765 This man is so miserable that he makes me cry!
This summer’s movie market should be said to be more active than in previous years.
Before July 13th, SARS had been hanging in the minds of the people across the country like a sword, and the movie theater was just like a famous line said: there were no people in the movie theater on Sunday.
This situation has improved greatly after July 13th. SARS has basically ended, and everyone is ready to relax and eliminate the worries caused by SARS.
As a result, the number of people coming to support the stores at the next level increased overnight.
But if we analyze it more carefully, the people who enter the theater are basically students and young people.
Most of the migrant workers continue to be busy at work, and because of SARS, the domestic economy has been affected to a certain extent. Everyone generally does not have enough money in their pockets, and their lives are difficult, so they can only earn more money to replenish their income.
Under such circumstances, it will definitely have an impact on the movie box office market, which has just returned to normal.
Fortunately, the real main consumers in the current movie market are still mainly movie fans and young people. Take last summer's "Savage Girl" as an example. The box office of 200 million is very eye-catching, but the proportion of young people among them has to reach
More than 80%.
Such data is not only for the summer holiday, but also for the Lunar New Year holiday and National Day holiday.
No matter what movie you watch, the proportion of young people in the box office consumption structure may increase or decrease, but it will never be less than 60%.
This is the statistical result of Star Cinema Unicom’s franchise theaters over the past year and a half.
The same was true for last year's "Hero". About 68% of the domestic box office of 310 million was contributed by fans under the age of 25.
Therefore, young people are the main consumer force of movies today.
In fact, most people cannot see this kind of data without careful statistics.
Even Jiang Yan himself initially thought that young people and students might not have that much spending power. After all, going to the movies these days is not an ordinary expense. A movie ticket averages 15 yuan, which is enough for many students.
Days of living are all spent.
But the data doesn't lie.
Of course, this data does not mean that this is the case across the country, but the more developed the city, the higher the box office contribution, the greater the proportion.
For this reason, when "When a Man Falls in Love" was released this time, Jiang Yan had no scruples in using promotional words such as "summer release" and "Chinese Valentine's Day", which were mainly targeted at students and young people.
In fact, before 2002, there was a common consensus in the mainland film industry that the summer season was very cold and it was the off-season of the year.
The concept of summer movie originally came from Hollywood, which is from May to August every year. Every summer is the peak season for the release of new Hollywood movies. Various new movies compete with each other, which makes the media and movie fans excited.
The domestic summer program was first proposed in 2001 by Huang Jianxin, the future director of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China".
The movie "Who Says I Don't Care" directed by him, starring Feng Gong and Lu Liping, was billed as "China's first summer entertainment film".
But it is a pity that in the end, the box office was only 14 million. Although it ranked sixth in the mainland box office rankings of Chinese-language films that year, it can hardly be called a success.
It is also because of this that more filmmakers are more inclined to grab high-quality domestic projects every year for the Lunar New Year and National Day festivals.
But in fact, this argument is inaccurate. Before 2002, the summer schedule of mainland movies may not be outstanding now, but it is far from being poor.
Although "Who Says I Don't Care" in 2001 only had 14 million, the combined box office of other movies in the same period also exceeded 100 million.
This number is definitely not bad considering that the mainland's annual box office in 2001 was only 800 million.
So it's just that the movie itself doesn't hold up.
You see, isn't it completely different in 2002?
In 2002, Jiang Yan's "Savage Girl" immediately took in 200 million box office, beating "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones", "Spider-Man", "The Gun" and "Legend of the Sky" at the time.
.
Of course, you can also say that "Savage Girl" is very special. The various bonuses of this movie are too great. But no matter what, the combined box office of all movies in the summer last year exceeded 300 million, accounting for 30% of the whole year.
% or above, so the summer season will definitely not be bad.
But even so, due to various aspects of psychology towards Hollywood, the domestic film industry still does not pay enough attention to the summer season.
In the original time and space, this was the case until 2003, when two imported films, "The Matrix 2" and "Finding Dory," and Brother Long's "The Dragon Reborn," jointly earned more than 100 million in box office.
The stable box office of more than 100 million for two consecutive years has allowed many people to see the potential of the summer season.
It is also because of this that New Picture Boss Zhang and Lao Mouzi thought about it many times and named the new film "House of Flying Daggers" as a summer blockbuster. It was listed in the 2004 summer season and won 156 million at the box office.
It is precisely because of this movie that domestic film companies and theaters saw the potential of the summer season and increased their investment in exploring it. It eventually became one of the top peak season periods in the domestic film market every year.
Therefore, while the industry generally does not pay much attention to the summer season, Jiang Yan realizes that this is a blue ocean.
It is also because of this that "Savage Girl" was scheduled for summer release last year.
And the final effect is also very explosive with the addition of all aspects.
More than two hundred million!
Who would have thought at that time that a romance film like that could achieve such high box office in an unpopular market like the summer season?
But Jiang Yan just did it!
Many people feel that this is not because of the summer film's great potential, but because of Jiang Yan's strong box office appeal.
So to a certain extent, if Jiang Yan were more shameless, the summer movie could be promoted as being activated by Stars and Sea! Furthermore, he could use the summer movie as his own place for Stars and Sea.
Of course Jiang Yan would never do this, it would be hateful, and besides, he doesn't have the ability.
The right way is to expand the market and give support to domestic filmmakers. Only in this way can Star Cinema make more money.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! And since then, it has not affected everyone's expectations for the movie "Stars and Sea" every summer vacation.
Just like now, everyone looks forward to Feng Dapao's movie every year during the Lunar New Year.
So when "When Men Fall in Love" had a series of promotional slogans such as "Fight Again in Summer", "Domestic Love Business Movie in Summer", "This Summer: Domestic Commercial Films Vs. Hollywood", almost all film industry professionals and media across the country were all
Helping shout out, there are a lot of stars and seas taking the lead, and they want to put a red flag on the level of this summer's summer season again.
By this time, many people didn’t even realize that everyone had subconsciously accepted the concept that “summer is the peak season.”
In addition to the formation of the concept of the summer film, "When Men Fall in Love" is scheduled to premiere on July 20th, and August 4th is Chinese Valentine's Day. This is within the release cycle and can be speculated!
You should know that it will take many years before the concept of "Chinese Valentine's Day" is officially commercialized in China.
Before that, "Chinese Valentine's Day" was even called "a traditional festival that has been forgotten for hundreds of years" by the media.
Therefore, as a domestic love movie, Jiang Yan would feel sorry for his ancestors if he did not promote the concept of "Valentine's Day" in China at this time.
So after the various slogans of the previous summer season, various sweet marketing slogans followed.
“Send roses on Valentine’s Day abroad, watch movies on Chinese Valentine’s Day!”
"The flowers are similar every year, and the people are the same every year. When we meet on the magpie bridge, we watch movies together."
"Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying cooperated for the second time to help Chinese Valentine's Day on Chinese Valentine's Day."
"Come to the cinema on Chinese Valentine's Day and meet your Cowherd and Weaver Girl..."
Jiang Yan doesn't care whether it's embarrassing or not. Anyway, for today's audience, there are still few business routines to see. As long as it is fresh, it can attract people.
For a movie with excellent box office, marketing and publicity may account for more than 30%.
Last year's "My Sassy Girl" borrowed a lot of inspiration from the World Cup and the "true story adaptation" of China and South Korea, which made it so bright at the box office.
But this time it’s different. This time the movie doesn’t have a favorable wind to take advantage of. Even because of the science fiction film “Moon”, it has been pushed back to a certain extent, so it is basically impossible for the box office to exceed 200 million this time.
However, Jiang Yan did not set the box office so high at the beginning. He just wanted to surpass his opponents in the same period.
Therefore, during the promotion period, Jiang Yan still spent a lot of effort on publicity.
For example, when it comes to trailer distribution, he worked with several TV stations to obtain trailer push at a friendly price. From the Yangshi sub-channel to municipal local stations, the trailer was broadcast on more than 30 TV stations in total.
On the Internet, "When Men Fall in Love" has an exclusive cooperation with Sina. The former has received full promotion from one of the three major portals, and the latter has obtained exclusive news about the film and its creators and related online activities.
As for QQ, Jiang Yan, as the major shareholder, also has special privileges. Not only can news about the movie be directly pushed to him, but the new QQ show also has the same versions of the movie characters.
Jiang Yan, who now has almost 100 million QQ friends, will enthusiastically "remind" his friends every now and then that the weather is fine, why not go out and watch a movie. This summer, I will star in...
This model already did this last year.
And thanks to the high reputation of "Savage Girl" and Jiang Yan's own popularity, this mode not only did not make people disgusted, but also made many people excited.
Even if you are not excited, this kind of casting-net publicity will contribute a very considerable box office if even one thousandth of the hundreds of millions of friends are interested.
Nowadays, many people in the film and television industry have not realized the promotional power of the Internet. Jiang Yan can be said to be the first wave of people to use the Internet platform to promote and distribute movies in large quantities.
Therefore, with the help of publicity resources from all parties, "When Men Fall in Love" became the most famous movie in the summer of 2003, especially on the Internet, it was almost overwhelmingly popular.
This summer season, there are not many movies released in the mainland.
Two Hollywood blockbusters, "Finding Nemo" are animated films, and there are still restrictions in China. Many movie fans feel that spending money to watch an animated film is a bit of a loss.
The "Matrix 2" series has returned to great fame, but its non-local operations are still not as powerful as the "Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying" team-up.
"Flying Dragon Reborn" is also famous thanks to Cheng Long, but Brother Long currently doesn't pay much attention to the mainland. He still places the main battlefield in Hollywood, East Asia and Hong Kong. He didn't even come to the mainland to promote it.
Naturally, the competitiveness is not great.
So in mid-July, it would be an exaggeration to say that I was out of the movie without hearing about it, but people who often pay attention to entertainment and movies basically know one sentence, that is, "This Chinese Valentine's Day, watch "When a Man Falls in Love" with him or her.
hour"."
Romantic Chinese Valentine's Day, watching a love movie with your favorite partner is enough to attract many young people.
It doesn't matter whether girls love romance, whether boys are romantic or not, but if you go out to watch a movie, the mood is right, and the time is right, the rest is the difference between high EQ and low EQ.
In this way, this summer season has officially kicked off with the attention of the entire industry...
"Azhen, let me invite you to watch a movie on Chinese Valentine's Day."
In Guangdong Province, Lin Xiaoqiang got off work and rode a three-kilometer bicycle to pick up his good friend Azhen from get off work as usual. On the way home together, Lin Xiaoqiang finally made up his mind and plucked up the courage to send out an invitation.
When Ah Zhen, who was in the back seat, heard this, her face turned slightly red.
Naturally, she knew what Lin Xiaoqiang's words meant.
These days, the Internet is talking about the Chinese Valentine's Day.
Chinese Valentine's Day is Chinese Valentine's Day.
Taking your loved one to watch a movie on this day has become a form of confession between many shy men and women nowadays.
Azhen and Lin Xiaoqiang are shy men and women. In a more unrestrained way, they are ambiguous and have a crush on each other. In an artistic way, they are more than friendship, but not lovers.
In fact, strictly speaking, Azhen has had a crush on Lin Xiaoyu for a long time. Unfortunately, the man in front of her who is trying hard to pedal is too stupid and has not expressed anything for so long. This also makes Azhen think a lot of time, otherwise
Just say it yourself first.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But how can a girl speak first about this kind of thing?
So the situation between the two of them has remained like this until now.
Just when Azhen was worrying about whether the window paper between the two would never be broken, she didn't expect that her idol Jiang Yan would help her.
So of course A-Zhen would not refuse A-Qiang's invitation.
So she tried her best to suppress her inner excitement and replied gently: "Okay, I also want to watch Jiang Yan's new movie."
As a result, Aqiang was a little confused when he heard this and said: "What's so good about romance movies? Let's go see "The Matrix 2", it's a science fiction blockbuster!"
Azhen: "..."
When the appointed day arrived, the two finally walked into the theater of "When Men Fall in Love".
Ah Qiang was still like a piece of wood at this point. He confirmed to Ah Zhen again: "A Zhen, is this ticket really free?"
Azhen rolled her eyes inwardly, she was really convinced by this big piece of wood.
But she knows that now that she has identified this person, this shortcoming is nothing. What's more, this is not a shortcoming, and it may become an advantage in the future.
"Yes, Arlene was unable to come because of something, so it was an advantage for us."
"Then if you have the chance, you still have to pay them back. 30 yuan is not a small amount of money."
"I know, it's time to start, let's go in."
With that said, the two of them walked side by side and entered the ticket gate with a group of lovers hanging together around them.
After entering the theater and sitting down, Aqiang looked at the couples around him and suddenly felt a little moved.
He is not a fool who doesn't understand anything, he is just too afraid of losing.
He cherishes his current relationship with Azhen very much. Although there is distance and although it has not reached that point, it is at least better than being friends after failing to confess his love.
But now, looking at those intimate lovers, Aqiang wanted to muster up the courage to hold the hand next to him.
Unfortunately, until the beginning of the movie, he still had not made up his mind.
What he didn't know was that Azhen on the side felt helpless in her heart again.
I didn't even put down the armrest, just to create opportunities for you, why are you still so stupid!
In desperation, Azhen can only decide to release the final plan.
She decided to take the initiative at the top of the movie!
She has not seen the movie, but she has briefly read some of the online reviews.
Everyone said that this movie is very good-looking, and the plot behind it is very healing, just like "Savage Girl", the two protagonists finally held hands and were together.
So that's the best time.
This time, we must let this wood come to its senses!
With this in mind, the movie officially started.
The very beginning of the movie is the scene where Jiang Ren, played by Jiang Yan, is collecting debts from his fat boss.
There are actually many highlights in this scene. Jiang Yan subverts the image once again. The male protagonist in the experiment is so ruthless and stunned that he pours gasoline into his mouth. The dialect of the younger brother Huang Bo is also good, combined with the impressive picture.
His face made many people remember him.
The audience also saw that the male protagonist's method is to hurt himself at the expense of being soft. He is afraid of being hard, and being hard is afraid of risking his life. Once he risks his life, he will most likely take down the debtor.
At the same time, Jiang Yan can be regarded as a thief. After knowing that the debtor was really in trouble, he withdrew a sum of money from the debt, which reflected the image of a righteous gangster who kept a line in his work and would not kill everyone.
This also gives the protagonist a good reputation among local merchants, and many people will say "Ren Ge".
In the first few minutes, the image of a ruthless but not very bad gangster emerged in my mind.
Then the plot quickly got to the point. On this day, the boss of Jiang Wen Experiment gave him a new task to collect money from an old man who was in debt.
The carefree male protagonist came to the hospital and met the female protagonist Zhou Ting, played by Yan Danchen, and fell in love at first sight.
Out of professional ethics, after a confrontation, the male protagonist transferred the old man's debt to the female protagonist, but he couldn't help but think about the female protagonist in his heart. Before leaving, he was thoughtful and wanted to help the female protagonist.
.
In this scene, those who watch carefully will see many details at a glance.
The male protagonist falls in love at first sight, and the steely straight man is in love with her.
The heroine is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She confronts gangsters and signs debts for her father, which is a bit pitiful and yet tough.
And under Chen Kexin's lens, this scene has more flavor than the Korean version.
When filming the heroine, Chen Kexin captured Yan Danchen and the character's softness on the outside and strength on the inside. The heroine on the screen is pure, gentle, tough and slightly wild, which immediately fixed the audience's heart as "
"Ren Yingying" Yan Danchen was liberated.
Moreover, Chen Kexin is good at filming female protagonists, and she is also better at filming male protagonists.
Lai Ming and Jin Chengwu under Chen Kexin's lens are extremely handsome, and they are more eye-catching than the female protagonists in the same movie.
Especially Kim Sung-wu, who was extremely handsome in the movie "If Love" and gained countless female fans.
In terms of appearance, Jiang Yan is not inferior to Takeshi Kaneshiro in the slightest. Even though he was intentionally restrained in this film because of his role as a gangster, gangsters can be as handsome as gangsters, and sometimes the handsome gangsters can be much more handsome than the gentle and gentle Mr. Nice Guy.
Therefore, Jiang Yan has attracted the attention of countless female audiences since he first appeared on the stage.
As the movie continues, the male protagonist interacts with the female protagonist for the first time and is merciless. His eyes are gentle and smiling, and his tough-tongued and soft-hearted performance has shocked many female viewers.
This made Azhen no longer pay attention to the motionless wooden arm beside her. Like many female compatriots at the scene, she couldn't help but exclaim:
"Ah ah, Jiang Yan is so handsome."
"Even a gangster can act so handsome..."
The male compatriots wanted to refute, but after looking at the face on the screen, they really had to admit that it was quite handsome.
And not only is he handsome, his figure that can be hidden under the floral shirt but is still enviable is also the envy of countless male compatriots.
In fact, everyone is quite talented.
Everyone knows this is Jiang Yan, so they won’t humiliate themselves.
But let others try?
You can't show your manhood without mumbling a few words...
After meeting her for the first time, the male protagonist followed the female protagonist. After learning that the female protagonist was in trouble to repay her debt, he became more and more eager to help her, and then took the initiative to come to her door to meet someone.
As a result, his reckless behavior directly made the other party think that he was up to something evil. Finally, the misunderstanding was resolved. The male protagonist asked the female protagonist to go out to dinner on the pretext of helping the female protagonist find a way to pay off the debt. This was originally an opportunity to perform well. If done well, it would be easy to win the female protagonist.
some good feelings.
It turns out that the male protagonist is a straight man and has little experience with girls, so he turns into a chat genius and changes the subject as he talks.
He went on a date with someone else to talk about kidney transplantation, and taught the heroine about selling kidneys. The heroine was so angry that she thought the hero was threatening her, so she left angrily.
This plot also made the audience laugh out loud, especially A-Zhen. At this moment, she felt that the male protagonist was simply A-Qiang, with the same incomprehensible charm and inability to speak.
The theater was filled with laughter and the plot continued. Although the two broke up on bad terms after their first chat, the male protagonist was not angry and came to the female protagonist’s father’s hospital the next day to help take care of the old man.
Facing the cold face of the female protagonist, the male protagonist who fell in love at first sight didn't care at all and took the initiative to find the boss and take the debt on himself.
The boss gave him face as a capable subordinate and wiped out the interest, but the principal was still not a fraction, and almost wiped out most of the male protagonist's savings.
That night, I went to the hospital to give the heroine a midnight snack and came up with a new agreement.
He has his own little calculation. He knows that the heroine hates him, so he plans to use debt to get closer to the audience of the heroine.
The male protagonist draws a cartoon portrait of the female protagonist, which is divided into dozens of squares, and asks the female protagonist to accompany him to have sex.
For an hour every day, accompany him to eat, drink, walk, chat, or do something else. After finishing, he will fill in the squares with a colored pen. When all the squares are filled, the debt will be written off.
The heroine hated this gangster very much, but due to debt, she had no choice but to agree, so the two began to enjoy the enemy mode.
If one person is happily dating and the other person is coping with the problem, the scene will naturally be infinitely embarrassing.
The male protagonist also knows the current situation, but he is very happy to see the female protagonist.
Because of this, he began to pay more attention to dressing up, getting rid of his sloppy habits, paying attention to personal hygiene, no longer wearing flashy clothes, and making himself better and brighter every day.
In fact, the female protagonist is not at all indifferent to the male protagonist's various overtures.
Especially every time she gets a cold face, the male protagonist doesn't care. He also brings her breakfast every morning and supper every night.
When a client makes trouble at work, the male protagonist steps forward to help her. Sometimes when she is busy, she helps take care of her old man in the ward and cleans her body without hesitation.
Sometimes he chats with the old man. Although he is a bit indifferent and even calls him father-in-law directly, which makes the heroine sulky, the old man likes him quite a lot.
In reality, a licking dog licks until the end, leaving nothing behind.
But it's hard to say in the movie, especially with Jiang Yan's handsome face, the heroine's attitude towards him is gentle, so that the audience does not feel any stiffness or logical loopholes.
Some girls even think that the heroine is a bit "unconscious", and they would have pounced on her...
Therefore, under various offensives, the heroine's attitude towards the hero began to loosen, and she no longer refused coldly when faced with advances.
When eating at the same table, she remained motionless at first, then started to move her chopsticks. The male protagonist brought her some food, and she gradually got used to it and ate it.
When walking together, from the beginning she was far away from the male protagonist, to walking side by side, the male protagonist tentatively walked close to her, she pushed her twice, but did not push away, so she acquiesced to this position.
When the male protagonist takes her to try on clothes, she no longer refuses with a cold face and just pays the bill herself.
The same scene and different attitude changes made the audience watch it with gusto, and some viewers even had aunty smiles on their faces.
It's just that the movie is less than half an hour old now. If nothing else happens, something will definitely happen.
Sure enough, the first hidden danger appeared. When the male protagonist was paying a debt, he encountered a difficult debtor, so that the male protagonist had to take action. He had a fierce fight with the debtor and was finally taken away by the police.
,
But this scene was seen by the heroine, which brought her back to real life.
How can a debtor and a debt collector have a future like this?
When the male protagonist was released from detention for two days, he went to the hospital to find the female protagonist. The female protagonist went out to get food, and the female protagonist’s father took the opportunity to beg to go out and bask in the sun.
The male protagonist was unwilling at first because he was afraid of an accident, but the old man insisted strongly and asked the doctor. The doctor looked at the old man with regret and said that he could do whatever he wanted.
This sentence made the male protagonist understand why the old man went out to bask in the sun and stayed in bed for several years. His death was approaching and he wanted to go out for some air before he died.
So he found a wheelchair and pushed the old man to the rooftop terrace of the hospital. The old man was very happy. Then he took Jiang Yan's hand and said that he saw that he was a good person and asked him to take more care of his daughter in the future.
The male protagonist solemnly nodded in agreement, and the old man smiled happily and patted his hand.
After watching the sun for a while, the male protagonist planned to push the old man back to the ward, but he ran into the female protagonist who had just arrived in a hurry.
She just came back from cooking and found that her father was missing. It turned out that he was pushed out by the male protagonist. She was so upset because of the previous incident that she couldn't help but get angry. Regardless of the explanations of the male protagonist and her father, she broke up with him angrily.
The male protagonist was wronged and was so angry that he asked his younger brothers to drink and complained to the female protagonist to vent his dissatisfaction.
But the next day, when I learned that the heroine’s father had passed away, I immediately came to the heroine’s house.
Because of the debt problem, relatives and friends hardly interacted with each other. In the crude mourning hall, only the heroine burned paper with empty eyes.
After the male protagonist arrived, he kowtowed incense and directly used his identity as son-in-law to wear sackcloth and express mourning. He invited a group of merchants to express condolences, and then contacted the funeral home to let the old man be buried in a grand manner. He ran around and took care of the old man's aftermath.
thing.
The female protagonist silently watched all this and was moved in her heart, so she accepted the male protagonist again and apologized to him for what happened in the hospital that day. Afterwards, she learned what happened from the doctor and knew that she had wrongly blamed the male protagonist.
host.
After that, there was a confession on the rooftop, the male and female protagonists kissed, officially became a couple, and sprinkled sugar crazily.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Living together, cooking together, eating together, feeding each other, washing together, and walking and shopping together.
In these scenes, the heroine's attitude is completely opposite to that of the previous two times. In the first two times, the heroine was aloof and ignored, but this time, the heroine turned her back and took the initiative to try on the hero's clothes and take the initiative to pick up food for the hero.
, took the initiative to knock down the male protagonist at night, with tons of dog food in short, so that the lovers in the theater almost left the scene and started a fight...
But as I said before, normally, when the plot of a love movie reaches this level, it will either end directly or start to cause trouble.
The movie is not yet halfway through, far from the end, so there is no doubt that things are going to happen next.
And what happens next has been foreshadowed before.
After officially becoming lovers, the male and female protagonists lived a sweet life, and this problem was solved. However, the female protagonist made a request to the male protagonist.
Hope he changes his career!
Firstly, this business is dangerous because of the male protagonist’s debt collection methods. In fact, he is the one who suffers the most harm. Secondly, this business is indeed not a job that is going through life.
Therefore, the female protagonist hopes that the male protagonist can find a normal job, and expresses her wish that the two of them open a snack bar together, with the male protagonist outside and the female protagonist inside, having a child, and the family can live in a down-to-earth manner.
Live life.
The male protagonist was moved by the future described by the female protagonist. Judging from his style of doing things, he does not like to fight and kill.
When he first went astray, he was still young and energetic, and he had a misunderstanding with his father, so he eventually degenerated into a gangster.
Now that he has a heroine, he has a bond in his heart, and he also wants to change his ways and return to the prodigal son.
The male protagonist went to his boss to resign. The other party was very reluctant to let go of his capable general, but the male protagonist had made up his mind and had no choice. The two parties agreed that they could retire from the world after the male protagonist finished handling the last order.
On this day, the male protagonist finished all the orders and called some of his younger brothers to drink and say goodbye.
After bidding farewell to his little brother who couldn't bear to shed tears, the male protagonist left with emotion, but suddenly collapsed from severe pain on the way.
The next scene is a terminal illness of one of the three treasures of Korean dramas.
I wonder if the male protagonist drank too much gasoline and got a brain tumor. Treatment requires a lot of money and may not be successful.
Although the current terminal illness meme is not new, it has not been completely abused. At least the audience will not dislike the old stereotype, but everyone has a bit of an ominous premonition.
However, everyone still feels somewhat lucky that terminal illness can still be misdiagnosed or cured. After all, the reversal of terminal illness in movies and TV dramas is also a classic routine.
With this mentality in mind, everyone continues to watch below.
The terminal illness has a great impact on the male protagonist. Good days are just around the corner. However, the result tells him that he has a terminal illness and is likely to die soon. Someone with poor mental endurance would have collapsed long ago.
Back home, the heroine happily cooked a meal to celebrate his withdrawal from the industry, and gave all the salary and bonuses she had saved in the past two months to the hero to prepare for opening a store, and looked forward to the future with a look of longing.
The snack bar business is booming.
Looking at the heroine whose face is full of longing for a better future, the hero suppresses all the words in his heart.
A few days later, the hostess selected a store with a good location and suitable conditions in all aspects. However, the rent was not cheap, and coupled with miscellaneous other expenses, it was not cheap to open a store.
In the past, most of the male protagonist's savings were used to pay off the female protagonist's debts, and the female protagonist was emptied out early, so the money in the hands of the two of them was limited.
Even if we can barely open the store, what will happen to the male protagonist’s medical expenses?
The male protagonist knows that once he tells the truth, the female protagonist will definitely use the money on him, but he doesn’t want the female protagonist’s wish to fail. At the same time, his disease may not be cured. If not, the talent will be lost.
.
Moreover, the money was not enough for medical treatment. He did not want the heroine, who had finally got out of debt, to fall into the abyss again because of him.
He was worried about the heroine and thought that even if he died, he would still be able to give her a place to live, let alone drag her down.
However, the male protagonist is not unprepared. He is going to find his boss. The boss wanted to get him to open a black casino before. He knows that this is illegal and he doesn't want to get involved, so he doesn't care much now.
If successful, the heroine's snack bar will not be a problem, and he will also have medical expenses.
Under the boss's deception, the male protagonist invested all his savings in the bank, including the female protagonist's savings.
Seeing this, many viewers probably guessed the ending. As expected, this is a game.
On this day, the female protagonist made an appointment with the landlord and was waiting for the male protagonist to come over and pay the rent. On the other side, the black casino where the male protagonist participated went smoothly at first, but suddenly a group of masked men in black came to rob her.
money.
It was originally a gang fight, no one dared to call the police, and everyone ran away in confusion. Only the male protagonist did not want his money to be taken away, so he fought desperately with this group of black-clothed and masked men.
But unfortunately he was outnumbered. The male protagonist was beaten up and all his money was robbed. Just when he was about to faint, the male protagonist gritted his teeth and tore off the mask of a man in black who had been avoiding him, only to find that it was his younger brother Huang Bo!
Looking at the frightened and apologetic face, the male protagonist instantly understood that he had been tricked by his boss. He was hurt and angry and fainted.
The heroine waited for a day, but she still didn't see the hero come back. No matter how hard she tried to keep her smile, the landlord who had been waiting for a day also left in anger.
The heroine, who was filled with anger, searched everywhere, and finally found the badly beaten hero in a restaurant where the two of them frequented.
The heroine, who was already suffocating, thought who the hero was fighting with, so she couldn't help but quarreled. However, all the savings on the hero's side were gone, and she felt regretful, guilty, and desperate.
heroine.
After the heroine left, the drunken and angry hero had a fight with a few hooligans who made love to the heroine. As a result, he was sentenced to two years for picking quarrels and provoking trouble. During this period, no matter how the police asked about his family, he said nothing.
Fat, he was ready to die in prison.
However, as his condition continued to worsen, even if the prison provided some treatment, it had little effect. After a year and a half in prison, the male protagonist was almost waiting to die.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Considering that he was not a serious felon and out of humanitarian reasons, the prison granted him medical parole so that he could see his family in his last days.
After being released from prison, the male protagonist inquired around and found the whereabouts of the female protagonist. He wanted to give something away and leave, but unexpectedly ran into the female protagonist.
And because the male protagonist remained silent while in prison, many people in the outside world didn't even know that he was in prison.
In the eyes of the female protagonist, the male protagonist is a scumbag who deceived her feelings, took away all his money to gamble, lost everything, and then disappeared for a year and a half.
Naturally, this reunion was not a good one, and the male protagonist didn't care, put down the gift, lowered his head and left.
With nowhere to go, he returned to his father's house with whom he had no relationship. Although his father had nothing nice to say about him, he still took him in silently.
The male protagonist became ill and vomited blood crazily in the bathroom, but he held it back because he didn't want to be a burden to anyone.
For him, leaving quietly without causing sadness or pain to others is the best ending.
But before that, the male protagonist decided to get back the money his boss had defrauded him from back then, to give the female protagonist some compensation, and to give his father some protection.
He found his younger brother Huang Bo and asked him about the whereabouts of his boss. Huang Bo was unwilling to tell, but the male protagonist told his own experience and talked about the brotherly love back then.
Huang Bo was already guilty. After learning about this, he was filled with regrets and wanted to go to the boss with the male protagonist, but was stopped by the male protagonist and went alone.
More than a year later, the boss at that time made a lot of money by making a lot of money, so he successfully transformed and became the boss of a decoration company.
The male protagonist came up and asked for money, but the boss didn't care about him. He couldn't say anything nice, so the male protagonist could only take the wrong approach.
He smashed up the boss's office, poured gasoline on it, and threatened to die together if he didn't pay back the money. However, the boss was a gangster and he was not a soft persimmon, so he fought hard with the male protagonist.
The male protagonist was not afraid of death, but he was worried about the female protagonist and his old father, so he took out his medical certificate, burst into tears, and knelt down to beg the boss to pay back the money.
And looking at the proud and unruly Brother Ren, who is now like a broken-backed dog, kneeling and crying, no one looks down on him. Everyone understands that he is not a coward, but can no longer afford to gamble.
Seeing Jiang Yan's performance on the screen, crying and begging like a dog, all the audience felt sad, and some moved audience members even started wiping away tears.
At this moment, everyone forgot about the big star Jiang Yan, but remembered the ill-fated man Jiang Ren.
Man, why are you so miserable!
Aqiang did not cry, but his eyes were slightly red. Azhen, like many people in the theater, had already begun to cry. She kept wiping away her tears with tissue paper, and at the same time thinking about how hard it is to watch the movie so far.
It's not a healing movie like what is said online...
This thought didn't last long, and was quickly pulled back by the plot of the movie.
Faced with the male protagonist's pleading, the boss played by Jiang Wen may be motivated by his previous friendship, or purely out of sympathy, or he may be afraid that the male protagonist who has reached a dead end will really risk his life. In short, his humanity finally shines.
, return the black male protagonist’s money double.
After getting the money, the male protagonist divided it into two parts and gave one of them to the female protagonist first.
But the heroine, who still hates him in her heart, doesn't want it at all, so the hero can only forcefully force it into her. The heroine struggles, and the hero suddenly becomes ill while pushing. In order to prevent the heroine from seeing the strange look on his face as he endures the pain,
He simply hugged her.
The female protagonist couldn't help but shed tears and kept beating the male protagonist with her hands. It was not a struggle, but more like venting all the pain of two years and resenting the male protagonist for "leaving without saying goodbye" before.
The male protagonist just hugged the female protagonist tightly, enduring physical and psychological pain and letting her beat and scold her.
This scene once again made the audience in the theater shed tears.
This man is really miserable!
In the next scene, the male protagonist comes home and his father scolds him, but immediately gets up and goes to the kitchen to heat up food for him.
His father is a bus driver. He is getting older and is about to retire. Fortunately, he still has his brother at home, so there will be no one to take care of him until the end of his life. This makes the male protagonist a little relieved.
In the evening, despite his father's obstruction, the male protagonist washed and massaged his father's feet. This rare act of intimacy made the relationship between the father and son, who were actually a bit cold, a bit awkward, but also brought a rare touch of family warmth.
The male protagonist squeezed his father's legs, pretending that nothing happened, and reminded his father: "Don't forget in the future, today I will squeeze your legs and wash your feet. Don't say I'm unfilial later."
"If you are really filial, I will marry you as a daughter-in-law."
After his father went to bed, the hero couldn't help but shed tears. He wiped them away and put the bankbook on the mezzanine of the cabinet in his father's room. Before leaving the house, he knelt down and kowtowed gently to his father on the bed.
This scene is speechless, but the audience all knows that the male protagonist is saying in his heart that his son is unfilial and will repay the kindness of raising him in the next life.
A few days later, it was the death anniversary of the heroine's father. The hero came to the heroine's house and expressed that he wanted to burn incense for the old man.
The heroine remembered that her father's funeral was arranged by the hero, so she stepped aside silently. The hero offered incense and paid homage, mentally apologizing to the deceased for breaking his original promise and not taking good care of the heroine.
After the worship, the male protagonist looked at the cold-faced female protagonist sitting next to her. The male protagonist felt a little depressed. He was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly saw a photo frame on the wall next to him, which expressed the "love agreement" between the two of them.
"The colored strokes of ".
Thinking about the fact that the heroine has been single for the past year and a half and still has the tokens from back then, the hero understands that the heroine still has him in her heart.
This discovery made the male protagonist happy and a little worried. He opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and finally left without saying a word.
The next day, the hero was about to leave the city and die quietly. On the bus, he saw the heroine's best friend dragging the heroine with a man in a small restaurant. It seemed like they were introducing a blind date.
The male protagonist got out of the car and stood watching quietly from a distance, with a smile on his face but tears in his eyes.
Laughing is seeing the woman you love find her destiny.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I cry because this destination is not mine, so I can only wish you happiness silently.
Wiping away his tears, the male protagonist turned around and left resolutely, falling to the ground as soon as his vision went dark.
When he woke up again, he was already lying in the hospital. When he asked the nurse, he learned that it was the heroine who sent him.
On the other side, the heroine found her younger brother Huang Bo and learned everything. All the unreasonable things in the hero's body were explained, and the heroine ran frantically to the hospital.
After learning that the heroine saved him, the hero knew that everything was going to be revealed. In order not to implicate the heroine, he packed his things and was about to leave, but he happened to run into the heroine in the back alley.
In the dark alley, two street lamps emitted orange light, about five meters apart. They didn't speak or hug each other. They just looked at each other silently, and then burst into tears.
This nearly two-minute crying scene did not have any BGM rendering or any superb camera technology.
It's just two actors facing each other, crying regardless of everything and their image.
In the original movie, this is also the moment when Huang Zhengmin and the heroine become gods.
And now, even in Jiang Yan's own opinion, the performances of Jiang Yan and Yan Danchen are no less than the original version.
And Jiang Yan thinks so, which brings an even more shocking feeling to the audience in front of the big screen and the film critics.
The two of them just looked at each other and cried, looking at each other speechlessly, with only a thousand lines of tears.
It was such a straightforward crying scene, and its rendering was so powerful that everyone in the audience shed tears.
And this kind of tear-inducing is increasing layer by layer.
From the male protagonist going to the female protagonist to pay back the money, giving vent to a hug, to the male protagonist paying his final filial piety to his father, kowtow and apologizing, to the male protagonist going to the female protagonist to say goodbye, knowing that the female protagonist still has him in her heart, he is happy but does not dare to respond.
, then when we witnessed the female protagonist on a blind date, the male protagonist left crying and laughing, and finally when we are now looking at each other without words and can only shed a thousand tears, in the entire theater, except for a small number of people who have no empathy or are relatively strong, most of the rest of the audience have already shed tears.
collapse.
Aqiang is one of them, who is like a tree. He could hold back the previous scenes, but now the scene where the male and female protagonists look at each other and cry is so destructive that he can no longer maintain the image of a gentleman and bursts into tears.
Not to mention Azhen next to him, her tears never stopped from the moment the male protagonist begged the boss to pay back the money.
A whole pack of tissues was used up, but it still didn't stop her emotions. She cried uncontrollably as the movie unfolded, so she simply picked up Aqiang's hand next to her and used it as a tissue to wipe her face.
Little did they know, it was this natural movement that caused their hands to never separate again...
The plot after that is still very sad.
The female protagonist takes care of the seriously ill male protagonist. Under the sweet interaction, there is regret and despair that cannot be ignored. When the male protagonist is dying, the female protagonist holds his hand and tells and relives the story of how they just met.
His mouth was full of disgust, but his eyes were full of tenderness. The male protagonist, who was already extremely weak, tried his best to open his eyes and took one last look at the heroine. The corner of his mouth trembled slightly upward, but the heroine only waited for a "ding" sound.
Long sound.
The wavy lines on the instrument turned into a straight line, and the heroine took the hero's hand and held it on her face, crying bitterly.
At the funeral, the heroine took care of the male protagonist's affairs as his wife. The hero's father looked at the photo of his son in the mourning hall and looked at the heroine.
The camera flashes back to show the male protagonist's father playing with clothes hanging out on the balcony while the male protagonist eats.
"Dad, actually I almost got married, but I screwed up. Maybe I was born to be a bad person... She is a salesperson from Qiandian Street Mobile. She is good-looking, but her temper doesn't look very good.
But she is actually a gentle person. She watched her father leave. I don’t want to tell her about my illness anymore...I am just a passerby to her and I have to leave soon, but I still don’t worry about her father.
She is gone. Who will protect her when I am not here... Dad, she is the only woman I love in my life. Wait..., when I leave, please help take care of her... I'm sorry, Dad..."
In this episode, Jiang Yan once again contributed his superb acting skills. He put food into his mouth in a very life-like manner and talked while eating. At first, he seemed calm, but as his emotions progressed, Jiang Yan's chin...
The lips, tears, etc. gradually became uncontrollable, and in the end, I was incoherent and broke down in tears.
That face that looks young but has experienced many vicissitudes of life shows regret, apology, helplessness, reluctance, and even physical emotion about fate.
This has also made countless film critics across the country lament that not many people can stop Jiang Yan from becoming the best actor this time...
The flashback scene caused another burst of tears in the theater, and the last scene of the movie ended with the heroine crying bitterly on the bus of the hero's father after getting off the night shift.
As the closing credits rolled, the audience, immersed in the sad atmosphere of the movie, could not get up for a long time.
"Azhen, this movie is so touching."
Strictly speaking, Aqiang doesn't really like this kind of movie. It's good to watch, and it's good to cry, but it's not good to watch too many of these movies. He still likes them to be more festive.
But looking at Azhen who was still leaning on his shoulder and feeling her right shoulder that was already soaked through, he didn't know whether to continue empathizing with the sadness or secretly being happy, so he could only say something like this to ease his mood.
Fortunately, Azhen is not stupid. She naturally held Aqiang's hand and said, "We will be happier than in the movie, right?"
At this moment, Azhen's words illuminated Lin Xiaoqiang's entire life like a ray of light.
Aqiang couldn't help but give Jiang Yan a thumbs up for the first time!
This movie is awesome!
So he nodded sharply at A Zhen:
"Well! I won't die!"
Phew~
A-Zhen almost laughed out loud with snot in her nose...
(I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow, so the update will be unstable. Also, it was originally planned to be completed years ago, but now it seems it will take about half a month. Please bear with it.)
