Chapter five hundred and eighty fourth ridicule from foreign girls
When Li Yi and Cheng Yajie rushed to the cinema, there was less than ten minutes left before checking in for tickets. The hall was already overcrowded with people coming to see A Chinese Ghost Story.
Everyone was chatting and waiting, and most of the topics revolved around the movie that was about to be screened.
“I finally waited until this movie was released!”
"Yes, I have been looking forward to this day every day since I saw the trailer!"
"Yi Ge and Zhang Min in the trailer really match each other so well. When paired with the song of the same name, it's simply better than any MV! I've watched it more than 40 times!"
"More than forty times is nothing, I have watched it at least more than a hundred times! To be honest, I have never watched Li Yi's movies before. I am not a fan of his. I only like to listen to his songs. This time
I was also attracted by this song which was only played half in the trailer.”
"Hahahahaha! Then you are at the right place! Believe me, Brother Yi's movies are just like his songs. They never disappoint. I guarantee that after watching the movie this time, you will not only become his fan, but also
His fans!”
"..."
Li Yi and Cheng Yajie mingled in the crowd, listening to everyone's discussion, with a smile on their lips.
It can be heard that everyone's expectations for this movie are still very high, and Li Yi also believes that he will not disappoint them this time, and promises to come with joy and return with joy!
At this moment, outside the theater, a foreign beauty with brown hair and blue eyes pulled a blonde beauty who was also a foreigner and rushed in at a trot.
"Great! Finally arrived!"
The brown-haired beauty kept breathing heavily, but her face was full of excitement: "Lucy, this is the surprise I told you! He is my favorite movie star in China. I brought you here just to
Let’s watch the premiere of his new movie! God testifies, tickets for his premiere are so hard to get, and I had a hard time getting them!”
From where Li Yi was standing, he could clearly see the two of them. When he saw them rushing in in a panic, Li Yi just glanced at them subconsciously, but the brown-haired beauty spoke fluent Mandarin and couldn't help but let him
I took another look.
"Betty, please speak English to me. You know, I don't understand Chinese. I have no idea what you are talking about! Also, I came all the way from America. I just got off the plane and I'm not even jet lag.
Come here, I'm still hungry, and you bring me to a place like this? Oh my God!" The blonde beauty known as Lucy complained in English.
Betty hurriedly said sorry to her in English, and then went to buy her a bucket of popcorn and Coke to apologize to her and give her some comfort. She repeated what she had said before in English and emphasized the reason why.
I rushed here in such a hurry because I was afraid of missing the premiere.
"This Chinese guy looks familiar. I seem to recognize him. I remember his name is...forget it. I can't remember the names of these Chinese people anyway."
Lucy looked at the poster of Ghost Girl and stuffed popcorn into her mouth while saying: "But I still remember that this person was nominated for Best Actor at Cannes for a comedy film. To be honest, I hate him very much. I
Even his friends don’t like him.”
Betty knew that Lucy also liked watching movies, so they could become very good friends, but she didn't expect that Lucy couldn't even remember Li Yi's name and actually hated him so much!
So, she tried to explain to Lucy, telling her that Li Yi was not just a comedian as foreign media promoted, but she said a lot of words, Lucy didn't listen at all, and still insisted that no matter what
Neither Li Yi's nor Hua Xia's movies are worth watching.
Moreover, Lucy kept asking Betty to take her away, and she had no desire to go in and watch the movie. Both her tone and the meaning behind her words were full of disdain for Chinese movies.
Being so close, Li Yi heard all their conversations word for word, even though they were in English.
"Li Yi, what are they talking about?" Cheng Yajie noticed that Li Yi was looking at the two foreign beauties and kept talking next to them, so she asked secretly.
"They are all praising your boyfriend and saying that my movies are very good." Li Yi said casually, not caring about what the blonde beauty said or paying attention at all.
"Of course, my baby is the best!" Cheng Yajie smiled and hugged Li Yi. Of course she was happy to hear that even foreigners liked her man's movies so much.
Soon, it was time to enter the venue. Everyone lined up to check in and walk towards the screening room where they were.
The blonde beauty named Lucy, despite all the reluctance, was dragged in by her friend Betty. What Li Yi didn't expect was that not only were they in the same theater as him, but they were also sitting in front of them.
.
The theater was naturally packed with seats, and everyone was chatting while the commercials were showing. However, other audience members were talking about how much they were looking forward to the movie. Only Lucy, who was sitting in front of Li Yi, was still chatting.
He kept complaining to Betty in various ways.
Li Yi himself didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, even if he is a soft girl, some people don't like him. What's more, he is just a human being. There are many people who like him, but there are not a few people who hate him no matter what.
But Betty listened to Lucy's various cynicism about Li Yi. Although she didn't say anything, she kept praying in her heart, hoping that Lucy's words would not attract the attention of other viewers.
Otherwise, most of the people present were Li Yi's fans. She couldn't guarantee what would happen next. Beating them wouldn't be enough, but giving them a cold look and kicking them out was definitely possible!
Soon, the lights in the theater dimmed and the movie was about to start. The original noisy sound disappeared instantly, and Lucy obediently closed her mouth.
However, everyone else sat upright and looked at the big screen with anticipation in their eyes. Only she sat there slumped with her arms folded, with a look of disdain and annoyance!
As soon as the movie opens, it's night, and the atmosphere and soundtrack are all eerie.
I saw a scholar in a common room in a ruined temple called Lanruo Temple outside the wilderness, reading at night.
When many people saw him looking like a scholar, they subconsciously cheered up, thinking that it was Li Yi who had appeared. However, after taking a closer look, they found out that the scholar was not Li Yi, and they couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"Since he's not Brother Yi, he must be the one receiving lunch!" someone murmured.
Just as he said, a gust of wind blew open the window, and a woman in plain clothes came in and danced in the moonlight.
In the wilderness, what else could it be but a wild ghost!!
I saw a dancing woman on the big screen, throwing out the gauze in her hand, and it was immediately held by the scholar, who took a gentle sniff, with an intoxicated expression on her face.
Then, the woman Yu Yuyu gently pulled her hand, and the scholar walked towards her with an intoxicated look on his face. The two hugged each other, and Zhang Min's cold side face could be vaguely seen under the moonlight. The picture was hazy and beautiful.
If the audience had not known that this story was about the love between humans and ghosts, and that Nie Xiaoqian, played by Zhang Min, was a female ghost, such a scene would definitely make them feel very enjoyable and relaxed.
But at this moment, coupled with the ethereal background music and the background of the story, it gives people a sense of depression and an inexplicable sadness!
Soon, the camera turned sharply, and the wind suddenly started blowing outside Lanruo Temple. It was quickly approaching from a first-person perspective, accompanied by the rapid sound of wind chimes and background music, giving people a strong sense of oppression!
The scholar, who was enjoying himself, suddenly widened his eyes, with boundless horror in his eyes, and screamed out in fear and pain!
At the same time, the candlelight in the room went out, and the screen suddenly went black. Then a piece of red silk as bright as blood fluttered, covering the entire screen, and the four characters "A Chinese Ghost Story" slowly appeared.
“Although this title is a bit cliché, it’s still very eye-catching!”
"As expected of a movie directed and acted by Brother Yi, such a clichéd opening can be shot so attractively!"
"There is not a single line or narration in the whole process. The characters and pictures alone are enough to portray the gloomy feeling in the background of the story!"
"The scene just now felt really good. It was both eerie and sad at the same time!"
"There are also scenes, props, etc., all the small details are full of care, and the strong ancient flavor makes it feel very period!"
"It's a pity that Zhang Min only showed a side face, but I can still feel the unearthly poignancy!"
"I don't know when Brother Yi will appear. If the scholar he plays is the scholar, no matter how ruthless the female ghost is, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear to do it!"
The audience was talking a lot. They were all very satisfied with the opening just now and thought it was very good.
"It's so boring!!" Lucy crossed her arms. After watching the opening, she looked even more impatient.
She had even made a plan in her mind. After sitting there for a few more minutes, she would excuse herself to use the restroom, then find a place to eat in the mall, waiting until Betty came out after watching the movie.
Even if you do nothing, it is better than enduring boring Chinese movies here!!
After the opening scene, the camera turned and saw Li Yi, dressed as a scholar and carrying a book on his back, walking towards the camera on a rugged mountain road among the mist in the green mountains.
Seeing Li Yi's appearance, the audience, who had been talking a moment ago, instantly became quiet, refreshed, and began to watch more seriously.
"The road of life is like a long dream,
There is wind and frost on the road, and the wind and frost hit my face.
In the world of mortals, dreams have many directions,
Looking for love in the heart of crazy dreams, the road is confusing with everyone."
Along with Li Yi's appearance, the singing voice of A Chinese Ghost Story sounded, and the familiar background music made the audience even more excited!
Since the release of the trailer for A Chinese Ghost Story, they have listened to the song of the same name countless times, and they are already familiar with it. At this moment, many viewers can't help but hum along:
"Life is about dreams and desires, and there are vague tears in the dreams~"
"Where to go, to find the direction in my heart, the wind seems to be sighing in a dream, the roads and people are vast"
Even Cheng Yajie couldn't help but hum along as she looked at the picture on the screen and hugged Li Yi's arm along with the background music.
Lucy, who had been slumped on the chair with an impatient expression before, slowly sat up straight after hearing the singing, and was also fascinated by the song.
Music knows no boundaries. Although Lucy could only barely understand the meaning of the lyrics through the English subtitles attached under the subtitles, the beautiful melody and a bolt of lightning struck her heart hard!
Li Yi's touching singing voice is like the quality of a song. For professionals or competition judges, it can be divided into many criteria to judge. But for ordinary people, the quality of a song depends on the sound it plays.
At that moment, you can already make a decision with your heart!
Anything that can make people listen to it and be immersed in it is good music!
Listening to the song, and then watching Li Yi's performance on the screen, Lucy's impression of Li Yi changed from the original repulsive one to no longer disgusting, but also a little more curious.
"Betty, you said before, what is the name of this Chinese actor?" Lucy couldn't help but ask Betty beside her, because she remembered that Betty had told her before that the song in the movie was the actor himself.
Written, composed and sung.
"His name is Li Yi." Betty replied. At the same time, she also noticed that Lucy sat up straight, and her attitude towards Li Yi was not as disgusting as before. She couldn't help but said: "How about it, I said he is very good, right?"
, are you starting to like him too?"
Lucy curled her lips and said: "I just think this song is pretty good. As for the acting skills and personal charm, I don't feel it at all!"
Betty didn't argue with her and continued to look at the big screen.
Li Yi waded through mountains and rivers all the way and hurried on the road. It looked like his husband was working extremely hard. When the audience saw that the umbrella he took out was broken when facing a sudden rainstorm, they couldn't help but laugh. At the same time, they also felt sorry for the character.
have a deeper understanding of the situation.
Li Yi, who was holding a broken umbrella, was soaked in the rain and rushed to a thatched shed beside the mountain road to take shelter from the rain. He looked extremely embarrassed and pitiful.
At this moment, the sound of the music suddenly increased, and the tone became more exciting. While the audience was shocked, they saw Xiahou Swordsman chasing a few bandits running towards them.
Although the opponent begged for mercy in every possible way, the Xiahou swordsman still raised his sword and chopped off the opponent's head, splashing blood on Li Yi's face!
The ruthlessness of the Xiahou swordsman made Li Yi retreat and tremble. At the same time, the music slowed down again, and Li Yi's singing sounded again as the background music:
"The road to the world, happy young man, is bumpy and bumpy with no sunshine~"
"In the mud, there are many directions for happiness, there are traces of dreamy wind and rain, and the road is blurry with people,
"Like silky wind and rain ~ the road is blurry with people"
It is the second half of the song that has made countless people miss it since the release of the trailer!
In the movie, Li Yi's performance was moving, and everyone watching could not take their eyes off it, but his singing was even more moving for the audience, because they had finally heard the full version of the song after waiting for so long!!!
