China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

At this time, countless audiences across the country began to wait for the opening.

Zhang Weiping is one of them.

"Night at the Museum" is the biggest opponent of "House of Flying Daggers", so Zhang Weiping naturally needs to know how strong his opponent is.

By this time, he would naturally not be so naive as to think that Lu Ping An was nothing to be afraid of.

And this is why he wants to make the announcement of "House of Flying Daggers" unprecedentedly grand.

The plot of "House of Flying Daggers" cannot be changed. If you want to succeed in "Wonderful Night", what else can you do besides making the show bigger?

It sounds quite angry.

At that time, Lu Ping'an tricked him and obtained the general plot of "House of Flying Daggers".

Zhang Weiping immediately suggested that Lao Mouzi change the plot.

But Lao Mouzi felt that the plot did not need to be changed, and it was fine as it was.

As a result, the plot is now completely covered up.

While Zhang Weiping was angry with Lu Ping'an, he also had a lot of objections to Lao Mouzi.

But he actually still feels that "House of Flying Daggers" is not that bad.

At the same time, there is also the possibility of a rise against the trend.

Because "Wonderful Night" may not be any better, as long as it's not bad enough, there's room for maneuver.

Nowadays, if "House of Flying Daggers" is criticized for any point on the market, as long as "Wonderful Night" hits the mark, it will be fun to play.

In short, it is a principle.

I can't clean it, and you can't even think of it.

At this time, a man next to me picked up the phone:

"Okay... ok, ok, I'll tell you if it's good or not after watching it. For now, let's get started."

After hearing this, Zhang Weiping knew that this was the reaction of most movie fans.

Nowadays, many people on the Internet are saying that "House of Flying Daggers" is a piece of shit. It hurts my eyes after watching it. They dare not watch "Wonderful Night" for fear that it will be a piece of shit again.

Therefore, many people ask others to test the drug first, and then wait until the online ratings come out before taking a look.

Zhang Weiping felt that these people were mentally ill.

"House of Flying Daggers" is shit, you guys are maggots!

Just as I was thinking about it, a cinema staff member walked up to the screen and started to remind: "Don't damage the 3D glasses, otherwise you will be compensated according to the price. If you need to replace the glasses clip, please tell me immediately."

This is an important reminder to the children in the cinema.

Lu Ping'an said, "Watch it with the whole family", which has great appeal.

There are at least 4 children in this theater now.

After a set of precautions, we learned about 3D glasses, and after five or six people changed their glasses, the movie officially started.

Zhang Weiping was a little disdainful.

He thinks "3D" is a gimmick.

This idea is similar to that of many people.

After all, it is normal for new things to have different acceptance levels.

Zhang Weiping is one of them.

Then came five or six advertisements. Zhang Weiping knew at a glance that Star Film and Television could earn at least 3 million from these six advertisements!

Then the movie started, and as the company's opening picture of Xingchen Film and Television appeared, strange shouts appeared in the theater for the first time.

It turns out that the opening scene that looks like the Milky Way is also 3D.

Zhang Weiping, who just sneered at "3D", couldn't help but widen his eyes.

This effect is absolutely amazing!

He almost couldn't help but want to reach out and reach for the stars!

At this time, Zhang Weiping already had a very ominous premonition.

After a series of 3D opening pictures from four companies, the screen went black and the film officially started.

As a burst of mysterious and thick background music sounded.

Each static "museum exhibit" appeared on the big screen.

Museum gate, standing soldiers, wax figures of unknown persons, lion models, dinosaur skeletons, etc.

The visual effects also appeared from the first second.

That kind of three-dimensional 3D effect, coupled with subtitles such as "Director, Starring" that are about to jump out of the screen.

Everyone in the theater now understands that this is a 3D movie.

Then they all lamented that the tickets they spent dozens or hundreds of dollars on were worth it!

After a small shock, the movie continues.

After skipping the "museum exhibits" scene in the opening two minutes, the movie officially enters the main plot.

The protagonist Fan Chenggong, played by Fan Wei, appears in a hurry on the street.

He looked a little down and out, as if he was going out to do something.

When he arrived at his "parking space", he found that his bicycle was missing!

"Where's my bike?"

In one sentence, the theater burst into laughter.

Chef Fan also lost his car in Lu Pingan's movie. The small dream linkage and the joyful BGM made people laugh.

In the movie, Fan successfully lost his bicycle. He searched for it for a long time, until he looked at the time on his watch, and then left with an annoyed look on his face.

The camera turned and he arrived at the gate of a primary school.

As a result, there was no one in the elementary school today. Fan Chenggong was reminded by the guard, played by Mr. Qi Ke, that today was a parent-teacher meeting, and it was still morning, and now the child had been picked up by Fan Chenggong's ex-wife.

Then Fan Chenggong came to the home of his ex-wife, played by Mr. Zhou, and after asking, he found out that his son didn't tell him about today's parent-teacher meeting.

Then Chen Kun, who played the role of his ex-wife and current husband, appeared, and the theater burst into laughter.

It turns out that Chen Kun looks like a nerd and has seven or eight mobile phones strapped to his waist.

When the two men met, the scene was a bit awkward.

After hesitating for a long time, the two people said hello.

"have you eaten."

"have eaten."

"you busy."

"okay."

The awkward conversation is over.

Then I found out during the conversation with my ex-wife that my current husband is a stock trader.

Then he asked Fan Chenggong if he had been kicked out by the landlord again.

Fan Chenggong tried to explain, but it was of no use.

The ex-wife made a suggestion: "You will change the landlord in a few months. I think it is better for your son not to stay with you until you stabilize."

In a few short scenes, fans will know the background.

The protagonist is poor, unemployed and divorced, and a son is awarded to him, but soon no longer.

What a miserable man.

And the worse is yet to come.

The protagonist took his son out to play and watched his son play basketball, but he was hit by the basketball.

After the small comedy scene, the father and son ate at Burger King.

It's rare to see my son and have a good meal once.

The protagonist said so.

He was just embarrassed when paying, but he quickly put away his empty wallet and returned to his seat to eat with his son as if nothing had happened.

At the dinner table, my son mentioned that he no longer wanted to be a basketball player when he grew up, but wanted to be a stock trader, just like his stepfather.

What father would feel good hearing such words?

But the protagonist did not lose his temper. After hearing the stock trader, he imitated the "stepdad" appearance and made his son laugh.

Viewers now know that father and son have a good relationship.

It's just that the "father" is really too depressed, unable to provide a stable growth environment for his son, and he has not set a good example.

So what kind of person is the protagonist?

The ensuing conversation between father and son has already explained this.

Facing difficulties, the protagonist encourages his son to be optimistic, everything will be fine, and his career will soon usher in spring.

But the son asked whether the protagonist should first find a job that an ordinary person would do.

Obviously, the son seems to understand the situation better than the protagonist.

The image of a father who "does great things" that the protagonist Fan Chenggong has always created has come to an end in the face of the current predicament.

The picture was fixed on a face that was quite happy but now full of loneliness, and a wave of sadness overflowed the screen.

In the end, the protagonist decided that he had to give up his vain thoughts, find a job, and stabilize.

Then the camera turned and Gao Xiumin's guest recruitment director appeared.

The two old partners work very smoothly together.

Gao Xiumin: "Are you only 35?"

Fan Chenggong: "He looks a bit old."

"I'm really a little anxious, as long as I'm in good health."

Gao Xiumin smiled and continued to ask, "You were married once, right? Do you have any children?"

"I have a 10-year-old son."

"It's a pity that with your conditions, it's not easy to find a partner."

"Well, I'm here to find a job."

"Ah hahaha, sorry, I made a mistake, try again."

Gao Xiumin cleared her throat, and her matchmaker-like face instantly changed to a professional one, "Fan Chenggong, your resume is amazing. I have been working here for 30 years and I have never seen a resume like yours."

Fan Chenggong was happy: "Low-key, low-key."

Gao Xiumin's face changed: "There is no one with such an obscure resume like yours."

Fan Chenggong: "..."

It turns out that the protagonist is a "genius inventor" who invented some useless things, such as a flashlight that lights up when he snaps his fingers, and calls himself "Xi Yiou (CEO) of the snap-finger technology company."

The two also argued over snapping fingers and slapping hands.

It’s strange that a middle-aged man with such an unremarkable resume and a stubborn personality can find a job.

However, the director still gave him a suggestion: a museum on the verge of bankruptcy where everyone he hired would not be able to stay for a day.

This ends the first act.

The first act only lasts about five minutes, and the audience knows all the background.

The protagonist is a frustrated inventor, poor, unremarkable, stubborn, divorced, his son is disappointed in him, and he is about to lose custody of his son.

Therefore, the protagonist wants to start as a night shift security guard to stabilize himself.

It's just that this place of work seems to be haunted?

The amount of information is a bit overwhelming, but not difficult to understand at all.

The audience also has high expectations because they know that the objects in the museum will come alive.

So the rest of the story is definitely interesting.

Then the second act begins.

The protagonist comes to the museum.

This is a deserted museum. The interior of the museum is well decorated, but there is no one there.

Entering the door, the protagonist is amazed by the huge dinosaur skeleton.

Not only the protagonist was amazed, but the audience was also amazed.

Because of the relationship between 3D and the foreground of the lens, the dinosaur head is very close to the eyes of the audience. Coupled with the suspenseful background music, it seems as if the dinosaur head will come to life and take a bite in the next second, which is quite tense.

However, I was amazed by the visual effects and was quickly attracted by the plot.

The protagonist went into the museum to report and met a history graduate student played by Li Binbin. This girl was gentle, virtuous and warm-hearted, and introduced the protagonist to work-related matters.

The protagonist is curious as to why such a large museum is so deserted.

The graduate student asked back: "There are too few people who like history. Everyone likes fresh and foreign things. Of course, no one looks at old things. But we will also keep pace with the times. You see, these foreign exhibits were recently introduced. I just don’t know how much business it can attract.”

The protagonist didn't express his opinion. In fact, he didn't like old things very much.

When the two passed by the wax figure of Sima Qian, the protagonist didn't recognize who it was. He glanced at the nameplate and read out the three words "Sima Qian".

Li Binbin immediately began to briefly introduce who this was.

The protagonist's thoughts are very strange: "Isn't he... so what? Why does he have a beard?"

Li Binbin was embarrassed on the spot. Before he could reply, the acrimonious curator appeared.

The curator, played by Xu Shanzheng, has a strong point and a Magic City accent. He starts to criticize the protagonist and Li Binbin: "Don't touch it, and look, there is dust. Didn't you see it? This is a museum. It’s not your home.”

He's sarcastic and mysophobic, which makes him annoying, but who makes him the boss?

He already had a bad impression even before joining the job, which did not deter the protagonist at all.

Continuing to join the company, Northeastern Lao Zhao appears as the security chief.

Northeastern old Zhao has a treacherous look on his face, and he is a "big liar" at first glance.

However, Zhendang is really serious when he speaks, he is very enthusiastic, and he seems to be a good person.

It’s just that after talking too much, this enthusiasm becomes a little abnormal.

It turns out that the three security guards are in poor health and are old enough to retire, and the protagonist is their successor.

So the three security guards are so enthusiastic because their impending retirement makes them happy?

The next shot will tell you that things are not that simple.

A second ago, they were greeting each other with warm faces and smiles. After the male protagonist walked out of the room, the three of them suddenly changed their faces and looked evil.

The story also leaves a suspense through the mouth of Northeastern Lao Zhao: "Is he suitable? Couldn't be more suitable!"

At this point, the protagonist is still not interested in the night security job.

He said that he would first find a stable job, but his mentality has not really changed to a practical level.

So when the security chief took him to get acquainted with the museum and explained one thing after another, the protagonist always went in one ear and out the other without paying much attention.

After all, they are just night security guards, and everything on display is fake. How difficult can this job be?

In this scene, Lu Pingan also used a shot to tease the audience.

Visitors know the exhibits will come to life, but not when.

At this time, the protagonist lost track of the naughty security chief, and suddenly the "exhibit" behind him moved.

Many viewers sat up straight: The main act is here!

It turned out that it was the security chief who was pretending!

After the protagonist was startled, he continued the introduction.

Buddha head, Genghis Khan, wildlife exhibition hall and so on.

The audience also followed the camera to visit this luxuriously decorated museum with rich exhibits.

Many people are wondering, does this museum exist in reality?

Putting doubts aside, the protagonist noticed a stuffed monkey.

The security chief introduced the monkey’s name as “Wukong”.

The protagonist still doesn't care much, he thinks this is the old man's fun.

Anyway, he is not the kind of person to give names to dead things.

But he didn't care that the old man was really talking to "Wukong".

Then the security chief introduced the core protagonist of the movie: King Zhou of Shang.

"King Zhou of Shang?! Is it true or false?"

Fan Chenggong had a "You're kidding me" expression all over his face.

The audience also laughed. The performance of the two was exactly the same as during the Spring Festival Gala, and it was very funny.

The security chief explained: "I'm not an archaeologist, how do I know if it's true or false?"

But after finishing speaking, the security chief focused his flashlight on the oracle-bone tortoise-back panel at the back of the coffin: "That is an oracle-bone tortoise-back panel, and it says that the person in the coffin is King Zhou of Shang."

After the protagonist Fan successfully listened, his expression was exactly the same as that of the audience, full of disbelief.

The security chief continued: "This tortoise's back plate is made of 24k pure gold. It is very valuable."

This time Fan Chenggong finally cheered up.

"You have to watch this thing carefully!"

The security chief also agreed meaningfully: "Yes, you have to keep an eye on it."

The camera shows a close-up of Lao Zhao from Northeast China.

Obviously, this turtle back plate is special.

After the introduction, Fan Chenggong was told that he would officially join the company tomorrow.

After returning home, he told the news that he had found a job in the early stage.

I just didn’t have the nerve to say “night security”, but “work in a museum”.

Fan Chenggong still couldn't let go.

The camera turned and Fan Chenggong started working the next day.

The three security guards solemnly warned that they must follow the order in the manual.

And: "Never let anything in, or anything out."

Fan Chenggong looked confused, but the security chief didn't say much, looked at the time and left.

These warnings also slipped out of Fan Chenggong's mind as the three security guards left.

As night falls, the Museum’s Wonderful Night officially begins. (End of chapter)
