Chapter 50: Depowdering

At 10 a.m. on July 6, at the entrance of a cinema in Shanghai.

Tian Xiaoling stood at the entrance of the theater and sent a message to her girlfriend with her mobile phone, "Huihui, I've arrived at the cinema, how long do you have left?" ”

My best friend Yao Hui quickly replied: "I'm still on the subway, I should be there in 20 minutes." ”

"Okay, then I'll go get the ticket first, and send me a message when you arrive."

"Okay."

Tian Xiaoling put away her mobile phone, walked into the theater, and lined up to get tickets.

She is a sophomore, because her favorite actor Li Hao played a supporting role in "Dream Chaser", and it happened that the school was also on summer vacation recently, so the movie was just released today, and she called her roommate and best friend Yao Hui in Shanghai to watch it together.

After picking up the movie ticket, she sat in the lounge area of the hall and played with her mobile phone.

After a while, Yao Hui sent a message saying that she had arrived at the door of the theater.

"You come in and look to the right, I'm here." After sending the message, Tian Xiaoling stood up and waved her hand in the direction of the door, "Huihui, I'm here." ”

At one meter seven, she is wearing a white top and a short black skirt, with a beautiful face and fair skin, and her whole person exudes the youthful vitality of a young girl.

Yao Hui glanced to the right side of the hall after entering the door, and saw her at a glance, trotting over.

"It's so hot, what's so good about the movie, I still want to stay at home and blow the air conditioner more, if you hadn't called me out, I wouldn't have stepped out of the house."

In July in Shanghai, the weather was very hot, and after standing outside the door for a while, Yao Hui's forehead oozed fine beads of sweat, and she wiped it with a tissue while talking.

Fortunately, the air conditioning in the theater is sufficient, and although there are many people in the hall, it is still very cool.

"Oops." Tian Xiaoling shook her arm, "As compensation, it's not okay for me to invite you to a drink." ”

"That's pretty much it." Yao Hui nodded in satisfaction.

Tian Xiaoling took out two movie tickets from her pocket and looked at the time, "The movie is still ten minutes away, let's go buy drinks and popcorn first, and then just check in to enter the ticket." ”

Yao Hui threw the tissue into the trash, "Then what are you waiting for, let's go." ”

After the two finished shopping, they lined up to check the tickets, walked into the screening hall and found a seat to sit down.

Fortunately, Tian Xiaoling booked tickets online a few days in advance, so their seats were in the middle of the fifth row, which was the best viewing position.

After putting the Coke and popcorn away, Yao Hui turned her head and looked around, and saw that almost half of the theater was full of people, and said, "There are quite a lot of people, is this movie very popular?" ”

She doesn't watch much movies on weekdays, and her understanding of "Dream Chaser" comes from chatting with Tian Xiaoling on weekdays.

Tian Xiaoling replied: "Yes, it's really popular recently, and many people on the Internet say that director Wu Xiaofei is very good." ”

Yao Hui thought for a while and asked, "No, if "Dream Chaser" was filmed well, why didn't Wu Xiaofei win an award at the Yenching Film Festival?" I still remember that the Best Director Award was not taken away by another director named Fang Bo. ”

Although she rarely watches movies, she watched the award ceremony of the newcomer unit of the film festival with Tian Xiaoling before, and vaguely remembers that the award result of "Dream Chaser" was very bleak.

"I don't know." Tian Xiaoling shook her head, "I read what I said on the Internet." ”

"Whatever, the movie will start soon, whether it's good or not, you'll know after watching it." Yao Hui picked up Coke and took a sip, holding a bucket of popcorn, ready to watch the movie.

After two or three minutes, the lights in the screening room gradually went out.

The noise in the theater suddenly disappeared, and everyone sat up straight and looked up at the big screen in front of them.

With the golden dragon logo appearing on the screen, the screening began.

Because there are favorite actors who play in it, and I have seen a lot of remarks praising Wu Xiaofei on the Internet, Tian Xiaoling is quite looking forward to "Dream Chaser", and she happily called her best friend to watch it together.

But soon after the movie started, she felt that something was wrong.

The person in charge of editing this movie seems to be a novice, and at the beginning, several shots are switched continuously, and she is confused.

After that, the outrageous plot development made her frown, and finally waited for the supporting role played by Li Hao to appear, she just had a little interest in watching the movie, and was frightened by Li Hao's exaggerated performance.

Can this performance be a little heavier?

Tian Xiaoling is a fan, and he was originally a fan of Li Hao's handsome face, although his face is still very handsome in the movie, but his exaggerated performance and exaggerated body movements really make it impossible to enter the play.

Tian Xiaoling frowned more and more when she looked at it, didn't the Internet say that Wu Xiaofei filmed very well, how could it be like this?

"I feel like the plot is so bloody, it's my girlfriend's cheating and a car accident." Looking at it, Yao Hui couldn't help it, turned her head and whispered.

Tian Xiaoling nodded in agreement and agreed: "I also think that this plot is too outrageous, the actors are also acting very hard, and the traces of the performance are too obvious." ”

It's true that she is Li Hao's fan, but she is not a brainless fan, her thinking is still very normal, a good movie is good, and if it is not good, even if there is a favorite actor to star, she will not praise it against her will.

And seeing Li Hao's exaggerated performance in "Dream Chaser", even though she is still handsome, no matter how she looks at it, she feels spicy, and even has a feeling of wanting to take off her powder.

It's not just the two of them who complain about the movie, everyone was watching the movie quietly, but seeing such a bad movie, other audiences couldn't help but discuss it in a low voice.

The once quiet auditorium gradually became noisy.

In the second half of the movie, the plot is even more bizarre, and various bloody incidents appear in turn, and they all end with a forcibly positive result, which cannot mobilize the emotions of the viewers at all.

The plot is outrageous, the lines are pretentious, and the actors are embarrassed, it is not an exaggeration to say that watching this movie is simply challenging the audience's psychological endurance.

Before the movie ended, there were already some people in the theater who couldn't stand it and chose to leave early.

Although Tian Xiaoling and Yao Hui were still sitting in their seats and did not leave, they were not in the mood to watch a movie at this time, one was concentrating on eating popcorn, and the other was looking down on his mobile phone, just to enjoy the air conditioning of the theater for a while.

stayed up until the end of the movie, and they walked out of the theater.

Yao Hui stretched her waist and said: "I finally know why Wu Xiaofei can't win the award, he made "Dream Chaser" so badly, it's strange that he can win the award." ”

Tian Xiaoling on the side didn't speak, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, and after unlocking the screen, the wallpaper was a still of Li Hao.

In the past, when she looked at this picture, she felt handsome, but now after seeing Li Hao's spicy performance in "Dream Chaser", that idol halo seems to have disappeared all of a sudden, and she only feels ordinary when she looks at it again.

She stared at the phone screen for a long time, and found that she really couldn't find the feeling she had before, so she had to shake her head and change the wallpaper.

I didn't expect a bad movie to have such a great power, so that Yan Fan Tian Xiaoling couldn't help but lose her fans.
