"I didn't expect her to come too."

Amidst the slow music, everyone was watching the opening of the movie "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" attentively. Xia Yu on the side suddenly approached Luo Xun and said something like this in a confused way, which made Luo Xun feel curious:

"Who?"

"Xu Wenjing."

Luo Xun was startled. The name Xu Wenjing was not unfamiliar to him. He was the earliest film critic in China, the vice president of the Film Association, and a shareholder and even founder of many domestic film-related magazines. He was considered a top penman in the film and television industry. Very influential people:

"Where?"

"The second one in the third row."

Zhang Suining also saw people.

Xia Yu smiled and said: "I guess I accepted Master Xing's invitation. I even want to praise Zhou Xingchi for his courage. You must know that the reason why Master Xing's "Yangtze River No. 7" received such negative reviews has a lot to do with Xu Wenjing. At that time When the movie was released, the magazines and newspapers under her name did not praise the movie. She even wrote a movie review herself, which was thousands of words long and criticized Xingye's movie as worthless. The article at that time Film reviews are very popular and affect the choices of many viewers, so according to normal logic, no matter which film critic Xingye invites this time, he should not invite this one. "

"..."

Luo Xun had heard about this matter. Now that he knew that the other party was at the scene, he couldn't help but look back. As expected, he saw Xu Wenjing holding a notebook in his hand. The other party was about forty years old and wore gold-rimmed glasses. , he looks very intellectual. Who would have thought that under such a temperamental appearance, the pen could be very sharp and even sharp.

Seems to feel something.

Xu Wenjing also raised her head and glanced at Luo Xun, but there was nothing in her heart. When she appeared here today, almost everyone looked at her with curious eyes. In fact, not to mention the group of people present, even Xu Wenjing herself Unexpectedly, among the many film critics who participated in the first event of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" in Yanjing, Zhou Xingchi actually invited her...

Enemy?

I can only admit that the king of comedy is indeed courageous, but at the same time, Xu Wenjing will not be merciful because of this. The biggest feature of her film reviews is that she divides the good and the bad in detail, and she will not put aside her opinions because of the so-called emotional bonus. Aesthetic standards of film.

The opening music ends.

The first scene of the film is very beautiful, with green mountains and green waters, beautiful scenery, and a village built near the mountains and rivers. They seem to be all local fishermen. On a small boat by the river, a little girl of three or four years old is watching. Looking at the river, he whispered softly: "A turtle crawls and crawls, and two fish swim and swim..."

The little girl has pretty features.

Looks extremely cute.

On the bank of the river, the little girl's father showed a warm smile and sent the girl to the bank. He also teased her: "Dad is going into the water. Don't get so close to the river. You will be caught by monsters."

"There are no monsters here!"

The little girl retorted to her father in a childish voice. The little girl's father smiled when he heard this, and suddenly pointed to the river mysteriously: "There are no monsters here? Look, what is that..."

The little girl was startled.

She stared uncomfortably in the direction her father pointed, and saw the green lake water rising with waves, making the lake surface shimmering, and a head covered by a fishing net suddenly sprang out of the quiet lake water, directly covering her head. The girl trembled with fright:

"Haha, it's me!"

The father opened his arms proudly, but the little girl dropped her mouth and started crying loudly. The girl was pure-minded and she was really frightened. The father saw this and hurriedly comforted him. In order to make the child laugh again, he even stood on his head in the water. Only two feet were exposed, swinging left, right, back and forth.

"Kekeke..."

The girl's crying gradually stopped and she let out a laugh like a silver bell, but her father's legs exposed on the lake suddenly shook, then trembled slightly like a twitch, and then struggled vigorously!

Water splashed everywhere.

The music is cold and eerie.

The father's legs were dragged around the lake and moved quickly. He finally got out of his head, but he screamed in despair and pain. Looking at this scene, the audience in the theater felt cold all over, but the girl on the shore smiled. She became even happier, thinking that her father was still making her happy, and said in a childish voice:

"Come on daddy!"

"Come on daddy!"

With his back turned to his father, a large amount of blood gurgled out of his body, completely dyeing the green lake in the center blood red. At this time, the girl pointed at the lake and smiled very happily: "Fool, fool."

"Chang Sheng, what are you doing here?"

A woman came from behind: "Where is your father?"

At this time, the lake has calmed down, and the bright red color has gradually faded, but the audience is a little numb. Unexpectedly, Zhou Xingchi's new movie did not make everyone laugh at the beginning, but scared everyone, especially the father died in the river, the childish But her daughter smiled very innocently and happily, which made people feel indescribable.

Xu Wenjing raised her eyebrows.

The plot of this first scene is indeed weird, a bit like a dark fairy tale. The so-called paradise with beautiful mountains and clear waters is only superficial, which fits the dark background of Journey to the West: "It's a bit interesting."

Xu Wenjing nodded.

When the camera turned, it was already at the funeral of Chang Sheng's father. A Taoist priest who looked like an immortal rowed a boat into the water, recited Taoist mantras, and finally exploded a giant-looking monster in the river. fish!

"He is indeed a monster!"

The Taoist priest spoke and flicked his whisk.

The villagers worked together to pull the strange fish to the shore and thanked the Taoist priest profusely. The village chief brought two baskets. The left basket was filled with silver and the right basket was filled with salted fish. Seeing this, the Taoist smiled freely: "A Taoist monk." , To help the world, I will not accept any gift that is too precious. "

This Taoist priest is an expert!

The audience thought this, but the next moment there was a series of bursts of laughter in the theater. The Taoist priest decisively picked up the basket full of silver and stuffed the salted fish back into the village chief's arms: "Such a precious gift. , I won’t want it.”

Xia Yu and Zhang Suining were also happy.

Luo Xun didn't laugh. After all, he was the one who made up the plot. According to Zhou Xingchi's original idea, a wretched Taoist priest was chosen to play the role. The original version did use a wretched actor, but Luo Xun said that the character in this movie looked There are too many ugly actors, and we need to find some good-looking ones to enrich them. We might as well let a Taoist priest who looks like a fairy to play this role. The contrast will be more obvious, so Zhou Xingchi adopted Luo Xun's suggestion.

The effect is okay.

And amidst the laughter of everyone in the theater, a slightly helpless and distressed voice suddenly sounded, and Luo Xun's face appeared in the camera: "You are all wrong, this fish is not a monster!"

The audience perked up.

It's the protagonist's turn!
