Ye Kongjing stretched slightly and her eyes fell on Su Yin.
The plot was about to reach its climax at this time. She thought about it and swallowed back what she was about to say.
Zhou Yiyang then glanced at Su Yin, raised his eyebrows, and leaned close to Su Yin's ear with a hint of evil amusement, whispering:
"It won't be long before you and Tangtang's interlude begins. How's it going? Are you excited?"
Su Yin coughed, feeling that Zhou Yiyang must have come over and said this on purpose.
She glanced at Zhou Yiyang quietly and said softly:
"Of course, Brother Yang. After all, everyone has listened to the first two songs, and their expectations are probably at their highest. When it's Tangtang and I's turn, we might feel the gap is too big."
After a pause, Su Yin added, "But I'm not that worried. After all, everyone knows the true level of Tangtang and I, so the psychological expectations shouldn't be too high."
"The most important thing is that you wrote this song, Brother Yang. If it doesn't turn out well, people will definitely blame you, and it has nothing to do with me."
Zhou Yiyang chuckled, knowing that Su Yin was right. In the minds of many listeners, songs written and composed by Zhou Yiyang were almost always considered good songs.
So naturally, expectations are extremely high.
If the song they sang really received a mediocre response, netizens would definitely think that Zhou Yiyang had run out of ideas.
…
Ning Mang, who was sitting in the cinema, looked extremely focused, but his old friends next to him were silent at the moment.
On the one hand, they were deeply attracted by the pictures and plot of "The Lotus Lantern" and were completely immersed in it.
On the other hand, I thought about how they had spoken out before watching the movie, all of them thinking it was a poor quality money-making production.
After watching the finished film, I realized how conservative I was. Cartoons aren't just for kids; they can have a lot of meaning.
The quality of this film surpasses almost all films of the same period.
However, they couldn't show too much excitement, otherwise, it would be like slapping themselves in the face. After all, they all looked down on this movie in the beginning.
Ning Mang saw their inner struggles and found them amusing. They were so superficial, judging someone based on the genre of the film.
Just like many people think that science fiction movies are niche and do not deserve high box office, this is all a misunderstanding.
What's more, they are unwilling to believe that this movie has Zhou Yiyang as a box office guarantee.
"How was it?" Ning Mang turned his head slowly, a hint of sarcasm on his lips: "What do you think of this movie?"
Several old classmates rubbed their noses and didn't want to be stubborn anymore:
"It's really good, and the quality is much higher than I expected. I admit that cartoons can also be suitable for adults."
"Yes, we were all so stupid before that we actually thought that the quality of a movie was determined by its category!"
"Indeed, I used to think people who watched cartoons were childish. Now I understand that the truly childish person is actually me!"
Ning Mang smiled, and was quite satisfied that they could admit their mistakes:
"You just need to remember that the quality of the films directed by Zhou Yiyang cannot be bad. This animated film will definitely influence the future development of the film market. Everyone will know that the Spring Festival period is not dominated by family-friendly films. As long as there are good special effects, a good team, and a good plot, whether it is an animation or a science fiction film, it can be successful."
Ning Mang's words sounded like those of a die-hard fan of Zhou Yiyang, but everyone present knew that there was nothing wrong with what he said.
After all, Zhou Yiyang's strength is obvious to all, not to mention how much money Ning Mang made by investing with Zhou Yiyang. They all saw it.
When it comes to real money, they are still quite rational.
Ning Mang raised his head at this time and continued to watch the movie attentively.
The next part almost made him stand up.
If it weren't for the habit he had developed over a long period of time, Ning Mang would have paid close attention to cinema etiquette.
By now Ning Mang has probably stood up, raised his fist and shouted loudly.
There is almost no plot in this section, it is just a simple fighting scene.
However, it was this fight scene that made countless viewers in the cinema excited and felt once again that their ticket prices were worth it.
On the screen, the battle between Chenxiang and Yang Jian is about to break out.
The imaginative images, coupled with the power of money, make everyone feel as if they have fallen into their childhood dreams and feel the charm of special effects.
Compared with the various light pollution-like special effects in Hollywood, the special effects of "The Lotus Lantern" are different.
For example, now, the battle between the two incorporates the characteristics of ink painting. Various moves look freehand and chic, which is a completely Chinese style.
I don’t know how many children who came to the cinema were stunned by the movie. For them, such gorgeous pictures are the most attractive.
However, this is not all. When both of them began to transform and started fighting with their own spirits, the whole scene was taken to a higher level.
Ning Mang kept applauding while watching the movie. He even forgot when was the last time he was so excited about the special effects in a movie theater.
He only knew that Zhou Yiyang was amazing, as he could make an art film lover like him so crazy about a special effects blockbuster.
The students next to Ning Mang could no longer control their emotions and couldn't wait to yell out:
"Damn! This special effect is too strong!"
"I only smell money. No wonder they said 'The Lotus Lantern' had the highest budget of any film released during this year's Spring Festival. I didn't believe it before, thinking it was just an animated film, how could such a high budget be possible? Now that I've seen it, I realize how ignorant I was."
"Is the domestic film industry so developed? Let me tell you, the special effects are even better than those in overseas films! I don't know what others think, but I've already fallen in love with this movie!"
"That's amazing! Even though I never watch cartoons, I actually feel a little teary-eyed right now. Seeing these two guys facing off against each other really excites me!"
"Indeed, more and more movies now rely on piling up star-studded casts to reap good box office success. But looking back at the plot, you'll find it's quite ordinary. If 'The Lotus Lantern' can win the box office championship during this Spring Festival, it will show that our country's film market is becoming more and more mature."
"To be honest, isn't the championship too outrageous? The audience is still limited. I just hope it can stay in the top three."
