Chapter 252 Journey to the West Premiere
It's Zhang Duo. After hearing about the popularity of "Haunting the Heavenly Palace", he was also a little uncertain. After all, Journey to the West itself is a film with a good reputation but failed at the box office. Although people have summed up the reasons for box office failure. However, in terms of box office, I have to say that "Journey to the West" still has regrets.
In Bincheng, Song Siwei and Jin Yutang still sat in the cafe opposite the riverside store of the Sacred Heart Courtyard Line, but Jin Yutang suddenly shouted, "Liu Huashun and Liu Hanyan, they also came!"
Song Siwei looked up and saw a man and a woman walking out of a Land Rover in the opposite parking lot. Among them, the man's face is arrogant, but the woman's face is outstanding and extraordinary. These two are also people in the government circle of Songjiang Province, and their parents are both senior officials in Songjiang Province.
"Master Liu usually doesn't like to watch movies, but he can actually come to watch "The Haunting Heavenly Palace", which seems to have formed a word-of-mouth effect!" Song Siwei sighed and said.
"It should be that the people of the Sacred Heart Hospital sent them tickets. They had nothing to do, so they came to have a look!" Jin Yutang muttered, but his heart was not very good.
On the side of the cinema, as soon as Liu Huashun and Liu Hanyan walked to the gate, the manager of the riverside store came out and said with a smile on his face, "Oh, Mr. Liu, Miss Liu, come here. It really makes the shop shine! Inside, please, inside, please."
Liu Huashun said with a disdainful face, "I said that in addition to "raw ashes", can you change some words, as if I were everywhere."
The cinema manager said awkwardly, "This is shallow. Next time, I will definitely change the word, and I will definitely change it."
Liu Huashun smiled contemptuously, "Next time, maybe there will be another time. Let me tell you, if it's a bad film, don't send the ticket to me!"
The cinema manager bent down and smiled, "No, I guarantee not. The ticket delivered to you must be a good film. Look at those people outside who come from the suburbs early. They just want to watch "Haunting the Heavenly Palace" earlier!"
Liu Huashun turned his head and looked at the crowd in line, smiled proudly and said, "Well, you can talk, okay! Do your business. Let's go in by ourselves!" After saying that, he took Liu Hanyan's waist and stepped into the projection hall.
Some people who have been staring at Liu Hanyan naturally see Liu Huashun's arrogance and the cinema manager's inferiority. He was indignant and cursed, "It's great to be rich!"
I didn't want the one next to him to speak: "Hey, boy, be careful not to come out of the mouth. That's the son of the mayor of Bincheng. Do you think it's just a matter of money?" The person who complained just now stopped talking.
"Two "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace!"
"80 yuan!"
"I want four "Haunting the Heavenly Palace"
"Give me "Wreak havoc in Heaven."
On January 1st, almost all the cinemas in China that launched the film "Daunting Heavenly Palace" had only this sound.
When three o'clock in the middle of the night on the 2nd, the box office on the first day was counted. Dai Anmin smiled and Wang Cheng looked up to the sky and roared. The first-day box office in mainland China reached more than 6.8 million, far more than last year's three million. By the 5th, the box office of "Journey to the West" had soared to 36 million in mainland China.
This afternoon at the Beijing Film Academy, Jin Yutang and Zhang Duo sat in the lounge prepared for them by the school and drank tea absent-mindedly.
"Ado, tell me the truth, do you have any confidence now?" Jin Yutang couldn't help asking.
Zhang Duo said to himself, I have a hairy background! But the problem is that Song Siwei and Jin Yutang now regard him as the backbone. If Zhang Duo panics, Song Siwei and Jin Yutang can't keep calm. If the "three giants of Wanbang" are not afraid of the war, wouldn't the company make people panic?
Now you are sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. There is no retreat. Zhang Duo can't even if he wants to withdraw. He can only pretend to be calm and say, "Cousin Yu, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem."
Jin Yutang stared at Zhang Duo's face carefully for a long time, but didn't see any flaws, so he continued to say, "I'm really uncertain!" A Duo, I just heard from Principal Liu that some students in the school didn't come because they bought tickets for "The Haunted Heavenly Palace". If you are not satisfied in the auditorium at that time, don't take it to heart!"
Zhang Duo heard this and scolded in his heart, "I'm against you!" I showed it to you for free, but I didn't watch it, but I spent money to watch "The Heavenly Palace". It's really embarrassing. Don't let me know who you are, or if you meet in the crew in the future, I have to ask you to show you the director's temper!" Zhang Duo thought fiercely in his heart.
At this time, under a girls' dormitory of the Beijing Film Academy, Wu Xingxing rushed to Wei Xue who came out and said, "Xiao Xue, I bought a ticket for "Haunting the Heavenly Palace"!"
After hearing this, Wei Xue ran over and said, "Really, great. What time is it?"
"Well, there is nothing in the afternoon. This one is at 5 p.m. After watching it, I don't have time to watch the premiere of Journey to the West!" Wu Xing said regretfully.
"Ah, at five o'clock, "Journey to the West" premieres at six o'clock. It's not too late at all, so what else do you buy?" Wei Xue said angrily.
Wu Xing explained, "My little aunt, I lined up for nearly one point, and it was finally my turn. If I don't buy it, won't I arrange it for nothing?"
"What about A Chinese Odyssey? I want to watch A Chinese Odyssey!" Wei Xue pouted and said angrily.
"Hey, sister, you said it's okay to watch "Haunting the Heavenly Palace"!" Wu Xing was speechless.
"I don't care. You said you would watch "Wreak havoc in Heaven" in the afternoon and "Journey to the West" in the evening, which will not conflict! Now it's a conflict, I'm going to watch Journey to the West!" Wei Xue said with an unreasonable look.
"But that ticket?" Wu Xing asked with a bitter face.
"If you resell it, you will end it. Anyway, "Havoc in Heaven" is so popular that you are not afraid that you can't sell it. If you feel that you have lined up a little bit, just add some money!"
"Well, I can't sell the money of Journey to the West!" Wu Xing gritted his teeth and said, but forgot that he only needed to get a student ID card for the premiere here.
At 6 p.m., the auditorium of the Beijing Film and Television Academy was not full. In total, less than 100 teachers, more than 700 students and dozens of media reporters have been able to vacave nearly 100 seats.
Jin Yutang and Zhang Duo looked at the empty seat and felt a little uncomfortable, but there was no other way. Because he did not invite people from other film and television companies, Zhang Duo directly asked the staff to turn off the lights and the projectionist to play the film.
At the beginning of the film, when Guanyin received Sun Wukong, there were students talking about it. They were all people who had seen "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace".
"No, this special effect is too much. It can't be compared with "The Heavenly Palace"!"
"This Monkey King looks so ugly!"
Wu Xing said to Wei Xue, "Well, why don't you watch "Haunting the Heavenly Palace"!"
Wei Xuebai glanced at him and said, "What nonsense? It's up to you!"
Five hundred years after the plot turned, when Chun 30 Niang came to Wuyue Mountain, the gangster of the supreme treasure, these students began to sigh again.
"Senior Ruixue is so beautiful!"
"My life is so good. I was selected by Director Zhang as soon as I graduated from our school, and now they are all big stars! We don't know when we can come out yet!" Wu Xing sighed on the sidelines.
He and Wei Xue will graduate next summer and have to think about their future way out. Although it has been filming for the crew, it is just a trap, and I can't help but envy Jiang Ruixue's encounter. Wei Xue just sighed and said, "People's opportunities are incomparable. Sister Ruixue is really lucky."
At this time, the leaders in the college also praised Jiang Ruixue's acting skills. After all, they are students who came out of their own college. The higher Jiang Ruixue's achievements, the brighter the faces of these teachers will be!
The 30th girl in spring, played by Jiang Ruixue, walks alone in the desert with a peach blossom. When they arrived at the residence of the Axe Gang, they showed their beautiful appearance, and the lines were even more classic.
Chun 30 Niang: "This place is smoky, and everyone's faces are ferocious. It's not like an inn. Is it a black shop?"
The second boss played by You Zhongkang smiled obscenely and said, "You know it's a black shop, but you dare to come in. Aren't you afraid of sheep entering the tiger's mouth?"
Spring Thirty: "It's too early to say who is a sheep and who is a tiger. If you are robbers, aren't you afraid that I am the head of robbers?
When the supreme treasure played by Zhang Duo appeared in the camera in the shape of eyebrows and chicken eyes, all the students in the auditorium laughed.
And when Zhizunbao said that, "Who said that I fight with chicken eyes, I just focused my eyes on one point to change my view of the past things", many teachers felt that the lines of this film seemed to have a deep meaning!
The teachers of the colleges are working to study movies. They come to watch Journey to the West. Of course, they are not like ordinary people watching movies, but just for fun. In fact, from the beginning of the film, some people have paid attention to the pictures, soundtrack and other details of the play. Nowadays, I find that the lines are different.
The video continued to play, when the supreme baby shouted, "It's not so easy to kill me. Ask my brothers first!" As a result, he turned around and found that his brothers threw away their weapons and ran away. The stunned expression of the supreme treasure immediately caused another burst of laughter.
"Well, this film may not be as visually as Haunting the Heavenly Palace, but it's still quite funny!" A student who has watched The Haunted Heavenly Palace said.
"Yes, it's quite funny! Director Zhang is already good at making comedy films. I haven't watched his "East and West" more than ten times, and it still feels so funny!" The classmate next to him whispered.
Later, the supreme treasure arranged for the second time to kill Chun 30 Niang. As a result, Chun 30 Niang showed the prototype of the spider. The period of the war with the axe gang can be said to be both thrilling and funny. The people in the auditorium held their breath and laughed for a while.
At the back of the auditorium, a young man's mouth was slightly upturned and said with a smile, "I didn't expect this film. It's a little interesting!" But it is Wang Cheng, the vice president of Sacred Heart Film and Television.
