To be honest, if "Red Cliff" was filmed by Gu Cancan, she would never let "Red Cliff" be screened, at most cut out a trailer of various big scenes, and then find a water army to blow it up, with so many big-name star actors joining, the box office will definitely be able to harvest it at that time.

However, Wu Yusen is probably too confident in his fame and directing level, thinking that mainland audiences like to be funny in ancient costumes?

Anyway, Gu Cancan can't understand why "Red Cliff" was filmed like this.

The closer it gets to the National Day file, the more chaotic the film market begins.

Although "Keep Talking" was promoted for ten days in order to avoid "Red Cliff" and "Sword Rain", people did not give up publicity, after all, it was starring Gu Tianle, and Gu Zai has a large number of fans in the mainland, including Gu Cancan, who is a fan of Gu Tianle.

On September 20, "Keep Talking" premiered, and Gu Cancan also went to cheer for it, she and Gu Tian Le are a little friendly, and the two filmed commercials together two years ago.

After all, no matter how many artists there are in a company, if you want to go to a movie, not all the actors may be able to find a suitable one from your own company, so you need to invite actors from other companies.

The box office of "Keep Talking" was 6.5 million on the first day, which cannot be said to be a failure, but it is definitely not high.

I have to say that Xiangjiang films are getting less and less valued in the mainland, and their influence is getting smaller and smaller, and if they don't show enough sincerity, it will be more and more difficult for Xiangjiang films to make money in the mainland.

Gu Cancan no longer pays attention to other people's movies, and she still puts most of her mind on the post-production of "Heartbreaker".

"Heartbreaker" has some special effects, and the foreign special effects company that began to look for in the bright era, the other party's offer scared Gu Cancan, just the special effects of the flying car and the future city, the price exceeded the cost of the film.

Gu Cancan thought about it again and again, but still chose a domestic special effects company.

The level of Tiangong's special effects is indeed not as good as that of top special effects companies such as foreign industrial light and magic, but in the world, it is also medium, and it has been following foreign outsourcing work.

At this time, on the Internet, the discussion posts of "Red Cliff" and "Sword Rain" have become the mainstream of various film and television sectors.

"As someone who has watched both "Red Cliff" and "Rain of Swords", I feel that I am qualified to comment on these two movies.

Some scenes in "Red Cliff" are indeed grand, but the whole movie has no sense of history, and I have to say that Director Xiangjiang's understanding of history is still a little biased. As for "Rain of Swords", the storyline is very novel, and the character settings are quite interesting, especially the changing faces of the characters. Overall, both films are worth a trip to the cinema. ”

"Upstairs is fair on the surface, but in fact, it is stepping on "Red Cliff". What status does Wu Yusen have, what status does Su Zhaobin have, and the two can be compared? Upstairs is the navy of the bright era, right? ”

"I also think that "Red Cliff" gathers such a well-known acting school, Wu Yusen has directed so many Hollywood movies without pressure, Su Zhaobin has never heard of it before. Obviously, "Sword Rain" will rush to grandma's house. ”

"It's also drunk to talk about Wu Yusen, and the movie still depends on quality. If you want to talk about the director, why don't you say that Paramount, which Wu Yusen paid for directing "The Wind Whisperer", almost went out of business, Lao Wu just came to the mainland to cheat money because he couldn't get along in Hollywood, which I can't understand. Lao Wu did make a lot of good films, but he couldn't handle the big scenes, I didn't watch "Sword Rain" and didn't comment on it, and waited for the reputation of "Red Cliff" to collapse. ”

"No matter how bad Wu Yusen is, he is better than Su Zhaobin, Su has never made a martial arts film before, Wu has at least directed big scenes, I think "Sword Rain" will be crushed by "Red Cliff".

"But looking at the cast, "Rain of Swords" loses."

There is a heated discussion on the Internet, but in general, they are not optimistic about "Sword Rain" and "Red Cliff".

The main creative teams of the two movies also did their best to promote the movies, you participate in variety shows, I will participate in interviews, approaching the National Day schedule, in the entertainment news, a considerable part of it is the news of the two movies, China Film and Bright Times have done their best.

The time has finally come to the National Day.

The National Day file is basically a contest between "Red Cliff" and "Sword Rain".

"Red Cliff" accounted for 54% of the film schedule, "Sword Rain" accounted for 26%, and the rest of the films trembled in the rest of the film schedule.

Zhang Tao took the hand of the new blind date and walked into the cinema.

As a blind date, Zhang Tao has experienced dozens of blind dates, from seeing the blind date at a loss to the current witty words, a period of food can hold the girl's little hand, and become an old driver with an amazing growth rate.

"Today's premiere of "Rain of Swords", I have already booked tickets, wait for me, I will buy popcorn and Coke." Zhang Tao said very gently.

"Hmm." The little girl on the blind date nodded shyly and agreed, this is a blind date chick, and Zhang Tao couldn't find the north after a meal.

After buying popcorn and Coke, Zhang Tao walked over quickly, sat on the waiting seat with the little girl, and waited for the movie to open and check the tickets.

chatting with the little girl with a match, Zhang Tao found that there were obviously many more people who bought movie tickets for "Red Cliff" than for "Rain of Swords", and the film schedule was far inferior to "Red Cliff", so he couldn't help but worry about Gu Cancan.

Soon the two entered the screening room.

Zhang Tao has always had no distractions when watching movies, he no longer cares about the blind date girl around him, and watches the movie attentively.

Wow, the drizzle played by Gu Cancan in the opening scene is amazing.

Wow, the emotional drama between Drizzle and Lu Zhu is interesting.

I'll go! Lu Zhu is dead! The drizzle is going to change its face!

Zhang Tao straightened his body, and he didn't even care about eating popcorn, let alone the resentful eyes of the little girl next to him.

While watching, Zhang Tao pondered in his heart, looking at this beginning, "Sword Rain" is not only a traditional martial arts film, but also has an obvious anti-traditional style.

It centers on female characters and radiates out, depicting a series of group portraits of rivers and lakes.

Although there is no chivalry in the ancient sense, it is convincing, this is the true face of the rivers and lakes.

?“ is a bit like in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Yu Xiulian escorted into Beijing, and the Beijing city well she walked through was lifelike. Su Zhaobin's directing level is underestimated. Zhang Tao secretly commented in his heart.

Indeed, most people don't dare to shoot like this, and after more than twenty minutes, almost a fifth of the way through the movie, the male protagonist was allowed to appear.

"Haha, interesting!"

When the male advocate Zhenyi appeared, many people laughed, including Zhang Tao.

No way, coarse cloth clothes, a slightly yellow face, holding a billboard, and a funny two-handed mustache, just a capital turtle.

Zhang Zhen originally had a long face, and when he usually showed his face in public, he also looked bitter and hateful, but now this dress has a kind of contrast and cuteness.

?“ Deliver the letter packet, seventeen dollars inside the city, three outside the city, uh, add three dollars......" The little doll stumbled and read the words on the wooden board in Zhang Zhen's hand.

A man who looked like a guy from the pharmacy came over and said hurriedly: "Jiang Asheng, hurry up and send this ginseng to Liu Yuanwai's mansion in the west of the city, his old lady is almost out of breath, and she urgently needs ginseng to hang her life!" ”

"Okay, no problem!"

Jiang Asheng took the medicinal herbs, ran away, walked through the market house, passed by Chen Ji Oil Shop, and almost hit an old man walking around the corner, and soon ran to Liu Yuanwai's house.

Then the camera turned, and he appeared in front of Cai Po's stall again, took out a string of copper coins, and said with a smile: "Auntie, this month's rent." ”

"Hey, he's the one Zhang Renfeng, right?" The blind date girl touched Zhang Tao's arm, leaned into his ear and whispered a question.

"It should be." Zhang Tao whispered: "Look at the back." ”

"Oh." The blind date girl pursed her lips and sat up right aggrieved.

There were also a few whispers from the rest of the audience.

"It should be Zhang Renfeng, right?"

?“ may be a new character, isn't Zhang Renfeng dead? ”

The audience was a little confused and couldn't help but whisper.

In these sketches, Jiang Asheng's identity is very clear: the bottom, poor, running errands for a living, and also Cai Po's tenant.

But it is this clarity that makes the audience suspicious, and they dare not be sure, because there is no trace to be found, as if the characters appeared out of thin air.

"Boom! Crash! ”

With a thunderclap, a shower fell.

In the movie, this place is located in the south of the Yangtze River, which coincides with the rainy season and the weather is unpredictable.

Zeng Jing's cloth stall was next to Cai Po, and she was busy cleaning up when she accidentally touched a piece of cloth.

"I'll help you!" Seeing this, Jiang Asheng got up and went over.

The music here is wonderful, soft and ethereal, and the sound of the piano rings in your ears.

The two of them pulled a piece of linoleum cloth and just covered it, the wind stopped raining, but the weather was sunny.

Zeng Jing looked up and said softly: "Thank you!" ”

"You're welcome!"

Jiang Asheng was shy and turned to leave.

"He's called Jiang Asheng, he only moved here last month, and he specializes in helping people run errands."

Cai Po gave full play to her gossip expertise in time and said: "He is the same as you, he is also single, but you will be different soon, I will arrange it for you tonight!" ”

This is the only laugh in the film.

Cai Po took Zeng Jing on a blind date, and a group of strange-shaped men made the audience happy.

"Mom, spicy eyes!" The little girl on a blind date laughed and trembled, and her shoulders touched Zhang Tao's shoulders.

Although Zhang Tao is obsessed with movies, he still trembles in his heart at this moment, and an inexplicable feeling rises in his heart.

Although it can't be compared with Gu Cancan, it actually looks quite cute.

He couldn't help but be a little distracted.

The film continues.

"Rain of Swords" does not revolve around the protagonist all the time, and the roles of others are relatively even.

After the first encounter between the hero and heroine, it was Ye Feiqing's role.

I saw Xin Zhilei kneeling in white clothes above the court, her head bowed, her long hair messy.

A messenger read: "Ye Feiqing, a folk girl, killed three members of her husband's family, her heart is vicious, and her crime is unforgivable." The county will decide tomorrow! ”

With that shocking sound, Xin Zhilei looked up, only to see a few drops of dried blood on her expressionless face, and her two eyes were like gray black beads, without a trace of life.

"Wow!"

The audience inhaled, this appearance was both stunning and terrifying.

"Who is this girl?"

"Newcomer, it's not particularly beautiful, but the temperament is really unique."

"Cool."

Xin Zhilei is not a peerless beauty, but her stubborn temperament is impressive. Because she has this temperament, it is very suitable to play a female killer with a hard heart.

It was another torrential rain, Jiang Asheng helped Zeng Jing set up the felt cloth, and Zeng Jing pointed to the opposite side, where there was a tea shop. The two of them covered their heads with their hands and trotted under the eaves of the tea shop.

The clever shopkeeper came out and said with a smile: "This rain, it's hard to stop for a while, don't just stand outside the door, come in and sit, and have a cup of tea." ”

"Tea, sounds good." Zhang Zhen had a serious face.

"Trumpet just got a dried fruit preserve, come in and try it."

"I like the preserves, too." Zhang Zhen still has a serious face.

“……”

Zeng Jing didn't hear it, stretched out his hand to probe, felt the rain gradually soften, and said, "Thank you today!" ”

With that, they left again.

Jiang Asheng and his buddies sighed together: "If it rains a few more drops, will you die?" ”

"Hahahaha!" The blind date girl's laughter seems to be very low, and at this moment, she fell on Zhang Tao with a smile.

With a salty smile on his face, Zhang Tao slowly stretched out his right hand and put it on the girl's shoulder.

The laughter stopped, but she didn't move, just leaned silently.

The other viewers also chuckled, and they also noticed that this was indeed different from previous martial arts films.

For Jiang Asheng's deliberate courtesy, Zeng Jing refused at first.

She even asked an old man to pretend to send a letter, so that Jiang Asheng was punched three times for nothing.

The original intention was to make the other party stop harassing, but the result was ......

The clumsy guy appeared in the heavy rain and with dark blue circles under his eyes.

He ran past the cloth stall, and had to take a few more steps in a fake way, and then wiped his body back, and said with a smile: "Just passing by, I'll help you clean up." ”

"......" Zeng Jing's eyes suddenly deepened.

Yu Feihong's performance here is specially prepared, and a change in her eyes makes the audience understand that she is already tempted.

Zeng Jing went to the monk again and knelt on the ground: "Can life start all over again?"

The old monk held the ring ruler and knocked her back: "The heart is unattainable in the past, the heart is unattainable now, and the heart is unattainable in the future, go with your heart, look, can you get it?" ”

This line made many viewers feel inexplicably moved.

Some movies are very long, seemingly ups and downs, slow and urgent, but in fact, they are all nonsense and nonsense.

According to the structure of the script, the first part of "Sword Rain" is the past of the drizzle, the present is Zeng Jing's present, and there is an unpredictable future, which are interlocking and repeatedly laid out.

A husband and wife, one is a cold female killer, and the other is a simple and poor boy.

Needless to say, the dramatic tension has long been on the surface. is super interesting for Mao's "True Lies" and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", because of this "identity hidden" setting, which naturally brings a sense of conflict.

"Sword Rain" has three suspense from the audience, one is Zeng Jing's identity, one is Jiang Asheng's identity, and the other is the identity of the Wheel King.

Every time you unravel one, it's a high-rise tide.

Now, Zeng Jing's suspense is unraveled for the audience, but the people in the play don't know.

After the two got married, they lived a dull life of firewood, rice, oil and salt, worried about this month's overspending, and worried about next month's taxes.

The guys who were skeptical about this film before have all shut up, even if they haven't watched the follow-up content, just seeing this, they can conclude that this is a good movie.

Zhang Tao also exhaled a long breath, and the movies produced in the bright era did not disappoint.
