China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 335: Old thief Chen is here to create crossword puzzles for netizens?

The trailer of "The Matrix" is actually similar in logic to the trailer of "Person of Interest". They both tell the origin story, but the difference is that it is difficult for the audience to believe that this is the origin story of "The Matrix".

Because most people will subconsciously regard the destruction of human beings by machines as the ending, not the beginning. It is hard to imagine what story there will be after the destruction of human beings.

No matter how pitiful the experience of the machine was depicted in the first animated short film, and how sympathetic the audience was to it, it is basically impossible to make a movie with a machine that is not human or that exterminates the human race as the protagonist, unless it is an animation.

Obtaining high box office is determined by the principle of human empathy.

However, Chen Jingxing's animated trailers are extremely successful from a marketing perspective, which is why he has the confidence to remain mysterious about "The Matrix".

There are two types of mystery before a movie is released: one is mysterious so that the audience has little expectation, and the other is mysterious that can arouse the curiosity of the public.

"The Matrix" has created a second sense of mystery with its unique animated trailer marketing.

Both the media and netizens have joined the discussion on the two animated short films that have been released. The views of these two animated short films alone have exceeded 100 million.

And this also brought the promotion momentum of "The Matrix" to its peak.

…

He Yinglin looked at an interview program playing on her computer with a bewildered smile. The interviewees were the male and female protagonists of "The Matrix".

He Yinglin laughed out loud from time to time as she watched the two leading actors being questioned by the host in a panic. The effect of the starring actors of "The Matrix" on the show was simply too interesting.

So the first so-called concept trailer also made her empathize deeply, whether it was a little boy who fell out of favor and ran away from home, or a robot that had served a family for twenty years was about to be upgraded, especially when the last three robots were successively replaced.

The torture to death made her shed tears uncontrollably.

[Bet a hundred dollars, "The Matrix" is definitely about the war between humans and machines!]

These two well-produced and depressing animated short films also became popular immediately.

The promotion of "The Matrix" has become a kind of program effect. The actors' announcements and interviews are of course to promote the movie, but they cannot reveal the specific content of the movie, or even the setting and background, so it triggered a lot of interesting chemical reactions.

Chen Jingxing is simply not a good person, so he would rather take revenge on society.

"Are all of you playing humans?"

"Is the character in "The Matrix" different from the characters you have created in other works? Are robots more difficult to play than people?"

[Why do you all say it’s a human-machine war? I just watched an interview video, didn’t Director Chen say that the background of “The Matrix” is an era after humans were exterminated by machines? 】

Apparently she is not the only one who feels this way. After the second trailer, "Send a blade to Chen Jingxing" became a hot search topic again since the TV series "The Signal".

The sudden attacks by hosts, reporters and other guests on variety shows, as well as the creators and actors of "The Matrix", were either calm, or frightened, quick to respond, or slow to respond, or witty, or haha ​​and perfunctory in this bluff.

Even the reaction of begging for mercy was cut into a short video and spread quickly.

[The picture above shows the clothes. Old thief Chen is setting off a smoke bomb. Even ghosts don’t believe what he says.]

As a result, I was tortured to tears again, but this time it was for the human boy and the little girl who were filled with grief and anger. Whether it was the boy who died alone like a hero, or the little girl holding the teddy bear given by her brother in the dark night.

Huddled in the ruins, and finally being awakened from a sweet dream to face the most desperate situation, both made He Yinglin cry and curse.

[I was so schizophrenic by Chen Jingxing that I went to watch these two animations. After watching the first one, I gritted my teeth at the humans, and the robots started to torture me to death! After watching the second one, I was so angry at the humans.

The robot dog gnashed its teeth and returned my little brother! Stay away from my little sister! Go to hell! Humanity rises!]

He Yinglin waited for a week and finally saw the second animated short film. She wanted to see how the robot resisted and even tortured her back. She even imagined that the little robot boy did not die, but became a robot leader and led the robots to resist human oppression.

Fixed the tragic deaths of Teddy Bear and Universal Robot.

Or "Is playing a bionic robot a challenge for you?"

She is a relatively emotional person, and she was moved to the point of being moved or depressed by several movies by Chen Jingxing and DreamWorks. For example, the endings of "Comet" and "Fatal Identity" made her depressed for a long time, and "Source Code"

, "Mirage" and "Your Name" made her eat dog food until tears came to her eyes, and "Black Mirror" made her feel uncomfortable for several days after watching one episode.

[But since the second animation is a concept trailer, it must be meaningful. If it is not the origin, is it the ending? Is "The Matrix" a story that happened between the first animation and the second animation? If so

I admit that it feels very epic, but I really don’t want to watch it. I don’t like the ending of be. When I think about the final ending of human beings being as miserable as a lost dog, I can’t stand watching your movie no matter how good it is.】

However, by the time "Gravity" had been released and even the momentum had faded, not much material had been released for "The Matrix". The few stills released when filming started were almost sold out by Chen Jingxing's fans.

This chemical reaction became even more interesting after DreamWorks released the first trailer of "The Matrix", because everyone thought that the movie was about robots and that it was a story about robots rebelling against humans, so robot memes started to appear in the circle.

Don’t forget that people always say that DreamWorks regards the quality of its works as its highest goal, but they have a good business vision. Do you watch their film and television dramas that make losses? It is impossible to stand from the perspective of a robot, so don’t worry.]

"Haha... the action scenes that are more NG are actually action scenes." Faced with the host's surprise attack, Yan Xiaoyue and Lu Hongzhe laughed and muddled through.

"Is the ending of the movie a happy ending? It's HE, so humans defeat robots."

"Action scenes? I know director Chen Jingxing said before that there are many kung fu elements in "The Matrix", so are the action scenes with robots?"

"Director Chen Jingxing is so strict on the set? It's really unexpected..." the host asked with a smile: "Why did it fail so many times? Isn't it true that the person you are playing against is not a human being?"

After watching several funny videos of the main actors of "The Matrix", He Yinglin browsed the discussion of the "Matrix" trailer on the forum with great interest. In fact, when DreamWorks released the first trailer last week, she

Developed a great interest in the animated short film itself and The Matrix.

Yan Xiaoyue wore a fashionable androgynous slim-fit black suit with flaming red lips, looking like a supermodel who had just stepped off the catwalk. Lu Hongzhe also wore an ascetic suit and sat next to Yan Xiaoyue, a sense of surreal science fiction.

The wind blows in my face.

[Nima, old thief Chen is here to create crossword puzzles for netizens? I swear, if "The Matrix" doesn't look good, or doesn't meet my expectations, I will turn into a black man and abuse him passionately for a year!]

[If "The Matrix" is really about the war between humans and machines, I don't even know which side to take...]

[That’s right, the movie’s leading actor, Lu Hongzhe, was just attacked by the host in an interview, saying that he was playing a human being, and no one in the cast was playing a robot. Old thief Chen also said that human beings were exterminated by machines. This is not true.

Contradiction? Maybe Lu Hongzhe let it slip, and then Old Thief Chen released a smoke bomb to confuse everyone. Who would believe it? Humanity has been destroyed. Is "The Matrix" about robots fighting robots? 】

Because "The Matrix" was very mysterious from filming to finalization. Of course, at that time, because "Gravity" was scheduled for summer release, both the media and marketing accounts were tracking this first space movie in Chinese history.

It's a science fiction movie, so it's understandable that "The Matrix" doesn't get enough attention.

For example, "Is there a love scene in the movie? There is a love scene. Is it a love scene with a robot?"

[Hahaha, another one who is driven crazy. I am different. I don’t hate robots. I am concentrating on sharpening the blade for Chen Jingxing. 】

[Don’t think about it, didn’t Old Thief Chen say there will be a third animated short film? Maybe the third trailer will reveal the mystery? 】

[Haha, shake hands upstairs, I will insult him for a whole year, but I can reduce his sentence by half a year for the sake of "Gravity"]

Whether it is a variety show or a simple interview, everyone talks about robots and artificial intelligence. Whenever the main creative staff of "The Matrix", including director Chen Jingxing, appear on the show or are interviewed, they will be suddenly attacked during the communication and use robots to defraud the main creators.

their reaction.

Even when the star of "The Matrix" was interviewed or appeared on variety shows, he kept secrets about the plot of the movie. He even said that he or she had signed a confidentiality agreement so that he or she would not lose money - in a joking tone of course.

The teddy bear was playing children's songs and being kicked around like a football, which made her sob uncontrollably. Her roommate was so shocked that she asked her what happened. Then, after she watched this animated short,

Everyone else in the dormitory was also filled with indignation and indignation over the "revenge" of this animation and felt depressed. In the end, several sisters got together and cursed Chen Jingxing and DreamWorks for more than an hour before falling asleep.

This kind of short video that combines comedy and drama just hits the G-spot of the public. Everyone loves to watch horse-catching videos.

Even though it has been two days, the two animated short films on the Internet still attracted many netizens to discuss and interpret them.

[I also think that the second animated short film will not be a prequel as some people have analyzed. Humanity has perished, so what else can be filmed? Even though the first animation made many people sympathize with robots, if machines conflict with humans

, it is definitely easier for the audience to get involved with humans. Can the audience buy into the story of what happened after robots destroyed humans?

After a long time, it even became a kind of meme, just like the meme about a broadcast host reading white letters for money. The host tried every means to inquire about various information about "The Matrix", especially whether your character is a human or a robot, and whether the villain is a robot.

Whether the background of the story is Omnic Crisis, etc., then the actors of "The Matrix" will talk about it and compete with the host.

[For the sake of "Source Code", the sentence will be reduced by three months...]

[For the sake of "Your Name"...]

【For the sake of...】

He Yinglin saw how quickly Chen Jingxing changed from "Director Chen" and "Shen Jingshen" to "Old Thief Chen" in the mouths of movie fans, but she felt a sense of joy in her heart. Hum, this is an appetizing ending.
