It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 1115 Copyright tycoon makes a shining appearance! Want to learn? I can’t learn!

If we were to chronicle the history of global film, then in the brilliant starry sky of Hollywood, December 2017 is destined to be an extraordinary month.

Because today, the sci-fi blockbuster that has attracted the attention of movie fans all over the world, "Ready Player One", will officially debut in front of global audiences!

The North American premiere of this film has become an event that many movie lovers, media and people from all walks of life are looking forward to.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the Hollywood and Highland Center in Los Angeles was immersed in an atmosphere of joy and anticipation.

Today, the Kodak Theater is attracting attention from all over the world.

No other reason! It’s because “Ready Player One” is about to hold a grand world premiere ceremony here!
Long before the premiere, under the operation of Walton Pictures, the film crew had already begun a series of elaborate preheating activities.

In order to allow the audience to experience the unique charm of the virtual world "Oasis" in the movie in advance, the special effects team specially set up a cool experience hall based on a large open space outside the Kodak Theater.

This experience hall is a perfect replica of the movie scene. Every blade of grass, every brick and every tile seem to be directly moved out of the "oasis".

When the guests, invited media and movie fans stepped into it, it was as if they had instantly traveled to the future world of 2045 that was full of technology and fantasy!
At this time, outside the experience hall, a long queue had formed, winding along the entire street.

The fans are full of enthusiasm and ignore the long wait, just to be the first to enter this mysterious "oasis".

Among them are young students, their eyes sparkling with infinite yearning for the world of science fiction; there are also senior movie lovers, holding movie peripherals, excitedly communicating with their companions about their expectations for the film; there are also many cosplayers in strange costumes, who play the characters in the movie, adding a different color to this feast.

As time went on, the premiere venue was gradually filled with the crowd.

The lights on the scene were bright and the atmosphere was warm and solemn!
On both sides of the red carpet, media reporters had already set up their cameras, ready to capture every wonderful moment.

When Chen Fei led stars including Timothée Chalamet, Emma Roberts, Leonardo DiCaprio, Matthew McConaughey and others onto the red carpet, thunderous applause and cheers broke out at the scene.

“So many people?!”

I don't know what Leo was thinking, but he suddenly did Zhou Xun's signature move, and the greasy feeling suddenly overflowed uncontrollably.

Chen Fei smiled and waved to fans and media, and reminded them: "Don't forget, you are playing the villain in this movie, don't play tricks on me!"

"Okay." Leonardo nodded slightly and immediately put away his playful intention.

A villain has to look like a villain, and as an actor, he can easily control his state.

In addition to the director and the leading actors, there were also many Hollywood celebrities who came to support the event.

For example, the Marvel team, these people are indispensable. Every time they appear, they are grand and eye-catching!

Their arrival made the premiere even more star-studded, as if it were a top Hollywood party.

"I'm afraid that the Oscars to be held next year won't be able to invite so many big names to attend, right?"

Jeff Jones, the new president of DC Films, also came to the scene and was amazed at the lively scene in the Kodak Theater.

At this time, standing next to him was James Wan, the director of "Aquaman".

The latter smiled cheerfully and explained: "Fei's appeal in Hollywood is indeed unmatched."

"Can you make an introduction for me?" Jeff Jones asked with a little anticipation.

He is not the fool that Hamada is.

Although DC and Marvel are indeed competitors, in his opinion, there is no need to be so "hostile".

Moreover, DC is weak now and has no qualifications to compete with Marvel for the market. The best approach should be to take the essence and discard the dross.

James Wan thought for a few seconds, and finally nodded, thinking that Jeff Jones was currently his investor, and said, "I'll take you to meet him after the premiere."

At this moment on the stage, Chen Fei was leading the main characters in talking about the filming process of this movie, as well as the various subsequent linkages and arrangements.

After the movie is released, many games with the same name will be released, and the "Ready Player One Fantasy Theme Park" that is currently spread all over the world will also launch corresponding joint activities...

The emergence of these news undoubtedly triggered cheers from the guests on the scene again.

Accompanied by warm applause, the premiere officially kicked off.

The lights in the theater gradually dimmed and the opening scene of the movie appeared on the big screen.

The audience and guests fell silent instantly, immersed in the fantasy world created by the movie.

The story of the movie "Ready Player One" is set in 2045, when the real world is plagued by environmental pollution and resource shortages, and people's lives are full of helplessness and despair.

However, a virtual game called "Oasis" has opened a door to hope and dreams for people!

In "Oasis", people can transform into their favorite characters and explore, adventure and create to their heart's content.

Here are bustling cities, mysterious forests, ancient castles, as well as all kinds of fantastic creatures and mysterious treasures.

The founder of the game, James Halliday, left a shocking secret before his death - he hid an Easter egg in the "Oasis". As long as you find this Easter egg, you can inherit all his wealth and control of the "Oasis".

As soon as the news came out, it immediately attracted countless players to become Easter egg hunters. They fought day and night to try to solve the mystery and win the final victory.

The film's graphics are exquisite and its special effects are top-notch.

From the colorful scenes in the "Oasis" to the thrilling adventure scenes, every detail is handled just right.

And when various classic game characters and movie scenes appeared in the movie, the audience couldn't help but exclaim and cheer.

Those game characters that grew up with them, such as Chun-Li in Street Fighter, Tracer in Overwatch, the DeLorean in Back to the Future, the Millennium Falcon in Star Wars, etc., all appeared on the big screen one by one, bringing back many memories for the audience.

The clever integration of these Easter eggs is not only a tribute to classic culture, but also brings a visual feast full of surprises to the audience!

At the same time, the film's soundtrack also adds a lot to it.

The music carefully composed by Aaron Silvestri blends perfectly with the film's images.

In the thrilling adventure scenes, the music has a tight rhythm and is full of power, which speeds up the audience's heartbeats; while in the warm and touching emotional scenes, the music becomes soothing and melodious, touching the heartstrings, allowing the audience to deeply feel the sincere emotions between the characters.

In addition, the film also interspersed with many classic 80s songs, such as "I Wanna Be Your Lover" and "Everybody Wants to Rule The World". These familiar melodies not only add a nostalgic atmosphere to the film, but also make the audience seem to have returned to that era full of passion and dreams while watching the film.

As the movie progresses, the audience's emotions are also closely tied to the plot.

They worried about the difficulties Wade and his friends encountered in their adventures and cheered for every victory they achieved.

When the movie reached its climax and Wade and his friends had the final battle with the evil force IOI, the atmosphere on the scene reached its peak!
Ultraman Tiga fights Mecha Gatania, Gundam fights Mecha Godzilla, and characters familiar to movie fans around the world, such as Sun Wukong and Nezha from Eastern mythology, appear one after another and fight against the Yaksha demons from the Western hell...

At this moment, the audience clenched their fists, held their breath, and stared at the big screen intently, as if they were also in the fierce battlefield!

Finally, when the protagonists won, the movie ended amid cheers.

The audience and movie fans all stood up and burst into thunderous applause and cheers!
"Awesome! This movie is so cool!"

"Haha, I like the horror movie segment the most. There are so many classic horror movie clips from Walton Pictures. It's so fun."

"As expected of a copyright giant! Oh my god, there must be thousands of Easter eggs in the film, right?" "This movie can only be made by Walton Pictures, and the director must be Chen Fei. No one else is worthy of being the director!"

"Why wait until Christmas to release it? I want to watch it a second time now. Can you play it again?"

Amid heated discussions at the scene, Chen Fei and the leading actors walked onto the stage and interacted and communicated with the audience.

He specifically shared his original intention for making this film and some interesting stories during the creative process:
“When I first read the novel Ready Player One, I was deeply attracted by its rich imagination and unique description of the future world.

I hope that through this film, fans can feel the charm of science fiction movies, and at the same time, it can trigger their thinking about real life and the virtual world, because our future is destined to be inseparable from the virtual world..."

Afterwards, the other leading actors also shared their unforgettable experiences during the filming process and their understanding of the characters.

Leo even said: "This seems to be my first time playing a villain, and I feel it's pretty good. I hope everyone can give me a good review and encouragement, and don't scold me!"

There were bursts of laughter at the scene.

Later, during the media interview, many people pointed their cameras at Chen Fei and asked curiously, "Fei, there are so many classic game and movie elements in the movie. How did you cleverly combine them together?"

This question was undoubtedly a point of confusion for everyone present, and for a moment everyone cast inquiring glances.

Especially those directors and producers in the circle who were invited could not hide their curiosity.

After thinking for a while, Chen Fei replied: "This is the result of a team's joint efforts. Our screenwriters and art team have done a lot of research and preparation. They have deeply explored the connotation and characteristics of each classic element, and then organically integrated them into the plot and scenes of the movie.

It just so happens that I still have a lot of wonderful scenes and images in my head, and many of the movie Easter eggs were created by me, so it was relatively easy to integrate them..."

As soon as these words came out, many colleagues at the scene couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Even if they wanted to learn this, they couldn't!
Chen Fei has a lot of experience and he wrote many scripts himself, so he naturally has unique insights and methods when it comes to integration.

But who else has this ability and level?
Afterwards, media reporters interviewed the guests on the scene.

Spielberg expressed his amazement: "Ready Player One is definitely a landmark science fiction film! It not only reaches a new height in visual effects and plot, but also achieves great success in cultural connotation and emotional resonance!"

James Cameron said: "This film will definitely become another classic in director Chen Fei's career, and will also open up a new path for the development of science fiction films."

Nolan said with a complicated look in his eyes: "This movie made me feel the charm of science fiction, and also made me rethink the relationship between real life and the virtual world. One day in the future, maybe we can really realize the scenes and pictures that appear in the movie."

Near noon, the premiere finally came to an end and a grand party began.

When James Wan brought Jeff Jones to Chen Fei, he smiled and shook hands with him: "Mr. Jones, I hope that under your leadership, DC can get better and better."

When these words came out, Jeff Jones was stunned.

He originally thought that Chen Fei would give him instructions or even ridicule him in a condescending manner, but he did not expect that the other party would choose a gentle attitude that he had not expected.

"Fei, you don't seem to be as..."

For a moment, Jeff Jones didn't know how to describe what was in his mind.

Fade Chen smiled, knowing exactly what he was thinking.

"Mr. Jones, you may have some misunderstandings about me. I have never deliberately targeted DC. I am just returning the favor for what others have done to me.

I never ask about normal competition, but if someone uses some irregular means, then I guarantee that he will regret it. "

After expressing his attitude and saying hello to James Wan, Fade Chen turned around and left.

He had no opinion about Jeff Jones or the entire DC, and he even didn't take the other party seriously at all.

But if the other party suddenly jumps out and swears, then he has to say sorry to the other party.

Our ancestors said: "It is impolite not to return the favor."

When the time comes, just return it double!
……

After a night, it was the 18th.
Although the premiere of "Ready Player One" has ended, the related publicity, promotion, and preview activities have not stopped.

As time went by, word of mouth about the film spread like a tide on social media.

Audiences have been sharing their viewing experiences on major social platforms, and there has been endless praise for the film!
"Everyone, it's no exaggeration to say that this is the most exciting and interesting movie I have ever seen. Director Chen Fei is so cool!"

“Every detail in the movie is full of surprises, and those Easter eggs are a perfect tribute to our childhood memories!”

“Ready Player One has tons of gags, stunning visuals, a great 80s playlist, charm, heart, humor, and a brilliant score by Aaron Silvester.”

"Oh my God! I don't have words to describe how spectacular this movie is! I never thought I would love this movie before, but after watching it, I loved it so much!"

"I will definitely go to the theater again on Christmas Day. The high quality of this movie is worth watching a second or even a third time!"

And all these situations that happened in Hollywood, without exception, were spread back to the country.

At the same time, the news that "Ready Player One" will hold its Asian premiere at the "Ready Player One Fantasy Theme Park" in Shanghai on December 12 also spread.

Different from the cheering fans in China, Feng Xiaogang and Chen Kaige suddenly became nervous.

Early in the morning, Feng Xiaogang was still happy about the fact that the box office of "Youth" exceeded 2.86 million in the first three days of the weekend, but when he saw the large number of press releases and news about "Ready Player One" suddenly appearing on the Internet, he suddenly became nervous.

Originally, the screening data of "Youth" was not particularly high due to the influence of "Dying to Survive". If "Legend of the Demon Cat" and "Ready Player One" were to be released, there would definitely be another plunge.

He worked so hard to make such a "high-quality masterpiece". If it was affected, wouldn't it be troublesome?

For a while, he was so worried that he couldn't even take a nap, and hurriedly dragged the rest of the actors except Huang Xuan to promote the event.

As for his male lead, he has already been called away by "Legend of the Demon Cat".

Although he was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to lose his temper in front of Brother Chen Kai and could only sulk on his own.

On the other side, Brother Chen Kai was also overwhelmed as he read the news online!
Compared with Feng Xiaogang, the pressure he has to face is undoubtedly greater.

After all, the release dates of "Legend of the Demon Cat" and "Ready Player One" are only two days apart, which means that the two sides are going to fight head-on!
And what bothered him the most was that after a few days of promotion, he suddenly found that his movie did not seem to be very popular?
"Will the problem of "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" not happen again?"

When he thought of this, he couldn't even eat. After all, the movie premiere was tomorrow and it would be officially released in theaters and the "bayonet fight" would begin soon.

In comparison, Yuan Heping and Xu Ke didn't have so many ideas.

After all, "Qi Men Dun Jia" is already useless...

On the fourth day of the movie's release, except for a brief boost on Saturday and Sunday, when it reached over 4 million...it has now dropped to over 6000 million.

This also earned "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia" the title of the year's first "bad blockbuster".

The Hong Kong circle is even more silent...
