Director Kaige didn't say anything in the end, he was originally a relatively indecisive character.

The reason why Wu Yuan persuaded him to shoot "Wuji" later, there was really no way.

"Painted Skin" may not be released in time for 2005, and even if it does, it is estimated that it will be November or December.

He really didn't want to fight at the same time as "Wuji".

Even if you insist on preempting the release of "Wu Ji" in ten days and half a month, when "Wu Ji" is released, it will eat up a large part of the film schedule and market.

Should I say it or not, although "Wuji" was scolded miserably after its release, this movie did take more than 100 million yuan at the box office!

This movie is scolded and scolded, and the gimmick of a top director + fantasy movie is still full.

Among the movies released in December 2005, "Wuji" sold 179 million, "The Great Sage of Love" 50 million, and "Riding Alone for a Thousand Miles" 30 million.

All three are hard to describe.

If "Painted Skin" is squeezed in again, even if the reputation is good, it is estimated that it can only grab a box office of about 100 million, which is really a bit low.

If there is no "Wu Ji", "Painted Skin" may be able to get a box office of more than 200 million in this schedule and crush the other two movies.

The other two movies really can't compete with "Painted Skin" for the market.

The market plate is so big, if you can fool "Wuji" to 2006, then "Painted Skin" is really cool.

It's a pity that this kind of thing is not something that Wu Yuan can say in a few words, and in the end, Director Kaige is just a little moved.

After that, Wu Yuan chatted with these big directors, arranged a hearty lunch for them, and began to prepare for the premiere in the afternoon.

It can only be described in one word.

Busy!

Very busy!

At the time of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Disney handled all the premiere arrangements, and Wu Yuan only needed to sit in the interview seat.

And this time to hold the premiere of "Your Name" in China, although Wu Yuan did not arrange an interview with reporters, just receiving guests made his busy feet not touch the ground.

The leading actors of the crew stood in the main hall of the National Center for the Performing Arts, listening to the noisy shouts and photos of reporters on the red carpet outside, and Wu Yuan had to receive a group of guests every five minutes.

"Professors, hard work."

"Sister Ziyi, please inside."

"Han Dong, please come in."

Batch after batch of guests, all of whom are well-known filmmakers in China, were personally introduced by Wu Yuan into the screening hall to rest.

Hu Ge, Liu Yifei and the others who followed him didn't dare to take a breath.

Everyone here, for them as little actors, is also a rare big star.

No, another big star has arrived.

Gong Li wore a black Armani haute couture dress, like a noble black swan, and walked from the red carpet to the National Center for the Performing Arts.

This year, she is the only one in China who can ask the top European luxury brands to prepare custom dresses for her.

The international chapter is not qualified, and you have to go to the top luxury brand to borrow.

Seeing Emperor Gong arrive, Wu Yuan immediately stepped forward and greeted politely: "Sister Gong Li, welcome to my new movie premiere." ”

Emperor Gong is worthy of Emperor Gong, revealing an atmospheric and elegant temperament all over his body, he smiled at Wu Yuan slightly, and said lightly: "How can you not come when you receive Director Wu's invitation?" ”

This is true.

Now Wu Yuan can hold the premiere and invite Gong Li and Zhang Yimou at the same time.

The two of them have not reconciled yet, they are in a period of stiffness, and they do not appear on the same occasion with each other.

But Wu Yuan invited, and they all came.

"You're welcome." Wu Yuan smiled and nodded, being able to be said by Emperor Gong, he was still a little vain in his heart.

And Liu Yifei, who was standing behind her, stared at Gong Li with shining eyes, this is her idol in her acting career!

Her face was flushed, and she was so excited that her voice trembled a little and said: "Hello Teacher Gong Li, I am actor Liu Yifei, I like your movie works very much!" ”

She was still embarrassed to say the word "idol".

"Huh?" Gong Huang turned his head to look at Liu Yifei, the smile on his face grew, and he looked back and forth at Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei, "You are the heroine of this movie, right?" ”

After seeing Liu Yifei nodding, she said again: "It is a very lucky thing for a newcomer to be able to perform Director Wu's work, I hope you can grasp this luck." ”

Maybe he thought of something, Gong Huang's smile was a little frustrated, "Director Wu, then I'll go in first." ”

"Please."

Next, one after another invited guests arrived, each of which caused exclamations from reporters on both sides of the red carpet outside, followed by a burst of wild shooting.

Although in terms of momentum, the premiere of "Your Name" is not as good as "Hero", but in terms of starlight, the premiere of "Your Name" far exceeds "Hero".

In particular, when the last guest of honor for the finale arrived, the reporters outside were stunned.

"Why is Cheng Long here too?"

"Didn't I hear that Director Wu knew Cheng Long?"

"They've been in contact with Hollywood?"

"Leave it alone, take pictures!"

Hundreds of reporters gathered outside pointed their cameras at Cheng Long.

The current Cheng Long's influence in the Chinese entertainment industry is even more exaggerated than 20 years later.

He is popular in Hollywood, and now he is at the peak of his popularity!

Although in terms of status, he is definitely not as good as Wu Yuan in Haolaiwu, but who calls people public stars, Wu Yuan is the director.

In the eyes of many on-site reporters, Cheng Long was able to come to participate in Wu Yuan's movie premiere, which was definitely a face.

But in the inner hall, it's a different story.

As soon as Cheng Long entered the inner hall, he walked quickly to Wu Yuan with a smile and shook his hand hard.

"Director Wu, why did everyone else invite me for the premiere of the new movie, but they didn't invite me." Cheng Long pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "If Ziyi hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known about this!" ”

Yes, he took the initiative to attend the premiere of "Your Name".

"I'm not afraid of delaying your work." Wu Yuan smiled and hugged him: "You have so many work arrangements at home and abroad. ”

"Huh." Cheng Long shook his head again and again: "No matter how busy you are, you have to attend the premiere of your new movie." ”

Cheng Long was filming "New Police Story" on Hong Kong Island, and as soon as he heard that Wu Yuan had a new movie to be released, he asked the crew for a leave of absence and flew directly to the capital.

"Inside, please." Wu Yuan also had a bright smile on his face.

Anyway, Cheng Long came to cheer him on, which is still a very face-saving thing at the moment.

Cheng Long was already the last guest to arrive, and the reporters Wu Yuan didn't care, so naturally there were staff members who arranged for them to watch the movie.

Wu Yuan took Cheng Long and the actors of the crew to the screening hall together.

When the guests who were already in the screening hall saw Wu Yuan and Cheng Long walking in side by side, in addition to the four directors, Gonghuang and International Zhang, the others also exclaimed like the reporters outside.

When did Wu Yuan meet Cheng Long?

Why did Cheng Long come to cheer for Wu Yuan?

Two questions suddenly surfaced in the minds of many people.

And when Han Dong saw the two of them walking in while chatting, his heart immediately opened up.

These two actors and directors who are well-known in Hollywood, if they work together on a mainland blockbuster, wouldn't it be refreshing?

The combined influence of these two is even greater than Zhang Yimou's "Hero"!

But how do you match two people to work together?

Han Dong was worried again.

"Come on, come on, sit down." Wu Yuan didn't know Han Dong's flowery intestines, so he happily took Cheng Long to sit next to the four directors, that is, in the second row.

On the left are the four major directors, and on the right are Gong Li and International Zhang, and there is no one else who is treated this way.

After Cheng Long sat down and communicated with Chen Kaige, Wu Yuan took the leading actors of the crew to the bottom of the screen.

A staff member handed over the microphone.

It stands to reason that at this time, the creators talk about how hard and difficult the filming of this movie is, how good the movie is, and how special and novel the experience it will bring to everyone.

But Wu Yuan didn't play according to the routine.

He doesn't like to make long speeches at the premiere, and inviting guests to the premiere is just inviting everyone to watch a movie together.

Wu Yuan picked up the microphone and said very neatly: "Thank you for coming to cheer me on and attending the premiere of "My Name". ”

"This is the second commercial film I have made in China after three years after "The Night the Comet Commet"."

"I hope you'll enjoy the movie."

After speaking, he took the leading actors back to the first row to sit down.

They weren't even given a chance to speak.

Fortunately, whether it is Hu Ge or Liu Yifei, seeing so many top actors and directors at the premiere in a few days, they have already been nervous to death, not to mention several other supporting actors, and their hands and feet are trembling with nervousness.

They really don't have the courage to talk in front of this group of big names.

Following Wu Yuan and quickly sitting back in the first row, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"And that's the end of the speech?" Jiang Wen, who was sitting in the second row, said stunned, "It's so fucking simple." ”

No one answered him, and the lights in the theater dimmed.

The logos of Light and Shadow Times and China Film Group were lit up successively, and then the familiar dragon logo appeared on the screen.

As the dragon mark also darkened, all the whispering voices were quieted, and the movie officially began to be screened.

As soon as it opens, it is a beautiful scenery of a meteor shower streaking across the night sky.

Seven or eight brilliant meteors streaked across the sky, fell into the clouds, and fell through the clouds to the ground.

The camera follows the meteorite through the clouds one by one and the other as it falls.

It's made entirely with special effects, but it's incredibly realistic.

A shot of only ten seconds is enough to attract the attention of all audiences.

Domestic movies have really never had such special effects scenes.

"Tsk, just a few seconds, it will cost millions, right?" Director Feng whispered with emotion.

On the screen, the movie continues.

As the meteorite was about to fall to the ground, the picture suddenly came to an abrupt halt and plunged into total darkness.

The voice of the heroine Sanye sounded from the loudspeakers on both sides.

"When I woke up in the morning, I didn't know why I was crying."

"It happens every now and then."

The picture lit up again, but it was Lin Wenjie, the actor played by Hu Ge, sitting on the bed and looking at a tear in the palm of his hand.

"I've had dreams, but I can't remember them."

"Just."

A light lit up, splitting the picture into two halves, different bedrooms on both sides, Lin Wenjie and Sanye were sitting on the bed, looking at the tears in their hands in a daze.

"I just feel like I've forgotten something important."

The camera quickly zoomed in, the distant sun loomed in the clouds, and the movie title was lit up on the screen in thin gold font.

"Your Name"

Directed by Wu Yuan.

The theme song of the movie, sung by Mayday, sounds.

The fierce pop-rock accompaniment, coupled with Ashin's youthful voice, the picture on the screen is constantly jumping.

Lin Wenjie held a bun in his mouth, wore a white shirt and a high school uniform with a suit that was only available in Beijing, and trotted to the bus stop.

Luo Sanye, who was wearing a classic big-pocket sports school uniform, held a red hairband, tied his hair, and hurriedly said to his grandmother, "I don't eat breakfast", and under the gaze of his sister "It's like this again", he trotted out of the house.

On one side is a modern city full of high-rise buildings, and on the other side is a rural town with green mountains and green waters.

Two worlds, the lives of two high school students with different circumstances, are constantly interspersed on the screen.

There is no need for any background introduction, through such a short picture, all the audience knows the identity background of the two male and female leads.

As the theme song gradually comes to an end, there is another freeze-frame scene of the two sides of the screen being divided, with the hero and heroine on a tall building and the other looking up at the sky on the mountainside.

This is the official beginning of the feature film.

"Wen Jie, don't you remember?"

"My name is, Shamrock."

Suddenly, Luo Sanye woke up from the bed and looked around the room in a little confusion.

Although the walls are peeling off and the wooden windows are a little rudimentary, there is no doubt that this is a room full of femininity.

Luo Sanye's face still had a little bit of panic on his face that seemed to be after waking up from a nightmare, and he lowered his head to look at his body.

"Sister, what are you doing?" My sister, who was leaning against the door at some point, asked with a puzzled expression.

"I thought, this thing is really real." After Luo Sanye subconsciously replied, he reacted and stretched out his finger to point at himself: "Huh, me?" Sister? ”

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Luo Siye shouted impatiently: "It's time to eat, hurry up!" ”

"I want to call you every day, is there a sister who does this?"

There was a "bang", and the door was slammed shut.

There was laughter in the screening room.

Chen Kaige shook his head and smiled: "The hero and heroine swap bodies, this setting is quite interesting." ”

Liu Yifei, who was sitting in the first row, listened to the laughter in his ears, and his entire earlobes were rosy.

When filming this scene at that time, she was almost ashamed, it was really shameful to do this kind of thing in front of the camera teacher and Wu Yuan.

Fortunately, it seems that the audience's response to this scene is not bad.

"W-"

The scene in the movie turned again, Luo Siye was frying eggs in the kitchen.

Putting the fried eggs on the table, she grinned and said to her sister and grandmother sitting on both sides, "You can eat!" ”

She enthusiastically packed the rice and served it to her grandmother and sister.

"Well, it's finally normal today." Grandma took the rice and smiled with relief.

"Yesterday was really bad." My sister also agreed.

"Huh?" Luo Sanye, who was serving himself rice, was stunned, "What do you mean by this?" ”

It's not just that she's stunned.

All the guests who were watching the movie were also stunned.

What does this mean?

What happened yesterday?

Look at the beginning, the male protagonist should have just swapped bodies with the heroine, right?

Also, why is it that after exchanging bodies for the first time, the male protagonist can show the temperament of a "chef" so skillfully, and he can still communicate with the heroine's family so well?

Did we miss a plot?

Only Wu Yuan, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a dark smile.

I'm going to write three chapters today, and I'll finish rewriting this movie in one go, but the third chapter should be released after the early hours of the morning, so you can watch it in one breath tomorrow.
