After buffering is completed, the video starts playing...
The video was dark, with only subtitles, and a pure New York accent: "Hua Qiang. Nicholas is sentenced to twenty-five years in prison and is being held in the Lompoc Maximum Security Prison without the possibility of early parole..."
If it weren't for the subtitles, Zhang Qiang and his wife might not be able to understand these few English sentences for a while.
What comes into view is a prisoner with an extremely strong build, bald head, and wearing a prison uniform...
The two recognized each other quickly: "It's Yang Gang!! His name in the movie is Huaqiang Nicholas..."
Then a group of American prisoners, with some police officers in the middle, boarded a bus, and Hua Qiang was among this group of prisoners...
The lens changed, and a huge bus was traveling on a remote and deserted road. On the bus, there was a whole bus of prisoners wearing prison uniforms. It was obviously that this bus was preparing to transport these prisoners to the Lompoc High Security Guard.
prison.
"The protagonist Huaqiang is a prisoner. Is he trying to rob a prison here?" Just as they were thinking, a roar that shook their eardrums came from the speakers. Pure, natural, and full of impact, their minds went blank.
Following this sound, three sports cars appeared in the video, rushing forward at extremely fast speeds to catch up with the bus.
"Coming!!" Zhang Qiang and his wife didn't even dare to breathe at this moment, for fear of missing the shot.
Just as they expected, two of the sports cars started to accelerate and rushed to the front of the bus...
One of the sports cars driven by a Chinese beauty made a beautiful drift and turned around, then rushed straight towards the bus.
The bus driver quickly turned the steering wheel to change lanes and kept calling for emergency help!!
Another sports car driven by a foreigner immediately followed the bus, and used a beautiful drift to perfectly get stuck on the front left wheel of the bus when the bus turned the right steering wheel and the body shifted.
"Boom!!!"
The bus instantly flew into the air to the left and passed over the sports car...
"Boom!!!" It hit the road surface with a sound and kept rolling. Iron sheets and glass fragments continued to scatter, and finally rolled out more than ten meters away and turned into a pile of scrap metal...
"Oh my God, am I dreaming?" The couple pinched each other's thighs stupidly. They really couldn't believe that there would be such a wonderful scene.
The next few dozen seconds were all about the car accident being reported by various television stations in the United States...
"The car accident in the Lompoc prison car was a tragic scene after a rampant prison escape during the day. There were 26 felons in the car. All of them have been brought to justice, except for Huaqiang Nicholas..."
"The police have determined that this was a well-planned accident. It did not result in any casualties..."
"Today, the United States is destined to be disturbed by these three fugitives..."
After watching the entire trailer, the two looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes!
"marvelous!!!"
They were not the only ones exclaiming. At this time, hundreds of thousands of movie fans, filmmakers, and media reporters across China had watched the trailer. They were shocked and shocked!!
"Although the trailer is only two minutes long, I think it is really awesome!!"
"Sure enough, it was a big deal. I smashed a bus. Why do I feel so happy?"
"Three expensive sports cars, I really love them!!"
The next day, major entertainment newspapers reported on last night's "Fast and Furious" trailer.
"The trailer made my heart beat faster when I watched it, especially the scene where the bus was knocked off its head. It made my blood boil! In one word - awesome!!!"
"Wang Shang's eyes are still sharp. When everyone's eyes are only focused on racing and love, Wang Shang has already set his sights on a bigger market - prison robbery, escape, police and robbers. And Wang Shang will also play one of the leading roles.
By replacing him with an American actor and assigning the prisoner a Chinese identity, it is obviously easier to win the favor of the North American audience. Wang Shang is already ahead of most people in his research on Hollywood!"
"Compared with the trailer of "The Fast and the Furious", all racing movies on the market are scum. The three luxury sports cars are eye-catching, and the awesome drifting technology makes people excited. More importantly, the title alone is a smash.
I bought a bus worth more than 1 million. Is there anything more generous than this? I’m afraid it’s only the bombing plane in "Death Comes 1"!"
"Competition? Drifting? That's what Wang Shang left behind. Now Wang Shang directly relies on his driving skills to rob the prison!!"
"Whether it's creativity, grandeur or its relevance to Hollywood, "The Fast and the Furious" can outshine "The Legend of Cars". When I originally watched "The Legend of Cars", I thought it was already awesome, but now I watch "The Legend of Cars".
The trailer of "The Fast and the Furious". "The Legend of Cars" is simply disappointing! Now I don't want to watch it a second time!!"
"Wang Shang declared on his blog that this opening sequence is just an appetizer, and there is much more to the main meal. It is guaranteed to make the audience happy! It will be so high!!"
The media all made a U-turn and began to express their lofty admiration for "Fast and Furious", and also tried their best to belittle "Car Gods". They seemed to have forgotten that just some time ago, they continued to praise "Car Gods"
And binge-watched "The Fast and the Furious".
King fans were naturally overjoyed when they saw these entertainment trends, feeling as if they had won the battle.
Countless movie fans thought it was good because there were no good movies to compare with it. Now, as soon as the trailer for "The Fast and the Furious" came out, they immediately thought it was vulgar...
"I don't want to watch it a second time..."
On MTime, the rating of "The Legend of Car God" dropped from 9.0 to 8.0 in less than a day, and it continues to decline.
Sometimes it’s really just a matter of comparison shopping...
At this time, Southeast Film and Television Group faced many negative attacks, but still refused to give up: "What can the trailer show? And "The Legend of Car God" has not yet entered North America for final verification! What if it becomes popular?"
Indeed, as Southeast Film and Television Group said - what if it becomes popular?
Results are the best way to test success, so Southeast Film and Television Group is eagerly looking forward to the success of "The Legend of Cars" in North America, and then slaps these unprincipled media and fans of "Fast and Furious" in the face
, and more importantly, I hope to slap that extremely arrogant young man Wang Shang on the face!!
However, they were also worried. When this movie was originally produced, they did not expect it to achieve such an achievement, so it did not cater to Hollywood tastes at all.
On July 8, "The Legend of Car God" officially landed in the North American film market.
On the first day of release, the racing theme really attracted a group of young people: "Racing movie? It's a bit fresh..."
After they went in to watch with curiosity, first they thought the dubbing was OK, second they thought the car was just average, third they thought the plot was average, and fourth... they couldn't understand it at all...
Soon the rating on IMDB, the largest movie database, came out, 6.5, and it kept falling. Some people thought it was good, but more people found it baffling, and many didn't understand it.
There are also several racing movies in Hollywood, so "The Legend of Cars", which fell into the cliché and trivial category, was not very attractive. In less than a few days, it was "lost to everyone" and the box office was just as Wang Shang predicted.
dismal.
Major North American movie theaters have also begun to release it, and there are still many movies hitting the summer schedule (late May to September 4) waiting to be released, so naturally this movie will not waste cinema screens.
When the news spread back to China, the unscrupulous media immediately gloated over the misfortune.
""The Legend of Car God" encountered Waterloo in Hollywood..."
""The Legend of Car God" is completely acclimatized..."
"Ten days of release, the box office is less than 300 million, not even enough to share the promotional expenses..."
The Southeast Film and Television Group, which was originally sharpening its knives, immediately fell from being awesome to being stupid. It no longer dares to make noises. At most, it can only squeak weakly: "At least it has achieved high box office in China, Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea."
Thanks to the Chinese community in North America, the trailer of "Fast and Furious" also began to spread in North America, conquering countless people with its shocking scenes. Then it spread more and more widely, causing countless North American fans to exclaim.
.
"What movie? Am I being dazzled? I actually saw three rare and expensive sports cars!!"
"Isn't the guy driving the car Brian from "My Love From Extraterrestrial"? He was so handsome that he hit the bus with his car's roof and successfully pushed the bus out!!"
"Awesome! This technique, this smashing of cars, makes my blood boil!!"
"This may become one of the top ten awesome prison robbery scenes in movies!!"
"Are there any other clips?" They were eager to see other movie clips, but after searching carefully, they were disappointed. The only trailer for this movie on the Internet was this.
Only then did they discover to their surprise that the movie trailer that made them so excited actually belonged to a movie shot by China!!!
"No, I thought it was a Hollywood movie? It has an authentic Hollywood flavor! That authentic American accent can't be fake at all."
"Director Wang Shang? Tianwang Studio? It seems a bit familiar..." When they checked, they found that Wang Shang was the director/screenwriter of "Death Is Coming 1", and Tianwang Studio turned out to be the "Death Is Coming"
The production company of the series.
"Producers who can produce the "Death is Coming" series of movies will not make this good movie bad." They have already started the release of "Fast and Furious".
"It's a pity that it will take at least another five months before we can see his true face..."
When Wang Shang learned that the trailer for "The Fast and the Furious" had gained popularity and fans in North America, he was stunned.
