China Entertainment Times 1999

Chapter 271 Prediction of box office, Ding Xiu’s famous scene! (Please subscribe!)

Outside the theater, the stage has been set up and the red carpet has been laid out.

The actors all had smiles on their faces and chatted with each other emotionally.

Lin Xuan, Wang Zhongjun, and Han Sanping stood behind the stage.

China Film and Huayi are both investors in the film, so they will definitely come to such an important occasion as the premiere.

Soon, the host in a suit and tie walked onto the stage.

"Everyone, please be quiet. Let's welcome Director Lin Xuan and say a few words to you."

Lin Xuan walked onto the stage and took the microphone: "Hello everyone, I am Lin Xuan. First of all, thank you all for coming."

After speaking, he bowed slightly to the audience, causing fans to scream and cheer.

""Xiu Chun Knife" is my second film directed by myself. It is different from my debut film "Adult Style of Love". This movie..."

Lin Xuan briefly described the differences between this movie and traditional martial arts movies and introduced the main highlights of the movie.

Li Bingbing followed his boss Wang Zhongjun.

Finally, thank you again. Your support has made me what I am today. Thank you! "

But at least they are good friends, so they are quite polite to her.

The red carpet of the premiere was very simple, there was no lingering, and it was over in less than an hour.

"There is another question that everyone is very concerned about. I would like to ask Director Lin, how much do you expect the box office of this movie to be?"

The three Jinyiwei brothers form a faction of their own.

"Director Lin, congratulations."

The others had finished talking. When it was Wang Zhongjun's turn, he could only grab Lin Xuan and praise him.

Fan Xiaopang came over wearing a red dress and smiled brightly at him.

Those who are willing to come to the scene are die-hard fans, and such simple questions cannot trouble them.

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "The answer is correct!"

The two pretended to say hello and hugged each other gently.

"Let me introduce to you..."

He looked at the audience and asked, "How many do you think it is?"

After the interaction, everyone walked into the theater.

Fan Xiaopang looked them over.

"Ms. Fan, thank you for your support. This dress is nice. It's so beautiful."

The actors talked about the hardships during filming, Chen Hong talked about the birth process of the movie, and Han Sanping talked about the rise of the mainland's film and television industry.

The guests who came to watch the ceremony began to walk on the red carpet.

Lin Xuan's left hand is Huang Shengyi, and his right hand is Liu Yifei.

"One hundred million!"

"I don't want to say too many sensational words. Whether the movie is good or bad is up to you to judge for yourself after watching it. I believe you won't be disappointed.

However, most of the audience in the audience were Lin Xuan fans, and his trick was quite effective.

"Hello, nice to meet you."

Wu Jing and other actors were responsible for checking and filling in the gaps.

Could it be that Lin Xuan brought the two of them together on purpose?

Fan Xiaopang said a few words and then went in and took his seat.

"Let's go in too."

The host controlled the time and rhythm and limited each person's interaction time to three minutes.

Outside Hall 1, the actors were divided into several waves to receive guests attending the premiere.

He bowed again, handed back the microphone and walked off the stage.

Near 11 o'clock at noon, the interactive session ended, and the host invited Lin Xuan to the stage again.

Lin Xuan introduced the two heroines to her.

Needless to say, they were both beauties in terms of appearance, but she always felt that they were somewhat similar.

Lin Xuan took them back to the cinema.

"I answered this question during the filming of the movie."

The audience responded in unison.

Huang Shengyi and Liu Yifei quickly said hello to her.

Then, the film's leading actor, producer Chen Hong, investors Wang Zhongjun and Han Sanping all came to the stage to speak and interact with the fans.

Both of them knew that Lin Xuan and Fan Xiaopang had a good relationship, but there were different opinions in the industry about how good the relationship was.

There was no way, there were too many guests coming to watch the ceremony, and it was impossible to receive them without separating them.

The noise in the hall suddenly stopped, and then warm applause broke out.

Lin Xuan led the crew and the leading actors and nodded to everyone to express his thanks.

"Thank you all friends for your support. I am short of time so I will keep the story short..."

He simply said a few polite words and took the leading actors to sit in the front row to watch the movie.

…………

"During the Tianqi period of the Ming Dynasty, the great eunuch Wei Zhongxian..."

As the movie begins, a magnetic and low narration begins to introduce the background of the story.

"Did you dub this narration?"

Liu Yifei leaned her head over and asked softly.

Lin Xuan smiled and nodded.

At the beginning, the crew was prepared to let Yan Yi play a wide role. After all, he is the protagonist, but the dubbing effect was not very satisfactory.

As a producer, Chen Hong had no choice but to capture the strong man, and after a round of arrests, he finally caught Lin Xuan.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, two soldiers patrolling the city, with sabers hanging on their waists and holding lanterns, walked on the desolate and lonely streets.

The buildings on the street were dark and cold, as if there were beasts dormant, full of murderous intent.

"who!"

The older soldier noticed something unusual and immediately drew his sword and shouted an order.

There was no response in the alley.

The veteran held the long knife tightly and bravely walked inside.

Suddenly the lights flickered, and a black flying fish suit with exquisite embroidery suddenly appeared in front of the veteran.

"Ah! It's Jin Yiwei!"

He dropped the lantern in panic, and the flames shone on the man's face.

Handsome and cold.

There were more than a dozen Jinyi guards standing behind them, all looking at the two of them coldly.

"Come on!"

The veteran was so frightened that he fell to the ground and rolled away.

The camera switches to show Mr. Chen discussing how to send Xu Xianchun away.

His wife and daughter, disheveled, pushed open the door and walked in.

Shen Lian pushed the two of them in and took out his waist card: "Master Chen, we are in the Xiabei Town Fusi, Shen Lian!"

Yan Yikuan's appearance and acting skills are both good, and his martial arts movements are chic and elegant, and there is basically no fault to be found.

Even Shu Chang, who plays the daughter, also acted out his fear of Jin Yiwei.

"Changchang did a great job!"

Shu Chang is the same age as Liu Yifei, but her acting skills are far behind hers. The silly girl is still very envious of her.

Jinyiwei successfully captured Xu Xianchun. The entire operation process was very smooth, and the cooperation between the teams was also flawless.

Just from the beginning, the audience in the hall had a premonition that this must be a good movie.

The task was completed, and the honest eldest brother sent someone to take Xu Xianchun back.

The active-minded second and third children have their own nightlife.

The scene turned, and the brightly lit Jiaofangsi appeared on the screen, in sharp contrast to the dark buildings around it.

Zhou Miaotong, played by Huang Shengyi, was lying quietly on the bed, while Shen Lian, who had taken off his flying fish suit, was sitting alone by the fire.

"You are the most interesting person. If you come to Nuanxiang Pavilion and spend money but don't have sex, you are alone."

Zhou Miaotong stood up and sat next to him, his tone was lazy and soft.

Wearing a plain white peony dress, dignified and elegant, coupled with her beautiful face, the entire audience in the theater was attracted to her.

Lin Xuan is very good at choosing beautiful women, and is even known as the "Beauty Scout" on the Internet. Zhou Miaotong's stunning appearance made the audience understand.

Why can this Beijing Film Academy student who has never acted in a movie become the heroine of a movie? Even Zhou Xingxing asked her to act.

Huang Shengyi looked at himself in the play with a faint smile on his face.

The second brother Shen Lian likes a Jiaofangsi girl, and the third brother Jin Yichuan is not an economical person either.

When Jin Yiwei's eyes were clear, he secretly went to a dark alley to meet someone.

"Brother!"

Ding Xiu, played by Lin Xuan, walked out casually carrying a Miao knife and nibbling steamed buns.

His appearance dazzled the audience.

The following dialogue makes this character more vivid.

"Don't worry, your official brothers are gone."

"Do you really think that if you put on this Feiyu suit, you will be an official, and a thief will be a thief! I will keep your secret for the rest of my life!"

"Go sell your butt. With such a good body and one hundred taels of silver, it's easy."

A few simple and clear lines reveal the secrets of Jin Yichuan and also show the character of Ding Xiu.

Jin Yichuan fought with him, and the Miao knife was unsheathed for the first time.

Ding Xiu lost his weapon but didn't panic and regained the Miao Dao with only two moves.

The battle situation can simply be described as crushing.

The audience has a deeper impression of this character.

The scene changed. Lu Jianxing, who was still domineering and mighty last night, was now groveling to a fat Baihu, just to make up for the shortcomings of his father Baihu.

It's a pity that he is too honest and has no money in his hands, so he can only endure it slowly.

Lu Jianxing needs money to make up for the shortage of hundreds of households, Shen Lian needs money to redeem Zhou Miaotong, and Jin Yichuan needs money to get rid of his senior brother Ding Xiu's entanglement.

Everyone in Auditorium No. 1 was an insider, and they quickly understood the director’s intention of filming this way.

Sure enough, an opportunity to make a fortune arose.

Zhao Jingzhong, played by Wu Jing, faked the imperial edict and asked them to kill Wei Zhongxian.

The eldest brother Lu Jianxing wanted to take all the credit, so the three agreed to the plan after discussion.

The battle in the rain was very fierce, and the fighting with various weapons was exciting. Li Bingbing's Western sword was even more eye-catching.

Shen Lian rushed into the attic, and Wei Zhongxian lured him with gold while uncovering a traitor.

In the end, the attic caught fire and Wei Zhongxian died, but the audience knew that there must be something fishy.

Zhao Jingzhong brought people to do the autopsy and gave the three of them a subtle smile.

When he turned around, he came to a dense forest. Wei Zhongxian was indeed alive and asked him to kill Shen Lian and the others.

Eunuch Zhao wanted to assassinate them late at night, but was wounded by the three brothers. In the end, he had no choice but to use borrowed knives to kill people and sent them to encircle Yan Mansion.

This battle became more intense. The three of them used their skills to kill the enemy and almost died from the sword several times.

On the other hand, those so-called colleagues used carriages to lock the gate of Yan's mansion, which made people feel angry.

Lu Jianxing chopped down one person with a machete, wiped the blood from his face, and shouted: "After this matter is done, let's go drink! Kill!"

Hu Jun is tall, and he shouted these words with great courage!

After coming out of Yan's Mansion, Shen Lianfa beat his boss to relieve his anger.

Then he paid bribes for his eldest brother to make up for the shortage of hundreds of households, and then got Zhou Miaotong's amnesty list, and finally settled Ding Xiu for Jin Yichuan.

The three of them are about to be transferred to Jinling, and a bright future is waving to them.

But a dinner party ruined it all.

Under Lu Jianxing's questioning, Shen Lian told the whole truth.

When Zhao Jingzhong's identity was discovered, he decided to take a desperate risk and borrowed dead soldiers from Wei Zhongxian and paid Ding Xiu to do it.

"Kill someone for me!"

"One hundred taels!"

"Who do you want to kill, father-in-law?"

"Beizhen Fusi Flag Officer, Jin Yichuan!"

"Who! My father-in-law doesn't know, is he my junior brother?"

"People like you still care about this."

"Father-in-law, you misunderstood. This person is my beloved relative and friend, a brother and sister... I need to pay more!"

"Hahahaha!"

As soon as the famous scene came out, bursts of laughter erupted in the theater.

The lines alone may not be that funny, but coupled with Lin Xuan's superb performance, the funny effect is doubled.

People around are still talking about the fact that the screenwriter of this drama is Lin Xuan.

He, an actor who has never read a book, can actually write such lines.

Shen Lian redeems Zhou Miaotong's life, and the audience finally learns about their past grudges.

Why doesn't she love Shen Lian and is even a little afraid of him?

Because his father was killed by Wei Zhongxian, Shen Lian was the one who came to ransack his home and arrest people.

An official lady was reduced to a job in the Jiaofang Division. No wonder her eyes were dull and she was like a walking zombie.

Who dares to love him with such deep hatred and resentment?

This scene where Jin Yiwei arrests someone is not in the original version.

Lin Xuan filmed it so that the audience could understand Zhou Miaotong's choice.

Just when the audience was feeling sad for the two of them, Zhao Jingzhong's dead soldiers suddenly came to kill them.

On the other side, Jin Yichuan came to the medical center and saw Ding Xiu walking out holding Zhang Yan.

"You have good taste, boy. This girl... is very smooth!"

There was a burst of suppressed laughter in the hall.

Hehe, Lin Xuan is a wonderful person, this line is absolutely amazing.

Zhang Yan, played by Liu Yifei, is innocent and cute, making people feel like first love when watching her.

Her tone, demeanor, and expression were all on point, making a little girl in love come alive.

Liu Yifei is very satisfied with her performance.

It's just that she still doesn't know what it means to be very moist.

This duel between brothers finally ended with Jin Yichuan saving his life.

When Shen Lian arrived, he only saw his body and two heads used as memorials.

After killing Ding Xiu's junior brother, the two musketeers had no choice but to die.

The eldest brother Lu Jianxing chose to surrender to the government in order to keep his two younger brothers alive, and was eventually beheaded in public.

In a blink of an eye, the three brothers were left alone, and Shen Lian was left alone.

At this point in the story, the audience was holding their breath, but the opportunity to vent their anger soon came.

Zhao Jingzhong betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered gold. Shen Lian and Ding Xiu pursued him thousands of miles and finally intercepted him at the border.

In order to create an opportunity for the decisive battle between Shen Lian and Zhao Jingzhong, Ding Xiu single-handedly fought a group of Jurchen cavalry.

He was shot by a bow and arrow and fell off his horse. He then got up and chopped down a cavalryman, killing him in two or three strokes.

Then he mounted his horse and ran wildly into the woods, taking advantage of the terrain to play hide-and-seek with the thirteen cavalrymen, dividing them and killing them.

The Miao knife drinks blood and is unstoppable.

Ding Xiu cut through all the thirteen cavalrymen like melons and vegetables.

By the time Shen Lian worked hard to kill Zhao Jingzhong, Ding Xiu had been sitting under the tree and resting for a long time.

"Go south and enter the customs, go to Suzhou...your Zhou Miaotong and the girl named Zhang are both here."

No one expected that this man who was full of business aura could be both rough and subtle, and arranged two girls for Shen Lian in advance.

After Ding Xiu left, Shen Lian looked at the endless grassland in front of him, imagining the ending in which all three of them survived.

The three brothers galloped on the grassland, chatting about where they wanted to go.

This section is considered an easter egg, leaving a thought for the audience.

Perhaps in parallel time and space, the three brothers are still alive.

The screen gradually faded to black, background music played, and the words "Director Lin Xuan" appeared on the screen.

"Clap clap clap..."

The theater burst into applause, and the lead actor sitting in the front row stood up and bowed to the audience in thanks.
