At that time, Tan Delin was sitting at the premiere with his girlfriend Xiao Min.
Previously, he had heard that this was a humorous action film with two heroes coexisting.
But he still had doubts in his heart, can the scenes of this movie be distributed evenly?
After all, in the movie starring Cheng Long, his presence is too strong, like a towering mountain.
Even Du Sheng, who is so popular, may be completely overshadowed by him.
And this is a comedy film, making jokes is Cheng Long’s specialty!
However, as the film lights up, all doubts dissipate like light smoke.
The opening scene was when the three bandit gangs led by Du Sheng landed from Xiao Sa on the rooftop and staged a robbery drama that was terrible and robbed!
What is even more surprising is that he also took the initiative to ask the security guard to call the police!
This move instantly made the audience understand that this character has a unique subversion.
Later, seeing that the cute baby was kidnapped by the gang and almost suffered misfortune, Tan Delin suddenly felt a tight clenched force coming from his arm.
He turned his head and saw that his girlfriend Xiao Min's eyes were already wet, and tears were rolling in her eyes.
The character of Octopus was a romantic villain at first, which should be annoying, but Tan Delin found that he couldn't hate it anyway.
This is not that Du Sheng did not perform well.
On the contrary, he felt that Du Sheng portrayed this character very vividly, as if he had given the character a new life, and even had a unique charm.
But the question is, bad people are bad people after all, why don’t they feel disgusted with him at all?
Is it because he is handsome and cool enough?
Tan Delin shook his head, thinking that he was not Du Sheng's loyal fan like his girlfriend.
However, this setting lacks a bit of outrageous malice and a bit of complex humanity, as if a ray of light is shining in the darkness.
Suddenly, the audience burst into warm applause, bringing Tan Delin's thoughts back to reality.
I saw a group of the main creative staff coming on stage to thank him, and the atmosphere was jubilant.
There is no doubt that "Baby Project" has won high recognition from the audience.
Although the middle part is a little depressing, the final ending is successful, Gao Yuanyuan and Mengbao are unscathed, and the villain is beaten up in one fell swoop.
The whole film has a compact rhythm, full of various humorous plots and funny dialogues, which makes people excited while making people watch it.
What is more worth mentioning is that the role played by Cheng Long this time is no longer the kind of invincible heroic existence.
Instead, it is more real and three-dimensional, like ordinary people living around us.
He will also experience troughs and face setbacks.
Du Sheng plays Octopus, who is a romantic and spends money, and in the process of living with his baby, he is gradually moved by his innocence and finally completes his self-salvation.
Especially when he was busy and in a state of trouble when taking care of his baby, he had a reversal comedy effect compared to the subsequent thrilling fights.
Many critics have already given high praise to the movie:
"Cheng Long and Du Sheng's peak teaming up, don't watch the regret series!"
"The two superstars Cheng Long and Du Sheng jointly created a 150 million-dollar production, which is coming!"
"Du Sheng's action and acting skills are flying in the film, and his passion and tears are intertwined!"
Under such high popularity, major media have heard the news and joined the ranks of reports, trying to get a share of the pie.
Although Yinghuang Pictures is no longer as brilliant as its peak, as a veteran film company, it still has an influence that cannot be underestimated in Xiangjiang and Southeast Asia.
The mainland is not giving in too much, and the streets and alleys are occupied by posters and slogans of "Baby Plan".
From audio and video stores to bus stops, from subway stations to shopping centers, the movie can be seen everywhere.
Du Sheng's fans naturally became the first main force to watch the movie.
At the beginning of the movie, the girls screamed excitedly:
"Brother Sheng is so handsome, so handsome that he has no friends!"
And at the end, they covered their mouths and sobbed in a low voice:
"Brother Sheng is so pitiful. I feel sorry for my brother. I really hope I can have a monkey with him!"
In addition to Du Sheng's loyal fans, many ordinary viewers couldn't help but sigh after watching the movie:
"It turns out that in addition to being wonderful fighting scenes, Du Sheng is also very humorous and witty!"
"What is even more impressive is the character he portrays, which makes people love and hate!"
"Now young people can even make new tricks in crime, and I have to admire their imagination!"
Soon, this movie became a hot topic in major online forums and Internet cafes.
People who have watched movies always like to show off their movie viewing experience, even with an inexplicable sense of superiority, as if they are already at the forefront of the trend.
Those teenagers who had never watched "Baby Project" suddenly realized that they seemed to be out of date.
This atmosphere directly drives a wave.
But in the lively context, there are some doubts.
"Du Sheng is determined to rush to the world stage and looks down on the Oriental Film Market at all."
"Du Sheng attended the premiere of the "Baby Plan" movie and was rushing to fly to the Lighthouse Country like oiling, and the fans in the East were extremely disappointed."
"Just busy with publicity abroad and ignore domestic audiences. Isn't this arrogance and pretending to be foreigners?"
"The promotional song of "Baby Project" is actually an English song? The reason behind this makes people really think too much."
"Feng Xiaogang speaks out: The moon is bright in my hometown, no matter how high I fly, I cannot forget my roots. "Night Banquet" is the original oriental movie."
"Xu Qian said: The core of "Night Banquet" is an oriental classical aesthetic, which perfectly demonstrates the essence of ancient oriental culture."
"The Night Banquet can be regarded as a strange painting of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. In contrast, the Baby Plan is still the heroism of Hollywood at heart."
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a malicious suppression initiated by Huayi or the "Night Banquet" team at the premiere of "Baby Plan".
Most of the press releases intend to arouse public confrontation and give Du Sheng and the Baby Plan a false stigma.
Du Sheng didn't know about this for the time being.
When these reports were overwhelming, he was on the plane and naturally had no time to respond to these groundless accusations.
...
In the capital, Feng Xiaogang's home.
He was sitting on the soft sofa in the living room with Xu Qian, chatting leisurely.
Seeing that these reports were released online, Feng Xiaogang was in a good mood and said:
"The man surnamed Du is still a little too young, and this time he was so scared that he dared not speak.
If this round of publicity offensive continues, he is most likely as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. ”
Xu Qian's acting skills at this moment are simply the best actor.
She stared at Feng Xiaogang, her eyes flashing with admiration, and her tone was full of admiration:
"My husband is so clever. He can see through the loopholes in the promotion of "Baby Plan" at a glance.
It has too great ambitions and is devoted to overseas markets, but it does not know that such a choice is actually missing the bottom line. ”
Feng Xiaogang was praised by Xu Qian, and he relaxed and said comfortably:
"This kid Du Sheng was fascinated by the halo of international superstars and could not find North.
He has little experience and does not understand the true depth of the truth! ”
He urged with great enthusiasm:
"Read the comments online to me, I want to know how netizens criticize him."
Xu Qian quickly got up from the sofa, picked up the laptop that had been prepared, and opened Tianya and Doubian portals with ease.
Huayi's main cooperative network platform, Tianya and Doubian are one of the main positions.
"The Baby Plan attaches so much importance to international box office, but reduces publicity investment in China. What is behind it?"
Xu Qian clicked on this report, and the following comments were filled with thousands.
Her fingertips drew elegant curves on her tablet:
"There is also this title, 'International flights carry not only luggage, but also sincerity for the local film market'" She deliberately enlarged an article about analyzing the promotional song, with a screenshot accompanied by a notice of the target:
When all the notes are in suits, who will compose music for the Tang Dynasty costume?
She had a smile on her lips, and she wanted to read the comment happily, but when she looked closely, the more she looked, the ugly her complexion became.
The storm that should have surging waves turned into cheering fireworks that were beating all over the screen.
The hot comments "Du Sheng traveled to Hollywood with the Dragon Biao, this is the cultural output!" were pushed to the top.
The number of likes is like a rocket rising steadily.
A netizen's metaphor is particularly sharp:
"Some people are guarding the dry well and mocking the flying eagles, but they don't know that no matter how exquisite the dragon carved at the bottom of the well is, it is just a mural."
Moreover, most of the comments are praising Du Sheng and ridiculing "Night Banquet".
Feng Xiaogang keenly captured the strangeness in Xu Qian's expression and couldn't help asking:
"What's wrong? Is it because I complained too much, which makes you look dazzling?"
Xu Qian tried hard to calm down his emotions, squeezed out a reluctant smile, and carefully selected a few "good reviews":
"Du Sheng is a guy who admires and pretends to be charming foreigners. He is born to look down on Orientals."
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
"He is particularly keen on writing English songs. The more capable a person is, the more he is, the more he is!"
"Boycott the Baby Plan, and we all support the domestic high-quality movie "Night Banquet" together!"
Listening to these words, Feng Xiaogang closed his eyes. Although his face was calm, he raised his mouth and betrayed him.
However, before the joy spread, Xu Qian's voice came to an abrupt end.
Feng Xiaogang opened his eyes, his tone was a little surprised:
"Aren't there a few thousand pieces? I have to draw inspiration from the comments."
Xu Qian stammered, not knowing how to answer.
The criticisms on the Internet came and went, and finally I saw that the navy was passively lazy and started to rush around.
Seeing that she was silent, Feng Xiaogang took a tolerant attitude:
"Forget it, I'll take a look."
He took the computer, glanced over the comment section, and his face suddenly sank.
The comment section is indeed very lively, but it is very different from expectations.
"Is it not patriotic to release an English album? This press release is obviously bought by the crew of "Night Banquet". "
"I'm so laughing to death, saying "Night Banquet" is a pure oriental movie?
Isn't it adapted from Shakespeare's famous play "Hamlet"? ”
"Who gave the Huayi Navy the idea of attacking the opponent with "patriotism"?
"Baby Plan" is clearly a joint venture film supported by the state, and using this method is really ridiculous! ”
"Do you think "Night Banquet" doesn't want to go international? That's because they don't have that ability, okay!"
"No, no, "Night Banquet" has indeed gone international. Don't you see how humble it was when Mr. Huayi took it to the Berlin Film Festival to promote it."
"Also, it is said that Chongxian's charm to foreigners is authentic. The soundtrack name is all in English, and some translations are ridiculously wrong. It's really ridiculous!"
"This film is about the essence of the Eastern Essence of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, but secretly it is the prince's revenge and indifference, and it is a piece of shit!"
Feng Xiaogang could no longer maintain the so-called "high-class" demeanor, and his hands were trembling with anger.
He checked the comments under the major headlines one after another.
As a result, it was found that more than 80% of them were supporting Du Sheng and mocking Hua Yi and "Night Banquet".
Even the platforms they carefully planned for Tianya and Doubian were not spared.
Not to mention other Internet positions.
Netizens spontaneously defended Du Sheng, and Feng Xiaogang's attack strategy seemed to have become a farce of humiliating himself.
His hands were shaking harder, as if every comment was stinging his nerves.
Xu Qian was silent for a moment and whispered:
"Du Sheng has mastered three major streaming media resources, and he has more naval forces than us.
These voices that support him were probably created by him for money. ”
Feng Xiaogang agreed after hearing this:
"Yes, this is the response of Star Media. After all, the positions of both sides have long been different.
Moreover, they were afraid of the accusation of "respecting pretending to be charming foreigners", so they covered up their true voices through public opinion. ”
He paused and added:
"We must increase our firepower and tell Huayi public opinion that we will continue to spend money to report!"
Although Xu Qian had a grievance in his heart and didn't know how to vomit, he had long been accustomed to Feng Xiaogang's impotence and stood up silently to arrange it.
Huayi and the crew of "Night Banquet" then released more offensives.
Although most netizens are still on Du Sheng's side, it has indeed caused some controversy.
After all, some things are undeniable:
For example, Du Sheng did create an English album and held a concert.
In addition, he spent much more time promoting movies abroad than domestic activities.
These arguments briefly incited some melon-eating audiences to follow suit and criticize Du Sheng and "Baby Plan".
However, such a sound slowly dissipated after only a day.
"Attend the premiere of "Night Banquet"?"
After Du Sheng landed in North America, he received a call from Ye Yanzhi and said with a smile:
"Huanya is quite attentive. She sent an invitation letter. Did you go to the scene last night?"
"Night Banquet" held a grand premiere in Beijing last night.
With Feng Xiaogang's personality, he will definitely not invite Du Sheng and Ye Yongzhi on his own initiative.
This is obviously the arrangement of the Universal A.
Ye Yanzhi responded with a chuckling:
"How could I go?
Huan A's deputy Dong Zhuangcheng not only sent an invitation letter, but also tactfully asked me not to make things too ugly on the phone.
But you know, Huayi and Huanya each invested a lot of money in the movie "Night Banquet".
So I haven't taken action yet, so I'll make a decision after contacting you. ”
When it comes to Huan A, Du Sheng has a lot of connections with this company.
For example, "Initial D" is produced by Huanya, and behind the Hong Kong Academy Awards, Huanya is also driving it.
Du Sheng said calmly:
"Which Huayi used to label us as a 'Prespect for the Foreigners', and when he poured ink on us, wasn't Huanya watching the show?
Now that we are about to pour it back, we are in a hurry to hand over the veil? ”
Ye Yanzhi added:
"Zhuang Cheng explained to me the press release published by Huayi before, saying that he was not aware of it."
Du Sheng said casually while getting into the car:
"No matter whether he is really confused or pretends to be confused, the fireworks we prepared must bloom on good times.
According to the previous plan, if you need to post the report, please post it. ”
"Baby Plan" and "Night Banquet" were released on the same day, and the two films inevitably became direct competitors.
What's more, Feng Xiaogang has taken the lead in launching an offensive after the premiere of "Baby Plan", and Du Sheng certainly would not sit idly by.
So a special "gift" was prepared for the premiere of "Night Banquet".
