Chapter 48: A frenzy of applause!
And Zhou Shaoming touched left and right, as if checking whether there was a problem with the Cross Blade rail car, and it didn't start for a long time, which made York close his eyes and draw a cross in his heart, calling God bless.
"Shh Zhou Shaoming saw that York closed his eyes, so he signaled the people around him to be quiet, and then never pressed the electric door, as if waiting for York to open his eyes
"What's wrong? Why is there no sound around? York closed his eyes, but he couldn't hear people talking, his originally nervous mood became even more nervous, and he wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't control his eyelids!
"Audience friends, the film is about to start, please enter the audience immediately!" The radio in the cinema sounded, but no one left, and those who were going to leave had already left, and those who were here didn't want to miss this good show, and they didn't even watch the opening movie.
"What about people? Are they all in the market? Why is no one talking? Are they lying to me? β
York didn't want to open his eyes, but he found a reason to open them, he couldn't wait unconsciously in the dark, and if he continued like this, his fragile nerves would collapse immediately.
Now is the time!
Zhou Shaoming's eyes showed a fierce light, the electric door in his hand was pressed hard, and the motor of the cross blade rail car began to hum, as if the scythe of the god of death was finally raised, and it was about to swing straight away!
Rush in!
As soon as York opened his eyes, he saw that the Crossblade was flying straight towards him, and the target was his head!
There is nothing more desperate in the world than to see death coming but unable to do anything, York's pupils suddenly contracted, and the despair in his heart made him lose control, and he just reflexively squatted down and sat on the ground in panic.
"Dang!" The Crossblade railcar jerked into the rail and then stopped, doing nothing to York.
"Hahaha! This kid is scared of the fart! I'm laughing to death! β
"Oh God! I burst into tears! β
"I should bring a DV! Take a picture of what this guy looks like! It's a laughing death! β
The audience in the cinema burst into laughter that almost toppled the roof, whistles, laughter, applause, and so on.
"Ladies and gentlemen, on October 21st, the horror blockbuster "Chainsaw" will be released in this cinema! Want to see how this Cross Blade rail car actually cuts through people's heads? Please watch it then! β
Zhou Shaoming waited for everyone's laughter to calm down a little, and shouted hoarsely with a megaphone.
"October 21st? Halloween period? That's great! Finally a horror movie I want to watch! β
"When the time comes, you must come to see it, this murderous rail car is too terrifying and terrifying! Be sure to see what's going on! β
"I never thought there would be such a killing machine, it's cool! I'm going to get Bill and them to watch Saw Horror! β
People talked about it, and most of them expressed strong interest, declaring that they would definitely watch this movie when the time came, and Zhou Shaoming knew that his dream was one step closer to success.
One day, the newspaper will make headlines in its own image, and the cinema will flood with countless audiences, naming and wanting to see the movie they have made, and all of them will be moved, excited, scared, frightened, and even ......
Crazy!
At the same time as Zhou Shaoming was performing the killing props, the same show was also staged in the other ninety-nine theaters, and countless audiences who walked into the cinema were full of curiosity about the killing props as he expected, and they were even more shocked after watching the performance, "Chainsaw" has been deeply rooted in their minds and has become a movie that they must watch and feast their eyes on Halloween.
***
The new version of "Chainsaw" was rated NC-17 by the Motion Picture Association of America, and many people, including Lionsgate's distribution manager Jon Philtimmel and Tobin, suggested that Zhou Shaoming make some editing of the footage to achieve an R rating, which they thought would attract more people to the cinema to watch "Chainsaw".
In reality, James Wing was also forced to cut out many violent and bloody scenes in "Chainsaw" and reached an R rating.
But this suggestion was sneered at by Zhou Shaoming, he felt that cutting out some horror scenes was to pursue what R-level, and it was clearly a stupid move to be a bitch and want to set up an archway.
A horror movie is a horror movie, using bloody killings to attract people's eyes and stimulate their spirits, this is not a movie for all ages, it has a clear audience.
"Why should I watch Saw under the age of 17? Yes, they are numerous, reaching 120 million people, but we must know that there are 50 million to 100 million people in the United States who are 18 to 40 years old. They are our food and clothing parents, and my film is the business of these audiences! I want to please them, not try to trick the pacifier-sucking kids into watching this movie. In an interview with the newspaper, Zhou Shaoming said these words very funny.
And Robert Jr. and Jeremy both supported Zhou Shaoming, and they intuitively felt that Zhou Shaoming was right.
βncοΌ17οΌ If I could, I think the NC-20 would be fine! It's a movie for men! Robert Jr. strongly supported Zhou Shaoming.
"Chainsaw is NC-17? What's wrong with that? It's not NC-17 that's the problem! Horror movies are not scary, who still spends money to buy tickets to watch them? Is it funny? Jeremy Renner said.
At Zhou Shaoming's insistence, this movie not only did not cut it, but used nc-[***] to hype it up.
"This is an NC-17 movie, and there is no **naked surname love in it, and there is no continuous swear words. There is only one department, which is so ingenious that it has to be spread on the Shaolin abbot network after the 80s, and Zhou Shaoming also used "viral marketing" to push "Chainsaw" to **.
In fact, viral marketing is not a profound knowledge, to put it bluntly, it is the most vulnerable way for ordinary people to publicize: word-of-mouth effect.
As early as hundreds of years ago in China, there was the basic embodiment of viral marketing, that is, the often said "the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys".
One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, hundreds spread thousands, and that's how the virus came.
Word-of-mouth advertising is the best way to sell, and it is a way that no matter what TV commercials, radio ads, bus advertisements, etc., etc., etc., etc., and the cost is very small.
To take the simplest example, an ordinary consumer wants to go to see a movie, and his friends around him recommend it to him, hey, buddy, xxx movies are good, go watch them! He would naturally think, well, this movie should be good, and since they all said it was good, let's watch this one.
Whether it's a movie or any consumer product, it has this word-of-mouth effect.
When everyone is interested in the same thing and starts talking about it, it will receive an extremely high level of attention, and after reaching a certain height, it will bring a lot of money.
Now, Zhou Shaoming is looking forward to the fact that the publicity in these movie theaters can be remembered by groups of live audiences, so as to bring them into the chat between their friends, stimulate each other, and remind each other that there is such a movie.
In addition, with Zhou Shaoming's deliberate encouragement, "Chainsaw" not only became the focus of discussion among the entire Los Angeles people, but also became the front page headline of popular entertainment on the Internet and in newspapers, and these propaganda, except for the first time to invite reporters to come to report and spend a few dollars, has not spent a single copper plate since!
Because of this content, it's so exciting!
Yahoo Entertainment headline: Murder mechanism in movie theaters, outrageous sophistication and blood! Underneath is a horrific photo of the Cross Blade Rail Car cutting a mango into four slices.
A Yahoo reporter wrote: I have never seen, or even thought, that people can die like this! How frightened and desperate would it be to die under such a sophisticated and bloody machine? It is conceivable that in this movie, the way this killing machine is put in motion, such a shot of a skull bursting can sweep away all homicidal movies with machetes or chainsaws!
The headline given by the Washington Post entertainment reporter was: Deadly! In 1974, Texas Chainsaw had a new disciple?
The content is: Although the film has not yet been released, countless curious viewers have begun to explore the roots, and since 1974, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre became the milestone of the greatest thriller and horror film in the history of cinema, it seems that we have not found a more creative horror film for a long time. Maybe this movie can bring new excitement to moviegoers from the new idea of killing machines?
And Jill Ballis, a special film critic for the Chicago Sun, angrily wrote an article attacking: "Killing machines? Neurotic thoughts! β
The content inside says: The whole United States has been boiling in the past few days, and everyone is talking about the news that a small-budget horror film is about to be released. The film uses the killing machine as a selling point and hypes it up. This really makes me unacceptable, the simplest point, if I want to kill someone, a shot to death, a stab to death, a rope to strangle, how simple is it? Look at that exquisite killing machine, who is full of food and panic, developing and manufacturing this kind of thing? This is not at all realistic, not logical! I suggest that this young director, who is only 22 years old, pay more attention to the connotation of the film and what it brings to the audience after the excitement of flesh and blood, instead of making a gimmick to trick people into the cinema and spend money!
For a while, in the newspapers and on the Internet, the controversy over "Chainsaw Horror" began to become more and more intense, and finally uncontrollably developed into a scene of scolding each other, foaming at the mouth, and exposing each other's secrets, and the reporters of the Chicago Sun and Yahoo Entertainment Edition were old enemies who had some old feuds, and the anger became more and more intense, and the quarrel was like an erupting volcano.
They openly gambled that if "Saw didn't break $100 million at the North American box office," then all of Yahoo Entertainment's network editors would have to run 100 meters naked downstairs at the headquarters of the Chicago Sun. On the other hand, if it exceeds $100 million, the reporters of the Chicago Sun, regardless of gender, will collectively go to the office building of Yahoo Entertainment and run naked for 100 meters!
And Zhou Shaoming, who was interviewed by other newspapers, was asked which side he supported, and this guy said very indifferently: "Where is Yahoo Entertainment's office building?" I'm going to see a good show! The Chicago Sun? I hate to say it, but they lost! β
But contrary to Zhou Shaoming's seemingly blind confidence, all the media overwhelmingly believe that Yahoo Entertainment will lose, and even within Yahoo Entertainment, the editor-in-chief Gast, who was so angry that the Sun newspaper exposed his old bottom and agreed to make a bet, was considered by everyone to be a fool because of this bet.
"You're going to run naked and go by yourself, we're not going!" Many editors at Yahoo Entertainment said that they all thought that the editor-in-chief, Gaster, had a brain in water, how could a rookie director make a $100 million movie with more than a million dollars?
Even that Gast regretted his impulsiveness a little, but he had to send it when he was ready to fly, so he could only rely on his identity as the editor-in-chief to privately arrange as many soft surname advertisements for "Chainsaw" as possible, and then pray to God and Buddha to hope that Smith Week's box office would not be too miserable.
The Sun newspaper celebrated with a win-win gamble that saw their newspaper's sales increase by 3 percent, and they were beaming with a huge slogan.
"Welcome to run naked, we'll see you in a month!"
Some tabloids began to squat all day to shoot Zhou Shaoming's every move, and many big newspapers also began to find Zhou Shaoming for an exclusive interview, and although Zhou Shaoming also maintained the modesty and caution unique to Chinese, he could not hide that unusual arrogance!
The huge headline given by New York Times entertainment reporter Brand Wacker is a testament to Zhou's self-confidence and pride.
"I'm a supernova!"
Americans are full of respect for those who dare to express themselves and have the courage to challenge, so Zhou Shaoming not only did not scold too many people, but made many American film critics or ordinary people applaud loudly, attracting more and more eyes, which can be said to be in the limelight for a while.
Of course, all this will be built on the success of "Chainsaw", and if the film fails, Zhou Shaoming will be swept into the garbage heap mercilessly, and no one will take a look.
"Supernova" director, Smith Chow, the countdown to the movie "Chainsaw"! In seven days, audiences in North America will be able to see the film in the following 100 movie theaters!
Because of his support for Zhou Shaoming and repaying Zhou Shaoming for his support, this news will appear when the Yahoo Entertainment pop-up window opens the webpage every day, which makes Zhou Shaoming smile from ear to ear.
On the Internet, "Chainsaw" opened its own official website, which was visited several times, the server was paralyzed several times, and millions of netizens crowded into this small website, so that Lionsgate urgently invested in several servers to solve the problem.
The final promotional battle for Saw was the concentration of videos, which appeared on the official website, Yahoo Entertainment, and other major websites, all of which had a theme:
Cross Blade Railcar, what will be chopped tomorrow?
Netizens can bring their own items, let the Cross Blade rail car chop, and record the whole process with a professional camera, and on the official website, there are already thousands of strange and various chopped items.
Some brought their own tattered puppets, some with teacups, and even some people who didn't get tired of running with their TVs just to see how the Crossblade railcar shredded them.
At eight o'clock in the evening, countless people will flock to the movie theater, but to the annoyance of the movie theater owner, most of these people are not coming to see the movie, but to see how this killing machine cuts things!
But he was annoyed and couldn't do anything, Lionsgate had already rented this place and signed a contract, which was protected by law!
"Okay, okay! Today's highlight is here! Zhou Shaoming roared hoarsely in his throat, the high-intensity use of his voice these days had made him tired.
The crowd erupted in jubilation, waiting for an hour or two just for this moment!
"Today, we're going to shredd, a brand new desk donated by Mr. Will!" Zhou Shaoming pointed to a triumphant boy next to him, waving to everyone, especially the camera.
"Hello everyone, I'm Will, and I'm from Tennessee! I've been waiting for this opportunity for three days! Finally it's my turn, thank God! Will said loudly, his smile almost stiffening.
And the audience below all pouted, feeling that it was not exciting enough.
"Cut! No creativity! β
"That's it, it's still cooler to shred the brand-new IBM computer yesterday, the guy who slashed it for thousands of dollars, wahaha, it's so cool!"
"Go down, go down!"
There was a lot of talk about it, and Will, who was still smiling just now, was embarrassed.
As soon as the knife went down, the sawdust flew all over the place, making the audience exclaim.
"Guys, the second thing we're going to chop up today is, whoahaha, this thing is amazing! Listen up, everyone! A Harley-Davidson locomotive donated by Mr. Bonwe! Zhou Shaoming raised his hand and shouted excitedly.
"Did you hear that right? Someone is going to cut Harley!! β
"Wow! Cruel!!! It's fucking cool!! β
"Call now, why hasn't Bella come yet? If you don't come back, you'll miss the show where Crossblade breaks through the Harley-Davidson locomotive! β
"Get out of the way, I'll take a picture!"
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, bastard!"
The crowds are getting more and more surging, and the halls of the movie theaters are unconsciously crammed into thousands of people, people are sweating profusely, and countless cameras are erected just to capture that classic scene.
By the way, if you can take the most stunning photos and rank in the top 10 on the Saw website, you can get two free tickets! It's a rare opportunity, so let's do it quickly!
A red Harley-Davidson locomotive with an extremely stylish shape, the entire body is shiny and shiny, and the fuel tank is spray-painted with three English letters, which is slowly pushed out by the staff and placed at the end of the mechanism.
And people's surprise is at its peak at this time!
β**οΌ It's a new car! It's not a rag that is sent to the repair shop! β
"How nice it would be to give it to me, don't get on the Crossblade Railcar!"
"Udil, show it quickly! If you don't come back again, you'll regret it for the rest of your life! β
"Who stepped on Lao Tzu's feet? Damn it! β
"Ahh
This is Zhou Shaoming's memory of some guys in later generations, holding pistols, AK47 or Gatling Vulcan cannons to bombard ipads and iPhones, and then replaying these shots in slow motion and putting them on Youtobe to attract other people's attention, not to mention, there are a lot of people watching this kind of thing, which is really shocking.
Inspired by this, Zhou Shaoming wanted to use the Cross Blade Rail Car to cut something that ordinary people would not dare to imagine, such as the Harley locomotive, which is known as the spirit of the United States.
Chop Harley! Haha, this title is exciting enough, right? Mine will be in the headlines again tomorrow! And newspaper web reporters must have loved such shocking content!
Zhou Shaoming was overjoyed in his heart, looking at the audience in front of him who were so excited that they took out their cameras to take pictures frantically, and shouted loudly: "Do you want to see how to chop Harley?" β
"Yes!" Thunderous shouts.
"Shout with me, SAW!"

Under the roar of countless people, under the widening of the pupils of countless people, under the earth-shattering screams, and under the snow-white situation of the whole person illuminated by the flashing lights, the Cross Blade Rail Car started violently, like thunder and lightning, and the arrow from the string, speeding away!
The pedestrians on the street looked at the movie theater in bewilderment, they didn't know why there was such a loud roar suddenly, as if countless people were shouting frantically, as if the movie shook their hearts, they stopped unfreely, went to the movie theater, and then, saw the movie that affected their lives, saw!
Saw Horror!
οΌοΌοΌ
York-Hanske and Lisa have been at odds for days since they came out of the cinema that day. Lisa felt that York was scared by the Cross Blade railcar that day, it was just too embarrassing, too not a man, and clamored several times to break up with York, the reason was: "I need a very manly man!" And not a little imp who is afraid of even movie props! β
This made York very sad, he was just a knee-jerk action, how could he rise to the point of accusing himself of guts?
In order to save this relationship, York crowded into the theater every day, waiting for the release of "Chainsaw", he must grab tickets for the premiere, otherwise Lisa will really break up with him.
But the audience of people like him was crowded, most of them young people in their early 20s, crowded into movie theaters in groups of three or five, waiting in line for the movie theaters to sell tickets to "Saw".
A series of propaganda has already caught the appetite of the audience, and Lionsgate Film Company only designated 100 movie theaters as the first batch to broadcast "Chainsaw", this method made these 100 movie theaters burst together, and the audience inside was sweating, and turning the air conditioning to the maximum seemed to have no effect.
"Get me two tickets to Saw Horror!" York waited in line for more than an hour before he squeezed to the ticket office and shouted at the conductor beauty, and then stared at the guy who wanted to cut the queue and pushed him out.
"Sorry sir, the first and second games of Chainsaw are all sold out! Now there are only tickets for the last few rows of the midnight show, do you want them? The conductor said apologetically.
β**οΌ Only tickets for the midnight show? York was shocked, how could he explain to Lisa now?
β**οΌ I said I wanted to come early, now it's good! When the people behind heard this, they all sighed and said.
"Do you want more, sir? Why don't you take a look at the haunted house, this movie is also very good! The conductor asked tentatively.
"Nope! I'm going to want a ticket to Chainsaw! No matter what the tickets, get me two! Someone from behind tried to squeeze in, waving colorful bills in their hands and shouting.
"Don't don't, don't sell it to him! I want it, give me two! York hurriedly shouted that if someone else did take the ticket, Lisa would screw his ears off.
As soon as I got the tickets, before I walked out of the door, the conductor beauty shouted: "The tickets for Chainsaw are all sold out today!" Tickets for tomorrow can only be sold! β
The queue erupted in discontent.
"I**! Why are only these cinemas available? My friends have been to several movie theaters, and none of them have been released! β
"Hell, can't you arrange a few more?"
"Ahead, if you don't want to buy it, let's go, no one is expected to come tomorrow!"
"Who said I won't buy it, don't say tomorrow, I'll buy the tickets the day after tomorrow!"
The crowd was noisy, but no one left, and everyone was looking forward to whether this movie was so magical.
"This is NBC Cable, I'm reporter George, and it's a pleasure to meet you. Today we are going to talk about a movie "Chainsaw" that has been very popular on the Internet and in newspapers recently, and today it is the ticket sales for this movie. And this small-budget film that is currently on the cusp of the storm, and even triggered the "streaking incident" between Yahoo Entertainment and the Chicago Sun, how will the real box office situation perform? Let's take a look. β
George took the microphone, followed by a big man with a camera, walked into the crowd and said, "Oh my God, the movie theater is full of people, is it all to see saw?" β
Holding the microphone to interview a young man in a jacket with an angry face, George asked, "Hello, which movie are you watching?" β
"**, I'm here to see Saw! I live in Riverside, hundreds of kilometers from Los Angeles! Lao Tzu drove the car for a long time, but he couldn't buy a ticket when he ran here! I'm so angry, I'm going to protest badly! On behalf of all the people in Riverside who want to see this movie, I say that the Lionsgate area is disdainful! Lionsgate to die! β
After saying that, the young man waved his fist, indicating that he was very unhappy.
George wiped his saliva face, and said embarrassedly to the camera: "Oh, this young man is very excited, it seems that the temptation of SAW is really great, let me interview another one!" β
Deliberately looking for a girl who looked soft and weak, George grinned and asked, "Beautiful girl, which movie are you watching?" β
"Which movie? What other movie in the whole of America is worth seeing right now? Watch saw, of course! The outwardly weak-looking girl was a female tyrannosaurus rex, shouting at the camera: "My boyfriend bought a ticket for three days and didn't get a ticket to the premiere, I'm here to say to you, Steve, you useless guy!" If I get a ticket today, we'll break up! Parted! β
George held up the microphone and found himself even more embarrassed.
"Saw Horror has already sold out tickets, and now it will be on sale, and we will open a new ticket window to meet the needs of the audience." The news came over the radio in the theater.
"**, there's a new window over there!" Someone raised their arms and shouted, and countless people rushed to the window like a tide.
"Get out of the way!" As if she had taken a stimulant, the girl who was interviewed pushed George aside and rushed towards the newly opened window as if flying, while a large group of people gritted their teeth and roared, and you rushed to the ground, drowning the frightened George and the cameraman directly!
After getting the ticket, York rushed home, only to find an even bigger surprise on the Internet, when his photo of a shredded Harley-Davidson locomotive was named seventh best photo, and he received two tickets to the premiere given away by Lionsgate!
The overjoyed York ran to report the good news to Lisa with the ticket, and was hugged and kissed by Lisa, who was also happy, which made York even more happy and smiling.
Arriving at the cinema early, York and Lisa dressed up as if they were not going to see a movie but preparing to get married, and walked into the movie screening hall with their heads held high and proud in the envious eyes of the crowd waiting to buy tickets.
If the large screening room is full, hundreds of lucky people are looking forward to it.
Zhou Shaoming and Tobin Bell, Robert Downey Jr., Jeremy Renner and other main creators and leading actors sat in the last row of the movie theater, and they were also nervous, waiting for the release of this condensed "Chainsaw", waiting for all the audience to give the most direct evaluation.
This moment has finally come, after so long of hard work, it is finally time to see the results!
Zhou Shaoming clutched the handle of the chair tightly, as if this would make him feel more at ease, and the strong psychology of gain and loss made him feel like he was sitting on the sinking Titanic, so uncontrollable.
The screening room went dark, the people who had been noisy fell silent, and the Lionsgate icon appeared on the big screen, followed by the English word "twistedoictures", two thorny wires wrapped around it, and suddenly, a sharp iron drill went straight down, twisting and winding the wire, and then cracking and breaking.
Seeing his name appear on the screen, Zhou Shaoming sat up straight, the corners of his eyes were slightly moist, and the little Robert on the side patted him on the shoulder with deep sympathy, revealing the same solemn expression.
The movie unfolds in a secret room, and the chains that lock up Dr. Gordon and Adam surprise all the audience, as if the movie is not as they imagined, a murderer using murder props to frantically dismember the body, and this suspenseful beginning makes them unable to extricate themselves from the characters on the screen, and start to guess who is going to do it.
As the plot progressed, uncontrollable whispers began to appear in the audience: "Oh God, oh my God! β
The screams seemed to spread like a virus, and the screams of the audience whose faces began to turn white became louder and louder, and those viewers with female surnames were originally forcibly suppressed, and when they heard such frightened screams on the side, they let go and began to scream in front of the screen of a certain death mechanism!
Dozens of screaming girls made the other men shrink awkwardly, and occasionally a few timid men didn't even care about their faces, and they also screamed with those girls.
"Ahhh
"Oh God, oh!"
β**οΌ**οΌβ
All kinds of irrepressible exclamations, all kinds of excited and frightened shouts, one after another.
Usually, boys are willing to take girls to watch horror movies, just to watch girls scream in fright, and then get into their arms, but "Chainsaw" is completely different, when those girls get into their arms with white faces, the boys don't have the intention to take advantage of the opportunity to get stuck in the oil, they just hug the girl tightly, as if they are the tortured people in the movie, nervous and helpless, their eyes are just firmly fixed on the screen, and they throw this great opportunity out of the clouds!
The film plays second by second, the camera keeps changing, and when the picture cuts to the needle pit full of needles, countless viewers can clearly gasp and hear endlessly, and there is a wave of undulating scratching in the crowd.
When Amanda fell into the needle pit and screamed and got up with the needles all over her body, it caused a large number of screams, and many viewers with the surname of the girl were cold in their hands and feet, dizzy, and covered their eyes and didn't dare to look down.
Lisa clutched her chest, her face was pale, her eyes stared straight at the big screen, the empathetic stimulation made her goosebumps for a while, and the screams nearby made her want to vomit and spin.
And York was no better, he was already a little timid, he kept gasping for air, his facial muscles twitched slightly, he really couldn't imagine how bloody and terrifying it was when those death machines in the movie theater showed their man-eating fangs!
Cross Blade Railcar, Death Jaw Ripper, when one killing prop after another appeared on the screen, one after another screams, exclamations soared into the sky like waves, and many people covered their eyes, but peeked through their fingers, as if this would make them feel more at ease.
Lisa clutched York's hand tightly, both of them were sweaty, and they didn't even say a word, they were attracted by the ingenious conception of "Chainsaw", one ring after another, the ups and downs of the plot, and brought in a large bucket of popcorn, which was hurriedly put down after only a few bites, without eating a few more bites.
In the cinema, there was only the heavy and nervous breathing of the audience, just the screams in the face of the death camera, and the impact of this movie on their minds was like a tornado that swept everything!
When the camera shows Dr. Gordon screaming, but trying to see his leg with a saw, the audience felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts, their calves and stomachs were cramping, and the popcorn that was knocked over by the frightened and trembling people was one after another.
The audience who held their heads and covered their eyes, the audience who shrank timidly, the audience who broke out in exclamation from time to time, and even many people, tightly grasped the hands of the strangers next to them who didn't know each other, and pinched themselves and others painfully!
When the scene comes to the last part, when Tobin's "Saw" stands up from a pool of blood, all the audience gets goosebumps, and the movie theater is filled with gasps that even loud music can't suppress.
Countless anxious viewers stood up, they looked at the big screen in horror and disbelief, they never thought that the guy who had died in the secret room a long time ago and had his head blown out turned out to be ......
The entire cinema audience stood up, as if they had seen the last goal of a penalty shootout on the pitch, and everyone's hearts rose to their throats, and their mouths unconsciously shouted "Oh my God! My God! βγ
No one shouted for the audience in the front row to sit down and stay out of the way, everyone stood up, all standing, and watched the last bit of the shot.
If Zhou Shaoming arranges a thriller scene at this moment, everyone will definitely be intimidated!
Sure enough, Zhou Shaoming arranged a face that suddenly appeared, it was the face of Jiansaw!
Countless people were frightened and sat back on their seats, some people were scared and fell into a rolling gourd, and some people picked up popcorn that they hadn't eaten for a long time and just wanted to take a bite, but they were so frightened by the saw's face that their hands trembled, and a pot full of popcorn fell on the head and face of the person in front of them!
And the guy who was poured a head of popcorn was even more unexpected, he just jumped out of the corner of his eye, subconsciously picked up the popcorn on his body and stuffed it into his mouth, while still stiffening his face, and said in a non-trivial voice, "**, Jiansaw is simply a madman!" It's crazy! β
No one thought that Zhou Shaoming, who had been playing for a long time with a sense of psychology and horror, used the scary techniques commonly used in horror films, but it made the audience who was not psychologically prepared even more unexpectedly frightened and embarrassed.
Like all the audience, Zhou Shaoming, Robert Jr. and others also stood to read the last paragraph, and they watched the audience's reactions with satisfaction, showing expressions as if they were unburdened.
Isn't it the dream of filmmakers to make movies that make people cry, make people laugh, and make people as miserable or happy as the people in the play?
At this moment, Zhou Shaoming finally did it!
The movie ended, for a whole minute, no one left, no one spoke, they all just opened their mouths wide, replaying those unforgettable scenes in their hearts, shocking!
After a while, the cinema suddenly burst into enthusiastic applause, and the loud whistle was like waves rushing onto the shore.
At this moment, the whole movie theater resounded with a frenzy of applause, so loud and neat, so moving!
"Cool, cool horror movie!"
"Fortunately, I grabbed the ticket early, and Phil's guy is still queuing up outside, so we'll finish it, haha!"
All kinds of discussions were mixed with thunderous applause, and everyone was pale, but they were extremely excited and excited!
The American audience is very extroverted, and "Saw Horror" shocked them, and they reflected their psychology with the warmest applause, and for a time the huge applause made the entire screening hall thunderous.
York clapped desperately, he was scared back into his chair just now, but fortunately Lisa didn't notice it at all, which made him feel better, and now, like Lisa and everyone else, applauded hard, announcing that the film didn't disappoint them from the beginning, and it was bound to be a classic horror movie!
In the future, all the horror movies will tremble, be uneasy, and even fear in the sequel of this movie!
And Zhou Shaoming quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes in the thunderous applause, so that the excitement flowing in his heart calmed down a little, and the audience's reaction showed that all the persistence and painful efforts were worth it, and he finally brought SAW to this world and finally fulfilled his dream!
His eyes were red, and Zhou Shaoming just tried to sniff and control his tears not to fall, but he found that little Robert was in tears, sitting there and wiping his eyes hard.
And Jeremy was even more exposed, sitting there crying silently, unable to even raise his head, crying into tears.
Zhou Shaoming held back his tears and laughed: "You guys, you are really not angry, big man, what are you crying about!" β
And little Robert raised his teary eyes, just looked at him, and the hazy teary eyes made Zhou Shaoming no longer hold back his agitated mood, and suddenly rushed over to hug Jeremy and himself, who was crying bitterly, and the big tears couldn't stop rolling down.
Sweat, tears, and even blood, in exchange for success, is more precious!
The three big men hugged each other tightly, crying together, venting the joy that had gone through countless hardships and even torture, at this time, they just hugged each other hard, let the excited tears flow endlessly, and let the heart full of happiness lean tightly.
The road of chasing dreams is full of thorns and traps, only by relying on the courage of perseverance, only by relying on friends to accompany each other, and warm each other, can we remove the fog that covers our eyes and reach the other side of success.
"Don't cry, don't cry, children, our dreams have been achieved!" Tobin said in a hoarse voice, wiping tears from his eyes.
Dreams, dreams!

As they walked out of the screening room, York and Lisa excitedly talked about the film, while the anxiously waiting audience outside asked, "Hey, buddy, is Chainsaw good?" β
"yes, is it pretty? Spoilers aside, though! β
"I heard a lot of cheers and applause just now, it should be very beautiful!"
York looked up proudly and exclaimed, "This is a landmark horror movie!" It's so nice and cool! I can't find any words to describe it, if I had to rate it, it would have five stars for top movies, and I would say, buy tickets and get in buddy! You won't regret it! β
After watching the movie, the audience all showed satisfied smiles, echoing York's words, which made the audience waiting outside to buy tickets even more emotional.
"Extras! Damn, Lao Tzu has been here for three days and hasn't bought a ticket, and if you can't buy it today, you won't leave! β
"The owner of the cinema is out! We're going to see saw! β
"Come out, come out!"
There was a huge roar in the cinema!

When I got home, my phone rang, and Zhou Shaoming took it out and saw that it was Christina calling from Xia Weiyi.
"Hello, dear Christina, is there something wrong?" Zhou Shaoming's mood finally improved a lot, and said jokingly.
"How? How was the movie released? Are the audience satisfied? I'm so sorry that I haven't finished filming yet, so I can't accompany you to see this first movie. Christina's anxious and guilty voice came from her phone.
"Movies? Oh, it's not bad, the movie theater is full of people, and when the last scene, as you said, many people are so surprised that they knock over the popcorn on the floor, and then the movie theater sweeping aunt will scold me to death! Zhou Shaoming had recovered from his excitement and said casually.
"So you like it? So we succeeded? Christina's eyes widened on the other side of the phone, and she sat on the bed in the hotel, hugging her pillow, and said in surprise.
"Yes, Christina! We did it! Our Chainsaw was so popular that the crowds lining up to buy tickets filled the entire cinema! Zhou Shaoming stopped teasing Christina, he suddenly said loudly and excitedly.
"Thank God! You've made it......" Christina sobbed with excitement came over the phone.
"Oh baby, don't cry, we made it, you should laugh! You're also one of the investors, and I think you'll be a millionaire soon! Zhou Shaoming smiled and comforted Christina.
"Hmph, I'm a millionaire, then you're a multimillionaire!" Christina finally stopped crying and replied angrily.
"Hehe, I would rather be the most successful film director, not some multi-millionaire!" Zhou Shaoming's words also represent his heart.
In just a few months, he understood the meaning and truth of life, money is no longer the goal he pursues, only in the cinema to see the audience applauding enthusiastically for his films, and the sense of accomplishment when cheering loudly makes him like an addict who has finally become addicted, and he will never get rid of movies for the rest of his life.
"Yes, you will......" Christina's voice gradually lowered, "I miss you so much, Zhou!" β
"I miss you too! Christina! Zhou Shaoming's heart was hot.
According to this development, the new version of Chainsaw Horror cannot be lower than the box office revenue of the previous work, and when he completes the main task of the director system this year, he will be like a hibernating snake who can't cheer up all year long, and he will be able to come in handy!
Thinking about Christina's delicate and charming face, the bumps and the extremely hot body, Zhou Shaoming's heart seemed to be scratching his heart with a hundred claws, and he was very anxious.
Hurry up, hurry up and break the $50 million box office in North America so I can ......
Zhou Shaoming fantasized in his heart for a long time, and also chatted with Christina on the phone for a long time before falling asleep in extreme excitement and exhaustion.
In the dream, it was Christina's delicate skin, and the satisfied smiling faces of countless audiences, shuttling non-stop like a marquee.
The next day, there was a lot of praise on the official message board of "Saw Horror", in addition to a lot of "This movie is so good!" In addition to the short words such as "this movie is good, it's worth paying for tickets", many people have begun to discuss the thoughts about the meaning of life behind the movie, and at the same time, they have begun to affirm that "Saw Horror" will become a classic among the classics.
A John named Running wrote in a film review: "Whether it is in the sense of oppression, the novelty, and the end of the plot arrangement, it is impeccablely beautiful, and it simply exceeds my expectations." In 1999, the golden age of horror was long gone, and the market was full of formulaic and clichΓ©d genres, and it was difficult for horror fans to find the excitement and surprises of the past. The brilliant performance of "Chainsaw" is tantamount to a shot in the arm for the sluggish horror film market at the time, starting from the clever pun of the title 'saw', the director uses the unknown, darkness, space claustrophobia and death and other four main human fear sources as side dishes, plus a large number of realistic descriptions of the dark side of the surname as the main meal, although only a small amount of plasma is used as a supplement compared to other horror movies, but the creativity and exquisite ingenuity revealed everywhere in the film are combined with simple but accurate pain communication, and the sharp editing, which makes this dark and exciting feast low in cost but not extraordinary at all; Although you can smell the taste of some classic horror films, but under the choreographer's clever removal of the chaff, he has created his own pattern, with the ending full of strength and surprise, the word 'saw' is deeply imprinted in the hearts of horror film fans, and it is not an exaggeration to regard it as the birth of a new classic!
There's also a fan named "Saw Saw" (this guy grabbed it so quickly!) "Two men were thrown into a basement bathroom, and all they knew was that in eight hours 'only two could only live' or they would all die," the film review said. The film won the audience's screams with its tense, complex, thrilling, mysterious-like plot and unexpected ending, and the strong gastrointestinal reaction and unique perspective of the human surname made the film leave a deep imprint on the audience's sulcus gyrus. The perspective of the film's story is entirely from the perspective of the victim, rather than from the perspective of the police, as is usually the case in works. And in addition to the bloody horror, the film is also designing a harsh moral test, the murderer is not only driven by cruelty and madness, but also wants the victim to perceive the value of life, in a scene, the death game really changes the attitude of a survivor to life, and finally let me say my famous quote! Don't take life for granted, don't wait until it's too late to know how to cherish it! β
The following of these two film reviews has reached three or four thousand in just half a day, and countless people are excited, and they must leave their own mental journey here.
This will make the box office of "Chainsaw" go further! Zhou Shaoming was very happy, he didn't expect that someone would find his central meaning through the bloody surface so soon, and he also smiled and made up a name casually, replying to these two movie reviews with an "up"!.
In addition to the sound of praise, there is a skyrocketing box office!
