Chapter 472 Unexpected
As one of the largest marketers of peripheral products on the West Coast, Jack Zhao and Irene received an invitation from the premiere and came to attend the premiere.
From the moment Ido Dash started recalling the past and telling stories, the two quietly discussed and speculated on the plot.
Little Gilbert previously said that this film was very brain-burning, so many fans were led astray. Jack Zhao and Irene are the two of them, making various guesses about the direction of the plot.
But the subsequent development of the plot was beyond their expectations, and it was not the direction they had guessed at all.
"It turns out that Ido and Mary have known each other for a long time. They are both painters, but Mary is more talented, while Ido can only imitate." Jack Zhao sighed as he recalled the first half of the story.
Erin had a different opinion: "Is it possible? The two of them actually have little relationship?"
"It doesn't matter much?" Jack Zhao was very surprised: "Then Mary will come to bail this Ido?"
"I don't know about that, I have to wait and see what happens next." Irene shook her head.
She always felt that this Mary was different from the Mary in her memories. How should I put it, although they are both played by Charlize Theron, their temperaments are different.
This Mary does not have the artistic temperament of the Mary in my memory, and temperament is often a feeling.
It must be said that Eileen's perception is very keen, which may be related to her love of art and painting.
A movie fan nearby interrupted the couple's discussion: "Shh, be quiet and watch the movie."
Jack Zhao and Irene quickly made gestures to watch the movie and stopped discussing.
Recalling the first half of the story, Ido and Mary were a couple, both of whom were street painters. But Mary was quickly appreciated by the art agent. In order not to delay Mary's future, Ido took the initiative to find the agent to intercede.
In order to comfort Mary, he also lied that his painting was bought by the gallery. But in fact he was working for a black shop that specialized in making fake paintings, and sure enough, he was discovered by Mary later.
It can be said that this story is not so closely related to the theme of the film. It mainly tells the relationship between Ido and Mary.
At this point Erin guessed that it was time for Tom Cruise to appear.
Sure enough, the owner of the fake painting shop sold the fake paintings painted by Ido to a person, and this person was Richard Decker, played by Tom Cruise.
I have to say that when Tom Cruise came out, his aura was in sharp contrast to the Ido Dash played by Tom Cruise earlier.
DiCaprio summed it up well in one sentence: "This Richard Decker is the boss when he is a bad person, and he is also the boss when he is a good person."
This is indeed the case, but the final reversal may surprise Leo.
According to the boss's information, Richard Decker found Ido Dash, who happened to accompany Mary to hold her first painting exhibition in her life.
Dustin Hoffman also appeared, so four movie kings and movie queens appeared in one scene, which made all the movie fans in the theater excited.
The movie has progressed so far. Although there are no gunfight scenes or any big scenes, it is very attractive.
Perhaps this is the charm of several movie kings and movie queens. The wonderful performances of these people allow movie fans to watch the movie immersively.
After Drake saw the appearance of Tom Cruise's character, he thought he was the unseen painter and leader of the criminal gang.
But Derek had a vague feeling that things were not that simple.
If the plot is set up like this, it won't be brain-burning at all. With little Gilbert's style, maybe the truth they saw was just an appearance.
But there is now too little evidence for Drake to produce evidence to support his argument.
Erin also had the same view, but seeing that everyone was immersed in watching the movie, she felt embarrassed to discuss it with Jack Zhao out loud.
However, Erin vaguely felt that the plot behind this film would be very shocking.
Director Gilbert Jr.'s story-telling ability is so good that it doesn't feel too thrilling. Just talking about it like this can firmly attract the attention of movie fans.
In the movie, Ido Dash chases out to apologize to Richard Decker on behalf of his girlfriend Mary, but Richard Decker doesn't care about it at all.
Richard Deckard just wants to discuss the fake painting he painted with Ido Dash, and the two have a pleasant conversation.
Richard Deck admired Ido Dash's talent for counterfeiting, so he gave Ido Dash a job opportunity.
However, Richard Decker did not disclose what the specific job was.
"Just making counterfeit money, right?"
"That's right? After all, counterfeit money is also counterfeit."
Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Connelly looked a little confused, guessing and trying to confirm each other's thoughts.
Sure enough, Ido Dash returned to the art exhibition, burned his lifeless painting in front of Mary, and ended his relationship with Mary.
He found the painter and asked him what painting he wanted to imitate. The painter took out a U.S. dollar bill and said, "I want you to copy this U.S. dollar bill."
Ido Dash couldn't get off the pirate ship, so he joined the painter gang and got to know other members of the gang.
The next part of the plot about the production of counterfeit banknotes is very exciting, and there is an inexplicable excitement that affects the audience.
This is actually a process of substitution, allowing the audience to immerse themselves in it.
There have been movies with similar counterfeit money themes in the past, the most famous one being "How to Get Away with Murder", a collaboration between Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks.
Frank Abagnale, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, is a master at making fake checks, and he battles wits with FBI agent Carl Hanratty, played by Tom Hanks.
But the film is about making fake checks, and the focus is on the battle of wits between the two, without showing specific production details.
But coming to "Warriors", this time Tom Hanks changed from an FBI agent to a member of the counterfeit banknote group, helping the artist make counterfeit banknotes. The counterfeit banknotes produced in the film were US dollars issued in 1996, which were said at the time to be absolutely impossible to counterfeit.
As a result, in 1997, a Canadian counterfeiting gang copied this version of US dollars, but was caught by the police due to internal strife in the gang.
Before the release of "Wushuang", this true story became known during the promotion process. This also provides a realistic basis for the movie "Wushuang", so the fake banknote production process in the film looks very real.
In fact, the producers have made more efforts regarding the distribution of "Wushuang".
For example, before the release, the media reported that the FBI urgently inspected the movie "Wushuang" and confiscated all the counterfeit money produced during the filming of the movie.
The FBI's reason is that the part of making counterfeit money in the film is too real, and they must prevent criminals from learning the methods of making counterfeit money from the movie.
But in fact, the FBI doesn't pay attention to what the movie actually does. It just drags the FBI to hype the movie and attract attention.
And it is impossible for the FBI to stand up and deny it. After all, it was angry and donated before the hype.
So when they saw the real scene of making counterfeit banknotes in the movie, almost all the audience's mouths opened in an O shape.
No wonder the FBI wants to review it. If criminals see this and learn from it, it is estimated that there will be a lot of counterfeit banknotes on the market.
The complete presentation of the counterfeit banknote production process has once again raised the appeal of the movie "Wushuang" to a new level.
But this is just a process. In order to get the discolored ink, Richard Deck committed a case in Canada. The Canadian police detective played by Matt Damon also noticed the painter gang.
DiCaprio was very jealous when he saw Matt Damon appear.
He said to Matt Damon: "I envy you so much that you can be part of such a wonderful movie."
Matt Damon explained with a smile: "Leo, I heard from Little Gilbert that it's because you and Tom Hanks have acted in "How to Get Away with Murder", so I don't want to invite you to guest star."
"Fake," DiCaprio complained, and could only lament that he missed this opportunity.
This movie looks really enjoyable, quite enjoyable.
The real-life interrogation scene in the movie made Erin feel once again that her guess was correct. Mary did not grieve that Ido Dash had gone to the point of no return, nor did she grieve for the death of her fiancé.
Instead, she regretted that she and Ido Dash did not move on, and believed that it was all the painter's fault.
The police also started to compare identities, but have not yet found the painter named Richard Deck.
The memories of Ido Dash continue. Because of the case in Canada, Ido Dash wanted to quit. He and Richard Decker said they would quit after getting the color-changing ink.
During this period, Richard Deck used the two stolen barrels of color-changing ink to make counterfeit banknotes, and the gang made a fortune.
The last stop of the painter's gang's transaction was in Colombia, where they traded with a local warlord. There is also a counterfeiting expert among the warlords. It turns out that the warlord also wants to make counterfeit banknotes himself.
But the new version of counterfeit banknotes was too difficult to counterfeit, so he failed.
At this time, Ido Dash produced color-changing ink. Richard Decker was very satisfied with his work and bought Ido Dash a European hotel as a reward.
Ido Dash thought that he could really quit this time and go to find Mary, but it turned out that he had thought too much.
The subsequent scenes are completely like "First Blood" in "Warrior", or Ethan Hunt in "Warrior".
When making a deal with the warlord, Richard Deck killed the warlord because of his greed and old hatred, and also killed everyone in the warlord's camp.
Ido Dash was so frightened that he struggled and screamed. The woman, the counterfeiting expert in the warlord gang, was also injured and disfigured.
When they finally evacuated, Ido Dash took the counterfeiting expert with him.
"Isn't this scene too exaggerated?" Some fans thought it was a bit exaggerated.
I've seen Gilbert Jr.'s "The Island", but it was an entire special forces unit. There are only a few people here, and Ido Dash is still a loser who cannot be beaten.
However, some fans have different speculations: "Maybe this plot is fake and was made up by Ido Dash.
Or maybe Richard Deck colluded with other warlords and eliminated this group of warlords. "
Although a bit exaggerated, this gun battle scene allowed the audience to find the familiar Tom Cruise and the feeling of the original "The Island".
Next, came the scene that made the fans in the theater crazy and brain-burning.
The counterfeiting expert who was rescued was disfigured, so Ido Dash paid for her to undergo plastic surgery. The face shown in front of the mirror turned out to be Mary.
There was an uproar in the theater. Smart people like Irene and others had long known that there was something wrong with the Mary who came to bail Ido Dash, and now their suspicions were confirmed.
And Richard Deck also got her a fake passport, using the name of Mary Caesar.
"Oh my God," Erin exclaimed, "It's so exciting. I had a little guess, but I never expected that the film would be a little bolder than I imagined."
Jack Zhao was already thinking: "You mean, this Mary is fake?"
"Yes," Irene simply explained: "Up to now, except for the first half of Mary in the memory, which is true, the rest of Mary is false."
Jack Zhao doesn’t know Chinese idioms, otherwise he would definitely praise Irene for being smart.
However, Erin still kept the story simple. How could this reversal be called exciting? That's too easy to guess.
Gilbert Jr. said there will be a bigger reversal later.
