Chapter 360 The Butterfly Is Here
Starting from January 19, the media noticed a detail that many well-known domestic directors began to rush to the Magic City.
There are a lot of famous Chinese directors including Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, Tsui Hark, Chen Kexin, Wong Kar-wai, Er Dongsheng, etc., including a Stephen Chow who has always been very low-key.
At first, the media was curious that except for a few of the directors who were a little free recently, all the other new films will be released or are being staged. Why are these people rushing to the Magic City?
However, some thoughts were active and thought for a while and understood that "Butterfly Effect" was about to premiere.
Wang Meng's previous works were more or less supported by directors, but this time it was the most.
Why?
It’s not a big discussion online, discussing the meaning of survival, discussing making up for regrets, and discussing whether to have a perfect life...
In short, a outline defined as being able to return to the past has produced many ideas.
At the beginning, several enthusiastic netizens discussed with each other, and gradually, many nominal experts and professors began to comment based on their professional knowledge.
These guys are a bit pure, and they don’t pay attention to the recent popular "The Vote", "Assembly", "Saw", "Bears" and so on.
Instead, we began to predict the "Butterfly Effect" film about professional knowledge such as back in the past, including psychiatry, psychology, religion, time travel, and energy conservation.
This has led to a film that has not yet been released, which has triggered a vigorous discussion.
Wang Meng knew that movies like "The Butterfly Effect" could not achieve box office outrage.
It's too profound, and it's not easy for everyone to understand it, and even feels so troublesome that I don't want to read it.
This kind of movie will only be regarded as a classic, but it is impossible to get the same result as a blockbuster at the box office.
Therefore, DreamWorks has not invested much in external publicity.
On the contrary, this kind of professional discussion online and the fans and netizens who like this kind of brain-burning movie are the biggest hit.
I hope to use these people's mouths to make "Butterfly Effect" a classic position, and then let those who are not interested in this kind of movie enter the cinema.
Sometimes it is strange that everyone has a "pretending" personality.
Often, they don’t understand much about what they see, don’t know much, and are confused, etc. This kind of culture and thoughts are highly praised.
Because I don’t understand it very much, I just think it’s great.
On the contrary, some principles are clear at a glance and some plots are easy to understand, which is low-level because your principles or plots are too easy to understand.
But isn’t it good to understand the principles that are easy to understand? I have to understand them. Is there a lot of answers in the clouds?
In fact, the truth is equal, but there are always people who are superior to others and think that the top truth is not very clear.
Just like the plot of a movie, some funny movies can actually explain some truths, but they are often ignored.
Some art films are nothing more than a little more, with a variety of statements and explanations. That’s amazing, a great truth!
So some people started to praise it, so some people joined in and praised it, so it became a classic.
Of course, isn’t it true that I can’t understand at all?
It's not like that, I can't understand it at all, that's a nonsense movie.
These movies are smart and can understand! But there are many explanations, and they all make sense. Even if you want to find fault, they have already thought of a way out.
This is like philosophy and some sects, and there are countless answers, and it is useless to refute it. The more you want to understand it, the less you understand it. The whole life of research is like that. Even if you have achieved results, it is one of countless explanations. It is just an explanation that explains to a very high level.
Smartness is just mistaken for cleverness, it seems that this is what I mean. The mechanism is planning and unable to turn the world back, so it seems that it is also emotional.
It's gone far.
In short, this kind of philosophical and sci-fi movie is closest to art. And movies that can be called art are mostly classic movies.
Wang Meng has watched the complete films of "Butterfly Movie" several times, and has also compared it with the previous work in his mind.
It's even worse than it is, then...
The original version can be called classics, let alone this one now.
At the end of this time, Wang Meng set up three ways to explain, but if you count them carefully, you can still divide them into many explanations.
In fact, every experience after traveling through time can produce an explanation.
However, the consequence of this is that it is too brain-burning.
Therefore, through his own relationship, Wang Meng contacted many directors to watch, hoping to use their words to promote it.
These directors dare not say that their IQ is so awesome, but their understanding of movies must be better than others.
It is January 20th, at 3:00 pm.
At the entrance of a cinema in the Magic City, a lot of fans and reporters gathered.
Since the movie was officially released after the genius, it was the premiere two days in advance.
This time, the premiere was not only watched by the directors, but also by the crew members, Huang Xiaoming, Xu Jinglei, Yu Feihong, Deng Chao, Wen Zhang and others, as well as artists who came to play on the red carpet in DreamWorks, and some of Wang Meng's celebrity friends.
In addition, media reporters, film critics, and lucky fans, a combination of five hundred people.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the guests started to arrive.
Wang Meng and Xu Jinglei walked on the red carpet, and Old Xu held Wang Meng. If they didn’t mention their age, they would look like a golden boy and a jade girl.
Next, the starring actors of "Butterfly Effect", Huang Xiaoming and Yu Feihong appeared.
Since then, Deng Chao, Wen Zhang, He Liqun... etc.
Every time a celebrity appears, it can make the fans scream. Fortunately, there is no set up a reporter interview session, which is more lively.
There were hundreds of fans gathered on the scene, and in addition to the fifty companies invited to enter the theater to watch movies, the fifty and sixty companies from Lin Lin came to collect folk songs.
Next, the celebrity friends invited by Wang Meng began to attend.
However, Wu Juan from the Artist Department is interesting. In order to cooperate with her newcomers, each big name is matched with her own artist.
For example, director Zhang Yimou is Tang Yan, Feng Xiaogang is Zhao Liying, and Zhao Wei, who is here to support Wang Meng, is Feng Shaofeng...
In short, every big name has its own newcomer, a match between men and women.
This led to several directors and celebrities saying that Wang Meng was getting less and less bottom line. Wang Meng smiled awkwardly, but who knew that Wu Juan did this?
However, the fans and reporters on the scene were a little crazy. This is awesome than ordinary award ceremony. They are all big stars, of course, except for the newcomers from DreamWorks.
It lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon, and the celebrity guests walked into the theater.
Since then, some invited reporters, film critics, and lucky fans have entered the theater.
The theater with a capacity of 500 people was full, and Xie Na, who had always been very grateful to Wang Meng, came to host the scene again.
Not only Xie Na, this time the happy family has come, and DreamWorks invited it.
Of course, there are also many related stars, or invited stars, who appear in performances, singing, magic, etc.
This is true in China. As a great director, Wang Meng naturally has to keep up with the trend. The premiere is no less than a party.
Wang Tian was called back by Wang Meng and sang two songs.
A poem written by Wang Meng to her "Moonlight in the Lotus Pond".
The original version of this song will be sung until 2010 Phoenix Legend, but Wang Meng 'plagiarized'.
Speaking of which, this song is one of the few songs among the Phoenix Legend songs that are not called "Salute Song".
Moreover, the Chinese style is very rich, and it is only 2008, and it appears as the title song of Wang Tian’s first album.
"Your sister is very popular this year." Feng Xiaogang turned his head and said to Wang Meng.
Wang Meng smiled after hearing this: "I have a little fame, but I still have to try it out."
‘One person is enlightened and the chicken and dog are ascending to heaven’, this is a bit of a loss to Wang Meng, but that’s it. In April this year, Wang Tian’s first album was released.
Wang Meng contributed five of the ten songs, including the previous songs "Left", "Bao Face", "Painted Heart", etc., as well as songs received by DreamWorks.
In short, Wang Tian was so popular that it was revealed that at the beginning of the year, her second album will be released.
However, when Wang Meng was annoyed in the early stage, she wrote a few songs for Wang Meng, but she ignored them afterwards. Wu Juan was always controlling them.
Wang Tian’s name “Sweetheart Little Princess” has always been used. As Wang Meng’s sister, she has the support of Wang Meng’s fans without cracks in nature.
Let’s put it this way! Wang Tian is no less popular than Fan Bingbing now.
The show lasted until six o'clock, and after that, Wang Meng brought the crew of "Butterfly Effect" to the stage.
After simply accepting questions from reporters and fans, the movie officially began.
The reporter's question is simple, it is nothing more than expectations for achievements.
Wang Meng's answer also surprised the reporters and guests. Wang Meng said: "Actually, I don't have much requirements for the box office of "Butterfly Effect". I think it's enough to not lose money."
"Director Wang is so unconfident?" The reporter was curious.
"In fact, it's not that it's not that it's that the movie is very deep, not that it's the blockbuster movie in the sense, it's very brain-burning and a bit depressing, especially when it's time for the Chinese New Year, I think the popularity of the fans will be affected."
"Are you talking about the plot?" reporter.
"Yes, the plot is a bit heavy, and it has a strong range of thriller, suspense and philosophy. Let's watch it for yourself." Wang Meng said.
In fact, it is false to say that Wang Meng has no goal to this film.
But as he said, he wants glory rather than box office, and wants to be a classic rather than a simple cast.
However, the box office is still a bit expected, and as for why I say this, it is still a routine.
The movie has begun.
