Chapter 144: Battle Song Rings!
"Hahaha!"
It is not only an old man who was amused by these two promotional videos, especially Ye Wei's version, many fans and viewers are among them, if they are filmed and made into a collection, they will definitely be able to make people laugh.
These 5 minutes have lived up to the expectations that "Spoof's Past and Present Lives" has made film critics, VIy is not just saying that he is really doing it, and he is doing it well. They were pleasantly surprised, they saw a spoof, retro spirit, and innovative approach that was different from the mainstream of this era!
It's more explicit than "Duck Soup" and "Flying Forever", a bit of a technical shadow of the comedy "Annie Hall", and bolder than new-age spoofs like "Scream": this is a spoof movie, you know, so don't be so serious.
But this kind of funny that seems to be unserious and breaks by oneself does not make the audience play or feel bored, it is still in the story, absurd but has real feelings.
If the feature film can also have this look, or even more surprises, "The Wedding Date is Coming" will definitely be a masterpiece.
"Hi Scott, have you watched Ye Wei's promotional video?", "Great table, I'm going to participate in his screening. "I want to know what happened to him with the cake. β......
Scott Fondas, editor-in-chief of Los Angeles Weekly, Jonathan Foreman of The New York Times, Richard Rope, Albert & Rope...... It's all well-known film critics who smashed Rotten Tomatoes for "Laughter 3"!
Fondath scolded it for "just plain parody", Foreman said it was "banal parody", Roope said "the style is very lifeless", and Rope's show partner Albert said that "the film is full of famous and semi-famous faces, although only two are funny." β
They've had enough of the endless stupid, lazy parody, and now, "The Wedding Is Coming" ignites a ray of hope!
On the big screen, it seems that there are finally some really interesting spoofs for the old birds!
Who isn't curious? Who doesn't look forward to it? Quietly, a promotional trailer stirred up a lot of movement in the film critics' circles.
At the same time, ordinary followers are also excited, and messages are emerging on the message boards of VIy's official website, the official website of "The Wedding is Coming" and other places:
Samuel au: "Can't wait to see this movie, VIy's promo wins, LoL!" Zoya Yas said: "Of course it's VIy wins! I've watched it five times and laughed almost jaw-dislocating every time, no exaggeration." "I'm Ophra and said, "Weige is so good at acting, I want to see it just for his performance." β
"Why can I only see it in Los Angeles? I'm from San Francisco, when will it be released here?", "Dude, you can just drive over to San Francisco, I'm a Fremont native of Nebraska, and I don't have any hope." "I'm going to be a star chaser and fly to Los Angeles to see it......!"
The situation of the game is the same as the strength of the two sides, there is a huge disparity, and Ye Wei is currently far ahead of Ji Ya's 32% with 68% of the votes.
The Jiya version is not bad, but compared with Ye Wei's version, it loses a lot of everything.
Naturally, some of the people who voted for her genuinely preferred her version, and many voted because she was a girl, or because she had Cage. For example, like Lev, "I'm sorry Brother Wei, although you are my best friend and idol, Master Jiya is my goddess, hehe!"
There was also an ugly bribe, and Bard also voted for Jiya, "Brother Wei, Master Jiya really gave me a bottle of wine!"
Chen Nuo only promised not to do hacking to modify the number of jΓΉ, and Colwin, no one knew his choice.
Master Ji Ya called Ye Wei that night, and said viciously: "Damn genius, your version is awesome, but sue you, I will always chase you!
......
As expected, the event was successful in attracting media attention and coverage, both traditional and online, such as the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, Yahoo, USA Today, ...... The traffic on the official website has increased dramatically, and the popularity of related searches for Yahoo and Google has also soared!
Ye Wei's fame is rising in a straight line again! Even the "Loveviy" network has also become a small hit.

It's a pity that these people are not all from Los Angeles, but all over the United States and all regions of the world, and the Los Angeles IP accounts for less than 10% of them, and how many of them will really go to the show, it is unknown.
However, one thing that is certain is that the potential of "genius boy Ye Wei" is very huge, and everyone is interested in knowing what he will achieve! This is like a reality show with explosive ratings.
From the 5th to the 8th, the media started a new round of self-promotion of Ye Wei, readers love to watch, they love to report!
"A genius performance, VIy wins. -- Variety Daily; "The Wedding Is Coming" looks delicious!" - The Hollywood Reporter; The other side of the prodigy VIy you don't know: the sports chapter" - "People......
Looking at these changes, Lovett, Tracy and the others gradually became less happy, and became more solemn and worried, because this was not the state of affairs they wanted.
What they want is high expectations from the film critics and low popularity from the media, so that once the film critics kill "The Wedding is Coming", Ye Wei will disappear immediately. But now, not only has the skepticism of the film critics declined and the praise increased, Ye Wei's public popularity is still expanding!
The expectation value has reached its peak, but the popularity value continues to gallop like a crazy mustang!
"Lovett, people's interest in this kid seems to have exceeded our expectations......"
"I really don't understand, he's just an Asian kid!"
"The country is crazy again. β
"No, it won't...... No......"
Rise, rise, rise!
It's terrible!Brian's heart was also pounding, Gary Gozman had to swallow his unbelievable saliva, and then seriously communicated with IFc, although it was a bit realistic to go through the 5o theater in the second week, but it was better to be prepared, in case, he said that if Ye Wei did it, he really couldn't be in a hurry......
But several surprises have already made him scramble!
"Hopefully, this movie won't disappoint me. "Scott Fondath agreed to attend the screening!
"A movie is a movie, and I won't treat Ye Wei unfairly because of his age, whether it's good or bad. Jonathan Foreman promised to attend!
"The promo is very well done, I just hope it doesn't put out all the jokes. "Richard Ropee agreed to attend!
USA Today's Mike Clark, San Francisco Chronicle's Peter Hartloub, and The Seattle Times' Moira McDonald also agreed to attend.
With the participation of these mainstream media columnists and well-known film critics, the screening of "The Wedding is Coming" can be said to be star-studded!
On the night of the 8th, Gozman learned another new news, and almost sat on the ground in shock, IFc said that the old man agreed!
The God of Film Criticism, Roger Albert, was present at !!
"I'm not very demanding, and when I look at the audience, I laugh out loud 2o times with one thumb and 3o times with two thumbs. β
Equal to an average of 3-4. It's not easy to laugh once in 5 minutes, because people will get tired when they laugh and laugh, and the laughter must be stronger than one to maintain the "laugh out loud", not just smile, it's LoL!
But if you can invite this old man, you have to gamble.
This news made Brian and others, and the crew members of "The Wedding is Coming" excited, and Peter Heller and Sean Maurer were stunned, what kind of project did they join......? Incredible!

......
On Sunday, May 9th, the outside world was raising their voices, and Ye Wei was still in the editing room.
These days, there are always a lot of friends who text and email him, asking when he will reappear, he has "disappeared" for more than half a month, he can't be seen anywhere, usually forget it, he doesn't participate in any important school activities, like the junior high school dance held yesterday at the Santa Monica Beach Hotel in Loews, he didn't go.
Who wouldn't go to the ball? Even if they were on crutches, they couldn't help but sigh, but Brother Wei was too cruel to himself.
This also made Lily have no male companion yesterday, and countless people wanted to be her male companion, but she just played with friends such as Trist and Connie and Lev and Bard.
Ye Wei really seemed to have been kidnapped by someone and locked up in a dungeon, no one could find him, and when he called, he said, "I'm busy", and ended the call after a few words. If it weren't for Master Gia's solemn statement that she hadn't done anything, they would have been calling 911.
Ye Wei didn't deceive his friends, he was really busy, after these days of hard work, he could complete the fine cut version in the next two days!
The closer he got to that finish, the more energetic he ran, and how could he be willing to leave here to dance?
He couldn't see his own eyes, Suzanne said that they were red like "vampire eyes", and said that he was a little haggard, working so hard for half a month, just a little haggard, and he could already be called an iron man.
Anyway, at night again, Ye Wei was still sitting at his desk like a demon, looking at several screens, and playing a game of editing Rubik's Cube.
Da-da-da! I don't know when there was a knock on the door of the editing room.
Who? I haven't tried anyone to come at night, and I haven't ordered takeout, I have used black bread for dinner these days, Ye Wei looked at him suspiciously, "Come in." β
The door opened, and I saw a slim girl, dressed in a white T-shirt and a dark blue skirt, with two heroic thick eyebrows, a smile on her face, and a refreshing voice: "I'm here to visit the class." β
Lily.
"Hi ......" Ye Wei suddenly wiped his face a little unnaturally, and his heart was beating excitedly, although he would text every day, he felt like he hadn't seen her for a long time.
"Surprise? I don't want to call you first, or you might not let me come. Lily walked in with her hands behind her back, her eyes looking around, and then stopped on his face, a gentle glint in her eyes, "I miss you, I want to see you." β
Ye Wei smiled and nodded, "Okay, me too." Sorry yesterday, but the clip is almost finished......"
"I know. Lily came quietly, "You go about your work, don't let me disturb you, I'll be quiet!" But there are a few small cakes here, ding-ding!" She stretched out her hands behind her back, holding a box of five or six small cakes in her left hand and making a display in her right hand.
"Wow, thank you!" Ye Weizhen was a little surprised, smelling the aroma, a burst of hunger suddenly surged up, and he quickly got up to get it and ate it immediately.
After several days of black bread dinner, eating this sweet and smooth little cake, he couldn't help but look ugly, he almost took one bite at a time, very Bard's style, stuffed his mouth all over, and said vaguely: "It's delicious, it's delicious......"
Lily said amusedly and surprised, "Eat slowly! you haven't eaten dinner yet, have you?"
"No, no...... It's just that they're so delicious......" Ye Wei shook his head and continued to kill the entire box of six cakes like a wolf, and then sat back comfortably in the chair and leaned against the back of the chair.
Sure enough, after serving his stomach, he will be more inspired, he looked at the screen, and came up with some new ideas for this shot, and immediately wanted to try, so he had to say: "Lily, I really have to be busy with work first, you can do whatever you want." "It's kind of ungraceful to do that, but now editing comes first.
"Good. Lily answered, first standing behind him, and after a while, then moved a chair and sat next to him, quietly watching him edit.
His earnestness and hard work made her heart move, and his haggard and silent made her feel distressed, thinking about something, and gradually became a little crazy.
Ye Wei suddenly turned his head to look at her, smiled, she smiled too, looked at each other, and the youth that had not seen each other for a while turned into sweetness.
His heart is as warm as being sunburned, and it's good to have you by your side on the road to chasing his dreams, "Lily, there are some things I want to tell you." β
"Huh?"
Without saying anything, Ye Wei took the pen and paper on the table, wrote something on a light blue label paper, and handed it to her.
When Lily saw it, her eyes immediately brightened, and her smile became brighter, revealing her teeth, and she saw that it read: "Your smile has filled my melancholy heart with innocent happiness, and your brilliant sun-like countenance has left a ray of light that makes my heart bright." β
Her heart was sweet, "Byron's poem "I've seen you cry", I remember correctly, right?"
"Yes, Byron's poem, but my heart. He shrugged.
She leaned sideways over his shoulder, "I'm still bothering you." β
"The sun disturbs the darkness. Ye Wei was about to hug her.
Lily pushed him away with a smile, sat upright, plucked up a fighting spirit, raised her clenched fists, and shouted to him, "Go on working, maybe the girls are being turned upside down by the boy's love words, and as for us, we will taste it again when we come ashore!"
Ye Wei couldn't help laughing, but his blood was also boiling, "Yes, my Valkyrie!"
