This top guy only treats celebrities as his job

"The Vanishing Bride" is really not a romance film.

This should be a suspense film, or a horror film.

Lin Xing plays a scumbag in "The Vanishing Bride". Because he is short of money, he deliberately approaches a young lady and then marries her.

Because he owed a lot of gambling debts, he needed this young lady to help him pay off his debts.

Of course, everyone understood it in the final reversal. The scumbag played by Lin Xing had been scheming step by step to get close to the young lady from the very beginning.

Then, after the marriage, the eldest daughter had already discovered that he owed money for gambling, but he knelt down and chopped off two of his fingers and said that he would live a good life in the future.

The young lady softened her heart and agreed.

During the next period of time, Lin Xing was indeed better and seemed to have really quit smoking, but what he actually wanted to do was travel to a certain country and kill the young lady so that he could inherit the estate.

……

Basically, from the plot point of view, Lin Xing is a scumbag.

But this was only reversed at the end.

Because from the beginning Lin Xing wanted to find his wife. He thought his wife was missing and he wanted to find her.

At the same time, the lawyer played by Lin Miaoyin helps her.

But in fact, the lawyer played by Lin Miaoyin is the eldest lady’s best friend, and she just wants revenge, so she puts on a big show.

It's a play within a play.

All of this is to make Lin Xing, the scumbag, tell the truth.

Of course, there is actually another layer to the final reversal.

The eldest lady was thinking of telling Lin Xing about her wedding anniversary when they were abroad, but Lin Xing gave up on her.

In short, "The Vanishing Bride" is all about emotions, and you will be completely immersed in the emotions while watching the entire movie.

After watching this movie, everyone thinks that it is better to stay safe by not getting married or having children.

However, this movie not only has bad men, but also bad women.

Just like the other supporting role played a scumbag who got rid of her husband just to inherit his estate.

Lin Xing knew this scumbag girl and only after knowing all these operations did he prepare to do this.

Therefore, "The Vanishing Bride" does not deliberately create oppositions, because there are both scumbag men and scumbag women, and they are all fucking worthless.

It's just that Lin Xing never wanted to create this kind of emotion when promoting his films, or even like when you make a fraud movie and then keep marketing it with things like cutting kidneys.

Lin Xing believes that this will easily change the flavor of the movie and may even be extremely detrimental to the film market.

To this end, what he is basically doing now is honest publicity.

However, even if Lin Xing did not promote it like this, it would not change anything, because more and more people are discussing it online now.

Because now the public opinion is extremely fierce.

After watching this movie, everyone started to curse from their own perspectives.

"I think this is a scam marketing by Lin Xing, so can I get my money back?"

"What rubbish? I didn't expect Lin Xing to start acting in this kind of rubbish. Lin Xing has finally started to break into the race of seductive women. Does Lin Xing not even look at those fairies who make men pay for their gold coins?"

"This movie is so degrading to women. I really think Lin Xing has always looked down on women, and this movie is even more so. And scumbag women? How many scumbag women are there? They are all scumbag men."

……

There was quite a lot of discussion about the movie, and then Lao Zhong finally started writing a review.

Moreover, Lao Zhong’s title is “The Vanishing Bride: A suspense masterpiece that transcends gender opposition.”

She first said that in the current era of increasingly polarized public opinion, film and television works are often caught up in the controversial vortex of "gender confrontation".

This is actually quite normal.

Because many movies deliberately exaggerate conflicts and create confrontations in order to cater to market sentiment, even at the expense of story logic and character creation.

But this is not the case in the movie "The Vanishing Bride".

“It doesn’t try to please a certain group or belittle a certain gender, but returns to the essence of film.

Why are many movies bad?

Because they always forget the essence of movies.

That is [tell a good story, create vivid characters, and convey real emotions. ].

Next, Lao Zhong started playing "The Vanishing Bride" from several points one by one.

After all, there is no need to worry about spoilers now.

The most commendable thing about "The Vanishing Bride" is its progressive reversal structure. The film is based on the theme of "looking for the missing bride". The first half seems to be a heartwarming story of a devoted husband desperately searching for his wife, but as the plot progresses, the audience gradually discovers that there is a deeper conspiracy behind it. The male protagonist played by Lin Xing is not an affectionate husband, but a gambler who carefully planned a scam. His purpose of approaching the rich girl was not pure from the beginning.

Lin Miaoyin, who plays the lawyer's best friend, uses a carefully designed "play within a play" to let the male protagonist gradually expose his crimes. This narrative technique not only enhances the sense of suspense, but also makes the audience's emotions fluctuate as the truth is revealed. The movie does not deliberately exaggerate "all men are evil" or "all women are innocent", but through a solid script and careful logic, each character's behavior has a reasonable motivation. 】

……

Regarding this drama review, Lao Zhong actually first talked about the rationality of the plot.

Then she said, "In order to create conflict, many suspense films often make the villains "bad for no reason" or make the heroes "too perfect to be real."

But "The Vanishing Bride" creates three-dimensional and real characters:

The male protagonist played by Lin Xing is not a simple villain. His downfall stems from gambling addiction and greed, but he has also struggled, and even at a certain moment, the audience will mistakenly think that he has really repented. This complexity makes the character more convincing, rather than a stereotyped "scumbag symbol".

The best friend lawyer played by Lin Miaoyin is not a "messenger of justice" in the traditional sense. Her means of revenge also wander on the edge of the law and even have a certain degree of paranoia. Her motive is not purely for justice, but mixed with guilt for her friend and anger at the murderer.

Other supporting characters in the movie, such as the "bad woman" who also uses marriage to make money, also show another side of human nature - greed knows no gender, and evil deeds have nothing to do with men and women.

This balanced perspective allows the film to avoid falling into the quagmire of gender confrontation and instead focus on human weaknesses and choices.”

Finally, Lao Zhong talked about the film’s rare restrained expression of social issues.

That is not to incite emotions, just present the reality
In fact, this is too difficult.

In recent years, many film and television works like to use "gender conflict" as a marketing gimmick, and even deliberately create opposition to gain traffic. How many movies have done this before? ?

They don't care about public opinion, and they will even tear it apart endlessly.

Some movies even go so far as to say "being a man is the original sin".

Not only that, there are also some movies that start with comments like "All men should watch this movie", "I'm sorry for being born a man", "This society is too difficult for women", "I'm a man and I've reaped all the benefits of society", etc.

It's just a fucking movie, why are you talking nonsense? ?
Again, who has it easy?
There are scumbags among men, but there are no scumbags among women? ?

Therefore, many movies discuss various social issues and try every possible means to increase the box office.

But "The Vanishing Bride" does not do that. It explores the collapse of trust, the corrosion of desire, and the boundaries of the law, rather than simply pointing the finger at a certain gender.

Lao Zhong believes that "in the movie, whether it is the male protagonist's marriage fraud or the supporting character's murder for money, they are all individual behaviors, not the "original sin" of a certain gender. The film does not make the audience hate a certain group, but makes the audience think: In the face of interests, how will human nature choose? When trust is betrayed, how should we face it?"

……

In short, Lao Zhong's lengthy review of the drama of nearly 1 words won a lot of likes.

"Old Zhong is right. Damn, many movies nowadays really only focus on gender issues. This "The Vanishing Bride" is definitely not like that."

"To be honest, I was also worried about this kind of movie, but I didn't expect it to be like this at all. This movie is just about telling a story."

"To be honest, the emotional rendering of this movie is indeed strong. No wonder Lin Xing said that the movie is full of emotions."

……

"To be honest, I think Lao Zhong is really awesome because he guessed it completely."

"Yes, Lao Zhong had guessed it before. This plot does have some twists and turns."

……

In response to some people bragging about their own words, Lao Zhong replied: "Actually, I don't think I guessed it, or I only guessed half of it.

To be frank, I only guessed one-third of it. I didn't expect Lin Xing's acting skills to break through again in this movie. He played a gambler who was affectionate on the surface but calculating on the inside to the fullest, especially the several emotional outbursts. It really makes people feel disgusted with his behavior, but also feel that he is pathetic. There must be something hateful about a pitiful person. "

……

Old Zhong never forgets that he is a Lin fan.

Of course, she didn't just praise Lin Xing, she felt that she was really surprised by Lin Miaoyin.

Because Lin Miaoyin's performance in the movie is also outstanding, the anger and pain beneath her calm appearance make people empathize with her motives for revenge.

There are quite a lot of discussions about these.

Even the Sixth Princess did not forget to report it.

“The Vanishing Bride is a thriller that truly respects its audience.

The success of "The Vanishing Bride" lies in the fact that it did not sacrifice the authenticity of the story to cater to the market, nor did it deliberately incite opposition to create topics. It is just a solid suspense film, using exquisite narrative, complex characters and restrained expression to allow the audience to experience the ups and downs of emotions during the viewing process and think about deeper issues after the end.

In an environment where film and television works are increasingly inclined to "stand in line" rather than "tell stories", "The Vanishing Bride" is undoubtedly a breath of fresh air. It proves that a good movie does not need to rely on opposition to attract attention, but only needs to tell a good story sincerely.

……

This is what the Sixth Princess means to others.

So all we have to do is tell a good story, okay?
Of course, today, the topic of discussion brought about by "The Vanishing Bride" on the first day was actually very big.

As a film critic, you discuss a lot, especially about human nature and desire.

Well-known film critic "Movie Rhapsody" published a long article on social media, analyzing the male protagonist played by Lin Xing from a psychological perspective: "The tragedy of this character is that he is not born evil, but an ordinary person who is swallowed up step by step by desire. The film shows his process from luck to sinking through details - initially just a small gamble, then borrowing usury to make up for the loss, and finally seeing marriage as a bargaining chip for a comeback. This 'slippery slope effect' is of great warning significance, reminding the audience to be vigilant against every seemingly small evil thought in life."

However, some people do not agree with this view of [Movie Rhapsody].

"What the hell? I think this guy is a bad guy."

"Yeah, damn, he is a villain, but he just keeps acting it out."

"Human nature is evil. I think many movies nowadays always like to find excuses for them."

"Yes, this is what I hate too. Damn it, I still like the pure villain before Lin Xing."

……

Of course, when many people were discussing it, "The Vanishing Bride" also became popular.

Because many people have started heated discussions about the film's "play within a play" setting.

Even the famous lawyer Chen Yan wrote in his column: "The lawyer played by Lin Miaoyin forced a confession by lynching. Although it satisfied the audience's pleasure of revenge, this behavior is obviously illegal in reality. The film cleverly throws the conflict between morality and law to the audience: when justice cannot be achieved through the system, does the individual have the right to transcend the rules? This kind of speculation is the scarce depth of domestic suspense films.

Moreover, the creators of this film are really smart. If this happened in China, it would definitely not work. But it is different when it is set abroad. After all, everyone knows what kind of people there are.”

What Chen Yan said is indeed on point.

Many people think that it is a good idea to set the suspense film overseas, because it can avoid a lot of trouble.

Of course, many people think that this damn movie "The Vanishing Bride" will definitely have a good box office, no wonder the first-day screening schedule was so strong.

Many people think that the box office of "The Vanishing Bride" will continue to explode.

Is Lin Xing going to start another suspense film track? ?

Everyone is now guessing how much Lin Xing’s box office can reach.

At the same time, Lin Xing also started a roadshow with the main creators.

Because it was the first day, we were in the capital and almost everyone was there.

"That's something I've naturally thought of. I believe everyone's level of appreciation is acceptable."

Lin Xing said with a smile: "I have said it before, I always believe in everyone's appreciation level."

“I think differently from everyone else.”

When Lin Xing was asked what he thought of the scumbag he played, Lin Xing shook his head slightly.
