Chapter 431 [114] Hot!
Thursday, June 2004, 12.

Stephen Chow's much-anticipated new film "Kung Fu" finally had its official premiere in China.

"The Star Lord movie is released!"

"I know, but I have to go see it on the weekend!"

"Damn it, I went shopping yesterday, but I couldn't even get a ticket for today. It won't be until Sunday morning at the earliest!"

"No way? Are you so nervous?"

On the subway in the imperial capital, two white-collar colleagues were chatting.

"Yes, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, the day after tomorrow is Christmas, and then the weekend, I must be nervous!"

"Damn it, I'll go to the cinema near my house soon!"

"I guess if I buy it today, I might not be able to get it on Sunday!"

"After all, this is the first movie released in Mainland China, so I definitely have to support it!"

Although there is no popular meme about "owing Stephen Chow a movie ticket" yet, there are many domestic fans who like Stephen Chow's movies.

"I see that Chen Yu is also starring. I can't imagine what it would be like for him to play a comedy!"

"Haha, I'm looking forward to it too!"

"..."

This kind of chat happens in many first-tier cities across the country. Basically, viewers who have watched Zhou Xingchi's movies are very curious about his new film.

……

6 p.m., Xindong’an Cinema, Wangfujing, Imperial Capital.

A couple walked into the cinema hand in hand. Film critic Guan Lin ran over panting. He rushed here right after get off work. As soon as the pre-sale of movie tickets for "Kung Fu" opened, he bought them as soon as possible. .

"Huchi~~Huchi~~"

Guan Lin stood there holding his knees and panting. He was really out of breath and almost missed him. Fortunately, he ran all the way.

"What's wrong?"

A female voice came to her ears. Of course, she was not talking to Guan Lin, but her boyfriend.

"There are no more tickets. We have until Monday afternoon. Do you want to buy one?"

The boy said to his girlfriend, who suddenly said helplessly: "I told you a long time ago, it is difficult to get tickets for Chen Yu. I couldn't buy a ticket for "House of Flying Daggers" during the week before it was released!"

"Then do you know if you want to tell me?"

His boyfriend said a little depressed, and the girl chuckled: "I'm just testing, do you like me or Liu Yifei?"

"Liu Yifei is the number one female lead!"

"Is Chen Yu still the male lead?"

"Yes, that's why I asked you to buy a ticket. If you like Liu Yifei so much, why don't you donate a ticket?"

"Boring, you think I'm like you!"

"..."

Guan Lin on the side shook his head when he heard this, and walked to the theater entrance to check in tickets with a smile.

In fact, this kind of thing seems normal to him.

Liu Yifei currently has a lot of male fans in China, but she likes her and only buys tickets to support her. Chen Yu is different. He has more fans than Liu Yifei, and female fans currently have a tendency to surpass male fans.

Many male fans just like to watch his movies, so they rush to the cinema to buy tickets; however, female fans now have stronger purchasing power.

Therefore, Guan Lin, a senior film critic, knows his current domestic box office appeal very well.

Although "Kung Fu" is a movie by Mr. Xing, Chen Yu, as the second male lead, also has a power that cannot be ignored. He has counted this on the Internet in the past few days; more than 2000 people want to watch Mr. Xing's movie. More than 900 people wanted to see Chen Yu.

As for Chen Yu + Xing Ye, there are more than 5000!
This statistics is not calculated together, but on separate questionnaires.

So "Kung Fu" is really a strong combination.

The box office initially estimated on the Star Forum was to exceed 100 million in the mainland, breaking the box office record of "Shaolin Soccer" in Hong Kong.

At the moment, it may be beyond the speculation of many film critics.

At present, the die-hard film critics gathered across the Star Network immediately rushed to nearby theaters to watch this new film that they had been waiting for for a long time.

Entering Hall 3, Guan Lin looked at the densely packed audience in front of her and couldn't help but sigh. Apart from "House of Flying Daggers", this is the second such popular film this year; There were several long queues.

Guan Lin found his seat in the middle row and sat down. He held a pen in one hand and opened a notebook with the other to perform some of his most professional operations as a film critic.

Many spectators nearby felt strange, but did not bother them.

Time passed by, and when the movie was about to start, the entire Hall 3 was already full of people.

The seats were packed and the first row was sold out.

"This movie is completely worthy of "House of Flying Daggers"!"

Looking at such an attendance rate, Guan Lin was still a little shocked; Mainland blockbusters were actually more popular than Hollywood blockbusters; before, he had only seen such attendance rates when Hollywood blockbusters were released.

And the popularity can't be compared to what it is now, it's still somewhat lacking, except for "Titanic".

This is definitely an improvement for Chinese films.

The key ones, "House of Flying Daggers" and "Kung Fu", both starred Chen Yu, his favorite actor.

"If this movie is to be a big hit in the North American market, then Chen Yu Hollywood can really gain a foothold!"

While Guan Lin was thinking, the lights in the theater suddenly dimmed.

The familiar dragon logo jumped out, and "Kung Fu" officially kicked off.

"Hahaha!"

"This is actually Chen Yu?"

"The boss of the Ax Gang, he actually played a villain?"

"Why is his dancing so funny?"

"..." Listening to the laughter that came from time to time around him, Chen Yu was basically in control of the entire movie at the beginning; Xingye's star boy really had no sense of presence at the beginning of the movie.

"Contrast, magic!"

"Cruel and ruthless..."

In many seemingly funny scenes, Guan Lin didn't laugh, and even felt a little cold.

He wrote quickly in his notebook.

It is through these seemingly funny details that Zhou Xingchi reveals a murderous, drug-addicted bastard who has done all kinds of bad things.

He is simply evil and lawless. Under Chen Yu's seemingly crazy appearance, he performs the viciousness and viciousness of a sick boss... He turns around faster than turning the page in a book, and his capricious personality is particularly erratic.

"The core of comedy is indeed tragedy!"

Guan Lin looked at Chen Yu who finally became normal. That was when the three masters really forced him to use his killing move.

At this time, he was no longer funny, but showed his truest nature.

He is such a crazy lunatic.

"What a beautiful fight!"

"Sure enough, besides acting, Chen Yu's fighting scenes are also a highlight. 1+1 is totally greater than 2!"

If we want to say who is the protagonist in the first 40 minutes of the film, it must be Chen Yuyan’s boss of the Ax Gang. Even the landlord and tenant are only supporting roles; Mr. Xing’s appearance in this part is more responsible for comedy, like A loser, a clown.

Without Chen Yu's support in the first half, no one in this movie would have been able to support Xing Zai going to the Pig Cage Walled City again.

"Absolutely awesome!"

"One takes care of the first half, and the other takes care of the second half!"

Viewed separately, it seems that Chen Yu dedicated all his highlights to the first 40 minutes, which include dance, acting, action, funny and passionate, and the final one-on-three is even more explosive.

But such a heroic outburst resulted in a more funny side of him.

"It's so awesome, one wave after another, the anticipation is high, the fighting reaches its climax, and the fun is at its most intensive..."

This is the comedy and action scene presented to the audience in the first 40 minutes of Chen Yu's "Kung Fu"; there is no water at all, and both the performance and the fighting are of the highest level!
Then, Brother Chen, the boss of the Ax Gang, was deposed, and the next hour or so was the rise of Xingzi.

Star Master used his never-ending comedy and special effects to fight, saving the most expensive and exciting part of the entire film for the finale.

Xing Zai vs Fire Cloud Evil God!

Tathagata Divine Palm PK Toad Kung Fu!
The fight between the landlord + tenant woman and the Fire Cloud Evil God is equally exciting; there is also Heaven and Earth.

"Liu Yifei, so beautiful!"

As Guan Lin was reading and writing, she couldn't help but hear the sigh of a boy sitting next to her.

He suddenly smiled slightly.

Yes, how can we ignore the only vase in this drama?

Beauty is enough!

That is the most pure, true and beautiful side of Xing Zai's heart. Liu Yifei performed the kind of pure beauty that is like everyone's first love.

"Who can not love Liu Tianxian?"

Guan Lin shook his head. At this moment, he suddenly believed the rumors on the Internet. Chen Yu and Liu Yifei must be dating; as long as they are men, they should not be able to refuse her Wang Yuyan, and the mute girl in "Kung Fu", right?

I heard that her and Chen Yu's "Sword of Immortality" should be released soon.

And "The Condor"...

When she thought of this, Guan Lin suddenly had no reason to look forward to the works of this group of on-screen CPs.

"Oh——"

I heard countless exclamations in my ears. It was the scene where Master Xing used Tathagata Palm as his last move, knocking the buildings of the Pig Cage Walled City out of the palm of his huge hand.

Funds should be burning like crazy here.

When the final star boy and the mute girl stood face to face in the lollipop shop, when the scene suddenly switched to a boy and a girl, and when the homeless man once again took out several martial arts secret books, Guan Lin's heart was filled with confusion for no reason. A moment of sadness.

ended.

The finales of Star Wars movies are always so heartwarming. When I was a kid, I just laughed when I watched them. But when I grew up, I realized that this film was about the lives of the sons of bitches of the masses!
This is just a kung fu dream that the little boy had after being bullied.

There is no Tathagata palm descending from the sky. There are only various ax gangs and ax gang bosses oppressing employees and people.

clap clap clap!
There were applause from countless audiences in the theater, and Guan Lin wiped the moist eyes from the corners of his eyes.

"One of Xingye's best films!"

"Better than any movie he made before!"

"A movie in which Chen Yu subverts his image but has an exceptionally brilliant character!"

Guan Lin actually didn't feel any flaws at all. After watching the whole movie, he just felt it was perfect.

Every character was still so vivid in his mind after it ended; even A-Zhen seemed to be twisting her waist in front of his eyes.

"Ha ha!"

Guan Lin smiled and took a long breath.

He wants to blow this movie up.

Putting away the notebook full of words, Guan Lin walked out of the theater following the flow of people looking back at the big screen reluctantly.

He had to run home non-stop and write the movie review.

There seemed to be countless words in his chest that he wanted to vent.

Wouldn't it be a pity if he didn't write a popular review of a classic film?

Thinking of this, Guan Lin's heart became more and more urgent, and in his mind, the plot of "Kung Fu" washed and flowed over and over again. It did not become more blurry, but became more and more profound.

This is probably the most classic part of this movie, right?
