Chapter 808 I'll wait for you to buy me a drink

Perhaps due to the huge number of movie viewers and his own director's vision, it is often difficult for Cheng Yu'an to watch a movie with the mentality of an ordinary audience.

To put it bluntly, he knows the various reasons for the brilliant success of "Wolf Warrior 2", whether it is the film itself, the help of public opinion, or the changes in the social environment. He knows all these, but he is sitting in the screening room now and is very confused.

It’s hard to calm down and watch it again.

Liu Yifei, on the other hand, was amazed by the various explosions and action scenes in it, finding them very powerful and exciting.

After the final screening of the film, after the actors’ subtitles and before the behind-the-scenes personnel’s subtitles, there was a special acknowledgment:

"Special thanks to: Liu Yifei."

"Huh?" The audience was full of doubts. "Wolf Warrior 2" specially thanked Liu Yifei. The media and audience present had not received relevant news before.

Liu Yifei is actually related to "Wolf Warrior 2"! I'll have to ask about it later.

After all the ending credits were shown, the main creators returned to the stage.

The reporter immediately raised the question: "I would like to ask director Wu Jing. In the subtitles of the film, he specifically thanked Liu Yifei. What is the relationship between Liu Yifei and "Wolf Warrior 2"?"

Wu Jing smiled and said: "Please let Yifei answer this question yourself. Stop hiding, I have seen you and your wife." Wu Jing pointed to Cheng Yu'an and Liu Yifei on the seats.

The scene was filled with exclaims. They didn’t even know that Liu Yifei and Cheng Yuan were here!

Liu Yifei must have put on makeup when she came here today, but she is now wearing casual clothes, a pair of blue jeans and a white Mickey T-shirt, pictured above!

Today's attire is not suitable for attending a premiere event.

The camera turned to the direction of Liu Yifei, who was still smiling while wearing a hat.

Wu Jing waved to her: "Come on, come up."

Cheng Yu'an also pushed him out: "Go, people are asking you something."

Liu Yifei pulled Cheng Yu'an up as well.

"I would like to express my special thanks to Liu Yifei, why are you dragging me along?" Cheng Yu'an didn't want to go up.

But Wu Jing worked hard: "Come on, you two come up."

The couple took the stage.

"Hello everyone, I am Liu Yifei." Liu Yifei greeted everyone, which attracted cheers and applause from the audience.

"Hello everyone, I am Liu Yifei's family member." Cheng Yu'an said playfully.

Everyone laughed, and the reporter asked the question again.

Liu Yifei replied: "I actually didn't know Brother Jing made subtitles later, and I was quite surprised."

"Then why does the director want to thank you in particular?"

Liu Yifei looked at Wu Jing, a little embarrassed to brag. Wu Jing signaled her to say boldly: "Say it, why don't you say the good thing?"

Liu Yifei held the microphone and said, "Brother Jing was short of money when filming this movie, so I invested a little, probably because of this."

"Wolf Warrior 2" appeared in the remote film list, but the company did not want to invest too much and also restricted Cheng Yu'an's personal investment, so Cheng Yu'an asked Liu Yifei to invest.

Originally planning to invest 100 million, Wu Jing finally received 60 million, accounting for 15% of the investment - the publicity cost was diluted.

For this reason, Liu Yifei can be regarded as the largest investor in "Wolf Warrior 2" besides Wu Jing.

Some reporters were curious about Liu Yifei's investment amount, but this was a business secret. Wu Jing and Liu Yifei both refused to disclose it. Liu Yifei only said: "Not much actually."

The arrival of Liu Yifei and Cheng Yu'an completely heated up the scene, giving it the atmosphere of a blockbuster premiere.

However, the couple had no intention of stealing the limelight and proactively said, "Today is Brother Jing's premiere. You can ask more about Brother Jing and the creators of our film."

After speaking, the two put down the microphone and asked reporters to ask Wu Jing if they had any questions.

The reporter asked Wu Jing: "In the end, when you held the national flag and walked through the war zone, including the Chinese passport that appeared at the end, what did you think about when you were taking these pictures?"

After Wu Jing listened to the questions, she picked up the microphone and said without thinking, "Actually, many of these things have really happened in life.

"In recent years, China's power has become stronger and China has risen. Although we are born in a peaceful country, we do not live in a peaceful era. There are still many wars happening outside. During countless evacuation operations, China

There were basically no casualties or injuries.

"So, there is a popular slogan: having a Chinese face means having a passport to the world. So when I used to say that I immigrated and how I was doing, I always thought about when China

A passport allows you to travel around the world without any hindrance.

"So I have a dream, that is, I hope to be able to... A Chinese passport may not necessarily be able to take you to any place in the world, but I hope that a Chinese passport can bring you back from any place. This is why I took this photo

The meaning of the play."

Wu Jing's words attracted applause from the whole hall. Although there were not many people present and the applause sounded a little sparse, there were indeed many people applauding.

Next, they asked Wu Jing how he shot the 6-minute long shot before the title came out: "My friend next to me kept asking me, was it shot in one shot? We thought it was a bit incredible. Who was the director?

How to take this shot?"

Wu Jing panicked here, or in other words, blurred his statement. He did not admit that these six minutes were a real shot, but calmly explained how these six minutes of underwater fighting were filmed.

Including almost dying underwater.

Cheng Yu'an didn't see the beginning when he came here today, but he had this fragment in his memory.

These six minutes are considered a spliced ​​long shot, so it must have been cut, but Wu Jing and his photographer used some techniques to cleverly cover up the traces of the cut.

But even this kind of pseudo-long shot is still rare in domestic films, and it is even said that it has never happened before. This opening really has the energy of an international blockbuster.

After Wu Jing answered this question, she took the initiative to listen to the audience's reaction: "4077 came into the camera, I almost vomited, today the ugly daughter-in-law is going to meet her parents-in-law, so we are very nervous today, we especially want to hear your reaction,

Even if you say something bad, you can still scold me."

The host immediately gave the floor to the audience.

Cheng Yu'an felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this. Wu Jing's words were a bit humble.

With a simple premiere scene and a lackluster guest lineup, the new director is eager to get the opportunity to communicate with the audience.

"Even if you say something bad, you still have to scold me." These words are very sad.

But fortunately, the last two audience members who communicated had good things to say.

One still praised Wu Jing’s use of long shots at the beginning, and the latter girl said that she had loved it from the first part, and her hands were shaking after watching the second part, so she asked him: “Looking at the easter eggs at the end of the show, should there be a third one?”

Part 2, you blew it up like this in the second part, I don’t know how you plan to blow it up in the third part.”

Wu Jing was very smart and did not explain too much about the explosion scene. Instead, she explained the emotional scene between Leng Feng and Long Xiaoyun, saying that the third part would clearly explain the emotional scene between the two.

The main creators on the stage were named one by one and spoke one by one.

Overall, the atmosphere of the entire premiere was really not very good.

The several main creators on the stage looked very tired. Except for Wu Jing, who had been working hard to arouse the atmosphere of the scene, the other guests were a little absent-minded and even listless.

This feeling even made Cheng Yu'an feel like he was back when he first debuted, when "Sniper Phone Booth" premiered at the Brussels Fantasy Film Festival.

It's even more shabby than this, and the screening room isn't even full.

The host's final question pulled Cheng Yu'an out of his memories: "Do Director Cheng and Yifei have any hopes for our movie "Wolf Warrior 2"?"

Cheng Yu'an said: "I want to say that Wu Jing's efforts will definitely not be in vain. I believe this movie can create very, very good results. I'm waiting for you to treat me to a drink."
