Chapter 55: Depression and fun-loving people are a better match!
On New Year's Day, Han Zhou, Chen Xiaoyong and Zhang Jiuqun were sleeping soundly in the office.
Once you fall asleep, you won’t know when day has arrived.
These days, Han Zhou was editing "This Man Comes from Earth", with Chen Xiaoyong and Zhang Jiuqun assisting him.
In Han Zhou's words, it only cost less than 30,000 yuan to make the movie, so how could he spend 200,000 yuan to let an editor edit the movie? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?
Moreover, at least 15,000 out of the 30,000 was paid by Zheng Jianjun, which was considered as the tuition fee for Zheng Changhe... Zheng Xiaolong.
We borrowed equipment from Hengdian’s official film and television company, and the rental fee was only three thousand yuan for two days.
Saves so much money!
As for the debt in music, Han Zhou could only say sorry.
When I become famous and make a lot of money, one day I will invite a symphony orchestra to play these instruments, but for now, everyone just listen to them...
Han Zhou turned over from the single bed, his hair a mess on his head.
With a confused look on his face, he touched the fire and smoke.
I was originally about to drink some water, but when I touched the cigarette, I took out one.
In the quiet office, smoke began to rustle.
A wisp of green smoke rose.
“Snap!”
The moment the door was knocked open.
There was another “Zheng!”
Zhang Jiuquan pushed the door open excitedly, and saw Han Zhou draw his sword and raise it in one go.
"There's an assassin, help!"
"Don't come near me. I'm telling you, I'm good at killing people in my dreams!"
Zhang Jiuquan was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and pulled away the unsharpened sword: "Boss! Let's go watch a movie!"
Han Zhou, with his messy hair, was holding a cigarette in his mouth, and the smoke made it difficult for him to open his right eye.
He looked back at the scabbard several times before poking the sword back: "What kind of movie is this in the middle of the day?"
Zhang Jiuquan was stunned: "It's five o'clock! Five o'clock in the afternoon!"
"Boss, you should find an assistant. Didn't the actor named Wei Yang suddenly die in his sleep last year? I think you need someone to check regularly to see if you are still alive."
Han Zhou turned over and put on his clothes, shaking the cigarette ash into a disposable cup: "It's already five o'clock, how did you solve your lunch?"
Zhang Jiuquan: "Of course...I didn't eat it."
Han Zhou stood up, put on his slippers, and zipped up his clothes: "Wait for me to go to the bathroom, and then I'll go eat."
"What about two?"
"My second brother is watching the finished film."
Han Zhou washed and then walked out.
Zhang Jiuquan and Chen Xiaoyong are ready to go.
The three of them went downstairs and had a set meal at Shaxian Snacks.
When they came out, the three of them each lit a cigarette on the side of the road.
Zhang Jiuquan: "Go watch Hello Mr. Tree."
"No." Han Zhou held a cigarette in his mouth. "I'm about to vomit after watching so much."
I reviewed every shot when filming, reviewed it again when checking the shot library, reviewed it again when editing, and even watched it with Wang Xiya three times after editing.
No matter how good the acting is, it can’t withstand being watched so many times in a short period of time!
Besides, Han Zhou is not a narcissistic person. He can appreciate his own performance at most three times and then he can't be narcissistic anymore.
Chen Xiaoyong: "Come on, Brother Han, let's go take a look and learn how Tianle does film marketing and film format production."
"Besides, today is the premiere of Hello Mr. Tree."
"You don't give me any money." Han Zhou: "What does the premiere have to do with me..."
"Forget it, let's go."
The three of them got into Han Zhou's broken second-hand van and drove all the way to Hengdian Times CBD.
After going upstairs, Chen Xiaoyong went to buy drinks and Zhang Jiuquan went to get tickets.
Han Zhou admired the small poster of himself in the cinema.
In the cinema, the largest poster or roll-up banner is of an American film called "Robot".
The largest poster on the wall is of an American film called "Mars Retrograde".
To put it simply, during the New Year's Day period, American films were competing against each other.
As for domestic films, there is a feature film called "Sleeping Peacefully" and an animated film called "Dora the Mouse".
Han Zhou stood in front of the poster, opened his phone and took a look.
Wang Xiya sent a picture showing the screening rate statistics.
The screening rate of "Mars Retrograde" is as high as 31%.
"Robot" has a screening rate of up to 23%, and its poster is the largest. It may be because they want less box office share than "Mars Retrograde", so theaters are willing to promote them.
The screening rate of "Sleeping Safely" is 18 percent.
The screening rate of "Dora the Mouse" is 15%.
The combined screening rate of these four films is as high as 87%.
The screening rate of "Hello Mr. Tree" is 8%.
In order to free up so much screening time, the screening times for movies scheduled to be released in mid-last month were almost all cut.
Han Zhou opened the ticket purchasing software to see how the fans were scolding him.
After clicking it, Han Zhou had a lot of question marks on his mind.
"It's so fucking healing! I didn't expect Han Zhou to be such a good director!"
"An Lan fans don't want to talk, just watch your performance."
"Wow, I wasn't in a good mood last year, but after watching this movie, I'm finally happy. This New Year's Day, I'm finally happy!"
"To be honest, the guest appearances by Chen Feng and Liu Yiling are also very funny and worth watching."
Han Zhou could only say that he had forgotten that his fans were just for fun.
These animals.
What’s the difference between him and the college student who tricked those villagers into getting beaten by the crazy girl!
However, movie fans gave it very high ratings.
As high as nine point six.
Those who entered the cinema on the first day were either fans of An Lan, fans of Chen Feng and Liu Yiling, or fans of Han Zhou.
Fans give ratings, just for fun.
But with such a high score, it can at least stabilize at around 9.2 in the end.
People who sold tickets to watch the movie gave it a score of 9.2, so on professional rating websites, the score should be around 8.5.
However, according to the consistent pattern of giving one point lower to domestic films and one point higher to foreign films, the final score should be 7.5.
However, Mr. Shu’s films are in a rural style, which can add 0.5 points to his score.
That's eight points.
In addition, Tianle will operate on its own, and the final score is estimated to be between 8.3 and 8.5.
However, with the publicity from this group of fun fans, it is hard to say whether the score will drop in the future!
Han Zhou opened Weibo.
My last Weibo post was taken on the set of "This Man From Earth".
At that time, Han Zhou pulled Ye Manyi together to shoot a short video.
It was probably that Han Zhou taught Ye Manyi how to do the wall-dong move, and then told Ye Manyi that there was a move called the leg-dong move.
The video ended with Ye Manyi kicking Han Zhou in the face.
Most of the comments under the video at this time are relatively short.
"Should!"
"Ouch, it hurts! It hurts so much! Why didn't you kick harder?!"
"Don't misunderstand, new friends. We feel sorry for Han Zhou. Han Zhou's new movie is hilarious. Go watch it!"
Han Zhou's group of fans is transforming from a huge group of patients into the largest telecommunications fraud gang in history.
These people even commented in the comment section: "Brother Meng, An Lan's super topic and comment section are a bit overwhelmed, come to support quickly!"
Han Zhou went to An Lan's Weibo.
An Lan’s last Weibo post was to promote “Hello Mr. Tree”.
To be precise, it was a video of An Lan participating in the "Hello Mr. Tree" roadshow in Yanjing in the morning.
An Lan sang "Born to be Human" at the roadshow.
An Lan fans below: "Wow, crying~"
"I don't want to talk right now."
"I smoked seven cigarettes downstairs at the cinema, and when I turned around, I saw that the battery of the electric bike parked behind me was gone. Damn it!"
“Hahaha, although Goddess An made a lot of sacrifices in this play, the comedy effect is very good. I highly recommend "Hello Mr. Tree"!”
Obviously, this message was left by Han Zhou's fans.
Soon, An Lan's fans realized something.
Why am I the only one who is depressed?
Why do I feel so upset?
"Oh my, this "Hello Mr. Tree" is so funny, Han Zhou is really sick... What a talent! It's so depressing... It heals me, I keep making typos out of excitement!"
"Mr. Shu's kneeling was so funny. I laughed when I saw it."
"Mute Xiaomei and idiot Shuge finally get married, and there's even a sex scene!"
"What? Goddess An is filming a sex scene? Damn! Check it out again and I'll report back!"
"Let me buy a ticket and go to Kang Kang. I'll tell you guys after I see it."
"I've finished watching it. I can only say it's so good! I covered my mouth and cried/jpg"
Han Zhou spent a long time browsing Weibo. Zhang Jiuquan said, “It’s time to start.”
The three of them entered the cinema together.
Entering the cinema, the movie started soon.
When the Dragon Mark ended, the subtitles of Tianle Film and Television appeared accompanied by a very strange sound.
As soon as the subtitles ended, an even more bizarre scene appeared.
The tree played by Han Zhou squatted on a big tree that was withered and leafless but had very dense branches.
Crouch sideways.
Holding head with one hand.
Slowly raise your head.
Slowly, an eye appeared, as if looking at the audience through the screen.
When he raised his head again, his eyes seemed to be looking in a very far distance.
The screen went black and three big blood-red words "Mr. Shu" appeared on the screen.
As the camera moves, a "Sun City" real estate promotion vehicle with a large loudspeaker drives over, promoting the good things about Sun City.
The car drove away, and the camera remained on this shabby auto repair shop at the corner of a dilapidated rural street, which did not look like a car repair shop. The camera entered through the broken glass window.
Between the sound of welding and the light, the camera moved to the tree.
The tree crawled out of the repair pit under the car, and its body movements were extremely awkward.
"Has the car been repaired?"
The first sentence of Shu Ge in the whole play is casual and unconcerned: "Tsk~"
"Let him go..."
Han Zhou didn't want to watch any further after seeing this, because he didn't need to watch every scene, it existed in Han Zhou's mind and was more real than seeing it with his eyes.
Every detail flashes in my mind.
Han Zhou didn't look at it, but Zhang Jiuquan and Chen Xiaoyong were watching it intently.
Chen Xiaoyong has watched it once, but he didn’t watch the whole thing last time, so he will watch it carefully this time.
Zhang Jiuquan wanted to see what the boss, who finished shooting "This Man From Earth" in three days, actually made in his first movie.
Time flows slowly.
When Brother Shu knelt down, the cinema was dead silent.
Many people were confused about the following plots.
The few who understand it have already entered the realm of emo before them.
And most people, as time goes by, also become emo.
Halfway through the movie theater, many people were still wondering why they couldn't understand it.
In the second half, what does it have to do with the plot?
If you understand the plot of mental illness, then it is wrong.
I don't understand the plot, but it's just too depressing.
As the movie came to an end, the theater fell into silence.
After the movie ended, many people hurriedly got up and fled the theater.
Some people were sprawled on the seats.
Someone else said: "Fuck, what a scammer on the Internet, I'm here to have fun, damn!"
The brother next to him: "Hurry up and curse the bastard who lied to you!"
The man pulled out his phone: “No, no, no.”
And then he posted a movie review: "Oh, so hilarious, I laughed like a fool after watching it ~ Hahahaha ~ Woohoo, when can I see such a good movie, woohoo ~"
“It’s beautiful and funny!”
Zhang Jiuquan couldn't calm down for a long time after reading it.
The three of them walked out of the cinema together.
Outside the cinema, there was a lot of smoke.
As soon as they walked out of the door, many people took out cigarettes and fire, lit them up, and took a deep puff.
It is estimated that in cinemas across the country, at least today, the workload of cleaning ladies will be much greater.
Zhang Jiuquan took a long puff of his cigarette, and then said, "Fuck! The people who made this movie are worthless!"
Just as Chen Xiaoyong was about to grab him by the back of his neck, Zhang Jiuquan continued: "It's God!"
Han Zhou was happy: "Let's go back."
“I have to make a song.”
Zhang Jiuquan and Chen Xiaoyong showed interest: "Is this the song for the Shanghai road show of "Hello Mr. Tree" tomorrow?"
"Will you be able to listen to it tonight?"
“ What kind of song are you going to write?”
