Chapter 8: Completion and Release

Then, the question arises.

At that time, Zhang Bozhi had just finished filming "Can't Forget", and next year she will win the award of Best Actress at the 23rd Xiangjiang Film Awards with this movie.

It is precisely because of this that at this time, Zuo Mu found that it was difficult for Zhang Bozhi in the lens to enter the state he wanted no matter what.

It's still the style of a romance movie.

“cut! Not ruthless enough! Again! ”

“Cut! Be a little harder! ”

Just a shot of smashing the masked man into the sea, Zuo Mu took it more than ten times, but Zhang Bozhi still didn't have that taste.

"Cut, take a break, Bo Zhi, come here."

Zuo Mu asked expressionlessly, "You tell me what you think?" ”

"Zuo Dao, I...."Zhang Bozhi was a little speechless.

"Isn't it hard to get into the play?" Zuo Mu rubbed his temples and said.

Zhang Bozhi nodded helplessly.

But in fact, so far Zuo Mu is very satisfied with Zhang Bozhi's performance, but it is difficult for her to show ruthlessness.

The root cause is that she hasn't been a mother yet.

The heroine's biggest obsession in the original book is her own child, and she is boarding this infinite loop cruise ship again and again for her child.

For the sake of his children, he killed all the people on the ship again and again, and even he was merciless.

But now Zhang Bozhi can't understand this feeling.

"Ting Feng, come here!" Zuo Mu beckoned to Xie Shuai, who was resting on the side.

"Bo Zhi, you are like this, forget about the child, replace it with Ting Feng, you are trapped on the boat, Ting Feng is still waiting for you at home, you can only go home to see Ting Feng if you kill all the people on the boat!"

Zuo Mu decided to turn her family affection, which is still incomprehensible, into love.

Xie Tingfeng was a little embarrassed to hear it, but Zhang Bozhi was generous.

"I understand Zuo Dao, I'll brew it."

"Okay, all units ready!"

After shouting, Zuo Mu saw that Zhang Bozhi's mood immediately changed.

“Action!”

Then, Cecilia Cheung perfectly interpreted how terrifying a woman in love is.

Zuo Mu looked at Zhang Bozhi in the camera and smashed the action actor who played the masked man into the sea with an axe, and the props and axes were all broken for her.

Zhang Bozhi's fierce expression in the camera far exceeded his expectations.

“Cut! Save people, save people! ”

Everyone hurriedly went to the sea to fish for people, while Xie Tingfeng stood by the camera and shivered.

After Zhang Bozhi found his feelings, the subsequent shooting can be described as a thousand miles, even God favored him, and there were no clouds during the shooting.

"Horror Cruise" is a movie with a single scene, because of the large investment, the high-end lighting set is invited, and the relationship between the characters is not complicated.

The outside world is still talking about whether this 60 million masterpiece is the time when the second ancestor spends a lot of money to make girls.

"Horror Cruise" has been completed.

From the announcement of the start of production on September 18 to the announcement of completion on October 15, it lasted a total of 28 days.

When everyone was still amazed that this second ancestor was really fast, on October 20, Zuo Mu had already taken the cut film to see Zou Wenhuai.

"Director Zuo, you're really amazing... Accidental. Zou Wenhuai's hand was still trembling a little when he touched the master tape.

More than 50 million, it was used up in less than a month, and the king of sunglasses didn't have Zuo Mu to spend it.

Yes, for this film that was filmed for less than a month, Zuo Mu spent nearly 55 million.

Zuo Mu, who had been on the boat for nearly a month, had a lot of tan, but his face was full of a confident smile.

"Old Zou, you will feel that it is worth it after finishing the film first."

On October 22, the entertainment pages of major newspapers and magazines in Xiangjiang were washed by a headline.

The caption reads: "Halloween Night, Swim with You!" ”

Under the title, there is a picture of Zhang Bozhi chasing Xuan Xuan, and then seeing a poster on the deck full of Xuan Xuan's corpse.

Zuo Mu used all the remaining more than 10 million for publicity, and he wanted to push the reputation of "Horror Cruise" to the highest point before Halloween.

Zou Wenhuai even publicly said: ""Horror Cruise" will become the only god in the field of Xiangjiang thrillers. ”

Later, Hong Jinbao also said in an interview: ""Horror Cruise" is the best suspense thriller since the opening of Xiangjiang Port! ”

The citizens of Xiangjiang were stunned, and the super high evaluation of the two film industry bigwigs infinitely raised their expectations.

But there are still many more people who say they won't see it.

Despite this, "Horror Cruise" was definitely the hottest topic in Xiangjiang that month.

And Zuo Mu's eyes are not only focused on Xiangjiang.

On October 28, "Horror Cruise" premiered.

Zuo Mu invited almost all film critics and entertainment media in Xiangjiang to watch, he didn't have many acquaintances in the film and television industry, only invited Zou Wenhuai and Hong Jinbao, and the rest were Zhang Bozhi, Xie Tingfeng, some friends of Xuan Xuan and some viewers who got tickets.

Of course, Zuo Mu also specially invited a real investor, his dear sister Zuo Mi, but she was not available.

Under Golden Harvest's slightly eerie opening music, the movie officially begins.

During the 90-minute movie, the entire movie theater was silent, and only some heavy breathing could be faintly heard.

No one left their seats.

Until the end of the film screening, the media and film critics who watched the film still sat in their chairs and pondered.

October 29th.

Major film critics spoke out on the entertainment edition:

"The most unmissable suspense thriller of the 21st century!"

"If I have seen it once, I will watch it a second or even a third time on the day of the official release."

"The uncrowned king of suspense thrillers!"

All praise, without a single question.

The heat is still fermenting, and now even those citizens who originally expressed their interest have been whetted and are looking forward to the official release on November 1.

In the lean office, Zuo Mi looked at the newspaper calmly.

"Lucy, all the staff will have a day off on Halloween, and then give each employee a movie ticket for 'Horror Cruise'."

Zuo Mi pressed the landline in front of him and commanded.

"President, tickets for November 1 have been sold out in advance."

Zuomi was stunned as he listened to his secretary Lucy's reply, and then showed a charming smile.

Finally, it was 11:50 a.m. on October 31.

There were long queues in front of major theaters, and people were talking about this movie, which had dominated the headlines for nearly ten days.

At 23:55, people entered the venue one after another.

On November 1st, at 0:00 in the morning, with the factory logo of Golden Harvest, "Horror Cruise" began to be released.

Not only Xiangjiang, but also many theaters in Europe and the United States thousands of miles away have painted this "Horror Cruise", but because the time is relatively rushed, the publicity is not very good.

Only a few people bought tickets and walked into the exhibition hall of "Horror Cruise".

Thomas is a screenwriter and an avid fan of suspense thrillers.

Walking by the cinema, he accidentally glanced at this Chinese suspense thriller called "Horror Cruise", and the picture on the poster immediately attracted him.

He has watched a lot of Chinese suspense thrillers, which are basically written about demons and monsters throughout, although the special effects and actions are good, but they lack novelty.

But this one made him feel different.
