Superstars In Parallel Time and Space

"?"

There was a big question mark in Millie's mind. Could it be that Mitchell asked Angle to watch a movie not because he wanted to chase her, but to watch movies together?

Could she be wrong?

Millie glanced at the two suspiciously. Angle agreed after hearing Mitchell's words, "It's just to watch a movie together. It's normal to be classmates. What are you thinking?"

Millie shrugged and said, "Well, it seems I misunderstood."

"However, this seems to be the first time that a Chinese film has been screened in theaters in the United States." Turning around, Millie forgot about it and started discussing Chen Mubai's film with them.

"Yeah, I haven't seen Huaxia's movies shown in theaters before, only videotapes." Mitchell nodded.

It is true that purely Chinese movies are not screened in American cinemas, unless they are American works, but the actors are Chinese. There are such works, but there are not many.

They are all very famous superstars in China in the last century, and they all have a certain reputation in the world. Most of them are Kung Fu stars, and they are the ones who made Chinese Kungfu go global. Foreigners still believe that Chinese people know martial arts and can fly over walls.

In the past, American film and television companies invited Chinese stars to star in movies, but these years have disappeared. They only find some stars to star in them for the sake of China's box office.

Because the influence of foreign films is growing and the audience is very wide, many Chinese stars are willing to lower their prices to play supporting roles. Appearing in such international blockbusters can also bring them exposure.

Even though it might not appear in the international version, it would be great to appear in Huaxia. At least the audience in Huaxia would think that it is awesome that this star can appear in a Hollywood blockbuster!

Fans can also boast to the sky, increasing the popularity and popularity of the star, which is conducive to continuing to negotiate money in the country.

Chen Mubai didn't bother to do this. When he became famous, many international blockbusters came to him and asked him if he would appear in their movies, so that he could add some characters with lines.

He refused all of them, not to mention whether it will be a special edition for China, that is, the salary will be lowered or no salary will be given. To act or guest star in such a blockbuster movie is just to show his face. Isn't it cheap! ?

He believes that one day he will be able to make this kind of blockbuster, without the need to guest star in anyone's work, and act as the leading role instead of supporting those foreign blockbusters.

"When I was a child, I watched a lot of Huaxia movies. The people in them are very good at martial arts. I have always yearned for it."

Millie said excitedly: "It wasn't until I met Angle that I realized that not everyone in Huaxia knows kung fu. You have to concentrate on practicing and enter the youth..."

"Shaolin Temple." Seeing Milika's words, Angle added.

"Yes, Shaolin Temple, but when I thought of shaving my head, I gave up, otherwise I really want to go to Huaxia~"

Millie said: "However, I have watched a lot of Huaxia's works in the follow-up, and they are still very good, until Chen Mubai appeared, which changed my perception of Huaxia stars!"

"Generally Chinese people are very reserved, just like Angle. Unexpectedly, Chen Mubai is a very confident and high-profile person. When I first heard "right now", I couldn't believe that this song was written by a Chinese person! "

Millie exclaimed: "Whether it's the melody or pronunciation of the song, it doesn't make people feel like a Chinese person at all. It's really amazing. Later, I saw his award-winning work, "Buried Alive."

"I watched it wholeheartedly. All kinds of reversals emerged one after another. I was thrilled to watch it. I didn't expect him to die in the end, which made me a little sad."

"So, when Chen Mubai came to participate in the Oscars last year, I went to the scene to cheer for him. At that time, I was with Angle. I was very handsome. This time, when his movie was released, I would come to support him. !"

Millie told the reason why she knew Chen Mubai and admired him. She really admired Chen Mubai's talent. When she saw Chen Mubai's live performance of "Dangerous" on TV, she screamed in surprise, it was really great!

When she learned from Angle that Chen Mubai's movie was released, she decisively agreed to watch it, although she was a bit suspected of being a light bulb.

However, the parties have denied it, so there should be no problem.

"Let's go in."

The three of them talked and laughed, the movie was about to start, and the tickets were already being checked.

—————

There were not many people who came, but they were not too few. Most of them were Chinese, and a little less American. From the discussions around, it seemed that they all came for Chen Mubai.

Some people are because of Chen Mubai's handsome looks, some are because of his songs, and some are because of his dances and movies.

This once again shows that the publicity strategy of Weiyu and Dow Group is very successful. It is still effective to publicize all the aspects and achievements of Chen Mubai.

If it is only a single promotion of the name or the identity of the director or actor, I am afraid that some of his fans will be lost to watch the movie.

"Okay, several of his movies have been released this time, and I can watch them again when I have time." Mitchell remembered Chen Mubai, not because he liked Chen Mubai, but in fact he didn't pay attention to the entertainment industry.

He prefers sports stars. He pays attention to stars in basketball, football and baseball, but he really doesn't pay much attention to actors.

But looking at this posture, Angle obviously likes Chen Mubai very much, so he has to start from this aspect, to match what he likes, so that it is easier to attack her.

Mitchell is not a love idiot. In fact, children in the United States are relatively precocious. He has been in love several times, but this is the first time he has launched an offensive against a Chinese girl.

After the three entered the theater, they found their seats.

Millie was very excited, and kept chattering non-stop. Mitchell occasionally added a few words, because he really didn't know Chen Mubai very well, and he might make mistakes if he talked too much. It's best to listen at this time, and go back to do the strategy. This time there is a topic.

Soon, the movie begins.

The previous plot is quite satisfactory, and there are many war movies in the United States, and they are very good ones, so they will not feel astonished like the Chinese people. After all, it is the first time that a war movie of this level has been shot in China.

In the following plot, everyone was gradually attracted, especially during the rescue operation, the battle between the two sides was very fierce, the dragon team suffered casualties, everyone was disheartened, but still did not give up the goal, just to rescue the trapped Chinese .

Finally, the movie ends.

"Wow, this movie is good." Millie said.

"Yes." Mitchell agreed, not advocating, but really feeling good.

"Isn't it a bit exaggerated to spend such a huge price just to rescue a Chinese person?" Regarding this point, he kept having doubts when he watched it.

"This is not the case in our country. The rescue of hostages must be a safe operation. They will not give their lives for others."

This is the case in the United States. You can’t help but shoot. If you see a prisoner outside, if the other party is likely to attack with a gun, you will kill him immediately without saying a word to ensure your own safety.

Like the situation in the movie, it is only possible to rescue that person if the person is very important or the success rate of the rescue operation is very high, otherwise he will definitely give up rescuing that person, let alone an ordinary citizen.

In the same scenario replacement, Mitchell does not believe that their country will do this.

This is the cultural difference between the two countries, and Mitchell wondered whether the plot in the movie was true or not.

"it is true."

Angle nodded, and then she told the two students about the situation in the country. At any time, she would ensure the safety of the people as soon as possible, including shooting and killing the bad guys.

"Cool!" Mitchell sighed after listening.

"Yeah, living in such a country will give you a very sense of security." Millie also sighed.

"For the life of a citizen, paying such a high price really makes people feel a sense of belonging. No wonder your nation is very united."

"The movie was shot very well, the image of being shot is very strong, and those people are really touching. They have never regretted it until they died, and they are still insisting on completing the task!"

Mitchell took the words and said: "Unlike in many movies, the villain will not be shot after shooting so many shots, and will not be injured if he is blown up by a grenade. Here the grenade is thrown in, and then picked up and thrown out, his arm is blown off. Yes, it’s true, the grenade will explode with a delay of about 2 seconds.”

Not only the three of them were praising, but many other people who watched the movie thought it was good, and everyone was praising it.

 …

On this day, after watching "Operation Red Sea", many people who walked into the theater gave good comments, only a small number of people didn't like it, and overall it was not bad.

There are also those who are interested in animation. After all, many comics are selling very well in the United States, and the box office of movies adapted from comics is not bad, and the works of fairy tales are well received.

The special effects of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" are well done. Many people are surprised that Huaxia can produce this level of special effects. If it develops for a few more years, it will really not be worse than their animation.

However, because it is a Chinese-English translation, the meaning of some old sayings is difficult to describe, and it is somewhat different from the original meaning.

However, some words have won the approval of many people, such as [other people's opinions are bullshit, who you are only you can say] [prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain]...

When these words are translated, they have similar meanings, especially since the United States is a multi-ethnic country with many conflicts between races and racial discrimination...

Many people are in a state of being bullied and discriminated against. These bullied people are very depressed, often bullied, and have lost self-confidence in many cases. In a way, this movie is a film about giving A positive energy movie of their confidence.

The praise of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" is much higher than that of "Operation Red Sea". After all, there are better war movies in America, and this time "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" surprised them too much .

One is the improvement of special effects, and the other is the rhythm of the narrative ability. They prefer this type of animation, which has profound meaning, and in the end it is also a happy comedy ending.

For a while, the word of mouth of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" spread instead, and the group among students spread the most, because this group was the most bullied group, and school violence was an unavoidable topic.

"Infernal Affairs" also has an audience. Before Solomon bought the copyright of the movie to be a villain, the movie has been approved, and the starring is still a well-known actor. When the project was approved, it had a lot of momentum, so many people know about this movie.

Now that everyone has seen the original version, out of curiosity, many people came to see it.

In addition, Chen Mubai himself has a certain appeal, and there are quite a few people watching the movie. His previous actions made him famous.

The data released on the first day of the movie is not bad, the rest needs to be promoted by word of mouth, and the publicity that should be done has been done to the greatest extent.

There are fewer people watching during the day, but more at night.

On the one hand, because I have something to do during the day, I have more time in the evening, and I have time to do what I want to do after school and get off work. On the other hand, I went to the theater at night after being recommended by others during the day.

Fortunately, there are no big movies at this point in time, so there is not much competition, and the attendance at the box office of several movies is not bad.
