The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 92 The habit of watching movies needs to be cultivated
Ariana took her boyfriend's arm and looked for their seats. Half of the 500-seat auditorium was occupied, and most of the best viewing seats in the middle were filled. His seat was just In the middle, the two sat down in their seats along the narrow aisle.

Before the movie started, there was a buzz of conversation in the auditorium.

"I didn't expect there to be so many people in this movie?" Boyfriend David looked around in surprise.

There are still people entering the theater one after another, and by the time the film starts, it is estimated that it will be filled to more than two-thirds.

Ariana was also a little surprised: "It feels like there are more people than "Shadow of the Wind." She booked the tickets earlier, and she didn't expect there to be so many people.

"It's normal. After all, it's an Orlando Gold Award-winning film, and Johnson Chen's "Comet" is so famous. As long as the quality of this movie is not inferior to "Comet", the movie ticket will be worth it." Ariana is a movie fan, especially I like thriller, suspense and horror movies, and I also like "Comet". She is the kind of movie fan who has watched it many times in order to clarify the storyline of the relationship between the characters.

"WOW, if it's the same as "Comet", it's really a nightmare." Boyfriend David was a little disdainful.

David is also a movie fan, but he prefers cult movies, and his movie-watching hobbies overlap with that of his girlfriend, but his evaluation of "Comet" is boring, boring.

If his girlfriend hadn't pulled him, he definitely wouldn't have come.

Ariana replied: "That's a pity, it seems that you will never learn to watch movies with your brain in your life."

David was dissatisfied: "A good movie should attract the audience in the first second. If it makes people feel boring, how can it be a good movie? I don't know what kind of ecstasy those people in Orlando were given. Send the award to a Huaguo director, and he is still a young boy who doesn’t seem to have graduated from high school. Did the Huaguo people buy Orlando? The next step may be the Oscar.”

"Don't forget that your favorite "Dimensional Killing" is the award-winning film of the Orlando Gold Award. The previous award-winning films in Orlando are all good." Most of the horror films that Ariana likes in recent years are from the Orlando Film Festival The film was shortlisted, so she still has a lot of trust in the Orlando Film Festival.

"What about "Moon Night Fantasy Talk"? The RB director won the best director award. How boring is this movie? It's like a school youth movie ten years ago. Why don't I watch "The Vampire Diaries"?" David found counterexample.

Ariana was choked, paused for a second and said: "First of all, it is a Korean director, and secondly, I admit that "Moon Night Fantasy Talk" disappointed me a bit, but he is just a bit old-fashioned, not as you said. So boring."

David snorted: "That's what I said that the Orlando Film Festival has gone crazy. It even allowed two Asians to win awards. Since the Orlando Film Festival started to please Asians, it has lost its previous flavor." Previously The Orlando Film Festival is a feast for cult films.

Ariana didn't want to entangle her anymore: "Anyway, I believe in Johnson, and his movies won't disappoint me."

"Johnson...as if he is your boyfriend." David curled his lips.

The sudden extinguishing of the lights ended the couple's bickering.

……

Wang Zhen took a dozen of his classmates and friends into the movie theater in a hurry, talking about news related to the movie while walking.

"This film has been screened in more than 700 theaters since its opening. Few films from other countries and regions have opened more theaters than "Fatal Identity" in recent years."

"Didn't you read it? Why are you still here this time?" A companion asked in confusion.

Wang Zhen, who was interrupted, glanced at his companion dissatisfied: "Second swipe, and it can also contribute to the box office. Let's make a deal first. If you all think it's good after watching it, we'll do it again."

When "Comet" first aired on the Netflix platform, Wang Zhen was the first group of overseas students who paid attention to "Comet" and Chen Jingxing. The translation was finally adopted by Netflix.

In a sense, he can be regarded as Chen Jingxing's ashes. After hearing that Chen Jingxing's second film was shortlisted for the Orlando Film Festival, he went to Orlando himself to watch "Fatal Identity" at the Orlando Film Festival. show.

After finally waiting for the film's release, Wang Zhen invited his classmates and friends to contribute to the box office.

Because there are no long holidays in the United States in January and February, most international students will not go home even during the Spring Festival. I usually have to wait until spring break to go home, usually until mid-March.

Therefore, Wang Zhen is also one of the few foreign students who has watched "Fatal Identity". For the past two months, he has tried his best to suppress himself from spoilers. Of course, most of the foreign students go to the domestic Internet. It is also inevitable.

Wang Zhen looked at the posters of Huaguo faces displayed in the theater, and felt a little excited in his heart. He took out his mobile phone and took a photo, which he planned to send to a forum mainly composed of Chinese and foreign students.

"Look at you, it's not like you haven't seen posters of Huaguo movies in movie theaters."

Wang Zhen retorted: "They are all in Chinese movie theaters, showing domestic movies every day, can that be the same? This is AMC's largest theater in Los Angeles." After finishing speaking, he sighed: "I hope to see more and more movies. Chinese domestic films appear here."

A classmate was also a little worried: "Then at least the box office will be decent, at least let the distribution company recover the cost, otherwise this is a one-shot deal."

"I heard that the copyright of this movie was sold for 1300 million yuan? Then the box office must be at least 3000 million US dollars. I feel that more than 700 museums are a bit small."

Wang Zhen led his companions to find their seats, and seemed confident about other people's concerns: "What's wrong with the 700 halls? You see, there are so many people here, the attendance rate must be good, and there will be more halls, and there is also a European market." Woolen cloth."

After the credits were over and the movie just started, Wang Zhen frowned.

"Why is it dubbing?"

"It's so awkward."

Wang Zhen and his classmates complained softly. In the past, the domestic movies watched in Chinese cinemas only had English subtitles, and some even didn’t even have English subtitles.

"It turned out to be a dubbing?"

Guo Fan, who was sitting next to Chen Jingxing, was also a little surprised, but he quickly realized that, after all, imported movies released in China usually watch the original Mandarin subtitles, and the national distribution version is usually for children to watch by default.

North American audiences must still be used to watching dubbing.

Ning Hao sighed, and said softly: "Actually, it wasn't dubbed before. From "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to "Fearless", when it was released in North America, most of the shows only had English subtitles."

The other directors were silent.

After all, habits need to be cultivated.
