Chapter 298 "Hurricane" Extra Show
There were indeed many people at the scene shouting to join the show. Most of these people were called by friends during the show and only watched the last part, or even a few minutes.
“Please play it again, I haven’t finished watching it yet!”
“That’s right, how can I watch such a good movie just once!”
“Who can? Tell me what happened before?”
"It's a pity that I only watched the last two minutes, but it was so exciting. Staff, can you play it again!"
"Where are the people? Is anyone here? Staff, please play it again!" ”
“I swear, this is the coolest movie I have ever seen at the film festival. I must show it twice more.”
It is rare for the film festival to have audiences collectively request to replay it! Scene, this is so rare!
Soon, film festival staff came to the screening room and explained to the audience that the number of screenings every day was fixed and that a movie would be released next!
"I don't care, it has to be replayed. Can't you hear everyone's cries? Who wants to watch other movies? Anyway, I just want to watch "Taken"..."
Looking at the excitement of the crowd The audience did not dare to refuse forcefully, and the staff could only express that he needed to ask for permission.
"Then go quickly."
Zhang Chen looked at the audience in the theater with a smile on his face. This was simply the best reward for the movie.
How could the media who followed Cheng Long let go of such an opportunity? Each and every one of them turned their cameras on the rioting crowd.
"Let's go over there."
He can't control whether to join the show or not, but Cheng Long and others came to support him. As the main creator, he must go there to express his gratitude.
The group of people stood up and walked towards Cheng Long and others.
"Uncle Long, thank you for making a special trip~"
"Director Tang, Director Guan, thank you for coming to support me~"
"That's right, we are all compatriots~"
Zhang Chen, Tang Jili and Guan Jinpeng have not met each other before, but they must know each other. Even though it is the first time they meet, they greet each other familiarly. .
Liang Jiahui on the other side enthusiastically went up to hug everyone. To put it bluntly, these three people came here for his sake.
"Ah Hui, you are definitely going to be prosperous now, and "Hurricane Rescue" will definitely become a phenomenon-level movie~" Cheng Long's tone was a little sour.
“Haha, Aaron, do you regret it?”
"Fuck you~"
The two were laughing, and suddenly an English voice came from next to them: "Oh God, he is the protagonist of the movie~"
Then, Liang Jiahui found that he became the audience At the center of attention, countless people stretched their necks to look at him, some with very excited expressions.
Seeing that someone was about to rush over, Zhang Chen immediately jumped onto the rostrum and said loudly: "Everyone, calm down for a moment..."
His move really worked.
"Everyone, please wait a moment. I know that many people are not satisfied with watching it and want to watch it again. However, the rules of the film festival are that a movie can only be screened once a day. However, everyone has a strong will and the staff has already gone to ask for permission. I believe There will be results soon..."
While calming everyone's emotions in English, Zhang Chen quietly said to Liang Jiahui and others in Chinese: "You guys leave quickly~"
The last reminder is in It was said in Chinese, but the audience present could not understand it, and it did not cause any commotion.
While the audience's attention was attracted by Zhang Chen, the main creators hurriedly left with Cheng Long and others.
On the stage, Zhang Chen continued to ramble: "Hello everyone, I am the director of this movie. Do you like "Hurricane Rescue"?"
There was no other way. In order to divert attention, he could only treat this as a press conference.
How could the media in the audience miss such a good opportunity and take pictures of Zhang Chen? Some people even had the title in mind - ["Hurricane Rescue" is a hit in Venice, and the audience is He will not hesitate to cause trouble even if he joins the show].
Fortunately, Zhang Chen’s rescue didn’t last long, and the staff came.
“According to regulations, we can only show one movie per day per day, but since everyone is so enthusiastic, the film festival organizing committee is willing to make an exception and show one more show for "Taken", but it cannot be here... ”
The premiere of “Taken” at the Venetian Cinema on the Marconi seafront.
The Venice Cinema Palace includes four halls, four small halls and an open-air screening area, ensuring that participating films such as the main competition unit and the horizon unit can have more than three screenings.
Because "Taken" is a screening, it is arranged to be shown in a small hall...
The number of screenings in the small hall is fixed, and there are also scheduled screenings after "Taken" Other videos, so I can't add scenes here.
"Please move to the open-air screening area, where we will add another screening for you..."
The good news brought by the staff was cheered by the audience, and then A new round of phone calls began.
The audience gathered with their friends and told their relatives and friends about the good news of the additional show of "Rescue", hoping that they could also enjoy it together.
Somewhere near the cinema, Zhang Chen and others who received the call met Cheng Long and others who had been waiting for a long time.
"Sorry, sorry, no one expected this special situation to happen~"
As the owner of the movie, Zhang Chen kept apologizing, even though this matter had nothing to do with him in the first place.
Everyone exchanged pleasantries again.
"Tomorrow, there will be a party after the premiere of "Myth". Everyone should come and have a great time together~" Cheng Long invited everyone.
During the film festival, as long as the crew is not extremely poor, they will usually hold a cocktail party after the movie screening...
The film producers, filmmakers, and judges will usually be invited to attend. Of course, And the media.
The purpose is self-evident, either to sell films or to win awards.
But hosting a cocktail party is expensive, starting at at least 100,000 US dollars. Zhang Chen doesn’t want to host it anyway.
He originally didn't expect to sell films here, but had high hopes for Toronto a week later.
"It must be..."
People have come to support "Hurricane", of course they have to reciprocate the favor, and they can also have a meal on the way.
The food in Venice is really not that good, and it’s also expensive, just a few hundred euros.
Here, money is not money at all.
After agreeing, everyone left. Along the way, Guan Jinpeng seemed to be hesitant to speak.
When he was with Zhang Chen, he wanted to ask, how did you take that long shot?
But today was the first time the two met, and they were not familiar with each other. Moreover, it was Brother Cheng Long who was always talking, and he had no chance at all.
After leaving now, Tang Jili saw his thoughts and asked: "You were bored along the way. What were you thinking about?"
Now that we are all on our own, Guan Jinpeng no longer holds back at this time: "I have some doubts about the long shot in "Hurricane", and I want to ask him how he shot it, but I still don't know how to say it..."
Tang Jili nodded. He was also very interested in the long shot, but he had some questions.
“Don’t you think his long lens is weird?”
“Weird? Why is it weird?”
“I can’t tell, but I have thought about it myself. , I put myself into the role of Zhang Chen, but I never figured out how to arrange some places..."
After a pause, he added: "Some parts of the long lens are very strange, and they will suddenly change into close-ups..."
Guan Jinpeng suddenly realized: "You mean, you suspect that it is not a real long lens at all. But several shots were put together through editing?"
Tang Jili quickly covered his mouth and looked around: "This is just a guess on my part. I'm not sure either. Don't make such nonsense. Such words are very offensive."
Guan Jinpeng nodded in understanding. Generally speaking, long shots are a director's pride.
You slander a director’s long-shot fakery, this is a slap in the face, a mortal enemy~
Tang Jili was just guessing. If Zhang Chen heard it, there would be a rift.
Cheng Long next to him didn't care much about long shots. Seeing that the two of them had finished chatting, he asked: "Ji Li, how about Old Monster Xu's "Seven Swords"? ”
Cheng Long and Xu Laoguai have only collaborated once. In 1992, "Double Dragon Club" was a film to raise funds for the Hong Kong Directors Guild. All the cast and crew members who participated in the film were directors.
Tang Jili shook his head: "It's not very good. The rhythm of "Seven Swords" is obviously messed up. I don't know what the old weirdo thinks. He gave a long introduction to the seven weapons, and the villain's anger... The field is too strong..."
Guan Jinpeng also watched "Seven Swords" and knew that Tang Jili was right.
"The aura of Sun Honglei, a villain, actually crushed seven decent people. It feels a bit like "Infernal Affairs 2". Ni Yongxiao, played by Wu Zhenyu, is obviously a villain, but he stirs up trouble..."
" It is said that during the screening in the cinema, many people left the show before watching it..."
Originally, it was nothing to leave the show in the middle. At the film festival, many of them were literary films, and many people left early after they couldn't watch it. yes.
But I am afraid of comparison in everything.
Someone in "Seven Swords" left the show midway. Not to mention someone in "Hurricane" left the show midway. The audience spontaneously asked for an extra show.
People die more than others, and money gets thrown away.
This time, the topic returns to "Hurricane Rescue".
"Brother, I think we have to make plans early. "Hurricane" is only one week later than "Myth"..."
Cheng Long doesn't know what Tang Jili said, but he can What to do, not to mention there is Guan Jinpeng next to him.
"Well, I'll discuss it with Bona later..."
At this stage, Hong Kong films are basically handed over to Bona for distribution.
......
On the other side, Zhang Chen and his group were also wandering on the road.
Under such circumstances, it would be impossible to go back to the screening place. It would be easy to be mobbed by enthusiastic movie fans, so everyone decided to take this opportunity to visit Venice.
I have been busy since I came here, and I haven’t had much fun shopping yet.
Judging from the reaction to the first show, there is no doubt about the popularity of "Hurricane", which also made everyone's more or less suspenseful hearts fall back.
Jing Tian looked very excited. During the chaos just now, he heard someone shouting "That's Jinmi".
Kimmy is exactly the name of her character.
The audience remembered her, which proved that her performance was recognized by the audience, which made her very happy.
Even when chatting with Cheng Long and others just now, Brother Cheng Long praised her for her good acting skills.
During the production of "The Myth", Jing Tian actually wanted to use his abilities to win the role of the heroine Princess Yushu, but Lu Zheng surprisingly did not agree.
The reason was that Jing Tian was not in the right grade, but in fact she knew it was because of Cheng Long's reputation.
It is said that all the heroines of Cheng Long need to be with him...
Well, Director Zhang is better.
But I remembered that Director Zhang and Sister Qing now live in the same room.
Well, the two of them didn't avoid people at all, they just booked a room together.
“Look, gondola, let’s take a ride on the gondola~”
Since we are visiting Venice, of course we must experience the local characteristics.
In Venice, there is a saying that if you don’t take a gondola ride in Venice, you haven’t come to Venice.
Gondola is a traditional rowing boat unique to Venice, Italy.
Because Venice is the only city in the world without cars, boats are the only means of transportation.
A gondola is actually a black flat-bottomed boat, 12 meters long, richly decorated, with two raised crescents. It is said that the raised crescents can also measure the height of the bridge.
It is said that this kind of boat has a history of more than a thousand years.
Everyone took two gondolas and visited the river.
The boatman rowed the oar and the gondola drove quietly.
There are many floating shops in the Venice rivers, and the floating shops are also boats.
It’s just that the boat is filled with merchandise, mostly fruits and trinkets.
