Chapter 544 Daily Movie Watching
On the 15th, the premiere of "Overheard 2" was held in Beijing. The passionate scene between Huang Yi and Liu Qingyun previously shown by the film crew unexpectedly turned out to be a mess.
The premiere was reported to be star-studded, with Feng Xiaogang, Huang Xiaoming, Zhou Xun and others attending the premiere.
Feng Xiaogang is the most popular.
Wearing a pair of sallow, wrinkled pants and an orange T-shirt that may not have been washed for more than a week, she walked onto the red carpet.
He was simply the most handsome guy on the red carpet at the premiere.
Except for Feng Xiaogang, no one dared to wear it like this.
Among the major mainland directors, only Feng Xiaogang came to support the show.
Li Chen, Zhang Yimou, and Chen Kaige, three of the most famous directors in the mainland, tacitly agreed not to go.
In this drama, except for Huang Yi, a mainland actor, the rest of the cast, from producer Er Dongsheng to choreographer and director Mai Zhuang, to the actors, are all purely from Hong Kong.
Even the dubbing was done by dubbing artists from the 1990s, vowing to recreate the glory of Hong Kong films.
The producer announced at the premiere that as long as the box office exceeds 90 million, they will continue filming the third part.
On the day of the release, Li Chen accompanied Ms. Liu and donated two movie tickets.
"How long has it been since you watched a movie with me?" Miss Liu drove Li Chen in a Ferrari, her hair flying and her face radiant.
"You're pregnant, and I haven't watched the movie. It's like I watched it with someone else instead of you." Li Chen sat in the passenger seat, both of them wearing black and white.
Miss Liu was playing music and her body was swaying gently to the rhythm. She was in a very happy mood and the smile on her face was sweet to her heart.
"Poor Director Li, it's okay. I hope Sister Er will watch it with you once and for all today!"
"It's a beautiful idea. Just watch one. How many more do you plan to watch?"
"Oh, it's a pity that "Jingjue Ancient City" has been cancelled. Otherwise, why not support your own film?" Liu Yifei pouted with regret on her face.
"Under the Ancient City" became the only domestic blockbuster to gross over 500 million in the entire summer season.
It was released for 41 days and grossed 515 million, with a total global box office of 145 million. It was a good start for the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series.
Sitting in the cinema after a long absence, Ms. Liu seemed extremely excited. She was chattering non-stop after watching "Overheard 2".
The attendance rate was pretty good. Before they even entered the venue, Li Chen and Liu Yifei heard several little girls coming towards Yanzu.
It seems that appearance is justice and is suitable for both men and women.
"Why do I feel that Liu Qingyun looks the same no matter what she plays?"
Li Chen glanced at his wife in surprise and whispered in her ear: "She is indeed my wife. I think so too."
"That's right, it's up to the husband to do as he pleases!" The two of them were sitting in the last row, whispering to each other without anyone noticing.
"It's the husband singing and the wife following!"
"It's all the same, but this little swallow looks so awkward inside."
"Did you see it too? Choosing a mainland actress is just a gesture. It's a pity that Huang Yi is not Huang Yimei."
"What Huang Yimei?"
"It's nothing. I mean that although the Hong Kong industry has always boasted of being brilliant, neither I nor Hua Yi, and even Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige know that they are yesterday's news and irreversible."
"It's just that good resources don't go to these second-tier mainland actresses, so it's up to you and me to be used as vases in Hong Kong films."
"Mr. Zhou went to this premiere, maybe with this in mind. After all, she is her own boss now."
Li Chen looked at the big screen and suddenly remembered that Zhou Xun seemed to have acted in "Overheard 3".
Liu Yifei suddenly felt enlightened and silently glanced at her husband's side face.
I secretly thought that if it weren't for him, I might be like Huang Yi, Mr. Zhou and others, having to put down a lot for a movie.
Liu Yifei suddenly understood that just like the choice of Li Zhengyi in "Resident Evil", it was actually just a gesture.
After all, there are only 20 import quotas every year. It may be easier for a Chinese actor to be introduced by China Film.
The two of them slipped away quietly before the movie ended.
After leaving the cinema, Li Chen was surprised that Miss Liu didn't yell to continue watching.
After getting in the car, Li Chen took off his mask and joked: "I thought you wanted to watch at least two movies." "Don't watch it, it's just a husband and a wife." Miss Liu smiled, stepped on the accelerator, and the red Ferrari looked like a ball. Speeding away like fire.
Li Chen didn't know why his wife's attitude changed so quickly, but it was probably a good thing.

"The Chinese-language movie "Overheard 2", which was released on August 18, successfully won a "good start" with a box office of 18 million in the mainland on its first day. The box office in the mainland in the first four days was 81 million. At the same time, the film debuted in Hong Kong. Zhou received 7 million (HKD)”
""Overheard 2" sold 81 million in the first four days in the mainland, and there is no doubt that it will exceed 200 million. It has become the second summer blockbuster to break 200 million after "The Ancient City". The current goal is to hit 300 million."< br>
"This is also the highest-grossing opening weekend record for a film ever produced by Burna Films."
This is not the first time for uncles and nephews Lu Zheng and Jingtian to come to Splendid Diamond.
But every time he came, Lu Zheng felt an indescribable sense of frustration.
"Director Li, Mr. Lu and Miss Jing are here."
"Invite them in."
Li Chen knew exactly why the uncle and nephew came.
It's just for the female character in "Vientiane Island" other than Liu Yifei.
In his previous life, this was the role played by Kageta Lai.
"Director Li, Tian Tian and I came in too hastily. Don't be surprised." Lu Zheng said with a smile as soon as he entered the door.
Jingtian followed Lu Zheng and shouted politely: "Hello, Brother Li."
Li Chen stood up and walked around the desk and said with a smile: "Please take a seat. I'm sorry to say that I'm not surprised. But Mr. Lu, just don't blame me for not going to your premiere."
Lu Zheng and Jing Tian looked slightly embarrassed. In less than a second, Lu Zheng returned to normal and laughed: "I won't mention it anymore, I won't mention it anymore."
""Warring States" taught me a lesson. Big productions really can't be made just by spending money."
Jingtian said timidly from the side: "Thank you, Brother Li. My uncle and I both know that you didn't come to the premiere for my own good."
"Yes, when Directors Li and Xu didn't take this film, I should have reacted. It would have hurt Tiantian."
"Uncle!"
"Ah, haha, no more talking, no more talking, it's all over."
Li Chen glanced at Jingtian, and he still admired the girl's courage.
For her, "Warring States" not only accepted the immature acting skills that were bombarded, but also the gossip about her and Lu Zhengzi's fictitious relationship and speculation about her life experience.
That internet storm was almost comparable to a Category 8 hurricane.
"Director Li, I have listened to your advice now and started from a young age. I recently cast a movie, so I think I have some connection with you."
"What show?" Li Chen asked smoothly.
"The director of "The Rescuers" is Lin Zicong, who was supported by Andy Lau's Rising Star Director Program."
Li Chen suddenly realized that this was the origin.
Although he has never seen or heard of this drama, because of this, I am afraid that the box office of this drama will not be too high and the reputation will not be very good.
There are very few comedians who can direct and act like Stephen Chow, and Lam Chi Chong is nothing.
No need to guess, this drama must still be starring Jing Tian.
Li Chen didn't know what to say.
Seeing that Li Chen was silent, Jing Tian was so sensitive that he asked: "Brother Li, are you not optimistic about Director Zicong?"
Li Chen wanted to laugh in his heart, this little girl is really a straight person.
Not only am I not optimistic about Lin Zicong, I am even less optimistic about your uncle, a layman who pretends to be an expert.
