At 8 o'clock on the night of the 12th, China Film and Yinghuang held the premiere of "Twelve Zodiac Signs" as originally planned. The venue was the first "super-star" theater in China, the Chinese opera circle, and artists who had collaborated with Fang Yi
Almost all of them came to cheer, and some young writers, including Han Sanping, Zhang Chaoyang and others, made the scene very high-standard, even far exceeding that of "1942" which was released on the same day.
Even Fang Yi felt proud in his heart: after all, when his debut movie "Love Is Afterlife" was released, he couldn't even get the personal connections of the international chapter next door, but now it's completely reversed. When he was popular, he was surrounded by good people.
The so-called "super-star" theaters are China Film Group's self-proclaimed rhetoric. There is no such division, but it still has a basic standard: for example, it should have an IMAX giant screen, Dolby full sound effects, and an overall theater design... Only in this way can
All the visual effects of "Twelve Zodiac Signs" are displayed authentically.
This "super star" cinema caused a great sensation when it first opened. It was rumored that the investment in a single cinema exceeded 160 million, which was the highest in history at that time. In order to increase the reputation of the cinema, China Film also held an inauguration ceremony, inviting people to
Many celebrities walked the carpet, and the filming of the DJ-sponsored documentary "We Are Born in China" was announced here.
The director of the documentary "We Are Born in China" is Lu Chuan. Judging from the negative reviews of Lu Chuan's new film "The King's Feast" last month, this documentary may become the masterpiece of Lu Chuan's career. It is Fang Fo who gave Lu Chuan
What an opportunity.
——Let’s talk about this theater. It was the first “super-star” theater in 10 years ago. China Film Corporation was afraid that it would lose all its money and no one would come to support it, so it made the ticket price cheaper than that of ordinary theaters... Two years ago
Later, the situation was reversed. Due to its complete equipment, it was one of the most expensive theaters in Beijing, and the demand for IMAX theater tickets exceeded supply.
The price drops and rises represent the audience's current tendency to watch movies: I am not afraid that you will get high-tech, but I am afraid that you will not join the mainstream.
Therefore, each theater chain began to increase their investment crazily and engage in an "arms race" for theater versions. By June this year, China Film Group alone had introduced 4 IMAX lines, while the cheaper Chinese giant screen had introduced 18. This "
The winner of the "arms race" is Yida. The real estate company spent US$2.6 billion to acquire 100% of the shares of AMC, the world's largest theater chain, bringing the competition to an end.
From this point of view, it seems that the domestic film industry has explored several development directions in 2012: Yida wants to "buy Hollywood" and Huayi wants to "build China's film, television, cultural and tourism industry".
Swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger; then came the pitiful republican era, and could only make a living by making some domestic blockbusters to make money.
——However! He was actually attacked by "1942"!
Fang Yi thought of this and understood why people like Guo Fan had broken their guard: I am so honest and responsible, but I can't get peace?!
Despite this, these are all things outside of the movie. Fans who came to watch the premiere of "Zodiac" couldn't wait to use up all their energy and support the movie loudly. The most popular thing on the red carpet was of course the movie crew itself, and it was Fang Fang's turn.
When Yi and others appeared on the stage, the atmosphere at the scene could not be any more lively. Fans shouted the name of the main creator over and over again:
"Fang Yi!"
"Fang Yi!"
"Fang Yi!"
There are also many people calling eldest brother Cheng, including some foreigners: "Jackie!!!"
The eldest brother Cheng's bones went numb when he heard this voice: "Our film is guaranteed to be sold, their film is guaranteed to be sold, who said that? I, I said it!"
He added: "Albert (Yang Shoucheng) is right, you and I are two generations of box office kings, so we should join forces... I was lucky enough to listen to his advice to work together, but now I'm scared when I think about it, what if we don't cooperate...
"The eldest brother Cheng deliberately stopped in the middle of the red carpet and waved. He listened carefully to the shouts of "Fang Yi" below. After a few seconds, he nodded and said: "Even if you don't show up in public for half a year, you are still loved by others. This is considered popular!"
Fang Yi was half truthful and half modest: "It's not as popular as my eldest brother at that time."
The eldest brother Cheng was obviously very impressed by these words. He was so excited that he slapped Fang Yi on the shoulder. Later in an interview with Hong Kong media, he said: "You ask Hugo if he is the successor? I think he is qualified enough. Don't talk about succession again!"
"This is the movie, we will see the results tonight."
"Where did you hear the rumors that we don't get along? He and I have never had any conflicts. We will always be brothers!"
"Hua Yi? Hua Yi and I don't want to have anything to do with each other anymore. Listen, we won't be brothers for a day!"
The eldest brother has a very good reputation, to an absurd degree - he once said that he spends tens of millions a year to treat "good brothers" from all over the world to eat, drink and have fun. Prince Long recalled, "As long as I can remember, almost every meal
"I have many friends with him" "I rarely eat with him"...
This is a compliment. He talks about loyalty, but on the other hand, he is extremely controlling and egotistical.
For example, when he made news about his "illegitimate daughter", he believed that the "illegitimate daughter" was born without his permission, so he would not recognize her for the rest of his life and would not pay a penny.
Okay, so far it seems to make sense, but knowing that he has made "a mistake that all men in the world make", and faced with possible legitimate questioning calls, the eldest brother chooses "As long as she scolds me, I will get divorced!"
"
But the first wife was just the opposite. She and her eldest brother Cheng shared the ups and downs, so the eldest brother Cheng began to distribute the property and equity to his wife. On this day, more than 30 years had passed since the two had a secret marriage and had a child.
Have you ever seen a billionaire who would rather lose money than have a bunch of subordinates to support him and give orders every day?
——For such a face-saving person, it would be more uncomfortable to lose face to him than to lose tens of millions.
Big Brother Cheng has been making a lot of noise here, and Fang Yi also accepted an interview with "Secretary Dakang", the host of the premiere. Secretary Dakang won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor the year before last for his documentary on oil workers, and when Fang Yi won the Best Actor, he was like this
Someone is the host above, he is a human artist, and from a camp perspective, he naturally belongs to Fang Yi.
Therefore, Secretary Dakang sat upright and said: "Director Fang, what do you want to say to the audience after half a year's absence? Today's occasion is a movie, and it seems to be more than just a movie. I'm afraid you feel very complicated..."
Fang Yi: "It's very complicated. I know that many movie fans come from different places and may have to save a lot of money. They can only see me this time for a long time... I don't know if they will have a second chance."
See me..."
The words were emotional, and the voices below gradually stopped. Liu Mi, who was being interviewed next to her, but actually had a split ear, couldn't help but look over.
Speaking of which, Liu Mi seems to no longer be as obsessed with succeeding as she was in the past. She is also a first-line star, but she still has the inertia to pay attention. After all, she has never seen a better man in her twenty years of life.
Fang Yi said: "Do you believe me? I don't want to disappoint my fans. It's not that I'm afraid of losing any money. It's just that I'm afraid that I'll let it down. I don't want my fans to have bad memories..."
When the movie fans heard this, their eyes turned red, and they rushed towards Fang Yi one after another, but were stopped by the security guards.
As for Liu Mi, Fang Yi was stunned for a while before she heard a reporter asking her: "Mimi, Mimi?"
"Uh, huh?"
"You seemed to be very touched by what Director Fang said just now. Is he such a person?"
Liu Mi thought about it for a while and said: "Actually, when someone says this, I think it's just for show... But Fang Yi... you know I've known him for a long time, so I don't know what Fang Yi said.
Believe it."
The reporter asked, "Do you know Director Fang very well?"
"I understand, but I don't really understand either."
"Your dress today is very beautiful and domineering. It seems to have some 'dragon' elements? Congratulations on your big step forward in the entertainment industry after this movie was released! Director Fang's girlfriend, on the other hand, did not walk on the red carpet.
, it is said that he is wearing a maroon down jacket..."
Liu Mi interrupted: "Since others are keeping a low profile, don't mention it. My clothes? Of course my clothes are very good, but they are so expensive! But today is also a very cold day. If I hadn't been promoting the movie, I wouldn't have mentioned it.
Not as good as a down jacket…”
"...And it's not mine. It has to be returned to the sponsor. I'm borrowing it. Thinking about it this way, I also want to stay backstage, wearing a warm down jacket or something... Of course, I already know that this is not the case.
