Chapter 492 Premiere

""The Wheel" failed at the box office, John Woo said the world has changed"

"The 3D action war masterpiece "Wolf Warrior" recently debuted at a nationwide cinema promotion conference. 3D technology will truly restore the cold battlefield, focusing on the harsh war on the Sino-foreign border. Its subject matter is rarely covered in domestic movies, and it has attracted widespread attention in the industry. It is reported that The film is expected to be released in April 2015.”

""One Step Away" is confirmed to have passed the review and received the Dragon Award. The release date remains unchanged. The premiere will be held grandly on December 12."

For "One Step Away", which has been called the "magic film of the year" by the outside world, it has gone from "uncensored" to "can be released normally" in the past week, with twists and turns that outsiders cannot imagine.

After many twists and turns, Jiang Wen's new film "One Step Away" finally officially won the Dragon Award and passed the test in a thrilling manner.

However, because the time was too close to the premiere, the film crew even had to use human courier to deliver the hard drive to ensure that it would open at midnight on the 18th.

Because a movie can only be used as a master if it gets the Dragon Film Award.

Master production takes about 2-3 days depending on the process, and then the copy can be made. About a thousand hard drives can be copied in almost one day.

A large-scale release of a film requires about 3800 copies nationwide, so even if you work overtime 24 hours a day, it will still take a lot of time, and it is estimated to take 1-2 days.

Li Mu said calmly that the premiere time could only be changed to "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" at present, and "One Step Away" cannot be changed. It has gone through many twists and turns, and if it is changed again, the loss will be huge.

"Okay, I'll find someone to handle this matter."

"Hurry up and get dressed up. Let's go get something to eat first, otherwise we won't starve to death at the premiere."

But the warmth of the quilt prevented him from moving.

Li Mu smiled when he saw this, but then he thought of something and communicated with him.

"Hurry, hurry!!!"

"I know, don't rush!!!"

While Li Mu was still trying to wake up, Liu Yifei had already muttered.

Li Mu responded calmly.

The timely approval of "One Step Away" also relieved the e-commerce platform that pre-sold 2 million in box office. If it really cannot be released on time, then major platforms will face a crazy "tide of refunds."

For example, at this moment, Li Mu and Liu Yifei were lying on the bed, refusing to move.

Li Mu still had the foresight. After all, Liu Yifei still had to dress up. If she didn't urge her, she wouldn't know how old she was when she went out.

I don't know how long it took, but the two people who couldn't sleep got up lazily.

"Everyone, sit down and don't move. Chef Lao Jiang is about to take off the pot. The good rice is about to be served with the smell of the pot! from Jiang Wen."

The prime screenings of "One Step Away" in key cities have been sold out in the first week, and the pre-sale box office is expected to exceed 3 million.

Liu Yifei felt as if she had missed a meal in her life.

"Then let's have dinner!"

Li Mu immediately started playing after hearing this.

Bona also knew the situation at "One Step Away" and it went smoothly, so he postponed it for a day.

Li Mu immediately urged.

".Then squint a little longer."

"What's going on? What all the fuss is about."

Li Mu yawned and said nonchalantly, "You can also lose weight by the way. Just eat one meal out of three and get on the scale tomorrow. Then you'll lose weight."

"I'm bewitched and can't move."

"I said, your premiere time conflicts with "Taking Tiger Mountain". You'd better have someone communicate with Bona so that there is no conflict between the two parties."

Li Mu took a look at the time. Very good, it was past twelve noon.

Therefore, except for human flesh express delivery, there is no way to ensure that the movie will be released at midnight on the 18th in various places.

Liu Yifei blinked her confused eyes, "But aren't we going to attend the premiere tonight?"

Li Mu directly hugged Liu Yifei, carried her to the sink, and commanded, "Brush your teeth and wash your face quickly."

Liu Yifei pushed Li Mu, her sweet face still pressed tightly against the quilt, with no intention of getting up.

"It's over!!!"

"Get up first and call me when you have lunch."

One on the 15th and the other on the 16th. These two blockbusters that carry the hope of the Lunar New Year will soon meet the audience.

Jiang Wen nodded. Anyway, the premieres of two blockbuster films cannot collide. This can only be coordinated by "One Step Away". After all, they can't change the time.

"what?"

At this moment, Jiang Wen, who had been silent for a long time, finally became angry and wrote out his inner thoughts on Weibo.

"It's three o'clock in the afternoon!!! We haven't had lunch yet."

But it was Li Mu who had the hard work. He had to attend the premieres of two blockbusters. Although it was only for a short time at night, who didn't want to lie in bed in the winter.

Liu Yifei curled up in Li Mu's arms.

Perhaps it was a mistake, but none of the viewers who had purchased pre-sale tickets had refunds. Instead, many viewers continued to pre-purchase movie tickets for "One Step Away".

"It seems right."

Liu Yifei looked very cold in a black coat.

It’s just the hilarious look that ruins the beauty.

"Are you hungry?" Li Mu asked with a smile.

Liu Yifei nodded repeatedly.

"Why don't you eat something else to fill your stomach first?"

"No, I have to save my stomach and eat delicious food. Today's three meals will become one meal, so I can eat freely!"

"." Li Mu was speechless. He is a master of weight loss theory research.

Although I don’t know where the theory comes from, the law of conservation of energy?
The two were still discussing what to eat in the car.

"Mutton hot pot, I must eat this in winter."

Liu Yifei immediately screamed.

"Okay, okay, aren't you afraid that your makeup will be ruined?"

"Don't be afraid. I brought it out. You can just replenish it after eating. Besides, we are not the protagonists, we just went to watch movies."

".Well, you still have the consciousness."

Li Mu was slightly startled, he was living a very thorough life.

The premiere started at around 6 o'clock. It was already close to o'clock after the two of them finished eating, and they immediately rushed to the Olympic Sports Center without stopping.

"Wow, Director Jiang's event is quite grand."

When the two came to the scene, Liu Yifei couldn't help but sigh.

More than 2000 spectators were already queuing up, and there was also live performance by the China Philharmonic Orchestra. The stage was decorated more like a symphony evening party.

There were some people outside the door, running to ask this person and then that person.

The obvious ones are scalpers.

"Director Jiang, Director Li and the others are here."

the staff reminded.

"Hey, here we go, let's go."

Jiang Wenle happily took Zhou Yun to greet him.

On both sides of the red carpet, Li Mu and Liu Yifei waved gently to greet media friends and fans.

"welcome!!!"

Jiang Wen smiled and said, "Well, this premiere was not in vain. I almost thought it would be useless."

"Well, indeed, it would be a pity if we didn't make it in time."

Li Mu looked at the decorations on both sides and saw that the money spent was indeed extraordinary. However, when he saw the English names on the posters, Li Mu couldn't help but complain.

"Lao Jiang, you said the English name of this song is Gone With The Bullets, but the Chinese name is "One Step Away"."

Li Mu said speechlessly, something felt a little wrong. If the first part of Jiang Wen's Bullet Trilogy was called "Let the Bullets Fly", then it wouldn't matter if the second part was called "Follow the Bullets".

It just happened to be a name that was completely wrong.

“Art, art!!!”

Jiang Wen chuckled.

Li Mu thought it was a bit funny, I'm afraid it was taken casually, and the art was a hammer.

Walking into the venue, Li Mu saw many old acquaintances, including many from the theater side.

As "One Step Away" was designated by the Internet as this year's masterpiece, major theaters naturally wanted to visit the scene in person to observe it carefully.

"Director Li, Yifei, here we come."

Ye Zhu saw Li Mu and said hello repeatedly.

"Mr. Ye, are you so interested?"

"Hey, you have to do the work yourself. By the way, Director Li, the special effects of "Monster Hunt", Tiancai is progressing smoothly."

"I watched it two days ago, and there wasn't much of a problem. I'm just waiting for the remaining reshoots."

Li Mu nodded. When he goes to see the later stages of "La La Land", he usually stops by to check out "Monster Hunt".

The two chatted for a while, and then Bai Yansong came on stage to host tonight's live premiere. The premiere officially began.

Jiang Wen was also very straightforward. Knowing that everyone had been waiting for a long time, he stood up and raised his wine glass and said:
"Everyone is in a hurry to watch the movie. Cheers and don't say anything else!"

A "pass-trial controversy" virtually added a lot of suspense to the release of "One Step Away".

After the screening officially started, when the picture of the golden dragon logo on the green background appeared, it received the warmest applause from the audience.

This applause seems to be the audience's gratitude to Jiang Wen and the entire creative team for their unremitting efforts to ensure that the film is released as scheduled.

The movie begins with Jiang Wen reciting Shakespeare's famous line: "To be or not to be." After that, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is a scene that pays homage to "The Godfather": Jiang Wen is holding a little white rabbit and is being worshiped, and only shows the audience a back view. .

Liu Yifei and Li Mu looked at each other, as if they felt pretty good.

Li Mu smiled slightly, and the following plot made the audience feel better.

At the beginning of the film, Wu Qi narrates the introduction of the story.

The dialogue introduction at the beginning seems very unnatural, just like Shu Qi's voice was added later.

However, this does not affect the shocking effect of the long white legs on the stage. It is completely overwhelming. Every leg is so white and the Gatsby-like sparkling sense of sight, as well as the carefully choreographed songs and dances.

I have to say that Jiang Wen is very good at slapping his legs.

However, the plot begins to leave the audience in a fog.

The main thing is that Jiang Wen tried to fill the audience with a Manchu-Han banquet. However, the singing, dancing and preaching sections that lasted for more than ten minutes had almost no narrative function other than uncanny skills and lotus vomiting.

Apart from that, the most profound impression left by "One Step Away" is that the amount of lines is really too large. Everyone is speaking in a loud voice without even taking a breath. The whole movie is like a train roaring over your eardrums for two hours in a row.

And Jiang Wen especially likes to say when explaining something: "Let me tell you a story."

But after the story was told, instead of understanding his metaphor, the audience became even more confused.
