Chapter 423: A Wonderful Opening
After a few minutes of patch advertising, without any warning, the originally bright theater suddenly fell into darkness, and in an instant, thousands of theaters across the country that screened "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" at this moment all became silent, and all the audience stared at the big screen with bated breath.
Later, when the light reappeared on the dark big screen, everyone was shocked, and the "Wild Story: Rise of the Apes", which they had been waiting for for a long time, finally began.
In the melodious music, like the rising sun, a bright light pierced the darkness and quickly drilled out from the back of a mountain, in the light, the outline of the mountain was clearly revealed in front of everyone's eyes, and then in front of the mountain there was a look at the English words "Summit" and "Entertainmen", which was the opening animation of the Summit Entertainment movie.
The sound of soothing music sounded, and after a short period of darkness after the opening animation, a vast and boundless, verdant, primeval forest like green jade jumped on the big screen, and the sounds of insects, birds, gurgling water, and animals humming seemed to be chaotic but incomparably harmoniously blended together, falling into the ears of every audience in the theater, such a pleasant scenery made everyone feel comfortable and smiled.
New Zealand's southern island is home to some of the most beautiful natural scenery and Varagh. Pfister's master of photography, Howard. Shaw's soundtrack, the perfect combination of the three, finally presents an intoxicating picture of washing the body and mind.
"Oh, it's so beautiful." Liu Yifei's expression was full of admiration, knowing that Lin Yuquan was filming in New Zealand at the beginning, she suddenly had a strong desire in her heart to go there with Yuquan. It's great for sure. There was anticipation in her eyes.
Meanwhile. Liu Shishi, Liu Dehua, Zhu Yawen, many fans and viewers are amazed by the beautiful scenery on the screen, and some of them who pay special attention to the filming of "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" also have the same idea of traveling to New Zealand as Liu Yifei.
And this is undoubtedly the scenario that the New Zealand government wants to see the most, the reason why the New Zealand government will introduce a large-cost film and television production subsidy, in order to promote the local tourism resources to the outside world, and boost the development of the country's tourism industry. The so-called subsidy is actually equivalent to making the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "Savage: Rise of the Ape" and "Avatar" their tourism promotional films, and with the help of the influence of these blockbusters, they finally achieve an effect far beyond ordinary tourism promotional films.
I have to say that the New Zealand government has made a good calculation, but this is also a mutually beneficial thing, as a new line of production of zuò films, Dawn, and Fox have all benefited greatly from it, and they have not suffered losses.
A breeze blew, and the endless forest sea immediately rippled into continuous green waves, extending to the far end of the horizon that was out of sight.
And just as people were reveling in the beautiful scenery, a fierce roar suddenly sounded. At this time, in the close-up view, I saw that somewhere in the forest seemed to be shaking violently. As the camera switches, with a rumbling sound, a huge monster like a small hill appears in the sight of all audiences.
I saw that it looked like a rhinoceros, its body seemed to be covered with a layer of hard iron armor, and the fierce light flashed in its eyes, perhaps to vent its anger, or to show its own existence, the monster was rampaging in this beautiful primeval forest, its small hill-like body seemed to be indestructible, with extremely terrifying power, nothing could stop his steps, the earth trembled, the ancient trees were broken, and the peace of the original world was completely broken.
"It's the horrible monster from the trailer." Viewers who have watched the second wave of trailers can't help but get excited, this trailer has made countless people hate itchy, such a wonderful fight scene, when they saw the rise, but suddenly stopped, the kind of unfinished taste, the taste of not going up and down makes people feel so uncomfortable, I don't know how many people want to smash the computer.
Now after two months, I can finally see the full version, and in different theaters, a large number of audiences licked their lips and looked at the screen with bright eyes, looking forward to the early arrival of the drama that they had not watched at the beginning.
Under the watchful eyes of the people, the raging monster is quickly trapped by a group of equally tall apes, and then the two sides follow the people's ideas and start a fierce fight.
"Roar", "Drink", "Boom", in the high-pitched roars and collisions, the silence in the major theaters seems to be only the sound from the movie, and all the audience is staring at the sparkling fight between the monster and the ape on the big screen, especially when the scene comes to the part that the trailer does not have, it is even more clenched fists and excited.
What is the collision of pure forces? The fight between the monster and the ape fully proves this, there is no fancy skill, and he does not disdain to use other combat methods, the roar of an ape and a beast that has played a real fire shows the beauty of the collision of forces without reservation, savage, direct, and blood-boiling.
After a tense fierce battle, the ape-man, whose iron rod weapon had been transformed, finally won the final victory, standing in the forest that had become a mess because of the fight, he roared excitedly, venting the joy of victory after the difficult battle.
The other dozen or so ape-men also waved their iron rods excitedly, and after that, the ape-men lifted the monster corpse, which was their trophy for the day, and left the forest happily.
At this time, in the sound of passionate music, the main cast and crew list was played on the big screen: "Director Lin Yuquan, producer Lin Yuquan, screenwriter Lin Yuquan & Alex. Kuzman, starring Andy. Serkis, Benedict. Cumberbatch"
"Oh, the special effects, the fights are amazing." Recalling the fight scene just now, in the movie halls across the country, fans and audiences all admired in their hearts, and only in Lin Yuquan's movies can you see such thrilling and fascinating fights, and "Savage: The Rise of the Ape Race" It is also worthy of an investment of 170 million US dollars, which took Weta Digital a year to carefully polish the special effects, the monsters and apes in it are lifelike, and it is impossible to see that it is a special effect generation, from the eyes to the body movements to the fight, it is even more natural, without flaws, far from the scum special effects of other domestic movies and TV series.
No wonder everyone scoffed. In the past, I watched similar scenes in other film and television dramas. They are always spoiled by the botched picture. However, now, in the face of the extreme audio-visual effects presented by "Wild Wild: Rise of the Apes", they are completely enjoying it, and it feels so wonderful.
"It's a rain spring, this is a real special effects movie, it's really well done." Chen Kaige looked at the picture on the big screen with a smile on his face, from his professional point of view, "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" has been impeccable so far. From the soundtrack, to the editing, to the cinematography, to the special effects production, to the fight design, to the overall sense of the picture and the atmosphere created, they have all reached a point where they couldn't be higher.
Although this is only the beginning, it is impossible to judge the quality of the whole movie, but from the beginning of this part, Chen Kaige knows that this movie has reached a very high level in terms of technology, and then he can enjoy the world's top movie audio-visual effects. However, a good enough movie is not only about the audio-visual effects, but also about the story and ideas, and he is very much looking forward to this.
After the credits. On the screen, accompanied by the sound of desolate and ancient music. In the endless open canyon flatland, there is a huge tribe, the camera zooms in, this is an ape tribe, living in the ape tribe of the wild continent, the sun is hanging high, only to see the apes in the tribe are busy with their own affairs, the whole scene looks very lively and peaceful.
And the apes carrying the corpses of the monsters also returned to the tribe at this time, because of their return, the ape-man tribe became more lively for a while, and many apes surrounded them, including many young apes.
Among these young apes, there is a young ape-man who stands out, not because of its appearance and size, but because of its natural temperament, and the other young apes give people a particularly docile feeling, only it not only appears to be energetic, but also gives people a rebellious and uninhibited look.
"Wow, Uncle Halle, did you kill this ironclad beast alone?" The young ape-man said with a hippie smile.
The ape-man he called Uncle Halle was the ape-man who had fought with monsters and ironclad beasts before, and heard the young ape-man's words: "Of course, although this ironclad beast is extremely fierce, it is not my Harler's opponent. ”
"Uncle Halle, you are one of the few warriors of our ape-man tribe, of course you are powerful." The young ape-man grinned.
"Ha, it's good to know." Haller smiled heartily.
"Uncle Halle, you are so powerful, there must not be enough people to carry the prey, why don't I join the uncle and your hunting team, in the future, Uncle Haller, you will be responsible for killing the prey, and I will be responsible for carrying it." The young ape's eyes twinkled.
"You join my hunting party." With a surprised expression on his face, he shook his head violently: "No, no, I don't dare to ask you." ”
"Caesar, you'd better give up, you'll only get into trouble, which hunting party would dare to let you join?" A voice rang out, and the surrounding apes burst into laughter.
"I'm in trouble, I'm active and curious." Caesar the young ape said unconvinced.
"Ha, are you in less trouble? Let go of the pig beast of the Beru family and trample on the warehouse of the Kara family, anyway, my hunting party will not dare to accept you. Haller laughed.
"Hmph, Uncle Halle, you will definitely regret it in the future, I will become the first warrior of the tribe." The young ape-man Caesar was not hit at all, and raised his head and said with a full spirit.
"Here we go again!" The surrounding ape-men immediately began to heckle.
Caesar wanted to say something, but with the sound of "boom", in each sound, the ground would tremble violently, and with the louder the roar, the greater the trembling amplitude of the ground.
All the apes, including those who were busy elsewhere, stopped what they were doing and looked at the entrance of the tribe.
A huge foot appeared on the big screen, and as the giant foot stepped on the ground, it suddenly became dusty and made a loud noise, and then the camera moved up, and a figure far taller than the ironclad beast and the ape-man appeared, this is a giant, holding a mace-like weapon in its hand, striding towards the ape-man tribe.
Almost all of the apes, including Halle, had nervous and fearful expressions, except Caesar, who held its head up haughtily, full of disdain and sarcasm.
When the giant came to the tribe, the camera gave the giant and the ape a full description, only to see that the height of the tallest ape was not lower than the giant's waist, showing an extremely strong contrasting impact.
At this time, several old ape-men who rushed to hear the sound stood in front of the apes, and one of the old ape-men looked up at the giant, and said with sincere fear: "May I ask the envoy what commands?" ”
"On the orders of the Giant King, you ape clan need to raise enough tribute within five days, and send 3,000 apes to participate in the construction of my giant clan's palace." The giant's voice said like thunder.
"Five days, how can five days be enough, and if we 3,000 apes go to build a palace, how will we hunt in the future." Caesar's eyes flickered with disbelief.
"Hmph." The giant looked at Caesar viciously, snorted, and the mace in his hand slammed into the ground, and after a loud bang, the dust dispersed, leaving a deep pit.
"This is the order of the Giant King, you should know the result of disobeying the order of the Giant King, and there is only one result of disobeying the order of the Giant King, and that is death."
Under the giant's hideous eyes, almost all the apes bowed their heads in fear, but Caesar was not afraid, but this time its head was pressed to death by Halle, and its mouth was covered.
"The envoy is angry, and my ape clan will definitely complete the order given by the Giant King." The old ape-man hurriedly said in a panic.
"Do your best to complete the order, otherwise, hum." The giant stomped his foot heavily, then strode away.
"Bah, damn the Giants, damn the Giants, have been enslaving us apes." As soon as Haller let go, Caesar immediately yelled.
"Halle, put Caesar in the dungeon." The old ape-man who spoke just now said with a sinking face.
"Ah, dungeon, Elder, what did I do wrong?" Caesar hurriedly shouted.
"Hmph, you actually dare to contradict the envoy of the Giant Clan, do you know if this will bring ruin to our clan, so reflect on it in the dungeon." The old ape, who is an elder.
"Elder, am I wrong? Five days is not enough to complete the task of hunting, and after sending 3,000 apes to work as coolies for the construction of the Giant Clan, the hunting efficiency will definitely be greatly reduced" Caesar's voice is getting quieter and quieter, and has been pulled away by Halle.
"Hey, Caesar is right, five days can't complete the task of hunting and offering!" An old ape-man said.
"Let all the people of the tribe go out and participate in the hunt." The ape-man elder who spoke earlier said.
"What, all of them are dispatched, many clansmen have no hunting experience, and the danger of hunting is not trivial!"
"I know that if I don't complete the mission, my clan will be wiped out, and I can only make sacrifices for the survival of my clan." The ape elder said in a deep voice.
"Hey!"
Seeing this scene, countless audiences in different theaters had a strong sense of sadness in their hearts, this is the fate of the ape clan, they can face the fierce beast fearlessly, but in front of the giant clan, they are powerless to resist, they can only endure the poor worm of enslavement.
