Chapter 69 Chapter 69 The premiere
of "The Last Walker" was a hit... The popularity of "The Last Walker" was within expectations.
This science fiction film, which cost hundreds of millions of dollars and was born amid the audience's anxiety, lived up to the reputation of a star-level masterpiece. It did not pull a big lump like other big productions, nor did it deal a heavier blow to domestic science fiction films.
After high pre-sales, the box office rose in a step-by-step manner from the first day of the film's release.
Even though there are many excellent films in this summer vacation, none of them can take the place of "The Last Walker".
Lu Jiao and Chi Wei's mobile phones once again received a bunch of congratulatory messages. Lu Jiao opened Chi Wei's mobile phone and replied to a few of them for him.
[Producer Xu:... Director Chi, you actually replied? 】
There was silence for a long time, and then a message was sent tremblingly. Lu Jiao almost laughed. If she hadn't considered so many people around, she would have laughed out loud in Chi Wei's arms.
【Chi Wei: Not me. 】
She replied in a good mood, and Qin Yi came out with two buckets of popcorn, one chocolate flavor and one original flavor.
It happened that the two of them had time today, so Lu Jiao simply dragged them out to watch a movie. Although they had already watched the sample in advance, the theater next door had just opened an IMAX large-screen theater. It would be a pity not to watch this kind of movie on the big screen. The other two people who were not free sent two strings of ellipsis speechlessly.
【Lu Jiao: It doesn't matter, you two can make an appointment to watch it together later. 】
【Qi Xing: ...】
【Fang Yun'an: ...】
Qin Yi handed the other bucket to Lu Jiao, and passed all the drinks to Chi Wei, "Just out of the oven chocolate popcorn, I feel that this cinema can be open for so long partly because of the taste of popcorn."
Lu Jiao grabbed a handful and put it in his mouth, nodding in agreement.
Today happened to be a rest day, and there were many people waiting in the theater. Lu Jiao scanned the surroundings, there were all kinds of people, there were elementary school students with schoolbags, college students who came in groups, beautifully dressed little girls, and a few old people... But most people were muttering a theme.
"Luckily I managed to grab a seat in the middle in advance. When I just arrived, I took a look and saw that all the tickets were sold out. There was not a single empty seat."
"I told you to buy the tickets earlier! You didn't believe me at the time. Who suddenly called me on the night of the premiere of "The Walking Dead" and asked me to watch a movie together?" The girl opposite pinched her boyfriend's leg without any curiosity.
"The main reason is that I was afraid of being cheated before, so I didn't dare to enter blindly. I didn't expect so many positive reviews."
The star-chasing girls who came in groups nearby chattered, "Star Chart Entertainment is not far away! Let's go there to check in after the movie, maybe we can meet a star."
"Speaking of Star Chart, do you think it's possible that the stars in the company saw that this theater is very close and ran over to watch a movie?"
After saying this, the girls were silent for a moment, and immediately looked around. Even though Lu Jiao and the other three lowered their hat brims in time, they felt the eyes staring at their backs a minute later. Chi Wei calmly grabbed a handful of popcorn and ignored the increasingly scorching eyes behind him.
After the theater broadcast, most of the people in the scene stood up.
"Oh my god, the army is attacking Hall 3."
Someone said this, and Lu Jiao couldn't help laughing.
Soon, a group of people came into Hall 3. Lu Jiao's eyes were always on the backs of the three people, and she gradually calmed down. Just let them find out, as long as they don't disturb me from watching the movie, everything will be fine.
The movie started soon, and at the beginning, there was a fierce fight scene. The female lead He Yunpan's face was too suitable for the big screen, and the audience exclaimed from time to time.
Lu Jiao couldn't help but hold her head high. She spent a lot of money to form a team for the fighting scenes in the whole movie, including various martial arts masters and bodyguards as martial arts instructors. He Yunpan trained his abdominal muscles after filming a movie, and Qin Yi's muscles were even more obvious.
The feeling of watching science fiction movies on the big screen is different. Lu Jiao's eyes were full of surprise. The popcorn next to him was almost cold, but no one took it out.
The audience's exclamations rang out from time to time, especially the scene where the heroine fought with the villain. The two fought wits and courage. The heroine climbed over the wall with one hand and jumped down from a high building. Her body gradually turned into data and disappeared in the virtual world.
A pair of eyes suddenly opened, and a blue light flashed on the VR glasses.
The plot of the whole movie is like taking a big gulp of iced cola in the hot summer. So
cool!
"It was so cool, I wanted to rush into the big screen and fight with the heroine in the middle of the movie!"
"Look at my hands, I kept clenching my fists during the middle of the movie, and then I realized that my palms hurt from the manicure I just did."
"I really want to go out for a run, my watch vibrated several times just now, all because it detected an abnormally excited heart rate and a surge in kidney hormones."
The lights on the scene came on, but the audience around did not leave, but sat in their seats and chatted excitedly.
"Mom, I want to play Sky Eye VR too!"
"Buy it for nothing, do you think I look like a VR?"
The chat between mother and son came from the front, and the person sitting behind Lu Jiao felt the same way: "Damn, if there really is such a VR glasses in reality, I will buy it no matter how much money it costs."
Listening to the discussions around him, Lu Jiao felt better. It was a very happy thing that the film he invested in was well received by the audience. At least it did not disappoint the audience's expectations.
With the cold popcorn, there was still some left in it. Lu Jiao clapped his hands and said, "It's okay, give the rest to Fang Yun'an, he is not picky about food."
The two people next to him agreed.
In just three days, the cumulative box office reached 400 million, and the movie score reached 8.9 points. Lu Jiao saw a short review that said so.
[The best decision this movie made was to release it during the summer vacation. I saw people of all ages coming to the cinema to watch the movie. The youngest was a third-grade elementary school student, and the oldest was a gray-haired old man. The elementary school student immediately sent a heartbreaking message on his watch phone after coming out of the cinema: This movie is so good! ]
Although it is a sci-fi film that has always been obscure, this movie has set off a wave among students. Even if there were animated films at the same time, they were not as popular as "The Walking Dead".
Elementary school students changed their names to the code names in the movie, and their avatars changed very quickly. Various imitations and cards emerged one after another.
And the elderly can also understand the meaning of it, and are moved by the humanistic care and unity in it.
Lead actor He Yunpan gained millions of fans. Fortunately, it was summer vacation, otherwise she would be surrounded by people when she went to school. While gaining fans rapidly, she sent a long paragraph of her own thanks to Lu Jiao and Chi Wei.
Thank you Lu Jiao for choosing her from a group of actors, thank you director Chi Wei for making such a good movie.
Lu Jiao replied: Have a good rest, your star journey has just begun, go out and relax, and continue to make money for me after you come back.
He Yunpan was moved and sent a series of hug emojis.
There were countless red envelopes of all sizes in the crew group, and Lu Jiao also sent several.
Just like all crews that become popular, the crew group has become a group for collecting all kinds of compliments, and all kinds of compliments that make listeners happy are shared everywhere in the group.
Lu Jiao clicked on the film review sent to the group. Just a few days after the release, various film reviews poured out, and this video was the most popular one.
This blogger is a very famous video blogger on the bullet screen station. Unlike other complaining styles, she is better at finding the connotation of the film and television works themselves and her own thoughts on watching movies.
Click on the video, and the first thing you see is the bullet screen full of bullet screens.
[This video will definitely go viral, take a picture! ]
[One million likes for the picture, blogger, you really expressed my thoughts perfectly. 】
Lu Jiao set the bullet screen to only show the upper bullet screen, and then he put his chin on his hand to listen to the blogger's comments.
"First of all, I can happily say that Star Map and Chi Wei did not disappoint the audience's expectations. On this science fiction film answer sheet with a perfect score of 100, they got full marks and answered 20 points of additional questions. After watching this movie in the cinema, I immediately opened the ticket purchase software and bought a second viewing ticket. This is the video I rushed out overnight after the second viewing. Please forgive me for any problems such as grammatical errors."
"…The story of this movie is actually very simple. It's about a guy who wins first place in a game in the VR world and has a very good life in the real world. To sum it up, it feels like that, but why did this movie get so many good reviews? Before the movie was released, Star Map was promoted very vigorously. Some audiences who paid attention to details knew the main plot of the movie, but this doubt was not solved until after watching the movie. My friend group exploded that day, and they slapped their thighs and said, "Oh my god, if this movie doesn't become popular, I'm going to run naked!"
[Funny, then I won't see my friends running naked. 】
"Because this movie is very exciting. Its structure is similar to the current online literature system. Every exciting point is set just right, without any sudden father-flavored preaching. In addition, He Yunpan's performance as the heroine is so good. The calm madman is matched with Chi Wei's cold lens. I think many shots are too cool, whether it is the bird's-eye view from a high-rise building, the flipping space, or the weapon deformation after the heroine raises her hand. If it wasn't for the wrong secret shooting, my camera might have exploded."
"…but that doesn't mean this movie is a pure happy story, it just puts the complicated plot deep inside. When you watch it, you will be worried about the plot. After watching it, when you recall the plot, you find that some of the plots were arranged in this way, and the high-level game behind it criticizes the cyberpunk world...If possible, I will watch this movie three or four times." "
Finally, I would like to mention one more thing. The VR glasses in the movie are so cool. Didn't you really consider adding a peripheral to the star map?"
The comments below are also very active. As soon as Lu Jiao refreshes, dozens of comments appear.
[The blogger said it very well, but I think the reason why the final plot was arranged like that is because of the character of the heroine. Although the heroine is very strong and has personal charm in the plot, don't forget that she chose to participate in the competition for the prize money from the beginning. The character is complicated, and you can't expect a person to be perfect...]
[My head hurts, I feel like I need to grow a brain. When a vulgar person like me watches a movie, I only think: The heroine is so handsome! She even has muscles! This lightsaber is so handsome! The fighting scenes are so handsome! The VR glasses are so handsome!]
[There are too few science fiction films with good Chinese faces. I originally wanted to support science fiction films, but this movie saved me. After watching it, I frantically read the online reviews. It is so rare to have a movie with both a plot and connotation. 】
【To be honest, this movie is strictly soft science fiction. Although it also involves some terms such as space conversion, it is more about virtual games. 】
【I'll tell you a piece of news that still shocks me. I went to see the movie with a friend who specializes in virtual games. After watching the movie, he told me that the terms about VR glasses in the plot of the movie are real, and you can even build a rough VR glasses based on those terms... Who can understand my shock at that time? 】
【It's so funny, your news is late. Someone asked a certain virtual reality celebrity this morning, and the celebrity replied that all the data shown in the movie are real. Now he is worried that the people hired by the movie are too professional and leaked the secrets. He even tagged the movie and asked if the plot needs to be edited. hhhhh】
Lu Jiao raised his eyebrows and clicked on the homepage of the celebrity they pointed out.
As soon as he clicked in, he saw a new message sent a minute ago.
【…I haven't been in the circle for too long and I am ignorant. Star Map doesn't need to edit the plot. 】
A commenter asked in confusion.
【Why? I am also a computer professional. Some of the data in it are very detailed. If someone gets to know the news, it will cause losses. 】
【This matter is not Star Map's fault. At most, Star Map is too serious about filming movies. The people they invited are very professional. They just need to change some confidential content. It's just that the employee who leaked the information is unfortunate...】
The blogger just replied to this reply, "Don't worry about employees being involved in confidential information... because these contents were posted with Star Map's consent. 】
【What do you mean? 】
【Reply: Because these VR glasses data are all provided by Star Map. They are also developing VR glasses themselves. The development press conference will be held the day after tomorrow. 】
