Chapter 1423 Movie Scalper Tickets
Applause rang out, and excited tears filled my eyes. "Wu" touched too many people. In the past, some people have been making so-called tributes to classic films, but they always give people a feeling that the essence is hard to come by. It's neither fish nor fowl, and it looks more like imitation than tribute.
Whether it is a tribute or an imitation does not depend on the form, but on the impression the whole film brings to everyone. There is not much to explore in this film, and the film review will not analyze it at the spoiler level. This is a very simple story of passionate young people, a journey of chasing dreams about Wu, and an action film that fully and extremely displays action design and display.
Enjoyable.
It is very enjoyable to watch from beginning to end. This is the most intuitive impression of all audiences. There is nothing with added value. What you are watching is the film we promote, an extreme action film, a martial arts fighting film that pays tribute to classics.
With the most realistic actions and pictures, the technical level of shooting was filmed on the beach, returning to the origin, pursuing the pictures that people can shoot to the extreme. This is also in line with Chen Hao's style. He likes to use reality to deal with shooting, and likes to use real pictures to shoot movies that everyone thinks are good-looking. This time, it is no longer a real picture mixed with special effects, but the whole article is "people-oriented".
When several old people were applauding, they couldn't help but say to the people around them: "Action movies have come to this, and our generation has no regrets."
Chen Hao made a perfect summary of martial arts and action movies over the past half century, and drew a perfect end. Here, he also won the sincere recognition and respect of all the predecessors. A young man can do this. These old people can really enjoy their old age at home, and no longer need to worry about the decline of the industry they have struggled for all their lives. Today, they have not been forgotten, and their last wish to be remembered has been met. The real thoughts of several old people are indeed the cognition of dying without regrets.
At today's premiere, Chen Hao did not go on stage, and the main creative staff did not go on stage to face the "audience" at the end. The host explained the reason to everyone: "There is no audience today. Today everyone is the creator of this movie. Let's give ourselves a final applause."
Give yourself a final applause and go out to listen to the voices of the world. A film is not only a Chinese martial arts film, nor is it only a Chinese-style action film. It combines the settings of mainstream action films in the world, and also combines various fighting methods belonging to the world. Chen Hao is not completely invincible, and Chinese "Kung Fu" is not invincible.
Although the story of the film is simple, the core idea to be conveyed is not ambiguous at all-the hero breaks the law with martial arts, there is no truly invincible school of moves in the world, and the truly invincible is the person who uses it.
The film is clean and neat, and there is no drag in the plot every second. It makes people feel so refreshed after watching it, and there is no time to think about what is good about this film. Anyway, I am very happy to watch it, and nothing else is important.
At the premiere, everyone was very moved and excited. When the media began to interview the audience outside, they were all very excited. The film not only has fighting scenes, but also respect for culture. For example, the overseas Chinese are shown in great detail. In the Chinese community in North America, the value of this film was instantly ignited.
Many second- and third-generation Chinese immigrants, although they have already regarded themselves as Americans, have been exposed to the customs of the early or mid-twentieth century brought by their parents and grandparents since childhood. They do not like or dislike that kind of lifestyle. It is a habit. From childhood to adulthood, they have seen the decoration style of the house, the way of dealing with festivals at home, and there are still many homes that worship "Guan Erye". These things with Chinese colors are a kind of color that can penetrate into the bone marrow. There is no need to admit it or not. It is enough to feel familiar when seeing it. The film can bring them a friendly feeling, which is already very successful at this level.
After the premiere, you can see many media reporters carrying cameras on the streets of Hong Kong, and the entrances of various cinemas are crowded. In the past, when encountering such things, some people would ask what happened. Today, in Hong Kong, except for those who are really isolated from the outside world, everyone knows about the grand event of Hong Kong movies.
All major media are conducting real-time tracking reports, and there is also a platform like Lele that broadcasts the whole process live. When watching the movie at the premiere, they need to turn off the camera. After the premiere, they immediately followed Qiu Yu and came to Chen Hao's vicinity, following his whereabouts throughout the process, so that Haomen fans all over the world can get the latest first-hand information as soon as possible, so that they can see their idol as much as possible.
The cinemas in the busy streets of Hong Kong are all congested. In addition to those queuing to buy tickets, there are even scalpers for movie tickets. This scene can be used as a joke after being captured by the media to show the appeal of Chen Hao's works.
The impact of a film like "Wu" shown in Hong Kong is much greater than that in the Chinese community in North America. You can see many elderly people walking into the cinema. The entire coverage covers everyone in Hong Kong, and every show is packed. Too many people cannot wait, so they would rather spend a little more money to buy scalped movies and go to the cinema to watch them as soon as possible.
At the premiere at noon, the tickets for the three shows at around 6:00, 8:00, and 10:00 in the afternoon were sold out early. Even the smallest lice is meat. Although a scalper ticket does not make much money, it can be regarded as a small profit after joining in the fun. At 11 or 12 o'clock in the evening, I also made money. I left a few tickets for myself and my family, sat in the cinema honestly, and appreciated the visual feast brought by Mr. Chen.
The mainland also followed suit. Fortunately, no matter how high the scalper movie tickets are, they are at most twice the value, which everyone can afford. Otherwise, it may be reflected above. In the future, you have to show your ID to buy movie tickets, and there is a limited purchase quota for each show. Can you imagine that one person buys all the tickets for a show at once?
This kind of operation was incredible before today. If I can't watch a movie this time, I can watch the next one. If I can't watch it today, I can watch it tomorrow. There is no threshold. Let the scalpers book the theater by themselves. Who will indulge them?
"Wu", based on the effect of word of mouth, is really worth letting scalpers sell tickets for a while on the first day.
