Chapter 195: Concern from the Country

"'The Raid' Surprises at the Toronto International Film Festival!"

The recent appearance of this news has surprised many people, and they even couldn't believe it at first, but then they knew that this news was completely true.

Everyone didn't expect this to happen now, the whereabouts of Chen Xi's "Raid" have always been a problem in the Chinese film industry, anyway, everyone can't think of the whereabouts of "Raid", but they all know that the film has disappeared, but they don't know where it has gone.

As a result, now the movie appeared in a place they hadn't thought of at all, in a way they hadn't thought of before, and so, for a moment, these people were almost stunned!

They really didn't think of it.

"In addition to Wang Xiaoshuai, what else can we expect from Chinese films in Toronto this time? Chen Xi gave the answer. ”

"The Raid was selected for the Midnight Madness Unit in Toronto, and the unheard "The Raid" reappeared!"

…… A lot of voices kept appearing, of course, these are the voices of the media, and after the words of these media, many people also know that "The Raid" is now about to appear in the Midnight Madness section of the Toronto International Film Festival.

Many people have also started to analyze and evaluate in various ways.

"I really didn't expect that now Chen Xi's movie will appear directly and quietly at the Toronto Film Festival, this film festival is still very good, "Raid" has always been just a movie that has been made but I can't hear any news, but I didn't expect that I can still see this kind of news now, anyway, I think it's very good!"

"I have always felt that Chen Xi is a very good director, especially "Border Storm" really amazed me, "People in Embarrassment" feels too commercial, but there is nothing too big wrong. Now, once again, he has given us a huge surprise! This year's Chinese movies in Toronto, Yu Liwei, Jia Zhangke, Wang Jiawei and others are relatively deliberately imaginable, but Chen Xi is indeed a sudden surprise, no one expected him to suddenly appear on the screening list in Toronto...... Midnight Madness Unit! I hope that Chen Xi's film will win an award! I believe in the quality of The Raid! ”

"The 'Midnight Madness' section mainly screens some movies with a special visual style similar to "Sin City" and "Puppet Show", which are unusual kind of movies, inclined to horror films, and bloody films...... Chen Xi's "Raid" suddenly appeared on this unit, and then reminiscent of what he said before about the so-called 'fundamentalism of action movies', in this way, his "Raid" should be very outstanding in places like violence! Thinking about it this way, and then thinking of the completely restrained violence of "Border Storm", I really look forward to seeing what kind of "Raid" Chen Xi can make! It's a pity that I'm in China now, and I don't have the ability to go to Canada to watch Chen Xi's movies. ”

…… The audience is commenting and analyzing more and more.

This time at the Toronto Film Festival, among all the Chinese films, Tale of Twenty-Four Cities is a movie that everyone is looking forward to.

It's 08 now, and the waves of commercialization are coming wave after wave, but Jia Zhangke, a filmmaker, has always had a maverick temperament, and it seems that he resolutely does not compromise with commercial films, and still does his own film story in his own framework.

Although the director Jia Zhangke has been classified as a sixth-generation director, in fact, some of his styles are like the fifth-generation directors in the nineties, and his films have always been the love of Europe, especially those literary and artistic young people in France, Jia Zhangke has a very high reputation at the three major European film festivals, especially the Cannes International Film Festival, and his popularity at the Toronto Film Festival in North America is not low......

So his "Tale of Twenty-Four Cities" is also a very popular movie, and when the news of the film festival officially reaches the ears of Chinese fans, this film is the most anticipated.

As for other directors, such as Yu Liwei's "The Swinger" or something, this film does have a very strong stylized sense of color and shooting, which allows people to get a pleasing visual experience, but overall, there is nothing commendable about this film other than photography.

But...... No one thought that a ghostly "Raid" suddenly appeared in Chinese-language movies, and it was really surprising that this film that disappeared in front of the public appeared in such a way.

Now everyone's attention has shifted to the next table of "Raid", many people are looking forward to seeing the table of "Raid" in a foreign country, in fact, if the Chinese can see the news of their country's film killing in foreign countries, it will still be quite excited, there is no doubt about this, although we have lost the throne of the Celestial Empire for almost two hundred years, but the kind of education that has been exposed to a lot of education since childhood and the accumulation of thousands of years before, still makes people believe in their hearts that they will one day return to the first place in the world, and many people may complain about these people in this country on the surface, but this kind of identification in the bottom of his heart is in a place that he has not discovered.

Chen Xi, as a rising director, his "Border Storm" gives people a very amazing feeling, and the subsequent "People in Embarrassment" can be said to be decent in terms of general appearance, but the commercial performance of the film is very successful, and the structure of many places in the middle is also very pure commercial style, but it is still very attractive, even from the perspective of pure film.

Therefore, everyone is also looking forward to "The Raid", and they hope that Chinese movie fans can also be recognized by some foreign audiences for Chen Xi's aesthetics, and they will have a feeling of liking Chen Xi's movies.

But it's a pity that no fans have seen "The Raid" in China.

It's just that this movie was screened in the Midnight Madness section of the Toronto Film Festival, and the films in this section ...... Combined with what Chen Xi himself said about 'action movie fundamentalism', everyone can also deduce something: it seems that Chen Xi's "Raid" should really have something in it, and there should be no shortage of terrifying, bloody, and violent scenes.

However, not everyone rejects these shots, otherwise there would not be so many fans of CULT films in this world, and there would not be so many fans who like "Fatal Bend" or even "Human Centipede......

...... "It seems that I really have a high reputation in China now!" ”

After seeing a lot of reports about "Raid" in the domestic media, Chen Xi touched his chin and muttered to himself with some emotion.

Indeed, what is happening now proves that Chen Xi is now paying attention in the domestic media, and his current status in the domestic fan base.

Now the number of fans on Chen Xidu's mother's post bar has exceeded 50,000, which actually proves that their practice of hyping the word Chen Xi as a brand is completely correct, such a base of 50,000 people has actually exceeded most of the other domestic directors, and these 50,000 people have also exceeded many well-known domestic actors at this stage, and this number is still growing.

Of course, Du Niang's post bar does not prove a qiē, this is just a reflection of Chen Xi's current popularity from one side.

Now, Chen Xi's every move has attracted more attention from the domestic media, especially films like "Raid", which disappeared before, and this kind of Cheng dù that has attracted attention will obviously become bigger, and there will be a lot of people paying attention.

Chen Xi's current popularity in the eyes of the public has long surpassed Ning Hao unconsciously.

However, now Chen Xi is also more concerned about one thing, that is, will the matter of his "Raid" in Toronto affect the release of "Embroidered Spring Knife"? He was worried that "Raid" would steal the limelight of "Embroidered Spring Knife", and then everyone was just worried about "Raid", ...... "Embroidered Spring Knife" is a god? Can you eat it?

This kind of thing does affect people......

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, many of the releases of "Embroidered Spring Knife" are relatively smooth, and the screenings these days are also doing quite well, and the results of the screenings are quite good, basically maintaining an average attendance rate of about 60 per game, this attendance rate is indeed quite good, and this kind of achievement can indeed prove a lot of things, so the number of films scheduled on the first day of "Embroidered Spring Knife" can basically be guaranteed to be between 25-30, which is the return of Chen Xi's popularity in the film industry now, This Cheng dù's film scheduling rate has never been seen in Chen Xi's movies before.

Chen Xi's goal for "Embroidered Spring Knife" is to be able to reach 50 million box office, so that the company can have a surplus of several million to 10 million...... At that time, if "Raid" really sells well overseas, he will also take advantage of the east wind to launch "Embroidered Spring Knife" and make a lot of money overseas, and he will be able to earn a lot of money at that time.

Of course, this premise is that "The Raid" should be powerful......

Now that his worries have been relieved, Chen Xi has put all his thoughts on the Toronto release of "The Raid"! The film will soon be released at the Toronto Film Festival, and although it is said that this is basically a film festival for movie fans, Chen Xihe still has tickets to the scene, and they can go to the scene to hear what the audience has to say about the film and whether they will enjoy watching it.

Chen Xi even has an ambition to make "The Raid" stand out from the Midnight Madness unit and win an award...... That would be great! R1152
