form of ghosts, but for the North American market where heroism and fast food culture have gradually become popular, it may be a little out of place!

But the 50% attendance rate made Zhou Shaoming breathe a sigh of relief, even in the commercial blockbusters in Hollywood, the attendance rate is generally six or seven percent! With the addition of this movie, more viewers are still in a wait-and-see state!

Zhou Shaoming's heart was a little flat, but when he saw the end of the movie!

"Zhou, when the promotional video for this movie came out, everyone was more surprised, no one would have thought that Jim Carrey would join in the end! You've done this kind of work so tightly that you'll be sorry for the audience you've been following! Avril whispered in the theater!

Zhou Shaoming looked at the screen, and Wu Jing, Bell, and Murphy began a chaotic shootout!

During the filming of this shootout, Zhou Shaoming interpreted people's hearts even more, until the moment when Gao Zhiwei played by Murphy was killed by Detective Chen Guibin played by Bell, the audience applauded!

No one will have sympathy for such a policeman! Not only did he steal his colleagues' money, but he also used his own conditions to make a case in a robbery, and the master and apprentice got away with it and killed his colleagues! For such a police officer, it is very cheap for him to live until now!

However, the audience never expected that the movie would not end here! When Chen Guibin was dying on the ground, he looked at He Jia'an in front of him!

The sheriff sincerely asked to go out of the mountain at that time, and he was also excited to take the matching gun he used before, wanting to be a detective like himself!

It's a pity that people who worship themselves like this, in the end, Chen Guibin still saw a trace of childishness from He Jia'an, a timid child, a child who has not grown up!

For a person with such a demon, Chen Guibin can see through it at a glance! You must know that in such an environment, this timid child will eventually grow up, and it is also because his mind is not yet mature, he will do something without a bottom line!

This kind of thing is that Chen Guibin is actually very clear in his heart, but by this time, he can't change anything!

Only the eyes of prayer looked at He Jia'an in front of him! I hope He Jia'an can defeat his demons!

However, after all, as Zhang Meihua said, He Jia'an will kill himself!

The camera didn't show how to see He Jia'an shooting! Chen Guibin, who was dying, gradually closed his eyes!

When Zhou Shaoming was filming this scene at that time, Bell, Murphy, and Wu Jing, who had already cooperated tacitly, had a very good grasp of this gunfight!

Coupled with the stunts of the film, the scene of bullets and bullets appeared in front of everyone again! Avril still sighed a little at the director's kung fu of Zhou Shaoming!

I didn't think about it at all during the shooting. After such a set of shots is filmed, after seeing it in the theater, it is another immersive feeling!

Indeed, this is a little unacceptable to the audience, such a protagonist is obviously a protagonist who is misunderstood by the world, because he has a kind of eye that can see human nature, and the protagonist who was excluded by everyone was killed by the person he admired!

The audience took a cold breath. I really can't figure it out! originally had a series of movie roles, which has dazzled the audience! Until the death of the protagonist makes the somewhat pessimistic audience sigh! I feel unworthy of the protagonist's death like this, and I can't accept it in my heart after all!

Some of the audience stood up directly, while others moved their feet and prepared to leave! However, the film does not end like this! The audience who watched it may have forgotten that there is another heavyweight actor who has not yet appeared!

That's Jim Carrey! Such an Oscar-winning actor, in this movie's cameo, can be said to have earned enough eyeballs in North America!

"Jim Carrey!" At this time, the audience suddenly realized. Because Jim Carrey, who has not appeared for a long time, has seen him clearly in the promotional video!

"The film isn't over yet!"

With Zhou Shaoming's reminder from the audience, some of the audience who left came to their senses and returned to their seats one after another!

"What's wrong with them? Why the movie is almost over in a while. Just leave now! Avril was a little puzzled!

Zhou Shaoming's eyes narrowed, he took a deep breath, and responded: "Maybe I can't accept the death of the protagonist emotionally!" This film that explores human nature may not be very eye-catching at the box office. But I hope to achieve good results in the audience's word-of-mouth! ”

"Why?" Avril, who watched the whole movie, felt that the movie was full of mysteries, and the reason why Avril loved this movie was so much. It's not because I participated in it, and it's not mainly because it was filmed by Zhou Shaoming! A movie like this is a good interpretation of the changes in human nature in the environment, which is truly reflected in front of you! If you don't watch movies like this, what kind of movies do you want to love?

Avril thinks so! Surely those heroes who come up from fantasy alone can't help themselves at all! But this movie is different, I want to watch it again after watching it, and I can see a lot more!

"The theme of this movie is a little too deep, from the beginning of filming, I knew that when this movie was released, the audience needed to watch it twice before they could understand it! But how many people are willing to do that! Zhou Shaoming smiled at the corner of his mouth!

Before the release of the movie "Detective", Zhou Shaoming jokingly said at the press conference when he led the main members of the crew to promote: "Detective movie, if you can't savor it twice, you may not really be able to see the theme of this movie!" ”

For Zhou Shaoming's half-truths and half-jokes, the media reported them more in the form of jokes!

Everyone may think that Zhou Shaoming is joking again, "Director Smith Zhou, who rarely jokes in the media, actually took the initiative to say something that made people joke like this this time, it seems that the detective movie is on duty after filming, and our director Zhou Da is in a very happy mood, and it can be seen that he is very optimistic about this movie!" Dare to assert that the audience will go to the theater and watch it twice! ”

Zhou Shaoming is really ashamed of the misunderstanding of the media, but after all, how many audiences will come to the theater to watch this movie again? Even Zhou Shaoming was a little curious!

Avril listened to Zhou Shaoming's words and agreed: "After I finished watching it, I also had the urge to watch it again, maybe because there were still some places in the movie that I didn't understand, and I always wanted to figure it out!" ”

Zhou Shaoming said lightly: "This is a double-edged sword, if it is not handled well, maybe this movie will die because of this, after the premiere, it will be the turn of the dismal box office results, if the effect is good, then the box office results can not be increased by several percent!" ”

Avril's eyes lit up, this damn director always tries his best to get the audience to come to the theater to spend money to watch his own movies! What a scoundrel to the house, hooligan to the end! Avril only dared to think in her heart, but did not dare to say it, and reluctantly said: "You are a bad person! ”

Zhou Shaoming smiled at the corner of his mouth and responded: "How can I fascinate you and tens of millions of viewers if it's not bad!" ”

Of course. What Zhou Shaoming said to Avril was just a joke, but this movie is indeed a movie with a deep theme, so the audience needs to be patient and savor, and it is best to understand it once!

Zhou Shaoming, who has become a Hollywood gold medal director, is the master of Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, and has subsidiaries such as Blizzard and Marvel, Zhou Shaoming is not short of money, and he will not try his best to let the audience come to the theater and spend more money to enjoy the movies he shoots!

on screen. He Jia'an looked at the scene, he recovered from the panic, and hurriedly called his wife, at this moment, He Jia'an knew that only his wife could help him, because the gun that killed Gao Zhiwei in his hand was his wife's gun!

At the scene, He Jia'an kept rubbing his traces. After getting his pistol back, He Jia'an felt that everything was handled properly!

The camera flashed, and He Jia'an's wife, who had eaten with Chen Guibin, came to the scene, and He Jia'an handed over the pistol to his wife!

With the arrival of police cars. He Jia'an, who has already reflected the situation above, has the initiative, all the evidence in the scene has been erased, and only himself and his wife are left!

He Jia'an felt very relieved at this time. After matching the caliber with his wife!

The screen keeps showing images of the police carrying everything out of the house, the arrival of the police. Zhou Shaoming used scenes to reflect the tension of the scene!

It is in stark contrast to He Jia'an who is calm in the house! In the office, the police commissioner ate a hamburger, lowered his head and asked in a deep voice: "What's the matter, I just asked you to adjust the case of Wang Guozhu's disappearance, how can it be so big?" ”

"Report sir, with the deepening of the investigation of Wang Guozhu, it was discovered that the murderer was actually our police station colleague Gao Zhiwei! On the way to transfer Gao Zhiwei, he met a Philippine killer, this killer took Wang Guozhu's gun, fortunately there was Chen Guibin police, Mr. Chen Guibin's help, we successfully killed the killer, unfortunately, my colleague Gao Zhiwei was also shot and died! The main reason is that after I learned about Gao Zhiwei, Gao Zhiwei wanted to kill people, and my wife would shoot! ”

In front of the sheriff, He Jiaan looked very guilty! The police force opened his hand and trembled slightly! said lightly: "That's not the case, it should be, when you were having dinner with your wife and Chen Guibin, you accidentally saw Gao Zhiwei who was acting strangely, and you were all investigating Gao Zhiwei during this time, so you followed!" ”

"I found that Gao Zhiwei met the gangster, a Filipino killer who has been involved in armed robbery cases during this time, this killer not only killed our colleague Wang Guozhu, but also used Wang Guozhu's gun to commit crimes everywhere, which had a very bad impact! Gao Zhiwei was unfortunately shot and killed on the way to arrest the killer, until you appeared, as a former detective police officer Chen Guibin was also unfortunately shot and died, and you successfully killed the killer, although you received a gunshot wound, but there is no danger to your life! Is that right? ”

He Jia quietly listened to the police commissioner's lecture, "Yes, that's how it is!" ”

"Go back and write me a report!"

He Jia'an listened to the order, "Yes." The moment he walked out of the office, He Jia'an showed a wicked smile on his face! This incident, as early as He Jia'an expected, the police station should also take into account the image of the Hong Kong police, for the continuous shooting of colleagues between police stations, this matter has been paid attention to by the media, and if it is spread out, it will have a great impact!

So this matter, at most, insiders know, and externally, it is not such a version! This is a good thing for He Jia'an! The more chaotic things are, the better it is for them, and the superiors will not ask for clarification of this matter, and they will understand it as soon as possible! And He Jia'an himself will participate in the promotion exam smoothly!

Everything is in He Jia'an's plan! From looking for Chen Guibin to go out of the mountain, He Jia'an wanted to use this detective to help him, but he didn't expect things to be much better than He Jia'an himself expected!

The audience in the theater made a burst of boos, such a person, can still exist in the world, maybe the detective movie was filmed here in the Chinese market, the Chinese can accept it, but in the North American market, it will be vomited by many audiences!

The boos are constantly being booed, and the complaints are constantly being complained! Zhou Shaoming looked at the audience's expression, and a smile appeared on his face!

Avril looked at Zhou Shaoming proudly and said, "Did you think that there would be such a result, so you planned it early, and let Jim Carrey, the Oscar-winning actor, go crazy!" ”

After filming the shootout of Wu Jing, Bell, and Murphy with the Filipino killer shootout at the end of February, Avril thought the filming of the movie was over! It's time to go back to the United States! That desire was full of Avril, but the answer given by Zhou Shaoming was that the movie was not finished!

At this time, as a familiar figure appeared, when he greeted Zhou Shaoming at the shooting site, not only Avril Lavigne, but everyone in the audience was stunned!

Only a few people who knew very little about it didn't show a look of surprise, and Benjamin was one of them!

Benjamin brought Jim Carrey to the set! The Oscar-winning actor just got off the plane, and under the leadership of Benjamin, he came to Zhou Shaoming!

"Thank God, Zhou, for hearing my prayers, I can finally enjoy your movie." When Jim Carrey heard Zhou Shaoming's summons, he didn't expect that Zhou Shaoming, who had greeted him in advance, would really let himself be addicted to a small performance in this detective movie! (To be continued......)
