A fat man wearing a peaked cap and a mask on his face took the movie ticket stub from the cinema employee, went to the theater as designated, walked straight to the corner of the last row and sat down.
As time passed, most of the audience entered the theater. Fatty raised his head and glanced at it. The attendance rate was almost over 65%, which was pretty good.
The lights in the theater were turned off, and everything was dark except for the screen in front of him. The fat man took off his mask, took out his glasses case from his pocket, took out his myopia glasses and put them on.
If there are netizens who like to hang out on Bibo and Zhihu, they can easily recognize who this fat guy is when they see this face.
That is Pang Yidian, a big V who understands the world, a famous third-rate screenwriter, the most influential person on the Internet, and the most creative person in dramas.
Speaking of Big V, it has been several years since he last appeared.
As Zuo Le's status grew higher, he not only held important positions in many official associations, but his influence in the film and television industry also continued to expand, and his net worth and capital became richer.
Pang Yidian has long since ceased to be a "left black". In the past two years, he has not even touched on topics related to mountains and rivers. It is extremely Buddhist.
Many people are making fun of Pang Pang V for "pulling out" now, but as everyone knows, Pang Yidian has always been a smart man who assesses the situation.
At the beginning, Pang Yidian took the initiative to provoke Zuo Le because of "Seven Swords". Although this operation seems quite unwise now, it is actually somewhat of an afterthought.
At that time, Zuo Le was just a sitcom director. Although his results were good, he was far from being able to dominate the crowd later. Even Zuo Le was almost tired of winning the Golden Phoenix Best Director award at that time. At that time, he was not even qualified to be shortlisted.
.
Moreover, "Wulin Gaiden" has not yet been released, and Zuo Le has not yet become a god with sitcoms. He can only be regarded as an excellent sitcom director and has never dealt with costume themes.
When such a director suddenly said that he wanted to make a big martial arts production, Pang Yidian was not the only one who was criticized online in the industry, and there were countless people who sneered at him.
The key is that others just mentioned it briefly and said a few words of praise and that was it, but Pang Yidian thought he had run into a soft persimmon and kept catching this matter to no end, and he talked too much, so he put himself on the line.
So much so that when "Seven Swords" became a hit, Pang Yidian was slapped in the face like crazy and became the laughing stock of the entire network. He even made a farce of quitting the network and then coming back again.
Officially because of this turmoil, Pang Yidian and Zuo Le formed a feud.
Of course, Zuo Le didn't take him seriously at all, but Pang Yidian hated Zuo Le deeply.
After that, whether it was Zuo Le's work or the Shanhe drama directed by Kong, Gao, Xue and others, one Pang Yidian was broadcast and the other was broadcast. It is precisely because of this that he won the title of "the most popular Zuo Hei in the entire network"
nickname.
It was also during this period that Pang Yidian gained huge traffic and attention through "Zuohei", although it was mostly negative.
But again, black and red are also red.
If we say that in the early stage, Pang Yidian blackmailed Zuo Le because of personal grudges and purely to vent his anger.
But when Pang Yidian tasted the sweetness and began to master the code of wealth, he continued to target Shanhe and Zuo Le, which was more of a purposeful hype.
If you can carefully study Pang Yidian's "Zuo Hei" speech at that time, you will find that most of the views he expressed were based on the popularity of Shanhe.
Moreover, the language used was obviously much more euphemistic. What started as a direct and explicit confrontation has gradually turned into a side ball. Many of the so-called "smear campaigns" are also vague, specious, and not as "sharp" as in the early stage.
.
The main reason for this is that Pang Yidian was afraid of causing a big fuss and Zuo Le going to court with him, so he deliberately downplayed the parties involved and reduced their legal liability.
In addition, at that time, Zuo Le was gradually rising and Shanhe was becoming more and more powerful. Pang Yidian did not dare to quarrel with Zuo Le, so he could only play on the sidelines.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't bear the heat, Pang Yidian would have wanted to wash his hands in a golden basin.
However, Pang Yidian, who has always been quick-thinking, also realized that he would not be able to survive on this "left black" path for the rest of his life, so he planned to transfer the remaining foundation to other fields while the popularity was still there.
It was at this time that the "Anti-Japanese War Qixia Martial Arts Team: Gun God Flying Sword Yan Shan Ying", known as the first imaginative drama of the Anti-Japanese War, was born.
This drama gave birth to many jokes, and it can even be said to be the master of anti-war dramas.
It received a lot of attention when it first came online. At that time, "Bright Sword" was on the air, and Li Yunlong was so popular that he could block the gods and kill the Buddhas, but he didn't suppress Yan Shanying's limelight.
At that time, the Internet ghost video editing was divided into three parts. Li Yunlong accounted for 70%, Yan Shanying accounted for 20%, and the remaining 10% was left to others.
The TV series that he wrote and participated in the production became so popular that Pang Yidian, who was used to being in the street, had a turnaround.
However, it was his destiny to die.
He usually just goes along with it, but just in time when "Bright Sword" became a hit, and the official was preparing to set an example, his bizarre drama hit the target.
It was removed from the Internet for "insulting heroes and martyrs", and Pang Yidian was also blacklisted by relevant departments, which almost eliminated any hope of developing in the film and television industry.
The leak happened even though it rained all night. Because the TV series was removed due to production reasons, the platform demanded liquidated damages from the crew, and even Pang Yidian was forced to be involved in the lawsuit.
As a result, in the end, Pang Yidian didn't make a penny, but even subsidized hundreds of thousands of dollars, which was a miserable situation.
The road in the film and television industry was blocked, and Zuohei was short-lived. Pang Yidian got excited and went to sea to join the trend of live broadcasting.
Relying on the reputation accumulated over the years, I became an Internet celebrity. Later, I cooperated with several companies and started live streaming to sell goods.
At first, Pang Yidian's Internet celebrity career developed quite well, and he made a small fortune, which led him to abandon his "leftist black" career and plunge into the world of the Internet without hesitation.
However, Pang Yidian forgot one thing, the Internet is all virtual, and the Internet industry is too deep for him to grasp.
So, after less than two years of good life, he suffered a huge setback. Not only did he lose all his wealth, he also owed millions in foreign debts.
The most important thing is that he has been semi-banned by several live broadcast platforms due to credibility issues. At least for a few years, he will not want to live broadcast to bring goods.
After working so hard for half a lifetime, it was okay to get scolded because I felt like a dog. At least I could put some benefits in my pocket, but in the end, all the benefits were gone.
To this day, Pang Yidian doesn't know how he got through this. He didn't suffer from depression or thought of committing suicide.
It is estimated that many years of being ridiculed by the entire Internet have given him a big heart that can handle things.
…………
Nowadays, Pang Yidian is no longer involved in live broadcasts and film and television, and he does not dare to do anything shady. He just acts as his own big V and rides on the popularity.
At least I still have some "fans" foundation, I get the right amount of traffic every day, and I can make a guaranteed six-figure income in a month. If I'm lucky, I hit a hot spot, and at least half of my monthly income can be covered.
Moreover, Pang Yidian is not only working on his own "big number". Although Pangda V has many "fans", its reputation has long been notorious, and the number of fans and income conversion rate are extremely low.
Therefore, Pang Yidian created a vest called "Pang Pang Kan Movies", which specializes in film review videos and articles.
Although his record as a screenwriter is mediocre, he was able to become a big V in famous companies such as Zhihu and Bibo, and he was able to fight with a lot of Shanhe fans, thus achieving the notoriety of being the number one black actor.
Pang Yidian still has some real skills, at least in terms of film and television appreciation and self-media operation, he is a real expert.
Therefore, the account [Pangpangkankanmovies] has really made him successful. He has 3 million+ fans in the bib, 8.5 million+ fans in the short video, 800,000+ fans in the currency website, and a total of nearly 20 million fans in the entire network.
Of course, there is bound to be some moisture in the data here, but overall, this account can be regarded as a well-known film critic.
Relying on this account, Pang Yidian basically paid off his debts and gained a new life, so he attaches great importance to this vest, even more than the big name "Pang V".
The current production process of "Pang Pang Kan Movie" is as follows. Pang Yidian writes the script himself, directs and edits the video, and then finds a special host to record and explain.
Among the many film review accounts, [Pang Pang Kan Movies] is of the highest quality and is known for its sharp reviews and detailed explanations.
Moreover, it is worth mentioning that the famous work of this account is the long-form analysis of three mountain and river dramas: "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Enter Guandong" and "Mansion Gate". It is currently preparing to explain "Mao Liang".
The mountain and river dramas that I used to sneer at have now become my livelihood. Pang Yidian felt very complicated, and at the same time he hid [Pang Pang Kan Movie] more and more.
If the horse explodes one day, he will not die on the spot.
Although he has died several times...
Pang Yidian came to watch "Wushuang" today. Actually, he came here just to gain popularity, and at the same time, he also had some dark thoughts.
If the quality of "Wushuang" is not good, as a film critic who "believes in telling the truth", he will definitely disclose the shortcomings to the audience fairly to prevent everyone from triggering a minefield.
Just as Pang Yidian was muttering in his heart, the dragon logo and the opening special effects flashed on the cinema screen, and the official plot of "Wushuang" began.
At the beginning of the plot, there is a prison. A young man played by Liu Tianwang uses fish bones to dip into the blue paint of the wall and hand-draws a stamp. The young man's skills are very good, and the stamp is almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
The audience in the theater were a little surprised when they saw this scene, including Pang Yidian.
Immediately afterwards, the young man took the letter with the stamp on it and used some trick to throw it out while the prison guard was receiving the letter. The audience learned about it afterward.
This young man copied stamps not to show off his skills, but because he had no choice but to do it because he had no money.
However, there are also some keen viewers who realize that this may be a foreshadowing. The connection between Liu Tianwang and the plot may be related to this amazing painting skill.
Soon, the young man appeared in a police car from prison, and his life background finally unfolded.
The young man's name is Li Wen, and he is a member of an international counterfeit banknote group. This group killed seven central bank guards in his country two years ago. In the same year, he launched a major crime in the Golden Triangle, killing 82 people and injuring more than 100 people.
In addition, there was an arson case in a printing and dyeing shop, killing a Canadian policeman and an art dealer in a hotel.
There are six people in this counterfeit banknote group, four of whom are dead. Only the leaders of the gang, Painter and Li Wen, are alive.
The painter is extremely mysterious. The Xiangjiang police have been keeping an eye on him for a long time, but they have not been able to get any effective information. Now that they have finally caught Li Wen, don't try to find a breakthrough from him.
However, Li Wen was very afraid of the painter and did not dare to disclose information to the police. The police threatened and induced Li Wen, but he still refused to speak.
At this time, a female painter named Ruan Wen and several bigwigs from Xiangjiang's business community came to bail Li Wen out, and the police negotiated.
It turns out that the letter Li Wen posted in prison was for Ruan Wen asking for help. The two were old lovers. After receiving the news, she brought people to rescue Li Wen.
The police stated that as long as Li Wen confessed to being a painter, he would be released on bail and the police would ensure his safety.
The art dealer who was killed in the hotel before was Ruan Wen's fiancé. She wanted to take revenge on the painter.
So, under Ruan Wen's persuasion, Li Wen finally relented and told about his entanglement with the painter.
Many years ago, Li Wen and his girlfriend Ruan Wen were new painters who had just debuted. Different from other painters, Li Wen was very good at copying and could almost fake the real thing.
But back then, when it came to painting, more people valued the expression of ideas rather than the techniques.
No matter how good Li Wen is at painting, he can only make a living by copying fake paintings, while Ruan Wen, who takes the original route, has been recognized by his paintings and can hold art exhibitions.
Ruan Wen felt sorry for her boyfriend and specially put Li Wen's paintings in the art exhibition. Unfortunately, no one showed any interest, and a middle-aged man who looked like Fa Ge came up to make fun of him.
Ruan Wen was furious and threw a glass of wine at the other party. Li Wen chased after her and apologized for her, only to learn that the middle-aged man came to him.
It turned out that the middle-aged man learned about Li Wen's painting skills from elsewhere and admired him greatly. He thought he was a talent, so he wanted to ask Li Wen to help him and gave him a business card.
The name on the business card is the painter.
Li Wen was hesitant, but when he returned to the art exhibition, he found that Ruan Wen's paintings had been sold out and his own paintings were left alone. Li Wen was completely discouraged, burned the paintings, and prepared to join the painter.
However, the next day, Li Wen met with the painter, and he realized that the other person was looking for him to make counterfeit money.
Li Wen was timid and did not dare to break the law. The painter told him that three generations of his family had been counterfeiting banknotes, but no one had ever been to jail, so they were very safe.
But Li Wen was still unwilling, claiming that even if he starved to death, he would not turn to crime. However, he learned that his girlfriend Ruan Wen and his art dealer were heading to the United States.
Determined to make a difference, Li Wen found a painter again and expressed his willingness to join the team.
So delicious!
The painter introduced Li Wen to the rest of the team, including Uncle Li, who was responsible for drawing the backing board, and the other three were responsible for transportation, security and logistics.
What Li Wen wanted to do was to make an exact copy of the new U.S. dollar bill.
Compared with the old version, this new banknote uses Franklin's portrait, enlarges the image by 50%, and greatly increases the line details.
Even the highest-resolution printers currently produce moiré patterns, and Franklin’s collar uses microprinting.
That's why the painter turned to Li Wen, who is comparable to a human photocopier. If technology couldn't solve the problem, he would draw it manually.
"Fuck!"
Real people draw banknotes with pens?
The audience in the theater was shocked, and Pang Yidian was also a little confused. His wife was a serious art student and graduated from Beijing Mei. How could she not know that this operation existed?
If an art student is really so good, would he still write film reviews in a bitter way...
Frankly speaking, the beginning of "Wushuang" is not outstanding, even a little boring, but from this moment on.
