Chapter 588: So sour(1/2)

The next day, Lin Chaoyang and his wife appeared in the Capital Cinema again, but this time they were not for watching a movie.

Instead, it supports the roadshow of "The Battle of Red Cliff".

Now the movie has premiered, but it has not yet formed a promotional habit of roadshows like Xiangjiang, the United States and other places. Lin's Pictures has set an invisible Chinese precedent.

The roadshow of "The Battle of Red Cliff" started in Guangzhou two days before its release, and then the troops were divided into two groups, heading north one by one, passing through major cities.

Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year. Xie Jin brought several main actors from "The Battle of Red Cliff" to the Capital Cinema for a roadshow.

The couple was startled when they walked to the entrance of the cinema. They saw that the rest hall of the cinema was already blocked, and more people could only stand outside the cinema because they could not squeeze into the rest hall.

From the perspective of the couple, people's heads were moved and they were rubbing each other. The temple fairs during the New Year were probably not as lively as the current Capital Cinema.

The couple noticed that many people were holding posters of Chow Yun-fat and Andy Lau in their hands.

"These fans are really crazy!" Tao Yushu said.

Lin Chaoyang joked, "Isn't this the effect you want?"

"The Battle of Red Cliff" is a historical war blockbuster, and it is limited to the casting of history. After all, it is a commercial film with huge investment, and it is impossible not to use stars.

For example, the idol-level figure Zhao Yun used Andy Lau, and the treacherous hero Cao Cao used Chow Yun-fat.

There are also some less important supporting roles and supporting actors, and many Hong Kong stars have also been used.

On the contrary, the two main characters Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu are still using mainland actors. At this point, it is impossible to say that Tao Yushu has no selfish intentions.

If you have the conditions, there is nothing wrong with praising your own people.

The entrance of the Capital Cinema was surrounded by enthusiastic fans. Lin Chaoyang did not rush to find a way to enter the cinema, but instead started chatting with the girls standing on the outermost.

I learned that several people were high school students and came here at noon, but it was still late. It is said that some people have run into the cinema since the morning just to meet their idol Andy Lau.

The roadshow starts at 3 pm, and Lin Chaoyang glances at his watch.

There are so many people in the cinema, and they squat in the rest hall for six or seven hours. I'm afraid it's inconvenient to go to the toilet.

The charm of idols is so great!

While chatting, many fans gathered at the entrance of the Capital Cinema. Some wrote slogans, some held banners, and many others started singing.

"How to face the days I have walked together now, and now the scene of me walking alone is very lively, exuding a sense of fanaticism.

Because there are too many people overflowing, the traffic on Chang'an Street has begun to affect, and the police are maintaining order.

"What an exaggeration!" the couple sighed.

They have never seen the star-chasers in Xiangjiang, but their scale is far from comparable to that in the mainland. Today, at least 2,000 star-chasing fans came.

At around 2:30 pm, a black extended Lincoln sedan was parked in front of the Capital Cinema. When Andy Lau, in a white suit, got out of the car, Zhao Yun, who was wearing a silver gun and a silver armor, appeared.

The scene suddenly lost control. Fans these days don’t tell you any politeness or order. Fans screamed,

Flocking towards the stars.

Although the police comrades present were already prepared, they were still affected by the fan group.

A group of celebrities suffered. Among the several celebrities in Xiangjiang, Andy Lau has the most fans and has received the most care.

My hairstyle was messy, I had no buttons left in my white clothes, and I had my leather shoes stepped on for many feet.

Fortunately, the fans are just excited, not really crazy.

After the initial blood surge, under the maintenance of order by the police comrades, a group of celebrities finally walked into the Capital Cinema. Lin Chaoyang and his wife took a ride and walked into the cinema together.

After entering the cinema, the stars were still scared.

Because it was not time yet, everyone was settled in the theater office first.

Tao Yushu first gave everyone some condolences and sent a circle of red envelopes.

"Thank you Mrs. Lin!"

"Thank you Mrs. Lin!"

I saw several mainland actors such as Xiangjiang stars beinghaved in front of Tao Yushu with respect and were very magical.

Although they did not discriminate in the crew during filming, there was indeed an invisible barrier between Hong Kong stars and mainland actors, and a clear gap could be felt.

While Tao Yushu was communicating with the actors, Lin Chaoyang was also chatting with Xie Jin.

I haven't seen each other for more than a year, and Xie Jin has obviously become much older.

"The Battle of Red Cliff" is a film he wanted to shoot since the 1950s. After more than 30 years of ups and downs, he finally realized this dream with the support of Lin Chaoyang and his wife.

He worked hard for this film, and worked diligently for more than two years, and did not dare to slack off.

Even last year, his son Ah San died, which was only three days later, so he forced himself to return to the crew with a grief.

The crew of thousands of people stopped working for a day and only cost a few dollars. He dared not and could not delay it.

Now that the movie is released, Xie Jin has put down his burden, and the only thing he is worried about is the box office.

Investments that created the history of Chinese films, once they made losses, he felt that he had no shame to meet Lin Chaoyang and his wife.

The project was established in "The Battle of Red Cliff" largely due to his relationship with Lin Chaoyang.

"The film was well shot. You have done it well enough. The box office should not be too bad. At least it will be no problem to make a profit." Lin Chaoyang comforted.

"The Battle of Red Cliff" has only been released for a day, and everything is still unclear, and Lin Chaoyang dares not say anything to death.

But he has watched the movie, and Xie Jin's techniques are obviously not novel enough compared to the fifth generation director. However, the most important thing about the movie is storytelling ability, which is actually Xie Jin's strength.

"The Battle of Red Cliff" is huge, and this time Xie Jin did not focus on personal expression as he used to film.

The concept of Xiangjiang screenwriter, photography and martial arts guidance has been adopted, making the film effect quite ornamental.

When Chinese people watch the Battle of Red Cliff, they naturally stand on Sun and Liu's side. At the end of the movie, Cao Cao returned with a defeat, which is also very consistent with the joyful viewing atmosphere.

After a while of chatting, the roadshow began.

The screening room was crowded with people, and the main creators came to the screening room to interact with the audience, and the scene was lively.

After the movie was screened, the main creators listened to the audience's viewing experience, mostly because of the positive reviews.

Some viewers prefer historical details, comment on the costumes, weapons, warship structures and marching formations of the characters in the film, and praise the crew's conscientiousness and meticulousness.

The script of "Battle of Red Cliff" is mainly based on "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which can be seen from Zhao Yun's outfit at the beginning of the movie, but based on the play, Xie Jin added a lot of historical real details.

The whole movie looks not only full of the excitement of the Romance, but also has a bit of the courage to restore history.

Some viewers like the performances of actors, Zhuge Liang's verbal battles with scholars, Zhou Yu's romantic conversation, and Cao Cao's domineering spirit. They praised the actors all over.

Even some supporting roles in the film are outstanding, such as Andy Lau's Zhao Yun, who appeared three times in total, and lasted less than 10 minutes, but left a deep impression on the audience.

There is also the epic demeanor of the audience who loves movies. The film lasts 150 minutes, which is longer than most movies today, but there is no sense of boredom at all.

The war scenes are grand, the martial arts movements are wonderful, and the scenes in the key plots, borrowing arrows from straw boats, and burning Red Cliffs are highly restored.

Especially in order to burn the Red Cliff in the end, Xie Jin mobilized a division's troops.

The grandeur and tragic battle in history reproduces the grandeur and tragic nature of this famous battle in history. Although it is far from perfect, the visual effect is still shocking, making many viewers feel goosebumps all over their eyes.

The roadshow ends, and the main creators will also accept interviews from reporters.

In the evening, Tao Yushu held a banquet at the Yanjing Hotel and invited the crew to have a meal.

The roadshow promotion of "Battle of Red Cliff" is a protracted war. Today, the publicity ends. Another group of people will go to Xiangjiang and to Southeast Asian countries. Xie Jin and his group will fly to Wandao, Japan, and South Korea tomorrow.

publicity.

"Thank you all!"

At the end of the banquet, Tao Yushu toasted everyone with a glass of wine, and everyone quickly stood up to give it back.

The next day, news about the release and roadshow of "The Battle of Red Cliff" appeared on the pages of major newspapers and magazines in Yanjing.

Even Yanjing TV has reported that it has gradually formed a strong sense of public opinion.

When we were having dinner at Du's house, the atmosphere was warm. This year, Du Feng took Chen Lan home. His waist was straighter than Hai Rui. Tao Yumo responded alone, and his back looked a little bleak.

My uncle Du Ruolin called Tao Yushu to her and asked her, "I heard that your movie was well made?"

Du Ruolin doesn't care about ordinary movies, so Tao Yushu naturally knows which movie he is asking about.

Although "The Battle of Red Cliff" is not as important as major themes, it is also a topic that is concerned about above.

"Don't you know if you go and take a look?" Tao Yushu said with a chuckling.

"It seems that I am very confident. After hearing what you said, I really have to see if I have time!"

"You'd better call more old comrades, just treat it as an advertisement for us," said Tao Yushu.

At this time, Du Feng ran over to join in the fun, "Dad, my sister's company films are serious and good. You should call for a place to encourage you."

When we are getting married, Du Feng's status in his old father has improved, but it is extremely limited.

"Play the piano randomly! What do you know!"

After being scolded, Du Feng returned to his circle with a look of surprise.

The happy party ended and the short holiday ended. Early in the fourth day of the lunar month, a large army of bicycles on Chang'an Street reappeared, all of whom were rushing to go to work.

Early in the morning, Tao Yushu was calling to communicate with Xiangjiang's subordinates.
