Chapter 807 A Little Thing Called First Love
The premiere of the movie was scheduled for the weekend. Lin Fan and Xia Yan led the entire crew to do road shows and promotions for a whole week, and finally, before the premiere of the movie, they received very impressive pre-sale box office data.
Yang Hongxia was overjoyed: "With such pre-sale box office, the midnight data on the premiere day will definitely be very good! After a hit, as long as the subsequent ratings can keep up, our movie will be a success!"
Lin Fan took a look at the pre-sale box office data, "Not bad, a little better than we expected. As for the ratings, Sister Xia, don't worry. I can't guarantee anything else, but in terms of the movie plot, ours will definitely not be worse than the one next door!"
"Why should I be worried about your work?"
Speaking of the one next door, Yang Hongxia remembered a joke: "By the way, Lin Fan, have you heard that when you were doing a roadshow at the Music Plaza before, the one next door mistook your fans for their fans and took them away. When the fans met their artists, oh my, that was an embarrassing scene!"
Lin Fan also heard about this from his assistant Xiao Wan.
Xiao Wan was among the crowd eating and saw the entire process shared by the person involved in the incident.
Yang Hongxia felt amazed when she thought about it: "Where do they get the confidence to take the fans back without asking any more questions?"
Aren’t you worried about identifying the wrong fan and causing embarrassment to both parties?
Aren't you worried that fans will get angry when they find out that the artist over there is not Lin Fan? You know, Lin Fan's fans are famous for their strong fighting power, and this doesn't just refer to online verbal battles and quarrels!
Lin Fan couldn't understand the other person's train of thought: "Forget it, don't worry about others, get ready, it's time to go to the premiere."
It was called the premiere of a movie, but in fact it was just a solo show for Lin Fan and Xia Yan. The two main characters, Zhou Xiang and Lu Bingyang, sat quietly in the corner, acting as invisible people.
Only when Lin Fan or the host cues them will they cooperate and interact with everyone. If they are not called, they will just stay there. Their honesty makes people feel distressed.
However, only Zhou Xiang and Lu Bingyang knew how good it was to cling to the thighs during this period! It was Lin Fan who interacted with the fans, it was Lin Fan who supported the scene, and it was Lin Fan who finally called on the fans to support the movie. As long as they stood by obediently, they could get enough popularity, and the pre-sale box office of the movie also rose sharply!
The real boss leads the game!
…
"In the depths of each of our hearts, there is a person hidden. Every time I think of him,
I feel a little bit heartbroken but we still want to keep him in our hearts
Even today I don't know where he is or what he is doing
But at least I know it was him who made me understand
What is this little thing called first love—"
The lights in the venue dimmed, and amid the sound of clear music and the scene of the male protagonist sticking two funny eyebrows on himself, the voice of the female protagonist's inner monologue spread throughout the entire screening room.
"A Little Thing Called First Love" actually tells a very simple story about a girl with ordinary looks, average academic performance, average sports performance, and even very ordinary looks, who happens to fall in love with the most handsome and best football player in the school.
Then, in order to get the male god's attention, the girl approaches the male god according to various methods recorded in a book called "Nine Ways to Make Him Fall in Love with You". Finally, she works hard to make herself more powerful and more beautiful. This is a story.
Just like Cinderella and Prince Charming in the fairy tale.
It also looks very much like my former ordinary self and the campus idol/goddess that I secretly loved.
The routine of youth films is also very obvious in this movie: Cinderella transforms into Snow White, wins everyone's love, and successfully attracts the attention of the male god.
Unfortunately, by some strange mistake, the male god missed the girl he really liked because of an inexplicable agreement he made with his best friend, “let’s not fall in love with the same person”.
Then he waited silently for nine years, and finally the girl came back and he successfully confessed his love to her.
To be honest, purely in terms of the plot, this movie cannot avoid falling into the routine of youth films. It has a slow pace and no eye-catching highlights. If you are not careful, it can easily become a diary or an art film that is difficult to understand.
This is also the reason why other youth films on the market often have some melodramatic plots - if the movie is not made more melodramatic and heart-wrenching, the director and the leading team are really worried that the audience will not be able to watch it and want to leave after watching halfway, no, even shorter.
Even though the audiences were criticizing the film a lot, if there weren't these melodramatic scenes in the movie, I'm afraid they wouldn't even want to criticize it.
Rather than having no one paying attention, the director and leading actors would rather be scolded by the audience, because at least this proves that there are people watching this movie.
But Lin Fan didn't add any melodramatic plots, but he was still able to keep all the audience firmly in their seats, watching with relish. No one found it boring, no one felt like they couldn't continue watching, and no one left in the middle of the show.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Why is this?
If I have to answer this question, it is probably because, in this movie, the audience can more or less see their own shadows.
For example, the girl and her three friends have interesting and heartwarming interactions: getting caught passing notes in class, taking love quizzes to calculate their love fortunes, following the methods in the "Love Handbook" to capture their male idols, etc.
These things are what almost every girl has done at a certain stage.
Not to mention, the girl deliberately walked past the boy's class in order to get a closer look at him, but she held her head high and looked straight ahead in order to maintain her dignity.
These little details make the audience, especially the female audience, wonder if Lin Fan has gotten into their own heads, otherwise how can he understand girls' hearts so well? In the movie, the girl carefully hides her secret love, but can't help but pay attention to the boy's every move, looking at him with eyes full of admiration, cherishing a button he left behind as if it were a treasure, and cheering because he knows his name...
"A Little Thing Called First Love" perfectly expresses the girl's youthful and ignorant feelings: good moods are all because of you, bad moods also come from you, the more she wants to be close to you, the more she dares not to appear in front of you.
The girl was immersed in the beauty of first love: meeting such a wonderful person like you when I was the most ignorant and innocent, this is probably the luckiest thing in the world.
On the other hand, I also tasted the bitterness of secret love: the whole world knows that I like you, but you are the only one who doesn’t know. This may be the most unfortunate thing in the world.
