Chapter 740: Premiere of "Dying to Survive"

"Yesterday, the premiere of Detective Chinatown 2 on New Year's Eve was a great success.

Director Chen Sicheng attended the event with Wang Baoqiang, Liu Haoran, Xiao Yang, Liu Chengyu, Shang Yuxian, Wang Xun and Zhang Zifeng, the killer girl from Detective Chinatown 1, marking the first premiere of the Spring Festival blockbuster.

"Produced by Mengying Media, directed by world-renowned director Li Mu, and starring Xu Zheng, "Dying to Survive" premiered today.

According to Maoyan Professional Edition, the current pre-sale box office has exceeded 300 million, far ahead of other movies in the schedule."

"."

The premiere of "Dying to Survive" rented the CPPCC Auditorium, which was considered the most luxurious premiere in recent times.

"Hey, Director Duan."

"I'm sorry, Director Li, a few leaders said they wanted to see the audience's reaction to the movie, so we may have to add three more seats."

Duan Hui, deputy director of the General Office of the State Food and Drug Administration, seemed a little embarrassed over the phone. After all, the position had been arranged before, and this temporary increase had disrupted some arrangements.

"That's fine, that's five places in total."

Li Mu smiled. In fact, the premiere had made a plan in this regard. There would always be a few seats in the front row that could be temporarily adjusted.

"Okay, thank you Director Li."

"."

"What's wrong?" Liu Yifei was tying her hair at the moment, and her beautiful eyes couldn't help but look over.

"It's okay. We'll have more people from the Food and Drug Administration."

Li Mu put on his black coat and gave up the idea of ​​wearing a suit. After all, keeping warm was the most important thing, and in terms of style, this one seemed more handsome.

At least that's what Liu Yifei thought.

"Okay, let's go with black and white. You wear a black coat and I wear white."

Liu Yifei smiled and took Li Mu's big hand, looking at herself and Li Mu in the mirror, her eyes shining with joy.

"Let's go, it's almost time."

Li Mu glanced at the time and reminded.

"Uh-huh!"

As the premiere of a film directed by the country's top director, although it was close to the Chinese New Year, the number of media and industry insiders who came was no less than that of some film festivals.

"Today's mission is heavy again."

"I hope Li Mu can release more movies every year, so that there will be at least several sales a year. You can see many more people than other premieres."

"."

Some media reporters did not forget to chat while filming.

"Look, Ning Hao and Xu Zheng!"

The movie fans who were watching the excitement on the side suddenly shouted excitedly.

"Li Mu and Liu Yifei are here too, Xixi, look here."

"."

Movie fans are quite enthusiastic.

"You two must have chosen this combination specially, tsk tsk tsk."

Ning Hao couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Li Mu and Liu Yifei, one in black and one in white.

"Hey, Director Ning, wasn't Sister Na supposed to come today? Why is she gone?" Liu Yifei took a look and saw that only Ning Hao was there.

"Don't mention it. My little brat suddenly got sick and will have to suffer for a while."

"It's a bit troublesome when children get sick now."

Xu Zheng's child is not young either, and he patted Ning Hao's shoulder with deep sympathy.

At the same time, the other leading actors as well as Han Jianu and Wen Muye also arrived.

Han Sanping also went to watch the first movie written by his daughter. However, compared with before, Han Sanping looked visibly older.

"It's been a long time since I attended a premiere." Han Sanping said with emotion.

“No way, I remember that the Third Master attended “The Founding of an Army” last year.” Li Mu joked with a smile.

"You don't give me any face at all."

"No, no, today the Third Master must walk in front." Li Mu pulled Han Sanping forward.

"I'm not leaving. It's you who are the main creators who are leaving. If you leave, it will break the rules."

"It's just a premiere, why are there so many rules? Let's go, Mr. Han." Li Mu pushed Han Sanping and signaled Han Jianu to take her father with her.

Han Jianu also understood Li Mu's meaning and directly pulled her father forward.

Han Sanping was also a little dazed at this time, because the moment Li Mu called him Mr. Han, it seemed as if he had returned to many years ago. The two seemed to have attended many premieres in the same way, but after many years, he had retired, but Li Mu was still on his way to the top of the mountain.

However, seeing Li Mu's smile that was the same as before, Han Sanping also laughed and walked towards the red carpet with Li Mu.

The atmosphere in the venue seemed to reach its climax the moment the creators stepped onto the red carpet. The prolonged shouting and applause made the media reporters sigh that this scene was rare.

After the main creators, more and more guests came.

Several leaders from the Food and Drug Administration came in a low-key manner. They didn’t even walk the red carpet and entered the cinema directly from other entrances.

At this time, the audience on both sides of the red carpet never stopped shouting.

"Look, it's Huang Xiaoming and Angelababy!"

"Zhou Xun is here too."

"Huang Bo, Shen Teng."

"Wu Jing, Cheng Long, quick shot, there is a high probability that the two of them will participate in the Spring Festival Gala together. It seems that the news is very likely to be true."

"."

"Thank you for taking the time to attend the premiere of Dying to Survive."

Li Mu bowed deeply to the audience, and then said calmly, "Today, the creators and I don't have much to say. I believe everyone has heard too many stories about filming. It's just like that. The real hardship in the movie, perhaps only those who have experienced it know it."

Today we are honored to have invited Mr. Lu Yong, the person involved in this movie, and several of his "friends". Let them say a few words, which are worth a thousand words from me." As Lu Yong and several former leukemia patients appeared behind the scenes, thunderous applause rang out in the entire theater again.

"Thank you Director Li!"

"No, it should be me who says thank you, thank you for sharing your story."

After Li Mu handed the microphone to Lu Yong, he left the stage with the main creators.

"This is the most special premiere I've ever seen, a premiere without any of the creators sharing it."

"To be honest, I am really interested in Lu Yong's estimate, as well as the friends of Lu Yong mentioned by Li Mu. I feel like they should be people who have experienced that incident with Lu Yong."

"."

The media and movie fans were also discussing the matter privately.

"Thank you, thank you everyone, thank you Director Li, screenwriter Han and all the film's creators. My story is that I am also a leukemia patient. How should I describe this story? It is very appropriate to use a poem by a friend of mine to describe it."

Following Lu Yong's introduction, everyone was able to confirm from their speculation that these "friends" were indeed leukemia patients.

“Life and death are just around the corner, opening and falling are just a moment.

The road is long, but heaven and sunshine are not far away.

The autumn water is cool, the sun is warm, I came back alive from heaven, and only then did I realize that spring is everywhere on earth."

A patient recited a poem at the scene. It might not be as cultured as those written by great poets, but everyone present could feel the hope of going from death to life.

"In fact, Brother Lu Yong did not make any money in the purchasing process. Patients from all over the country have taken his medicine. Rather than saying that Brother Lu Yong has helped so many leukemia patients, it is better to say that Brother Lu Yong has saved our lives.

If it weren’t for Brother Lu Yong, at least a thousand people would have died because we couldn’t afford imported medicine.”

Another leukemia patient, Li Qun, shared this.

Everyone present was silent, listening quietly to what the few people were sharing.

As the three people finished sharing, the movie officially began the moment the theater went dark.

At the beginning of the movie, there is no doubt that it is the dragon logo.

The leading actors Xu Zheng, Zhou Yiwei, Wang Chuanjun, Tan Zhuo and Zhang Yu appeared briefly.

Screenwriter Han Jianu!
As director Li Mu's work appeared on the screen, the scene instantly came to an old and messy street in Jinling that was full of fireworks.

In a dim health product store, a middle-aged man with dishevelled hair and dirty face was smoking a cigarette, looking decadent.
This scene immediately attracted the audience's attention.

"Old Cheng!"

Hear someone calling him.

The man in front of the computer was leaning sideways, staring at this person.

"The landlord hit me again, and I said you didn't open the door."

The man squinted his eyes and held the cigarette in his mouth. He casually closed his hands and raised them in front of his eyes. "Thank you."

From the simple dialogues and environmental shots at the beginning, the audience understands that at this moment, the protagonist Cheng Yong, played by Xu Zheng, is the owner of an Indian magic oil shop, and he is very down and out. He can't even pay the rent, and the landlord keeps urging him to pay.

Because he had no money, he divorced his wife, and he didn't even have the confidence to fight with his ex-wife for the custody of his son.

One day, the owner of the hotel next to the magic oil shop introduced a man named Lu Shouyi to Cheng Yong, saying that he needed Cheng Yong's help.

When Lu Shouyi appeared on the stage, he was wearing a three-layer mask. When he took it off, a low cheer was heard at the scene.

"Is this Guan Gu from "Love Apartment"?"

"It doesn't look like it. Damn, he's so thin."

"."

The audience was also slightly surprised. After all, Guan Gu's image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of many audiences, but when compared, it feels like a world of difference.

The first half of the movie seems to be quite exciting, because Cheng Yong, under economic pressure, decided to take a risk, formed a team, and started selling Indian generic drugs.

As the business grew, they made more and more money.

However, just when the team thought the business could continue to grow and develop, Cheng Yong suddenly decided to disband.

Because selling generic drugs is illegal, he is afraid because he has elderly parents and young children to support.

He decided to sell the agency rights of Indian medicine to another dealer who had been selling fake medicine for a long time and retire from the business.

He was ready to inform the team of this difficult decision.

Everyone knows that the turning point of the movie seems to be coming.

At this moment, the movie scene changed.

As night fell, it was raining and the puddles on the street reflected the hurried passers-by.

In the Indian magic oil shop.

The team is having a dinner together, eating hotpot and drinking beer.

Lu Shouyi, Sihui, Pastor Liu and Huangmao were all in high spirits. They stood and toasted each other, looking very happy.

Cheng Yong was sitting.

He smoked a cigarette and looked at the four people with a smile.

It was just when Cheng Yong announced the news of disbanding the team and giving the agency rights of Indian generic drugs to other people.

The crowd broke down in an instant.

The tense atmosphere in the movie seemed to be transmitted to everyone in the theater, like an invisible hand, tightly grasping their hearts.

"It was Cheng Yong's duty to save people, and it was his duty not to save people. He was afraid of going to jail so he stopped, which is normal.

It is normal for leukemia patients to want or desire Cheng Yong to sell drugs. Both are normal and neither is wrong, but the two are contradictory."

"Fuck! This is too cruel!"

"Damn, I feel like this movie is going to make me cry. I can't control myself anymore."

"."

The audience in the cinema seemed to be deeply immersed in the plot at this moment.
