Section 537: The Movie Begins

The history of the development of film can be reflected to a certain extent by the history of the development of the screen.

In the 1920s and 1930s, the screens used were usually 3 meters * 19 meters in size, and there were 4*92, 4*3, etc., which were basically around 3 and 4 meters. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the number of theaters gradually recovered and grew. Such small screens were obviously not suitable for screening in theaters, especially in some large theaters. Such sizes were even more inappropriate, so small screens of 7-9 meters appeared. Of course, this seemed to be a large screens at that time. Later, after the reform and opening up, the number of theaters increased year by year, and the specifications were improved as they were, and the more they were repaired, the bigger the repairs were. The small screens of 7 and 8 meters were no longer suitable for larger theaters, so a standard screen of 11-13 meters appeared. This is the mainstream screen configuration in China now. It can be said that more than 95% of regular theaters in the country mainly used this standard screen size screen.

And in the 21st century, with the emergence of imax, the size of the screen has been further expanded, and it is no longer 2 or 3 meters added. It directly doubled on the basis of the standard screen, and it has reached the terrifying number of 22 meters. Moreover, 22 meters is only the beginning, imax can be completely larger.

In the main hall of Shanghai Grand Theater, there is a large screen now. To be precise, the specific size of the curtain here is 3 meters * 3 meters.

This super large curtain was installed by IMAX company in one day, and the main hall has been renovated accordingly. The supporting speakers, placement locations, angles, etc. have been debugged. A total of 1,000 people can be accommodated at the same time, which is enough to undertake the premiere of "Jurassic Park".

Duane is sitting in front of this super curtain at this moment and is being interviewed by the media.

Before the screening was opened, the lights in the main hall are bright now. Sitting on the stage, you can see a variety of faces extending below, yellow, white, black and all colors, extending to the top of the mountain where you need to look up and look out.

It is January 26, 2009, the first night of the Lunar New Year, and it is also the premiere of "Jurassic Park".

The Spring Festival films, those who are confident in the Spring Festival basically choose to premiere on this day, mainly to avoid New Year's Eve. After all, whoever starts the premiere on the night of New Year's Eve will die, which is something that you don't have to think about. However, the first day of the New Year is completely different, especially after entering the 21st century, people increasingly choose to enter various entertainment venues on the day of the New Year's Day rather than staying at home, Internet cafes, cinemas, kTV and other places in recent years, can be said to be the hottest moment in business on these days, and they are probably one of the few companies that have increased their workload without resting during the New Year.

"Hello Jia Hongsheng, this is the "Xinlu Daily". Will you continue to maintain this muscle?"

"Yes, unless the director in my next movie asks me not to have muscle."

"Hello Song Zhen, this is Sujiang Satellite TV. Will you continue to work with Director Duane in your next movie?"

"If Director Du comes to me and I like the script, then I think I should do it."

...

The premiere of the red carpet show was almost done, and the screening was almost started after the questioning session, and at this time, a question was thrown at Duane.

"Director Du, this is "Shen Bao". Judging from the trailer, the movie "Jurassic Park" has a lot of bloody scenes. Many people think it will be a film with protection or even restriction, but why can it eventually get the tutoring level classification?"

Duane glanced around the bottom, and finally locked in the guy who asked the question, picked up the microphone and smiled, saying, "You should ask the people on the audit committee for this question, not me, I can't answer you." He exposed this topic with some offensiveness in an understatement.

"Jurassic Park" was finally divided into the tutoring level. At this level, everyone can enter the cinema to watch the movie. The only thing to note is that children under the age of 12 need to be accompanied by their parents to watch it. In addition to the general level, this can be said to be the best level, with a large audience, and expanding the audience is undoubtedly a good way to increase the box office.

Answer the question and go through the process. The premiere is finally over. The main creator's team came to the scene and everyone is ready to watch this movie with record production costs.

Duane sat on the chair and looked ahead, silent, with a deep and lazy look.

Although the movie has not been released yet, he has guessed that some people's comments after watching the movie, those people will probably criticize this work without connotation, soul and depth. They will probably be "very disappointed" and lament that "this movie that consumes huge production costs is not even as profound as an animation like "The Lion King".

But this movie is the movie he really wants to make, and it is also the real movie he thinks is.

In Duane's view, many Chinese movies today are actually not movies, but just "story". When it comes to TV series and novels, they are also valid, and may even be more expressive than a form like a movie. What he wants is not this kind of thing, what he wants is a movie, a real movie, only in the form of a movie, can its complete charm be reflected in the theater.

And "Jurassic Park" is the product that meets his requirements. In his opinion, this is the real movie...

"Why are the gap between people so big?"

Wei Yang looked at a place far away in front of him and sighed at the back of someone's head, but in fact he couldn't see it at all.

"Just a year ago, we were colleagues and we had dinner together in the cafeteria, but now she is standing that high."

Zhang Rong said lightly: "We are still colleagues now."

Wei Yang grinned, withdrew his gaze from the front, turned his head to look at the person beside him, and said, "Come on, how many months can she come back? She didn't even attend this year's end-of-year awards, which is already obvious."

Zhang Rong didn't refute it, because it was indeed the truth.

In fact, she felt more deeply than Wei Yang, because Wei Yang and Song Zhen were just colleagues, while she and Song Zhen were roommates at the time, and they lived in the same room, but now Song Zhen has not returned to that dormitory for more than half a year.

“One day we can do this, too,”

Zhang Rong was silent for a while before saying.

Wei Yang refused to comment, "It should be no big problem to be a little actor, but he is the protagonist of a movie worth 600 million yuan..." He shook his head repeatedly, "It's so fantasy."

Even though he is already well-known now, with more than 100,000 followers on Weibo, he is also very popular in theaters, and is often recognized around the theaters, and has even started to participate in dramas with crews outside the Chang'an Division, but he is still desperate about Song Zhen's current height.

This is not on the same order of magnitude at all.

"She is so scary... You know, because of her, there are so many newcomers now, which makes us older seniors more stressed."

Zhang Rong nodded.

Song Zhen is now the hottest group of young actresses in the Chinese entertainment industry, and reports about her are naturally indispensable. In these reports, she mentioned her trajectory of making a fortune. One part that cannot be avoided is the Chang'an Group. The Chang'an Group itself is in a process of constantly absorbing employees to grow and grow. Many people with star dreams have found this way after seeing the report. This has led to the Chang'an Group's recruitment work this year being extremely smooth, and the quality of employees recruited in all aspects is much better than at the beginning. Many of them are talents with relevant experience and expertise in film and television, which has caused the original pressure of these old employees to double.

But it is fortunate that they are old enough and have a solid foundation in popularity. Not those newcomers can shake it for the time being. Take the Second People's Choice Award, which just ended half a month ago. The popular members who won the awards are basically the first and second batch of employees who came in the first year. Last year, only one of the newcomers won the most popular supporting actress, and the only one is Miaomiao.

"Okay, watch a movie."

Zhang Rong originally wanted to say something, but the lights in the hall were completely gone and darkened, and light came out of the curtain.

"The movie is beginning."
