director of the millennium

Chapter 797: The premiere was a great success

The premiere of "Time Raiders" was very successful, especially when Wu Yuan made a surprise cameo appearance in the movie, which made many people laugh out loud.

In fact, this easter egg itself is not that novel. It was just a Haidilao delivery guy helping to pull noodles on the spot, and then accidentally threw the noodles on the male protagonist's head.

If someone else played this role, unless it was someone with a naturally funny look (yes, I'm talking about Xu Guangtou), the joke would actually be very awkward.

But the guest star is Wu Yuan. When you see Wu Yuan, a famous director who is also a handsome director, playing this easter egg, the contrast between their real identities is enough to satisfy the needs of the "easter egg".

At least the guests who attended the premiere were all laughing happily. I believe that when the film is released on a large scale, ordinary audiences and fans will also be surprised when they see this Easter egg.

Apart from the Easter eggs, the story of this movie itself is excellent enough!

Romance movies have always been a mixture of girlish hearts and tear-jerking elements, and this movie "Time Raiders" has achieved this.

The director's narrative skills, the excellent acting skills and CP sense of the two leading actors, unfold the themes they really want to express layer by layer, allowing the audience to believe in the story.

The main person to be praised was Lei Jiayin, who played a young boy at the "advanced age" of 35, but still outshined all the idol male stars, and his acting skills were as brilliant as if he had had plastic surgery.

Among middle-aged male actors, many are trapped in the character settings brought about by their own temperament.

For example, Chen Daoming always has an intellectual temperament no matter what role he plays. Wu Xiubo looks decent and good-tempered, so he always plays technical and professional middle-class people, such as doctors and lawyers. Jin Dong has the face of an old cadre, so he always plays old cadres.

The range of roles they play is relatively narrow, and if it exceeds this setting, it will easily break the show.

In comparison, Lei Jiayin is like an acting stem cell. His own temperament is very vague and will not trigger associations with the character's background. At the same time, he has excellent acting skills. He can jump between different role types through micro-expressions and lines. He can play the role of a loser or an elite, and he is also very good at playing big-head jokes.

A man with great acting skills who can perform the tricks of the traffic era quite well, in this era when there is a lack of young middle-aged film actors, he is considered one of the few middle-aged film actors who can make a living by acting.

"Clap clap clap clap..."

As the end credits began to play, uniform applause broke out in the huge cinema, mixed with a few cheerful whistles.

"nice!"

“A very interesting movie!”

“Excellent acting!”

"There were laughter and tears, and the performance was very good!"

All kinds of praise came from the back row. Lei Jiayin, who had been nervous and clenched his fists, finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment and collapsed back on the backrest.

Unlike Liu Yifei who has experienced countless big scenes, Lei Datou is also a seasoned actor who has acted in many movies and starred in "The Golden Robbery". However, for him, a movie like "Time Raiders" co-starring with "international first-line actresses" is also an adventure that can be called a class leap.

If he succeeds, he will become a top movie actor in the circle.

If the movie fails, the public will definitely not attribute the failure to Liu Yifei, but will only denounce him as the leading actor, believing that it was the poor performance of the leading actor that led to the failure of the movie.

Because the story itself is very good, at least it is far beyond the passing line in commercial films. And Liu Yifei's acting skills are not problematic, or even if there are problems, because she has a director husband and has a brilliant and successful experience, the public will not think she has problems.

So for Liu Yifei, "Time Raiders" is just an interesting movie, and whether it succeeds or fails has little impact on her.

But for Lei Jiayin, this movie can only succeed, not fail!

All this pressure has been weighing on his heart all along, but he just covers it up with his cheerful appearance.

It was not until this moment, after the great success of the premiere of "Time Raiders", that I really let go of most of the pressure, and the smile on my face became more relaxed.

Of course, the success and good reputation of the premiere does not mean that the public release will be successful. There are too many examples of films that have good premiere reputation but poor box office performance after large-scale release. Now is not the time to relax completely and open champagne at halftime.

Liu Yifei, who has acted in more movies, understood this better. She smiled and clapped, with almost no mood swings. She just turned her head and whispered to Wu Yuan: "How is it, not bad?"

"Not bad." Wu Yuan nodded with a smile, as if he knew what Liu Yifei was thinking, and said affirmatively: "This kind of humorous and light-hearted romantic comedy is very popular in the market."

"Don't worry, the box office will definitely be good."

After receiving Wu Yuan's affirmation, Liu Yifei became more confident, and her eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled: "There are still three days before the release. I am really looking forward to it!"

After the premiere of "Time Raiders" in Beijing, the Internet exploded on the same day.

Nearly a hundred movie celebrities from platforms such as Weibo, Bilibili, and Douyin who were invited to participate in the premiere cheered for "Time Raiders" in their channels, columns, and videos.

On the one hand, the producer, that is, Guangying Times, did put in the money.

On the other hand, this movie is really good. At least among the mainland movies this year, it can be regarded as a commercial film that is eye-catching.

Whether a movie is good or not also depends on the contrast with its peers.

The mainland film market performed very well this year, with "Dying to Survive" having a box office of over 30 billion yuan, and "Detective Chinatown 33" continuing to perform well, with a sequel of 2 billion yuan at the box office.

There is also the crazy "Operation Red Sea", which has booked 36.51 billion yuan and is scheduled to be the box office champion in mainland China.

In terms of comedy, Happy Twist's "The Richest Man in Xihong City" continued the success of "Charlotte's Troubles" and raked in 28 billion yuan in the mainland box office (it is worth mentioning that the actress who was strongly supported by Taiwanese investors in this time and space "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was not played by Ma Li. After all, the Happy Twist in this life is backed by the Light and Shadow Era.)
However, in the field of romance films, there have not been any outstanding Chinese-language films. The last film that triggered a viewing craze was "Ex-Files 12", which was released in December last year.

Under such circumstances, mainland movie fans really need a good romance film to fill the gap in movie-watching this year.

After all, love is the eternal topic of human beings!
Under such circumstances, after the successful premiere of "Time Raiders" and the previews that began one after another, which all received good responses, a large number of mainland movie fans and audiences have paid close attention to and are looking forward to this movie.

Two days passed by in a flash.

"Time Travel Together", which has been the hot search on popular platforms such as Douyin and Weibo for two days, will also be released nationwide on December 2! (End of this chapter)
