Unscientific Movie King

Chapter 189 Bullfight Released
The movie Bullfighting is a low-budget movie, and the director Guan Hu is not a well-known director.

The male lead, Huang Bo, is not very well-known.

The heroine is Yan Ni, but she doesn’t have too many scenes, the main role still goes to Huang Bo.

With this lineup, it is impossible to impact the National Day box office which is packed with many big names. Not to mention whether it can get in, even if it can, it won't get many screenings.

Even if they get the screening schedule, they will be beaten badly by their competitors at the same time.

Therefore, it is a sensible decision to avoid the popular schedule and schedule the release in September.

But even so, the competition is still fierce because there are many people who share the same idea as them.

September 1st.

In the cinema, Qin Chuan attended the premiere of Bullfighting.

That afternoon, Qin Chuan arrived at the scene after choosing a more formal outfit.

He comes both for public and private reasons.

This drama was invested by Qinchao Entertainment, and it was also Huang Bo's first time as the leading actor, so he had to be there.

"Brother-in-law!"

At the entrance of the theater, Qin Chuan raised his hand to greet before he even approached.

The reporters in the middle of the aisle were stunned for a moment, and then their cameras kept clicking.

They didn't expect that they could see Qin Chuan just by receiving some red envelopes.

And called him brother-in-law?
Is his brother-in-law just bluffing?

"Xiao Chuan!"

The one who responded was Huang Bo.

Huang Bo took a few steps forward and patted Qin Chuan's shoulder heavily: "Why are you here? Aren't you busy?"

"I'm not busy. I just happened to be at home during this period. Besides, this is your first leading role in a movie. You have to come no matter how busy you are."

After greeting Huang Bo, Qin Chuan extended his hand to Guan Hu: "Hello, Director Guan."

"Hello, hello." Guan Hu greeted with a smile.

He is still very patient and enthusiastic towards his financial sponsor.

“I wish it a big box office success.”

"thanks, thanks."

After exchanging pleasantries at the entrance of the theater, Qin Chuan walked into the theater and sat down in the front row under the guidance of the staff.

When some viewers saw it was him, they exclaimed and shouted his name.

Qin Chuan stood up and bowed to the audience: "Thank you all for supporting bullfighting."

About ten minutes later, Wang Baoqiang arrived after Qin Chuan.

At that time, he had already won the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor, the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer, and the title of Best Actor at a foreign film festival.

Popularity is high.

There was also a commotion after entering the venue.

No one expected that an unknown niche movie would have the support of two big names.

"Brother Chuan."

Wang Baoqiang ran to Qin Chuan and sat down.

"Baoqiang, what are you doing recently? Where are you making a fortune?"

The movie hasn't started yet, Qin Chuan and Wang Baoqiang are chatting.

Wang Baoqiang chuckled and said, "Singing, doing public service advertisements, promoting TV dramas, and then building a house in my hometown."

The TV series he broadcast this year is called My Brother is Shunliu, an anti-Japanese film.

Most of the rest of the time is spent doing charity work, filming public service advertisements, and occasionally appearing on shows and singing.

He rebuilt a luxurious house for his parents in his hometown.

They originally bought an apartment in the city, but after living there for a few days, the two elders moved back home, saying that it was not fun in the city because they had no acquaintances there, and it cost money for food and drink every day, as well as paying property management and parking fees, which was not cost-effective.

I almost got depressed.

After returning to the village, I immediately became energetic and happy every day.

With this in mind, he simply bought a piece of land in the village and built a more luxurious house for his parents to make them happy.

Now, their family is the richest in the village.

Wang Baoqiang was talking happily, but Qin Chuan could sense something was wrong: "The TV series was filmed last year, right? There is no filming this year?"

How come such a popular artist still has a one-year gap? Something doesn't seem right.

Bao Qiang leaned back in his chair and smiled: "I filmed too much before. You know, I haven't had a rest for a few years. I want to relax this year."

He was put on ice, so he was put on ice. They also said that he was relaxing. I guess his contract is about to expire and has not been renewed, so Huayi is not going to promote him anymore.
But Qin Chuan didn't expose her: "I have a movie this winter and I'm short of a leading actor. Do you want to come over?"

Wang Baoqiang waved his hand and said, "Brother, I really am on vacation, you don't have to help me like this."

"I'm not helping you. I really have a play that I'm going to direct and act in. I just need a leading actor. Do you want to come?"

"You really didn't help me?"

"No help."

"Then I'll do it!"

Qin Chuan asked: "You don't even look at the script?"

"No need to look at it. With our relationship, I will do it even if you ask me to make a pornographic movie." "That's very loyal!"

Before the movie even started, Qin Chuan had already decided on the other male lead for Lost on Journey.

This is a fire.

Now that the actors have been cast, the preliminary preparations for this play are 50 percent complete.

After a while, Huang Bo and Guan Hu returned to the theater and the movie began.

This movie is adapted from a novel and tells the story of a team of Eighth Route Army soldiers who came to Mamuchi, a fortress village in the Yimeng Mountains during the war.

They were accompanied by cows donated by international friends. The villagers who had lived in the mountains for many years had never seen such black and white cows with abundant milk, and they were amazed.

Soon, the Japanese Funajiri troops approached and the Eighth Route Army retreated urgently, entrusting the cows to the villagers to feed before leaving.

The poor and timid villagers were worried that the cows would bring disaster, so they selected the cattle breeder by drawing red beans. The young widow Jiuer helped the poor Niu Er to draw lots, and finally Niu Er became the unlucky "lucky man..."

Jiuer is played by Yan Ni, and Niu Er is played by Huang Bo.

The movie is quite funny at the beginning, it takes a comedy approach, making people laugh while thinking about something, which is the complexity of human nature.

In the middle of the story, the Japanese invaders enter the village and the comedy turns into tragedy.

The whole village was massacred, and there were corpses everywhere. Men, even the elderly, were all killed, and broken arms and limbs were everywhere.

Jiuer, who loved to make people laugh, also died.

The women were stripped naked and disemboweled.

Niu Er, who was out herding cattle, was the only one who escaped the disaster. After seeing the tragic scene in the village, he was speechless.

"what!"

"what!"

Niu Er slipped and accidentally fell into the pit of corpses, and collapsed.

The soul and mind are greatly impacted.

It wasn't just Niu Er who was shocked. The audience in the cinema all felt mixed emotions and couldn't laugh when watching this scene.

Too miserable for this village.

Those beasts who committed such evil acts are simply not human beings.

The movie theater was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Qin Chuan even heard a girl crying behind him.

Wang Baoqiang next to him clicked his tongue.

I am not only lamenting the sadness of that era, but also the powerful acting skills of Huang Bo.

This dubbing actor is really buried.

It's a totally Oscar-worthy performance.

No, he’s even better than the best actor.

It doesn't look like it's acting.

I really can’t imagine how many years Huang Bo would have to wait for such a role if he hadn’t met Qin Chuan.

At the end of the movie, many years later, the disheveled Niu Er finally waited for the Eighth Route Army to arrive and returned the cow.

Speaking in a dialect, he asked the soldiers to write a name for the tombstone for him.

"That's the name on the tombstone."

On the paper, the soldier wrote "Niu Er's Tomb" for him.

After a gust of strong wind, the paper was blown into a mess. Niu Er pieced it together and Niu Er became Erniu, which he felt was almost the same.

This ending makes people feel sad again.

As the movie ended, applause broke out in the theater, and slowly, the applause became thunder.

Many people cried while watching the film.

Director Guan Hu and lead actor Huang Bo stood up and bowed deeply to the audience.

Qin Chuan was also applauding. Isn't this kind of movie any better than those weight loss movies in later generations that cost hundreds of millions to make, or those movies that were said to have cost 1 billion to make, but in the end the special effects for the entire movie were no more than a minute long, and the entire movie was filled with long and boring literary dialogues?
It's simply so much better.

Qin Chuan is willing to lose this eight million even if it means a loss.

"Thank you everyone, thank you."

After Guan Hu went on stage to thank everyone, he took Qin Chuan's place and bowed: "Thank you also to Mr. Qin Chuan for his investment. Without him, there would be no movie, and there would not be such a good leading actor."

Huang Bo got this play through the backdoor.

At first, Guan Hu was unhappy, but later he couldn't close his mouth.

He likes actors like this so much.

Qin Chuan not only provided him with funds to solve his urgent problem, but also gave him such a good actor.

The character of Niu Er was completely brought to life by Huang Bo.

It was only after Guan Hu spoke that the media audience present knew why Qin Chuan was there. It turned out that he was an investor.

But he does have a good eye.

"Director Guan Hu, thank you for your praise. Such a good movie will not be buried. I just contributed a little bit. The success of this movie mainly depends on the efforts of the director, actors and behind-the-scenes staff... I hope everyone will support Bullfighting."

"After watching this play, I was deeply shocked. Director, if there is a play like this next time, please remember to find me. I will act in it even if I don't get paid."

Qin Chuan and Wang Baoqiang each expressed their feelings about the movie.
