This star is from the earth

"There are so many people here, [Great Men] is really incomparable with this place." Qianqian stood on tiptoe and looked at the pedestrian-strewn street in front of her, feeling a little emotional.

"That's for sure. [Great Men] has only been open for a few years before it has much fame, and there must not be many people there. Even if [Magic Shadow] is only a little worse than [Cannes], there are still nearly two million audiences every year." Xiaochi said so, and quietly approached Qianqian, planning to stand in front of her when Qianqian was hit by the traffic, and open the way for her, showing the charm of male modern Homo sapiens, don't always say that even female monkeys look down on them he.

"How do you know so clearly?" Qianqian asked. This is her first visit to [Magic City Film Festival].

"That's an interesting question. You should ask me what I don't know?" Koike greasyly brushed the non-existent bangs on his forehead, "I also know that there are more than 5,000 films that have signed up for competition this year. Tsk tsk, More than 5,000 pieces, Lao Han is really right not to participate in the main competition."

Xiao Xia grabbed Xiao Chi's neck: "What did you say?"

"Sister Xia, calm down." Xiaochi rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm not saying that Lao Han will definitely lose!... What I mean is that Lao Han himself said that his new work is a commercial film It’s unnecessary, really unnecessary for a commercial film to compete with literary films at film festivals.” And many big directors also have works this year.

Xiao Xia snorted coldly and let go of her hand.

For a film festival of this level like [Modu Film Festival], it is a battle every time to grab tickets. If you want to see any movie in any exhibition, you have to plan ahead and start to grab tickets at the right time. Every time Xiaochi and Xiaoxia come here, they always make a lot of preparations in advance, pick out the movies they want to watch, and list them in order of grabbing tickets. If Han Jue's studio hadn't sent them three tickets, then the movie written in the first row of the form this year would undoubtedly be Han Jue's new work, "Dark Net".

For Han Jue's "Dark Net", Xiaochi and Xiaoxia have been concerned about it for a long time.

Not to mention idol bonuses and fan filters, they are already looking forward to it just by listening to a genre.

With the continuous advancement of civilization and technology, the market for ghost legends has gradually decreased, and it seems that the darkness of human nature is more terrifying. And the dark web, which is said to gather the darkest human nature, is almost an urban ghost story. It seems that all the evils that people can think of can be found in it, and ordinary people even look at it with fear.

Xiaochi Xiaoxia and the others knew a few programmers and were taken to see a few darknets. They didn’t deify them, but they were still eager to see the movie "Darknet" and couldn't help but want to watch it.

During the publicity yesterday, Han Jue told reporters that this new movie related to the dark web is not a documentary, and some of the settings in it are exaggerated, and there is no profound truth to explain. Everyone happily went to the theater to watch it just fine.

Then they come happily.

But Xiaochi was a little bit unhappy, because there were two movies with good lineup and promotion, and he fed Xiaochi twice. It just so happens that the heroines of both films are Millie. Xiaochi almost felt psychologically disturbed by eating shit: "But the leading actress is Millie... Old Han won't be going to the streets this time, right?"

"Crow mouth!"

"Bah bah bah."

Qianqian and Xiaoxia covered Xiaochi's mouth.

Xiaochi Neng Qu Neng Shen hurriedly changed his words: "I definitely won't rush to the street!"

"You still dare to poison milk?!"

"Take it back quickly."

Qianqian and Xiaoxia almost put their fists into Koike's mouth this time.

Xiaochi felt that it was too difficult to say a word, so he didn't say anything.

There is actually a doubt lingering in Koike's heart.

If Han Jue's new film is really as commercial and simple as he said, then how did this film enter the "Director Professional Unit" in a film festival that focuses on the essence of film?

By personal style? Technological innovation? Experimental exploration?

have no idea.

Xiaochi believes that the chances of the brains of the reviewers at the [Modu Film Festival] collectively showing off their brains are relatively low. So you can only find out when you start watching it later.

Look at the time, it's six o'clock in the evening, and there's still half an hour before you can enter the venue to watch a movie.

Xiaochi and Xiaoxia bought snacks in the cinema, and then walked to the theater where "Dark Net" was shown.

Along the way, Xiaochi wanted to use his thin body to open a way for Qianqian, but the reality was as skinny as his body. He was crowded and almost lost. Fortunately, Xiaoxia grabbed him and hung the camera around his neck. The belt, so that he will not get lost.

When they arrived at the entrance of the theater, there were already quite a few people scattered outside.

Gender was half and half, and ages ranged from teens to forties.

"Dark Net" is not a film in the main competition unit, the premiere is not big, and there is no red carpet, but as a premiere, the main creator will still be there, and even have some questions after the screening, so the premiere tickets are more expensive. It is hard to grab. There are already more people outside the theater than can be accommodated in one hall—some people come to the scene to ask for high prices for tickets. But the success rate is very low, and no one has seen anyone change hands.

Xiaochi thought, if it weren't for the fact that their movie tickets were given by Han Jue, they wouldn't know if they would have won the premiere.

Different from last year's "Zhumen Film Festival" when it was deserted, this year Han Jue's film has attracted quite a lot of attention. In addition, after the publicity kept up, "Dark Net" was not a work in the main competition, but it was still very popular, and tickets were hard to grab.

Just like the [Rookie Wall] in basketball, it was amazing to be born in the first year, but it was not recognized and accepted by the industry. Only by maintaining the level in the following year and still producing considerable results despite high expectations can we truly gain a firm foothold.

Inside and outside the industry, many people are waiting for the first wave of word-of-mouth for "Dark Net".

Among these people, some waited for Han Jue to fail, and then said meanly, "I knew, Jiang Lang was exhausted" or "I'm so disappointed, "Love Traveler" must not be directed by him." Some hope that Han Jue will continue to amaze everyone.

The last "Time and Space Traveler" received considerable praise, but it was not without negative reviews. For the sake of [this is Han Jue Virgo], most people should not be too harsh, and lightly point out some shortcomings. But in the second part, if Han Jue maintains the original level, it's fine. If there is a slight deficiency, everyone will not be polite. How should I put it, welcome to Huaxia Film and Television Circle.

But Han Jue is no longer alone. He has some people who are willing to give Han Jue more patience, encourage and support Han Jue after he fails, and let Han Jue not be afraid of failure.

Among the various people waiting, there was a small group that got together in particular, those from the Han Jue Support Club, there were nearly twenty of them in total.

They touch up makeup, chat and chat, fight and fight, a group of energetic women who have reached the age of meat and vegetables gather together, the lethality and deterrent effect are terrible. Xiaochi stopped at a distance, a little afraid of these eight women.

He saw that the woman named Jiang Yun was very agitated, jumping up and down, and kept asking them when they would have dinner with Han Jue and if they wanted to wear some nice clothes. If possible, I hope everyone will save face and let her sit in Han Jue Feel the position on the side. A sister next to Jiang Yun was also very excited, saying that she would also sit next to Han Jue. I took a closer look, oh, that's a man, Jiang Yun's husband.

"Here we come." The president nodded when he saw Xiao Xia and the others approaching.

"What are you talking about?" Qianqian asked Hu Fei while sipping the ice cream.

"Starring role." Hu Fei replied.

As soon as he heard that he was going to talk about the starring role, Koike, who had a lot of opinions on the starring lineup of "Dark Net", immediately got excited and surrounded him from the outside, wanting to participate in the debate.

The lineup of "Darknet" has been announced a long time ago. Gu Yu, Mi Li, one is a "missing person" who has disappeared for several years, and the other is a "box office poison" who has been poisonous everywhere. They really can't think of actors who are afraid of being touched by big directors. How did Han Jue find them? .

"Gu Yu, Millie... Well, the last "Love Traveler" made so much money, why... Of course, I didn't mean to say that Gu Yu and Millie were sorry." Xiaochi looked around and found that everyone With an expression of [what are you farting], Xiaochi continued to hate him and said: "Why don't you want to spend some money to hire some good actors?!"

Everyone responded one after another: "Yes!" "Yes!" "It's strange!"

They surrounded Gu Yu and Millie, and began to guess why Han Jue had to use them, but after thinking about it, they didn't think Han Jue would accept unspoken rules or any PY deal.

After chatting for nearly thirty minutes, they finally stopped talking about this topic.

The reason why they only talked about Gu Yu and Millie was not because they were soft-hearted, but because the other actors were not familiar with them at all and hadn't heard much about them.

There are newcomers, foreign actors, [Blue Whale] idols, and even Zhou Bo, haha.

"I was shocked when I saw Zhou Bo in the manual."

"I suspect that Lao Han is picky. He chose these actors just to save money."

"Eh, you can't say that..."

"Then how to say it."

"At least Lao Han spent money for Xiao Zhou to make a movie."

"It's also thick."

"I thought that Xiao Zhou was too jumpy before, and I kept wondering why he was not expelled or killed. It turned out that he was Lao Han's apprentice." Jiang Yun was amazed.

Hu Fei smiled and said: "I thought he was Lao Han's sandbag. It made Lao Han feel good, so I went out to record the show calmly."

Liu Zhijie's eyeballs twitched, wondering what picture he was thinking about. But he was immediately told by the daughter-in-law at the side not to speak or think about it, otherwise his eyeballs would be pulled out.

"You guys have too much imagination," the president shook his head helplessly, and said, "I thought Xiao Zhou was responsible for making Lao Han happy, but I really didn't expect..."

"What movie is Xiao Zhou going to make? A funny movie?"

"should be."

"..."

Listening to everyone chatting about his lifelong enemy, Xiaochi couldn't help twitching the corners of his eyes, his teeth started to become sore like biting a lemon, and he let out a defeated dog's wail in his throat.

Xiaochi only found out about this not long ago—his biggest rival, Zhou Bo, actually became a director to shoot a short film! It's not a name, not a deputy, but a director who actually takes charge of a small crew, from ideas, to preparation, to shooting, to editing, and everything.

In the past few months, Xiaochi always thought that Zhou Bo’s creative desire had declined, and his creative ability had encountered a bottleneck. While hoping that the enemy of life can recover quickly, he posted several interesting and funny videos in one breath—even the advertising videos were made very funny—finally, the number of fans surpassed and came back.

But this victory is meaningless.

Because Xiaochi never expected that Zhou Bo had been writing scripts under the guidance of Han Jue. It was an illusion that his creative desire had declined and his creative ability encountered a bottleneck. The truth is, the enemy of life has started anew and changed the map to play more advanced movies!

It's really unreasonable, unreasonable!

I don't know how to make movies! !

I don't have a master like Lao Han either! hateful! !

Isn't it just making a movie? It looks like no one knows how to do it!

After a few nights of tossing and turning, Xiaochi has decided to follow suit to change maps, pursue art, and take a real work. He has already thought about how to shoot the works. He couldn't afford a professional crew, and he didn't have the money to do it. Combining his career as a self-media person, Xiaochi plans to use mobile phones, portable video recorders, computer cameras, and even a monitor to shoot a pseudo-documentary film with various electronic devices. He checked, and no one in the film industry is doing this. If he plays well, maybe... Hehehehe~~

"Let's go, what are you thinking about? Chixian." Qianqian patted Xiaochi's head.

"Oh!" Xiaochi quickly came back to his senses, followed the team, and walked into the theater under the eyes of the audience who didn't have tickets or could only watch the movie next time.

Walking into the projection hall, a gust of cool air blows away the heat and boredom of summer nights.

There are nearly 20 screening halls in the movie theater, and the movie theater where "Dark Net" is shown is quite large, about 200.

The audience took their seats with excitement.

I am excited that I am the first ordinary audience to watch "Dark Web" in this world, and I am also excited that I will be able to see Han Jue later.

Five minutes before the screening, Han Jue appeared with a bunch of main creators.

Although many people in the room disliked Gu Yu and Millie, when they saw the stars, they couldn't help but take out their mobile phones and kept taking pictures, praising Gu Yu for being handsome and handsome, and Millie for being beautiful and fair-skinned. But the focus of the camera is always Han Jue. Even though the movie "Dark Net" gathered Gu Yu, Mi Li and some other unknown or unprofessional actors, they still resolutely bought tickets, and they were still tickets for the premiere. For nothing more than two words - Han Jue.

Han Jue took Gu Yu and Mi Li to stand in front of the theater, waving to everyone and asking them to take pictures.

Gu Yu looked mature and unmoved by all kinds of eyes from the outside world. He smiled, waved his hand gently, and looked at the audience, as if he hadn't seen his old friend for a long time.

Millie waved her hand and smiled too, but her smile was a bit forced. She seemed a little nervous, probably because she didn't know how the movie behind her would be received after it was broadcast, and she was afraid that she would not be able to turn over if she was completely confirmed as a box office poison.

The other actors were either newcomers or idols, and they didn't dare to expect too much. Being able to stand in the theater of the [Modu Film Festival] with their works was already a victory in itself.

When Han Jue looked at the old faces in the auditorium, he showed a happy expression, and when he saw other audience members, his expression was also gentle. He held the microphone and said: "Thank you for watching my movie. Now everyone can't wait to watch the movie, so I won't say anything. I will save what I have to say until after the movie is over. I hope you enjoy it." Movie."

In the end, he reminded everyone to turn their mobile phones to silent mode, and amid applause, Han Jue led the creators back to the front row and let the movie begin.

At 6:40 p.m., the screening of "Dark Net" started on time.

Koike is gearing up, ready to see how this commercial film is squeezed into the "Director Professional Unit" full of literary and artistic atmosphere.

When he saw the feature film for the first time, there was only one thought in Koike's head:

"Why, how... how did my idea get stolen?"
