My Songwriting Was Rejected, But I Became A Superstar

The film was released in 1989.

Chapter 308 You are called Charlotte!

With the arrival of July, especially on July 1st, many summer movies have been released. Starting this month, the movies of the entire summer will start to be released in theaters one after another.

And now on July 1st, the most popular ones are “Legend of Immortals and Demons” from Gu Tang Entertainment and “Gunfire Charge” from Xingguang Entertainment. These two movies are big productions and big lineups, so they are the most anticipated movies released so far.

As for Zhou Yu’s movie “Charlotte’s Troubles”, although the popularity is okay, it is still far behind these two big productions.

Although Zhou Yu and his team have been promoting the film vigorously, because the comedy films in recent years are really bad, people are not optimistic about Zhou Yu’s pure comedy film. Even now, many people who have watched the movie and made reservations for the movie are Zhou Yu’s fans.

And this is why Zhou Yu’s movie can rank fifth in the pre-sale box office, purely relying on Zhou Yu’s fans.

However, today, because Zhou Yu’s movie was released, many people in the circle are helping Zhou Yu promote it.

For example, Director Jiang Dan, Director Hong Tao, Director Chen, and Teacher Chen Mo are all posting on Weibo to help promote it.

Even though Zhou Yu’s movie is not ranked very high in the box office, the online promotion is quite popular. And many people think that the promotion of this movie is more intense than the two movies of Gu Tang and Xingguang Entertainment.

Zhou Yu, Yang Qian, Wen Shiyi and Penguin, with so many big directors helping to promote it, it is really no worse than the two major companies.

However, it is precisely because of such a fierce publicity offensive that everyone’s attention to Zhou Yu’s movie is also particularly high.

But the higher the price, the more people in the circle think that this is better. After all, the more popular Zhou Yu’s movie is now, if the performance is too bad, the more painful it will be for him.

On July 1st, there were relatively few people watching movies at night, and most of them were during the day.

So, in the afternoon of the 1st, Lin Jiajia came to the cinema with her friends to watch Zhou Yu’s first directorial work.

As a loyal fan of Zhou Yu, she naturally came to support her idol’s first movie.

“Jiajia, after watching the promotional clips on the Internet, what do you think of Zhou Yu’s movie?”

The good friend sat next to Lin Jiajia. People came to the cinema one after another, but not many. It can’t be compared with “The Legend of Immortals and Demons” and “Gunfire Charge”, two popular movies of the same period. Their friends went to see these two movies, and they were full.

Zhou Yu’s “Charlotte’s Troubles” is only half full, and his popularity seems to be barely acceptable.

“I believe in my idol’s ability.”

Lin Jiajia is very confident in Zhou Yu’s talent, and Zhou Yu has been the same before when he changed his career to become a screenwriter and an actor. Everyone is not optimistic about him, but he is the most competitive and can surprise people every time.

Thinking back carefully, it seems that Zhou Yu has been going smoothly since his debut, and he has never encountered any setbacks. And every time Zhou Yu changes his career, it is very successful. Even if everyone is not optimistic about this movie, Lin Jiajia thinks that it will definitely bring her a surprise.

In this situation, we can only say that after watching the movie, we will know the result.

When the lights in the cinema went out, the movie officially began.

With the appearance of the classic golden dragon logo, the cinema gradually became quiet, and slowly began to enter the plot.

At the beginning, it was a scene of Teacher Wang Teng and his brother-in-law driving around outside the hotel.

As a luxury car drove into the hotel gate, it circled around the door for several times without stopping, which also attracted the attention of the classmates in the room.

“Brother-in-law, that’s enough, I have to go back quickly.”

“My girlfriend is celebrating her 60th birthday today, and she didn’t even know I drove the car out.”

Charlotte, played by teacher Wang Teng, was wearing a dress and sitting in the back to observe whether the old classmates noticed her.

“Then you drive slower, let’s go around two more times.”

Seeing this scene, many people in the cinema couldn’t help laughing.

“Haha, this brother-in-law is a gigolo.”

“It looks a bit interesting at the beginning.”

“Keep watching.”

…

Many people were whispering to each other,

At this beginning, everyone felt that it was OK, at least there was no bad plot.

And as the plot of the wedding progressed, many female viewers of the movie were excited when Yuan Hua, played by Zhou Yu, appeared.

“Wow! So handsome!”

“Indeed, Zhou Yu looks so handsome in a suit!”

“Why can’t a man like this have a relationship with me?”

…

Lin Jiajia looked at Yuan Hua, played by Zhou Yu, wearing a suit to attend the wedding, and was also excitedly discussing with her good friend in a low voice.

“Should I say it? My idol is really handsome.”

“I also think that with Zhou Yu’s appearance, he can obviously make a living with his face, but he is so capable.”

As the plot progressed, Teacher Wang had already entered the scene.

“Teacher, do you still remember me? I came first in the winter long-distance race that year.”

Teacher Wang looked embarrassed: “First…”

“During the New Year that year, my father gave you a Sony radio.”

When Teacher Wang heard this, he suddenly realized: “Zhang Yang! The teacher can’t forget that.”

At this time, Yuan Hua, played by Zhou Yu, raised his glass to toast: “Teacher Wang, my father gave you a TV.”

“Yuan Hua, you are still so handsome.”

“Teacher, I gave you a calendar.”

“The teacher doesn’t remember that.”

As soon as this scene appeared, everyone in the cinema laughed out loud.

Seeing now, although it is just a beginning, Lin Jiajia feels that Zhou Yu’s comedy is really good.

At least from the perspective of a comedy, the jokes at the beginning are quite dense, and they are not the kind of lousy ones.

As the plot progresses, Xia Luo has returned to high school, and the scene and the color of the picture have changed instantly. The expression of this lens language seems to pull everyone back to that era in an instant.

“Hmm? This is actually a rebirth drama?”

“This plot is so familiar, as if I saw the urban rebirth novel I read before, haha.”

“Hey, it’s interesting, there are rebirth elements in it.”

“No, this should be a dream of Charlotte.”

…

This plot immediately aroused everyone’s curiosity. At present, the plot is still quite good, at least it can make people watch it, and even smile inadvertently.

From these points of view, this comedy is qualified.

At this moment, somewhere else, Xu Shan is also watching Zhou Yu’s “Charlotte’s Troubles” in the cinema.

As a well-known film and television commentary blogger, he naturally wants to watch this summer movie. Today, he has already watched “The Legend of Immortals and Demons” by Gu Tang Entertainment and “Gunfire Charge” by Xingguang Entertainment. This “Charlotte’s Troubles” is the third movie he has watched today.

To be honest, the first two movies are worthy of being big-budget movies, and the plots and special effects are indeed very good. As for Zhou Yu’s pure comedy, he thinks it’s OK at present, at least not as bad as those previous comedies.

From the beginning of the movie to now, the whole movie has a lot of laughs, and they are not those vulgar and rotten plots.

Especially when it comes to the plot of Charlotte returning to high school, Xu Shan is also a little surprised.

“Is it really a rebirth element?”

This gives people the feeling of watching an urban rebirth story.

And from the plot and camera language of this movie, Zhou Yu’s shooting techniques and technology are very good, and it is completely impossible to tell that he is a new director. It can also be seen that Zhou Yu is extremely talented and capable in filming movies.

Xu Shan watched the movie, and when Charlotte kissed the school beauty Qiuya, he actually felt a touch of pleasure in his heart.

“Hey, this is really like the urban rebirth story.”

He even felt that Zhou Yu’s movie was made after he read those urban rebirth stories.

“In my dream, how can I be bullied by you?!”

“Zhang Yang, give me the fire.”

Zhang Yang looked flustered: “I… I don’t smoke, where do I get the cigarettes?”

This scene made the cinema even more hilarious, and Xu Shan couldn’t stop laughing, especially when he saw Xia Luo taking the lead in fighting with Teacher Wang, he felt very happy.

When Teacher Wang took off the schoolbag on his head in a mess, Dashachun’s foot, which was about to step on it, stopped instantly, and he looked at Teacher Wang with embarrassment.

“Dashachun! What are you doing?!”

“Wang… Teacher Wang, do you think my shoes look good?”

…

“Haha! Zhou Yu shot it well, this comedy is really funny.”

“Don’t say it,

I feel like I’m reading a cool urban rebirth story, haha.”

“Indeed, I didn’t expect that Mr. Wang Teng is so good at making comedies, so funny.”

“Zhou Yu’s Yuan Hua is also, haha, quite funny.”

…

As the plot develops, it has come to the point where Charlotte comes out of the hospital and finds that he has been reborn and returned to the past. The music with a sense of age and the familiar buildings of the last century really touched many people.

And when everyone saw Charlotte’s mother, in order to allow Charlotte to stay in school, the scene in the principal’s office, everyone felt funny and a little sad.

This is a mother who can put aside her face for her children…

Looking at this scene, Xu Shan seemed to see something different from Zhou Yu’s pure comedy. I saw the warmth hidden under the comedy…

The plot is slowly advancing. As I watch, Xu Shan feels that it is getting more and more exciting and the plot is fascinating. Especially when Xia Luo starts to copy songs, the feeling of urban rebirth becomes stronger and stronger. This plot is really getting more and more like an online novel.

The scene changes, Qiu Ya appears upstairs, and Yuan Hua, played by Zhou Yu, appears. In an instant, a strange song sounds in everyone’s ears.

“Snowflakes are flying and the north wind is whistling

The world is vast…”

When this song sounded, Xu Shan and many viewers were also surprised.

“Is this song… a new song?”

And from the sound of the song, it seems that Zhou Yu is singing it himself.

“It doesn’t say that there are new songs by Zhou Yu in this movie. ”

Xu Shan himself was a little surprised. Before this, when Zhou Yu was promoting the movie, he never revealed that there would be a new song inserted in the movie.

But it’s true, when this song sounded, combined with the scene where Yuan Hua, played by Zhou Yu, appeared in the movie, it really had a sense of comedy.

“Hello, hello, is Qiu Ya there, is Qiu Ya there…”

When Yuan Hua and Qiu Ya were communicating, Xia Luo’s voice suddenly sounded on the radio, and then there was the classic song copying scene.

“I wrote a song for you and gave it to you. I hope you like it. ”

When Charlotte’s voice fell, the music started.

“I once dreamed of traveling the world with a sword

See the prosperity of the world

Young hearts are always a little frivolous

Now you are at home all over the world

The girl who once made you feel distressed

Now has disappeared quietly

Love always makes you long for and feel troubled

Once you were covered with wounds…”

When Zhou Yu’s song sounded, everyone in the cinema was stunned for a moment, and then many people laughed out loud.

“Haha, Zhou Yu is playing his own joke, Charlotte copied Zhou Yu’s song, haha, classic.”

“Haha, Zhou Yu’s movie is really interesting, it’s really funny.”

“Charlotte copied Zhou Yu, haha, absolutely amazing. ”

……

Even Lin Jiajia was amused when she heard that the song Xia Luo copied was Zhou Yu’s previous song “You in the Past”. Wow, this is a joke of its own.

But it’s true, this plot is really exciting.

In the movie, Yuan Hua was angry: “Too much…”

However, Qiu Ya interrupted him directly and listened to Xia Luo’s singing quietly.

The plot slowly developed. After Xia Luo participated in the singing competition for primary and secondary school students, he gradually became a celebrity on campus. Qiu Ya also admired Xia Luo more and more, and the two became closer and closer. Yuan Hua, watching his former goddess leave him, was full of anger.

However, every time Yuan Hua, played by Zhou Yu, appeared, the exclusive background music sounded, which made everyone laugh.

Lin Jiajia searched online and found that this song was just released today with the movie. I have to say that Zhou Yu did a really good job of keeping it secret.

“A Plum Blossom…”

Looking at the title of the song that had just been released, Lin Jiajia silently repeated it in her heart, but she didn’t listen to it in the cinema. Now it was time to watch the movie.

The plot has come to the time when Yuan Hua is looking for someone to deal with Xia Luo. When the gangster found Xia Luo, he said directly.

“Your name is Xia Luo?!”

Xia Luo took out the money: “Brother! From now on, I will buy out the title of your younger brother. From now on, I will be your younger brother, and you will be my older brother…”
