270 My Sassy Girl is released(1/3)
No. 23, Hong Kong Island
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, there were already long queues at the entrances of many Hong Kong Island Theater, which shows that Ye Fan's publicity was not in vain during this period.
In order to promote "Barbaric Girlfriend", major investors added 20 million Hong Kong dollars in funding, and the remaining 5 million sponsorships were used to make copies.
Starting from November 24, the promotion of "Brutal Girlfriend" overseas has begun, and after the end of the [Golden Horse Awards], the movie copies have been sent to major Asian markets one after another.
If you only promote "Barish Girlfriend" in China, of course you won't spend so much money, but if you divide it into other Asian countries, this publicity fee may not be enough.
"The Savage Girlfriend" is a foreign film for other countries. It is definitely not as good as their own films in terms of publicity. Ye Fan himself has no time to pass, so he will inevitably spend money on promotion.
Fortunately, the promotion cost can be saved by distribution from Hong Kong Island in other countries. With Ye Fan's fame, according to the feedback from Star Company today, the promotion effect of the movie overseas is quite good.
During the same period of Christmas, the more competitive movie in Hong Kong is Brother Hua's "The Gambler 1999", and the Mainland is mainly "Seeking Away".
In Taiwan and other countries, Ye Fan has not heard of any blockbusters to be published, which makes Ye Fan believe that "The Savage Girlfriend" can kill randomly in Asia!
When it was almost midnight on the 24th, "My Savage Girlfriend" was about to begin, and audiences from all over the world also entered the venue...
Zhang Baizhi, who had just returned to Hong Kong Island, also followed her current boyfriend Zhu Yongtang into a theater.
"Azhi, our location is here, hurry up and the movie is about to begin."
"It's all right, there are so many people watching this movie!"
Zhu Yongtang smiled and said, "You have just returned to Hong Kong Island. You may not know how popular Ye Fan is."
"The moment he promoted on our side some time ago, it was not inferior to your "King of Comedy". Stephen Chow regarded him as a great enemy, so it was not surprising that there were many people who wanted to watch his movies."
Zhang Baizhi smiled and said, "I knew he was very popular in the music industry before, and now I know what he was doing at the [Golden Horse Awards]. But I didn't expect that as a singer, his movies could be so popular."
Zhu Yongtang admired: "His movies can allow Rong Shao and Qing Xia to win the best actors and actresses, and his own movies have a high box office. Many people in the circle admire his movie talent."
Zhang Baizhi smiled when she heard this. When she returned to Hong Kong Island from Australia this year, Ye Fan's two movies were over.
She only knew that Ye Fan was very popular in the music industry, and she was busy filming commercials and dating, and then filming "The King of Comedy". She was really not very clear about Ye Fan's achievements in the movie.
If Ye Fan hadn't come to Hong Kong to do movie promotion and gossip about the [Golden Horse Awards], she wouldn't have paid much attention to Ye Fan, a mainland star.
But after seeing Stephen Chow attaching so much importance to Ye Fan, Cecilia Cheung became interested in Ye Fan.
Since it was Christmas Eve, Zhu Yongtang asked her to watch a movie during the festival, so Cecilia Cheung called her to watch "The Savage Girlfriend".
She wanted to see what the movie that could make Stephen Chow pay attention to, and whether it could threaten her "King of Comedy".
Just as the two were discussing Ye Fan and his gossip, the lights in the screening room gradually went out, the screen slowly lit up, and the movie officially began.
With the background music playing, after the opening, the picture officially enters the plot...
On the desolate hillside, a figure stood under a tree.
Ye Fan's slightly disappointed monologue rang:
"Two years ago today, she and I buried the time capsule here together. We agreed to meet again here in two years..."
"Today is the day when we meet again two years later, but she has not appeared yet. I have been waiting for her..."
At the same time, the camera slowly narrowed, and Ye Fan's look of disappointment appeared on the screen...
When Zhang Baizhi saw Ye Fan's look on the screen, he burst out with a "pop" sound, which caused Zhu Yongtang's puzzled gaze.
"He looks so rustic, and it feels funny with such a handsome face."
Zhu Yongtang smiled and said a few words in cooperation.
Others in the hall saw Ye Fan destroying his style and acting. In addition to the sporadic laughter, many people were also wondering what happened two years ago? Why did he and her make a two-year appointment and she made a mistake?
This is what the audience thought about seeing this beginning, and then, the big words "My Savage Girlfriend" appeared in the picture...
This reverse order method suddenly caught the audience's attention. Many reporters and film critics in other places were wondering, has Chen Kexin's director style changed?
Little did Chen Kexin violated his principles because Ye Fan gave too much money.
Then there was the scene of Ye Fan taking a photo, and the call from his mother asked him to take time to see his aunt...
Immediately afterwards, the film erupted a plot in which the male protagonist was raised by his parents as a daughter when he was a child, which actually laid the groundwork for some characteristics of the male protagonist's personality...
The picture turns black and the three large characters in the upper half appear in the picture.
Ye Fan and several classmates who had not seen each other for two years were reunion. Like most boys, Ye Fan began to brag about his various heroic deeds after joining the army...
Just as several people were bragging at the table, Ye Fan suddenly discovered a beautiful woman passing by outside the restaurant.
This passerby beauty is played by Zeng Li [Song Mingyu], who only showed her side face, but those who are familiar with her can recognize her at a glance.
Zeng Li, wearing a long red dress, showed endless charm with her long hair as she walked.
It not only attracted Ye Fan's gaze, but also made many male audiences from all over the world open their eyes and fall into obsession. It didn't come back to their senses after some people were pinched by their female companions.
Unlike these people who can only be in their minds, Ye Fan asked Zeng Li to wear this long skirt and "act" at home several times.
Fortunately, Ye Fan bought the long skirt at home, otherwise every time he finished "acting", the long skirt would be broken, and the crew's funding would definitely increase!
At this time, Ye Fan's inner monologue rang again in the picture:
"Wow, this beauty is so beautiful... I am my ideal type... I can't help but want to chat with you..."
This kind of monologue of the male protagonist appears many times in the movie, and through this first-person self-talk, it plays a lot in shaping the character image of the male protagonist.
Just when the audience thought Ye Fan put down his glass and was about to go out to chat with him, his phone rang.
Ye Fan's mother urged him to visit his aunt and told Ye Fan that his aunt would introduce him to a girl...
After the dinner with his classmates, Ye Fan came to the subway station and prepared to visit his aunt along the way.
This is the scene of the subway station...
After Ye Fan pulled Zeng Li firmly, he looked at Zeng Li.
This was the first time Ye Fan saw Zeng Li’s face. When he saw the beautiful Zeng Li, Ye Fan’s eyes were a little stunning, and he unconsciously took a few more glances.
At this time, Ye Fan's stunning and slightly embarrassed look made the audience see that he is very outgoing in front of men, but he is more shy when facing beautiful women.
If we can summarize it in the words of later generations, we are like people like otaku and strong-mouthed kings.
When Ye Fan recognized Zeng Li as the girl she saw in the hotel, she showed a little disappointment in her eyes.
Zeng Li meets Ye Fan's ideal type, but unfortunately he doesn't like drunk girls.
Many critics watched Ye Fan's eye scenes cheered in their hearts.
Ye Fan didn't say a word in this plot, but the emotions revealed in his eyes made people feel that he said everything!
Many smart viewers understand why Ye Fan wanted to destroy his style, because if he did not reduce his appearance, who would pay attention to his acting skills?
This made many people find that Ye Fan's acting skills have improved a lot, and they are even more amazed at him. How many surprises does Ye Fan want to bring to people?
Thinking of this, many film critics and audiences watched it attentively...
Seeing the first meeting between the male and female protagonists, many people knew that the movie was beginning to get to the point.
However, many people don’t understand why the heroine has to drink alcohol? How does this setting be related to barbarism?
The plot quickly advanced to the subway. The drunk Zeng Li leaned against the guardrail, and as the train swung slightly, he became even more confused.
Below, there were audience members discussing in a low voice: "Hey, have you noticed that the beauty is really cute when she is drunk!"
“…”
On the picture, Ye Fan peeked at Zeng Li a few times, but she glared back. He felt a little guilty and quickly withdrew his gaze.
In the picture, Ye Fan has another monologue.
Next, because Zeng Li shook her hair, the guest starring [Pan Yueming] on the seat looked up at the person who disturbed her.
After he found out that he was a drunk girl, he couldn't say anything and did his own thing.
At this time, an elderly man stood next to Zeng Li, and obviously smelled the smell of wine in Zeng Li's body and curled his lips.
Young people today know how to drink.
Zeng Li seemed to have found the old man beside her, and then looked at [Pan Yueming] wearing a pink T-shirt on the seat, and said angrily: "Stand up for me, don't you know how to give up your seat when you see the old man?"
[Pan Yueming] looked up at this nosy woman, rolled her eyes, breathed out from her nostrils, and ignored her while blowing bubble gum.
Suddenly, Zeng Li unexpectedly slapped [Pan Yueming]...
This slap not only made him a little confused, but the audience was also stunned.
Although many people don’t like girls who drink, their sense of justice towards the heroine still makes many people nod and praise them. However, is it appropriate to suddenly attack and slap a man in the face?
Are you a girl who wants to uphold justice? I guess you want the hero to save the beauty after arguing a while?
This is what many viewers think.
[Pan Yueming] looked up at Zeng Li, who was about to argue with her, but she saw Zeng Li looking vicious.
"What? Isn't it good? I'm going to fight?"
Not to mention Ye Fan being frightened in this scene, even the audience was shocked.
Wow, Zeng Li plays the real murderer, she really has the kindness and courage! She really dares to play such an image!
[Pan Yueming] After looking at Zeng Li, he looked at the others in the carriage, and after a few seconds he chose to admit defeat.
