Chapter 212 Pulp Fiction Premiere

May 5th, 13 o'clock in the morning.

Huang Ze's new work "Pulp Fiction" was unveiled for the first time in an exhibition hall that can accommodate more than a thousand visitors.

Both the audience and filmmakers are full of curiosity about Huang Ze's film.

For French audiences, Huang Zeshang's film "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" which was released in France was quite exciting, and I heard that the box office was also very good.

For filmmakers, they can say that "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" is a bit vulgar, but they have to admit that the techniques used in it are good enough.

It is a textbook work of multi-line narrative and can be included in the textbooks of film schools.

This film called "Pulp Fiction" made them feel that it was very likely a film somewhat similar to "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels".

As everyone expected, two people, a man and a woman, appeared on the screen.

Two very unruly-looking men were discussing this matter, robbery!
The chatterbox-like lines made everyone smile knowingly, "It is indeed in the same vein as Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels!"

After the two discussed for a while, they picked up their guns and started shooting!

That is, after the man and woman at the beginning took out their guns, the picture froze, and the imagined robbery scene did not appear. Instead, the perspective came to a car with two people, one black and one white, one with curly hair and one with long hair.

The two chatted about topics like hemp, women, and fucking from time to time.

Coupled with the black suits that looked like uniforms, most of the audience already knew their identities, which were related to the color black.

The two men, the white one is called Vincent and the black one is called Jules.

After discussing Mia, the woman of the boss Masha, the two walked into a house and carried out a mission: to kill someone.

After several shots, a title appeared: [Vincent and Marsha's Wife].

But what happens next is that Masha bribes a boxer named Butch to have a fake fight.

Then the story of Vincent and Marsha's wife Mia began.

Because of Vincent's negligence, Mia accidentally inhaled his poison and fainted. She was revived after a lot of hassle.

"I don't understand what this is about." An audience member frowned. "Is the robbery scene at the beginning related to the following scenes?"

"And the story of fake fighting?"

“Isn’t that a bit redundant?”

"Will Vincent still develop a romantic relationship with Mia?"

"I don't understand it either." The movie fan sitting next to him touched his chin, "It's very vulgar and boring, but remembering that the beginning of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels was equally incomprehensible, I think I can still stick with it. Although the current plot is not exciting enough, it's still worth watching."

Just when everyone thought the story of the gangster boss Marshal bribing Butch to fight a fake fight was a bit boring, the following story basically revolved around Butch.

Butch has a gold watch that was passed down from his ancestors.

He threw a fake fight, but did not deliberately lose the match as Masha said. Instead, he placed a heavy bet on himself to win, and then accidentally killed his opponent.

He thought that he would be hunted down by Masha, so he hurriedly took his money and fled. On the way, he discovered that he had left his ancestral gold watch at home.

He took great courage to return home. Without the killer, he could even leisurely bake himself some bread and have breakfast before leaving.

As a result, a shotgun was seen in the kitchen.

Vincent came out of the bathroom holding the book he was reading while taking a dump.

Silence is the main theme at this moment.

The audience was also confused. It seemed that Vincent was the protagonist, so he shouldn't die, right? According to the conventional routine, the protagonist would not die, and he would definitely be able to fight back.

Unfortunately, there was no twist. Butch simply raised his hand and fired. Vincent was blown away and sat back on the toilet.

"Oh, my god!" Some viewers exclaimed, "The protagonist died just like that?"

"This must be a dream."

“Why do I feel like I don’t understand this film?”

Facts tell everyone that this was not a dream. Butch drove away and met Marsa on the way. By chance, he saved the humiliated Marsa, and the other party gave up chasing him.

When everyone thought that the matter was over, the perspective turned back to Vincent. In his operation with Hey Man Jules, there was another person in the bathroom, and he ran out of bullets but failed to kill either of them.

As a result, on the way back to report, Vincent accidentally killed his own person in the back seat. After cleaning up, the two changed into loose clothes and went to a restaurant.

A familiar looking restaurant!

The robber couple appears.

"That's actually what happened!" Harvey Weinstein, who was sitting in the front row of the audience, felt his hands trembling. "The film has returned to the beginning. This is..."

"Si, I haven't seen it. Should I call it a circular narrative?"

"To be more precise, perhaps it should be called a circular complementary narrative." Steven Soderbergh was also shocked. "The narrative structure has been completely disrupted."

“This film should have three major stories in total.”

"Vincent and Mia, Vincent is the protagonist."

"Jules' redemption, Vincent is a supporting role."

"Butch and the Gold Watch, um, extras, die as soon as they appear."

"These three stories were interrupted and reassembled by Huang."

"Genius!" Steven Soderbergh looked at Harvey Weinstein in surprise. "You are right. Huang is a genius. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is genius enough, but it is more of a three-line narrative. The development of the story still follows the timeline."

"But in this film, even the timeline is messed up, and it doesn't look boring. Everything is like a circle, going back to the beginning."

"It turns out that disrupting the order of the movies does not affect the viewing experience."

"It's indeed a masterpiece!" Harvey showed a wry smile on his face, but it was not from his own company.

"It's actually like this! A genius approach, a genius attempt." A film critic who was writing a movie viewing record quickly crossed out the few lines of comments he had just written.

He took a deep breath and excitedly wrote a new comment in the notebook.

"This film uses a circular narrative method. The six stories connected from beginning to end form a closed narrative loop, but the meaning is not closed but open, forming a new film style."

"After Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Huang once again innovated the narrative structure of films. This time, the innovation is even more novel than Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, and it has paved a path for the latecomers in the film world. I seem to have seen the rise of a film master."

"The next decade in the film industry may be the era of Huang!"

Compared with film practitioners, the audience reacted a little slower, but when the robber couple played by Liang Jiahui and Uma Thurman pulled out guns, many viewers were stunned.

The previous scenes flashed back in my mind, and then began to automatically combine successfully.

There is also a special emotion that comes with it!

my God!

This movie is so cool!
