Chapter 141: Both Joy and Sorrow [Third Update] [This Chapter is Free]
As the big screen slowly lights up, a story about online violence begins to unfold slowly.
Wan Qian's beautiful image of an urban beauty attracted the audience's attention from the first appearance. It's just that the reversal came too suddenly, and as soon as the audience met the heroine, she was going to die.
Compared with Chen Shishi, Zhang Mu's heart is colder and his methods are more cruel.
He didn't leave much warmth for the audience, nor did he say too much nonsense, showing the urgency of urban life in front of the audience's eyes from the beginning.
In other words, although it is rare to see the phenomenon of giving up seats to the elderly in Europe and the United States, there are actually some similarities between the East and the West regarding certain moral standards.
It's like when on the Titanic, some young men who abided by the spirit of gentlemen insisted on letting the old and weak women and children leave first, but finally sank to the bottom of the sea.
Of course, it's one thing to know, it's another thing to comply.
In the current European and American world, no one pays attention to those outdated traditions. They prefer "democracy" and "freedom" to gentlemen.
Therefore, although they disagree with the concept of respecting the old and loving the young in the movie, they can understand it.
However, as the film slowly unfolded, audiences from all over the world in the audience could not care about these differences in concepts.
When they saw Ye Lanqiu's career and life ruined because of a trivial thing that was not even a mistake, all the audience almost couldn't help but feel a chill in their backs.
Some viewers use the Internet on a regular basis, but because of the different levels of popularity in their respective countries, there may not be such incidents of online violence in their countries.
But at the same time, it is not difficult for them to understand this phenomenon.
As the movie slowly unfolds, they know very well in their hearts that such things are also likely to happen to themselves from the country.
Because it's not about local traditions, it's about human nature!
Before watching this movie, almost everyone was enjoying the convenience brought by the Internet age.
But they never imagined that through the Internet, the evil of human nature could be magnified to such an extent!
Such a situation is undoubtedly frightening.
When the movie was gradually coming to an end, Zhang Mu quietly looked back.
He found that most of the angry expressions in the audience were young people, and they all seemed to be indignant about what happened to Ye Lanqiu.
But most of the people with frightened eyes and sweating profusely are older people.
It can even be said that the older the audience, the more frightened they will be after watching the movie at the moment.
Because they can't get any help or reference from past experiences. This sense of helplessness has deepened their fear to some extent.
In the end, when Ye Lanqiu jumped from the high rooftop, the whole movie completely fell into freezing.
This time, Zhang Mu did not use love to spice up, and everything came to an abrupt end in the cold wind of June.
So when the movie ended, everyone in the audience only felt that their chests were suppressed and breathless.
It's as if the unfinished words of the movie are being embodied in them at the moment.
For a moment, the entire screening hall fell into an eerie silence.
Only the ending song "Under the Sea" remains, which slowly echoes in the screening room.
Although the words are incomprehensible, the audience can still feel the desperate and bleak singing.
So, suffocation adds another layer!
Wan Qian and the little fairy, who came back from the movie, saw this situation, and immediately looked at Zhang Mu with a worried face, wanting to ask something, but they didn't dare to speak, lest they mess things up.
It wasn't until Wan Qian's theme song "Under the Sea" was nearing the end that a burst of violent applause suddenly broke out in the audience.
There are even some viewers shouting something in the language of various countries, as if they can't relieve the depression in their hearts.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Mu, Chen Daoming and others were relieved.
As the director, Zhang Mu immediately took the actors to get up and accept the applause of the audience.
Because they deserve it.
Compared with the ceremonial applause at the beginning, this time it is obviously much more sincere and warm.
But the enthusiasm of the audience was still beyond Zhang Mu's imagination, and they gave a standing ovation for 6 minutes before they sat down.
Zhang Mu couldn't help but think to himself, maybe it wasn't because of how much they liked this movie, but because after watching this movie, they all held their breath and wanted to vent.
When the lights in the screening hall came on again, many audiences suddenly began to rush towards Zhang Mu, expressing their shock in various languages.
Originally, the people from Legendary Pictures still wanted to chat with Zhang Mu, but seeing this situation, they could only make an appointment with Zhang Mu for a time and left in a hurry.
Surrounded by audiences, almost every actor in the crew was surrounded by a group of audiences, reporters and film critics.
It wasn't until the staff of the organizing committee heard the news and came to relieve the siege and promised to add a few more screenings temporarily, that Zhang Mu and others were able to get out.
When several people left the movie palace, they looked at each other's somewhat embarrassed figures, and suddenly couldn't help but look at each other and laugh.
Well, it's the little fairy who laughs the most, and she doesn't care about her image at all.
……
That night, the three major magazines, "Screen", "Variety" and "The Hollywood Reporter", updated their information and gave "Search" the highest score of 3.5.
This made Zhang Mu both happy and worried.
Of course, the highest score in the house magazine is worth celebrating, which shows that the audience is indeed very optimistic about "Search".
But the problem is that it is useless to think that the three major field journals are good, and the final decision is still in the hands of the judges. And the judges have always liked to work against the venue magazine, otherwise where would the rumors of "the heat will die".
But no matter what he thinks, everything he can do at this point has already been done, and the rest can only be left to Providence.
So he let go of his worries and met with the people of Legendary Pictures the next day.
Sure enough, they just got a lot of money from Warner, and their offer for "Search" directly exceeded that of Harvey's bastard.
And compared with buying the North American screening rights of "Search", they hoped to buy the remake rights of the film, so they tried to invite Zhang Mu to direct.
Tom, the content director of Legendary Pictures, believes that if this film is set in the United States, it may have the potential to hit the Oscars.
Zhang Mu was noncommittal about this.
However, for "Search", the two still reached a preliminary purchase intention, and officially signed the contract after the film won the award.
After meeting the people from Legendary Pictures, taking advantage of the high popularity of "Search", Zhang Mu met with filmmakers from all over the world.
A lot of intentions, big and small, have been reached, and half of the tasks of this trip to Berlin have been completed.
As for the remaining half, it depends on whether the judges give face!
