Chapter 585: A Battlefield Without Gunpowder Part I
Chapter 585 A battlefield without smoke (1)
July 20th.
The patter of raindrops washed over the land of Yanjing, and the distance was hazy and the mist was rising.
Jiang Ge was in excitement all night. He didn't feel tired even after staying up all night, as if his whole body had endless energy.
In the past, when watching movies, TV series, and novels, I would always see the three words "sense of mission." Jiang Ge once thought that these three words were simple artistic creation and sublimation, but when he saw "Spider-Man", it really broke Hollywood.
The moment the movie "Time Travel" hit the box office record, Django instantly felt his blood boiling and at the same time he felt a heavy sense of mission weighing on him.
This sense of mission turned into a kind of courage, and the moment he arrived at the premiere of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2", he straightened his back.
"Mr. Jiang Ge, some people think that it is a bit irrational for your "Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2" to be released at the same time as "Mutation". What do you think about this?"
"Go your own way and let others tell you..."
"Mr. Jiang Ge, many people are pessimistic about "Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2" and think you are too impulsive. We all want to know what made you release the movie together with "Alien"? This movie is
In a movie directed by Mr. Delson, you won’t be so inflated that you think you can compare with Mr. Delson, right? Or, do you want to kill the gods?”
"There is no god in this world, and there is no such thing as killing gods. I just release my "Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2" at the right time. That's all. It has nothing to do with "Mutation"..."
"..."
"Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2" did not hold a premiere, but just invited some people to watch the premiere...
Before the premiere, I will naturally invite some media with whom I have good relationships.
But it is inevitable that some other unscrupulous media will be mixed in and want to cause trouble.
When Jiang Ge entered the scene, he naturally heard a lot of unpleasant negative voices.
Jiang Ge smiled lightly, confident as usual, and after a few simple responses, he walked step by step towards the seats of the creative team.
In that direction, Donnie Yen, Liu Tingting, Li Tianwang, Liu Tianwang and others were sitting. When they saw him coming, everyone had smiles on their faces and nodded to him.
There are not many actors from the Xinghui faction...
These people were extremely well-informed and knew that Jiang Ge had signed a contract with China Star, either because they were invited by "The Mutation" or because they were avoiding suspicion, so most of them did not come.
Looking at several empty seats, Jiang Ge immediately asked the staff to remove the labels from the seats and replace them with other Huaxing staff.
Jiang Ge, who used to be very face-conscious, felt that it didn't matter at this moment, and he didn't even have any trouble in his heart.
but……
Just when he was about to withdraw from Cao Bangguo's position, Jiang Ge paused and hesitated for a while: "Keep this position for now."
There was still half an hour before the show, when there was a commotion outside the house...
The media chased and blocked him, and finally got to Zhou Yang.
Amid waves of screams and excitement, Zhou Yang walked into the screening room and followed Jiang Ge to say hello.
After seeing Zhou Yang's arrival, Jiang Ge was extremely excited. It was an emotion between excitement and reverence.
"Mr. Zhou!"
"Well, Director Jiang, come on!"
"good!"
Just a few words inspired Jiang Ge. He nodded, and after greeting Zhou Yang to sit down, his heart kept beating.
"The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, Xiao Jiang, I'm afraid I will have to witness history again this time!"
Later, Zhou Yilin also came.
Zhou Yilin patted Jiang Ge on the shoulder and sighed with admiration.
Although he didn’t know how much sincerity there was in Zhou Yilin’s words, let alone whether there was a connotation of flattery in these words, Jiang Ge was still in high spirits, as if he saw them overcoming obstacles in the new era,
Shake and prop up the building...
"You are a warrior!"
Feng Kai naturally came too, and gave Jiang Ge a thumbs up when he came.
In fact, when he learned that Django was going to take over the task of sniping the first battle of "The Mutation", he was very shocked, and then he felt a sense of admiration.
…
Time passed little by little.
People who were familiar with Jiang Ge and those who were not familiar with him came one after another.
The premiere hall with thousands of people is gradually starting to fill up.
The smile on Jiang Ge's face gradually stiffened, and he was as excited as ever, but when his eyes glanced at the location where Cao Bangguo was written, his mood was still filled with some undue expectations.
But this expectation was destined to be disappointed.
Although "Mutation" is a Hollywood production, it is also a movie produced by Xinghui. At this juncture, it is impossible for Cao Bangguo to come and watch him.
"Director Jiang, that position... how about..."
"Keep it."
The door of the premiere hall slowly closed, and after closing, the lights dimmed instantly.
The big screen flickered with light, illuminating Django's slightly disappointed face, but when the main film officially started, the disappointment was finally replaced by expectation and hope.
His journey has officially begun!
……………………
This era is always an era where the winner takes all.
The premiere of "Alien" was very lively.
Almost half of the filmmakers and media from the Chinese film industry came.
Delson very confidently talked to all the media about the original intention of creating "Aberration" and how much sweat and bitterness he had put into this film.
The "actors" invited below immediately began wiping away tears, sensationalizing the scene into a mess.
During this period, some media members handed the microphone to Belinda, one of the supporting actresses. Not sure if it was because she wanted to stir up trouble, and asked Belinda if she would regret rejecting "Spider-Man" to participate in "Alien".
When Belinda was at a loss, her mother Kardashian immediately took over the phone.
"The one who really should regret is not us, but Mr. Zhou Yang of "Spider-Man". It is undeniable that the movie box office of "Spider-Man" is not bad, but "Alien" is a work of a true master of science fiction movies. Look
After watching "Alien", you will know the difference between the two movies..."
The confident answer did not cause much uproar.
Mainstream Chinese filmmakers and media people are extremely optimistic about "Mutation". Just a promotional video clip will shock people to the extreme. The feature film of this movie is definitely more exciting. Some people have even predicted that "Mutation" will be
"The premiere box office is very likely to break the record of "Spider-Man" again.
After the premiere, it’s time for the movie to be released...
Cao Bangguo followed Wu Tong and sat down below, watching the movie officially begin after the commercials.
I don't know why, Cao Bangguo felt a little uneasy.
On the one hand, I feel that Jiang Ge is too irrational. On the other hand, I feel that this guy Zhou Yang is really harmful to people. Throwing Jiang Ge into the fire pit is like a bastard who eats people without spitting out their bones.
Before the premiere of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2", Jiang Ge once again called Cao Bangguo.
On the phone, he invited Cao Bangguo.
Cao Bangguo did not refuse, but said he would come over when he had time.
but……
Cao Bangguo even knew that this was just a polite comment.
There's no way he can pass.
"This movie is really exciting. The technology in the United States is decades more advanced than ours in China!"
Wu Tong's admiration from beside him brought Cao Bangguo out of his thoughts.
Cao Bangguo was visually shocked when he saw the grand scenes and exciting special effects in the movie.
"Mutation" tells the story of a spaceship that was on a mission when the crew accidentally became infected with a very strange virus, which forced them to make an emergency landing on a mysterious planet.
The conditions of that planet were exactly the same as those of the Earth in all aspects. It had air, atmosphere, and even plants similar to those of the Earth. But the only thing that shocked the crew was that the planet had such a high oxygen content, but there were no animals. When they returned,
While exploring, they discovered that some plants looked similar to humans. At the same time, the crew members infected by the virus began to turn green all over and moved slowly. At this time, the captain collected a signal, and the signal only had one sentence:
The words, that is, "Get out of here! Get out of here quickly!"
The imagination full of suspense and the eye-catching plot made all the audiences present couldn't help but marvel.
Cao Bangguo listened to these exclamations and watched the plot of the movie, and couldn't help but want to applaud.
Even though he had seen it once, he was still excited!
Later, as he watched the plot, he was unconsciously fascinated by the movie world outlined by Delson, and began to explore this unknown world from the perspective of the protagonist.
The two-and-a-half-hour movie plot finally came to an end with applause and excitement...
"Is this the end?"
"It's too short!"
“It’s really scary to think about it. The origin of human beings is really scary to think about!”
"This is the work of a true film master, damn! This may be the most awesome science fiction film I have seen this year!"
"..."
In the screening room, countless voices came and went.
Some people were so excited that they shed tears and were completely speechless. It was as if they had watched a feast, feeling both satisfied and regretful.
Cao Bangguo also stood up.
He was excited at first, and then became heavy-hearted.
"Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2" is a complete dead end compared to "Mutation"!
……………………
The premiere of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2" also ended with bursts of applause.
The filming of the movie is not bad, and the plot and special effects are also at a stage that satisfies the audience.
Jiang Ge felt a little unreasonably lonely.
Cao Bangguo's seat was always empty. He never came over or even made a phone call.
But then this feeling of loneliness disappeared, and Zhou Yang, Jiang Ge, Zhou Yilin and others came to congratulate him...
He left one group and joined another.
Everyone must be like-minded and have the same dream.
He followed a group of people out of the hospital and returned to Huaxing's office.
Waiting is an extremely long time, especially waiting for the first box office to appear, which is even more torture.
People can't help but worry about gains and losses, especially after seeing the rave reviews after the premiere of "Alien". He was obviously ready for everything, but when things got to this point, he still felt nervous.
Until early morning...
When the box office came out, his nervousness finally subsided a little...
