Chapter 223: Japanese Premiere
(I'm sorry, but the previous Toho became Toei, but now it's changed.) )
Sure enough, as Li Xuan expected, after everyone arrived at the hotel arranged for them by Dongbao, a group of Chenglong fans also gathered outside. However, this time the hotel was obviously much more prepared, and more than 20 security guards were dispatched to stop the fans outside, allowing the group to enter the hotel smoothly.
Li Xuan looked at Chenglong still carrying his Mickey Mouse backpack, and couldn't help laughing: "Ah Long, which girl has secretly promised you?" ”
"Oh, this is a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl." Chenglong took off the Mickey Mouse backpack, shook it in his hand and said, "Don't you think it's cute?" ”
It's really a cute-looking backpack that just hollows out the belly of a Mickey Mouse puppet and makes it into a bag.
It's just that Li Xuan looked at Chenglong with a smile and a smile, you are not a little girl, okay!
After this group of Hong Kong people who came from afar allocated hotel accommodation and arranged everything, Hideyuki Okada, the executive in charge of the introduction of Hong Kong films in Dongbao, said: "Everyone, everyone have a good rest, I will come to wash the dust for everyone in the evening, and then attend the movie premiere together." ”
Li Xuan's group nodded, and after Okada Yingxing walked away, Li Xuan ran to Hong Jingbao and their side to explain to each other. Li Xuan himself has to attend the movie premiere tonight, and it is impossible for their crew to start the show today, but they can't let the crew run around and cause anything, so now I have to ask Hong Jingbao to help manage the crew.
After taking care of these things, Li Xuan ran back to his and Zhong Chuhong's room to rest.
Now there is no business for him, and Dongbao will take care of the premiere and the filming of the crew. To say that this Dongbao and Jiahe are also an old cooperative relationship, Chenglong's movies in Jiahe are basically distributed through Dongbao in Yueben, when "Senior Brother Out of the Horse" was released in Yueben, Dongbao also spent money on TV advertising on TV, which is a rare good distributor.
After resting until five o'clock in the afternoon, Hideyuki Okada came over to pick up several creators of "Police Story" and the senior management of Golden Harvest to go outside for a reception, and then the group went straight to Marunouchi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.
The name Marunouchi is a bit strange, but it is a famous shopping street and the headquarters of the Mitsubishi Group, which has a cooperative relationship with Seilong.
Li Xuan wants to shoot Chenglong's drag racing scene in Yueben this time, and naturally Mitsubishi's sponsorship is indispensable.
Not to mention that the relationship between Mitsubishi and Chenglong is really good, in addition to the casual use of the car for filming, you can also get less than half price for buying Mitsubishi's car through Chenglong. Now the average price of a Mitsubishi car is 70,000 Hong Kong dollars, but you can get it by buying 30,000 yuan from Chenglong. So now Chenglong's family class is a car per capita, and it has become the best group of people in Hong Kong's martial arts.
In Marunouchi's 3-chome (also known as No. 3 Road), the 70-year-old Imperial Theater, the first Western-style theater in Yomoto directly operated by Toho Co., Ltd., is located.
The Imperial Theatre, like most of Hong Kong's luxury cinemas, can perform musicals, concerts, and movies as a cinema. In the twenties, Mei Lanfang's first eastward performance was here, and she performed fifteen times in a row, and the scene was very popular.
As soon as Li Xuan and his party got out of the car, what they noticed was not the fans surrounding the entrance of the theater, but the giant movie poster hanging on the theater. There is only one Chenglong with bloodstained eyes on the poster, and Lin Qingxia and Zhong Chuhong, who have appeared in the posters in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, are gone.
Okay, what's this Toho doing?
Li Xuan shook his head slightly, and then looked at the fans at the door of the theater and smiled at Chenglong: "Ah Long, your charm is really not small, there are so many fans everywhere." ”
Chenglong waved to the fans from a distance and said with a smile: "It's just that there are more fans, the more I prove that the more successful I am, the harder I have to work." ”
"The more fans you have, the more success you have?" Li Xuan smiled and continued, "That also proves that you are more dangerous. ”
"More dangerous?" Chenglong was slightly stunned, and then smiled and waved his hand to the fans not far away.
Li Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, what do you think of John in England last year?" Lennon was just shot by his own fans, and this year, Junko Mihara was almost killed by fans with a stick again, don't you say that the more fans there are, the more dangerous it is? ”
“……”
Chenglong glanced at Li Xuan speechlessly, then bent his arm and said, "It's okay, I know kung fu!" ”
"Hehe, can kung fu be compared to a gun?" Li Xuan glanced at Chenglong with disdain and continued, "You might as well hire a few bodyguards." ”
"Bodyguards? Do I want someone else to be a bodyguard? ”
"Hey, you guy, kind enough to be a donkey......"
“jackie! jackie! jackie! ”
Suddenly, a burst of cheers from fans interrupted Li Xuan's words, looking at the fans who were getting more and more crazy by the security guards, Li Xuan decisively slowed down a small step and threw this limelight to Chenglong.
Chenglong nodded and chuckled to the fans on both sides as he slowly walked forward.
And Li Xuan, who followed behind, also found that this premiere was different from Hong Kong, that is, the fans of this movie were too crazy. When "Police Story" premiered in Hong Kong, there was never a case of fans pushing security guards, let alone fans jumping on their feet while shouting 'jackie'. Throughout the premiere of the book, the shouts of the security guards, the roars of the fans, and the sound of reporters taking pictures were mixed together, giving Li Xuan a chaotic feeling.
As soon as Li Xuan and the others entered the Imperial Theater, they were taken backstage by Hideyuki Okada, who was supposed to take a break from the makeup, and quietly waited for the start of the premiere.
With the voice of the master of ceremonies on the stage and the applause of the audience, the premiere slowly opened. Modeled after the premiere in Hong Kong, the master of ceremonies also played the wonderful life-fighting footage at the beginning, and there were bursts of exclamations at the scene, and then a burst of applause came over.
In this lively applause, the master of ceremonies invited them, the main creators of the film, to play, and of course, there was a translator behind them.
Suddenly, the applause at the scene was much more intense.
"Empty gang wow!" The master of ceremonies was the first to say hello to them.
Li Xuan could still understand such a simple sentence, so he said in a similar way: "Empty gang wow." ”
After a brief greeting to everyone, the master of ceremonies immediately asked with interest: "Jackie, in those movie highlights just now, you fell off a fast-moving bus, is this true?" ”
"Of course it's true, it's all real footage, it's not edited in any way." After Chenglong heard the translator's words, he immediately said without hesitation: "Not only is this picture true, but we also shot many dangerous shots in it, and we didn't say what special effects lenses or protective measures were used." So in this movie, what you see will be a real me. ”
"Wow, you're working too hard, aren't you afraid you'll get hurt?" The master of ceremonies asked.
Chenglong shrugged his shoulders and replied, "I'm hurt, you should have seen me being kicked alive by a person in the tidbits." ”
"So what made you make such a big change this time?" The master of ceremonies asked curiously: "Not only has the genre of the movie changed, but even the filming has become more desperate." ”
"This ......" Chenglong touched his big nose, pointed at Li Xuan and said, "You have to ask the director about this, and ask him why he asked me to film this film." ”
"Haha-"
There was laughter at the scene, and the emcee immediately looked at Li Xuan and asked, "Director, how do you answer this question." ”
"Answer?" Li Xuan thought for a while and replied: "My explanation is feeling, in fact, I am a director who likes to find actors according to feelings, I think this role Ah Long is very suitable, so I asked him to play." As a result, I found the right one, Ah Long's acting skills Ah Long's kung fu are all great, by the way, do you want to see Ah Long's real kung fu? ”
"Yes!" The master of ceremonies immediately said loudly, and then there was a lively applause at the scene.
Chenglong stood up, but he didn't punch anything, but cleanly did two somersaults, which immediately caused thunderous applause in the theater.
After Chenglong's performance, the group talked about interesting filming on the stage for a long time, and it didn't officially end until about an hour of trouble.
And the premiere of "Police Story" has finally begun.
At the beginning of the movie, there was an unusually fierce gunfight scene, which attracted everyone's attention, and when Chenglong drove his car to destroy the wooden house village, a series of thrilling shots immediately attracted all the audience at the scene to take a breath and stand up.
"Nani, this can't be a real shot, right? It's so exciting! ”
"Ruined a small village."
"Yaga! Of course, it was really filmed, do you still need to doubt it? ”
"The director is not human!"
"......" (To be continued.) )
