Chapter 1263 Jiangbei's Pressure and Anxiety

There are a lot of discussions about the movie online at this time.

After all, tomorrow is National Day, and there are a total of nine movies released.

"I have already bought tickets for "A Chinese Odyssey Part Two: Pandora's Box" for tomorrow morning. Brothers, let me go and help you see if this movie is good (dog head)."

"This time, Mr. Tan Yue's movie is scheduled to be released on National Day. I must go and see it."

"This is Jiang Bei's first time making a movie. I've really liked watching his TV series before, so I'm definitely going to go and support him."

"I didn't expect this National Day movie season to be so exciting. I'm here to join in the fun. Can anyone recommend a movie worth watching?"

"I'm going to watch the movie Death Fight. I'm a boxer and I'm looking forward to it."

“It has to be ‘A Chinese Odyssey Part One: Pandora’s Box’!”

The one that appeared the most times in the comment section was naturally "A Chinese Odyssey Part One - Pandora's Box".

With nine movies released at the same time, who will be the box office champion has naturally become the focus of everyone's discussion.

"No need to think too much, it must be Teacher Tan Yue's "A Chinese Odyssey Part One - Pandora's Box"."

"Why can't my director Jiang Bei's "A Sky Full of Stars" compete for it?"

"If we only look at the popularity before the release, it must be "A Chinese Odyssey Part Two: Pandora's Box". After all, Tan Yue's movies have never disappointed the audience and have always maintained a very high level. But I am still looking forward to a dark horse. I wonder if Jiangbei's movie can become a dark horse?"

"When it comes to box office champions, I always choose Tan Yue if there is one, and it doesn't matter if there is no Tan Yue."

"The competition during this National Day holiday is quite fierce. I think anything can happen. Tan Yue may not necessarily be the box office champion."

The online discussion continues.

……

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Magic City.

"What time is the ticket?"

"Nine o'clock." Jiang Bei put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm full."

The wife frowned and said, "I see you didn't eat much, are you full already?"

Jiang Bei nodded without saying anything and opened the Weibo on his phone.

As the National Day approached, he became more and more anxious.

The pressure brought by Tan Yue made him unable to sleep and eat well.

"Since you are so worried, why do you still buy tickets for Tan Yue's movie? Isn't this contributing to the box office results?"

Facing his wife's doubts, Jiang Bei said, "The tickets for the two of us together are less than 100 yuan. Even if we contribute, it's not even a drop in the bucket. This time we went to see Tan Yue's movie just to see the quality of his movie."

The wife nodded and said, "Know yourself and know your enemy."

Jiang Bei sighed and said, "I want to see if I still have a chance of winning."

  The wife stood up and started to clean up the dishes.

Jiang Bei continued to watch the promotion of his movie.

Since the publicity plan was adjusted, he has done more publicity work and traveled to many places.

The publicity plan before the movie’s release has been completed, and the next step is to see how it performs at the box office.

Looking at the situation online, Jiang Bei scratched his head.

Although he did a lot of promotion for his own movie, its popularity still cannot be compared with "A Chinese Odyssey Part One: Pandora's Box".

I feel helpless but there is nothing I can do.

Fortunately, this is his first transition into making movies, so he has received quite a lot of attention online.

More than an hour later, Jiang Bei and his wife drove to the cinema.

Looking at the traffic on the road, I feel like there will be a lot of people.

Sure enough, after the two arrived at the mall, they saw that the situation in the cinema could only be described as crowded.

It is no exaggeration to say that the cinema was already full of people and many people were waiting outside.

Fortunately, the automatic ticket machine was just outside. Jiang Bei asked his wife to find a place to rest, and he went to queue up for the ticket alone.

“I wonder if “A Sky Full of Stars” is good?”

The conversation between a young couple in front caught Jiang Bei's attention.

He was looking down at his phone, but listening to their conversation with his ears perked up.

The boy said, "I'm not sure, but the trailer looks pretty good."

"Jiangbei's previous TV series were very well made, and I think this movie should be good."

“You’ll see it soon.”

Jiang Bei was naturally very happy to hear someone mention his movie, and said to himself: "Don't worry, you can watch it, it will definitely be exciting."

The huge cinema was very lively, with many people talking about movies.

After Jiang Bei got the tickets, he and his wife queued up to enter the cinema.

The seats for two people are pretty good, in the best viewing area.

"What are you looking at?" asked the wife.

Jiang Bei retracted his gaze and said, "Let me see if the seat is full?"

"It will definitely be full. I see all the shows today are full."

Jiang Bei nodded slightly, his eyes full of envy, thinking to himself: "I wish my movie could be like this."

The noise heard by the audience gradually became quieter as the lights dimmed.

After a few minutes of advertising, a logo first lit up, followed by the logo of Brilliant Entertainment.

"here we go."

After a quiet discussion, the entire theater fell completely silent, and A Chinese Odyssey Part Two: Pandora's Box began to play.

Jiang Bei calmed down and looked at it carefully.

The movie begins with Sun Wukong and Bull Demon King trying to murder Tang Monk. Upon hearing the news, Guanyin Bodhisattva comes and suppresses Sun Wukong. Tang Sanzang is compassionate and is willing to exchange his life for his. Guanyin then lets Wukong reincarnate as a human five hundred years later to atone for his sins.

One day five hundred years later...

In order to redeem himself, Bodhi Patriarch came to Wuyue Mountain and explained that Zhizunbao was the reincarnation of Sun Wukong, but Zhizunbao didn't believe it. Bai Gujing had an entangled love affair with Sun Wukong five hundred years ago. In order to save Zhizunbao, she injured Chun Sanshi Niang, but was poisoned and injured.

As the movie played, laughter could be heard from time to time throughout the theater.

"What is this?" A girl suddenly covered her eyes with her hands, but her eyes were still visible between her fingers.

At this moment on the big screen, the Axe Gang members were only wearing their underwear, walking in front of Bai Jingjing and Chun Sanshi Niang.

After making sure that the two people couldn't see, Zhizunbao came out first, and with the appearance of the second in command, the theater burst into laughter again.

The person sitting next to Jiang Bei said to his friend, "Ah, I can't keep my eyes anymore."

"Ma Guoliang is too reckless."

Jiang Bei looked at the reactions of the audience around him and felt deeply moved.

He also studied nonsensical comedy, but soon gave it up.

Nonsense comedy is not something he can control.

This kind of movie is mainly a spoof, and no one can do it as naturally as Tan Yue.

After Bai Jingjing and Zhizunbao escaped, Bai's poison took effect and she began to transform into a zombie. Zhizunbao returned to Pansi Cave for Bai.

He threatened Chun to go with him to rescue Bai Jingjing on the grounds that he knew the whereabouts of Tang Monk, but was locked up in a secret room by Chun Sanshi Niang.

Bai Jingjing woke up in the morning and didn't see Zhizunbao. She thought Zhizunbao had left her alone and jumped off a cliff in grief. Fortunately, she was saved by Bull Demon King. Bull Demon King cured Bai Jingjing's illness on the condition that Bai Jingjing would take Bull Demon King to Pansi Cave.

Zhizunbao found the Moonlight Box left by Pansi Daxian in Pansi Cave. At this time, Niu Mowang and Bai Jingjing came to Pansi Cave. Jiang Bei glanced at his wife and saw that she was watching with relish.

Although he hadn't finished the movie yet, he knew he couldn't win.

So in the following time, Jiang Bei also immersed himself in the movie and continued to watch it seriously.

Bai Jingjing thought that the child born to Chun Sanshi Niang and Er Dangjia was hers and Zhizunbao's, so she committed suicide in anger.

In order to save Bai Jingjing, Zhizunbao used the Moonlight Box to turn back time, but it malfunctioned after several attempts and brought him back to five hundred years ago. At this time, Fairy Zixia came towards her.

Three moles were left on the soles of Zhizunbao's feet. When he picked up the magic mirror, he found that he had become Sun Wukong.

As the lights in the theater came on, everyone knew that the movie was over.

"Is this the end?"

"Oh my god, it ended too suddenly. I want to know what happened next."

Everyone stood up and began to leave the cinema.

"how do you feel?"

Jiang Bei pursed his lips and said after a moment: "Looking at the audience's reaction, I feel like I've already lost."

Now that the movie is over, Jiang Bei feels less anxious.

Perhaps he has already realized the gap between himself and Tan Yue's films and knows that he cannot win.

The heart that was hanging in the air is now completely dead.

His wife grabbed Jiang Bei's hand and comforted him, "Don't take it too seriously. After all, this is just your first movie, and Tan Yue is now an internationally renowned director. Naturally, he has a more delicate control over the plot."

Jiang Bei smiled bitterly and said self-deprecatingly: "The gap is not a little bit."

After so many years of preparation, I thought I was fully prepared.

After watching Tan Yue’s movie today, I realized that I still have a lot to learn.

The wife said: "You can look at the problem from a different perspective. This also shows that you have a lot of room for improvement."

She wanted her husband to be more open-minded.

During this period, she naturally noticed Jiang Bei's anxiety, but she had no other way to comfort him.

Jiang Bei looked at his wife seriously, then suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, I want to say that I'm fine. Do you believe me?"

"Really?" The wife held Jiang Bei's hand tightly, somewhat unconvinced.

Jiang Bei nodded heavily and said, "In fact, when I was halfway through the movie, I already knew I would lose. The audience's reaction shows that the movie has been a success."

Although this is my first time as a film director, I have always been a spectator.

He certainly knows what kind of movies the audience likes.

Jiang Bei continued: "This time I came here not only to learn about the film, but most importantly I wanted to learn from it."

Over the years, he has learned about filmmaking through various means.

The most effective way is to learn from the works of some excellent directors.

Tan Yue naturally became the best choice.

"It's great that you think so." said the wife with a smile.

"Let's go back too." Jiang Bei stood up and said, "After I get home, I will stay in seclusion for a few hours and write down all my thoughts about the movie I watched today."

"it is good."

This cinema is very large and many viewers are leaving.

Jiang Bei and his wife followed the crowd carefully, listening to everyone's discussion about the movie.

"It has to be Teacher Tan Yue. This should be a nonsensical movie."

"I almost laughed my ass off just now, especially the part where Zhou Can stepped on the fire. I was so scared that I held my breath."

"Looking at the ending, there should be a second part, but I don't know when it will be released?"

"I guess we'll have to wait for a while, as the filming of this movie has just been completed."

"I haven't seen a movie that made me laugh so hard in a long time."

Jiang Bei and his wife squeezed out of the cinema. Without staying in the mall for too long, they took the elevator directly to the underground parking lot.

He then drove away from the mall.

A cinema in Beijing.

This cinema is one of the larger ones in Beijing and is also packed with people.

The hall is filled with audiences waiting to enter the theater, and those who have finished watching the movie will walk out through another door.

One cinema was very noisy; the screening of "A Chinese Odyssey Part Two: Pandora's Box" had just ended and everyone was queuing to leave.

"Mom, do you think this movie is good?" Chen Ye asked.

We had agreed that the whole family would go to the cinema to watch "A Chinese Odyssey Part Two: Pandora's Box" on the first day of its release.

It happened to be the National Day holiday, so everyone had a day off.

Ye Wen nodded and said nothing.

Chen Jian smiled and replied, "It's great, it's really great. Not only does it continue the funny style of nonsensical comedy, but it also has a deeper meaning."

The family followed the crowd out of the cinema and into the shopping mall.

Ye Wen said, "You were laughing the whole time during the movie. How could it not be fun?"

The person she was talking about was naturally Chen Jian.

"Did I laugh that loudly?"

Ye Wen looked at her daughter and said, "You should stay close to your father from now on. I can't stand him."

Chen Ye burst into laughter.

Chen Jian explained: "I didn't expect this movie to be so good. You can see that not only I was laughing in the whole cinema, but everyone was laughing."

"Before, I was worried that Tan Yue's film would be released in such a short time, would it affect the quality?" Ye Wen stopped joking and said seriously, "After watching it today, I feel completely relieved."

Chen Ye said: "I said that there will be no problem with the quality of our Mr. Tan's movie."

Apart from looking forward to Tan Yue's movies, she has never been worried.

Chen Jian said: "Xiao Yue is now an internationally renowned director. He has worked so hard to achieve what he has today. He will definitely be responsible for the film."

With his understanding of Tan Yue, he felt very relieved.

Ye Wen nodded: "What do you want to eat? Let's eat outside today."

"Are you treating, or is my dad treating?" Chen Ye looked at the two people.

Chen Jian said, "Your mother and I invited you to see a movie today. Is it your turn to treat us to a meal?"

"Your father is right. I think you should treat us to this meal as well."

"you two"

Ye Wen said: "Then you should also find a partner."

"I'll treat you to a meal." Chen Ye said immediately.

The family went to eat chatting and laughing.
