Chapter 163: The Great Sin Buster Is About to Arrive in Loyal North America (2-in-1)
"The ogre, the skinner, and the goddess who saves the lamb are coming!"
Before the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs" moved, the media of various countries took the lead in building momentum.
For a while, the media of various countries appeared in the news that the crew of "Lamb" was about to come.
Under normal circumstances, such intensive propaganda would have to open the way with money.
After all, even if a movie is quite popular, the distributor does not give money, and the media shouts twice at most.
As for spontaneously helping you build momentum? I want to eat it!
Unless the popularity reaches the level of "The Silence of the Lambs", it will be completely different.
The media simply loved this movie!
Not to mention the highlights of its box office killing, just because of the serial killer it surrendered to, it is enough for the media to attract the attention of readers.
- Up to now, the number of serial killers who either surrendered or "surrendered" after watching movies in various countries has reached double digits!
The movie has already been released, and the box office is almost a little larger, as long as the "luck" is not too bad, at least one murderer will be "fished".
And every extra one is a carnival for the media!
When was the news so easy to find?
Once upon a time, the term "serial killer" was avoided by both the police and the media.
Because the deterrent power of serial killers is too great, it is afraid to scare ordinary people.
Right now?
When we talk about serial killers or serial homicides, there is no problem, not only can we talk about it, but we can also talk about it with great fanfare - one after another serial killers have been caught, and even ordinary people don't think they have any "deterrent" anymore.
Even, the media that really don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement have the urge to create more news on their own-
For example, the police in various countries soon encountered the same problem as in China - the serial killers were very happy when they turned themselves in, but they were not at all happy when they confessed, and they also put on a posture of rats and cats.
And the media are eager to follow with a magnifying glass, often shackling the police.
On the other hand, if the case cannot be closed quickly, the media will be happy; Their ridicule has put the police under more pressure from public opinion.
It wasn't until they heard that the Chinese police ingeniously let the heroine in the movie come out, and the murderers almost couldn't stop confessing, and they also thought about it.
- Therefore, the crew's overseas trip is not only to promote the film, but also to invite the police of various countries.
- Well, the latter can also be seen as part of the propaganda.
Anyway, the media of various countries are ridiculing the incompetence of their own police, while welcoming the arrival of the "Lamb" crew with the warmest attitude.
Dunhuang is of course happy to see this.
Anyway, if the movie is released, the more publicity the better.
In this regard, the media and them are mutually beneficial.
The crew plans to carry out propaganda along the route of the Asian Chinese-speaking cultural circle - Australia - North America - Europe, and the first stop is of course Japan and North Korea in Northeast Asia, which are the closest to each other.
Among them, the focus is naturally on Ouyang Ke and Shen Zhenyi, who play the male and female leads, and Wang Wei has also received a lot of attention.
Wang Wei needless to say. As a director, once you attract fans through your work, the quality and loyalty will be very high.
People's enthusiasm for stars is like a flame, which comes and goes as fast as it comes. But for the director, their feelings are long-lasting.
has the foundation of the previous two works, at least in the Chinese-speaking cultural circle, Wang Wei can be regarded as a famous director; And with "The Silence of the Lambs", it will definitely gain a lot of influence outside the Chinese-speaking cultural circle.
Not to mention Shen Zhenyi.
With the global explosion of this movie, fools know that she has become famous all over the world, and she can even be regarded as the most recognizable and popular Chinese actress in the world.
Anyway, when overseas fans saw her, the light in their eyes was brighter than the flash of reporters taking pictures!
Only Ouyang Ke, the actor of "Dark Idol" Hannibal, is popular, but the way of popularity makes him a little crying and laughing-
At the first propaganda scene of the Northern Dynasty, he was the first to take the stage, and after you said "Good morning" to the fans, the deep and seductive eyes, as well as the aura, instantly made the fans dream back to the first side of the "prison".
And then...... It almost caused a "riot", and more than one person immediately took out his mobile phone to call the police, saying that he had found Hannibal, the escaped ogre......
Fortunately, the subsequent trip to the police station went well, and Shen Zhenyi copied the miracle in China-
It's just a glance at each other and a smile, the "mediocre" serial killer - no cannibalism, no skinning, in the "serial killer series", it is indeed mediocre - gushing all the hidden crimes in one go.
The local police certainly looked straight; And Wang Wei, who accompanied him, even if he had seen it more than once, was crying out in his heart.
As soon as the news came out, both the media and the theater side laughed from ear to ear.
There are too many publicity points!
Not to mention how crazy the fans are, the media in other countries are simply looking forward to the arrival of the crew.
Only in North America, there are still a lot of "noises" in the field of public opinion - "This Chinese-language film that smears the West is now going to create a nightmare all over the world......"
It's a pity that in the field of oriental public opinion, these are only regarded as lace news and become a joke among fans.
The crew who switched to the island country was not affected at all, but became completely popular in this country!
At the propaganda site, when the "ogre" appeared, the atmosphere reached its highest point -
Having learned the lesson of the first stop, the "ogre" at this time is dressed as a classic image of the transition in the movie - his hands are tied in the sleeves on his chest, his body is firmly tied to an upright stretcher bed with several belts, and he wears a shield made of steel rods on his face, revealing only his eyes.
The fans of the island country cheered wildly, this is the way they like to open the "ogre"!
And Shen Zhenyi's trip to the police station almost made people crazy - the serial killer who surrendered to the island country, after explaining several places where the body was hidden, talked about having dinner with her, and tried to escape from prison on the same day.
The result, of course, was beaten by reality - he couldn't even open the prison door.
But what followed was the popularity of this movie in the island country, which suddenly jumped up a level.
The theater side is exclaiming, a large number of fans are watching a horror movie two or three times, can you believe it?
And the box office forecasting agency also had to raise the box office expectations for the film again.
- You know, because of the influence of the "murderer surrendered" incident, and it is still a continuous impact, their global box office expectation for this film is more than 2 billion people.
It's exaggerated enough, but now, they have quietly raised their global box office expectations to more than 2.5 billion yuan.
In other words, the box office forecasting agency believes that the overseas promotion of the "Lamb" crew has increased the expected value by at least 500 million yuan.
The distributors of the films released by China Entertainment at the same time all called it fortunate - fortunately they avoided overseas distribution at the same time as this perverted movie.
The film's daily box office performance in overseas markets is scary enough, and what is even more frightening is that this high-income state may be maintained for a long time.
MMP, if you can't avoid it in China, you should avoid it overseas.
Some people noticed that in the North American public opinion field at this time, the "noise" still existed, but it was lowered a lot at once - "This Chinese movie may be a flattering movie, but we don't think it has further value......"
- It turns out that for the capitalist world, there is nothing more convincing than a horrific box office figures.
is equivalent to a global box office expectation of more than 1250 million US dollars, even Hollywood may not be able to produce one in a year.
Wang Wei led the crew and continued to move to Southeast Asia as planned.
Everywhere I went, it caused traffic congestion, and fans shouted hoarsely, which has become the norm!
It was the first time for the veteran actor Ouyang Ke to enjoy the spotlight treatment overseas, and there was a feeling of excitement at the beginning!
But after just two stops, he wasn't so excited.
Because it quickly became numb.
What's more, being "tied" into the spotlight is really hard to get excited.
In comparison, Shen Zhenyi is much more decent!
The serial killer who surrendered to the police in various countries "collapsed" in her laughter or angry scolding!
The interpreters almost didn't pay homage to her as if she were a god, and although the police in various countries did not have the urge to worship the gods, they also felt that she was covered with "holy light".
Just when the police and media in various countries were stunned but puzzled by the "halo" on Shen Zhenyi's body, an authoritative scholar finally gave the answer-
"The mystery of the charm of 'The Silence of the Lambs' – this is a very successful application of the psychological needs of the audience!"
The scholar is a psychology expert in China, he is very interested in a series of rare phenomena caused by "The Silence of the Lambs", and has contacted almost all the murderers in various countries who surrendered because of this film.
"We should all know that watching horror movies is actually a kind of 'benign masochism', and benign masochism makes people happy."
"Specifically, when watching horror movies, our physiological instinct will tell us that this is a dangerous or painful behavior, but cognitively understand that the real danger does not exist, it is physiology that has been deceived, and this conflict of 'safety-physiological arousal-reaffirmation of our safety-physiological re-arousal' gives us an indescribable pleasure."
"But, this is for ordinary people."
"Serial killers are not ordinary people, especially those who are at large, they usually have high-sensory stimulation-seeking, high-imagination personality traits, even if they watch horror movies, the visual 'danger' is not enough to produce stimulation, they need a greater threat, to seek benign self-abuse."
"Obviously, Hannibal, the actor in the movie, who plays with the police while talking and laughing, is interpreted by their physiological instincts as a threat - physiological arousal!"
"We also all know that serial killers are often losers in social competition, with contradictory personalities of inferiority and arrogance, and a strong desire to conquer – so they 'followed' in Hannibal's footsteps and turned themselves in and went to prison."
"And after being in prison, it is easy to understand that they do not cooperate with the police interrogation - as long as they do not confess, they are safe. And this kind of self-abuse in a desperate situation makes them feel pleasure in it. ”
"As for the heroine in the movie, she can pry open their mouths when she goes out, I want to paraphrase a sentence in the movie to explain - Hannibal once told the heroine: I decided not to visit you, because the world of Youyou is more interesting."
"What do you mean? In his opinion, the heroine wept because of pity for the lamb and started redemption, this kind of compassion can no longer be said to be full of the brilliance of human nature, it can be said that it is full of divinity. ”
"What could be more dangerous and exciting than showing off her cruel achievements in front of a 'god'-like existence, and even pulling her into darkness? - Physiological re-arousal! ”
"It's a bit winding to say, but in the final analysis, the serial killers are so substituting themselves into this movie that they treat reality as a movie to satisfy their subconscious benign masochistic ......"
- This big bull gave a detailed explanation of the mystery of the charm of this movie, and finally added:
"As for why this movie can make the audience have such a strong sense of substitution, I am not a professional filmmaker, so I won't be ugly, but I guess it is an excellent script, excellent actors, excellent directors, etc. - together there is a very strong chemistry to make such a magical movie."
"I'm afraid it's hard to reproduce this effect again......"
As soon as the analysis of authoritative figures came out, those who had never found the answer finally realized that well, including Wang Wei.
- He knew that it was the resonance aura buff that acted on people's subconscious, but how it worked, sorry, I don't know.
The professor's explanation solved many doubts in his heart, such as why the murderers refused to confess when they all turned themselves in? And why did she confess as soon as she saw Shen Zhenyi? ……
Whether others believe it or not, he believed it anyway!
At the same time, the whole person also breathed a sigh of relief.
- To be honest, the commotion this time was so big that Wang Wei also felt quite empty-hearted.
And he also realized that unless all scientific theories can't be explained, people generally don't think in the direction of Shinto.
No, with the blessing of "science", the public happily accepted this explanation.
And then...... They worship this movie even more!
Before, I just vaguely felt that this movie seemed to be a "gram" serial killer or something.
Now, the authority certifies that this movie is really "gramming" criminals; And the more vicious the criminal, the more likely it is to be "grammed".
And the actors and heroines, Ouyang Ke and Shen Zhenyi, are popular all over the world, and they are also soaring into the sky like rockets - these two people, one attracts the murderer to surrender, and the other attracts the murderer to confess, they are simply a perfect match for the criminal nemesis Youmu!
At this time, any slander against them (her) is probably not accepted.
The most obvious is the North American public opinion field.
Even the far-right media outlets have changed the tone of their talk about this film to "It's so cruel that it digs out people's inner fears and puts them in front of our eyes, but it also provides us with a safe passage in the dark." It is because we look at fear that we have the courage to ......"
The Internet in North America is even smoother - "The great sin busters is about to arrive in their loyal North America!" ”
