Chapter 204 Premiere (5K)

The setting sun is like a glass of spilled wine, soaking the whole dusk in a slight drunkenness.

A few months after the Olympics ended, the number of tourists at the exit of Beijing Airport has not decreased at all.

In the crowd, Lu Yuan was walking in front wearing a mask, lowering his head from time to time to check the latest online reports about the movie "Painted Skin".

Tonight, "Painted Skin" will hold its premiere at Xidan Joy City Cinema. For this reason, he asked Jiang Wei for leave in advance.

The filming of the latent crew was in an orderly manner, and the coordinator worked hard to re-formulate the shooting plan, which suddenly gave him half a day.

Regarding the choice of the film's release date, producer Pang Hong has been thinking about it for a long time during the summer, National Day and Lunar New Year periods.

The animated blockbuster "Kung Fu Panda" and the domestic blockbuster "Red Cliff" are competing in the summer season, while the Lunar New Year film has "Mei Lanfang" and "If You Are the One".

In the current market, neither theater screening space nor audience spending power has reached the level of accommodating three blockbusters at the same time.

After Pang Hong’s careful consideration and to be on the safe side, the schedule was finally set at the end of September to compete on the National Day schedule.

"Breaking news, Zhou Xun became the third party and appeared completely naked, leaving only a strand of hair to cover it up."

"Chen Kun and Zhou Xun will stage a large-scale passionate drama."

"According to reports, popular niche student Lu Yuan fought with Chen Kun over Zhou Xun."

"Painted Skin, China's first epic oriental fantasy blockbuster, is scheduled to be released on September 9. It's a shock."

"Huayi's signed singer Zhang Liangying sings the ending song of the solo album."

"What's going on? It's a mess, and the more it spreads, the more outrageous it is." Lu Yuan muttered and continued reading.

The marketing director of "Painted Skin" is named Yang Zhenjian. From the day the film started filming, there have been endless revelations about the crew, whetting the appetite of netizens.

As the premiere approaches, reports from television, the Internet, newspapers and other related media are unfolding in parallel. All kinds of half-true and half-false news are being released, and the momentum is staggering.

A few days ago, first a copyright dispute broke out, and then a nude substitution incident broke out.

Chen Jia Shang revealed to the media that Zhou Xun's undressing scene in the film was done by a naked stand-in, and he did not sign his name.

This incident caused quite a stir on the Internet, with some netizens thinking that not giving a signature was disrespectful to the nude stand-in actor.

Some netizens felt that the actor himself did not want to reveal his privacy, and there was no disrespect from the film studio.

Each one held his own, it was very lively, and the entire National Day show seemed to create the appearance of the "Painted Skin" being the only one.

Lu Yuan had to lament that today's film and television industry really relies on products [-]% and marketing [-]%.

As the crowd left the airport, without even taking two steps, Wu Lang coughed very suddenly behind him.

He paid no attention and continued to think about what to say at the end of the premiere.

At this moment, slight footsteps approached, and before he could turn his head, a pair of small hands suddenly stretched out and covered his eyes.

"Guess who I am."

At the familiar voice and familiar smell, he bent down, held Liu Shishi's thigh with his backhand, and carried her on his back with a little force.

"Ah, put me down." Liu Shishi hugged his neck and shouted.

After not seeing each other for a month, this girl has gained a lot of weight. Lu Yuan patted her butt gently and said, "You have classes in Chinese drama today, are you asking for leave?"

Liu Shishi was fussy for a while, resting his chin on his shoulder, blowing into his ear, and exclaimed: "Are you stupid? It's the weekend."

His ears felt numb. He banged his hands hard twice and threatened, "I won't be polite if you blow again."

Pedestrians on the road stared at the two guys curiously. Liu Shishi said shyly: "Let me get down quickly. If someone recognizes you, you will be in trouble."

Lu Yuan didn't care that the relationship between the two was exposed, but he was worried about the upcoming premiere and that it would overshadow the show.

He put her down, then turned around and looked back and forth with burning eyes.

The two white and tender legs are round and well-proportioned, straight and straight, the waist is as thin as a willow, and the chest looks a little more bulging than before.

Liu Shishi felt uncomfortable being looked at, crossed his arms, rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily: "What are you looking at?"

"I'm watching the changes in the capital. It's developing so fast. Look, the roads are wide, white, and flat."

He said this, but his eyes were not staring at the ground at all. Liu Shishi was furious: "Lu Yuan!"

The two of them were hugging each other, and they were so sticky. Wu Lang followed behind and couldn't see it. He pulled his luggage and passed the couple.

When she got into the commercial car sent by the company to pick her up, the girl was still angry. She looked out the window with a sullen face and pursed her lips without speaking.

Lu Yuan played with her clenched fists and opened her fingers one by one. As soon as she opened them, she closed them again, opened them again, and closed them again.

Facts have proved that women are really very energetic when it comes to showing off their tempers, and it is definitely a lie if they cannot unscrew the bottle cap.

The car drove out of Dongzhimen with a ticking sound. He rolled down the window slightly and joked with a smile.

"Master, please go back to the community first and send this girl back, and then go to Joy City for the premiere."

The driver didn't say anything, but Liu Shishi couldn't hold himself back for a moment. I worked so hard to pick you up, but you actually wanted to drive me away and hit him with your fists.

After a long time to calm down, Lu Yuan held her in his arms and asked, "How about I take you to the premiere later."

Liu Shishi weakly grabbed the big hand that was causing trouble on his leg and hesitated: "It's not good, there are so many reporters, just in case we are photographed."

Lu Yuan laughed: "It doesn't matter, you have a new identity from now on."

"What's your identity?" Liu Shishi blinked.

"Life Assistant."

"What is the specific work content?"

"Come on, Assistant Liu, your lips are a little dry. Let me smell it. I'll give you a salary increase later, heh."

Xidan Joy City Store, Capital Cinema.

As one of the top cinemas in Beijing, all the facilities are fully equipped and the movie-watching experience is amazing.

As usual, the employees changed shifts at seven o'clock in the evening and the movie premiered at eight o'clock.

"Tattoo!"

Following the sound of footsteps, a young girl with short hair ran out of the elevator in a panic, then stopped suddenly, obviously frightened by the waiting audience.

She struggled to squeeze through the crowd and reached the dressing room. While changing clothes, she gasped: "That's too exaggerated. It's only six o'clock!"

"I don't want to think about the recent publicity of this drama. Besides, this weekend, you don't allow others to fall in love without a man?"

The colleague complained next to her, then dragged her over and told her, "Don't go to the reception room for a while. The manager just reminded her."

The girl blinked, reacted and whispered: "You mean?"

"Well, the main actors are all in there!" The colleague nodded and pointed in the direction behind him.

In the reception room, several main creators from the Painted Skin crew sat together chatting and talking about the current situation.

"Director Cao Baoping went to Spain with "Li Mi's Conjecture". How was the harvest?"

"The Best Director Award is here." Zhou Xun held his chin in a daze and replied casually.

"That's great. If nothing else happens, you can win a few more Best Actress trophies next."

Zhou Xun pretended not to care and waved his hand, smiling: "It's not that simple."

That girl Liu Shishi didn't have the nerve to follow her, so he put down his phone and shook his head.

The reception room is small and clean. There are several promotional posters for "Painted Skin" in the corner.

The overall color of the picture is quite provocative, and the cold tones of the foreground are reminiscent of the horror version of the last century.

The background is a grayish dark blue, with the word "painted skin" written in traditional Chinese in the middle, and the director, producer Chen Jia Shang, and a list of producers are written above and below.

As for the several leading actors, they are distributed in a triangle shape at the top of the poster.

Oddly enough, Zhen Zidan's role is not that many, but she is placed in the most central position, and is properly treated as the male lead.

On his left were Chen Kun and Lu Yuan, on his right were Zhou Xun and Sun Li.

It’s a bit frustrating, but it’s a fact that Hong Kong actors are generally more prominent than mainland actors these days.

For the first time, Painted Skin uses mainland actors as protagonists. If it sells well at the box office, then the rise of mainland movies and the rise of actors' status will not be far away.

After rambling on and on, around [-]:[-], there was a noise outside and the audience entered.

Excellent photography not only enhances the tension of the plot, but also adds points to the actors' performances, making the audience more comfortable and enjoyable to watch.

The overall style of "Painted Skin" is poignant and romantic. Chen Jiashang gave up the contrasting lighting in the past and chose relatively soft tones.

The effect displayed now is surprisingly smooth, with a flavor of ink painting, just like the beginning of the movie, where the scenes are presented progressively
Huang Xuwen put down his phone and pushed up the golden frame on the bridge of his nose.

He is a freelance film critic and has many fans on his blog. He usually records his views on movies realistically.

Of course, there are special circumstances, well, you have to pay extra, there are no exceptions!
The opening of Painted Skin is a large panorama, very impressive, the desert border is golden, Chen Kun leads the team slowly forward in the desert.

There was no sound in the dim movie theater. The scene on the screen changed, and gangsters appeared. A group of bearded men surrounded Zhou Xing in a dazed manner.

Xiao Wei was leaning on the ground, oh, those collarbones, swan neck, small fragrant shoulders, two white legs, and body wrapped in white velvet, trying to cover up but still shy, wanting to refuse but still welcoming. "Second brother, now is not the time."

"It's fake, I don't believe it."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible."

Zhou Xun's enchanting appearance aroused discussion, and many viewers were amazed by her beauty.

It's hard to imagine that the skinny figure like a bean sprout in my impression can be so sexy.

Look at those eyes, the charm reveals innocence, as if she is really a fox demon, her soul is out of body in her gracefulness, she is really beautiful, alluring, and shocking.

Huang Xuwen thought to himself that he was indeed Huang Yuetai, he was good at photographing women, he was so authentic.

On the screen, a big man with the most beard stepped forward, lifted Zhou Xun's chin and asked, "Beauty, are you hungry?"

Well, the lines were not precise enough, which is a common problem among Hong Kong directors. He recorded it truthfully on his mobile phone.

This man dared to say anything before he raised his gun and mounted his horse. The bearded man said with hunger and thirst: "Really, my heart belongs to you."

Zhou Xun smiled charmingly: "Oh, I caught it."

Those who didn't know thought she had caught some big treasure.

The bearded bandit also deserved his bad luck. He thought he could push down a little goblin, but he ended up running into a real goblin.

He didn't even say a few lines, but he was heartbroken and went to see the robber patriarch.

Then Chen Kun appeared, and the scholar in the story became a general here.

He swung his sword twice, and he and his men got rid of the rest of the bearded men, and then went to rescue the beauty. Unexpectedly, the beauty had already killed the bandits.

I'm too embarrassed to say that to my brothers outside. It's too embarrassing, so just take her out. The two of them will meet each other and hook up.

The plot unfolds slowly, with Chen Kun riding back home with the beauty in his arms.

The plot started to get tense with the appearance of Zhen Zidan.

First there was a love triangle, and later Zhen Zidan was added.

The love triangle is not over yet, Sun Li appears disguised as a man.

Chen Jiashang understands the audience, and Wujia Lian is still not satisfied, so he arranges a love affair between a demon and a demon.

When Lu Yuan came out with a haircut similar to that of a Fuwa doll, the audience couldn't help laughing.

"Lu Xiaoqian!"

"Damn it, give me back Yuan Lang!"

"Meng Hao, why have you become like this? Chen Jiashang returns my husband."

In a corner of the screening room, Liu Shishi was still looking silly and happy, but his expression suddenly changed, and he looked over with his head raised and alert.

Unfortunately, she couldn't see anything in the dark, so she had to sit down angrily, took out her phone and started typing: "Why are you so annoying?"

With the appearance of the lizard spirit, Huang Xuwen finally understood that this was a fart magical blockbuster. It was clearly a romance film, and it was a hexagonal romance.

The first half of Painted Skin is relatively peaceful, but the pace of the second half speeds up in vain. The foreshadowing of the main and branch plots appears one after another, and the number of fight scenes increases.

Dong Wei's action design is quite high-level and fits the characteristics of the characters. The beggar punches hard, Xiao Wei is charming and coquettish, and the lizard is energetic and energetic.

When the plot progressed to two-thirds, the biggest conflict point finally broke out. Painted skin, painted skin, without close-ups of peeling skin, what is painted skin?

Because there was a censorship issue and they couldn't make it too scary, the crew finally found the company that produced the special effects for "The Letter of Nomination".

In just six seconds and costing 500 million, Zhou Xun on the screen turned into a humanoid wriggling black worm.

"It's a bit disgusting. Isn't Xiao Wei a fox? Why is his true form a bug?"

"No wonder Lu Yuan likes her, lizards just like bugs."

When the film comes to the end, Pei Rong escapes into the cave, and Wang Sheng and Xiao Wei arrive with people.

Everything seems to have come to an end, and everyone is waiting for his choice.

"You" Wang Sheng knelt down and helped up his white-haired wife. His voice was trembling as he asked, "Did you kill this person?"

Pei Rong hesitated for a moment, and when she saw Xiao Weiyi approaching step by step and the coldness in his eyes, she could only nod her head and said, "Yes, I killed them all."

"Kill her! Beat her to death!" The crowd who followed became angry and shouted, waving their weapons.

"Shut up!" Wang Sheng stood up suddenly and yelled.

Then, he squatted down again: "You are my wife, no matter what you do, we will bear it together."

Xiao Wei's eyes were fixed on her, and Pei Rong held on to her emotions and said coldly: "I am a demon. I have killed so many people, and I deserve to die."

"Ha..." Wang Sheng smiled. He gently touched the familiar face and said, "You can't even bear to trample an ant to death, and you still say such silly things."

With just this sentence, Pei Rong could no longer bear it, and her tears fell down as if they were broken.

Wang Sheng was smart. He connected the previous events and understood the truth immediately.

He comforted his wife, then walked up to Xiao Wei and said, "I said that I have feelings for you, but you forgot that I love her and believe in her, whether she is a human or a monster, this will not change. "

Xiao Wei is smart, knows how to plan a story, and knows how to use human nature. She thinks everything is under control.

But she ignored the most important point. She could draw human skin, but she couldn't draw the heart of a person who loves another person.

So she collapsed completely, her thin body curled up, then raised her head, and roared with anger, confusion, and extremely sadness.

"what!!!"

This sound really sounded like a wild beast howling. Xiao Wei was a demon, and demons did not distinguish between right and wrong. They would eat when they were hungry, and rob if they liked it. The so-called love was possession.

But no one will hate her. Pei Rong is a model of a wife, gentle and virtuous, Xiao Wei is affectionate and sexual, and the audience likes her.

When Xiao Wei accidentally killed Wang Sheng and spit out the pill, the lizard spirit descended from the sky and snatched it away.

He couldn't just watch the other party go to destruction, but he was outnumbered, so what if he was a demon.

After a wonderful fight, Lu Yuan fell powerlessly on top of Zhen Zidan.

He looked back, his eyes full of reluctance and affection, the pain was heartbreaking, he reached out tremblingly and murmured: "Xiao Wei."

What was waiting for him was Xiao Wei's indifferent glance.

"Why do I feel like Xiao Wei is a little ungrateful?"

"."

As the film ends, the lights come on, the credits roll on the screen, and the ending song Hua Xin is still echoing in everyone's mind.

Not long after, the theater door opened, and the host walked out first and read a few opening remarks.

The audience ignored him, and all looked outside the door, muttering the name of the leading actor from time to time.

A group of people came out soon, led by Chen Jiashang, followed by Chen Kun, and Lu Yuan at the end.

"Ahhh!"

Applause and screams broke out instantly,

"Brother Xun!"

"Lu Yuan!"

"."

Several people stood in a row on the stage, each holding a microphone. Chen Jiashang took the lead and waved: "Hello everyone, I am very happy to be able to meet you in Beijing."

"Ahhhh!"

After saying a few words, he was interrupted again. Seeing this, Chen Jiashang simply skipped the politeness and asked directly: "Does the painted skin look good?"

"It's beautiful!" The whole audience echoed.

"Do you still want to see it?"

"miss you!"

"Will you tell your friends to watch it together?"

"meeting!"

After three questions and three answers, the place was heated and the atmosphere was so good that it seemed to lift the roof.

Several people on the stage looked at each other and looked at the audience's reaction. They thought that it would not be a big problem to return the money at the box office.

After the scene calmed down, the remaining people spoke one after another.

When it was Lu Yuan's turn, before he could speak, some unlucky creature shouted something.

"husband!"
