"After a while, the school festival.,Let's run a haunted house in our class!"

"This proposal is good, and when the time comes, we will arrange it according to the scene of the curse."

"Ryoko, your face looks so gloomy, you're going to play Gaco!"

……

In the classroom,

The students are discussing,After a while, the school festival,What activities should be held in the class.,

Soon, there were proposals for maid cafes, roadside food stalls, and haunted houses......

And in the end, they settled on the haunted house that was the hottest topic of the moment, and set their sights on the corner of the class, the girl who looked gloomy and had a somewhat gloomy cloak.

"I, I ......"

The girl looked up timidly, but after looking at the indifferent gazes of the others, she nodded, "Okay." ”

She answered.

The crowd continued to turn around and discuss, and no one cared whether she wanted it or not.

The utterance, which seemed to be mocking, was not so much an inquiry as a notice.

……

"Hey, hey, hey, you say, will there be a ghost like Gaco in this house!"

"No way, it's just a movie!"

"No matter what, let's go in, I spent a lot of time trying to find a suitable place to shoot the video!"

In front of an abandoned building, several high school students in uniform were talking happily and planning to go inside.

Some people hold cameras, some people hold rice, and some people hold salt ......

"Are those people in the movie stupid?", "Why do you want to go over when you know that there is danger?", "If you had called the police to deal with it at the first time, the matter would have been solved long ago......

In some horror thrillers, there are often similar evaluations.

But in fact, drama comes from reality.

In the horror film, a group of high school students heard about the relevant urban legends and came to explore the house of Gacoconut.

But in reality, it was a group of people who watched the curse and casually found an abandoned deserted house for live broadcast.

Some people even started to build haunted houses and coconuts......

It's like a popular anime, there will be a lot of people cosizing the characters in it, the manufacturer will produce a lot of peripherals, and there will be people imitating the characters in it dancing, specific movements, lines, and other things.

Following the trend and following the trend is something that people of all times will do.

And this kind of thing is especially obvious in the atmosphere of the school.

With this level of heat, obviously, whether it is the foreshadowing of the thriller and horror atmosphere, or the design of the complete plot, the transition to the mirror during shooting, and the light and dark effects of the picture, it can give people a sense of psychological oppression, which makes the audience on the side of Heguo very satisfied.

Curse 1, gave them amazing feelings.

But the first part is more about the introduction of characters and backgrounds.

And the second part, based on the foundation built in the first part, extends the plot more perfectly, and ends.

Others suggested that the two works could be combined into one and sold on disc — it would be a three-hour horror movie.

This story has a complete plot line, but Gaco's murder has no reason or suffering.

Everyone she kills, relying only on sheer malice.

This kind of malice makes people feel depressed, but it is a taste that is preferred by the Wakuni side.

"Greatest", "Like", "Amazing...... Words such as frequently appear on the Internet with the movie notes of Curse 2 and the group photos on the scene.

However, the direction of domestic comments is a little different.

": Director Lu follows the narrative method of the first part, using the name as a hint to add the victim to the process, but obviously the first part gives people a better feeling, this narrative itself is not the most accepted and understood by the public, and the second part is a little boring when you look at some of the content of the same process."

": Director Lu's films, as always, are of high quality, especially many details, which are amazing, the close-up of the thin layer of sweat on the foreheads of those characters, the first reaction to the fear of the unknown, is great."

": In addition to the special effects of Ga Coconut, the director's skillful shooting techniques, the plot is completely a story of ghosts and ghosts who keep killing people, there is no depth at all, if you insist on saying that there is any depth, it seems that only Ga Coconut's family and life experience can make people think."

": I think the second part is a lot better than the first part, especially some scenes of Hibiki in the hospital, which makes me feel like I am dreaming of returning to the old corpse in the mountain village. (I almost saw her white clothes blue when I saw the coconut lying on top of the patient!) ）”

": The seriousness of the plum civet crew and Director Lu, I can see it from the various details of the movie, but ...... This one is really average, it's not that it's not bad, but compared to previous works, it's a little average. ”

": Originally, I thought I could shoot a few more films, but now I feel that in fact, it is good that the two films will be over, and if I continue to shoot, I feel that it will affect Director Lu's reputation......"

……

The box office of the first release of Curse 2 was more than 40 million, and the box office on the next day was more than 50 million, and it was not until the third day that the threshold of '100 million' was broken.

Such a result, as a movie, is actually not bad.

But based on Lu Zhengyi's past results, this box office data seems a bit decent.

You must know that the box office of the domestic premiere of Curse 1 directly reached more than 90 million, which is equivalent to the data of the first part on one day of release is almost comparable to the data of the second part on three days of release.

In addition to the data, the audience of the comments is not at all as satisfied as the curse 1.

While most of them still give good reviews, there are still a few that give some more pointed reviews.

Of course, because during the warm-up period, there was a battle between Light and Shadow and many media companies, and the winner was decided.

So at present, the public opinion in the general direction of Curse 2 is unanimously praised.

None of the regular media is bad to write about curse 2.

The bad reviews that Lu Zhengyi saw were all valid reviews screened by the Data Statistics Department of Light and Shadow Group based on the information obtained, that is, free film critics.

"They're like those food bloggers who, as soon as they hear about something delicious, they rush over to try it and record it."

Through the mobile phone screen, Zhang Xueming in the video was lying on the bed, leaning sideways on the pillow and explaining, "Of course, with the rise of the self-media industry, the ingredients of these food bloggers are becoming more and more complex, and the words they say and the reactions they show are becoming more and more trusting. ”

"The credibility of their 'delicious' and 'delicious' evaluations has been greatly reduced, and everyone thinks that they are receiving money, especially those bloggers with high traffic, but sometimes the big guys feel right, after all, ...... I want to make money. ”

"But there will still be some people who don't care about money, just pure goodness, so they are willing to take some time to write about their feelings and share them with others.

There was some anticipation in her tone.

"It's a very pertinent comment, and I'm grateful to have some fans like them to point out these problems." Lu Zhengyi sat on a chair in the hotel, looking at the busy night scene outside from the floor-to-ceiling window, "But ...... You're going to the company again today? At this point, don't get too tired. ”

"What's the matter, I'm just a mascot in the company, just listen to what they're doing, don't bother." Zhang Xueming replied softly, her tone becoming regretful.

It was difficult for Lu Zhengyi not to see the change in her tone and attitude before and after, so he asked helplessly: "Were you expecting me to be angry just now?" ”

"Yes, when I think that someone's longing work has finally been released, and there are so many bad reviews in China, I thought you would be very angry and disappointed." Zhang Xueming snickered, "I still think that you will say something like 'they just don't understand my art' or 'they can't understand my work'." ”

It's a pity that people are so calm and look like they don't care.

"No, they're talking about some comments that should be made."

Lu Zhengyi explained, "The curse and the movies I shot in China have indeed changed a lot in style, and the first part can still be accepted by everyone with that freshness, but the second part is still shot in the same way, which will inevitably make people feel boring." ”

"That sentence in particular, without depth, is quite right."

"Of course, the plot of this film is very simple, as long as the audience has watched the first part, the second part can more or less guess the result."

The movies he shot in China are like spells, double pupils, and the first commandment...... It's all very informative films.

In addition to what is shown in the plot, the audience can also have a lot of extra food for thought.

What's more, there is also his true and false marketing strategy, which makes people fall into it and can't extricate themselves.

But the curse is different, just such a storyline is there, look at the beginning, you can guess the end.

This film pays more attention to shooting techniques, special effects, and details...... The plot is secondary, and in the evaluations that Lu Zhengyi just saw, there was no belittling of the attitude of the filming and crew.

Naturally, he didn't react much, which is necessary to try a new style of shooting.

If you keep making movies that are true or false, you can certainly be recognized by domestic audiences.

But since we want to develop outward, we naturally have to learn more things and try more.

In the process of this attempt, Lu Zhengyi is ready to bear some of the challenges and losses that he may face.

What's more, no one can guarantee that he has always adhered to a single style, and the domestic audience can always pay for it.

If you want to become a horror director recognized by domestic audiences, he already is.

But if he wants to become a master of horror recognized by the world, he needs more works.

"Okay, I know you're mentally prepared to take this early on." Zhang Xueming said, her mood became high again, "But the situation in Heguo is not bad, I see that the comments and feedback collected by the company are almost the same as the domestic wind direction." ”

These are only two movies, and they are an extension of the same theme.

"Next, we should continue to chase after the victory, right?"

She asked, "Or, like last time, go back to China and settle down?" ”

"I went back to China to shoot because we ...... Or rather, Light and Shadow and the Plum Tanuki are not ready yet. Lu Zhengyi shook his head, "But now that I have prepared very well, of course, I want to continue to make a film based on the style here." ”

"I've already thought about the theme, but this time it will be a little different from the past, this time there is an original work, and we may have to communicate and negotiate with the creators on the other side of the country at that time."

"There are also actors who will be selected, and I have already decided."

Yes, it's clear that Curse 2 has just been released now, but he already has an idea for the next project.

And strictly speaking, this is what Lu Zhengyi has thought for a long time.

When I met that person, I knew that there would definitely be such a movie.

She is a wonderful heroine.

“…… I can only say that it is worthy of you. Zhang Xueming is used to his high-intensity workload, "When the time comes, if you need to contact any copyright-related matters, just leave it to Guangying." ”

Probably it was the body of a cultivator like him that could support it.

The rest of the Plum Fox crew still had time to rest after filming, but Lu Zhengyi almost didn't.

After the shooting, keep an eye on the post-production.

Oh, now in the later stage, Xu Feng can basically take the lead alone, but Lu Zhengyi is not idle at home, in addition to taking care of and accompanying himself, he will often add work to himself, most of the time is spent reading films or learning languages, and getting in touch with new cultural knowledge.

He devotes himself almost entirely to his career, and he spends time learning everything he needs to shoot.

Even, he pays attention to his daily exercise.

In a sense, the time when Lu Zhengyi accompanied him was probably his only time to rest.

Such a person who knows what he wants to do and can combine knowledge and action has an unimaginable charm.

But the more attractive he is, the more he struggles inwardly for the people around him.

The two had a ride, but they didn't have a match.

One is in the northern capital of the Tang Kingdom, lying on the bed, and the other is in the Kyoto of the Kingdom of Japan, sitting on a chair,

Whether it's work or life, the chat between them is no longer as strict as before, strictly sticking to what time is short and what things should be discussed.

"If you are pregnant, you can't look at your phone for too long, otherwise the radiation will affect the child." Zhang Xueming said softly, "My side...... It's time to hang up the phone and get ready for bed, and you go to bed early. ”

"Okay, get some rest early."

Lu Zhengyi moved his gaze from the night scene below and looked at his wife in the phone, "I'll go back in two days, and I'll cook for you then." ”

With a 'beep', the video was hung up.

Looking at the screen that switched back to the chat box, Zhang Xueming picked up the phone and put it in the distance to charge.

When she lay back on the bed, feeling the empty pillow beside her and listening to the room where there was no sound, her mood was inexplicably low, and at the same time, she had the urge to pick up her phone again and make a video call again.

But soon, she restrained.

He's working.

"Don't be too emotional, Zhang Xueming."

Sitting on the bed, she whispered to herself, reaching out and stroking her stomach, "You have to carry the affairs of the family, this is what you said." ”

During the day, she was accompanied by four old people, and she didn't feel anything.

But once it was night, she would miss him inexplicably.

Although this feeling of longing was still felt in the past, it was not as strong as it is now.

I guess I used to have a job that I could be distracted from, but now I can't.

But no matter how you think about it, you have to be able to do what you say, and you can't cause trouble or pressure on him.
