Chapter 107 "Fatal" Premiere
Chapter 107 "Fatal" Premiere
It has to be said that the audience who have watched a lot of film and television dramas still have a strong ability to imagine.
Even with just two incomplete trailers, they were able to figure out the rest of the plot in their minds.
Although these plots are just groundless speculations, this is enough to show that "Fatal Call" has indeed created a certain amount of hype on the Internet, and the publicity and promotion department of Galaxy Interactive Entertainment has not been idle.
As time gets closer to the end of January 2006, the festive atmosphere in the air begins to grow stronger, and discussions on "The Fatal Call" on the Internet become more heated.
After all, it is known as the first science fiction action film in mainland China, and Wang Hao released the third comedy trailer, which made the audience remember the release time of this movie.
January 2006, 1, the day before New Year’s Eve.
This time is two days later than the release of "Huo Yuanjia" on January 1, which can be regarded as avoiding the limelight and giving face to the old predecessor.
And the most important thing is that in the entire Lunar New Year period, apart from "Huo Yuanjia", there is no other film that can compete.
Neither Zhang Guoshi nor Feng Dapao, the overlord of the Lunar New Year box office, had any movies released in January, February and March, neither Hong Kong movies nor Hollywood blockbusters.
It can be said that there is a window period of several months, which is enough for them to perform to their heart's content.
At this time, the Galaxy Special Effects finally completed the processing of all special effects shots by early January. Wang Hao naturally started the editing work immediately. After that, he had to add special effects, submit it to the relevant units for review and filing, and add the dragon mark, and at the same time contact the distribution unit.
Fortunately, the discovering unit of their film was Huaying Group, and the screening schedule had already been determined in advance under the supervision of Mr. Han Sanye. Therefore, when the film was successfully submitted for review, Wang Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But he couldn't let go of this anger, because the things he had to do would not decrease with the completion of the film, but would increase instead.
There are various interviews and programs that require him to participate in, various publicity plans that require him to make the final decision, and distributors and theaters that require him to communicate.
Because of this, he even turned down the family's New Year's Eve dinner.
There was nothing they could do, since the night of the New Year’s Eve dinner was the premiere of their movie.
And in addition to internal affairs, he also has to pay attention to external affairs.
Although there are no blockbusters released during this Spring Festival, just one movie, "Huo Yuanjia", is enough to become their strong rival.
You should know that the leading actor of this film is the famous Kung Fu Emperor Li Lianjie, whose fame is comparable to that of Hong Kong's Jackie Chan.
In addition, this is the Kung Fu film he is best at. After the release date of "Huo Yuanjia" was confirmed, the momentum it created was much greater than that of "Fatal Call" by Wang Hao and others.
Xu Zheng? What is the Xu Zheng of 05 compared to Li Lianjie? There is no comparison at all.
So Wang Hao has been paying attention to his opponent's movements, especially when "Huo Yuanjia" was released on the 25th, he even bought a ticket specifically to see with his own eyes whether the movie was different from the one he remembered.
The result was naturally self-evident. There was no change at all, which made Wang Hao feel a little relieved.
In his opinion, there are still many problems in this version of "Huo Yuanjia".
For example, the treatment of Huo Yuanjia's character in the early stage was too exaggerated, the plot rhythm of the whole movie was a bit "top-heavy", the character's transition was too abrupt, and many details were not explained in place...
But as an action film that focuses on "patriotism", these flaws do not outweigh its merits.
Li Lianjie is worthy of being called the Kung Fu Emperor. The action scenes in this movie are remarkable, especially the showdown between Chinese martial arts and Kung Fu from various countries in the second half of the movie, which fully demonstrates the elegance and beauty of martial arts.
Just watching this part is enough to make the ticket worthwhile.
The release of "Huo Yuanjia" can be said to have completely set off a craze for the Spring Festival period.
Taking advantage of this favorable situation, two days later, "Fatal Call" held its own media premiere. Compared with the simple ceremony of "The Shallows" held in the Beijing Film Academy Auditorium, this premiere of "Fatal Call" can be said to be much more formal and grand.
At least when Wan Qian arrived at the largest cinema in Shangjing at that time with the movie tickets she had received in advance, the red carpet in front of her made her feel very nervous.
Fortunately, this girl is not the protagonist today, she is just a simple audience.
But when she saw Yu Feihong walking side by side on the red carpet with Xu Zheng, Shu Chang and invited guest Liu Yifei, with flash lights lighting up all around them, Wan Qian couldn't help but feel a certain yearning in her heart.
Now that you have entered the entertainment industry, it is pure nonsense to say that you are naturally elegant and don't care about fame and fortune.
If you don't care about fame and fortune, why not do something else? Why do you have to be an actor?
The reason why he said this is simply because his strength does not allow him to do so and he just wants to save face.
However, when Wan Qian saw Wang Hao, the director of "Fatal Call", getting out of a car with a charming and radiant girl holding his arm, she could no longer control the strange emotions in her heart.
"Humph!"
The girl snorted coldly, turned around and walked into the cinema.
The normal premiere that followed seemed so ordinary, even boring, in Wan Qian's eyes.
It's nothing more than some actors talking about the difficulties of filming a movie and then talking about the interesting things that happened during the filming process.
During this process, Xu Zheng from the "Fatal Call" crew was already married and could not do CP promotion, so the team set their ambiguous targets on Wang Hao and Fan Binbin.
It is normal to hype up scandals during the promotion of a movie. In addition, Wang Hao and Binbin already have a relationship, so neither of them minded at all. At the premiere, they showed their intimacy, which made people couldn't help but imagine.
Of course, this also made a certain girl even more angry.
But these are all insignificant matters. No matter how wonderful the publicity is, it will eventually end, and everything will ultimately depend on real strength.
As the actors left the stage and the lights in the screening room went out, the time had finally come to accept the results of two or three months of hard work.
The beginning of the movie is still the opening animation of Galaxy Interactive Entertainment.
Then the screen went black and a large scene appeared. Above the blue earth, several satellites were quickly passing through the space. Then the camera seemed to follow some invisible signal and fell rapidly from the atmosphere.
The Earth was approaching rapidly in the camera, and soon the audience saw a more familiar scene.
China——Magic City——Lujiazui——
When the picture stopped again, it was already on a street that looked high-end and classy.
On both sides of the street, various high-rise buildings are lined up, and countless billboards introducing trendy products are like clusters of flowers.
On the street, vehicles are flowing continuously, pedestrians are shoulder to shoulder, and everyone is in a hurry, holding various strange styles of mobile phones, new and old, in their hands, communicating with the people on the other end, as if they are very busy.
Such a prosperous modern metropolis scene, coupled with the peculiar texture brought by the color and lighting, makes everyone who sees this scene subconsciously produce a strange illusion.
It was as if the world in the movie screen was a real world that was more advanced and prosperous than their current world, as if it was in the not-too-distant future.
