Just by looking at the trailer, you can tell that this movie is a pure Hollywood blockbuster, and Lin Jian did not shoot it in a nondescript manner.
The special effects of "First Look" are as high-quality as Lin Jian's other movies, and the armor is so cool!
But at the same time, he also had some desires and dissatisfactions.
Lin Juan is really awesome! He gave so many wonderful scenes and outlined the birth process of a playboy-like prodigal superhero. From frivolous to calm, the character is very stable.
This is a very sincere trailer, but Song Peng still feels it's a trap, and Lin Juan has laid too many hooks!
He watched the trailer again, and this time he sorted out the plot in detail. First of all, the protagonist should be in the arms business. It's no wonder that Lin Juan set the background abroad.
Then this Tony was kidnapped, and the other party asked him to study something called a Rubik's Cube.
What is a Rubik's Cube? What does it do?
Also, why is there a discus on Tony's chest? What is that discus for?
What did Tony say he must do?
What is Wang Xuexin's role?
Who is the big armored man at the end? Is it the final boss of the organization? What does this organization do? How did Tony win?
In addition to the appeals, is there also Howard's relationship with that organization?
Will this organization still be related to the superheroes in China in the future? Are there any other unexplained plots?
He can't wait to see the whole movie now.
One trailer is not enough!
He quickly forwarded the message: "Please be sure to release it as soon as possible!"
One sentence already represents everything.
…
"It turns out the third superhero is the Mechanic!"
"Ahh! That armor is so handsome! Why isn't it from China?"
"I'm finally going to fill the gap in "Captain China". I've been waiting for it for two years!"
"Hurry! Screen!"
"Highly anticipated! This superhero is really different!"
"Director Lin, I love you! Take over Hollywood!"
"..."
Lin Juan glanced at the comments. Most of them expressed expectations. A trailer established a protagonist. It seemed to reveal a lot of things, but only a little was revealed before being cut off. There were also many things buried under the water.
This also makes movie fans eager to see the feature film.
A smile appeared on his face. The fans' expectations made him very happy. It's always a joy to have his toys recognized by his friends.
Now let’s see how it performs when the movie is released.
"Xiao Juan!"
"Hey, what's wrong, Mom?"
"Come and see...this actress is pretty good..."
"..."
…
In the evening, at one o'clock in the morning China time, the official trailer of "Iron Man" was also released in the United States.
Universal has also put a lot of effort into it. The advertisements have been put on the big screen in Times Square, and huge posters are all over the cities. However, they deliberately downplayed the fact that the director is Chinese, making people think that this is launched by Universal itself.
superhero.
Universal said this superhero beats all DM's heroes.
The nature of advertising in the United States has always been like this. They are not as restrained as in China.
Big brothers in the United States also expressed their opinions.
"It's so cool, I'm looking forward to it."
"What kind of shit do you have to compete with Electro and the others?"
"This guy looks like he's been smoking too much. Is he really a superhero?"
"The trailer looks good, I'm going to go check it out."
"Steel Armor! I like this idea."
"Donnie? Has he found another chance?"
"To hell with Iron Man, I'm going to see Black Blade."
"..."
Universal conducted a street survey the next day, and the results showed that 63% of people were interested in going to the cinema to watch the movie after watching the trailer.
Although due to other factors such as work and life, the number of people who will actually go to the cinema is definitely less than this, but it also illustrates the appeal of this movie.
In the global market, three superhero films have begun to work together. In China, "Iron Man" and "Houyi 2" are evenly matched in terms of momentum. "Black Blade" can only be ranked at the bottom, even "Zhu Xian" can't compare.
.
In the United States, "Iron Man" became the most popular movie due to the strong suppression of "The Dark Knight", and "Iron Man" could only rank second.
In the global market, the three films compete with local films from other countries, and each has an advantage.
The propaganda war began with great vigor.
Downey and others began to briefly participate in several American programs under the arrangement of Universal. The programs there were basically interviews. Anyway, Lin Juan had a gag order and could only talk about the characters, not the plot, such as the tattoo on Tony's chest.
What are the functions of the things, who is the villain at the end, etc.
Don't mention it at all.
So Downey talked about what his character was like, interesting things and feelings during the filming process, etc., and also deliberately avoided the connection between this movie and the other two.
Just let fans think that this is a superhero film produced by Hollywood itself. As the film is about to be released, it’s better not to make things too complicated.
After all, many Americans actually look down on people from other countries.
…
July 15th.
In Jiangcheng, Lin Juan packed his things and was about to go out. His mother was saying to him: "Have you brought enough clothes? You are running around all day long..."
"The temperature in each city is different..."
"Eat less takeout and go to big restaurants..."
"Bring a girlfriend back..."
"Oh, you can do it, my son won't be able to catch the high-speed train if it's later." Dad said with disgust.
Lin Juan also smiled and said, "I know, Mom, don't worry, and I have a girlfriend."
"You have it? Who? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Chen Lin suddenly regained her energy, and Lin Zheng couldn't help but look over.
The family chatted and went out. Lin Juan also confessed to his parents in the car that he was being lenient. In fact, he didn't want to hide it in the first place. It was just that he had been busy before and Chen Lin never mentioned it. Now everything has been explained clearly.
"You can bring her back to play when you have time. My son is really capable and has found a big star to be his wife." Chen Lin was overjoyed.
Lin Zheng was serious: "For a director as big as my son, isn't it normal for him to find a female star as his girlfriend? I would say that Han Xiaoxue is not very beautiful, but Yang Mi and Liu Fei are about the same."
"Ouch, you old ghost is still floating... Then I'm not very beautiful, are you..."
Lin Juan couldn't laugh or cry, this was his biological father.
He arrived at Hankou Railway Station noisily. When he got off the bus, Lin Zheng did not forget to remind him: "Son, please bring the oranges with you... to eat on the way."
Lin Juan walked into the station entrance under the watch of the two of them, and got on the train to Tianhai again.
Sometimes people have to carry their own bags and leave home on a journey destined to be lonely.
To put it simply, he is going to promote the movie.
…
July 16, Oriental TV Building.
Lin Juan got out of the black nanny car and went to the recording site led by a group of staff from the "I Am an Actor" program.
The moment he walked into the studio, the entire program team was in a state of shock.
