In terms of international honors, except for two Oscars, Cheng Yuan is not inferior to Li An.

However, Cheng Yuan was not optimistic about the idea of ​​120 frames, and there were few reports the next day.

The media is still singing the praises of 120 frames.

Cheng Yu'an understands that Li An traveled all over the world to advocate for 120 frames, but he poured cold water on others on the spot. His position in the industry was so high that the media had no choice but to ignore Cheng Yu'an.

At yesterday's event, Li An revealed that he also has a movie about boxing - "Battle in Manila", and said that after filming this movie, he would like to come back to make a Chinese film.

But Cheng Yu'an knew that after "Billy Lynn" hit the streets, the movie was stillborn.

In early November, "Doctor Strange" was released online and the results were very good.

The special effects of the mirror world in the film left a very deep impression on the audience.

Tiangong Yicai took advantage of the popularity of the movie and gave netizens a general introduction to how the mirror world was created on the official Weibo account.

He also said frankly: "Mirror World is currently the most difficult special effect, and it is also the most expensive visual effects lens in the industry."

Netizens left messages on Weibo asking if Tiangong Yicai could be made.

Tiangong Yicai said aggrievedly: "It can be done, but few crews are willing to do this special effect. It is difficult for us to receive orders."

In the second week of November, released at the same time as "Billy Lynn", was the martial arts film "Stop Killing" with a long-range "evil heart".

Jiang Xuerou stubbornly did not believe that "martial arts is dead". Although the company was unwilling to make martial arts, she still recruited her old friends from Zhouyi and saved 20 million to make this film.

The biggest star in this film is Liu Shishi, who is also the ghost wife who guest-starred as the male protagonist. She was killed within ten minutes of her appearance and then lived in the memory and dreams of the protagonist.

The story is adapted from "John Wick", but the adaptation is very strong and the localization is done well. Even non-experienced viewers may not be able to see the connection between the two films.

The crew had limited funds for publicity and distribution, so they boldly chose to focus on online publicity and distribution, and mainly used short video publicity and distribution channels.

Kuaishou, Douyin, Station A and Station B have invested a lot of resources.

Half a month before the movie was released, the crew started hyping up the martial arts nostalgia.

First of all, I would like to point out that the fight scenes in current fairy tale dramas are not good to watch. Various special effects and slow motion have lost the quality that action scenes should have.

This poll did get a lot of responses from the audience.

"This group of people now, let alone practicing martial arts, they can't even ride a horse. How do you expect them to be able to fight well?"

Later, she promoted how good the fight scenes in previous martial arts films were, and Jiang Xuerou even specially selected "Water Moon Cave" for comparison.

The short video platform has indeed caused a wave of martial arts nostalgia, both big and small.

At the premiere, Cheng Yu'an and Liu Yifei rarely came to support.

"I haven't seen an enjoyable martial arts movie for a long time." Cheng Yu'an said with a smile.

At the scene, the leading actor Xie Miao, starring Li Yuan, Wang Zhifei, Wang Zhi, Yang Haoyu, and guest star Liu Shishi appeared to add to the fun.

Jiang Xuerou knew that in order for a low-budget film to get ahead, it had to do something, so she talked openly on the scene.

"They say martial arts is dead, but I never believe it. It's because young actors nowadays are too rich and don't have the time to practice, so the action scenes now are not good to watch." During this period, it is politics in the industry to criticize young actors for not being dedicated to their work.

correct.

"I want today's young audiences to see what real fighting scenes are like."

"The decline of martial arts is actually not only the discontinuation of action actors, but also the decline of martial arts actors' right to speak. Who on the crew still listens to martial arts actors now? It's all about adding special effects, slashing with a knife, explosions, and light effects.

Ah, what kind of martial arts do you need for such a fight scene?"

"I'm very disappointed with today's action movies."

Faced with the competition from "Billy Lynn", Jiang Xuerou said bluntly: "The two films are of different genres and will not form direct competition."

As for the box office, Jiang Xuerou asked for 500 million!

Of course this is bragging, 20 million for 500 million, are you crazy?

But Jiang Xuerou is "full of confidence": "I believe "Stop Killing" will detonate this winter and bring a passionate world to the audience."

Enough bragging and entering the movie watching stage.

The movie opens at night, with panicked footsteps and occasional sounds of begging for mercy and screams.

The protagonist, Sun Erlang, was unkempt and unshaven, and he killed his opponent with one knife.

Just as he was about to walk back, a flying arrow shot from outside the wall. Sun Erlang quickly cut off the flying arrow with his sword.

"What kind of hero are you for a sneak attack from behind? Come out!"

A group of people walked in from the door. The leader covered his face and wore a bamboo hat, making it difficult to see his face.

"It's you."

The person who came didn't talk nonsense. He picked up the iron rod he had brought with him and stepped forward, raising his hand to strike.

This man's men were swarming nearby.

The two fought for several rounds, but the masked man was at a disadvantage. With one careless move, he was hit by Sun Erlang and forced to retreat.

The men were about to step forward to help, but the masked man yelled: "Who do you think you are? He is mine, get out."

With that said, he swung his stick forward again, and the two started fighting.

In the end, the masked man lost one of his hands to Sun Erlang, and the masked man finally killed the protagonist.

"Brother, he's dead." The subordinate said happily after checking the protagonist's breathing and pulse.

"Cut off one of his fingers and go back to do business."

The men waved their swords and the screen went black.

The title of the film is - "Stop Killing".

The screen lit up again, and Sun Erlang woke up with a start.

It turned out to be a dream!

Sun Erlang got up, took a handful of water, wiped his face, and went out.

He and his wife ran a small inn in a small frontier town, and their business was booming. The couple lived a happy life.

Liu Shishi's guest wife does not have a real name, and everyone calls her from the Erlang family.

Liu Shishi, dressed in coarse linen clothes, was greeting customers in the store. When she saw her husband coming out, she smiled and said, "Are you awake?"

"Yeah." Sun Erlang responded with a smile.

"The wine in the store is almost gone. You can go get another cart."

"Okay." Sun Erlang agreed.

The regular patrons in the store greeted him one after another:

"Second brother, when are you going to have a baby? We are waiting for the wedding banquet."

"That's right, second brother, you and your sister-in-law have been married for five or six years, and all my dolls are running around the streets. You have to hurry up."

"Erlang, if you have something to hide, just tell your brother, I have a recipe passed down from our ancestors, just eat it and it will be good."

The folk customs in the frontier are rough and rough, and men and women have no scruples in speaking.

Sun Erlang smiled and talked to his old friends and answered them one by one.

"Everyone, if you eat well and drink well, you will definitely be able to have a wedding banquet next year." Erlang handed over to the store, packed up, and went out to drink.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a man in brocade clothes bringing someone into the store. Erlang just thought he was a young master from some family, stepped aside, invited the person in with a smile, and went out by himself.

Sun Erlang hitched a cart. His family could not afford mules and horses, so he relied on his own strength to pull the goods.

The camera follows Sun Erlang out of the inn, and the style of the frontier town is revealed to the audience under the leadership of Sun Erlang.

Sun Erlang was very popular in the town, and people greeted him along the way.

We drank wine at a winery outside the city and waited for Erlang to return to the city.

"Erlang, go back quickly, something happened to your family." As soon as he entered the city, someone reported to him.

Sun Erlang suddenly felt sick, left the cart and ran all the way back to his inn.

I saw that the inn was in a mess, cups and dishes were broken on the floor, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air.

The wife and the only boy in the store fell in a pool of blood and had already died.

Sun Erlang knelt on the ground, holding his wife's body, looking up to the sky and crying bitterly!
