Chapter 533: Stone Premiere
July 1, Beijing.
Chu Qing and Fan Xiaoye appeared in a movie at the same time, which is enough to become a reason for many audiences to enter the theater. Coupled with the pre-publicity of the Internet and the media, the tickets for the premiere are very tight, and Huaxing Cinema moved the venue to the largest IMAX hall, but 380 seats are still not enough, so more than 20 chairs have been added.
The audience seemed very excited, just looking at the stars in the front row, it was already worth the ticket price. The two of them were not specially invited, but the number of friends who came to cheer still reached double digits.
Like Yuan Quan and Zhang Jingchu, these are reasonable, and it is a bit surprising that Lu Xiaochuan, Chen Kexin, and Huang Jianxin also came to participate.
"Let's not talk much, each of you will introduce this movie to you in one sentence."
At this time, the host Liu Yiwei was standing on the stage, skillfully controlling the rhythm, and said: "Ning Hao, you are the director, you come first." ”
"Well, this is, it's a really fun movie, and I hope you can feel the charm of it." Ning Hao was slightly nervous, and his speech was a little stammering.
"Okay, soldier, it's your turn!"
Fan Xiaoye wore a pink and tender long skirt, poked it like a peony flower, and said with a smile: "There are me and my Mr. Chu here, so you must see it." ”
"Wow!"
The audience coaxed, showing affection for Shenma is the most annoying!
Liu Yiwei pursed his lips and quipped: "Actually, I want to be sorry too, but I have the integrity of being a host." Aoko, it's your turn. ”
"There are not many directors who can make genre films in China, but from today onwards, please remember one name, Ning Hao." Chu Qing looked quite serious.
“……”
Regardless of Lu Xiaochuan's reaction, Ning Hao looked at the boss, and suddenly gave birth to a kind of dare to die for a confidant.
Liu Yiwei was also stunned and said, "Okay, then let's invite the three of us to take a seat." The premiere begins immediately. ”
"Whoa!"
With applause and small chats, the servants left the game, and as soon as Fan Xiaoye sat down, he grabbed her husband's ear and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Not really."
"Don't you think you're happy?"
"Maybe, maybe a little tired." He was stubborn, and in front of his daughter-in-law, he couldn't hide anything.
Sure enough, Fan Xiaoye glanced at him and knew it in his heart. For a while, they are all promoting everywhere. We only met this morning, and something must have happened in the meantime.
But she didn't want to ask, so she held her husband's hand and watched the movie easily for the time being.
The lights on the ceiling went out, and the black screen slowly lit up. With a trembling sound of dripping water, the curtain is like a golden lake in late autumn, rippling and rippling. Then, a man's face appears on the left, and a woman's face on the right. The two kissed gently.
Immediately, at the bottom of the screen, the words "the two of us" appeared.
"Poof!"
The audience is all sprayed, and you don't let the single dog live? As long as you are not blind, you can see that the naked * is the CG silhouette of the boss and the boss's wife.
“……”
Chu Qing also twitched the corner of his mouth. I feel very ashamed. Because the company's previous title was only bare and printed, Fan Xiaoye felt that it was too ugly, so he spent a high price to make a new one.
No way. It's good if she's happy.
"Producers: Chu Qing, Fan Bingbing; Director: Ning Hao; Starring: Guo Tao, Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Liu Hua ......"
And when this list of names was played on the screen, Xu Zheng was still played, but Liu Hua, Wang Xun and others couldn't hold back the slightest agitation: they used to watch their own movies in the theater. It's so wonderful.
……
Ning Hao is grateful to Guy Ritchie, who borrowed a lot of the structure and shooting techniques from "Two Big Smoking Guns". For example, in the beginning part, it was obviously a shot of Guo Tao seeking medical treatment, but he suddenly jumped to the cableway across the river.
Peng Bo, who is dressed as a young man, is making a death* teasing Fan Xiaoye: "Whenever I look at the city from this perspective, I have a strong feeling that the city is the mother, and we live in her womb. ”
After a brainless episode, he jumped to Wang Xun and the handicraft factory, and after two minutes, Liu Hua also showed up with two stupid thieves.
"Hey, do you understand, who is the protagonist?"
The first buddy was a little blindsided and couldn't help but ask his girlfriend. The girl chewed popcorn and said casually, "I don't know, it looks too messy." It doesn't matter, "Whatever, anyway, I'm here to see Chu Qing." ”
On the screen, Brother Dao's small goods were investigated, and Heipi walked to the traffic police with a hammer.
"Boom!"
In the alley not far away, a car slowly slid and caught another car. The picture actually turned: Four Eyes sprayed a big word on the wall.
Wipe!
The audience was still waiting to see the progress, but the screen jumped inexplicably, and they immediately complained:
"What the hell is this? It feels like a mess! ”
"It's just that you can't connect the front and back at all!"
Ning Hao heard it well in front of him, his body tightened suddenly, and he was about to turn back. Chu Qing held it down and said with a smile: "It's okay, relax!" They're not used to it yet, you have to have faith in yourself. ”
"Well, I understand."
Ning Hao reluctantly smiled, he knew what the boss meant: the audience is not used to seeing such complex multi-line expressions in a domestic film.
In the past ten years, the so-called comedy movies in China have either been a collection of Feng Xiaogang-style jokes, or a short small market in the family, with witty language and upward themes, but the narrative technique is just one word, flat.
Eighty percent of today's audience came for those two people, but when they went to the scene, Fan Xiaoye only showed a small face, and Chu Qing didn't see it at all, which undoubtedly made many people unhappy.
However, the movie had only started a short time ago, so I had to sit down patiently.
"Holy shit!"
The four eyes were spraying words, and suddenly they heard a sound, and they saw a bread crashing into their BMW.
Then the camera pans again, Bao Shihong and San Bao are open bread, and a can falling from the sky smashes the glass. The two got out of the car and scolded, but they didn't know that the car had slowly slid away.
"High-tech, unmanned! I didn't see it, don't touch me, don't open it if you can't open it! ”
"Haha!"
At this point, while the audience was laughing, four words came out in unison: I see! Those seemingly scattered shots have made the main characters and causal relationships in the film clear.
In just a few minutes, two small flashbacks were used, and the audience only found it fresh and interesting.
"You can really shoot like that!"
Lu Xiaochuan's eyes lit up, and he whispered to Huang Jianxin.
"You should say, you really dare to shoot like this!"
Huang Jianxin glanced at Chu Qing and asked quietly: "If it were you and said that I was going to play an experimental movie, what do you think?" ”
"It was okay when I was looking for a gun, but now I may not even be able to make an investment."
Lu Xiaochuan pondered for a moment and said honestly.
"Alas......"
The two of them looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
With the development of the plot, the main line of the story gradually became clear, and the factory director dug up a priceless jadeite and wanted to rely on it to bring the factory back to life, but it provoked all parties to get moved.
In addition to the two forces of Brother Dao and Feng Dong, there are also branches of Sanbao, Xie Xiaomeng, Bao Shihong's obscure illness, and so on...... In the face of such a wealth of clues, the audience quickly learned the correct way to watch the movie, and no longer made a fuss about the ambushes set up by Ning Hao.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Chu Qing finally appeared, with a tight leather coat and angry silver studs, but he was wrapped up by Xiaojun in one shot.
"Haha, I'll give you a lung!"
"Wow, he speaks Cantonese to a good standard!"
"Of course, they've been in Hong Kong for two years."
"But what does that mean?"
"Uh...... me! ”
The audience ushered in the first wave of emotional highs, and at this moment, everyone was completely attracted by this film.
Speaking of the original stone, the cost is only more than three million, and the picture is rough. Now with nearly 10 million funds, Ning Hao can show his creativity on the basis of ensuring visual effects.
In his lens, the city of Chongqing shows a magical three-dimensional sense, ancient and modern, towering and low, all of whom are running around with money. Coupled with the sharp editing and unconventional music, the whole movie exudes a strong smell of alcohol, and you don't feel drunk.
The audience is not stupid, which director treats each other sincerely, which director is deliberately fooled, and his heart is clear.
"I'm a brand, Baleno!"
"Nike, what about the camera?"
"Come, kid, call your daddy."
"You first insulted my personality, and now you are insulting my IQ!"
"Hahahaha!"
The atmosphere of the theater has long been boiling, the rhythm is tight, the burden is full, and there is no urine point in the whole process.
Ning Hao played the charm of language to the extreme, and the powerful ugly star was also first-class and outstanding, and even in the end, as long as everyone saw Liu Hua or Huang Bo appear, they would be reflexively emotionally surging.
"I'm convinced!"
Lu Xiaochuan shook his head secretly at the bottom, where did these people come from, it is simply eight words: crooked melons and cracked dates, people and gods are angry.
At the end of the film, Huang Bo is biting bread and is chased by the shopkeeper on a scooter, and Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker" sounds, and the film ends.
"Whoa!"
Almost instantly, the audience spontaneously slapped their hands and saluted the film, to all the main creators, and to the sincerity and enthusiasm inside.
"Hey, don't be stunned!"
Chu Qing stabbed Ning Hao, who was still in a daze, and the goods came back to their senses and walked to the front of the stage tremblingly. The two of them did not have the qualifications to be the boss, so they gave up their position to the actor and hid to the side.
Guo Tao, Huang Bo, Liu Hua, Peng Bo, Wang Xun...... lined up on the stage, and the press corps also crackled and took pictures. Liu Yiwei watched the whole process, saying that the five bodies threw themselves to the ground, and of course he picked a little thorn in Guo Tao's heavy celebrations.
The exchange session was very lively, the audience grabbed the topic like crazy, and the actors even answered all questions. Later, even Lu Xiaochuan couldn't help but run to the stage, and said seriously: ""Crazy Stone" is a very free movie, Ning Hao, if you persist like this, Feng Xiaogang should be nervous."
