Chapter 226: A Lesson
Hu Xiaoxiao walked to the poster of "God of Cars" and his eyes fell on the section about the main creative team of the film.
Directed by Zhang Huai.
Screenwriter Zhang Huai.
This movie has actually been released.
She walked to the ticket office and asked the ticket seller, "How long has 'God of Cars' been in theaters? How's the box office?"
The ticket seller replied, "It's been running for nearly a month now and is almost ready to be released. A lot of people are watching it, so the box office is okay, otherwise it wouldn't have been running for so long."
Some movies that are not easy to sell are taken off the shelves in a day or two. But the fact that "God of Speed" has been showing for so long shows that its box office performance is very impressive.
Hu Xiaoxiao took out some money from her bag and said, "Buy me a ticket for 'God of Cars'. Thank you."
After taking the money, the ticket seller gave Hu Xiaoxiao a ticket for the next show of "God of Cars", which was exactly five minutes away.
Hu Xiaoxiao calculated the time and bought a ticket for the next showing of "The New Fist of Fury", then entered the cinema and found the screening room for "The God of Speed".
As the story of "God of Cars" unfolded on the big screen, Hu Xiaoxiao's expression became more and more solemn.
The story is nothing new. The male protagonist is a rich second-generation whose father died in an accident. He has good driving skills and his dream is to become a racing driver.
Because his father's death was too strange, he met the heroine while investigating the cause of his father's death.
In the middle, it was discovered that his father was killed by gangs, and the male protagonist fought with the gangs in order to seek revenge.
The story is interspersed with a lot of racing plots, including the hero's showmanship at the beginning of the story, his romantic showmanship when picking up girls, and then the thrilling scenes of being chased by gangsters, driving a sports car in various difficult ways, holding the steering wheel with one hand and shooting with the other, and crossing obstacles one after another.
Many of the racing designs in the film were the result of discussions between Hu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Huai, and many were also the result of Hu Xiaoxiao's own racing experience. Not to mention the various difficult maneuvers performed by the cars in front of the camera, many of which were demonstrated by Hu Xiaoxiao to Zhang Huai at the racetrack.
Now Zhang Huai directly took her idea away?
Not even a greeting?
Hu Xiaoxiao felt his fists stiffen as he watched the audience in the screening room admire the leading actor's showmanship in the movie.
In the movie, when the male protagonist is racing, there are not many shots of his face, whether it is a long shot or a close-up, especially when he is doing difficult moves. Hu Xiaoxiao can tell at a glance that it is done by a stand-in.
In many dangerous shots, the actor's face cannot be seen at all, which shows that the actor's driving skills are not good at all. He relies entirely on a stand-in and shooting techniques to show his skills.
Hu Xiaoxiao also paid attention to the heroine in the movie. The heroine was a vase-like character. Although her face was not particularly beautiful, she had a very good figure.
Besides the thrilling car racing scenes, the film also features the erotic scenes between the male and female protagonists. In this film, the female protagonist puts in far more effort than the male protagonist. A few more nude scenes and this film would have been rated as pornographic.
After all, all the racing scenes were performed by stand-ins, while the heroine performed many of the erotic shots herself, which was very exciting to watch.
Luxury cars and beautiful women, the novel subject matter is refreshing, no wonder the movie is so good at the box office.
After coming out of the cinema, Hu Xiaoxiao was still angry.
She picked up the cell phone and wanted to call Zhang Huai to give him a beating, but in the end she put the cell phone back into her bag.
When Zhang Huai stole her idea, there was no third person present, and there was no signed contract. Even if the incident that day became a big deal, it would have no effect other than making people laugh at her.
Perhaps this is the reason why Zhang Huai dared to plagiarize so unscrupulously.
No wonder I didn’t dare to call her or return her call.
Hu Xiaoxiao was so angry that he laughed.
She had generously shared her racing experiences and camera-friendly moves with Zhang Huai, initially taking it lightly, just chatting about it for fun. Whether it was Zhang Huai or anyone else, as long as they got along, she could have a great time chatting. When filming The Bund, Xia Lu had several racing scenes, and she had designed them.
If Zhang Huai didn't like her as the lead and didn't want her to participate, he could just tell her directly. She wasn't a stingy person. The heroine in the movie "God of Cars" had so many passionate scenes, and she wouldn't act in it after reading the script.
You can just tell her directly and openly. She is not a stingy person. Just treat it as a friend. Why do you have to do these sneaky tricks?
Rather than being angry that his ideas were plagiarized, Hu Xiaoxiao was more angry that he was treated as a villain and was being guarded against.
Zhang Huai himself was a villain, which made her look like a villain too. What bad luck!
She was taught a lesson before she even entered the film industry.
Hu Xiaoxiao was so angry that he ate a whole fried chicken and a plate of fried chicken wings at the fried chicken shop next to the cinema, and drank a large glass of carrot juice before he calmed down.
At this time, "The New Fist of Fury" was about to be released, and Hu Xiaoxiao returned to the cinema again to watch "The New Fist of Fury".
The movie attracted Hu Xiaoxiao's attention from the very beginning.
The plot is very smooth and the shooting technique is very special. Mingxu's handsome face has reached a new level of handsomeness on the big screen.
Mingxu's martial arts are even more beautiful. With his physique and handsome face, watching his fighting scenes is simply a pleasure.
No wonder the box office is so high and the theaters are always packed. Even if you look at it with an extremely picky eye, you can't find anything wrong with this movie. On the contrary, the more you appreciate it, the more easily you will be attracted, and you will watch it to the end without realizing it.
First-class production team and first-class actors.
Mingxu made the right choice by taking this path.
After Hu Xiaoxiao walked out of the cinema, he couldn't wait to call Mingxu to congratulate him.
On the other end of the phone, Mingxu was still on the set. When he received Hu Xiaoxiao's call, he immediately went to the side to listen. Hearing Hu Xiaoxiao's constant praise, he smiled happily.
"I also feel that I made the right choice to join the film industry. Not only do I enjoy filming, but I also enjoy eating. Every day after work, the director even prepares delicious food for me. When you watch the movie, have you noticed that my figure has improved? My lines are more beautiful? It's all the result of training. Not only did the director praise me for being born for this job, but my boss also said that my martial arts are beautiful and suitable for the big screen, and he will promote me as a kung fu prince. The boss rushed to start a new movie for me the day after "The New Fist of Fury" was released. I am currently filming a kung fu movie."
Mingxu spoke excitedly on the phone about his recent happy event.
As for whether filming a movie is easy or not, there is no need to tell my friends about the pain here and there in my body.
Of course you should talk about happy things with your good friends, but forget about things that may make them worry.
Although Hu Xiaoxiao didn't know how much hardship Mingxu had endured while filming, but from the cheerfulness in his words, he knew that he was very happy and satisfied with his current life.
"By the way, Xiaoxiao, there's something I wanted to tell you after it's confirmed, but since you called, I'll tell you in advance." Mingxu said, "Haven't you been looking for an agent? I know someone who I think is good and reliable. If you're interested, I can set you up with him."
