The road to becoming a movie star from the villain

Chapter 404 The Movie That Hits the Internet!
The people watching the movie fell into madness.

The premiere of "The Shawshank Redemption" ended, and netizens across China fell into heated discussions.

"It's so pretty!"

"It's really comfortable to watch, it's so touching!"

"There is still such a movie! I want to watch it again!"

"Haha, this movie is invincible, it is definitely a classic!"

Many people are still questioning after seeing the uproar caused on the Internet.

"Who can tell me what this movie is about that makes you so excited?"

"I've heard people say it's a jailbreak, is it exciting?"

"Huh, this movie can't be described in words, it is definitely a rare and good movie."

Netizens are discussing with each other.

At the same time, the screening rate of "The Shawshank Redemption" in cinemas has increased significantly, and the score has also stabilized at an extremely rare 9.5 points.

That's it, movie tickets for this movie are still hard to come by.

"I'm sorry everyone, today's show of "The Shawshank Redemption" has been sold out, please don't wait in line."

In the movie theater, the conductor looked at the long queue and could only shout helplessly.

Hearing the conductor's words, the people queuing outside suddenly sighed in frustration.

"Is there a mistake? There will be no tickets here?"

"With a 55% screening rate, can't you buy a ticket?"

"Did you swallow it yourself, or did you play tricks with the scalpers!"

"Is there any tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow? Give me one!"

"Yes, I want a few tickets for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Such scenes were staged simultaneously in numerous movie theaters in the vast land of China.

There has never been a movie in Huaxia's history that can drive movie fans so crazy.

It didn't take long for "The Shawshank Redemption" to break the box office records of movies one after another.

Because this movie lasts for two and a half hours, the ticket price is about 40-60 yuan.

But only at noon, the ticket price of scalpers has already sold to 200 yuan a piece, and there is no market even if there is a price.

People are snapping up tickets like crazy.

It is rare for movie theaters to encounter scalpers who resell movie tickets, and many people even go to scalpers to buy tickets.

One day after the film was released, "The Shawshank Redemption" was undoubtedly on the cover of various popular headline websites.

Key words such as "a ticket is hard to find", "explosive", and "film history classics" have repeatedly caught the eye.

The major theaters urgently adjusted the number of films scheduled, but even so they could not meet the needs of the audience.

In the end, because there were no blockbuster movies released during the same period, several theater chains across the country directly increased the screening rate of "The Shawshank Redemption" to a terrifying 90%!

Theater chains adjust their screening rate naturally to make more money. If the film is good and the audience is willing to watch it, they will show more shows.

That's it, the sales data of major theaters is also exploding.

Moreover, the attendance rate is extremely high, and the basic venues are full.

This is a movie that makes people want to watch it again after seeing it.

Hong Chen seemed to have expected this situation a long time ago, looking at the comments on the Internet, he was overjoyed.

"It's finally released." He said happily.

Yan Yileng looked at Hong Chen with adoration in his eyes.

No wonder Hong Chen is so confident, it turns out this movie is such a classic!
However, some people are happy and some are sad.

At this moment, the heads of the several entertainment companies that have joined together are all sad.

They originally wanted to use this opportunity to break the stalemate that Hong Chen's status far surpassed other artists, but now "The Shawshank Redemption" has achieved such a result.

How does this play?
How to fight?

Can this form on the Internet still be hacked?

Those keyboard warriors also shut their mouths at this moment, and occasionally there were a few cynical voices, but in front of tens of millions of netizens, these voices were nothing more than throwing a stone into the sea, not even splashing the waves.

In addition, there are several big movies, which were expected to be released in the near future.

Seeing the popularity of "The Shawshank Redemption" at this time, they all chose to withdraw the file.

Many things are most afraid of comparison. Now that "The Shawshank Redemption" has become so popular, if it has not been withdrawn, is it possible to be cannon fodder?

People are getting more and more attention to this movie.

This is a very deep story.

In Shawshank Prison, the towering walls, dark environment, harsh management, and violent prison bullies beat and devour people's souls all the time.

Shawshank is such a world without humanity and hope.

Just like a pool of stagnant water, the prisoners lived day after day without any change.

As the warden said in the movie: "Give your spirit to God, and your body to me."

But Hong Chen was different.

Hong Chen redeemed not only himself.

He remodeled the library, helped many prisoners take high school diplomas, and played the natural sounds of German sopranos for prisoners, making them feel a moment of freedom and hope.

Besides, Hong Chen's biggest change is Freeman.

Freeman's first line was to warn Hong Chen: "Hope is dangerous, many people will go crazy because of him."

At the end of the movie, Freeman said: "Hope is really a beautiful thing."

While Hong Chen redeemed his own freedom, he also redeemed Freeman's withered heart.

In the end, the two embrace each other by the blue sea, which actually has another meaning.

That is more perfect than self-salvation, and there is an additional redemption for others.

Various film critics also praised the film online, and everyone threatened to blow it up!

The explanations of the film critics are very profound, so all of a sudden, netizens are looking for explanations and recommending videos of "The Shawshank Redemption".

Ma Ming runs a Douyin account called "Ma Ming Watches Movies" on Douyin. With his sharp and humorous commentary and pertinent movie reviews, he has more than 800 million fans, and he can be regarded as a big shot.

In the past, when he posted a commentary video, the number of likes was only about 10,000+, and the maximum was no more than 43.

But as soon as the commentary of "The Shawshank Redemption" was finished, it didn't take long for the number of likes to exceed 100 million.

He put it this way:
"The Shawshank Redemption is not just a prison story. What is a prison? Prison is society."

"It highly condenses the difficulties faced by people in the prison, and then through Hong Chen's story, it inspires people to break free from the shackles of life and gives people hope."

Not only him, many well-known big Vs are commenting on this movie.

Because there's so much depth to dig into.

Many of China's major directors, from commercial directors to literary film directors, have publicly expressed their appreciation for this movie.

Zhang Mouzi: "This will undoubtedly be a classic in the history of Chinese film!"

Chen Kaige: "I can't find any flaws in every aspect. After watching it, it makes people have endless aftertaste. It's a good movie."

Ang Lee: "It is no longer possible to simply define this movie in terms of commerciality or artistry. "Shawshank's Redemption" is completely perfect in both aspects."

Wang Jiawei: "I have made many films, and I like my films very much, but I never thought that my favorite film would be this one. It is unsurpassed in my heart."

After that, "Shawshank's Redemption" has completed an achievement that almost no one can match:
It became the first and only Douban movie to break through 100 million ratings.

The final score of millions of people is 9.6 points.

A movie with a score of 9.6, and in the long years since then, this score has not changed.

The second highest scorer is "Farewell My Concubine", with 72 scorers and 9.5 points.

In other words, "The Shawshank Redemption" touched the most people in the history of Chinese film and received the highest evaluation.

As for the news that was unfavorable to Hong Chen some time ago, it has disappeared without a trace at this moment.

Hong Chen is now in the spotlight for a while, setting off a wave of terror in the Huaxia market.

This movie is much more than that.
