Chapter 318 Upper Limit



Eleven o'clock, Jiangcheng Cinema.

The largest screening room was already filled with audiences, who were waiting for the release of "The Devil's Tide", a Chinese film that had been promoted for several months.

After the cinema manager and the president of the Jiangcheng Film Association gave their speeches, it was Lu Ban's turn to speak.

He wasn't wearing any purple suit, just a long trench coat, and took the microphone.

"Good evening, everyone. I'm Lu Ban, the director of The Devil's Tide. Actually, I think many people might be thinking, 'Just finish your speech and start the movie.' So I'll keep it brief."

Lu Ban's words caused the audience to laugh in a friendly manner, and he continued.

"The plot of this movie is very simple. It's just about the people in one world saving themselves when facing a disaster. Although there are fancy special effects and various settings, the ideas embodied in the movie are actually the same as what we see in our daily lives."

He took two steps forward and saw the young people sitting in the front row. These young people were probably about the same age as Birmingham. They were happy to be able to grow up in a peaceful and safe environment without worrying about being attacked by monsters.

But maybe in the future, when alien monsters invade this world, they will take up arms and fight like in the movies.

"That is, human will will not succumb to natural disasters, wild beasts, floods and earthquakes. When these disasters occur, we will help each other and overcome difficulties together. Anything that attempts to threaten civilization will be stopped by us. Maybe one day, the scenes in the movie will appear in reality. At that time, I hope that the ideas presented in this movie can support you to persevere. This is my little wish."

After hearing Lu Ban's words, many people did not think deeply about it. They just thought that Lu Ban said it for everyone's sense of involvement. After all, although there are natural disasters in this world, the things presented in the movie will definitely not appear. They are just fantasies.

"Finally, I hope everyone enjoys the movie. If you like it, you can watch it a few more times. I don't mind."

Amid the audience's laughter, Lu Ban returned the microphone and walked off the stage.

“People always feel that danger is far away from them.”

In the darkness, Feng Yu smiled.

"Death will not come when you are ready."

Lu Ban replied.

"The matter in the Western Pacific has come to a temporary halt, but perhaps there are God's Chosen Ones from other foreign lands visiting this world right now. Perhaps some of them have been to the Wasted City, the Wasteland, the Kingdom of Night, and the Island of Peace. Then, as long as they see my movie, they will be able to recognize my identity and come directly to me."

Lu Ban would not be able to find all the hostile chosen ones who have come to this world by himself, so as long as he made his works known to everyone and anyone who came to this world could see them anywhere, they would soon know Lu Ban's identity and find him.

Although there is no theory that the Chosen Ones will be attracted to each other, Lu Ban's actions will make the Chosen Ones move closer to his position and thus protect others.

The movie has begun, and music starts playing in the familiar dark forest.

Lu Ban did not leave, but went to the box upstairs with Feng Yu and watched the movie carefully.

The cast list was played, but Lu Ban saw tears streaming down Feng Yu's face.

Handing the tissue to her, Lu Ban didn't ask any more questions.

Feng Yu must have had his reasons for becoming a traveler, traveling through endless time and space.

After Feng Yu wiped her tears, the two put on masks and left the box.

At this time, the audience who had just finished watching the premiere had not yet dispersed, and the second wave of moviegoers gathered in the hall. Although it was already past one in the morning, it was like the busiest and most lively prime time, with crowds surging.

Those who had watched the movie gathered together, and whether they knew each other or not, they were discussing the plot enthusiastically.

"The quality of this movie is so high that I even felt like I was watching a movie for the first time. The scenes of the forest and the wolf pack are simply amazing."

"The scene where the mages burned themselves to light the flames was so powerful. I don't know how to describe it. I felt like I saw the true spirit of selfless dedication of human beings. In comparison, the plot where one person saves the world in a crazy and cool way doesn't seem so exciting!"

"I think it's just like what Director Lu said before, although this movie seems to be about multicultural exchange, in fact, its essence is still the spiritual core of our country, fearless of hardships and pioneering and enterprising. This is the first time I have seen such a spiritual embodiment in such a movie, and I have a strong sense of resonance."

"I made a lot of money by watching the premiere today. When I close my eyes now, I can still feel the fortress surrounded by storms and the swaying torches. Don't mention it, it's a bit cold."

"Is this movie really a special effect? ​​Those scenes are too real. If no one had died, I would have thought they were real scenes. No, no, those wolves and the like must be special effects. I feel like these scenes alone are worth the price of the ticket."

"Oh my, my Birmingham, such a lovely little boy..."

"Am I the only one who noticed the acting skills of the actors in this movie? Especially the scenes in the fortress and the small town where dozens of people appeared on the screen at the same time. Those actors are so dedicated. It feels like I am really living in the world of the movie."

“I don’t think there’s anything to spoil about this movie, but there are many details worth noting. I think I’ll have to watch it a second time.”

"Looking at the tough environment in the movie, think about our current situation and cherish what we have now!"

"This movie should have the same worldview as the previous interactive video. There is also the female wizard who appeared before. So, what is the composition of the Kingdom of Darkness, where did the spells come from, and where did these magic tides come from? I think we can study it..."

Many people are discussing this movie, and at the same time, these audiences have not forgotten to rate "The Unholy Tide". It can be seen that in just over ten minutes after the premiere, the number of people who rated "The Unholy Tide" in the ticket purchasing APP quickly exceeded 10,000, and the score was as high as 9.9!

The ratings in the ticket purchasing app are not like some websites where you can give ratings at will. Only people who have bought tickets are qualified to give ratings. These are genuine user reviews.

Usually, good movies will score between eight and nine points, slightly higher than those on rating websites, but a score like 9.9 is rare.

What is even more exaggerated is that there are no works with a score of 10 by default in this app. In other words, even if everyone gives it a score of 10, the score will still be displayed as 9.9!

For many movies, they can get 9.9 points because the quality has reached 9.9 points, but for Lu Ban's "Magic Tide", it got 9.9 points because the upper limit is only 9.9 points!!!
