Chapter 689 The Highest Level of Kung Fu

In the theater, many viewers have stood up and left.

Pi Dan felt that his bladder was a little swollen now, and he also needed to go to the toilet.

In fact, he wanted to watch the movie again, but he had been sitting in the theater for more than an hour, and it was time to go out and move around. He still had to do exercise in the evening. It was too early to watch it a second time now.

After leaving the theater with his girlfriend, Pi Dan went to the toilet first.

In the toilet, two boys he knew were still talking about the plot and scenes in "Kung Fu".

"The last move of the Buddha's Palm is so cool!"

"The palm method that fell from the sky!"

"Xu Ye is really good at filming. I haven't seen such a good-looking kung fu movie for a long time."

Suddenly a boy said: "Your wife is bucktoothed Jane."

The boy next to him was stunned for a moment.

Why are you attacking me personally!

Then the boy said: "It's okay to turn off the lights."

Pi Dan thought the conversation between the two was quite interesting.

These two boys looked like college students on summer vacation, and their mental state was different from that of people in society.

In the toilet, there were also audiences who had finished watching other movies.

Although these audiences didn't say anything, they could clearly hear the surrounding sounds.

"What is Tathagata Palm? What is the palm technique that falls from the sky?"

"Are there still good kung fu movies these days?"

"What does Bucktooth Jane do?"

Some people were also curious about what these people were discussing.

After Pi Dan finished using the toilet, he went shopping in the mall with his girlfriend.

While shopping, he opened the fan group.

Before watching the movie, he sent a message in the group, and the number of messages in the group has been swiped to 99+.

His fan group is still quite lively. Except for not talking about his videos, fans talk about everything.

"Dan Zai, it's been almost two hours, haven't you finished watching it yet?"

"What is Xu Ye's new movie like?"

"Dan Zai, say something, are you sick to death?"

Pi Dan glanced at the chat records of the silly group members and sent a message.

"I just finished watching the movie. I strongly recommend it to everyone. This movie is definitely a masterpiece. I can guarantee that it is the best kung fu movie in the past ten years!"

Pi Dan didn't say it too firmly. In fact, in his opinion, "Kung Fu" is more than that.

Not only is it the best kung fu movie, it is also one of the best movies.

But aesthetics is a matter of personal opinion. Some people just don't like to watch this type of movie, and you can't force it.

"Really? I don't believe it."

"Show me your bank card transaction records so that I can see if Xu Ye has transferred money to you."

"It's fine to say it's good, but why did you even use the word masterpiece? As far as I know, movies that were said to be masterpieces before they were released all ended up being terrible flops."

"Dan Zai, did you take the money?"

Pi Dan saw what the group members said and said directly: "Don't worry, I'll hold a lottery tonight and give away ten movie tickets. Talk after watching the movie."

As soon as the lottery came out, everyone's attitude changed immediately.

"Dan Zai is so generous!"

"Please tell me the inside story!"

"Quick, draw me!"

This lucky draw was originally in Pi Dan's plan. He did not refute the fans' words because he really accepted Xu Ye's gift.

But he would not speak against his conscience.

Since the movie is really good, he can vigorously promote Xu Ye.

After shopping and eating, Pi Dan and his girlfriend returned to their residence together.

On the way back, he turned on the song "Xu Da Xia" and played it on repeat.

After watching the movie, listening to this song again, it feels a little different.

The song "Xu Da Xia" has a tight rhythm.

While listening to the song, the last scene in his mind was that Xing Zai was dressed in white and black pants, with chic movements, and he single-handedly challenged the Axe Gang.

This made Pi Dan feel that his fighting power had improved.

With this BGM, he can defeat all enemies.

He glanced at his girlfriend sitting in the co-pilot seat.

Let's start with this enemy!

…

The preview of Kung Fu started in the afternoon, and the show Pi Dan watched was also the first one.

By the evening, the box office of the first day of preview of Kung Fu was basically released.

On the other hand, director Tang Zhirong had just finished a party in the circle.

They should attend such gatherings in the circle, which is also a way to exchange resources and expand their network.

He has been in the film industry for decades, and has several representative works. His status in the circle is naturally extraordinary.

Originally, there were a few little stars who served as the atmosphere group at the dinner table today who wanted to go home with him, but they were rejected by Tang Zhirong.

He has no time to do other things now.

Last year, the second part of his film "Ancient God" series was released at the same time as "Justice, My Foot", but in the end, the total box office did not exceed "Justice, My Foot".

Although "Justice, My Foot" won the box office championship with its high box office and prevented foreign films from winning the championship, Tang Zhirong still felt uncomfortable.

This is actually because of his prejudice against nonsensical comedy.

This year, Xu Ye has another movie online, and Tang Zhirong is extremely concerned.

This summer, there is no movie directed by him, but there is a movie produced by him, and the box office can only be said to be mediocre.

In addition, Piazza is coming on strong this time. Even if Chinese filmmakers are not happy about it, they know that the hope of keeping the Chinese film market lies in Xu Ye.

If Piazza really takes the championship this time, everyone will have no place to put their faces.

After returning home, Tang Zhirong opened the box office rankings.

In the past few days, most of the summer movies have come to an end.

The highest-grossing movie in a single day has only more than 30 million. Some movies that are about to be released and have poor reputations have only more than 1 million in a single day.

For movies like this, even if they apply for a key extension, theaters generally will not schedule them.

Cinema chains are very realistic. If you can make money, they will naturally schedule more films for you.

Tang Zhirong's eyes slowly moved down, and his eyes suddenly condensed.

"How did Kung Fu rank fifth?

The single-day box office of Kung Fu was 18.15 million.

Tang Zhirong quickly checked the detailed data, but the specific attendance information has not yet been released. Currently, only the schedule of 10,000 screenings can be seen.

"With 10,000 screenings, the box office is so high, how high must the attendance be?"

Tang Zhirong was dumbfounded.

"Kung Fu" is a 3D movie, and the box office is a little more expensive than 2D movies, but such box office can only be achieved with an attendance rate of at least 50%.

Half of the seats in a theater were sold out, which is too scary.

"It is also possible that on the first day, all the people who came to see the movie were Xu Ye's fans." Tang Zhirong analyzed.

With Xu Ye's current box office appeal, it is normal for the box office to exceed 100 million on the first day of the premiere.

Tang Zhirong then went online to search for relevant comments about Kung Fu.

But when he saw the comments, he was a little confused.

"The action scenes in it are so cool. This is the first time I have watched such a Kung Fu movie since I was a child."

"I laughed so hard that my stomach hurt while watching a movie. ”

“Praise the special effects. These special effects make me feel that my money is not wasted.”

Tang Zhirong was puzzled. Can Kung Fu movies have big scenes and special effects?

What kind of special effects can be produced in such fighting scenes?

When he roughly read the reviews, he found that they were basically all good reviews.

Tang Zhirong himself is also good at action and fantasy movies, and he often uses special effects in his movies.

This made him very interested in this movie.

Originally, he planned to wait until the official release to watch it, so in this case, he will go to watch it tomorrow.

Tang Zhirong picked up his mobile phone and prepared to buy a movie ticket for "Kung Fu" tomorrow.

When he opened the ticket purchase software, he found that the tickets for "Kung Fu" were almost sold out.

Each theater basically sold at least half of the tickets.

Tang Zhirong also wanted to find a good seat, preferably with no one on the left or right, but there was no such seat.

“Is this a preview? "Tang Zhirong was dumbfounded.

In the end, he could only buy a ticket for the seat at the back. Although the view was a little worse, there was no one on either side, so it was relatively quiet.

The next afternoon, Tang Zhirong put on a baseball cap and a mask and walked into the cinema.

As a famous director in the circle, many people knew him. Tang Zhirong didn't want to be discovered that he secretly went to see Xu Ye's movie.

Tang Zhirong watched this movie with a critical eye.

He wanted to find some flaws in it.

However, as the movie started playing, Tang Zhirong's eyes became solemn.

In this long shot at the beginning, the motionless police station and the arrogant Crocodile Gang boss formed a sharp contrast.

This performance method made Tang Zhirong applaud in his heart.

"What a good shot! ”

When the three Kuliqiangs and the Axe Gang started fighting in the screen, Tang Zhirong slapped the armrest excitedly.

The amplitude of his action was so large that the people in front looked back at him.

Fortunately, Tang Zhirong did not take off his mask, but just smiled awkwardly.

"Who is this martial arts instructor? I must invite him to be the martial arts instructor of my next movie!"

Tang Zhirong is currently writing the script for the third movie in the Ancient God series. This series of movies follows the oriental aesthetics and has a lot of action scenes.

A good martial arts instructor is very important to the entire movie.

On Earth, the martial arts instructor responsible for the fight between the three Kuliqiangs and the Axe Gang is Sammo Hung, and his level is also first-class in the Chinese film industry.

For the subsequent action scenes, the martial arts instructor is Yuan Heping, who also has a title called the world's number one martial arts instructor.

Sammo Hung's martial arts style is realistic, open and close, strong and domineering.

Yuan Heping is different, he knows it all.

It was under his guidance that the classic fighting scenes that followed were created.

A Many hours later, Tang Zhirong finished watching the whole movie.

He leaned back in his chair and fell into deep thought.

In the movie, the fight scene with the broken sky and the broken earth, and the last fight scene, even a well-informed director like him was a little surprised.

He couldn't figure out how Xu Ye's brain was made, how he could come up with so many fancy things, and how he could show these things on the big screen.

As a director, Tang Zhirong paid more attention to more places, and it was precisely because of the more places he paid attention to that he could feel the horror of this movie more.

When this movie came out, other movies in the summer season seemed like essays written by elementary school students.

"This is called professionalism!" Tang Zhirong exclaimed.

At this time, the credits played to the martial arts instructor section.

Tang Zhirong took a closer look and saw Xu Ye's name written in the column for martial arts instructor.

The expression on his face suddenly became very complicated.

He also said that he asked someone to be his martial arts instructor. This is nonsense.

After he came out of the cinema, he sat in the car and smoked two cigarettes.

He had always felt that Xu Ye's movies were not artistic enough before, but now it's better. The artistry of a movie is as high as the third or fourth floor.

Tang Zhirong must admit that he likes this movie very much.

With this film, Xu Ye's directorial skills are definitely among the best in China.

"The future life is to be feared."

Tang Zhirong believes that it is very possible that the box office of "Kung Fu" will exceed that of "Kung Fu"!

In this case, he can't be petty.

Tang Zhirong took out his mobile phone, edited a piece of content on Weibo and posted it.

"The highest state of Kung Fu is to see the world, see yourself, and see all living beings. "Kung Fu" reflects the harshness of the world with humor. Xu Ye used his fists and feet as pens to draw a picture of the awakening of a little person. From chaos to enlightenment, seeing The world is dangerous, but the brilliance of human nature can also be seen. He finally created a legend about growth and redemption with a heart that tolerates all things. "

After posting this Weibo, Tang Zhirong remembered the last sentence of the movie.

"You want to learn? I'll teach you."

After Tang Zhirong’s Weibo was published, it immediately attracted a lot of marketing accounts.

The marketing accounts were all confused.

Why did Tang Zhirong suddenly promote "Kung Fu" and it was well received?

In addition, the film schedule of "Kung Fu" has also improved today, and there are more and more discussions about "Kung Fu" on the Internet.

At the end of the second day, the box office of "Kung Fu" for the second day will be released!

The film schedule has increased from 10,000 to 15,000, and the box office has increased to 28 million!

In just two days of screening, the total box office has reached 46 million.
