Not surprisingly, the premiere of "Let the Bullets Fly" was held at the Olympic Sports Center in Beijing - 99% of mainland movie premieres are held in Beijing, and this is becoming more and more like this.
What is a capital city?
Fa Ge, Jiang Wen, and Ge You were all on one stage, and Fang Yi was pushed to the front and became the fourth actor.
The stars were shining brightly in the Olympic Sports Center. On that day, in addition to the main creators of the crew, there were also people from the Yinghuang family such as Big Brother Cheng, Yang Shuancheng, and Feng Dapao also came over to join in the fun.
Feng Dapao and Jiang Wen both belong to the compound, but their relationship is very strange. Currently, they are Jiang Qiang and Feng Ruo.
In his early years, Feng Dapao worked under Jiang Wen, earning 30 yuan a month. He couldn't raise the 6,000 yuan for the child's surgery, so he turned to Feng Gong, and Feng Gong was introduced to him by Jiang Wen.
Therefore, Jiang Wen was kind to Feng Dapao and had the kindness to save his life.
For example, now, when Feng Dapao comes to praise Jiang Wen, "Let the Bullets Fly" and "On a Sunny Day" both have wonderful performances by Feng Dapao.
But in Jiang Wen's movie, he is rude to Feng Dapao. Jiang Wen is quite a bastard. "Standing to make money" will always remind people of Feng Dapao in Yin Yang, when he unceremoniously humiliated Feng Dapao.
At the red carpet show, both Jiang Wen and Fa Ge brought their wives to the red carpet. They relied on the combination of husband and wife to win the page. The remaining stars relied on anti-aircraft guns.
The first person to fire anti-aircraft guns was Feng Dapao, "The box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" will definitely reach 40 to 500 million yuan, and it will always be the top box office among domestic films, second only to "Love Letter" and "Big Earthquake"."
Fang Yi followed the locals and raised his hand to his senior brother, "It will definitely surpass "Love Letter"...can it be the annual champion? I really don't know, I hope it can be so good, after all, it is also a movie that I participated in."
The third one is Ge You. This bald man is the president of the China Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Club. He rode his bike very coquettishly that night. Perhaps the cold wind made Ge You not so clear-headed. His anti-aircraft gun was the most outrageous:
"I hope "Let the Bullets Fly" hits the 5 billion mark!"
This means that the box office can reach 5 billion.
The reporter couldn't ask anymore. Everyone laughed wildly. Feng Dapao said, "How can a domestic film get 5 billion? Even if you are from Hollywood, we can't get it. 5 billion is not 500,000."
?!" He curled his lips, thinking of the 650 million box office of his "The Great Earthquake", and felt quite proud, "How many Feng Dapao are there? However, there is only one Feng Dapao in China, and he is standing here now!"
Everyone immediately started watching the movie.
The story begins with a group of bandits hijacking a train. They quickly took off the reins and changed the track. An ax got stuck on the track to form an obstacle, and the train was overturned.
Fang Yi wore glasses because of his fair skin, and looked helpless, which contributed to the contrasting jokes.
Amid laughter, Fang Yi pursed his lips.
He was not satisfied with the special effects of the scene "The train flies into the sky and falls into the water", which was very rough.
It’s understandable that the water is not done well: how to make water patterns realistic is still a problem in the special effects industry, and even "Avatar" has not completely solved it.
However, the train is not very good either:
The whistle blew out layered gray smoke, the wheels idling uniformly in the sky, and the rows of windows did not have a reflective effect. When the train hit the water, there was no "force" that it should have in the real world, it was more like
A huge blob of foam.
Obviously the special effects rendering engine itself has flaws.
Fang Yi shook his head slightly.
Jiang Wen was very proud. He didn't see his expression in the dark, but came to ask him, "How was the shooting?"
"Good."
Jiang Wen was overjoyed to receive Fang Yi's approval, "Even if you are convinced, although I didn't spend as much money as Feng Dapao's film, I also put in the effort to do the special effects. Mark fully supported me... What do you think of the special effects in "The Great Earthquake"
How is the level?"
"That's fine."
Feng Dapao also heard it and showed his big front teeth, "Fang Yi, I heard that you are going to make a new movie and you will use some special effects? You are so smart, you will definitely be no worse than us."
Fang Yi pressed his temples, veins pulsing in clusters, and said, "Thank you."
——Is there really no flaws in "Let the Bullets Fly"? In fact, there are. The whole movie shows off Jiang Wen's talent too much, with dense dialogue, a lot of information, and fast camera turns. The audience was still wondering about something in the last second.
Deep meaning, you will immediately enter a new storyline in the next second.
Feng Dapao had been Jiang Wen's grandson for many years. After he became famous, he actually got angry with Jiang Wen and said that he should restrain his talent.
From Feng Dapao's status as a commercial film director, this is equivalent to ridicule.
Without Fang Yi, it would be difficult for some people to immediately understand the metaphor behind the film when they watch it for the first time.
But this time there was Fang Yi.
The highlight of the early plot was the story of "Two Bowls of Noodles" in Jiangwu Hall. When they saw that Fang Yi knew that there were tigers in the mountains and went to the tiger mountains, some people already understood that Fang Yi was playing a pure, truthful, kind and beautiful character.
figure.
He was not only incompatible with the bandits, but also incompatible with the people of the time.
But what did Zhang Mazi say at the beginning?
"Sixth son is half of my son."
When Zhang Mazi opened fire in the robbery, the person next to him who seemed to be his successor was also Liu Zi.
This is obvious. I asked you to take over and teach you by words and deeds, but you died, so the train came back with Mr. Huang, and I no longer had anyone to rely on.
The movie continued to play. Everyone worshiped in front of Liu Zi's grave, and each one said harsh words, which confirmed once again that Liu Zi was dead.
For the next hour, there were no Liuzi, but only the story of how the bandit gang outsmarted Mr. Huang and finally released the people of Echeng. They no longer had to kneel down.
At the end of the movie, the train whined back, and Zhang Mazi looked ahead in astonishment:
His brother was discussing where to go with the dead Mr. Huang.
They said: "If you go to Shanghai, it's better to go to Pudong."
"The magic capital is Pudong, and Pudong is the magic capital."
Before he had time to think about the meaning of these words, the train quickly disappeared in front of Zhang Mazi. When he looked back in despair, he saw a gleaming white Fang Yi riding a thin horse.
Jiang Wen is here, giving a slow-motion close-up without any sound.
Zhang Mazi no longer felt so confused, but smiled with relief. At this time, the melody composed by Hisaishi Joe sounded.
The movie ends with the two figures approaching from behind.
After Jiang Wen's film was released, there was no crying scene like in "Love Letter", but judging from the audience's excited reaction, it was obvious that they still liked the film.
The leading actors stood in front of the stage and took their curtain calls repeatedly like theater actors.
The reporter asked, "Director Jiang, where do you think the real box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" will be? With all the heroes vying for success in the Lunar New Year movie, this movie has the most luxurious starring cast, but after all, it is not a genre movie that can sell money. Can you give me a movie that suits you?
The numbers you’re looking forward to?”
Jiang Wen stretched out three fingers.
Of course it can't be 30 million, it's naturally 300 million.
He said, "Our movie has three best actors, so I think everyone can contribute 100 million, which is why I wanted to invite big-name stars in the first place... I realized that the appeal of superstars is real, and it is really worth it."
That price."
"But, "The Orphan of Zhao" and "If You Are the One 2" also have big-name stars and big-name directors."
Jiang Wen looked at Fang Yi, who was holding the flower, and joked, "We control the variable method. Brother Ge You is included in the three movies, which means they cancel each other out, but we still have Fa Ge and Fang Yi."
Fa Ge has been a box-office poison for several years. The year before last, Fa Ge starred in a movie called "Confucius" and was offered an extra NT$50 million, but the film's final box office was NT$90 million. He took out the accounts and the International Film Development Fund.
The remaining money can't even pay Fa Ge's salary alone.
Therefore, the reporter directly ignored Fa Ge, "Then let's look at Fang Yi. After all, he only had a movie with a box office of 1.2 billion in Asia a few months ago. He is the actor with the strongest appeal in recent times."
Jiang Wen really thought so in his heart. He was too lazy to lie and smiled at the reporter.
