Chapter 172: All eyes are on

Although the ending of "Infernal Affairs" made the emotional audience feel depressed and uncomfortable for a night, the classic shots and storylines of the movie were deeply rooted in their minds and lingered. Then the excitement was difficult to calm down. I was eager to find a friend to vent, and then I led more viewers into the cinema.

The next day, the crew had already arrived in the capital overnight. When the night in the capital passed and daylight came. After working overtime in the middle of the night, Chen Tiandu had already obtained the box office statistics of the movie premiere in Hong Kong in the morning.

The first day was released in the Sixty-Seventh Academy. At 12:30 and 2:30,000, and 2:30,000 were collected respectively, and the two games were about 510,000. The box office revenue of the whole day was expected to reach three million, and it was almost sweeping thousands of troops to set off the first shot for the millennium Hong Kong films, which made people in the circle very excited. It is estimated that they can receive nearly 20 million yuan in one week after the first release.

Almost every show is full, and this attendance rate has stimulated the theater owners so much that they have to add more screenings. They are a little bit disgusted with why the movie is so long. At least two less screens are released in a day in 160 minutes.

The Hong Kong media was also ignited almost instantly, Chengbao: "I can't believe that a non-Hong Kong person can create such a movie that understands traditional Hong Kong police and gangster films so well. The acting skills are excellent, every actor is the most suitable role, and the double-undercover setting is even more exciting. Whether it is photography, soundtrack, editing, makeup, or costumes, they are all the top ones. I love this movie so classic!"

"This is a masterpiece! an unsurpassed masterpiece!"

Excited movie fans shouted this slogan, "Because it has an ending that others dare not do, this ending will obviously make countless people sad, but it will kill the male protagonist so simply and directly enhance the classic status of the film to a higher level."

Oriental Daily: "The 160-minute movie has a wonderful round after round. A classic Ni Yongxiao has just died and another stronger Han Chen has come out. The foreplay has been laid out brilliantly, which is the second half of the riots. You can't find any jungler time period. Even the slowest-paced emotional scene in the whole film, Chen Tian has personally dedicated a wonderful and exciting bed scene..."

Ming Pao: "The nearly ten years of changes in the storm before and after the return of Hong Kong were expressed by a ten-year undercover career, which not only describes people but also calls for the background of the era, which is very grand. This is something that Hong Kong filmmakers need to learn from. There are also no traces of special effects, but they are comparable to the makeup effect of special effects. I think when the audience saw Andy Lau, who was young and young twenty years ago, reappeared on the big screen. In addition, the superb soundtrack in the movie, even the gunshots were plotted into the soundtrack, and there was also the completely unexpected plot twist... it was fascinating."

Brother Chenlong was interviewed by a reporter when he attended the event and asked if he had watched a movie yesterday.

The eldest brother shook his head, but he said with great certainty: "Of course I watched it. In fact, when I was in the United States, I heard that I had never found a chance to watch it. Especially this is a movie that did not rely on action and achieved box office success in North America. It was very powerful and squeezed my "Western Region Veyron" out of the top eight. Yesterday I couldn't help but watch it secretly, and it was indeed famous... How did you say that?"

"There is no vain under the reputation?" "It is actually difficult to be famous?"

"Yes, that's the sentence, the previous sentence." The elder brother said with a smile, then waved to the reporter who said the next sentence, and said with a smile: "Hey, don't make trouble, how can it be difficult to bully me and not study." The reporters all laughed.

"Actually, I have wanted to know Chen Tiandu, a young man, but he didn't invite me to the premiere yesterday. I will definitely go there... I hope I can have the opportunity to work with him and then create a movie that makes everyone stunned. You can tell him this sentence for me."

The question about the film being different from the American screening version was naturally discovered by the powerful media. And overnight, we compared the differences and why.

The answer is, "The version released in Hong Kong is more refined, the emotions are more restrained, and the plots such as burning incense at the Buddhist temple are more in line with the movie-watching emotions of Hong Kong people. The American territory is an authentic American film. Strangely, the style of these two movies has changed a lot in some places, and Chen Tian is so clear about the psychological understanding of the audiences in both places."

During the break, the first day of Baodao was also freshly released: "This movie has just been released in Taiwan, but it quickly set off a storm... The entire Taiwan Island is shrouded in a powerful aura of the king because of the release of this movie. Police and criminals are so cool. Although the police died and the villain lived in the ending of the movie. This ending made many people depressed, but people were happy. Some young people even watched it over and over again. The Hollywood blockbuster "Gladiator" and "Mission Impossible 2" that were previously popular among Taiwanese audiences were all left behind..."

Crazy fans are almost blindly admiring the movie now. The more crazy they are about the movie, the more crazy they are about Chen Tiandu’s die-hard fans.

And the result is that "the box office of Baodao directly exceeded NT$10 million on the first day of its release, about NT$2 million."...

A theme that is almost a bad movie in Hong Kong, police and gangster film.

No one was optimistic about this kind of subject beforehand. Even though Chen Tian had found a large number of popular actors to play, some people were still watching the fun with the thought of watching you flopped. No one thought that the police and gangster themes could become popular again. Indeed, the former police and gangster films have become a symbol of Hong Kong's classic police and gangster films since "The True Color of Heroes", but it is difficult to have any work that surpasses that movie since then.

Follow the trend, spoofs abound.

In October 1999, a young mainland man who shined in Hollywood did not believe in evil. He came to Hong Kong with the super popularity of Hollywood's rise, chose this theme that was badly filmed and made this movie.

Now, the market-saving work is well deserved!

The appearance of "Infernal Affairs" has indeed made the somewhat quiet Hong Kong area not so lively for a long time. Almost all newspapers and media on the first day, there were praises and cheers, as if they were spending a party celebrating victory: "The whole of Asia and North America are released, and the next one is Europe. "Infernal Affairs" aims at the most popular Chinese film!"

At the same time, the weather in the capital was sunny in the morning.

A red carpet was laid at the gate of China Film International Cinema. At this time, a large number of fans who had not dispersed were still gathered on the carpet. They all looked about 20 years old, and there were also young middle school students with young faces full of smiles. They held notebooks, posters and other objects in their hands. From time to time, they looked at the cinema and laughed at each other and talked about something.

"It's over, Chen Tian smiled at me just now!", "If my class knew that I got Chen Tiandu's signature, haha!", "What awesome, I also got Xiaoyanzi's signature.", "Damn, Zhao Wei is just here to support her, not the starring actor of the movie, what's so amazing.", "You just envy you. I have the signatures of Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei, I feel so good! Haha!", "Andy Lau is so handsome!", "Chen Kelly Chen is also quite beautiful!"...

Nearly ten security guards at the door were listening to these words absent-mindedly, guarding the door. The screams caused by the red carpet entrance before, and the crazy scene that was once out of control was still clearly visible. They also chatted and discussed: "These students are crazy, Chen Tiandu and Chen Tiandu shouted so hard that my ears were sore." "The tickets inside are more than a hundred and a thousand, and they were snatched up all at once. They can't buy money. Are you crazy?" "That's a good seat, and the ones in the seam are all fried to several thousand!"...

Many stars were also assisting the premiere, and Zhongying had an extremely strong face. Feng Xiaogang was also invited to attend.

"The promised three years, three years later, three years later, three years later, three years later, and almost ten years ago, the boss—"

"Give me a chance." "How do you give you a chance?" "I didn't have a choice before, I just want to be a good person." "Okay, let me die." "Sorry, I'm a policeman." "Who knows?!"...

The screening hall for the premiere of the theater was full of people, and the audience was watching the plot flowing on the big screen, with their eyes fixed on the big screen without turning any movement.

"Infernal Affairs" has arrived at the final scene. When Chen Yongren pointed a gun at Liu Jianmin and walked towards the police station, the elevator door suddenly opened, "Bang!"

"Wow~~" The audience in the theater almost burst into pieces, and the ending was completely unacceptable. A policeman died so hard, so straightforward. The elevator door opened and closed and hit him on his leg. The classic soundtrack "Goodbye Police" sounded again.

The movie ended, Liu Jianmin gave Chen Yongren a funeral with a sad face, and then the subtitles appeared.

The cast and crew appeared: "Director: Chen Tiandu; Producer: Chen Tiandu, Han Sanpin; Screenwriter: Chen Tiandu; Starring: Andy Lau, Chen Tiandu; Starring: Liang Jiahui, Liu Jialing, Chen Huilin, Huang Bo..."

First there was a low voice, followed by a thunderous applause. The entire screening room seemed to be boiling. The audience who came here kept applauding and applauding. Although this movie was not as big as "The Matrix", every 160 minutes was extremely exciting. All the actors in the movie were dedicated to unparalleled performances. Watching the entire movie made them feel excited.

Listening to the deafening applause around them, everyone's smiling faces also attended the highly anticipated premiere. Han Sanpin, who was also applauding, couldn't help but feel a little moved. He glanced at Chen Tiandu and others who were smiling and stood up. The doll was really amazing!

"Third Master, how about it? You haven't lost your reputation." Chen Tian laughed and joked.

Han Sanpin sighed: "I don't have any reputation. You put my name on the production. I was hesitant at the beginning. Now I think about it, I'm still taking advantage of it."

I sighed and was thinking about when Zhongying would find a notebook and then invite a large group of celebrities to celebrate the New Year. No matter how I guess the box office will not be bad.

Feng Xiao didn't speak much after reading it, and others spoke a little while to him, and he was absent-minded. No one knew what he was thinking.

"Damn, it's so good!" Chen Lisen, who watched with his friends in the audience, bulged his hands and spent hundreds of dollars to grab the tickets quickly, but it was really worth it! It was so satisfying to watch... He turned his head to look at several classmates and friends, and praised: "It's really worthy of being called Chen Tiandu! We're right. I think that Hong Kong police and gangster movies cannot be compared with this one at all. Oscar-level is different."

"Hello everyone!"

Several main creators came to the middle of the stage and took the microphone handed by the staff. Chen Tian looked at all the media reporters and ordinary movie fans and greeted him happily. The film was absolutely classic, and the applause and cheers were also exciting. The people who applauded him were all very friendly Chinese people, which felt completely different from the release in the United States.

The fans immediately responded loudly, and everyone stood up excitedly.

Chen Tiandu smiled and said, "Thank you all for coming here to attend this premiere! I am very happy to get everyone's applause, and I am very happy to see everyone like "Infernal Affairs"..." After saying this, he handed the microphone to our king Hua.

Andy Lau was stunned when he opened his first voice, "Hello everyone, am I bad in the movie?"

While there was a burst of applause from the audience, I was stunned by the question. Some answered it was not bad, some answered it as handsome or not, some answered it, some laughed and some shut up and didn't answer.

Andy Lau laughed, "Yes, I know I'm very handsome, and I still speak very badly in Mandarin. But no matter whether it's bad or not in the movie, it's me. Thank you for your support of the movie." The king Andy Lau is unparalleled in the mainland, and even Chen Tian lacks the foundation. He only laughed, and the audience cheered, and the atmosphere returned to its peak again.

The entire crew is busy moving around the world and running publicity. It is useless in North America, but every place you go in Asia, there is cheering. This is a busy week and a fulfilling week. Good news comes every day, which is exciting. I work hard to promote and suppress piracy.

A week has passed and it is also mid-June, and the summer vacation is hot.

The annual US MTV Film and Television Awards ceremony was announced.

This is an international film award established by MTV Global Music TV Network. Unlike academic awards such as the Oscars, it does not judge the films, but relies entirely on the voting of ordinary audiences to determine the ownership of the award. Since the trophy of this award is designed as a must-have popcorn barrel shape for American audiences when watching movies, this award is also called the "Golden Popcorn Award".

This feature, which is completely decided by the movie audience, gives the MTV movie grand prize strong entertainment, creating a warm and relaxing atmosphere that absolutely attracts the attention of the movie fans. Here, it doesn’t seem to matter whether the nominee wins the prize or not. What is important is that the fans have the opportunity to gather with their idols to enjoy the wonderful singing and dancing performances together.

It is particularly worth mentioning that the trophy of the MTV Movie Awards is also entertainment to the end. It is shaped like a bucket of golden popcorn. Popcorn is the most commonly eaten snack for viewers when watching movies. Such a unique design highlights the uniqueness of the MTV Movie Awards.

At the 1995 mtv award ceremony, Chinese kung fu superstar Chenlong won the Lifetime Achievement Award.

This is the choice of the general public!

"The Matrix" is the number one popular movie this summer.

Chen Tiandu originally wanted to take this opportunity to promote "Infernal Affairs", but he failed to succeed. In the end, "The Matrix" won the Best Picture Award, Kate won the Most Popular Actor Award instead of Chen Tiandu, and the two of them also won the traditional Best Kiss Award. The audience's desire to watch their kissing on the spot was also shattered as Chen Tiandu was absent.

This is an elected award ceremony, and no one will offend fans. Chen Tian didn't come to make the award ceremony a little disappointed, and the fans were a little disappointed, but Kate repeatedly explained that he was unable to come back. Everyone knows that he was promoting "Infernal Affairs", which is understandable.

At the same time, the box office in North America was also freshly released.
