This top guy only treats celebrities as his job

Chapter 566 Regret, Carry the Box Office

Yuan Yu's mood was indeed quite complicated.

Do you want to say that he regrets falling out with Wei Lu?
He absolutely has no regrets, because he thinks Wei Lu is so unkind. He should have been the absolutely upright male lead, but he ended up being the villain.

This is not in line with Yuan Yu's development.

Of course, Yuan Yu’s agent actually advised Yuan Yu that he would need a certain degree of transformation in the future anyway, so it would be okay for him to play a villain.

But Yuan Yu refused.

He thinks that he is far from taking over Chen Sheng's job, and his action movies have not yet reached the point where one movie can earn over 20 billion yuan. How can he talk about transformation at this time? ?

Yuan Yu believes that no matter what, he has to have a movie with a box office of over 20 billion before he can talk about transformation.

But watching the trailer of "Hot Street", Yuan Yu felt a little complicated.

People are like this. If the thing you give up is not good, then you will be very happy, but if the thing you give up becomes better and better, then you will definitely be unhappy.

Yuan Yu is currently in a bit of this situation.

Today he and Mr. Chen came to attend the premiere of "Hot Street". To be honest, they were just deceiving the public by coming to support Lin Xing. What they really wanted to see was what the movie "Hot Street" was like.

Because this is related to the promotion of the upcoming movie "Hotwire" and the degree of importance given to "The Untold Story".

Then, when "Hot Street" started, Yuan Yu felt more and more complicated the more he watched.

The whole movie really changed from a story of two heroes working together to solve a case to a fight between two heroes.

But the whole movie is actually about how Awen, played by Lin Xing, went from being a rising star in the police force to a gangster.

The movie begins with the gangster Awen killing the drug dealer directly, and not only that, he also kills all the police officers who came to the scene.

This includes Awen’s former boss.

"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. Don't worry, none of you can escape."

Awen said in a sharp tone.

Then, through the memories of another protagonist, Xue Ping, everyone knows how Awen became like this step by step.

And in this memory, Awen is still the protagonist.

In memories, Awen was a sunny and cheerful big boy. His wish at that time was to have no bandits in the world. He was a master at solving crimes, and he was even about to be promoted.

However, in the end, when they were handling a case, their team was dealt with for lynching, and the senior who had promised to protect them before the death made them take the blame.

It can be said that Awen’s group was abandoned, and Xue Li did not give them certification either.

Apart from the memories of the protagonist played by Xue Wen, the memories from Lin Xing's perspective are more tragic.

You have to know that Awen's team was once the rising stars of the police force. They made many arrests and even had their lives hanging by a thread several times while catching drug dealers.

Do you know how many desperadoes they have offended?

Even many of the desperate criminals in prison were captured by them.

Because of this, it can be said that they suffered inhuman treatment in prison.

No one rescued them.

Yes.

Because they were pushed out by the top leaders to take the blame, the top leaders will not protect them. Some even hope that they die in prison.

There were a total of five members in Awen's group. Not only were they tortured in various ways in prison, but the scars on Awen's face were left in prison. Not only that, he was almost suffocated to death several times when he was falling asleep.

As for the monk in the group, he was even more miserable. He was even sodomized and became impotent.

Not to mention the other three, they were all bullied badly.

It is precisely because of this that Awen's revenge after being released from prison seemed so smooth.

"I have tried to be a good person, a good police officer, and I have tried to maintain public order and respect the law. But when I was wronged, did anyone ever say a word for me? Did the law ever give me fairness?"

"Okay, you respect the law, don't you? So now can the law convict me of a crime? If not, what can you use to arrest me?"

……

"Didn't you ask me before if I hated my ex-girlfriend? I told you I didn't hate her because I found her after I got out of prison. She was already married. I sent her and her husband to the crematorium because she once said that if she betrayed me, she would go to the crematorium. I just fulfilled her wish."

"No, I'm not crazy. It's this world that's crazy. Murder, arson, gold belts, those high-level people, who all talk about morality and justice, and are full of thieves and prostitutes. I was once brainwashed by them and believed that they would uphold justice. Now I have to uphold justice on my own."

……

In a movie that's less than two hours long, almost all of the highlights are on Lin Xing.

Even though they seem to be two heroes, Lin Xing is the only protagonist, and he completely suppresses Xue Li.

Especially Yuan Yu suddenly felt that Awen didn't look like a villain.

It’s just like in ancient times, where the officials forced the people to rebel.

Awen looks a little too miserable.

In fact, this is what Wei Lu told Yuan Yu when she was revising the script, but Yuan Yu didn’t believe it at all. He even felt that a villain is still a villain no matter what.

But today, after watching Lin Xing's performance in "Hot Street", Yuan Yu suddenly felt that he could accept it.

The ones who were truly surprised or astonished at the premiere were the film critics. Even though they already knew from the trailer that Lin Xing's character was a villain and that he was capable of acting, they were still shocked.

The villain character is so charming.

Especially when the character Lin Xing was shot to death at the end, he said: "One wrong step, all wrong." It really makes people feel emotional.

This character is a tragic figure, but he crushes all the thugs in suits, because in less than 2 hours of the movie, the transformation of Awen from a rising star in the police force to a desperate gangster is fully shown.

In previous movies or TV shows, villains were often like tools, basically pure evil.

Even Zhou Bo in "Sweeping Dark Waves" basically believes that human nature is evil.

But Awen is different. He is a character who turns from white to black, and the audience can really empathize with him.

For this reason, many film critics are now ready to go back and write a long review.

This May Day period is quite lively.

Previously, many people were worried about whether "Hot Street" would be of poor quality or would fall behind.

After all, the industry is not optimistic about "Hot Street". After Yuan Yu's table-turning incident and the crew's suspension, how could many people be optimistic about it?

But now everyone feels quite surprised after watching it.

Lin Xing is indeed Lin Xing, and Wei Lu is indeed Explosive Lu. There was no star speech at this premiere. Originally, Chen Sheng was ready to speak, and he was waiting to stand up and say a few words.

But no one expected that this segment was not prepared at all at the premiere.

"Yes, I think the movie "Street Explosion" is very strong and good."

Chen said with a smile in response to the media interview: "I am feeling a little bit stressed now."

Apart from Mr. Chen, An Yifeng and Yuan Yu did not accept interviews.

An Yifeng didn't want to listen to the media's nonsense, and Yuan Yu wanted to go back and calm down.

This time, all the kung fu actors in the movie "Fire Pursuit" are extras except Chen Sheng and Liu Yunxia.

I mentioned before that Yuan Yu’s two scenes were re-shot by the crew later in the film.

In other words, Yuan Yu is just a temporary guest appearance in "Fire Pursuit" and he doesn't even need to cooperate with the promotion.

It can be said that the good box office performance of the movie "Fire Pursuit" has little to do with Lai and Yuan Yu.

Who would let a guest actor carry the box office?
Yuan Yu originally chose to make a guest appearance in "Fire Pursuit" simply because he was feeling unhappy and wanted to relax a little.

But now it’s quite embarrassing.

And it's very embarrassing.

Yuan Yu didn’t expect that “Fire Pursuit” and “Hot Street” would be released at the same time, and he didn’t expect that “Hot Street” looked pretty good?
Yes.

Yuan Yu is not without aesthetic taste. He still understands movies. After watching "Hot Street", Yuan Yu thinks that the most outstanding character is really Lin Xing.

People always compare.

Don’t be fooled by how magnanimous Yuan Yu was in the beginning, he even came to attend the premiere of "Hot Street" today, but in fact, that’s because he felt that "Hot Street" was bound to fail.

At this time, Yuan Yu must of course be more magnanimous.

But it’s different now.

"Hot Street" might actually become a big hit. If it really becomes a big hit, wouldn't Yuan Yu become a joke?
"How about it??"

On the way back, Yuan Yu received a call from her agent. After hearing the agent ask how it was, Yuan Yu said angrily, "It's fine."

Upon hearing this, the agent's face changed slightly: "You mean "Hot Street" is good?"

Yuan Yu said unhappily: "What else?"

At this time, the agent really wanted to say, "It would have been great if you had listened to me earlier." However, he suppressed his anger and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. On the one hand, this is Wei Lu's movie after all, so the quality will definitely be good. On the other hand, Lin Xing is still very strong, so there's no need for us to think too much..."

Yuan Yu knew what his agent meant, but when he thought about the countless people who would tease and ridicule him, he felt hurt.

Having worked together for more than ten years, the agent certainly knows Yuan Yu’s true thoughts. Basically, every time she wants something, she wants it all.

"It's okay, actually. We haven't really mocked "Hot Street" and you even went to the premiere, so Wei Lu can't say anything to you next. So what does a few criticisms from the public mean?"

The agent even said: "In fact, I think the one who is really worried now is not us, but "Hotline"."

This is true.

Compared to the rave reviews that "Hotwire" received after its premiere, "Hotspot" can be said to be even better.

Many film critics have made various comments on "Breaking Bad". Without spoiling the plot, everyone thinks that "Breaking Bad" is very strong.

At the same time, some people asked how it compared to "The Wire", and these critics said: "Both are excellent, but I am more optimistic about "The Wire"."

Lao Zhong did not attend the premiere of "Hot Street" today. Instead, she went to see "The Wire" in the evening.

After all, today is not only the premiere of "The Untold Story", but also the preview of "The Wire".

After watching "Fire Pursuit", Lao Zhong became more certain that what Lin Xing said must be more tactful.

This "Fire Pursuit" is really a movie that makes people feel very tired while feeling that the director and actors have tried very hard, but the plot can be said to be a stupid movie.

“I think Kang Hai should not come out again, he has completely left the film market.

And Mr. Chen, please stop fighting. I think it's a bit of elder abuse if you keep acting in action movies. You should retire at over 70.

An Yifeng is very good in fighting scenes, but I sincerely think your mother is a burden to you.

……

Good guy.

No one expected that Lao Zhong did not write a film review. Instead, she wrote a heart-wrenching passage.

Of course, none of these sentences are written as film reviews, but every sentence is telling the audience that "The Wire" is a terrible movie.

In the next few days, because "Fire Pursuit" was only a preview after all, on the one hand, the film marketing was still able to completely control the negative reviews, and on the other hand, An Yifeng's traffic was still huge, and her fans still helped her to control some of the reviews.

As for "Hot Street", various promotions have also begun in the past few days.

Because the premiere received rave reviews, many people were looking forward to whether "Hot Street" could also be screened, but it still chose to open on the afternoon of April 4th.

"To be honest, I don't believe what the film critics say, but I believe Lin Xing, so I'm going to watch this movie today no matter what."

"That's right, Lin Xing is the villain and I really want to see how he will act."

"I watched 'The Wire' and I didn't think it was good. Of course, the box office was okay in the first few days of screening, but it was just okay."

"'FireWire' really looks a bit too tiring, and there are too many fighting scenes, which has caused some aesthetic fatigue."

……

23、24、25、26这4天的电影,《火线追击》拿下了2000万的票房,也确实算是点映的很不错了。

However, the reputation has been temporarily covered up for now, but there are still many people who think it is not good.

At the same time, because "Hot Street" will officially be released today on the afternoon of the 27th, many people are thinking about supporting it.

That is to say, although the 27th is a Thursday, many people still choose to come and show their support.

This does not come from the critics' praise for the movie, but rather from the audience's trust in Lin Xing.

To put it simply, Lin Xing is currently an actor who carries the box office.
