Chapter 1,316 Director Dog’s words made even the dog shake his head.
The filming of "Happy Family" went smoothly. Although Tang Jun was indeed a bit strict, for Li Yi, it saved him a lot of things.
Let's put it this way, I am afraid of comparison in everything. In the past, people may have thought that Li Yi was too strict in some areas when making movies, but compared with Tang Junyi, it is simply not too easy.
It's just the outside world's speculation about the movie "Happy Family" that makes Li Yi dumbfounded.
Probably because Li Yi has too many criminal records, even the theme page of "Happy Family" says comedy/drama/horror!
But precisely because of these three labels, fans started to complain.
"You're here to lie to us again. A movie directed by a dog is labeled as a comedy. Believe it or not, I don't believe it anyway!"
"Let me tell you a joke, "The Gift from Room 7" is actually a horror movie!"
"Let me tell you a joke, "The Story of Hachiko, the Faithful Dog" is very healing!"
"Tell me a joke, "The King of Comedy" is very funny!"
"Let me tell you a joke, "Westward Journey" is a romantic comedy!"
...
For a time, many of Li Yi's past movies were pulled out to "tell a joke"!
The only thing to blame is that Li Yi's tricks in the past are really too numerous to describe. As long as he is a fan, there is no one who has not been deceived by him.
Especially those die-hard old movie fans will definitely still remember "The Gift of Room 7"!
No one expected that just a few tags would make the topic of "Happy Family" so popular that it would become a hot search topic.
Those celebrities, artists, or movies who try their best to buy hot searches and make headlines are so envious and jealous of Li Yi!
"Happy Family" has finished filming, and Li Yi was originally thinking about whether to wait until the exchange meeting before releasing it.
However, Zhao Guangming has been urging Li Yi to do post-production work quickly and complete the film.
"You definitely can't wait until the exchange meeting starts before releasing it. I have made arrangements here. The movie will be released before the exchange meeting. When the exchange meeting starts, your movie will be the most popular by then. At that time,
When everyone talks, their faces light up, right?" Zhao Guangming said with a smile.
Li Yi didn't care about this. After all, his mission was completed anyway, and he didn't need to worry too much about the rest.
However, idleness is idleness. The post-production of "Happy Family" actually does not take too long at all. Li Yi also took the time to accept a live interview program on the Six Princess Channel.
"Director Li, long time no see. In our interview today, can we give the right to ask questions to your fans present?" the host asked with a smile.
Naturally, I had communicated this with Li Yi before.
Li Yi is good at everything.
"Hello everyone, I am Li Yi!"
"Director Dog!"
"Director Dog!"
"Director Dog..."
It's very embarrassing. Li Yi is really embarrassed by Jill.
This group of movie fans is really hard to attract.
But in the end, the more than 300 people below who came to the scene almost all said the same thing.
Then seeing the embarrassed expression on Li Yi's face, they all burst into laughter.
"Are there any other directors coming today?" Li Yi pretended not to know, but turned to ask the host.
"No!" The host also suppressed a smile and said cooperatively.
"I am talking about you!"
"right!"
"Dog director, dog director, dog director!"
The fans below booed for a while, and then they all called Director Dog.
"No, "The Story of Hachiko" has been around for so many years. Isn't this title outdated? Are you still shouting?" Li Yi said with a speechless expression.
"Director Dog, Director Dog, Director Dog!" The fans below were still shouting like repeaters.
"Are you repeaters? No, these people here today are all my fans, right?" Li Yi looked like he was beyond love!
"Hahaha!" The fans at the scene burst into laughter.
"..."
"Let's go directly to the question and answer session. Who will ask the question first?" the host said to the fans below with a smile.
"I!"
"I!"
There are forests of long arms underneath! Everyone raises their hands, and some even raise their hands directly.
"The gentleman with his hands raised!" The host also happily pointed to the movie fan with his hands raised.
"I would like to ask Gou...uh, Director Li, is "Happy Family" really a comedy?" the fan asked, almost blurting out and calling him Director Gou.
Li Yi rolled his eyes helplessly, but still replied: "That's for sure, it's not a comedy, how can you call it happy?"
"Huh......"
It's a pity that the fans at the scene didn't show any respect at all, and there was a uniform voice of questioning.
Li Yi spread his hands and said, "I can't help you if you don't believe me. I just want to say that this time it's true, true, true. This movie is really happy and funny!"
"Don't believe it? You will know after watching the trailer!" Li Yi said, and the program team released the trailer of "Happy Family".
Everyone looked at the big screen curiously.
The trailer opens with a scene of the male protagonist swallowing pills and committing suicide with a sad face.
Then go directly to the hospital.
On the hospital bed, Shang Wan obviously did not smoke, but there was smoke coming out next to him.
The doctor came up and grabbed his hand, and unexpectedly a lit cigarette appeared in his hand.
Then, he ran and screamed in fear, then closed the door, and several Ah Piao floated in front of him!
Li Yi didn't do any tricks here, and directly used the "Big Head" special effects of 50 cents in the original version. Anyway, the several Ah Piao don't look like Ah Piao at all, but they feel like they are just for fun.
There is not just one Ah Piao, but four, a child, a woman, a man, and an old man!
But only he can see it, no one else can.
Then there was a series of jokes.
Everyone understands the simplicity of the plot, but they all have some doubts in their hearts. Could it be that this time, Director Dog really found out his conscience? Is this really a comedy movie?
Judging from the trailer, it seems to be a comedy.
But I don’t know why, but many old movie fans still feel that Director Dog is holding back his bad intentions again!
"So, everyone should believe it this time, right? I really don't lie!" Li Yi said seriously.
"Tch..." It just doesn't seem like the effect is very good.
"Next question!"
"Director Li, then this movie doesn't have any provocative and tear-jerking scenes, right?" This fan asked more directly.
Li Yi secretly wiped his sweat, what the hell, why is it so hard to fool this generation of movie fans?
"Yes, there is no such thing as sensationalism and tear-jerking!" Li Yi is totally not caring about anything like that!
And, the key thing is, he didn’t say anything nonsense, sensational and tear-inducing, etc., it all depends on the person, right?
If your tears are low, what can he do?
This time everyone actually believed it, mainly because the previous trailer really gave people the impression that it was funny all the way.
It is actually quite different from the earlier "King of Comedy".
Although "The King of Comedy" is nonsensical, in fact, there are not many truly funny scenes, and in every funny scene, everyone can actually see the bitterness in it.
It's that feeling that makes you laugh, but you can't.
But in the previous trailers for "Happy Family", every scene was indeed meant to be funny.
Afterwards, we chatted about some movie-related tidbits.
After this episode was aired, what made Li Yi dumbfounded was that the most popular topic turned out to be "Do you believe that Director Dog will make a pure comedy movie?"
Then the voting below made Li Yi shut himself up again.
This group of movie fans is really difficult to deal with.
There was actually one-sided disbelief!
"Haha, what Director Dog said, even the dog shook his head after hearing it, you actually believe it?"
"In "The Story of Hachiko", the dog director always emphasized that it was a very warm and healing movie! Then, after watching it, I cried like a fool! I couldn't help but want to cry when I saw the dog.
!”
"Haha, do you still remember "My Sassy Girl"? The same routine, the same formula, if you really believe what he said, you would be a fool!"
"The Gift from Room 7 is a horror movie!"
"But the trailer does seem to be a joke!" Some fans also raised doubts.
"The link to the trailer of "The Gift from Room No. 7" is sent here. Director Gou has been fooling everyone since he debuted. Back then, I finally made an appointment with my girl to watch a domestic thriller. I thought that after watching it, hey,
But in the end, both of them had their eyes swollen from crying, and they acted outrageously. From then on, I never believed in the dog director again!"
"If you don't sensationalize or stir up tears, wouldn't that kill Director Dog? If he says no, then there won't be any? Naive!"
"Hahahaha!" At home, Mu Qing looked at the comments of these fans and laughed so much that her stomach hurt.
Li Yi stood aside and looked helpless.
"Speaking of which, you do use too many tricks on your fans, hahaha!" Mu Qing laughed even harder when she saw Li Yi's look.
There is no way, as fans said, the sensational and tear-inducing scenes are almost engraved in Li Yi's bones.
Even if it's a gangster movie like "A Better Tomorrow," there are still sensational parts in it.
Not to mention the dawn of "A Chinese Ghost Story" doesn't come.
The last half hour of "The Story of Hachiko" is full of emotions.
"Life is Beautiful" and so on, and so on.
The phrase "habitual offender" could not be more appropriate.
But no matter what, the effect of this wave of publicity is outstanding.
Although everyone is saying that they don't believe Li Yi, in fact, everyone is extremely curious and looking forward to this movie.
After all, it is already recognized that the products produced by Li Yi must be of high quality.
No matter how bad Li Yi's movies are, they are still at a higher level than other movies.
"Happy Family", as the banner film of the China-Korea Cultural Exchange Conference, has naturally received great convenience in terms of promotion and distribution.
It can even be said that at the same time, almost everyone avoided this movie.
Today, no director is really hard-headed enough to go head-to-head with Li Yi's film.
Not to mention, if you try to touch it this time, you will definitely get a bloody head. After all, this movie itself has been given a special mission.
The first screening was held in the largest screening hall of Beijing Times International Cinema.
There were not only film critics and media people from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, but also media and film critics from Bangzi who came all the way from Bangzi.
The entire screening hall, which can accommodate 3,000 people, was packed with seats.
This can basically be said to be the standard feature for Li Yi's movie screenings.
There are also many film critics and media people who are unable to get in even if they want to, and can only wait for the next screening.
At the same moment, countless movie fans are eagerly waiting on the Internet to see whether this movie is really a pure comedy as Li Yi said?
Has Director Dog really given up on the tear-jerking and sensationalism that he is best at?
There is not much to say at the beginning of the film. It opens with the male protagonist played by Zhou Xing crying in front of the camera.
He was an orphan. Since he was a child, many people came to the orphanage to express condolences, and different people would ask his name, but no one really remembered his name.
In loneliness and despair, he said: "I'm tired!"
Stuffing sleeping pills one after another.
Suddenly there was an unexpected phone ringing.
He searched for it, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find any water. Even the kettle was empty.
This is embarrassing.
He can't swallow it!
I had to spit out the sleeping pills in my mouth and go to answer the phone.
The call was from the hotel owner!
Tell him that it costs 100 yuan to stay in a part-time room and 200 yuan to live in a hotel.
He hung up the phone directly.
He also complained: "I'm here to seek death, how wrong would it be to pay an extra hundred yuan?"
Sporadic laughter erupted in the theater.
That makes sense, but you've decided to commit suicide, so why are you keeping the money?
He went to the bathroom, drank tap water and swallowed the pills.
My vision gradually began to blur, and it was obvious that the sleeping pills were beginning to take effect.
He lay on the ground and closed his eyes when he saw the warm scene of a family reunion on TV.
But the hotel owner arrived in time and he was taken to the hospital.
This was not the first time that he committed suicide, jumping into a river, hanging, etc.
It's a pity that he was saved every time he committed suicide.
In the hospital, he woke up.
As a result, he found that everyone was looking at him strangely.
He took a deep breath, and a puff of smoke puffed out next to him.
Shang Wan turned around and was dumbfounded. There was actually an uncle sitting next to him, puffing away leisurely.
He was startled, but the uncle still blew out smoke rings one after another in a show of skill.
"Well, it seems like smoking is not allowed in the hospital, right?"
But the uncle blew out two puffs of smoke from his nose.
But the nurse suddenly came over, grabbed his hand, and snatched the cigarette from his hand.
"Huh?" He himself was a little dumbfounded.
Why the hell do I have cigarettes on my hands?
He raised his hand and moved it around. He looked at it for a long time and still couldn't figure out why there was smoke in his hand.
Then he looked at the uncle. The uncle was actually looking at his hands and winking at him.
Confused! Capitalized Confused!
Then, he started to be pushed to the psychiatry on the way.
He asked the nurse with a puzzled look on his face: "Do I have to go with him?"
The last shot actually told the audience what that uncle was.
Therefore, when he asked this question, the nurse looked confused and speechless.
