Chapter 1031 Chapter 106 Flattery!
The movie gradually progresses to the last thirty minutes.
With the box office of "Big Wrist" exceeding 500 million as a foreshadowing, Feng Bicheng's latest black humorous comedy has attracted much attention, and Li Qian's screenwriter, Minghu Culture's production as an endorsement, plus comedian Huang Ge because he starred in the movie The important role "Brother Dao" in the film frequently promotes the film. It can be said that it is the reunion of the two comedians after "Big Wrist". Under normal circumstances, this movie would definitely have a very high screening rate as soon as it is released. What's more, it is during the Spring Festival and the first day of the Lunar New Year. In terms of status and influence, Feng Bicheng is not worthy of mentioning shoes?
At the same time as the premiere ceremony, the film has been released simultaneously nationwide with an ultra-high screening rate of 72% - reaching this level, basically as long as you are willing to walk into a cinema, you can definitely see this film up.
Moreover, although it is the first day of the new year, traditionally, people in the film industry generally believe that it should belong to the absolute off-season of the movie box office market, but in fact, today I went to the cinema to watch the opening scene of "Crazy Stone" The audience is really quite a lot.
Especially in many big theaters in big cities, the attendance rate of many screening halls exceeds 50%!
And as the movie started playing, if we say that in the first ten or twenty minutes, everyone just chuckled from time to time, and for the time being, they just entered the plot without hindrance, but when the movie is halfway through, In almost every screening hall across the country, continuous laughter began to be heard.
In the other time and space that Li Qian experienced, many people said that "Crazy Stone" was an imitation and study of the great director Guy Ritchie's "Two Smoking Barrels".
To be serious, this is probably something that even the original director Ning Hao can't deny.
But in fact, there is no need to underestimate this work because of this.
"Two Smoking Barrels" is indeed a classic, and it is indeed awesome. Its birth not only made Guy Ritchie famous in the first battle, but also greatly improved and expanded the art category of film to a certain extent. Technical height-including the skill of storytelling techniques, as well as the technical nature of editing.
But there are many people who have seen, liked, imitated and learned from "Two Smoking Barrels", and "Crazy Stone" alone has achieved success. And even if you look back at this movie ten years after its birth, you will still think it is a rare classic black humorous comedy.
This is power!
This is talent!
In the first six minutes, nine characters appeared densely. Not only did almost every character have a vivid image, but also the five events introducing these nine characters were arranged so densely. The plot was compact, coherent, and unexpected. At the same time, it also makes a nearly perfect and clear foreshadowing for the whole story.
In the hands of ordinary film directors, whether five incidents are explained in six minutes, or nine important characters appear in six minutes, it has long been messed up!
Not to mention doing both at the same time!
Xie Xiaomeng was stepped on for flirting with a girl, Bao Shihong's car window was smashed by a Coke can that fell from the sky, and the gang of thieves pretended to be a moving company and were caught by the traffic police when they were moving directly to someone else's house. After purchasing a handicraft factory, Bao Shihong's car hit a four-eyed BMW on a ramp without the handbrake on...
Xie Xiaomeng is lustful and pretends to be aggressive. Bao Shihong listened to the news of the discovery of jade on the radio when he was practicing. Hei Pi saw that he had a hammer in his sleeve, which showed his recklessness...
etc.
These six minutes, compact and coherent, are simply at the level of a master.
There is no bragging at all, this is a classic!
Moreover, in this current time and space, "Two Smoking Barrels" has never been born here-in theory, as the first "Crazy Stone", it will be even more classic. Even just relying on the first six minutes, it has enough qualifications to go straight to the hall.
With the full development of the movie story, the various forces headed by Bao Shihong's Jade Guards, the Dao Brother Trio, and the international thieves from Singapore are entangled with each other. This kind of colliding relationship makes the audience understand it directly without having to use any brains when watching it, and the wonderful collisions of all kinds of accidents can easily make the audience laugh-this It is really a great test for the screenwriter to write the story and the director to tell the story.
Of course, the original version is extremely wonderful, and Feng Bicheng's version is equally as wonderful.
Li Qian sat alone in the conference room, lit a cigar, was thinking about Qi Jie's going home, and soon fell into a state of distraction.
After most of the movie, he caught a dainty and beautiful figure approaching out of the corner of his eye, and subconsciously looked up, and saw the waiter in the living room coming, his face was slightly red, but he came over to talk to Li Li seriously. Qian said: "Mr. Li, I went to the entrance of the screening hall and listened, and there was a ball of laughter inside. And I would laugh out loud every two minutes. The movie must be a big hit!"
After a pause, the beautiful little girl added, "I heard that you wrote the script for this movie. You are really good!"
Li Qian froze for a moment, then laughed.
Well, although the girl's actions are a bit deliberate and too explicit, but the flattery is a good intention after all. Moreover, to be honest, as Li Qian's status is getting higher and higher, in the past two years, he has rarely had the opportunity to listen to such direct flattery from the people below - to flatter him, at least it must be Jin Han, Big names like Feng Bicheng, He Yingyu, and Zhou Baoshan, or the staff around them like Qin Nuo and Du Min.
This little girl is very courageous, and she seems to have a good chance to seize it.
So Li Qian raised his hand to fan the smoke in front of his eyes with a smile, nodded with a smile, and said, "Thank you! Thank you for your compliment! If this movie is really a hit, you can go to your manager for a copy." The red envelope, just say I said it, your blessing has contributed a lot to the success of this movie. The power of thought!"
The little girl blushed again, obviously a little embarrassed.
Obviously, the girl's emotional intelligence is not low, and she immediately heard the teasing meaning in Li Qian's words.
Of course she wouldn't be so stupid as to actually go to her manager to ask for a red envelope!
Even at this time, she also knew that it was too abrupt and too explicit for her to run over to flatter her like this, but it didn't matter, as long as she looked familiar!
And she quickly adjusted her mood, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Li, how about I help you turn up the exhaust fan?"
Li Qian nodded, "Okay, thank you!"
The girl left resolutely, and soon, under the watchful eyes of her other companion, helped Li Qian turn up the exhaust fan in the reception room to a higher level.
Well, Li Qianye, Lord Qian, how many beautiful little flowers I have seen, of course it is impossible to be so easy to hook up with, but being able to say a few words alone can probably leave such an impression in his heart, already That's great - didn't you see the jealousy and remorse on the face of another waitress in the living room?
Yes, I just thought of this flattering method, saw this opportunity, and did it boldly. You just didn’t think of it, didn’t see it, and even if you saw it, you might not be ashamed to do it!
…………
About ten minutes before the end of the movie, Li Qian finished smoking the cigar in his hand, and then turned around and went back—the two people sitting beside them, although they were very absorbed in watching, still quickly sniffed, Look over one after another. Well, the smell left on the body after smoking the cigar is really quite strong.
Li Qian clasped his hands together to the left and to the right to express his apology.
On the left is Bai Yujing, who smiled and said nothing.
On the right is Qin Jingjing, who smiled and said nothing.
…………
A few minutes later, the movie came to its final scene.
Heipi, played by Liu Zhongxin, crawled out of the sewer, black and smelly, tired and hungry, obviously very pitiful, but the laughter in the screening room almost never stopped.
And when he once again showed his reckless personality, grabbed food and ran away, eating while running, the food stall owner chased him all the way on a small motorcycle and said, "Hey, you can run! I let you You run!" Hei Pi continued to run while eating, and there was bursts of laughter in the movie screening hall.
There is no doubt that the movie works extremely well.
As the big screen was completely darkened, the lights were turned on, and thunderous applause erupted in the packed screening hall—leading by Feng Bicheng, the crew of "Crazy Stone" stood up one after another, clapping and nodding to the audience , Thank you for your applause.
Amidst the applause, Bai Yujing turned his head and said to Li Qian seriously: "Classic! It is not inferior to the absolute classic of "Big Wrist"! This movie is definitely a hit! And it is famous in the history of filming!"
Li Qian smiled and nodded.
Qin Jingjing quickly came over again, whispered to Li Qian, and said, "You are amazing! The script is yours, right?"
Seeing Li Qian nodding, she quickly said, "How did you come up with such a great story? It's all intertwined, so exciting, and every character is so brilliant! You're amazing!"
Li Qian smiled again, nodded at her, and said, "Thank you!"
Seeing Li Qian and Qin Jingjing whispering to each other, Bai Yujing glanced this way and didn't speak. When the two of them finished communicating, the applause gradually fell, and many media reporters sitting in the middle raised their hands high and wanted to ask questions. , Bai Yujing sat down with everyone again, and whispered to Li Qian: "Let's drink together later!"
Li Qian waved his hand, "Don't drink with wine barrels!"
Bai Yujing pursed her lips, with a look of contempt, "Count!"
