Chapter 721: The Burning Legend of Wukong
The news of the upcoming release of "The Legend of Wukong" was also quickly revealed in front of everyone's eyes, in fact, everyone has been looking forward to this movie for a long time.
This is not only because "The Legend of Wukong" was called a strange book on the Internet back then, but now twenty years later, it still has its own unique charm, and it has also influenced a generation and a large number of people...... is even more because the movie "The Legend of Wukong" is now directed by Tan Zhicheng and Shen Dan.
Tan Zhicheng needless to say, the previous movie in Cannes has given him quite a good reputation and influence, and many people have a desire to pursue his new film, and naturally, his new movie will also receive high attention.
Shen Dan actually needless to say, he has been by Luo Mo's side all these years, and many people, including those in the circle and those outside the circle, regard Shen Dan as Luo Mo's apprentice, after all, he has always been by Luo Mo's side, and the movies he shoots also have these Luo Mo's styles.
And Shen Dan's previous movie has also proved his talent and ability, proving that he has the strength to show a lot of things.
Now it is a combined attack of Tan Zhicheng and Shen Dan, and many people are full of attention to such an attack, and they are looking forward to seeing a "Legend of Wukong" that is completely in line with their imagination and even beyond their imagination.
Moreover, Luo Mo also served as the producer in this movie, in this way, it is conceivable that "The Legend of Wukong" will definitely have the consistent logic and rigor of Luo Mo's movies, even if the plot is not interlocking, it can always justify itself, and it can also attract everyone's characteristics.
Therefore, everyone really has a huge concern about the two of them this time "The Legend of Wukong", and this attention is getting heavier and heavier.
Until now, "The Legend of Wukong" is about to be released on the National Day, and the opponent of this film is still a Hollywood blockbuster with an investment of more than 100 million US dollars.
On this day on September 28, many days before Luo Zhen was born, Luo Mo also began to attend the premiere of "The Legend of Wukong".
Now, after all, there are more and more overseas distribution channels of Qianmo Entertainment Company, and the movie is still produced by Luo Mo, so the film "The Legend of Wukong" can now be said to be released simultaneously in the world, and there are many countries where it is released, in addition to several countries and regions in Greater China, the film has been released simultaneously in five countries in Southeast Asia, four countries in Europe, and the North American market.
It's just that in the North American market, there is still no way to compare the number of screens released in "The Legend of Wukong" with previous Luo Mo movies, such as "Yue Fei" and the like...... But even so, now "The Legend of Wukong" can be released simultaneously in so many countries, especially in the North American market, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.
The premiere before the official release also attracted a lot of attention, Shen Dan also has a high reputation abroad because of Luo Mo, plus the commercial blockbuster he directed before not only has a high box office in China, but also has a total box office of more than 100 million US dollars overseas, such a number is very strong, and it also makes more fans really remember Shen Dan, and it is not because of Luo Mo......
As for in China, there is no need to say much about his attention......
Therefore, in the current situation, "The Legend of Wukong" has indeed received strong attention from many people.
Therefore, when the movie was officially released in the IMAX theater of the Beijing Times Cinema Line, many people had already come to the scene and began to pay attention to the movie.
Of course, the premiere of the movie can't do without Luo Mo...... And there are a lot of people rushing for tickets for this premiere, of course, the fans who can come to the scene after the most are still very few after all, and most of them can only wait for the official release of the movie.
After Luo Mo came to the scene, he was quickly surrounded by some reporters, and Luo Mo himself was really embarrassed - this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened, that is, last time, when Ning Hao's "Brothers" was released, Luo Mo also came to the cinema and was immediately surrounded by reporters, and as a result, they asked a lot of questions that had nothing to do with "Brothers", which made Luo Mo very distressed......
Today, sure enough, reporters quickly began to ask some questions that had nothing to do with the movie.
"Director Luo Mo, your child is very healthy now......"
"Xie Luxie cares, he is quite healthy...... But I'd like you to ask more questions about the film...... I think it's better, you say? ”
The reporters also nodded their heads in reassurance, and then began to ask questions related to "The Legend of Wukong"-
"As the executive producer of "The Legend of Wukong", some people speculate that you are the real helmsman of this movie, what do you think?"
Luo Mo smiled: "There is no such thing, the directors of this movie are Tan Zhicheng and Shen Dan after all, this is their work...... Strictly speaking, I'm just a name, and I make soy sauce. ”
"So do you like this movie or how do you feel?"
"Of course, I'm very optimistic about it, not only because this movie is a product of our company, but also because I have already seen the sample film of this movie, and it is indeed very well shot, and I believe that everyone will soon feel this in the official release of the movie."
…… Luo Mo casually answered some reporters' questions and then ran to the third row and sat down, anyway, it was not a pure premiere of his own movie, so there was no need for him to run to the first row to toss, just be honest in the third row.
Then, the noise of the scene, and all kinds of premiere things are gradually fading, and in the surrounding area, the lights of the movie theater have disappeared, and only the big screen of IMAX in the front is lit up, and on the big screen, there are many things that are gradually being revealed.
The movie has officially begun!
The movie does not pretend to be mysterious in the timeline, but follows the context and timeline of the original novel, and the story is also based on the story of "The Legend of Wukong".
After so many years of studying by Luo Mo's side, Shen Dan's ability is also very strong.
Before the movie was officially released, Luo Mo himself had seen the finished film of this movie, and he also knew the good things about this movie.
As the plot of the movie progresses, although many people have read the novel, they are still worried about the future fate of every character in the movie.
The total length of "The Legend of Wukong" is 147 minutes, and if it is not so long, it is indeed difficult to tell a story in its entirety.
The production of the movie is undoubtedly very sophisticated, and in the design of the image of the Monkey King, the traditional image of the Monkey King is still maintained, and this image is still designed with the most classic image of the six-year-old child, not the ugly Monkey King in Xing Ye's "Journey to the West".
And many other places are also more elegant, but the word exquisite can't be used like this, after all, Journey to the West is just a legendary thing, and there is no place to carefully study it, just that the outfits of these people do not give people a thunderous feeling, but it can also make many people feel that they are looking at their eyes.
This is also because "The Legend of Wukong" is the work of Shen Dan and their hard work.
In terms of plot, "The Legend of Wukong" has not dropped the chain, and it also has the feeling that the logical chain of Luo Mo's movie is very tight, the movie continues, every detail is quite good, and it can justify itself before and after, and it also fixes some bugs in the original novel, making the conspiracy behind it more clear.
Visually, "The Legend of Wukong" did not relax the visual requirements for this movie just because it was not a commercial blockbuster, and the two of them also have some common rules when making movies from Qianmo Entertainment Company - they would rather spend more money on the movie than never relax the requirements for quality.
Movies are released in 3D, IMAX3D, and 2D versions at the same time, and in this era, there are still a lot of cheating ...... in 3D movies There are even some crazy love films that have to be released in 3D format, which is really speechless, so "The Legend of Wukong" also provides you with a 2D option, of course, the 3D version was released at the premiere.
The 3D effect in "The Legend of Wukong" is still quite good, whether it is in general or from the perspective of the movie's screen effect, and the special effects of the movie are also very good......
In terms of feelings, the movie is also very successful.
When the movie advanced to the extreme, and advanced to the point where Sun Wukong finally faced the gods and Buddhas in the sky, and finally fell, many people were moved to cry.
Today's release of "The Legend of Wukong" is undoubtedly quite successful, and many people rushed back to write comments after watching it - "Brothers" and "The Legend of Wukong" let us see that China's film box office market is not only Luo Mo is such an optimus prime, in the decision he made at the beginning, in the growth of Qianmo Entertainment Company, there have been many filmmakers who have woken up, and they will bring more fresh impetus to Chinese films in such a fierce confrontation era, Chinese films, after all, there is still hope, And there is great hope. ”
Indeed, Qianmo Entertainment has cultivated many directors, and many films have emerged that can compete with Hollywood in the Chinese market.
Later, on September 30, "The Legend of Wukong" officially began to be released......
Starting from this day, "The Legend of Wukong" relied on its good reputation and everyone's strong expectations, as well as a good schedule to catch up, in the confrontation with that Hollywood blockbuster, it did not fall into disadvantage, and the box office on the first day rushed directly to 1. 700 million yuan, such a figure is a little lower than that Hollywood blockbuster, but on October 1, the single-day box office of "The Legend of Wukong" had 2. 200 million, breaking through 200 million in a single day.
At the end of the National Day file, the cumulative box office of "The Legend of Wukong" has reached 7. RMB 800 million...... And what followed was overwhelming praise from everyone.
Luo Mo was also very relieved to see such a movie, and sure enough, Qianmo Entertainment Company also has an increasingly powerful hematopoietic ability.
