July 9, Saturday Sun Zhong made a second date with his blind date Chen Lan. After a barbecue, they had a good chat. Since it was still early, he suggested going to the movies.

"Are there any good movies recently?"

Chen Lan is a doctor. She is usually very busy with work. She is not very interested in TV dramas, but she doesn’t know much about movies.

"Let's watch 'Wushuang', a movie starring Wei Yang. The trailer looks pretty good, it's a crime film."

Sun Zhong made the recommendation enthusiastically. He is a movie buff and is quite familiar with the recently released movies. In order to prepare for this date, he even did some homework in advance.

Among them, "Wushuang" is a movie that he personally wants to watch and highly recommends.

The quality and reputation are guaranteed, and Wei Yang and Fan Xiaopang are also stars that the public cares about, so they are very popular to talk about. In comparison, "Cold War 2" is more complicated, with many metaphors, which makes it easy for ordinary audiences to not understand.

"So you like Wei Yang?"

Chen Lan looked at Sun Zhong with a smile. The latter was about to nod, but decided it was better to be safe.

"It's OK. I think he makes good movies. I usually have limited knowledge of the entertainment industry."

Chen Lan nodded, and then suddenly said, "I just don't like him. He's such a jerk."

Sun Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he did not act impulsively just now.

As an artist with a lot of female fans, Wei Yang has many girls who like to admire him online and offline. So when many boys talk about Wei Yang, their first thought is to pretend to be a fan and use this as a way to build relationships with girls.

As one of the most popular artists nowadays, Wei Yang has enough topics and works that even people who don’t know much about the entertainment industry can talk about him.

Sun Zhong had a blind date with a fan of Wei Yang before. The two of them initially broke the ice by talking about the then popular TV series "Nirvana in Fire" and gossip about Wei Yang, but later they failed to agree on the betrothal gift and the relationship ended in failure.

However, it was also because of her that Sun Zhong vaguely realized that there was something wrong with Chen Lan's attitude towards Wei Yang.

Sure enough, I really have a connection with people named Wei. Last time I met a fan, and this time I met a black fan.

Although Sun Zhong has a lot of good feelings towards Boss Wei, and even has a little admiration for his experience of starting from scratch, compared with his own major life events, the "idol" can be discarded.

"Yes, he is a very talented person, but unfortunately his personal ethics and character are not good."

The tone suddenly changed, and Sun Zhong made a few casual remarks and recommended other movies.

The homework was not in vain, as he knew all the movies showing in this cinema and at this time slot today.

There was no way. Chen Lan's appearance met his standards for a mate very well. She had a baby face, a sweet voice, and a pair of long legs. Her other qualities were also good, so Sun Zhong started to lick her unconsciously.

Chen Lan is not interested in "Cold War 2".

As Sun Zhong expected, she was busy with work and preferred movies that did not require much thinking to relax and entertain herself.

"Big Fish and Begonia" was disliked for being an animation.

Sun Zhong, who had long been accustomed to it, was too lazy to explain that anime and cartoons were different. Moreover, he read the preview reviews of this movie and knew that it was a tragic and depressing subject, so he decisively passed it.

"How about watching a romantic movie, 'So Young, So You Are Still Here', starring Wu and Shuangzi?"

Sun Zhong didn't want to watch this movie. As soon as he saw the cast and the synopsis, he knew it was either a bad movie or a crazy melodrama.

But there are really no other movies, and girls generally do prefer to watch movies with such romantic themes.

"Don't watch this. The Wu guy is not a good guy. Didn't you watch the news? The Canadian sniper."

When it comes to Wei Yang, Chen Lan at most dislikes him, but as for Wu Moumou, she has an undisguised disgust for him.

Just last month, someone broke the news that Wu had an appointment for that person, and released photos and audio of someone suspected to be Wu in bed.

Afterwards, a large amount of information about Wu's love dates and flirting was posted online. The evidence included secretly taken photos and chat records, covering a period of time that even included his time in South Korea.

But to be honest, some of these revelations are indeed fabricated to smear and attract attention.

Wu's team seized on this point, and considering that none of the revelations had been confirmed, they overcame the difficulties with the support of the capital and fans behind them.

However, Wu's popularity and reputation also suffered a severe blow, and "Canadian Cannon King" became a popular Internet meme.

His reputation and personality collapsed, but this also helped Boss Wei to a certain extent.

This is what Chen Lan thinks. She thinks that Wu is a pretentious person. He is a playboy himself, but he also tries to create a clean big boy persona. What's more, not only does he make arrangements for sex, but he may also be involved in deceiving his fans into sleeping with him. It's simply disgusting.

Although Wei Yang is not a good person, at least he is open about his scumbagism. No matter how many people he has his feet on, at least he doesn't target ordinary people and his fans.

So people are determined by comparison!

In the past two years, with the fall of many good men in the entertainment industry, or the collapse of the positive personalities of idols and top stars, the evaluation of Boss Wei has continued to rise.

No one hates being deceived. When the halo filter is broken, the favorability towards Boss Wei, who is still honest, increases.

Moreover, except for Boss Wei, no one else knows that this is just Wu Moumou's trial, and he will make a big contribution later, which may be able to raise Boss Wei to the ranks of good men...

Sun Zhong was already quite happy when Chen Lan expressed her disdain for Boss Wei before.

Most men don't like their partners to have a crush on another man, which does not conflict with Sun Zhong's good impression of Wei Yang.

Now that he saw that Chen Lan hated Wu, whom he disliked, Sun Zhong was even happier. This was called a tacit understanding, a perfect match.

But after the joy, there is still a problem that needs to be solved, which is what movie to watch.

Chen Lan made her choice and pointed at the gorgeous poster: "Isn't there also "Legend of the Gods"? How about this?"

Sun Zhong was in a dilemma. As a senior movie fan, he had always been very distrustful of the so-called domestic fantasy blockbusters. Before coming, he had specially read the reviews of the first wave of audiences, and he was even more pessimistic about this movie.

Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend "So Young" without mentioning this movie.

The former at least has the advantage of subject matter, which is suitable for audiences like them who are in the rising period of ambiguity, while the latter is probably a waste of ticket money.

"Okay, let's watch this, there are a lot of celebrities."

Although he lamented in his heart, the purpose of this trip was not just to watch a movie. Chen Lan's wishes came first.

The two bought tickets and prepared drinks and popcorn. They entered the theater. There were enough people there, so they found a seat and sat down. Chen Lan even took out her cell phone to take pictures.

Sun Zhong kept this in mind and looked to see if there were any dating elements in Chen Lan’s Moments posted that night. If so, the matter would be half settled.

At the beginning of the movie, although Sun Zhong was not optimistic about the film, he still spent money on it and gave it a certain respect.

However, after reading only the beginning, he couldn't hold it anymore! He could understand that the architecture and clothing of the Shang Dynasty were difficult to restore and study, but the strong flavor of the Western Middle Ages was too strong.

Roman Orthodoxy is in Chaoge! ?

King Zhou and Daji are dressed in fancy clothes and live in a castle that is either from the Magic Fairy Castle or the Lord of the Rings. The former enjoys wine and meat, while the latter eats people every day? That's right, Daji doesn't even act. She is directly set as a nine-tailed fox in the background. She eats people every day. King Zhou not only knows this, but also discusses with her whether she has a good appetite.

Then the background is introduced. The Shang Dynasty where the two people lived was extremely powerful, and King Zhou was ambitious and wanted to unify the world.

That's fine, but what's outrageous is that in order to show the power of the Shang Dynasty, a spaceship flying in the sky appeared in the picture? !

Sun Zhong: “…”

I regretted it. I was too unprincipled for a woman. I should have insisted just now.

What a crappy movie I just picked randomly. Does Sun Zhong think his taste is that bad?

The movie continues, telling how King Zhou slaughtered people of all races. Then the male protagonist "Lei" appears, ready to enforce justice, assassinate King Zhou, and rescue the people who have been slaughtered and enslaved.

At this time, Sun Zhong and Chen Lan were no longer paying attention to the movie, because a big brother walked out cursing.

"What a fucking movie!"

Because they were quite close to the corridor, Sun Zhong heard the complaint and looked at Chen Lan, who also heard it.

After all, it was part of the dating process, and proposing to leave would easily cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so the two could only continue to endure it.

The following plot is that the protagonist Lei makes a big fuss in Chaoge in order to save people, fights against King Zhou and Daji, and then Jiang Ziya is involved, and it becomes a chaotic fight.

There's not much to say about the plot of this kind of scene. The most important thing is that the special effects and costumes and props are extremely poorly done, with a strong sense of copycat style.

In the end, Jiang Ziya and his companions escaped, and then received a hint that in order to defeat King Zhou and Daji, they would need the Sword of Light and the Body of the Golden Dragon.

Sun Zhong couldn't bear to watch this strong sense of The Lord of the Rings. He felt itchy all over, and Chen Lan was also restless.

At this moment, the two heard a strange sound.

Glancing to the side, I saw a couple a few seats away who probably couldn't stand it anymore and just started biting each other. As for whether they took any further action, I couldn't see clearly because the boy was blocking my view.

Sun Zhong and his friends were not the only ones who noticed the situation. Someone took the lead, and soon another couple in front of their right also hugged each other.

Sun Zhong felt itchy as he watched the movie and completely stopped caring about it. He began to move his hand towards Chen Lan.

Blind dates are not dating, the progress should be faster and there is no need to be shy. If you can make an appointment to have dinner or watch a movie the second time, it means there is a trend of further development.

Sun Zhong was not a timid rookie. He had been so polite before because he really liked Chen Lan and was afraid of scaring her away.

Now that the atmosphere was right, he thought about trying it out, so he slowly reached out his hand and calmly placed it on Chen Lan's hand. The latter seemed startled and struggled slightly, but Sun Zhong exerted a little force and she couldn't break free, so she obediently let him hold her hand.

After playing with the jade hand for a while, Sun Zhong wanted to take advantage of it and started to test it further.

In short, Sun Zhong didn’t remember what the movie ended like, but he was still thinking about the taste of Chen Lan’s lipstick and mouthwash the next day.

Sun Zhong also suddenly realized something.

When going to the movies on a date, you should not look for good movies, but bad ones. People's attention is not on the movie, and it is easier to do something naughty.

After reluctantly sending Chen Lan home, Sun Zhong turned around and found a nearby cinema and bought a ticket for "Wushuang".

Although the previous movie did not lose money and even made a lot of money, "Legend of the Gods" was so bad that Sun Zhong was afraid of having nightmares when he went home at night if he didn't find a good movie to refresh his eyes.

As it was a little late, there were not enough screenings of "Wushuang" scheduled, so Sun Zhong had to wait for half an hour at the cinema before he finally saw "Wushuang" that he had been longing for.

Compared to the exaggeration of "Legend of the Gods", the plot of "Wushuang" is much simpler.

A young man named Li Wen was arrested in Southeast Asia for being involved in a counterfeit money case. He was then extradited back to China and interrogated by policewoman Yu Nan. However, due to various concerns, Li Wen was unwilling to cooperate with the police.

At this time, Li Wen's confidante, the painter Ruan Wen, came to rescue him and broke Li Wen's psychological defenses.

The police used this as a breakthrough, and after negotiations between the two sides, Li Wen was willing to take the blame and give out the counterfeit money gang in exchange for some lenient conditions.

Then Li Wen began to explain, and the plot recalled how a group of "painters" played by Wang Zhiwen made counterfeit money.

Many people like to watch crime films, and they often identify themselves with the villains rather than the police or positive characters.

The gangsters and criminals in some police and gangster films are very popular and charming. There are many factors involved, including human nature and society.

We won’t discuss these high-level topics here. You just need to understand one thing: the rise of criminals in this type of subject matter is definitely one of the climaxes of the movie.

Especially since the villains in "Wushuang" don't seem to be that bad, and the early stages are mainly based on technology, it is easier to arouse the audience's... "sense of substitution".

If you don’t dare to break the law in real life, can’t you just enjoy watching the fun in a movie?

Especially printing money, who hasn't had such a dream? And it's not even the country's own currency, and it doesn't even cheat its own people, so there's no guilt involved.

In addition, the plot rhythm is well arranged and interlocking, so the audience is happy when watching the counterfeit money gang in "Wushuang" making banknotes.

Sun Zhong was the same. He felt the joy of a successful business venture and wanted to sell all the counterfeit money so that he could cheat the Americans and divide the money among the gang.

But after the climax, the plot took a sharp turn for the worse.

Accidents occurred frequently, including the gunfight with Southeast Asian warlords and the final internal strife, and the team fell apart, with some dying and some fleeing.

The audience sighed and generally felt that the subsequent plot was about finding a way to catch the escaped painter. It was estimated that Li Wen also had a lot of credit, and there might even be a confrontation between master and disciple.

Audiences who have watched too many Hong Kong films can already imagine the ending where the painter kills Ruan Wen, and Li Wen kills the painter in anger, or they both die.

It is a bit old-fashioned, but the counterfeit money material is really well shot. Many viewers want to get a group of people to get color-changing ink and acid-free paper.

If Sun Zhong had not read the film reviews beforehand, he would probably have had similar thoughts.

But now he knows that "Wushuang" has a big reversal. Although he did not watch it carefully for fear of spoilers, but based on his experience, he estimated that Li Wen and Ruan Wen might not be that simple.

Ruan Wen is a painter by profession!

He guessed that Li Wen was just taking the blame for his sweetheart, and Ruan Wen was the real Li Wen.

Then the subsequent plot slapped him in the face, and when the reversal ended and the truth came out, there were constant shouts of "Wow" in the theater.

"Li Wen" is fake, there is no painter at all, or rather he is the painter, and Ruan Wen is also an impostor. The two of them deceived the police and all the audience.

After seeing this shocking reversal, Sun Zhong’s eyes, which had been ruined by “The Legend of the Gods”, finally came back to life.

“This is a movie!”

When the movie ended and the audience dispersed, Sun Zhong was still a little emotional and checked the Douban ratings.

"Legend of the Gods": One star I don't even want to type and criticize it, I just want to warn everyone not to waste their money.

"Wushuang": five stars

While walking, Sun Zhong wrote a two-hundred-word favorable review. To sum it up in one sentence, just go for it, the ticket price of several dozen yuan is definitely worth it.

Sun Zhong was feeling a little hungry and planned to have a midnight snack at the snack stand in front of the cinema. Then he saw Chen Lan picking out starch sausages in front of the stand.

"Didn't you say you were going to sleep?"

"Didn't you say you were working overtime to finish the documents?"

The two questioned each other, but couldn't help but smile at each other. Seeing Chen Lan taking out her phone and dropping the movie ticket for "Wushuang" at her feet, Sun Zhong started to joke.

"How was Wei Yang's movie?"

Chen Lan took a bite of starch sausage and said firmly: "The movie is good, but the guy is still a scumbag."
