Chapter 417 Nothing in life except death
March 27, Saturday.
9 a.m., Big Star Cinema.
Zeng Li, Da Mao and others all came for the 9:30 show. They were not all scattered in the same hall because the tickets given to them by Ding Chunling were relatively scattered.
At 9:30, "Going to Heaven" is to be screened in Hall 3.
Because the entire hall was given free tickets, which meant that everyone came here because they were interested in "Going to Heaven", so the discussion in the entire hall was relatively harmonious.
“Actually, I mainly want to see how Lin Xing performs??”
“I’m not very interested in Lin Xing. I mainly want to see the theme of this movie. Interested."
"Yes, I have only read about the funeral industry in online articles, but it has not been mentioned in movies and TV dramas."
......
After Zeng Li entered the venue, the discussion in the hall was quite lively.
Some people are just like Zeng Li. This time she came to see the screening of "Going to Heaven" just for Lin Xing. This is for Lin Xing's fans.
There are also some who are not interested in Lin Xing, but are only interested in the funeral industry.
Of course, there are some who believe in Lin Xing's works alone. Most of the people in this hall are like this.
Because everyone feels that Lin Xing has never acted in a bad movie, they all feel that this "Going to Heaven" will not disappoint everyone.
"Sister Li, do you think Brother Xing will suddenly appear in our scene???"
A fan whispered to Zeng Li: "I remember the previous "Killing Aden" When working on "Sunspot", Brother Xing always makes surprises like this."
"No, Brother Xing is still filming a TV series in Shanghai."< br>
Zeng Li shook her head slightly and said: "He doesn't have time at all. Besides, this is a screening after all. If Brother Xing really wants to show up, he should show up during the premiere."
The fan said with some disappointment: "That's right, but we shouldn't be eligible to attend the premiere."
"Who can say for sure??"
Zeng Li said a little funny: "We are very lucky to be able to participate in the screening. You have to know that there are only so many shows in total. What is the probability? ? "
The young fan also smiled and said: "It is indeed, Don't be dissatisfied."
Big Mao whispered: "Stop chatting, it will start in a moment. We don't want to make any noise, and we don't want to video or take pictures. Don't slander Brother Xing."
Many times fans pay for the behavior of idols.
This is not only true for other low-traffic fresh meat, but also for Lin Xing.
The bigger the forest is, the more birds there are. The more traffic there is, the more fans there are.
Fortunately, Lin Xing did not go to a fan club, nor did he go to extremes. Moreover, he bought off all his peripherals, and even his autographs and photos were really worthless.
Not to mention fans, even Lin Xing doesn’t know how many photos he has signed.
Because of this, Lin Xing doesn’t have any peripherals now that some fan circle leaders can make money from, and even several proxy shoots have been sued by Lin Xing.
Again, Lin Xing does not need such traffic, so he is often hacked now and some agents are hacking him.
You need to know how many proxies make money from celebrities. If you look at airports, train stations and other places, how many proxies take various photos of celebrities, and sometimes even The order is all messed up.
But they made money, but it was the fans who were scolded in the end. Not only that, even the celebrities were scolded.
Because of this, Lin Xing has always been prohibited from taking photos on behalf of others. He always sends signed photos to any event he attends. No matter what kind of person he is, as long as he takes a photo with Lin Xing, Lin Xing will always come. No one refuses.
Some artists may not have time, some artists may not have the energy, and some artists may feel that they are superior, so they will not be approachable and take photos with passers-by at all.
But coincidentally, Lin Xing is very energetic. Not only that, in addition to filming, when he is in dramas or experiencing life, if he is recognized by passers-by, Lin Xing will really take the trouble to take photos with others.
Compared to the top celebrities who hire countless fans, support club presidents, and even ask studios to do something just for the sake of exposure, Lin Xing is indeed an alternative.
And precisely because Lin Xing is such an outlier, most of his fans are not extreme.
Because extreme fans will never appear in the fan club group.
The truth is simple. There is no room for extremes in Lin Xing’s fan club. You can’t be extreme even if you want to be.
Because in these unofficial fan clubs, everyone can say whatever they want as long as they don't curse.
There are no rules here.
We are all normal people, not digital beings, leeks that have been cut off.
Because of this, support club presidents like Zeng Li and Da Mao are not extreme. In addition to the two of them, there are 5 fans watching "Going to Heaven".
But these five fans have not been reviewed in any way. Some personal accounts cannot follow other celebrities, some can only follow Lin Xing, etc.
But that doesn't mean there are no requirements.
The requirement is that you at least have a certain understanding of Lin Xing, and you also like movies. It is not necessary for those who are in trouble or just want to attend the screening to show off.
It is precisely because of this that Da Mao gave away five people to Yan Xiaofang.
This Yan Xiaofang is also just a high school student. However, because she goes to high school in the imperial capital and does not need to study like a prison, her parents don't do much to her, so any of her hobbies are given full attention by her parents. Supported.
In this way, even though Yan Xiaofang is not very young, she is also a small V on Weibo and Bilibili, because her evaluation of many movies is very accurate.
Even many film critics call Yan Xiaofang "Little Old Zhong".
After all, Yan Xiaofang’s style is really similar to Lao Zhong, especially when everyone learned that Yan Xiaofang was still a high school student, they were even more shocked.
It really belongs to the future.
Lao Zhong even forwarded a film review written by Yan Xiaofang before and wrote: "Well written, I think you already have your own style, you are you, just write it according to your own style Okay.”
This is the highest level of star chasing.
Moreover, Yan Xiaofang doesn't like Lin Xing because of how powerful Lin Xing is. She is also not a person who relies on appearance. She only likes Lin Xing because Lao Zhong supports Lin Xing.
Moreover, Yan Xiaofang really felt that Lin Xing was definitely a cheating legend.
This is too strong.
Because of this, Yan Xiaofang has also written more about Lin Xing in the past three years, and the style of her writing has gradually become different from that of Lao Zhong.
After all, in many cases, the styles cannot always be similar. If they are really similar, then to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than living in the shadow of Lao Zhong for the rest of his life.
This is also why Lao Zhong specifically warned Yan Xiaofang.
The same is true. She does not want the young Yan Xiaofang to blindly follow her own style and eventually go off the beaten track.
Fortunately, Yan Xiaofang is really up to par, and now she is one of the few people who started her account based on interest.
Of course, this interest is also determined by the economic conditions of Yan Xiaofang's family.
Originally, Yan Xiaofang was looking forward to meeting Lin Xing at this screening, but she gave up after listening to what Zeng Li said.
She is now thinking about watching the movie "Going to Heaven". You should know that Yan Xiaofang is still a high school student now. She may not be able to understand this kind of life and death.
But "Going to Heaven" is not banned for 18-year-olds after all, and this movie is actually quite suitable for minors.
After all, the protagonist is Zhang Xiaomai, who is in the first grade of elementary school.
Exactly, it doesn’t matter to a high school student like Yan Xiaofang.
What's more important is that Lin Xing told Meng Yan from the beginning that this is not a literary film, so don't promote it according to the routine of a literary film.
If nothing else, at the very least, you can’t do anything so-called forceful.
Because in many cases the more extreme one is, the more it means abandoning the public.
In Lin Xing's opinion, "Going to Heaven" is a movie suitable for both young and old, even though many children do not understand death, and many people even do not know how to talk to children about death. , then this movie is quite suitable.
This is also a propaganda method.
More importantly, "Going to Heaven" talks about death in an optimistic and even comedic way. In other words, this movie is not about death, but about cherishing.
Many times, we always feel that there is still a lot of time in the future, and we are always entangled and internally consumed by all kinds of trivial things, but in the face of death, these are really nothing.
Most of the time, ten years may really pass by in a blink of an eye, so the ancients said that filial piety should be fulfilled as early as possible. It is also very right.
Because most people lose their parents when they want to raise their children.
And there are more people who don’t know how to cherish it. They don’t repent until they really face death, but it’s already too late.
At this moment, many viewers in Hall 3 are far from having this realization. They are just waiting to watch such a movie.
This should be the first funeral-themed movie. Many viewers present had different ideas, but those who could attend the screening naturally liked movies.
3 minutes later, "Going to Heaven" officially started.
It starts with a funeral. Mo Sanmei, played by Lin Xing, appears to help a deceased person perform plastic surgery and repair the body.
Because the old man died in his dream, and he was only accompanied by a granddaughter, and this granddaughter was the orphan Xiao Wu played by Zhang Maimai.
The child did not understand that the old man had passed away. She only thought that her grandmother was asleep.
A funeral made Mo Sanmei and Xiao Wen begin to have a bond.
......
"Third sister, I have to enlighten you. If you want to be more open-minded, what's the big deal? Aren't you the one who said you eat the food of dead people??"
“Isn’t it your girlfriend who dumped you??”
"Isn't it because your girlfriend cuckolded you??"
"Isn't it because the cuckold is richer and better off than you??"
" Don’t you just eat the food of dead people, have been in jail, have no car, no house, and no savings?”
……
“Shut up, you two, you are just trying to make excuses.” Or is it disgusting? ”
...
When Mo Sanmei found out that he had been cheated on, and then tried to pretend to be cheerful and expressed that he didn't care, at the same time, his employees, or his two friends, persuaded him, which made Mo Sanmei collapse. .
As for the theater, there was laughter.
The next step is the interaction between Xiao Wu and Mo Sanmei. A child who has no parents since she was a child and only depends on her grandmother. She really feels that her grandmother is being used by Mo Sanmei’s funeral parlor. Captured.
This is a small episode in the film, and as previously announced, Xiao Wu has a lot of roles, and she is even considered the absolute leading female.
This movie can really make people who watch the movie feel something.
Nothing is permanent.
And the movie is shown through several funerals.
In the first funeral, the old man passed away in his dream. A group of people held the funeral lively. Everyone was laughing and joking as if the funeral was for living people and for living people to see.
Even if the son is sad, he can only be sad for a while, because he is not just a son, he is also a father, and he needs to think about his son.
The second funeral was about a girl. She wanted to pursue her dream bravely, but her parents wanted her to stabilize and stop being unrealistic. They even threatened her with death. In the end, the filial girl was helpless. He agreed, but when he was in despair, he was hit by a large truck and died.
Life is impermanent.
The third funeral was when the old man wanted to hold a funeral for himself in advance, and when he faked his death, a farce broke out between his son and his daughter.
It’s all because of the demolition fees.
Raising children and preparing for old age ultimately depends on luck.
But the fourth funeral was organized by the ex-girlfriend for her husband. This really fulfilled that sentence. No one can guarantee that he can be arrogant for the rest of his life.
Originally Mo Sanmei didn’t want to agree, but since ancient times, China has said that the deceased is the most important, and Mo Sanmei already has respect for her profession. At the same time, Mo Sanmei also has a relationship with her. The father reconciled.
But again, when the relationship between father and son heated up, Mr. Mo's life also came to an end.
The big things in life, the big things in life, there are no big things in life except death.
This sentence deeply resonated with many people present.
Even these five funerals did not feel sad, nor did they even feel heavy, because it was like all the changes in life, and we seemed to witness these like following Mo Sanmei and Xiaowen.
When the movie ended and the theater lights turned on, many people still didn’t stand up for a long time.
Cherish the people in front of you.
The paintings of Lin Xing and Zhang Maimai also appear at the end, as well as the stars in the sky.
As for the easter eggs, they are about the lives of Mo Sanmei and Xiaowen, as well as the atmosphere of life on the streets of this city.
world.
The easter egg brings everyone back to the human world.
As often said in the lyrics, every star in the sky has loved our people, so we must cherish the present even more.
Yan Xiaofang may not be able to understand death, but she thinks this movie is good. ,
As for Zeng Li, she only has one feeling.
That's what they say in the movie: There's nothing important in life except death.
