Chapter 565 "La La Land" Premiere

After discussions between Li Mu and Adam Ferguson, "The Revenant" was officially confirmed to be released in January 2016.

But before that, in December, a wave of small-scale screenings will be held in order to compete for the Oscars.

Leonardo immediately nodded and confirmed. This time he was fully prepared for the Oscar in half a year.

Here in China, on August 8, the premiere of "La La Land" has quietly arrived.

It's a pity that the weather is not good. This day is a Wednesday, and Chinese Valentine's Day is only a Thursday, which is a bit regretful. If this festival is held on the weekend, it will definitely be a packed week for movies.

However, the power of "Chinese Valentine's Day" movies should never be underestimated. This year, there are many films targeting the "Chinese Valentine's Day" movie. In addition to the currently released sports romance film "Broken Wind" and the time-travel film "New Step by Step", there are also There is a wave of romance films being released: "Bride Wars", "City in Love" and "Leave Me Alone".
As far as the cast is concerned, it is quite attractive, including: Bai Baihe, Angelababy, Jing Boran, Ni Ni, Yang Mi. A good show of "falling in love and killing each other" is staged on the big screen.

However, the most attractive one in the entire Chinese Valentine's Day schedule is Mengying Media's "La La Land".

The first clues can be seen at the premiere that day. Fans on both sides have already gathered together and came early to grab a good seat.

Just because everyone knows about Mengying Media, especially Li Mu's movies, the premiere lineup is not much worse than that of the film festival. While the latter requires tickets, the former only needs to reserve a good seat in advance.

Of course, the happiest people were those who got tickets to the premiere that day.

Li Mu was also extra cautious today. After all, Liu Yifei was still pregnant.

For today's premiere outfit, Liu Yifei directly put on the yellow skirt from "La La Land", which was particularly eye-catching, but she didn't wear any earrings, but it looked more elegant.

The two stepped onto the red carpet, followed closely by the cheers of fans on both sides.

Huang Bo and others were walking behind.

"Yifei, you are much more popular than me."

When Li Mu, Liu Yifei, Huang Bo and others stopped to wave to the audience, Huang Bo scanned the fans on both sides, which was a shock.

"No, Brother Bo, I can't compare to you. The box office of your movies is so high that even the movie fans can't count it."

Liu Yifei covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Don't flatter me? I don't have as much as you!"

Huang Bo waved his hand.

"Okay, what are you two bragging about with this little box office!"

Li Mu looked forward and said calmly.

".It's still Director Li, I'm willing to give in!"

Huang Bo bowed his hand!

Liu Yifei burst out laughing.

"Sissi, why don't you go in and take a rest?"

Xing Aina and Ning Hao arrived together and asked slightly surprised.

Li Mu also realized this and asked Liu Yifei to sit and rest in the hall. It was enough for him and Huang Bo to be here.

"How about it, the baby is healthy."

As soon as Xing Aina and Liu Yifei met, they talked about pregnant women. Ning Hao turned around and started chatting with some acquaintances.

Zhang Yimou and Tian Zhuangzhuang arrived at the same time, and it felt like they had made an appointment in advance.

"Hahaha, we have to watch the Palme d'Or movie."

Zhang Yimou said with a smile, and then went with Tian Zhuangzhuang.

Brother Chen Kai arrived a little later and attended with Chen Hong.

"Director Li, I don't see Yifei. Are you not here today?"

Chen Hong looked around and saw no sign of Liu Yifei. "She's resting in there!"

"Oh! Yes, it should be."

Subsequently, batches of guests arrived, including producers and theaters such as China Film, New Film Alliance, SMG, Enlight, Wanda, Bona, and Jinyi.

There are also many first- and second-tier stars.

As a new Palme d'Or film in China, almost all the guests present were well-known in the industry.

Everyone wants to see what this movie that won two Cannes awards is like.

Although it is the premiere, all the major entertainment reports in the industry are about "La La Land".

This kind of almost crushing traffic made the producers of romantic films in the same period smile bitterly, but they also hope that "La La Land" can open up the situation, so that the first brother will be full of food, and will eventually give the second brother and the third brother Brother, drink some soup. As for the rest, it will naturally fall into the dust.

But that's what movies are.

If it was really a good investment, the market value of the industry would not be what it is today.

The hall of more than a thousand people was overcrowded, and everyone turned their attention to the people on the main stage, especially Li Mu and Liu Yifei.

While chatting and laughing, the media still wanted to ask more questions. Unfortunately, the time for the current media Q&A session has expired, and the remaining time has to be given to "La La Land".

As the green dragon logo slowly rises, the subtitles follow.

Li Mu was already paying tribute to the history of film development before the film even started.

From the black and white color 1.33:1 of the film's birth period, it gradually expanded to 2.55:1 wide screen, and the picture changed to color.

People who don't know how to do it will completely ignore this little easter egg, but Zhang Yimou and others secretly took note of it.

A film critic also silently wrote this paragraph, and then added that this is a love letter to the movie.
At the beginning of the film, the invited camera slowly descended from the bright sky of Shanghai.

Then a row of overcrowded traffic blocked the highway, each car listening to different music in a chaotic mess.

Until an unexpected piano prelude sounded, and the clear voice of the young girl in yellow began the first song and dance of the film.

"Thinking back to that year, I saw him staying in Shanghai, when we were 17 years old."

The refreshing melody captured the ears of the audience from the beginning.

It is obviously night now, but everyone feels like the sun is shining brightly in the morning.

It's as if the happiness level has been raised to a higher level.

Then the camera didn't cut away at all, and it seemed like the entire section of the highway was in one shot.

"It's a little flawed, but it's a really cool show off!"

"Look at the orderly movement of the actors and the dance, and the smoothness of the shots. Not many people in China can do this."

Zhang Yimou and Tian Zhuangzhuang analyzed each other in a low voice.

Brother Chen Kai looked at the scenes in the movie seriously without blinking.

From this stage, everyone has already felt the specialness of the movie.

“Because the sun is rising and it’s another sunny day!!”

When all the dancers stood on the roof of the highway, the panoramic screen shot covered the entire highway, showing a spectacular scene.

The rest of the song fell heavily and came to an abrupt end.

"La La Land", the title of the film appears, echoing in the film with the charm of the song.
