198 Everyone, I seem to have read this movie somewhere (Ladies and gentlemen, the Dragon Boat Festival is healthy!) )
Kazuki Sakuraba's preparation was completely useless, at least not in the cinema. Because the cinema was full of people, it was impossible to give them the possibility of use.
Sakurabanyo is very curious, isn't this movie obviously unfriendly to the island country? Why aren't fans angry? Why are they coming to see it?
So, he asked the young man sitting next to him.
"Hey, there's a question I'd like to ask you."
"Hey, excuse me."
"Why did you come to see this movie?" Sakurasaka asked.
"Oh, don't you know? Tonight's fans are all fans of Director Hefang, but unfortunately there are too few theaters for the mid-o'clock screening, and I came from Iwamoto Town, and I was lucky to get a ticket. The young man said excitedly.
"Huh?" Sakurasaka only then understood why there were so many people, "Are there many fans in the island country?" ”
"Of course, he is the light of Asia, his films are not made by other Asian directors, and he is the youngest award-winning director in Cannes and Venice, and his films are full of the plight and preferences of our young people. For example, his "Single Zoo" ......"
As soon as this young guy mentioned where he was, he began to talk endlessly, which made Sakurasaka a little shocked.
"No, it's not, aren't you disgusted that there may be bad scenes in his movies for the island nation?"
"Disgusted? Why be disgusted? He is awakening the memory of the people of the island country, who dropped the atomic bomb on us in reality? Who is taking over our land and colonizing us? Who is blocking our economy? Doesn't Where's movie use such a bridge to make us remember this incident? ”
The young man asked rhetorically.
"......" Sakurasaka Yang suddenly felt numb when he heard it, he didn't expect that young people would see him like this, and he would understand his movies like this, which really subverted his three views.
When he wanted to ask something, the movie began, and the young man immediately put on his glasses, and he didn't want to ask, so he had to put on his glasses and watch it seriously.
After the movie began, with the presentation of 3D, Sakurasaka rarely saw the excitement and shouts of young people in the island country, which he couldn't see in normal times, the young people of the island country were always sullen, but at this time they were very excited and youthful.
Monsters, mechs, combat, humor...... I don't know if Sakurasaka Yoko also watched it with relish, and I couldn't stop it.
And he also watched the plot that was unfriendly to the island country, combined with what the young man said before, he felt that it made sense, it was necessary to let the people of the island country remember certain things, which was not a bad thing.
After 135 minutes, Sakurasaka let out a long sigh of relief, he felt that he was twenty years younger, mechas, monsters, and battles were the elements he also liked when he was young, and now they were all presented in "Pacific Rim", and the connection was so smooth.
The point is that there is no one who is the only hero here, all the people who pay for fighting monsters are heroes, and the differences are put aside here, and everyone begins to fight side by side.
"Wow, this movie is amazing, Sakurasaka-kun, I don't think you should hesitate, such a director will not bury your story." Kazuki Sakuraba said.
"Really? I'm going to have to think about it. Sakurasaka nodded.
"So, where do we go next?" Kazuki Sakuraba asked.
"I'll take you home."
"No, I've heard there's a secluded place east of Sensoji Temple, maybe we can spend the night in the car."
"......" Sakurasaka thought for a moment, "Okay." ”
……
The next day, Sakurasaka received a call from Zhang Qian early in the morning, he had a plan in his heart, but he had not yet made up his mind, although "Pacific Rim" gave him a certain amount of confidence, but after all, there is still a gap compared with Hollywood studios.
Maybe talk to Warners two more times, and if they don't agree to the price increase, then sell it somewhere. If he can make his "Killing Reincarnation" no worse than "Pacific Rim", then it will satisfy him.
"Hi, Mr. Zhang Qian, hello."
"Hello, Mr. Sakurasaka. That's right, because I have too many things going on in China, so I bought a ticket back to China this evening. So, I want to make sure with you one last time, but you still haven't thought about it, okay? Maybe when I go back, our company's plans will change and we will use a different story. I just bought another story here called "Gunmon", by Mr. Yukido Kishiro. ”
Sakurasaka Yang was stunned for a moment, is this the other party found a solution? This made him a little flustered when he thought he could sit on the ground and start the price.
However, it really can't be sold to Warner, so it's a little lower...... No, the difference is hundreds of thousands of dollars, dollars, that can ensure that he has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.
"Is this so urgent? Can't make me think again. Sakurasaka asked.
"No, the plans have changed because we have an alternate story and don't want to wait any longer. But out of politeness, we still ask you, if you want to sell, then we will still keep our promise today, if you don't sell, then we will have the opportunity to cooperate again next time. Zhang Qian said on the phone.
"Shhh...... Can you make me think about it? Sakurasaka said.
"Of course, I'm on the plane at six o'clock in the evening, you can think about it before that, I can't help it when I get on the plane." Zhang Qian said.
"Okay, then I'll give you an answer before three o'clock in the afternoon, do you think it's possible?" Sakurasaka had to delay until three o'clock in the afternoon.
"Of course, then I'll wait for your news." Zhang Qian replied that he did not immediately increase the price, unless Sakurasaka Yang finally replied that he did not agree, Zhang Qian would give the final offer at the last moment.
While Sakurasaka was struggling and considering, the crew of "Pacific Rim" was in full swing in the capital, saying that it was propaganda and letting several Hollywood actors feel the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year in several business districts in the capital.
"This is the Chinese New Year? Wow, it's more fun than Christmas. ”
"It's more interesting to go back to Hong Kong or Singapore, where they have better reservations for the traditional Chinese New Year." Wu Jing explained, after all, he had been there for a while.
"Why do they keep it better? Isn't this of Chinese origin? ”
"Uh......" Wu Jing was suddenly dumbfounded, yes, how to answer this question?
……
Everywhere they went, they were excited, because this is China's first sci-fi blockbuster, so that all Chinese know that we can make this kind of big movie ourselves, and we don't have to envy Hollywood.
This has invisibly established cultural self-confidence, rather than another time and space, Hollywood's sci-fi blockbusters have been pressed until the appearance of "The Wandering Earth" in 2019 to find movie self-confidence.
It is also after the appearance of "The Wandering Earth" that Chinese people are slowly less interested in Hollywood blockbusters, less excited, and slowly feel tired of watching, and feel that it is good to watch good Chinese movies.
This kind of feeling that people can't say is the result of the cultural self-confidence slowly rising, you can do mine, we can do it, so I don't have to worship you again and again.
When people start to use domestic household appliances and do not feel that the grade is worse than that of foreign countries, when they feel that driving domestic cars is no worse than joint ventures or imported cars, from when they do not feel worse than foreign ones when they use domestic mobile phones, and then when people feel that watching Chinese blockbusters is not worse than foreign countries, our entire national self-confidence will rise.
"It's really enjoyable to watch, I really didn't expect that our domestic sci-fi blockbuster can be made like this, it's really amazing."
"I only care about one thing now, when will the domestic weapons in the movie be realized. It feels like He Fang's description of these weapons is not groundless, as if there is a basis. ”
"When you say that, I also feel this way, especially the appearance of the 20 fighters inside, did he make its first flight when he was filming? It shouldn't have made its first flight, right? ”
"There was no first flight, the first flight was made after the movie was made, that's for sure. In other words, he knew early on that there was such a fighter. ”
"If that's the case, wouldn't the aircraft carriers and warships in there ...... Hey, I don't dare to think about it, will we really have these in 2019? ”
"I've watched it twice, and I think I can watch it ten times, and it's really not the kind of movie that gets tired of watching it once and a second time. He Fang's movie story is really complete, if you look at his movies carefully, you will find a lot of interesting details, anyway, I found a lot. Every time you look at it, you find something. ”
"Upstairs, what did you find?"
"Hey, don't tell you, find out for yourself. Because I found these things, I was afraid that saying them would cause disagreement, which would affect the box office of the movie. We've managed to make a good movie, and I don't want it to happen. ”
"Huh? So awesome? Then I'm going to watch it again. ”
"I can't buy a ticket, big guy, I can't buy a ticket anymore......"
……
And the score of "Pacific Rim" on Douban has also come out, with a score of 7.7, I don't know if this movie has the effect of automatically subtracting one point from domestic movies.
"Breathtaking, I can only describe it in these four words. The special effects of "Pacific Rim" are roughly the assembly of "Transformers" + "Alice in Wonderland", I can't imagine that this is a movie made by our Chinese, my confidence that was shattered and desperate by "Avatar" was re-erected, where did he do what he promised, it's really awesome, where are the fans of my life......"
"After watching the mecha vs. monster movie "Pacific Rim" with my mouth open, the CG special effects and emotional impact are like the sum of the three Transformers and multiplied by 10, and if you sell copies, will you give up filming 4. So a high-concept science fiction story that is difficult to achieve can only be a qualified commercial movie with a vulgar and meaningless plot, and the final battle makes me suffocating, and I want to sit on the ground with a mecha in my left hand and a monster in my right hand to play all day......"
"Landlord, give me that I can play for a whole year."
"You didn't play mecha and monsters all year long, did you? It's a ......."
"Huh?"
"Haha......"
"Bad reviews, I watched it three times, and finally found out where the gap between "Pacific Rim" and Hollywood blockbusters is, this is an absolute bad review. All Hollywood blockbusters will kiss the hero and heroine at the end, but "Pacific Rim" does not, so the bad reviews, the absolute bad reviews......"
"Landlord, take your sister's kiss, this is also the reason for the bad review...... But depending on the situation where you hit five stars, I won't beat you, or I'll find a way to go along the network cable, and I'll beat you to death. ”
"After watching Pacific Rim, I always felt like I had read this movie somewhere, yes, I had read it. Look, unity and cooperation, haven't you read it? I think I went to school when I was in elementary school. There are always more ways than difficulties.,Finally, I researched the final-level armor to defeat the monster.,Have you read it? Establishing a strong comradeship with the enemy on the battlefield and eventually developing into a close comradeship, does it feel like reading it anywhere? Also, I'll have to go see it again. ”
"I lost it, I found the movie to be great, but I was even better in the comment area, full of talent. I actually read out a science movie. ”
……
When the time came, it was evening, and the news was launched.
Recently, a film premiere event was held in Beijing, which was the first 3D large-scale giant sci-fi film produced by China's young director He Fang, and its technical level reached the international top. The premiere of this film attracted enthusiastic attention from the people of Beijing, among whom our leader ......"
"Let's see the detailed report below......"
"Ah, Lao He, Lao He, our son is really on the news......" Zeng Jinghua jumped up excitedly at home, and He Ben also smiled and lit a cigarette.
"Don't be rash, like anything, don't embarrass our son, come, sit down and read it well."
"Ah, it's really on TV......"
