the fastest
update of the latest chapter of the entertainment empire!
“I didn’t expect her to come too.”
In the
slow music, everyone was watching the opening of the movie “Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons”. Xia Yu, who was on the side, suddenly approached Luo Xun, and said such a sentence without thinking. , which made Luo Xun curious:
“Who is it?”
“Xu Wenjing.”
Luo Xun was startled, he was no stranger to the name Xu Wenjing, the earliest film critic in China, the vice president of the Film Association, and also a number of domestic film-related magazines. The shareholder and even the founder of the company is considered a top player in the film and television industry, and a very influential figure:
“Where is it?”
“The second in the third row.”
Zhang Suining also saw the person.
Xia Yu said with a smile: “It is estimated that he was invited by Xing Ye. I would like to praise Zhou Xingchi’s courage. You must know that Xing Ye’s “Yangtze River No. 7″ received such a flood of negative reviews, which has a lot to do with Xu Wenjing. When the movie was released, the magazines and newspapers under her name did not praise the movie. She even wrote a movie review herself, with thousands of words. The film critics are very popular, which affects the choice of many audiences, so in normal logic, no matter which film critics Xingye invites this time, he should not invite this one.”
“…”
Luo Xun had heard about this. At this moment, knowing that the other party was at the scene, he couldn’t help but look back. As a result, he saw Xu Wenjing holding the notebook in his hand. The other party was about forty years old and wore gold-frame glasses. , It looks very intellectual, who would have thought that under such a temperamental appearance, the pen is actually very sharp and even sharp.
It seems to have a feeling.
Xu Wenjing also raised her head and glanced at Luo Xun, but there was no turbulence in her heart. When she appeared here today, almost everyone looked at themselves with curious eyes. In fact, not to mention the group of people present, even Xu Wenjing herself Unexpectedly, among the many film critics who participated in the first event of “Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons” in Yanjing, Zhou Xingchi even invited her… an
enemy?
It can only be admitted that the king of comedy is indeed courageous, but at the same time Xu Wenjing will not show mercy because of this. The biggest feature of her film review is that the good and bad are divided into special details, and she will not let go because of the so-called feelings and achievements. Aesthetic standards for cinema.
The opening music ends.
The first picture of the film is very beautiful, with green mountains and green water, Zhong Ling Xiumin, there is a village built by the mountains and the water, it seems that they are all local fishermen, leaning on the boat by the river, a little girl of three or four years old is watching. Facing the river, she said softly, “A turtle is crawling, crawling, crawling, and two fish are swimming and swimming…” The
little girl has a beautiful face.
It looks extra cute.
On the river bank, the little girl’s father showed a warm smile, sent the girl to the bank, and teased her: “Dad is going into the water, don’t be so close to the river, you will be captured by monsters.”
“There is no Monster!”
The little girl refuted her father with a childish voice. The little girl’s father smiled when he heard the words, and suddenly pointed to the river surface mysteriously: “There are no monsters here? Look, what is that…” The
little girl was startled.
She stared uncomfortably in the direction her father was pointing, and saw waves in the green lake, making the lake sparkle, and suddenly a head covered by a fishing net appeared in the quiet lake, The girl trembled with fright:
“Haha, it’s me!” The
father opened his arms proudly, but the little girl pursed her mouth and cried loudly. The girl’s mind was pure, she was really frightened, her father saw this Busy comforting, in order to make the child laugh again, he deliberately stood upside down in the water, only his two feet were exposed, and he swayed back and forth from left to right.
“Giggle…” The
girl’s cry gradually stopped, and she let out a silver bell-like laughter, but her father’s legs that were exposed on the lake suddenly trembled, and then twitched slightly, and then struggled greatly!
Water splashed everywhere.
The music is cold and eerie.
His father’s legs were dragged around the lake and moved quickly, and he finally got out of his head, but he exclaimed in despair and pain. Watching this scene, the audience in the cinema only felt cold all over, but the girl on the shore laughed. She was getting more and more happy, thinking that her father was still making her happy, and said in a tender voice:
“Come on
,
Dad!”
The green lake in the center was completely dyed blood red. At this time, the girl pointed at the lake and smiled very happily: “Fool, fool.”
“Changsheng, what are you doing here?”
A woman asked behind him, “Where’s your father?”
At this time, the lake surface had calmed down, and the bright red had gradually faded away, but the audience felt a little numb on their scalps. Making everyone laugh, on the contrary, frightened everyone enough, especially when the father died in the river, but the young daughter smiled extremely innocently and happily, which made people feel indescribable.
Xu Wenjing raised an eyebrow.
The plot of this first act is really weird, a bit like a dark fairy tale. The so-called paradise with beautiful mountains and rivers is only the surface, which fits the dark background of Journey to the West: “It’s interesting.”
Xu Wenjing nodded.
As soon as the camera turned, it was already at the funeral of Changsheng’s father. A Taoist priest who looked like a fairy, rowed into the water, recited the Taoist mantra in his mouth, and finally exploded a very large monster in the river. fish!
“Sure enough, it’s a monster!” The
Taoist priest opened his mouth and flicked the dust.
The villagers worked together to pull the strange fish to the shore, and thanked the Taoist a lot. The village chief brought two baskets. , for the sake of the world, too precious gifts will not be accepted by the poor.”
This Taoist priest is a master!
The audience thought like this, but the next moment there was a series of puffing laughter in the theater, and I saw that the Taoist resolutely picked up the basket full of silver and stuffed the salted fish back into the arms of the village chief: “Such a precious gift , I won’t want it.”
Xia Yu and Zhang Suining were also happy.
Luo Xun didn’t laugh. After all, he made up the plot. According to Zhou Xingchi’s original idea, he was looking for a wretched Taoist priest to play the role. The original version did find a wretched actor, but Luo Xun said that in this movie, he looked like a There are too many ugly actors, and we need to find something good-looking to enrich them. We might as well let a Taoist priest who looks immortal and moral to play this role, the contrast is more obvious, so Zhou Xingchi adopted Luo Xun’s suggestion.
The effect is ok.
In the laughter of everyone in the theater, a slightly helpless and sad voice suddenly sounded, Luo Xun’s face appeared in the camera: “You are all wrong, this fish is not a monster!” The
audience was refreshed .
It’s the protagonist’s turn!
