Chapter 158 The First Generation of Water Netizens
Chapter 158 The First Generation of Water Netizens
The audience's wait was well rewarded.
When the big screen went out and then lit up again, the noisy sound instantly spread throughout the hall through the speakers.
On the chaotic streets, all kinds of signs written in Thai can be seen everywhere, and passers-by are all dressed in exotic clothes.
Obviously, this must be in Thailand.
At the end of the street, on a huge red archway, the large golden characters "May your majesty live forever" stand out so dazzlingly.
However, the camera only glanced at it, and soon, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared in the camera on the street.
The two men seemed to have just landed in Bangkok, both still dragging suitcases, and the shorter one seemed to be looking for someone to exchange currency.
However, when he took the dollars handed over by the other party, the tall and thin figure in a white T-shirt standing next to him suddenly reached out and grabbed the hand that held the money.
The short figure turned his head subconsciously, revealing half of his honest face. It was actually Wang Baoqiang.
"What are you doing?"
Wang Baoqiang raised his head and asked in confusion.
The tall figure lowered his head slightly, and the sunlight was above his head, so that his face in the camera was dark and a little unclear.
But his voice was very childish and a little stuttering.
"You can't - you can accept it, it's - it's counterfeit money!"
The screen went completely black, the lights in the screening room came on, and Wang Hao, holding a microphone in his hand, led a group of leading actors back onto the stage.
The audience seemed to come back to their senses from the movie plot and shouted at the people on the stage.
"Aaron Kwok, I love you!"
"Feihong, look over here!"
"Tingfeng! Tingfeng! You are the most handsome!"
The whole scene was extremely lively, and the loudest shout was for Wang Hao.
"Director Wang, please hurry up and shoot the next one! Our whole family supports you!"
The audience immediately burst into laughter, and there was warm applause that lasted for a long time.
Everyone was very happy, including the actors on the stage and the investors in the audience.
Because they know, just by looking at the state of the audience, the movie "Wushuang" will definitely be a hit, and a huge hit.
This judgment was soon confirmed.
On the night of the premiere, all the movie-related forums and websites on the Internet were filled with posts praising "Wushuang".
This was because the audience who had watched the premiere were so excited that they spontaneously started to publicize and promote the film.
"Everyone, hurry up and watch it! I just finished watching "Wushuang", it's absolutely wonderful, and I'm already planning on watching it a second time!"
"I knelt down after watching "Wushuang". Director Wang Hao has a great imagination!"
"Has anyone understood "Wushuang"? Please help me analyze it. I feel like my brain is not enough."
“‘Wushuang’ is really good. It’s obviously directed by a mainland director, but it made a Hong Kong-style blockbuster!”
"I just finished watching "Wushuang", I can only say that it is indeed 'unparalleled', sweeping this National Day movie and has no rivals!"
"'Wushuang' completely broke my stereotype of Chinese films. It doesn't look like a film made by a mainland director at all. It would definitely achieve good results even if it was put into Hollywood!"
Of course, where there is praise there will be doubts and slander. Under these posts, there are also many questions raised by people who have not seen the movie yet.
"No way! The movie has just been released, and it has received so many positive reviews?"
"How much did the crew of "Wushuang" spend?"
"Can 'Wushuang' be better than 'Baby Project'? I don't believe it."
"I just watched The Banquet a few days ago. I can only say that directors in the mainland simply don't have the ability to make commercial blockbusters, so I only watch movies made by Hong Kong directors."
"You can praise them if you want, but why do you have to talk about Hong Kong style? Are Hong Kong movies superior? There are also good movies in the mainland!" "Are these people trying to trick me into going to the cinema?"
There are some true and some false news on the Internet, and most netizens are just watching for fun.
However, as more and more viewers watched "Wushuang", the evaluation of "Wushuang" on the Internet gradually became consistent.
Even if some companies and individuals see that this situation is not right and start spending money and effort to crack down on this spontaneous propaganda drive of the audience, how can they rely solely on the power of this small group to fight against the broad masses of the people?
This spontaneous publicity from the audience pushed the movie score of "Wushuang" on Douban to 9.2 points.
Douban scored 9.2 points, what does this mean?
You should know that today's Douban is not the Douban that was later occupied by water armies. Its movie rating system is still recognized by the majority of movie fans and audiences, and is very fair.
Therefore, any film that can reach a score of 9 or above on Douban must be a masterpiece that can gain unanimous recognition from audiences at home and abroad and go down in film history.
Like "The Shawshank Redemption", "Farewell My Concubine", "Forrest Gump", "Spirited Away", "Titanic", "Life is Beautiful"...
Can "Wushuang" reach this level?
Many netizens don’t believe it. Although this is only the opening score, the score will drop as more netizens vote for it. But with a basic score of 9.2, how low can it drop?
The lowest score should be above 8.5. Nowadays, there are not many domestic films with a score above 8.5!
You know, "Baby Project", which was just released a few days ago and competed with "Wushuang", has a score of only 7.9 points at the moment. It's completely a level lower.
In addition to the many comments praising "Wushuang" that appeared on Douban and major forums and BBSs, media reporters and film critics who were invited to attend the film premiere that night also began to formulate their own evaluations of the film after returning home.
Unlike the past situations where people were paid to do things, most of the invited film critics this time at least felt much more conscientious.
Even those critics who are more discerning or indifferent to such commercial blockbusters do not think that "Wushuang" is a bad movie.
At least in their opinion, compared with the works shot by the fifth and sixth generation directors, Wang Hao's "Wushuang" is already a qualified, even excellent commercial film.
So they had no pressure in praising it. Many film critics and media reporters who were very fond of this type of film even wrote reviews for "Wushuang" that night and posted them directly on the Internet.
"National Day Best: "My greatest value is fraud" - This is a true story"
A man who gives up love can never achieve great things
"Before you watch this movie, here are 3 tips for watching the movie (no key spoilers, so you can take them with confidence)"
"When the false is made to appear true, the true becomes false; when there is nothing, there is something and there is nothing"
"Analysis of Li Wen's Inner Heart: A Concerto of Art"
After all, the movie is a crime thriller and the story involves many twists and turns, so these film critics also abide by the industry rules and only touch upon the narration of the plot, focusing on praising the movie.
However, the general public is still somewhat skeptical about these unanimous positive film reviews.
After all, the domestic film market has just been reformed not long ago, and there are not many film critics who have the credibility to be recognized by the audience. Maybe these film critics are just being too soft-hearted and unwilling to take advantage of others.
However, with an article published in the middle of the night, public opinion about the movie "Wushuang" was completely ignited.
“My own movie is about to be released, and I had nothing to do recently, so I watched a new movie at the invitation of a friend.
The name of the movie is "Wushuang" and the director is Wang Hao, a very young and talented young man.
The reason why I say he is extremely talented is that the movie "Wushuang" really touched me.
I can say that this is the best suspense film I have seen in recent years, and it reminded me of the feeling I had when I first watched a Hitchcock movie.
The contradiction and unity of life and death, sin and punishment, reason and madness, innocence and temptation, repression and resistance is filled with irresistible charm.
In my opinion, the most commendable thing about the movie "Wushuang" is that no one can see through the clues and guess the truth of the story until the last second.
Even audiences with rich experience in watching suspense-themed movies cannot guess what the truth is. They can only be drawn into the plot by the director and immersed in the story for two full hours until they suddenly realize it at the last moment.
I believe that audiences who like suspense and crime films will also like this gift. Finally, I would like to express my sincere congratulations to Wang Hao and all the actors and behind-the-scenes workers of this film.
The future life is terrible! What a terrible future!
