As soon as the news that the second part of 'Wasteland' was to be released was announced, it caused a global sensation. Although everyone knew that this would be a series of movies, no one thought that the second part would come so soon! For this film, it takes an unusual path.
As a movie, major media rushed to report it immediately, and invited various experts to comment on it.
In order to grab news, the United States directly contacted many well-known Hollywood film industry figures, hoping to let the audience know more about the movie from a serious perspective. But as soon as the live TV broadcast came on, the situation became less serious.
The host first asked his own question: "Why can a small, unknown film company make such a good movie? This seems to be unreasonable."
A well-known film critic sat in his home for an interview. He gave a shocking point of view in a roaring tone at the beginning, "Who said this is an unknown small film company? Before we discuss the movie, it is best to understand it."
Looking at the strength of this film company, it is completely comparable to the eight major Hollywood film companies."
Although this view was surprising, it was immediately recognized by other filmmakers. The host had to ask, "Mr. Hardmon, why did you come to such a conclusion? You must know that we failed to discover that this film company has too many
Information."
"The investment in shooting a movie like 'Wasteland 1' will not be less than 300 million US dollars. Everyone who watches the movie feels that this is a real movie. The reason is that there are too many details in the movie and the use of special effects.
Lenses, this is a total waste of money!
For example, for the gun battle scene at the General Grant Memorial Hall, I specifically asked the staff at the Memorial Hall. They said that no one came to film it on site, because such a serious memorial cannot be vandalized casually, not even climbed.
Not to mention a shootout allowed.
However, the staff of the "Memorial Hall" who had watched the movie were extremely surprised, because they did see an identical "Memorial Hall" in the movie, and the scene was absolutely realistic. It made people feel that this was what happened in the "Memorial Hall".
The curator of the 'Memorial Hall' even hurried back to the museum to check it out after watching the movie. He was shocked by the realistic visual effects in the movie. This extremely serious shooting method gave people a huge viewing enjoyment, but this
Behind it is a lot of money invested.
After investing hundreds of millions of dollars, this film company actually sent the film to theaters for free. This extravagant act is really shocking. No film company boss I know would do such a thing.
.After the success of 'Wasteland 1', who would refuse 'Wasteland 2', which was built with the same huge investment?"
After the film critic gave a positive judgment in a roaring tone, another well-known Hollywood director made an in-depth evaluation of the protagonist 'Victor Hugo', "I bet he will not reveal his identity, because the mystery is him
largest capital.
Now, half of Victor Hugo's net worth is due to his mystery, which is his greatest aura. If he is exposed, his net worth will definitely drop by half. But I must admit that this kind of "mystery" attracts everyone.
human appetite.
When I was promoting my movie, all major media around the world were rushing to report on 'Wasteland 2'; but when the Hollywood stars in my movie appeared everywhere, the audience was excited about 'Victor'.
.fascinated by Hugo'.
Remember, this movie didn't cost a penny to advertise. But it got unprecedented publicity, and everyone around the world was talking about it. Marketing this movie was a risk, but there's no doubt it came up
Whoever came up with this idea is a genius!”
The host nodded repeatedly to this, and at this time, a TV viewer called into the studio, and a hoarse voice asked the guest on the line: "I want to declare that I like this movie very much. I have watched it for more than ten years.
all over.
But what makes me very uncomfortable is that the movie takes place in the United States, and the main actors are all white. Why use a yellow-skinned monkey as the protagonist? I have always wanted to find the filming company of this movie and ask them to re-release a movie with a white protagonist.
version, otherwise I would send them bullets."
Regarding the racist remarks, the host was about to dismiss them casually, but a guest producer asked for an answer, "Hey, man on the other end of the phone. Do you know how much money this movie has made around the world?"
"
"The report says it's $1.5 billion. Damn it, does that have anything to do with a yellow-skinned monkey being the main character?"
"It's very relevant. The 'yellow-skinned monkey' in your mouth may be Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. Do you know how much movie box office these three countries have created? More than 500 million US dollars, and the United States
The local population is only 450 million.
Among them, China's box office in particular reached 330 million U.S. dollars. And the actor who plays "Victor Hugo" is probably Chinese. You must understand that no one will have trouble with money. The Chinese market is now very dynamic.
market.
Even if the protagonist of this movie is a devil, some people are chasing it now. Facts have proved that choosing an Asian face as the protagonist has achieved unpredictable success. We have white movie stars, we have black movie stars, and now there is nothing wrong with multiple yellow movie stars.
things to accept.
White women in the United States are willing to marry blacks, Indians, and Latinos. Why can't they like a Chinese?
Did you know that we just conducted a survey not long ago and found that it is very popular to find a Chinese boyfriend in American universities. In the past, Chinese people felt silent, low-key, and reserved, but this movie overturns this concept.
In the movie, 'Victor Hugo' erupts like a volcano in silence, which is extremely shocking to people. American girls are now beginning to appreciate this kind of low-key and unassuming boyfriend who can surprise themselves. I think you
We should also adapt to this change.”
Faced with the facts and data, the troublemaker could only retreat sadly. The host continued to ask the guests to give their evaluation of the second "Wasteland".
The film critic said: "I have already seen the sample film, and it is even better than the first one. I must say that the director of this film must be praised for his performance. His ability to control the rhythm is unparalleled."
The great director smiled and said: "I have only seen the trailer, but it has already given me a lot of expectations. The story is edited very well and is as cool as ever. However, I would rather praise the leading actor, Victor Rain, than the director.
Guo', I really hope to work with him one day, I think he is born to be an actor."
Compared with the praises of the first two, the producer sighed and complained: "Actually, I have to complain. Due to the release of 'Wasteland 2', the entire film market is now in chaos.
I have three movies that have to be rescheduled for release. No one wants to compete head-on with 'Wasteland 2', which has no chance of winning. Now I can only hope that 'Wasteland 3' won't be released so soon.
Otherwise I will be unemployed."
Although it is a joke, it also shows that 'Wasteland 2' has brought great pressure to the film market. At the end, the host said to the audience: "Okay, dear viewers, 'Wasteland 2' will be released globally starting tomorrow.
Let's hope it will give us a bigger surprise when it is released! I must tell you that I have already booked movie tickets."
