Chapter 189 Bullfight Released
The movie Bullfight is a low-budget movie, and the director Guan Feng is not a well-known director.
The male protagonist Huang Bo has limited popularity.
The heroine is Yan Ni, but she doesn't have too many roles. The main role is still with Huang Bo.
With this lineup, it is impossible to hit the National Day schedule where great people gather. Let’s not talk about whether we can get in. Even if we can get in, we won’t get many films.
Even if you get the platoon, you will be beaten badly by your opponents at the same time.
Therefore, it is a wise decision to stagger the popular schedule and set the release date in September.
But even so, the competition is still fierce because there are many people who have the same idea as them.
September 1st.
In the cinema, Qin Chuan attended the bullfighting premiere.
That afternoon, after choosing a more formal outfit, Qin Chuan came to the scene.
He comes for both public and private matters.
This drama is invested by Qin Chao Entertainment, and it is also the first time that Huang Bo has been the protagonist. It would be impossible not to come.
"Brother-in-law!"
At the entrance of the cinema, Qin Chuan raised his hand to say hello before he even approached.
The media reporters in the middle of the aisle were stunned for a moment, and then the cameras kept clicking.
They didn't expect to see Qin Chuan just by collecting some red envelopes and coming here.
Did you even call me brother-in-law?
Is his brother-in-law in charge?
"Ogawa!"
The one who answered was Huang Bo.
After taking a few steps forward to greet him, Huang Bo patted Qin Chuan heavily on the shoulder: "Why are you here? Aren't you busy?"
"I'm not busy. I happen to be at home during this period. Besides, this is your first male lead, so you have to come in no matter how busy you are."
After greeting Huang Bo, Qin Chuan extended his hand to Guan Xi again: "Hello, Director Guan."
"Hello, hello." Guan Hu greeted him with a smile.
He is still very patient and enthusiastic towards the sponsor dad.
"Wishing you a great box office success."
"Thank you."
After chatting at the entrance of the theater for a while, Qin Chuan walked into the hall and was guided by the staff to sit down in the front row.
When some spectators saw it was him, they exclaimed and shouted his name.
Qin Chuan stood up and raised his hands to the audience: "Thank you everyone for supporting bullfighting."
Ten minutes later, after Qin Chuan, Wang Baoqiang arrived.
At that time, he was already the Golden Eagle Award winner, and also had the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer and the Best Actor Award at foreign film festivals.
Very popular.
There was also a commotion after entering the venue.
No one expected that an unknown niche movie would be supported by two big names.
"Brother Chuan."
Wang Baoqiang ran to Qin Chuan and sat down.
"Baoqiang, what have you been doing lately? Where did you make your fortune?"
Before the movie started, Qin Chuan and Wang Baoqiang were chatting.
Wang Baoqiang chuckled and said: "Singing, doing public service announcements, promoting TV series, and then building a house in my hometown."
This year he broadcast a TV series called My Brother Is Shunliu, an anti-Japanese film.
Most of the rest of the time is spent doing charity work, filming public service advertisements, and occasionally appearing on shows and singing.
In his hometown, he rebuilt a stylish house for his parents.
I originally bought a house in the city, and after living there for a few days, my parents came back. They said it was not fun to live in the city without any acquaintances, and it was not cost-effective to pay for food and drink every day, as well as paying property and parking fees.
I almost fell into depression.
When I returned to the village, I immediately felt energetic and cheerful every day.
Thinking of this, he simply bought a piece of land in the village and built a more stylish house for his parents to make them happy.
Now, their family is the richest man in the village.
Wang Baoqiang said happily, but Qin Chuan felt something wrong: "The TV series was filmed last year, right? No filming this year?"
How come such a popular artist still has a one-year window? Something is wrong.
Baoqiang leaned back in his chair and smiled: "I took too many pictures before. You know, I haven't rested in a few years. I want to relax this year."
He was kept in cold storage and said he was relaxing. It is estimated that the contract is about to expire and has not been renewed, so Huayi is not ready to praise him anymore
However, Qin Chuan did not expose it either: "I have a movie this winter. , I’m looking for a leading actor, do you want to come over?”
Wang Baoqiang waved his hand and said, "Brother, I'm really on vacation, you don't have to help me like this."
"I'm not helping you. I really have a play that I plan to direct and star in. I just need a leading actor. Will you come or not?"
"You really didn't help me?"
"Not helpful."
"Then I'll do it!"
Qin Chuan said: "You don't even read the script?"
"You don't have to look at it, our relationship is such that even if you let me make pornographic films, I will make them." "You're so loyal!"
Before the movie even started, Qin Chuan had already decided on another male protagonist who was on the road to embarrassment.
This is considered a fire.
Now that the actors are done, the preliminary preparations for this drama are 50% complete.
After a while, Huang Bo and Guan Yu returned to the cinema and the movie started.
This movie is adapted from a novel. It tells the story of a group of Eighth Route Army troops who came to Ma Muchi, a fortress village in the Yimeng Mountains, during the war.
They were accompanied by cows donated by international friends. The villagers who have lived in the mountains for many years have never seen such a black and white cow with abundant milk, and they are surprised.
Soon, the Japanese Funajiri troops approached, and the Eighth Route Army made an emergency retreat. Before leaving, they entrusted the cows to the villagers for feeding.
The poor and timid villagers were worried that the cows would bring disaster, so they selected the cattle breeders by drawing red beans. The little widow Jiuer helped Niu Er draw lots, and finally Niu Er became the unlucky "lucky one..."
Jiuer is played by Yan Ni and Niu Er is played by Huang Bo.
The movie is quite funny at the beginning, taking the comedy route, making people laugh and at the same time reminisce about something, which is the complexity of human nature.
In the middle of the development of the story, the Japanese invaded the village and the comedy turned into tragedy.
The whole village was massacred, corpses were everywhere, men and old people were killed, broken arms and limbs were everywhere.
Jiuer, who loved to be funny, also died.
The women stripped off their clothes and disemboweled them.
In the whole village, only Niu Er, who went out to herd cattle, escaped the disaster. After seeing the tragic scene in the village, he could not say a word.
"ah!"
"ah!"
His feet slipped and he accidentally fell into the corpse pit. Niu Er collapsed.
The soul and psyche suffered a powerful impact.
It wasn't just Niu Er who was shocked. The audience in the cinema looked at this scene with mixed emotions and couldn't laugh.
This village is so miserable.
Those beasts who committed evil deeds are simply not human beings.
The quiet cinema was so quiet that Qin Chuan even heard a girl crying behind him.
Wang Baoqiang next to him clicked his tongue.
It not only laments the sorrow of that era, but also laments the power of Huang Bo's acting skills.
This dubbing actor is really buried.
It's a completely movie-level performance.
No, better than the movie king.
It doesn't look like it was acted.
I can't imagine how many years it would have taken Huang Bo to wait for such a role if he hadn't met Qin Chuan.
At the end of the movie, many years later, the unkempt Niu Er finally waited for the Eighth Route Army to return the cow.
Speaking in a dialect, he asked the soldiers to write him a monument.
"That's it, the name on the tombstone."
On the paper, the soldier wrote him the tomb of Niu Er.
After a strong wind, the paper was blown into pieces, and the two cows were pieced together. The two cows became two cows. He felt that they were almost the same.
This ending makes people feel sad again.
As the movie ended, the theater burst into applause. Slowly, the applause was like thunder.
Many people cried after reading it.
Director Guan Fu and starring Huang Bo stood up and bowed heavily to the audience.
Qin Chuan was also applauding. Isn't this kind of movie better than those weight-loss dramas in later generations that cost hundreds of millions to produce? Or the ones that claim to be worth a billion, but the whole film's special effects don't last more than one minute and are all long and smelly literary dialogues?
It’s so much better.
Qin Chuan is willing to lose this eight million, even if it is a loss.
"Thank you everyone, thank you."
After Guan Rui came on stage to thank everyone, he took Qin Chuan's place and bowed: "I would also like to thank Mr. Qin Chuan for his investment. Without him, there would be no this movie and there would not be such a good leading actor."
Huang Bo used the back door in this drama.
At first I didn't like it, but later I couldn't close my mouth.
He likes this kind of actor so much.
Qin Chuan not only sent him funds to solve his urgent need, but also sent him such a good actor.
The role of Niu Er was completely brought to life by Huang Bo.
It was only after Guan Xi spoke that the media audience present knew why Qin Chuan was here. It turned out to be an investor.
But he does have a good eye.
"No matter the director won the award, such a good movie will not be buried. I only contributed a little bit. The success of this movie mainly depends on the efforts of the director, actors, and behind-the-scenes staff... I hope everyone will support it." Bullfighting.”
"After watching this play, I was deeply shocked. Director, remember to come to me next time you have a play like this. I will act for free."
Qin Chuan and Wang Baoqiang each expressed their feelings about watching the movie.
