Chapter 266: "Those Years" Premiere!
Wu Yuan only set a framework for the lawsuit of "The Third Man" being plagiarized, and the in-depth streaming media cooperation between Guangying Times and Guangying Kuaibo.
The specific follow-up processing will be arranged after all the staff in various aspects are in place.
Compared with these things that he will worry about later, Wu Yuan pays more attention to another thing at the moment.
The movie "Those Years, We Chased the Girl Together" that he made to promote his girlfriend is about to be released!
"Those Years" was completed in February this year and entered the post-production stage.
Wu Yuan also took out the song "Those Years" by the way, found a music production team in the mainland to improve the arrangement, and let Zhu Yawen sing it.
Naturally, a trailer with the song "Those Years" as the background music was also released on the Internet in early September this year.
From the beginning of the project of "Those Years" to the determination of the male and female protagonists, the middle of the shooting, and the completion of the shooting, every step of the process has attracted the attention of netizens and fans.
Just when "Don't Knock on the Door" was released, the trailer of "Those Years" also set off a wave of public opinion on the Internet.
Li Yang's "Whose Youth Is Not Confused" still left a deep impression on many domestic movie fans.
However, unlike his debut work, this time "Those Years" is no longer about the youth of the post-70s, but the next generation, the youth experience of the post-80s generation who are now active on the Internet.
"Shen Jiayi, I like you very much, I like you very much, one day I will definitely chase you!"
"Every boy has a Shen Jiayi in his heart."
Accompanied by Zhu Yawen's youthful voice, the trailer of "Those Years" swept through the post-80s young people like a tornado.
Liu Yifei, wearing a single ponytail and a white gauze skirt, walked across the playground with a book in her arms, talking and laughing with her classmates.
Whether it is the male protagonist group in the trailer or the netizens who watched the trailer, they were conquered by this beautiful figure.
As the sentence at the beginning of the trailer said.
Every boy has a Shen Jiayi in his heart.
A crush that illuminates boys' adolescence.
There is no doubt that the pure and beautiful Liu Yifei absolutely fits everyone's perfect impression of the youthful "her".
The entire trailer is not long, only two and a half minutes, but several classic shots in the movie were cut out.
For example, Ke Jingteng and Shen Jiayi were doing horse stance in the corridor together.
The two of them released Kongming lanterns together, and wrote "I like you" on the Kongming lanterns, but no one said it out loud.
In the rain, Ke Jingteng yelled at Shen Jiayi: "Yes, I am so naive that I have liked you for so long!"
At the end of the trailer, Shen Jiayi took a ballpoint pen and poked Ke Jingteng's back, waking him up from sleeping in class.
A burst of laughter came, and the camera angle slowly pulled up to the ceiling.
"Before the desk, behind the desk."
"Our youth starts here."
"Take back your youth on 2007/10/1!"
"Directed by Li Yang, written by Wu Yuan."
"Starring: Liu Yifei, Zhu Yawen."
The trailer ends here, but the netizens who watched the trailer, the hearts that were disturbed, are not so easy to calm down.
Familiar classroom, familiar class, familiar school uniform, and the familiar standing outside the corridor.
Boys like to whisper in the back row and secretly pull the bow hairband of the girl in the front.
When the girls are annoyed, they take ballpoint pens or mechanical pencils and poke the hands and backs of boys, leaving round marks.
In the last second, they are still frowning, and in the next second, facing the boy's nonchalant expression, they can only laugh through tears.
All this is really too familiar.
So familiar that everyone recalls their high school campus days, and recalls the "Shen Jiayi" who they secretly love in high school, who is exactly the same as in the trailer.
Every boy has a Shen Jiayi in his youth.
Every girl has also met such a Ke Jingteng.
But what is the final ending of Ke Jingteng and Shen Jiayi?
Did they become a couple?
Did they live happily together in the end?
You have to go to the cinema to find the answer.
The trailer, that's the effect!
The trailer of "Those Years" successfully evoked the memories of the post-80s fans and netizens about campus youth and high school, and also aroused their interest in watching this movie.
They really want to know the complete story between Shen Jiayi and Ke Jingteng.
Perhaps they want to see not only the story, but also their youth that has passed away and can never come back.
Compared with "Whose Youth Is Not Confused", the movie "Those Years" received much higher public opinion response on the Internet after the trailer was released.
After all, the post-80s are the most active and most vocal age group among mainland netizens.
In the words of later generations, the post-80s are all living people on the Internet and the main force of the Internet.
Liu Yifei is already very famous. She is currently recognized by the public as one of the most beautiful actresses in the mainland. Her popularity is so high.
More importantly, the high school and college students who watched the movie "Your Name" have now entered society and become workers.
When they were in high school and college, they cried for Liu Yifei's touching story in the movie "Your Name". The movie left a deep impression in their memory and became an indelible part of their youthful memories.
Now, Liu Yifei has made another movie, playing the kind of girl they had a crush on in high school, and it is also a youth campus movie.
With the blessing of this double "memory killing", how can they not go to the cinema to support it?
The seeds planted by Wu Yuan in the movie "Your Name" a few years ago will finally bloom into beautiful flowers this year.
On the fifth floor of Joy City, which will open at the end of the year in the Xidan business district of Beijing, there is a Light and Shadow Era Cinema covering an area of 2,500 square meters.
This Light and Shadow Era Cinema is the first large-scale cinema of Light and Shadow Era, with 4 luxury screening halls and 1 VIP hall, with a total of more than 800 seats.
In this day and age, a cinema of this size is obviously very large.
Although Joy City plans to officially open on December 28, in fact, the internal decoration and the entry of merchants have basically been completed.
The premiere of the movie "Those Years" was planned to be held here, as a promotion for the cinema brand of Light and Shadow Era.
September 28, more than two o'clock in the afternoon.
Today's weather is very good, sunny, not dry breeze, cool and pleasant.
Outside Xidan Joy City, dozens of domestic mainstream entertainment media reporters and hundreds of fans holding banners and light boards gathered, looking forward to the end of the red carpet that had been laid out.
Several black courtesy cars were parked here.
One after another, the main creative team of "Those Years", wearing suits and ties or gorgeous dresses, got out of the car.
Director Li Yang, the male lead Zhu Yawen, the female lead Liu Yifei, and the supporting roles Shi Xiaolong, Hao Shaowen, Xie Miao and others stood at the end of the red carpet, waving and greeting the fans and media reporters around them generously.
Wu Yuan was also among them, smiling.
He is the screenwriter of Those Years. It is normal for him to attend the premiere. He was definitely not dragged here by Liu Yifei.
Looking at Liu Yifei, who was wearing a white dress with a business smile and holding his left hand, waving to the reporters, Wu Yuan leaned close to her ear helplessly and whispered:
"Xixi, you are the heroine, you should walk the red carpet with the hero, or at least with the director. What's the point of sticking to me?"
"Are you planning to make our relationship public at the premiere today to add fuel to the box office of Those Years?"
"It's such a big sacrifice?"
Liu Yifei glanced at him unhappily: "Don't think I don't dare!"
Although she said so, she still let go of her hand obediently, took a step forward, stood next to Director Li Yang, and walked side by side with him on the red carpet.
Although the most appropriate way should be to walk the red carpet side by side with Zhu Yawen, but because Wu Yuan was there, Liu Yifei didn't want to stimulate Wu Yuan's jealousy.
Zhu Yawen was also very perceptive. She stepped forward quickly and stood on the other side of Li Yang, and Li Yang led the two leading actors to walk the red carpet together.
As soon as the three walked on the red carpet, they were greeted with cheers from all over the sky.
Liu Yifei's popularity is really high. Eighty percent of the fans gathered outside the scene are hers. They hold up "Fei Fans" light signs, scream and cheer continuously, and their faces are flushed with excitement.
"Thank you everyone!"
"Thank you for your support!"
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Liu Yifei thanked them all the way and was very moved.
You know, these fans did not get the qualification to watch the premiere. They gathered here just to see her so quickly, support her, and cheer for her.
Wu Yuan, who was low-key and mixed in the main creative group and followed behind on the red carpet, looked at the huge momentum at the scene with complicated emotions.
The current Liu Yifei is more and more like the Liu Yifei in his dream memory.
But in Wu Yuan's impression, her acting career in this life is undoubtedly smoother and less bumpy.
Transgender, thin horse theory, Huayi ban, counterfeit dress scandal, and other smears and difficulties that she would have encountered will never happen again this time.
Liu Yifei, 20 years old, still maintains the innocence and cheerfulness when Wu Yuan first met her at the age of 14, which is the thing Wu Yuan is most proud of.
Proud and emotional "Hi", Wu Yuan followed the crowd and walked into the cinema with others.
The premiere of "Those Years" did not invite any guests in the circle, mainly because except Liu Yifei, the network of other actors is too shallow.
This premiere is more for film critics and media reporters, inviting them to see the movie first, so as to promote the reputation of "Those Years" on the Internet and newspapers.
The newly built Light and Shadow Times Cinema has 800 seats in five screening halls, almost all of which are filled with media, film critics and some lucky audiences who won tickets on Douban.
After everyone was seated, in the largest screening hall No. 1, Li Yang thanked Wu Yuan for his appreciation and support, as well as the actors for their hard work, and the premiere of "Those Years" officially began.
As the melodious and crisp piano prelude sounded, Zhu Yawen, wearing a suit, appeared in front of the big screen and adjusted the bow tie on his neck in front of the mirror.
"Ko Ching-teng, let's go!"
"The wedding is about to begin!"
All the people who came to the premiere had watched the trailer in advance.
This confusing beginning successfully fooled them.
"Wedding?"
"Ko Ching-teng and Shen Jiayi finally got married?"
"Is this a happy ending?"
Amidst the waves of discussion mixed with expectations, the perspective of the picture on the big screen gradually shifted from Ko Ching-teng to the window.
A paper airplane made of paper flew out of the window.
The camera perspective flew into the sky with the paper airplane.
After rising, turning, and drawing a large arc in the sky, the paper airplane dived, kept falling, and flew into a window again.
A Chinese-style classroom that everyone is familiar with appeared in the eyes of the audience.
Ko Ching-teng, who was just tidying up his suit, was now wearing a school uniform and lying on the desk.
Behind him, Shen Jiayi, who was reading a book and attending a class, held a mechanical pencil in her left hand, and was about to stab him in the back.
"Summer of 1998."
"The story of Shen Jiayi and I began."
