Chapter 644: .Click to open

Zhang Weiming is definitely a big fan of Wang Yifan.
Of course, Zhang Weiming has also taken a lot of red envelopes with Wang Yifan's movies in recent years.
Every time there is a new movie released by Wang Yifan, or even Xingmeng or Huaxin, if there is some screening, Zhang Weiming and other happy film critics who have been cooperating will definitely be invited.
This time is no exception.
Speaking of it, Zhang Weiming didn't like Wang Yifan's movie at first, but the turning point was the "Father".
The deeper the experience in many industries, the greater the impact, and the same is true for the film critic industry.
In fact, many film critics do not earn much money. After all, when people invite film critics to write reviews, first of all, you must be qualified to be invited.
Therefore, a lot of film critics changed their careers as they did it.
Zhang Weiming is considered to be a relatively high-paid film critic. He is currently contributing to the ECCOM film section, so he is considered a columnist film critic.
Therefore, for this movie, not only can he get a lot of money from "Edge of Tomorrow", but he can also get a remuneration from ECCOM.
"Old Yu, you are here too." After Zhang Weiming entered the theater, he smiled and greeted another film critic. The circle of film critics said it was big or not, but it was not small.
Yu Sheng is also a film critic and a frequent visitor to Huaxin. To put it bluntly, film critics have to eat, and naturally they have to have a good relationship with some film production companies, theaters, etc., at least when people click on it, they can remember to invite you.
"Lao Zhang, you are a bit late." Yu Sheng said with a smile.
Zhang Weiming glanced at the theater. It can be said that the theater that can accommodate 500 people is basically full.
"Let's talk back!" Zhang Weiming nodded, replied, and then went to find his seat.
Some people may ask, aren’t all the screenings by invitation? Is there still a time for dissatisfaction?
The answer is naturally yes. Invite film critics and invite media. That is to give money. If there are more invitations, it is also a not low cost, which is not affordable for ordinary movies.
Therefore, most of the time, special screenings may not be full.
"Sorry, please let me down..."
All the way to the golden position in the middle, as soon as I sat down, I discovered that there were two acquaintances next to him.
"Lao Lin, Lao Chen, it's strange, you guys are here too." Zhang Weiming couldn't help but joked.
The Lao Lin mentioned by Zhang Weiming. Lin Kan is a columnist film critic for the "New Weekly" movie column. Everyone is in a circle. Zhang Weiming has worked with each other, so he is more familiar.
The reason why he would ask Lin Kan if he has time to watch movies is because film critics actually have a camp. For example, Zhang Weiming, he is the kind of film critic who is more compliant with the trend and will not look down on commercial films and promote art films .
But Lin Kan is on the contrary. He particularly doesn't like commercial films. In many cases, the films he will go to are literary and artistic films.
And the other one, Chen Qun, is different. Chen Qun is a contracted film critic of Times Entertainment, which can be said to be the pen of Times Light and Shadow Group. This kind of pen is available in all major groups.
And among the big giants, they often spray each other, and the leading ones are the film critics who have signed contracts.
"Haha, this movie, my old club also has investment, so what's so strange about me?" Chen Qun said with a smile.
Another Lin Kan shook his head and said: "There is no way, I have to have a meal. Nowadays, art movies are almost dead. If you don't change, you will have no food to eat."
Zhang Weiming and Chen Qun looked at each other and smiled, didn't they? Lin Kan, these literary and artistic film critics, although not as exaggerated as he said, the truth is also true. How can the public relations expenses of commercial blockbusters and the thickness of the red envelopes given by those literary films compare?
Many literary and artistic movies don't show any screening at all, because they are useless.
Moreover, they are really bad money. Where can they give film critics a red envelope for a batch of search?
The three people said a few words, the lights in the theater dimmed, and the movie was about to begin.
At the beginning of the movie, the logo of the production company that appeared was Xingmeng Entertainment, followed by Huaxin, Times Light and Shadow, Shengtang Kyushu, and so on.
"Edge of Tomorrow" can be said to have brought in the domestic private giants and Huaying. The money is endless. Only in this way can the benefits be divided to gain the support of everyone.
Then there are a few very conspicuous characters, the works of director Wang Yifan!
Then, pictures began to appear on the big screen. The first thing that appeared in the picture was something like snowflakes when the signal was not received on the TV.
Then, it gradually became clear, and pictures began to appear.
It's just that the picture is black and white, and it seems a bit stuck, and the picture quality is not very clear. It feels like a black-and-white TV at home when I was a child. There are a lot of pockmarks on it, which is very textured.
Tokyo Tower, Krumlin Palace, Buckingham Palace, Arc de Triomphe in Paris, Eiffel Tower, Egyptian Pyramid...Of course, there is no doubt the White House, which has been bombed many times in Hollywood movies.
The iconic buildings all over the world were hit by countless fireballs from the sky and collapsed.
Then countless aliens with tentacles appeared on the big screen, many tentacles swept across a large area, and fireballs shot out of their mouths and shot down a bomber in the sky.
In the first few tens of seconds of the movie, the large theater that can accommodate 500 people was overwhelmed by the sounds of various aircraft, artillery, battleships, aircraft carriers, tanks, armored vehicles, missiles, and alien attacks. Seven or eight sounds are mixed together, and no one can tell which sounds are in them.
Then all the voices stopped, and what appeared on the big screen were ruins everywhere, wherever they went there was a scorched earth, a scene of the end of the world.
Then color finally appeared on the big screen.
On a TV set, a host is broadcasting news.
It turns out that these pictures are the presenter introducing the current situation facing the earth.
"At present, due to the invasion of aliens, Europe, America, Africa, Southeast Asia, and Central Asia have all fallen in a short period of three years. A large number of foreigners have sought refuge in China, and leaders of various countries around the world have formed an Earth coalition in China.
As the only remaining big country on the earth, our country in China is responsible for leading the earth coalition forces to drive the alien invaders out of the earth! "
"Interesting! It's finally our Chinese people's turn to save the world and save the planet. Just for this, I will give high scores!" A relatively young media reporter audience couldn't help but smile.
"This special effect is really enjoyable. The first ten seconds are too cool, but unfortunately it is too short! The director of our Chinese film has finally started to blow up the White House. I have been waiting for many years." An online film critic said.
"It's so burning at the beginning, it shouldn't disappoint!"
The twenty-odd seconds at the beginning of "Edge of Tomorrow" actually cost a lot of money. Although part of it was synthesized from other videos, many things were actually shot.
Although these are just background introductions, who dares to say that it is not important?
