The Road to Rebirth of the Movie King

In December, the city of B was paved with heavy snow. As night approached, the sky became darker and darker, and the snowflakes fluttered, like feathers flying all over the sky, like white and tender petals, soft and thick, pure and flawless, not tight Don't slow down.

The street lamps are lit one by one, the traffic on the road is blocked, travel is difficult, the weather is bad, and the temperature is extremely cold, but despite all these difficulties, the VIP screening hall of Huayang Film City is still overcrowded today. Many film critics, filmmakers and The very small number of fans and audience who got tickets through their relationship sat in their seats early, the leading actors and creators have not yet appeared, and the number of media reporters has exceeded the specifications of the normal premiere.

Among the crowd, some were movie fans who came in a hurry just to see the movie for the first time, some were film critics who were invited to attend the premiere, but most of them heard the news that Zhang Yanan would come to the premiere. The entertainment reporter came here with a camera on his shoulders to celebrate his apprentices at the screening, but what everyone didn't expect was that Zhang Yan'an, another master in the film director circle, came instead of waiting.

Now that the premiere has not yet started, the seats are almost full. Everyone is chatting with people they know and exchanging some opinions. In this scene of whispering and whispering, there are always a steady stream of people around the two people in the middle of the seat. To strike up a conversation, it is very conspicuous from the audience.

A new reporter found this scene very strange, so he patted the shoulder of the senior next to him and asked, "Who is that bald middle-aged man in a sweater? There are so many people around him, and he still has a fierce expression on his face." !"

The old reporter glanced at him, his expression a little impatient, but he still warned softly: "Be careful what you say, that is director Yang Nianhong, you know "Amidst the Rain and Blossoms", the best film of the last Global Awards was made by him. Yes, and the one next to him, wearing black, is Mr. Xia Qiyao Xia, an old man who can't afford to hire him, a veteran of the film critic circle."

Speaking of this, the old reporter frowned as if muttering to himself: "But they probably don't have any friendship with He Mingye, why would they watch a movie of a junior, isn't it just a historical movie, and it's not a big deal Production, it's really weird, what kind of wind brought the two of you here..."

At [-]:[-] p.m., the premiere ceremony officially began. The host came on stage first. After a burst of cheerful opening remarks, the director and leading actors appeared in turn under the warm applause of the audience. .

As soon as Ye Changshi came to the stage, he saw Yang Nianhong in the middle of the seat, raised his head and smiled at him. Although the other party still looked serious, he still nodded in response.

Because he took over the male lead of "Empire of the Dark Night", Ye Changshi often talked with Director Yang on the phone to exchange plots in the past few months. Occasionally, he mentioned the upcoming "Return to Dream" during the chat. Considering that Y City is quite close to City B, so Ye Changshi asked He Mingye for two premiere tickets and sent them to Yang Nianhong. He thought he would bring his wife to attend, but he never expected that Director Yang would save face in such a way that the film critics The seniors have been invited here, so this can be considered unintentional.

Yang Nianhong was also in a good mood at the seat. After exchanging the plot with Ye Changshi several times, he found that this young man is really not simple. He not only knows a lot in various fields, but also has many unique insights in terms of roles. He has When I study the script for too long, I will unconsciously get into a dead end. At this time, when I make a call to Ye Changshi and listen to a few words from him, I will suddenly see the light, and even suddenly come up with some useful inspiration for filming!

Therefore, he really likes this junior now. Recently, he saw the news of "Back to Dream" and had the idea of ​​watching this movie he acted in. He seemed to mention it inadvertently during the call, but he didn't expect that the next day I received the premiere ticket of "Back to Dream" from City A!Knowing that Ye Changshi had no father or mother, Yang Nianhong felt that such an obedient child was an orphan. At that moment, he thought of recognizing him as a godson, so this time he decided to find his friend who had not been out of the mountain for a long time. , Give support to the future son.

No, as soon as the leading actor came on stage, Yang Nianhong smiled and said to Xia Qiyao next to him: "Did you see the kid in the white shirt? The protagonist in my next movie has good acting skills. He is clean and smart, and he is not like now." Some young people in the circle are just as impetuous, if I have a daughter, I have to marry him, but it's the same now, I'm already planning to adopt him as my godson!

Xia Qiyao couldn't help stabbing his friend when he saw his complacent look: "It's really so good, don't pretend!"

Yang Nianhong became unhappy when he heard the words, and said angrily, "I've known him for so long and still don't know, you're just jealous of me, old bastard!"

Xia Qiyao and Yang Nianhong have been friends for decades, and he knows the other party's stubborn and irritable temper very well, so he doesn't care if he scolds him, but this is the first time he has seen a friend vent his anger on a junior, He couldn't help being a little curious about this young man named Ye Changshi.

He is a writer and also a film critic. He has been in this industry for more than 30 years. He has seen too many movies and written countless film reviews. Compared with those who dare to call themselves professional film critics after two or three years Boneless Scribe has too many qualifications. He knows that many filmmakers and audiences have already regarded his film reviews as beacons for movies. This also puts a lot of pressure on him. He dare not go casually without a thorough understanding. To comment on the quality of a movie, some film companies were even willing to pay millions of dollars for him to write a movie review with hundreds of words, but he refused them all, but it was also due to such a serious and responsible attitude that he In order to board the veteran seat of today's film critics circle.

It's just that with the rise of the Internet, it's easy for the film critics to make money. Especially after Weibo, there are a large number of film critics of varying quality. The evil phenomenon is deeply abhorrent, but even if he strongly condemns it, he still cannot eradicate the breeding of such money-only pests. The film company even specially raises such a group of obedient film critics. Xia Qiyao feels very disappointed in them. For this reason, he has It’s been a long time since I’ve been invited to write a film review. This time I came to the premiere of “Back to the Dream” because of Yang Nianhong’s invitation. He didn’t plan to write a film review, and he wasn’t too curious about the film itself. But now, because of his friend's praise of the young man, he wanted to take a serious look at it.

After the leading actors on the stage greeted each other in turn, there were some simple and routine questions and interactions. Although there were no rehearsals and scripts, everyone performed very well. I can still speak up.

After the premiere ceremony was over, it was time for the last movie broadcast that everyone was looking forward to. With the stepping down of the host, the lights in the screening hall gradually dimmed. They all concentrated their attention, and there were whispers from the audience around them.

After a while, the lights were completely dimmed, and the big screen lit up with a faint light. Various production and production logos appeared and disappeared quickly, and the melodious music that slowly rose below reverberated throughout the auditorium.

The title ended and the main film began to play. On the big screen, the camera glides from a distant high altitude and then gradually sinks. In the clear picture, there are continuous vast mountains and magnificent scenery. The lakes are as bright as mirrors!

Accompanied by the quaint music, the camera slowly moves down to the vast wilderness, the sun sets in the west, and a round sun in the sky slowly falls from the horizon at the junction of the sunset and the field, and the whole sky is dissatisfied like a fire The gorgeous colors are like a phoenix spreading its wings and flying, like the blooming of thousands of crabapple flowers. The crimson color and brown color blend together, and the sun rays illuminate the whole field into golden yellow.

The camera gradually advances toward a straight path in the middle of the field. A carriage appears leisurely in front of the brilliant sunset background. Seven or eight people who have returned home from farm work stand aside to watch. The young man in blue in the car looked back and smiled gently at the camera, like a moonlight in the dark, a flower that blooms suddenly, just one glance is enough to amaze the world!
