Zhang Weiming is definitely a die-hard fan of Wang Yifan.

Of course, in recent years, Zhang Weiming has also received a lot of red envelopes due to Wang Yifan's movies.

Every time Wang Yifan, or even Xingmeng or Huaxin, has a new movie released and preview screenings, Zhang Weiming, the film critics who have been working happily, are definitely invited.

This time is naturally no exception.

Speaking of which, Zhang Weiming didn't like Wang Yifan's movie at first, but the turning point began with the film "Father".

The deeper the experience in many industries, the greater the impact, and the same is true for the film critic industry.

In fact, many film critics have not earned a lot. After all, if someone invites film critics to write comments, the first thing is that you have to be qualified to invite others.

Therefore, many film critics change their careers as they do it. There is no way to make a meal.

Zhang Weiming is considered to be a film critic with a relatively high income. He is currently providing submissions to the Huaxun Film section, and he is considered a column film critic.

Therefore, for this movie, he can not only get a considerable payment from "Edge of Tomorrow", but also get a royal fee from Huaxun Entertainment.

"Old Yu, you are here too." After Zhang Weiming entered the theater, he greeted another film critic with a smile. The film critic circle said that it was big or small.

Yu Sheng is also a film critic and a regular visitor to Huaxin. To put it bluntly, film critics have to have a meal, so of course they have to have a good relationship with some film production companies, theaters, etc., at least they can remember to invite you when they are previewed.

"Old Zhang, you're a little late." Yu Sheng said with a smile.

Zhang Weiming took a look at the cinema, and the theaters that can accommodate 500 people can be said to be basically full.

"Talk back!" Zhang Weiming nodded, replied, and then went to find his seat.

Some people may ask, aren’t preview theaters all invitation-only? Are there still times when they are dissatisfied with the theater?

The answer is of course yes. Inviting film critics and media requires money. If you invite too many, it is also a considerable fee, which is not something that ordinary movies can afford.

So most of the time, special previews may not be able to be full.

"Sorry, please let me..."

I rushed to the golden position in the middle, and as soon as I sat down, I found that there were two acquaintances next to me.

"Old Lin, Lao Chen, it's so strange, you are here too." Zhang Weiming couldn't help but quip.

The old Lin and Lin Kan mentioned by Zhang Weiming are film critics of the film column of "New Weekly". Everyone is in the same circle. Zhang Weiming has worked with the other party, so he is more familiar with it.

The reason why he asked Lin Kan that he had time to watch a movie was because film critics actually had a camp. For example, Zhang Weiming, who is the kind of film critic who is more in line with the trend, will not look down on commercial movies and promote literary and artistic movies.

But Lin Kan is just the opposite. He particularly doesn't like commercial movies. Many times, the movies he will watch are all literary and artistic movies.

Another one, Chen Qun, is different. Chen Qun is a contracted film critic of Times Entertainment. It can be said that he is the pen of Times Light and Shadow Group. This kind of pen is available in major groups.

The major giants often criticize each other, and the leading actors are those who sign contracts with their film critics.

"Haha, my old boss also has investment in this movie, so what's so strange about me?" Chen Qun said with a smile.

Another Lin Kan shook his head and said, "There is no way to make a meal. Now literary and artistic movies are almost dead. If you don't change, you will have no food to eat."

Zhang Weiming and Chen Qun smiled at each other, right? Although Lin Kan and other literary and artistic critics are not as exaggerated as he said, the fact is that the public relations fees and red envelopes given by commercial blockbusters are not comparable to those literary and artistic films?

Many literary and artistic movies don’t do any previews at all because they are useless.

Moreover, they are really short of money. How could they give film critics a red envelope?

After the three of them said a few words, the lights in the theater dimmed and the movie was about to begin.

At the beginning of the movie, the icons of the production company that appeared were Xingmeng Entertainment, then Huaxin, Times Light and Shadow, Jiuzhou, and so on.

"Edge of Tomorrow" can be said to have brought in domestic private giants and Huaying. There is no money to make. Only by dividing the benefits in this way can we gain support from everyone.

Then there are a few very conspicuous big words, directed by Wang Yifan!

Then, the screen began to appear on the big screen, and the first thing that appeared in the screen was a bit like the snowflakes when the signal was not received on the TV.

Then, it gradually became clear and the picture began to appear.

However, the picture is black and white, and it looks a bit stuttering, and the picture quality is not very clear. It feels like a black and white TV at home when I was a child. There are many cumbersome and very textured.

Tokyo Tower, Krumlin, Buckingham Palace, Paris Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower, Egyptian Pyramids... Of course, the White House, which has been bombed in Hollywood movies many times.

Iconic buildings around the world were instantly hit by countless fireballs falling from the sky and collapsed with a bang.

Then countless aliens covered with tentacles appeared on the big screen. Many tentacles swept across a large area, and fireballs shot out from their mouths to shoot down bombers from the sky.

In just a few dozen seconds at the beginning of the movie, this large screening hall that can accommodate 500 people was overwhelmed by various aircraft, cannons, warships, aircraft carriers, tanks, armored vehicles, missiles and alien attacks. Seven or eight sounds were mixed together, and no one could tell what sound was.

Then all the sounds stopped, and what appeared on the big screen was ruins, scorched earth, and a scene of the apocalypse.

Then colors finally appeared on the big screen.

In a TV, a host is broadcasting the news.

It turns out that these scenes are the host introducing the current situation facing the earth.

"At present, due to the invasion of aliens, Europe, America, Africa, Southeast Asia, and Central Asia have all fallen in just three years, a large number of foreigners come to China to take refuge, and leaders from all over the world form a coalition of earth in China.

As the only remaining power on Earth, our country of China has the responsibility to lead the Earth coalition to drive alien invaders out of Earth!”

"It's interesting! It's finally our Chinese people's turn to save the world and the earth. Just for this, I'm going to give high scores!" A relatively young media reporter and audience couldn't help but smile.

"This special effect is so satisfying. The first ten seconds were so cool, but unfortunately it was too short! The director of our Chinese films finally started to explode the White House. I have been waiting for many years." said an online film critic.

"It's so ignited at the beginning, and I think it won't disappoint you!"

In the first twenty seconds of "Edge of Tomorrow", there are actually quite a lot of money. Although some of them are synthesized through other videos, many of them are shot in real life.

Although these are just background introductions, who dares to say that it is not important?
Chapter completed!
