Chapter 564 Luo Ji Zhuang Yan
At the guest table, Chen Kun, who was wearing a crisp suit, looked solemn and stared at the big screen, looking a little nervous.
After all, "The Three-Body Problem" has attracted too much attention and has too much influence. Once his performance as Luo Ji is not recognized, the damage to his career will be avalanche.
Because not long ago, he had already experienced the harm caused by not being recognized.
The movie is "Zhong Kui Conquers the Demons", produced by Dasheng International Media. The producer is An Xiaofen, who is well-known in the industry. He is also an old friend of director Zhang Yimou. He once worked at Xinhua Noodle Company. He is a financial director. After changing jobs, he has participated in the production of films such as "Ip Man", "The Guardian", and "Tiny Times". He is also a very capable figure in the industry.
But not everyone can pull off special effects blockbusters, especially when the budget is "limited" and the creative team's aesthetic is more "Western".
The total investment of "Zhong Kui Conquers the Demons" is 250 million yuan, of which more than 40 million is for publicity and distribution expenses. Compared with other companies' special effects blockbusters, this investment amount is quite conscientious.
But compared with Aiyouteng's works, this amount of funds is really scarce.
The problem with "Zhong Kui Conquers the Demons" is that the characters in the film are too Western-style, especially when the demon king leads the demonic creatures to attack humans. Audiences who like to play online games instantly smelled a "DOTA trend".
The transformed image of the male protagonist is not quite the same as the traditional Zhong Kui, but rather resembles Wolverine.
This movie was originally scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival in 2015. At this time, in order to avoid the impact of "The Three-Body Problem", the film was scheduled to be released at the end of the year during the Lunar New Year. It has already been released.
As a result, its reputation collapsed, its Douban score was only 4.7, and its box office was not high, with the film not exceeding 100 million in a single day.
As the male protagonist, Chen Kun naturally gets scolded a lot.
Now, we can only hope to make a turnaround with "The Three-Body Problem 2".
Fortunately, judging from the current performance, it is still good.
After all, he has good looks and a naturally melancholic temperament. It is not easy to play a cynical young scholar.
On the big screen, Luo Ji, played by Chen Kun, after learning that the other three Wallfacers were recruiting troops and forming a staff, all he did was to find Garnin, the rotating chairman of the Planetary Defense Council, to find someone who could live a noble life. 's retreat.
There must be snow-capped mountains, lakes, forests and manors, and they claim that this is part of the "Facing the Wall Plan", a very important part.
Garning agreed without saying a word, because Luo Ji's request was the least expensive among the four wall-facers.
It must be said that the Planetary Defense Council was very efficient, and Luo Ji soon lived the life he had dreamed of.
Garnin really found him a dreamy manor so that he could live like an old European noble.
There were butlers, chefs, drivers, grooms and others serving him in the manor. There were also yachts parked by the lake. Luo Ji instantly became the most leisurely and enjoyable person in the world.
Walking by the lake, collecting in the mountains, reading some solitary books, playing golf, horse riding, and climbing snow-capped mountains, it’s hard to live a comfortable life.
When he was extremely bored, he saw a news on TV about salvaging a sunken ship in the 17th century, and learned that there was a barrel of well-sealed wine on the ship.
Because experts say this wine is still drinkable, and after three hundred years of "cellaring" under the sea, it may taste very good.
Luo Ji immediately called his assistant and claimed that wine was also part of his plan to face the wall.
The assistant spent hundreds of thousands of euros to buy the barrel of wine. After one sip, Luo Ji suffered from vomiting and diarrhea and almost died.
At the same time, the other three wall-facers are carrying out seemingly grand plans and actions.
Frederick Taylor set out to establish a space force independent of the Earth's main fleet, using ball lightning and macroatomic nuclear fusion as the main weapons and equipment.
Manuel Reydiaz proposed building a stellar-class hydrogen bomb, which would also cost a lot of money.
Bill Hines lives in Tokyo and spends his days thinking about his plans...
As for Luo Ji, he was resurrected with full health after a few days of inhalation.
He walked out of the room, opened his arms, and shouted in the direction of the lake and snow-capped mountains: "Compared with the current life, what is the world in more than four hundred years? Damn the Wall-Facing Plan!"
Most of the audience laughed when they saw this scene.
Because this is the true reaction of ordinary people when encountering this kind of thing!
It will take four hundred years for the Trisolaran fleet to reach the earth. What does it have to do with people today?
Who knows how the Trisolarans will enslave their descendants when they come. What if, like Megatron, they force the people on earth to work a full eight hours a day, providing only three meals and snacks a day, and only an hour's lunch break...
Luo Jixian was extremely bored and began to wish for a woman.
He asked his assistant to find Shi Qiang and asked him to find a girl according to his dream preferences. She was in her early twenties, and her name, age, nationality, and address were unknown...
Shi Qiang said it was not a big problem, but Luo Ji looked a little confused, because this was the girl of his dreams.
Shi Qiang smiled and said something very philosophical: What is perfect in your heart may not be perfect in the eyes of others.
Not long after, Zhuang Yan, played by Zhang Ruonan, appeared on the stage.
Check out the correct version one by one!
This scene was shot very beautifully by Jiang Heng. A girl in her early twenties, wearing a white dress with flowing long hair, was walking by the lake where she could see the snow-capped mountains.
Looking back and smiling, that sweet appearance and youthful aura instantly hit the heart of Luo Ji, a veteran of flowers.
In the venue, many male audiences were also amazed by Zhang Ruonan's performance.
"It looks so beautiful, even more beautiful than the one in "The Richest Man in Xihong City"!" said an audience member who attended the two premieres.
"Yes, the Xia Zhu she plays looks like a pretty little girl. This Zhuang Yan looks even more beautiful than Xiao Longnu and Wang Yuyan!"
"She feels a bit like a fairy sister!"
"It feels more beautiful than a fairy!"
"It's almost fun!"
The audience couldn't help but discuss in low voices, while Luo Ji on the big screen used his power to let Zhuang Yan live a happy and romantic life.
At the same time, the other three wall-facers encountered "broken walls" one after another.
And because Luo Ji's scene is a little dull and the scenes are not shocking enough, the scenes of the other three wall-facers in the film are always as shocking as they come.
For example, when the two wall-facers Taylor and Ray Diaz were told their true intentions by the "Wall Breaker", their thoughts were also presented in grand special effects scenes.
Such as annihilating the Earth's space force, turning it into a quantum ghost fleet, and detonating a large number of hydrogen bombs buried in the strata of Mercury, turning the solar system into an existence comparable to hell...
As for Luo Ji, he didn't encounter the "wall breaker". He encountered something worse. His wife and children disappeared.
Zhuang Yan left a note saying "We will wait for you at the end of the world" and left with the child.
So Luo Ji had to think about what to do if the Trisolarans really came four hundred years later. (End of chapter)
