Chapter 152 "Unparalleled" trailer, hot coming
Regarding the news that Wang Hao's "Wushuang" and Cheng Long's "Baby Project" would compete against each other during the National Day holiday, Wang Zhongjun also called him specifically.
After all, both films have investments from Huayi, and for the sake of his own interests, Wang Zhongjun certainly does not want the two sides to fight each other.
However, he called Wang Hao to advise him to take a step back, and his reason was very sufficient. It was nothing more than that the production time of "Wushuang" was too tight and there was not enough time for promotion.
But Wang Hao knew in his heart that Wang Zhongjun was not optimistic about the competition between "Wushuang" and "Baby Project".
This idea is certainly understandable, after all, the other party is Cheng Long.
However, Wang Hao had a sense of pride in his heart, so he firmly rejected Wang Zhongjun's suggestion.
At the same time, in order to better promote "Wushuang", he launched a wave of "black and red" plans, taking advantage of the momentum of some people who wanted to discredit him, and created momentum with little money.
The result of this plan was just as he expected. Starting from mid-August, "Wushuang" also frequently appeared in major news media and on the Internet along with the negative public opinion about Wang Hao, and became known to the general public.
Although in most of the news, Wang Hao and his new movie "Wushuang" were disparaging.
However, as the first trailer of "Wushuang" began to be released on major platforms and the Internet in early September, this trend of criticism and slander suddenly came to a halt.
It’s nothing, it’s just because the content of the trailer is indeed attractive enough.
"In this world, there is only one protagonist among a million people!"
This is what Liam Neeson said to Aaron Kwok in the tavern at the beginning of the trailer.
That kind of bewitching tone and that kind of sincere expression instantly made everyone who watched the trailer feel nervous.
With the narration of "Those who play the protagonists are those who can reach the extreme", and the editing clips of Aaron Kwok's down and out, the audience instantly realized that Liam Neeson was trying to recruit Aaron Kwok.
Sure enough, the next scene is Liam Neeson saying to Aaron Kwok: "But first you have to find the right stage."
You need a stage!
Several large characters appeared on the screen, accompanied by fast-cut scenes showing the superb painting skills of Li Wen, played by Aaron Kwok.
When the scene ended, Aaron Kwok sat in the car and asked Liam Neeson: "Which master's painting do you want to copy?"
Liam Neeson held up a hundred-dollar bill to cover half of his face.
"I want you to make a copy of this dollar bill."
Aaron Kwok smiled and asked, "Do you have a good master?"
The next second, in a brisk voice, the subtitle "You need a team" flashed by, and then the trailer began to quickly introduce the members of the counterfeit money making gang.
At this point the audience also understood that the movie "Wushuang" is a crime film about the making of counterfeit money.
How could a crime-themed movie like this not have some exciting scenes?
Sure enough, after the character introduction, the narration began.
“It took two months to print all the details very finely, except for the color-changing ink.”
"Let's party!" Liam Neeson shouted with a smile.
Then, with the subtitles “You need to be bolder,” scenes of gunfights, robberies, explosions, and other adrenaline-pumping scenes flash by quickly.
Finally, the printed counterfeit banknotes appeared in front of everyone, followed by a frenzy of revelry and drinking.
After the cruise ship, the beauties and the banknotes disappeared, the two gold-plated characters "Wushuang" appeared in the center of the display.
"On September 9, a huge money-making scam is coming!" As the trailer for "Wushuang" came out, a lot of criticism and slander about Wang Hao on the Internet disappeared instantly.
Overnight, his reputation could not be said to have been reversed, but it was finally stabilized.
“I don’t know why, but after watching this trailer, I felt my blood boiling.”
"Yeah, this movie is exciting to watch."
"They say trailers are deceiving. Could the protagonist be a villain? I guess Aaron Kwok is an undercover agent, and in the end, the villain was caught."
"Everyone says that this movie directed by Wang Hao is shoddy, but judging from the trailer, it doesn't seem to be the case. I'd better go watch "Wushuang" during this National Day..."
With all these comments appearing in major film and television forums, the movie "Wushuang" naturally became the hottest topic at the moment.
The joint performance of the Four Heavenly Kings and old-school Hollywood stars is no longer an exaggerated form of publicity, but has become a synonym for high-end.
Just when the outside world was in turmoil because of a trailer, Wang Hao and others worked overtime and finally completed the production of the entire film in mid-August.
When the final film was completed, Wang Hao immediately invited senior executives from Huaying, Huayi, Emperor Entertainment Group and Columbia Pictures, as well as representatives from major cinema chains, to hold a small film screening to allow these partners to experience the quality of the film in advance.
The film screening was held in the small screening room of Huaying Group. A group of executives and company leaders stared at the small screen intently, and occasionally communicated with the people around them.
Wang Hao sat in a chair in the second row, but his mind was not on the movie.
He had seen this thing countless times when he was editing, and he had already memorized it by heart, so in comparison, he was more interested in the reactions of the audience around him.
As the 120 minutes ended, the lights came on and applause broke out.
"Clap clap clap!"
“Great shot!”
The person who said this was Han Sanye from Huaying, and soon others also expressed their praise for the film.
"Wang, you are simply a genius!"
Columbia's Asia general manager Wade also praised Wang Hao highly.
"I believe this film will also be successful in the United States. Really, you have to go there and let the audience see how good the director is who can make such a work."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Vader."
Wang Hao smiled and said to the head of Columbia Pictures in China:
“As a director, I also have to be responsible for the investors, and I believe Columbia’s investment this time is wise enough.
As for going to the United States, even if you didn't mention it, I was just thinking of mentioning it to you, and I might have to trouble you later."
"Easy to say! Easy to say!"
Wade smiled and nodded, and the others gathered around.
For a moment, the entire viewing room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
