A movie of more than ninety minutes is not long for this group of film critics.
But if it's a bad movie, even if it's only ten minutes long, you'll definitely want to go to the bathroom immediately.
Zhou Yiyang sat in the first row, surrounded by Yue Shao and his three companions, who were dressed brightly and beautifully, and looked ready to walk onto the red carpet for a show at any time.
From time to time, he turned his head and looked back at the critics' reactions.
Except for a few people who were looking around absentmindedly, most people were watching very seriously.
When some film critics who had similar experiences saw Chen Jing and others being ridiculed at the comic convention, they were still somewhat moved.
When the folk music troupe finally finished their performance, the audience finally burst into prolonged applause.
Even when the end credits appeared, some film critics had not yet recovered from the shock and emotion they felt.
This is the power of folk music.
It is the charm of folk music that many people are not familiar with. When the sound is heard, the blood in the body begins to boil.
This is the national blood engraved in their bodies, which is finally awakened by the long-sleeping chimes.
"Everyone, the movie ends here." Zhou Yiyang walked onto the stage, very satisfied with the critics' reactions. "In the following time, you can ask me, the director, or our leading actors any questions."
At this time, film critics raised their hands very actively. This dark horse movie gave them a great impact.
This youth film is completely different from its predecessors.
Regardless of whether people were looking forward to it or were pessimistic about it before, they are now vaguely looking forward to its box office performance.
Perhaps, it can really impact the current box office record of youth films in this market?
"I heard that the script of this movie was written by you, Mr. Zhou?" The first film critic stood up and directed the question to Zhou Yiyang.
"Yeah," Zhou Yiyang nodded. This was a good point for promotion, and he was very happy that someone had brought it up. "I've always loved folk music. But it's true that fewer and fewer young people these days are exposed to it. So I hope to use this movie to get more people to pay attention to it and to fall in love with it."
"Director Jiang Xiaoliang," the second film critic said, looking at the unassuming new director. "I heard that originally you were just planning to make a short film to enter at the University Student Film Festival? Is that true?"
"Yes," Jiang Xiaoliang admitted. "It was because of this opportunity that I met Mr. Zhou. Later, after discussing it with Mr. Zhou, we decided to make it into a commercial film. I am especially grateful to Mr. Zhou for giving me this opportunity to shoot this film myself."
"Can I ask Moonlight Girls a question? You're all incredibly popular, but you spent months filming a movie that might not be a hit. If you took this world and used it to appear on variety shows or shoot commercials, you'd probably make a lot of money. What do you think?"
The four of them looked at each other, and finally pushed the team leader Lin Xuan'er out to answer the question:
"After reading the script, we loved the story. So when we learned that we could play the roles ourselves, we couldn't wait to join the crew to film. As for opportunities to make money, I believe there will be opportunities in the future. However, such a good script is not something you can come across at any time."
This was naturally the answer Zhou Yiyang and Bai Yangyu had thought of in advance. Predicting these people's questions was like guessing the essay questions in the college entrance examination; they could always guess the right answer.
The interview proceeded in an orderly manner. Judging from the attitudes of these film critics, they should be quite satisfied with "Moonlight Girl".
After the preview, they had to wait until everyone had left before they had a chance to speak.
"I'm so tired." Tang Yue immediately threw away her high heels. For the sake of beauty, she specially wore high heels today, which made her look a little taller than Zhou Yiyang. But the price she paid was that after standing all day, her heels were almost broken. "Brother Yang, our film review should be good this time, right?"
"Who knows?" Zhou Yiyang said without comment.
"Why?" Su Yin looked over in confusion. "I saw them talking and laughing, so I thought they would definitely give good reviews!"
Bai Yangyu shook his head and explained for them, "If only it were that simple. But in reality, at the preview, everyone's just saying polite things. We'll have to wait until they go back and post on Weibo to find out their true thoughts. Some slick film critics will even give specious reviews before the film's official release, only to then offer their full praise afterward."
"This is too clever!" Wang Xingrui thought to herself, "The city dwellers' schemes are really too sophisticated. If we hadn't invited these film critics in the first place, would the negative reviews have been avoided?"
"It's not as simple as you think," Zhou Yiyang stood up. "Without a preview, most viewers would think this movie is weak and won't be good. Besides, we're already in the final promotional period. If word of mouth from the preview is good, it will undoubtedly boost pre-sales."
"Actually," Lin Xuan'er had already reached the door, "I think our movie is pretty good. The word of mouth will definitely be good."
Just as she was about to open the door, Guan Fei suddenly reminded her, "There are many of your fans waiting outside. Prepare a warm smile before going out."
Zhou Yiyang couldn't help but give Guan Fei a thumbs up and said, "Xiao Guan, you are becoming more and more trustworthy in your work."
As expected, when the door opened, there were fans waiting outside for a long time.
