I was rejected when I wrote a song, but I became a king on my debut.

Chapter 301 Are You Returning as a King?

Lin Jiajia also watched the movie "Detective Chinatown" with her friends.

Since the official announcement of the film, Lin Jiajia has been very interested in this first film starring Zhou Yu during the promotion period. Not only because she is a fan of Zhou Yu, but also because Lin Jiajia has great confidence in the film directed by Chen.

The movies Director Chen has made in recent years have all been of very good quality and have achieved high box office results, which shows that Director Chen's movies are very popular in the market.

The key point is that Zhou Yu has also joined the cast this time. As Zhou Yu's first big screen work as the leading actor, Lin Jiajia is also very curious about Zhou Yu's performance in this movie.

I have watched almost one-third of the movie so far. The plot of the whole movie is still very good. It is a comedy-style suspense film, and Zhou Yu's performance in the movie is also remarkable.

"It's really good. Director Chen's films are all of good quality."

A good friend next to him was also talking to Lin Jiajia in a low voice: "And Zhou Yu's Qin Feng is very handsome. The key is that his acting skills are also good. He brought out the genius of Qin Feng. Moreover, Zhou Yu can still handle acting opposite so many teachers in the entertainment industry."

Lin Jiajia also nodded. When she watched "The Legend of Yunxi" before, Zhou Yu was only a guest star, although his acting skills were shown. But compared with this coherent plot, it seemed much narrower. However, judging from Zhou Yu's performance in the movie "Detective Chinatown", they were really amazed.

Even Lin Jiajia felt that Zhou Yu's acting skills were not inferior to those teachers in the entertainment industry.

"I saw Director Chen said on Weibo that the original script of this drama was not like this. It was Zhou Yu who gave suggestions and changed the script during filming."

Lin Jiajia took a sip of Coke and said, "It shows that Zhou Yu is very talented in screenwriting. Zhou Yu has made a great contribution to the success of this drama."

Director Chen said on Weibo before that Zhou Yu was one of the screenwriters of this movie, and it was he who made the plot of this movie more exciting and moving. Now it seems that this is indeed the case. The movie "Detective Chinatown" is indeed good.

At this moment, the plot has progressed to the point where Qin Feng and Tang Ren come to find Kun Tai.

Tang Ren called Kuntai.

"Tang Ren, have you arrived in MLXY or Country H?"

"I'm at your door."

Then there was a burst of ping-pong sounds in the room.

The scene changed, and Kuntai was covering his bruised head with a towel, looking at Qin Feng and Tang Ren speechlessly.

"Why don't you leave?"

"I also want to prove my innocence."

Qin Feng: "We need to solve the case."

“Do you think this is a movie?”

Kuntai pointed at the two of them and said, "Are you returning as the king?"

Tang Ren said bitterly: "You have to help me."

"I have already helped you escape."

"You still have to help me."

"Will I help you with your JC job again?"

Tang Ren sighed slightly and spoke casually.

"If they knew you were accepting bribes and opening a small casino."

Kuntai was furious: "How dare you threaten me?!"

"If your wife knew you were keeping a mistress..."

Kuntai's expression changed instantly. He put away his arrogant look and spoke calmly.

"How can I help you?"

Tang Ren: "We need to see Songpa's detailed information."

Qin Feng: "A list of his spending in the past six months."

Kuntai: "Okay."

"We still have to go to the police station."

"Watch the surveillance video."

Kuntai immediately stood up and refused to do it.

"Are you crazy?!"

Tang Ren immediately pointed at him and said, "You even…"

Kuntai's expression changed again in a second. He looked amiable and held Tang Ren's hand that was pointing at him, placed it on his chest, and smiled.

"Let's make a plan."

……

In the cinema, the audience laughed out loud when they saw this scene.

"I can't take it anymore. I am dying of laughter. The role played by Mr. Hu Wei is so funny."

"Haha, this really is a one-second change of expression, haha."

"I heard that this part was modified by Zhou Yu on the set, and he even demonstrated it to Teacher Hu Wei. Haha, I have to say, Zhou Yu's modification is really dramatic, haha."

"Really, Zhou Yu's acting is also good in this movie. Although I don't know what the original plot is like, the adapted plot is really good, haha."

"This is a comedy-suspense film. I have to say that Director Chen is really good at this."

"I'm actually looking forward to the movie Zhou Yu is shooting. I heard it's already finished and will be released in the summer of next year."

……

Lin Jiajia and her good friend laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt while watching the movie in the cinema. This movie is really funny and exciting. Although comedy movies have not been successful in recent years, there are many such movies released every year, which shows that there is a market. It’s just that there is a lack of good comedy movies. This movie "Detective Chinatown" has added a lot of comedy elements to it. At present, it seems to be quite good.

"Suspense and comedy, it's really worthy of Zhou Yuha."

Based on Lin Jiajia's understanding of Zhou Yu, most of the plots they have seen so far must have been changed by Zhou Yu. Director Chen seemed to have revealed before that after Zhou Yu's changes, many comedy elements were added to the film.

So it can be seen that in the original script, the suspenseful crime-solving was the main plot, and there were few comedy elements. Now it seems that Zhou Yu boldly added comedy elements, and the results are still very good. At least they feel that this movie is very exciting, making people laugh and cry, and at the same time, it has the excitement of solving the suspenseful case.

"Director Chen's new movie is expected to become the box office champion during the May Day holiday."

Lin Jiajia thought so in her heart. Looking at the movies in the May Day period, this "Detective Chinatown" is more attractive than the one by Lin Yifan and his team. However, after watching "Detective Chinatown", Lin Jiajia felt that this movie, which ranked second in pre-sale box office, would surpass the one by Lin Yifan and his team later.

On Wen Shiyi's side, seeing these funny clips, the audience and Sister Lin also burst into laughter, and Xiaoqin laughed non-stop.

"Sister Lin, Mr. Zhou Yu's revised plot is so good, so exciting."

Sister Lin nodded in agreement.

Although Wen Shiyi was wearing a mask and her expression could not be seen, the smile in the corners of her eyes showed her mood while watching the movie.

"Shiyi, what do you think? Teacher Zhou Yu's adaptation is pretty good, isn't it? The comedy effect is great and his acting is good too."

Seeing this, Wen Shiyi returned to her cold and aloof look.

"good."

Sister Lin curled her lips, saying one thing and thinking another. It was not like she didn't see Wen Shiyi almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

"Now it seems that I am more looking forward to the movie that Mr. Zhou Yu will release in the summer. It is mainly a comedy. Mr. Zhou Yu's comedic talent can be seen from Chinatown Detective."

Wen Shiyi nodded calmly, but at the moment she was not thinking about Zhou Yu's summer movie.

Instead, she was thinking about the question that had been on her mind for some time: what should happen between her and Zhou Yu?
Forget him?
I've tried this during this time, but I really can't do it.

Wait for him to break up with Yang Qian?
Wen Shiyi didn't know how long she would have to wait.

She really had no idea what to do and was very conflicted.

As for Lin Yifan and his friends, they also laughed a lot while watching the film, and they felt a little unsatisfied after watching it.

On the way back in the car, Lin Yifan was chatting with his agent.

"Yifan, what do you think of Director Chen's movie?"

After Lin Yifan finished watching the movie, he didn't say much. But while watching the movie in the cinema, Lin Yifan was laughing happily just like them.

In fact, after watching today's "Detective Chinatown", Lin Yifan's agent felt that this was a good movie. Zhou Yu's performance in the movie was also very good. He was able to match up with the big names in the entertainment industry such as Teacher Hu Wei, which was something he had never expected.

However, seeing that Lin Yifan hadn't said anything since he came out, and now that Lin Yifan's movie was released, he was in competition with Zhou Yu and the others, he felt that it was better not to say some things.

When Lin Yifan heard his agent's question, he finally spoke after being silent for a long time after watching the movie.

"Very wonderful!"

Just three simple words, but Lin Yifan spoke them very clearly, and there was an indescribable shock in his words.

He continued: "Although I don't know what the original script was like, the plot after Zhou Yu's adaptation is indeed very exciting. And..."

Lin Yifan paused for a moment before continuing.

"Zhou Yu's acting skills are even more clearly demonstrated in this movie. You can't tell that he is a newcomer with his acting skills. I have to say that he is really talented in acting."

Lin Yifan had no hostility towards Zhou Yu. After all, there was no grudge between the two. Moreover, Lin Yifan admired Zhou Yu's talent in music and he also liked some of Zhou Yu's songs.

This time, the movies starring the two were released at the same time, so they are just competitors.

However, he was not very optimistic about Zhou Yu's acting skills before, even though Zhou Yu's performance in the guest appearance "The Legend of Yunxi" was quite good. But Zhou Yu's role was too small, and he could not see any tricks.

But this time, after watching "Detective Chinatown 3" starring Zhou Yu, Lin Yifan was completely convinced by Zhou Yu's acting skills.

With this acting skill, he felt that even some young actors who graduated from professional schools might not be as good as Zhou Yu. It was no wonder that he was chosen by Director Chen to be the leading actor in his new movie.

When the agent heard Lin Yifan's words, he felt relieved. He shared the same opinion.

"I think it will be difficult for our film to be released during the May Day holiday."

The agent said: "Given the quality of Zhou Yu's film, I think it won't be a problem for us to catch up later. When we pre-sold the box office, we weren't ahead by much..."

Now that they have watched the movie "Detective Chinatown", they have a clear idea in their minds. The movie "My Youth" was able to lead the pre-sale box office entirely because of the publicity resources of Gu Tang Entertainment and the support of Lin Yifan's fans. And because the box office performance of the movies starring Lin Yifan in recent years has been very good, many fans will choose to watch Lin Yifan's movies.

After all, Zhou Yu is a newcomer in the film and television industry. Before the movie is released, everyone cannot see the quality and excitement of the movie, so they can only rely on the actors to judge which movie to watch.

But now that the movie has been released, to be honest, they all think that Director Chen's "Detective Chinatown" is very well made. When the word of mouth spreads, they may not be able to cope with it.

After all, the box office of youth idol movies has not been high over the years. This is why they did not choose to compete in the Spring Festival and summer vacation. The competition in these two periods is too fierce, and youth idol movies are at a disadvantage. So they thought that they would release it in the May Day period when the competition is not so fierce, and they could get a few hundred million box office.

After all, this kind of movie doesn't require a lot of investment, and the cost is less than 100 million. Among them, the biggest cost is the salary of Lin Yifan from their family.

"Yifan, have you noticed that Zhou Yu added a lot of comedy elements to the play when he was adapting it? There were rumors in the industry before that the movie he shot was a comedy. It seems that he is testing the waters with Director Chen's movie."

The agent suddenly thought of this and added a lot of comedy elements to the movie "Detective Chinatown". It was originally based on suspense and solving cases, but after Zhou Yu adapted the script, he added these comedy elements.

The reason why they are sure that these elements were added by Zhou Yu is that before this, Director Chen's films never had so many comedy elements. Although there were, they were rare in previous films.

This time, there are so many funny plots in the movie, which must be because Zhou Yu adapted the script.

This immediately reminded him of the rumors in the industry that Zhou Yu's own film was a comedy and would be released during the summer vacation. Comedy films had not performed well in the past two years, and the general environment was like this, so no one was optimistic about the comedy film shot by Zhou Yu.

But now it seems that Zhou Yu seems to have a talent for comedy. At least the comedy elements he added to the movie "Detective Chinatown" were successful, and they and the audience liked it very much.

When Lin Yifan heard his agent's words, his eyes flickered.

"Now that you mention it, I'm actually looking forward to his summer movie. It's a comedy, interesting..."

Now it seems that Zhou Yu added so many comedy elements to "Detective Chinatown" with the intention of testing the market and exploring the way for his comedy movies.

So far, it seems that his trial has been very successful and the audience is very receptive to it.

I just don’t know if his pure comedy movie can be successful during the summer vacation.

After all, the movie "Detective Chinatown" is not a pure comedy.
