Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 298 "Source Code" Premiere

Zhang Yuanjun's follow-up schedule has been communicated with the "Inception" crew in advance. His request for leave to return to China will not delay his scheduled filming plan.

But time is really tight.

Zhang Yuanjun took off from San Francisco and landed in Shanghai at 5 pm Beijing time. He didn't even return to the hotel. He was taken directly from the airport to the premiere venue.

Even the makeup was put on in the car.

"How many people are here today?" Zhang Yuanjun asked in the car.

"Everyone who could come came. Mr. Ren spent more than 700 million on this premiere."

"I'm so willing to take the plunge." Zhang Yuanjun smiled.

"After all, science fiction films co-produced by China and the United States are also taken seriously by the higher authorities."

Not long after, the car drove to the Magic City Cinema. Because Zhang Yuanjun arrived too late, the red carpet was not left. Under the protection of security personnel, Zhang Yuanjun entered the cinema through another passage.

"I thought you couldn't make it." Xiao Song Jia said as soon as she saw him.

"I almost missed it."

"How is it in the United States?" Feng Yuanzheng asked him.

"pretty good."

"Yifei didn't come back with you?"

"She still has something to play and can't leave." Zhang Yuanjun said.

After everyone was chatting in the background for a few minutes, they heard the host at the front desk shouting:
“Now, let’s welcome the creators of Source Code.

"Teacher Feng Yuanzheng."

"Yu Nan."

"Song Jia."

"Wang Jianxiong, the Chinese special effects director of "Source Code"."

"The chief producer of "Source Code", Mr. Ren Zhonglun."

"Director Wu Ershan and our leading actor Zhang Yuanjun."

Fans of Zhang Yuanjun shouted in the field.

It is said that the director is the leading actor in a film, but unfortunately, Zhang Yuanjun is the leading actor who handles the box office. He is the most powerful in the whole group, not to mention he is the boss of the entire movie, so he is ranked behind the new director Wu Ershan. It was natural to appear, even Wu Ershan had no objection.

It is true that "Source Code" has too few leading actors, only 4, which cannot support the scene. Otherwise, the special effects director and Ren Zhonglun would not be brought on stage.

The live pre-screening interaction was very interesting.

Wu Ershan accused the two protagonists of stealing props at the scene:

"When we were filming the scene on the train, there were snacks such as melon seeds and peanut drinks on the train. But when we first started shooting, the filming was very slow and often NG. Then you can see Yuanjun and Song Jia still sitting there chatting and eating us. props."

This remark made the entire audience and guests burst into laughter.

Wu Ershan continued: "Sometimes NG takes a long time to prepare, and they would like to open a bottle of wine on the spot and drink and chat."

"Hahahaha!"

The host asked the hero and heroine at the right time: "How do the snacks of the crew taste?"

Zhang Yuanjun motioned to Song Jia and said, "It's okay. I want to praise the taste of our prop master. It's really good. The snacks we bought taste pretty good, especially the buttered peanuts. Both Yuanjun and I like to eat them." Zhang Yuanjun smiled and said: "Yes, those peanuts are quite delicious. After work every day, I would secretly take some back, which caused our props teacher to find the director and say that I bought enough for a week, but why were they gone in three days? Later I found out that it was Actors steal snacks to eat.”

Song Jia added: "Sometimes when I see our props on the side and their expressions are not good, I know that I have eaten too much, so I stop eating. When the filming officially started, the director said again, you eat, you eat. "

This is just an interesting story about the crew and cannot be published online.

The entire pre-screening sharing lasted for 40 minutes. After answering countless questions from reporters, the main creators were finally able to sit back in the audience and watch the movie quietly.

Although Zhang Yuanjun didn't have to suffer from jet lag, the 13-hour long-distance flight and the fact that he had to work as soon as he landed made him feel tired the moment he sat back on stage.

Xiao Zhao, who was sitting behind him, said, "I'll pour you a cup of coffee."

"Well, put some sugar, I want something sweet now."

"You still eat sweets, are you going to take pictures when you get back?" He said so, but Xiao Zhao still poured him a cup of coffee with sugar.

The 94-minute film was screened quickly, the audience burst into warm applause, and the creators stood on the stage again.

First, the celebrity guest spoke.

Huang Bo was the first to speak: "It's really good. I'm very happy to see our Chinese science fiction story on the big screen. There is one thing, why is the male protagonist still alive in the end? Didn't he die in an explosion? I'm a little bit concerned about this. I do not understand."

The host said: "We will answer this question later. Can we ask other guests to speak first?"

Huang Xiaoming took the microphone and said with a smile: "I like this story very much. I am actually a science fiction fan myself. If you have such a film, you can contact me."

The whole place burst into laughter.

Huang Xiaoming continued: "I'm just kidding. However, "Source Code" was indeed well shot and acted well. From the finished film, you can see the dedication of the entire crew. The love scene in it is also very touching. I wish "Source Code" a great success. "

Zhang Ziyi, who is about to release "Perfect", also came to the scene: "I am very surprised, really, I really didn't expect that we can also make such a good-looking science fiction movie. Although it is not the kind of space war, I think it is It's a very good start. Although the set is only 90 minutes long, the pace is tight, the narrative is not messy at all, and the information given to the audience is sufficient. I am very grateful to Director Wu Ershan, and our teachers Zhang Yuanjun and Song Jia for their guidance. It's very good to be in a movie like this, I like it very much."

Later, directors and producers such as Lu Chuan and Shi Nansheng also praised "Source Code" as "well-made", "full of sincerity" and "very passionate".

The host guided the topic: "Huang Bo just asked a question, why is the protagonist still alive in the end? Didn't Wu Fangfei press the button and the protagonist died? How could Wu Fangfei still receive the email sent to her by the protagonist? I believe this That’s what a lot of viewers want to know.”

This question should be answered by director Wu Ershan: "What we use here is the concept of parallel universes. Zhao Wenhua survived in the end, living in a parallel universe of time and space, not the universe of Wu Fangfei and Dr. Liu Qi."

"Then why can Wu Fangfei still receive emails?"

Wu Ershan smiled slyly and said: "I didn't say that the Wu Fangfei who received the text message was the Wu Fangfei who sent Zhao Wenhua into the source code world."

The host suddenly realized: "In other words, all the scenes after that kiss took place in the parallel universe, not the previous real universe?"

Wuershan gave an affirmative answer: "Yes."

The host led the applause: "A very exciting theory. I would like to ask who came up with such a good idea?"

Zhang Yuanjun did not name himself as a screenwriter, but Wu Ershan pushed the screenwriter out, saying that parallel universes are a very classic theory and have been written in many science fiction novels. The crew of "Source Code" only used a little bit at the end.

At the dinner after the premiere, Zhang Yuanjun met Wen Rujing and Tang Yan.

The two told him about starring in "Snow Leopard", and Zhang Yuanjun had no objection. This was the producer's intention, and he respected it.

"I also watched "Sword and Sword 3". This drama is really popular." Zhang Yuanjun also praised Tang Yan.

Tang Yan was very happy that Zhang Yuanjun said this.

"Call me over there and I'll come over. You can do whatever you want." After saying that, Zhang Yuanjun left.
