When the calendar on the wall turns to December 23rd, "Dance Floor" produced by Fantasy Pictures, directed by Yi Feiyang, and starring Michael Jackson will officially premiere tonight...
Many filmmakers have different opinions on this highly anticipated musical.
Some people say that this play may create new miracles.
Some people say that this time China's trade deal may end in Waterloo.
Some people say that God will not only love one person.
In short, various discussions and speculations have emerged one after another; people all over Los Angeles and all over North America have focused their attention on the premiere of this drama. In this regard, many entertainment media have focused their cameras on PK with Yi Feiyang
The Wachowski brothers.
During this period, the box office success of "The Matrix 2" made the white brothers very high-spirited and proud. Many newspapers and magazines praised them as "unparalleled science fiction geniuses", "super rising stars in the director world", and "rare talents in Hollywood".
Talented brothers" and so on, there are all kinds of praises that cannot be expressed in words.
Facing this pair of talented brothers with extraordinary momentum and rapid rise to the top, the media reporter asked them: "What do you think of this musical film premiered tonight by China Yi?"
The eldest of the Wachowski brothers pretended not to hear clearly, "Hey, man, what did you say? Musical? Are you mistaken? Who would watch such a childish movie now? Can you just invite anyone who can dance?
If a big star makes a movie about twerking and dancing, it is called a blockbuster, so the Hollywood film industry has failed too much!"
Disdain, contempt, and ridicule of musicals.
Yes, who in Hollywood will make musicals or watch musicals now? Those were only popular in the 1920s and 1930s, and are old-fashioned things hidden in the dust of history. Now China can easily take away such films.
Come out for everyone to watch, and compete with the Wachowski brothers' science fiction blockbuster. Isn't that humiliating yourself?
"However, the promotion of "Dance Floor" is very good, the cast is also very attractive, and their pre-sale box office has exceeded 10 million. What do you think of this?" The reporter was very tricky.
Asked by the ground.
At this time, the second of the Wachowski brothers replied: "There used to be a very good fried chicken restaurant near our hometown town. One day, a new Chinese fried chicken restaurant opened across the street. They advertised it well.
It was very impressive. They said how delicious their fried chicken was, how big the portion was, and how wonderful the taste was. Also, they said they had famous superstars advertising for them... so many small town residents flocked there in admiration.
With a happy mood, I hope to have a good meal of fried chicken legs. But what happens, do you know the result?" He paused deliberately, "The result is that the chicken legs in this fried chicken restaurant are rubbish! Not only is the price very expensive,
, the color, smell and taste are even worse! Pity the residents who ordered fried chicken legs. They want to return but can’t. They want to eat but can’t. Do you think they are pitiful?”
Faced with such an "imaginative" story, the reporter stopped talking nonsense and wrote directly in his notebook: "The Wachowski brothers underestimate China Yi, how can Chinese chicken legs resist American fried chicken?!"
…
In fact, many major Hollywood film companies do not underestimate the enemy like the Wachowski brothers. They have seen the pressure brought by Fantasy Pictures, especially Yi Feiyang's three-point promotion method, which has muddied the entire Christmas season. If
If I had to describe the feelings of these movie tycoons, it would be an undercurrent!
In Hollywood, when a new movie is released, many guests are often invited to walk on the red carpet to show the strength of their company and the popularity of the movie.
For example, the Wachowski brothers' "The Matrix 2" invited Hollywood celebrities from the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to support them, so much so that after the movie was released, people were still talking about the premiere for three days.
grand occasion.
Other major film companies, such as Universal, Columbia, MGM, Fox and Sony, have also relied on their own film companies' golden names and hard power to invite people from all walks of life to help.
In comparison, Fantasy Pictures, which was established just over a year ago, is the weakest, and director Yi Feiyang’s contacts are not very extensive, so many people are waiting to see the silent scene on the red carpet at the premiere in the evening. I am always lucky to see this.
How did the Chinese director become unlucky?
Yi Feiyang didn't know what these guys were thinking and had no time to pay attention to them because he was busy attending tonight's premiere.
It was a not too cold afternoon in Los Angeles. The outside of the theater of Superstar Cinema owned by Fantasy Pictures had long been covered with red carpets, and countless movie fans and media reporters had already crowded the originally spacious theater door.
This is the premiere of "The Dance".
Time passed little by little, but the originally beautiful red carpet was still deserted. Not a single star arrived or appeared. Compared with the periphery of the red carpet, there were more and more spectators and reporters waiting to watch the excitement.
, everyone was chattering, guessing, and discussing.
"Hey man, did you think Mike would show up tonight?"
"He is the leading actor, so he should be able to do it."
"But why is there no one there now?"
"Oh, there's nothing I can do about it, discount movie companies don't seem to have enough confidence!"
…
"Tom, my back hurts from standing, why don't we go over there and take a rest?"
"That's fine, man, there's not even a ghost here anyway! Damn it, is this still a premiere?"
Just when everyone was bored and felt that this premiere was not worthy of the name, look at the star of the bird, there was only a cold wind blowing, making the crotch feel chilly.
Time gradually passed again, and night was coming.
Finally, the first superstar appeared on the red carpet.
Many people believe that the order of walking on the red carpet is generally that the less famous ones go first, open the show, invest and ask for advice, make suggestions, and then the big-name celebrities make the final appearance. In fact, this is also the usual order and habit of Hollywood people walking the red carpet.
But this time it was different. When the yawning and tired audience and reporters turned their heads inadvertently, a superstar appeared, and he was--Michael Jackson!
That's right, it's him!
That’s our King of Pop, Michael Jackson!
I saw him wearing a bright red suit and tie on this cold day. He first appeared on the red carpet in high spirits. In his arms, he also held his one-year-old little princess Paris, who was beautifully dressed.
The little red Chinese-style cotton-padded jacket looked particularly warm nestled in my father's arms.
"Mike? Am I not dazzled? It's Michael Jackson who appears!"
"Oh my God, I'm going to faint. Mike shows up first!"
"It's amazing, it's amazing, oh, I love you, Mike!"
…
The audience members who suddenly woke up and found out that the first star to appear on the red carpet was the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, couldn't help but exclaimed and shouted.
Crazy, all crazy!
The scene instantly got out of control!
Michael Jackson's unconventional appearance disrupted everyone's minds. It was like a depth charge being dropped into a calm lake. In an instant, the whole scene tumbled and boiled.
Besides, it didn’t matter that Mike showed up on his own, but he still held his little princess Paris in his arms. You know, since Paris was born, Mike and his wife have hidden it very well from the media and the outside world.
It was so disturbing that many newspapers and magazines couldn't get the photos of little Paris that they requested at high prices, but now... this is the first time for everyone to see this rumored little princess. Do you think they can't be excited?!
"Hi, Mike, is this your baby daughter Paris according to the rumors?" As soon as Mike walked onto the red carpet, he was greeted by countless snipers.
Facing the media's questions, Mike smiled and tightened the hand holding his beloved daughter, fearing that the media's flashbulbs would scare his good daughter, but little Paris seemed to like the atmosphere very much, and she even smiled with her baby teeth exposed.
"Yes, she is my baby, little Paris." Mike then said.
After hearing Mike's answer, the media reporters completely implemented the news this time.
"So, Mike, what do you think of this musical? After all, it's your first time starring in it, isn't it?"
“I think it’s great!”
"What about Director Yi? What do you think of him?"
"It's great too!" Mike said, "I learned a lot from him when we were filming. Yes, he is a very good director!"
"But I heard that he likes to lose his temper during filming and is called a tyrant among directors. Is that true?"
Mike nodded noncommittally, and before he could say anything, the reporter asked: "When the trailer was released, China Yi once said on his blog that he and you had conflicts while filming this movie, so
Can you explain the reason specifically?"
Hearing this question, Mike smiled. This is the highlight. Mike didn't mind and said directly into the microphone: "Okay, actually this is not a big deal. When I first received this role, I was very concerned about the character.
I didn't know enough about the character, so it was not very pleasant to get along with China Yi during the filming. However, I am grateful that he could wake me up at the critical moment and teach me how to act and how to complete this role, and let me know what to do.
Being a singer is not easy, and being an actor is even more difficult!"
After a pause, Mike continued: "In the end, under his guidance, I finally completed the transition from a singer to an actor. Although there were twists and turns in the middle, I succeeded in the end... So I am very grateful to him, so
He said that the movie "Dance Floor" is actually a process of mutual understanding and cooperation between China Yi and I. Friends who like us can come and watch it."
"So in your opinion, how would you rate yourself as a protagonist for the first time, pass or fail?" After a brief pause, the reporter asked him another question.
"I'll give him full marks, yes, full marks!"
This time the person who answered the question was not Mike himself, but Yi Feiyang who had just gotten off the car and walked next to Mike.
