Chapter 681 good start
On Singles’ Day, Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon attended Fatty Wang’s wedding together. Seeing the envy in the girl’s eyes, Li Mo felt that it was time to think about his lifelong affairs.
The only thing that gave him a headache was Krystal.
Although the girl has long stated that she doesn’t mind Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon getting married, Li Mo knows that no woman will mind this kind of thing. But there’s always someone to sacrifice, and there’s no other way but to grieve Krystal.
Li Mo secretly started to prepare by himself, and the time passed day by day, sending off the end of 2014, and soon ushered in 2015, a new year.
Seoul has been surrounded by cold winters, but the entertainment industry is still hot.
Kang Youshuo’s new work “Deadly Virus” has been completed, and large-scale publicity is overwhelming. Its promotional posters can be seen everywhere at subway stations, buses, and on the streets.
On January 15th, the premiere of “Deadly Virus” will be held.
The confident Kang Woo-suk and showbox only held a test screening, and after receiving good reviews, they began to show on a large scale. What is intriguing is that “Train to Busan” invested by N.E.W and Sanshi Film and Television will hold a large-scale trial screening across the country in five days, and the exact release time has not been announced.
In the eyes of the media, this is a signal that N.E.W is unwilling to confront “Deadly Virus” head-on, so they began to sing praises for Kang Youshuo.
“what is this?”
Kim Taeyeon took the envelope that Li Mo handed her, “Invitation letter? They actually invited you to the premiere?”
The works of the senior Kang Youshuo are released, and all those who can participate in the premiere are the seniors in the circle. Even with the status of a young age, if there is no invitation, this kind of occasion is not enough to attend, let alone now Kim Taeyeon is out alone.
She was even more surprised that the invitation letter was sent over there. Is it sincere or a demonstration?
“You go with me… Don’t be in a hurry to refuse, Xiu Jing is not available.”
Kim Taeyeon pursed her lips, “Hey, I’m not from the actor circle, so I just find it uncomfortable when I go there.”
“Follow me, who dares to look down on you?” Li Mo said.
“Should we walk the red carpet?”
Li Mo slapped his head sharply, “Yes, if you want to walk the red carpet, it’s better for me to go alone. It’s so cold outside, I can’t bear to let you wear a skirt.”
“No, I’m going.” Jin Taeyeon was afraid that Li Mo would say something surprising. After all, it was the premiere of Kang Youshuo’s movie.
“Then you are not allowed to wear skirts.”
Kim Taeyeon rolled her eyes at Li Mo, did she wear jeans without wearing a skirt?
The two arrived at the theater before 18:00.
The scene has already been arranged, and many enthusiastic fans are not afraid of the cold, shouting the names of the stars present in the cold wind.
Lee Byung-hun, Rain, Kim Tae-hee, etc., it seems that showbox has done a lot of work.
Dramatically, when Li Mo got out of the car, a violent cold wind blew, and the scene was silent.
Even Li Mo was taken aback, thinking that his aura was so powerful that no one dared to speak out.
Immediately, the overwhelmed audience noticed the arrival of Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon. There was a little applause and cheers for Kim Taeyeon. Li Mo was obviously not very popular.
Li Mo smiled, but whispered to Jin Taeyeon, “Did these people pay for them?”
“I guess, who made you so annoying!” Kim Taeyeon also made a joke.
Kang Youshuo was receiving guests in the theater, and his face was a little weird when he heard the staff remind Li Mo to come too.
His original intention was to send an invitation letter to Li Mo as a courtesy, and most people would not come when they received it. Unexpectedly, Li Mo, a stunned young man, didn’t ask other people for advice, and Jin Taeyeon didn’t understand the morals inside. The two of them came to step on the field like this.
Kang Wooseok thought for a moment, and then he said a few words to Song Kanghao next to him. The latter was also very surprised, shook his head with a wry smile and went to welcome Li Mo’s arrival.
“Hello, Mr. Lee, Miss Kim Taeyeon.” Song Kanghao greeted calmly.
“Hello, I like your performance in “The Monster of the Han River” very much.” Li Mo greeted, in fact, this is the only movie he has seen starring Song Kanghao. When it comes to Korean movies, it’s those 18-bans that suit his taste.
In the face of Li Mo’s praise, Song Kanghao said modestly, “Mr. Li’s “Signal” is very good, I rarely watch a TV series.”
“It was my pleasure.”
The three of them chatted casually and then walked into the theater together.
Under the leadership of Song Kanghao, Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon got to know a lot of people together. The old cunning and cunning did not show the slightest trace, and Li Mo and Jin Taeyeon were also happy to be quiet.
The time is about the same, the ones that should come have come, and the ones that shouldn’t have come, and the premiere will begin immediately.
“Deadly Virus” is different from “Train to Busan”, which takes place on a train bound for Busan. But the movie is shot so fast, it must not be a big production. The hero played by Song Kang-ho is an employee of a company. The alarm bell suddenly rang in the building before he got off work, and then someone suddenly started to bite… The story begins like this.
Everyone took it seriously, this is respect for Kang Youshuo.
But Li Mo soon got bored and yawned, Kang Youshuo had nothing to say about his level of directing, and Song Kanghao was worthy of being a movie king actor. But after reading the beginning, Li Mo guessed the end.
The old-fashioned, honest and reliable male protagonist leads the uninfected people to break out of the siege. Among them, the emotional changes of the male protagonist are handled very carefully, and the acting skills of the main actors are very good. For Li Mo, the rhythm is a bit too slow, and in short, it is not his thing.
But after the movie ended, the audience’s reaction was very good.
In order to avoid the reporters to trouble them, Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon quietly left the theater.
In the evening, most of the movie websites or entertainment news media on the Internet said that “Deadly Virus” was a good movie, Song Kanghao’s performance was great and so on.
On the second day, “Deadly Virus” was officially released, but the audience received mixed reviews.
The good aspect of is probably: Song Kanghao and other leading actors have great acting skills, the color of the picture is well handled, and so on.
The bad reviews are more concentrated on the old-fashioned plot, the slow development of the story, the protagonist is too awesome, and an ordinary white-collar worker suddenly becomes a superman.
received about 130,000 viewers on the first day of its release, which is considered a good start. However, it did not reach the target of 200,000 people for showbox and Kang Youshuo.
The second day rose slightly to 170,000…
On the third day, the number of visitors dropped eerily to 150,000…
To the fifth day of the trial screening of “Train to Busan”, a total of 610,000 moviegoers were received. It was a relatively poor result, as if the cold weather made the audience reluctant to come out to watch the movie.
Under the unfavorable situation of “Deadly Virus”, Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Ulsan and other places began large-scale trial screenings.
