Chapter 532 Is there a chance to win the Oscar?
Li Ye's words still worked. Wu Runfu and Chen Sihai and other roommates really took the movie tickets and bravely made appointments with a few female classmates.
Several people once again snatched the only little bit of oil left in the dormitory, picked a few sets of the best clothes, cleaned up a little "fashionable" shadow, and made themselves extremely beautiful for the movies at night.
In the 1980s, the entertainment format was very single, so for a long time, eating, watching movies, and shopping were all the "three standard features of love" among mainland couples, and watching movies was particularly exciting.
Because the movie theater is relatively dark, couples who are attracted to each other are not so reserved and shy when they want to do some small moves. As long as they can hold hands or something, it is a substantial breakthrough.
In these days, if you can hold the girl's hand, then there will be a deep bond between the two. Unlike decades later, when the fuck children have had several fights, they will still be dispersed.
However, Wu Runfu and others who had been dealing with each other for a long time finally failed to make up their plans.
It wasn't that those girls broke the appointment, but when everyone arrived at the cinema, they found that there were many college students coming today, including boys and girls.
If a girl like Bian Jingjing and Wenleyu who had been an old couple, she would naturally take the seats with Li Ye and Sun Xianjin.
But those girls who were invited for the first time were basically sitting with the familiar girls because of so many acquaintances.
"I said, Brother No. 1, what are you doing? So many tickets were given out at once, which completely disrupted our plan."
"That's right, all hundreds of tickets are in a row, so you can't be smarter and break the tickets into every corner! Really, I've wasted the last bit of oil."
""
Li Ye really didn't expect this situation. Old Xiong Zhaoyi from Chang'an Film Factory got the best-placed ticket, but Li Yeluo complained.
"Okay, are you just so patient?" Li Ye curled his lips and said, "Since they accepted your movie tickets today, they just think you guys are okay,
Since you think you are okay, won’t you finish chasing me tomorrow? Can you use your brain?”
"Use your brain, do you think they are asking them to calculate math problems?"
Sun Xianjin, who came with him, also said contemptuously: "When they got the ticket, they knew they were in charge. Why didn't they go to the scalpers there to exchange for tickets?
With their IQ, as long as they use their brains, there are definitely more ways than difficulties, but they are just lazy and are still waiting for the girl to chase them!"
""
Sun Xianjin and Li Ye no longer paid attention to a few of the top student roommates in the mathematics department. They went to the cinema in pairs with Wen Leyu, and stuffed a handful of dog food to a few roommates who were already very depressed.
"They're right!"
"Right, can you try again tomorrow?"
"Yeah, try again tomorrow."
Several roommates once again gathered confidence.
...........
Because of Li Ye's interference, the filming of "Lonely Army in the Countryside" not only introduced funds from Hong Kong Island, but also introduced the promotional and promotional concept of Hong Kong Island.
Starting two weeks ago, various preheated soft articles have appeared in major newspapers, such as "80 million blockbusters" and "historical war masterpieces". In this year, they have become super advertisements and have achieved a strong publicity effect.
Anyway, there is no fraud promotion these days, so how amazing it is!
So today's cinemas are full, and many people would rather spend a high price to buy scalper tickets than come in to see if the 80 million is worth it or not.
As it turns out, a few cents of movie tickets are very worth it.
Before the movie starts, the audience first sees a short film.
This kind of short film was very popular in the 1980s, and a positive energy short film "Some advanced unit, advanced individual" is often placed in front of the main film.
Later generations of actor Zhang Yi had a work "One Second", which describes a prisoner who insisted on seeing his daughter in the movie, and his daughter appeared in such a short news film.
However, the short film in front of "Lonely Army in the Countryside" is not such a news film, but a large-scale musical MV.
As the music with a strong historical charm sounded, the grand scene of the prosperous Tang Dynasty appeared on the screen.
"The 5,000-year history of the flower-planting nation, of which for 4,800 years, we have always been the center of the world, and the influence of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was one of the peaks.
The Tang envoys from all over the world are learning our economy and culture, thus spreading the influence of this land to all directions.”
The photography used in short films, the cross-film shooting methods, music, colors, animations, and narration are simply amazing.
When the audience watched this short film, they were instilled with a sense of consciousness in their minds - we have always been the world's number one, but now we are just temporarily dormant.
Wen Leyu quietly approached Li Ye and whispered: "Is this short film the result of persistence?"
Li Ye turned his head and leaned into Wen Leyu's ear and said, "It is the result of our insistence, and you have your contributions."
Wen Leyu shook his itchy ears, puffed his mouth and gently hit Li Ye, leaving a little distance from him.
There are so many classmates around you! You have to pay attention to the impact.
This short film is indeed Li Ye's persistence.
Director Xie and others didn't understand why they spent a lot of money to shoot a five-minute short music film. A single ancient music made people scratch their heads.
But with the insistence of the investor representative Mr. Huo Renqiang, the short film was still made.
"Why are you always so implicit and humble? We should tell our ancestors in the most straightforward way,
A strong hometown and a low-key hometown, which one do you think overseas Chinese would like?”
This is the reason why the once young and dandy Ah Qiang of Hong Kong Island.
In fact, "Dunhuang" filmed by the stupid Japanese later also showed the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty in the film. After all, the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty in the film cannot avoid it. If the Tang Dynasty is not awesome, what would you send international students to do?
But they did not show the historical status of the Tang Empire positively. Those viewers who watched the movies only saw the grand historical scenes, but did not understand the specific significance.
Aqiang's reason was finally recognized by everyone. Changan Film Studio not only found the best soundtrack, but also used relationships to use aviation shooting.
And this short film also played its due role.
After the main film began, when the rows of cavalry were pressing towards the enemy in a dark way, all the audience was thinking in their hearts - "It turns out that this was the world's number one army at that time."
Even if the Tang Empire lost in the end, it was still the only one in the Western Regions Protectorate to compete with the powerful Central Asian coalition at that time for the world's first place. If it lost, it would be the second in the world.
When the princess played by Pan Hong appeared in a gorgeous phoenix wedding dress, Li Ye heard the exclamations at the scene.
"So beautiful! Who is this?"
"Princess?"
"Who am I talking about the actor?"
"I didn't recognize her, I just looked at her clothes. It looked so good."
Wen Leyu's little hand grabbed Li Ye's arm tightly, as if he was urgently saying, "I want this too, husband, I want this too."
The Chinese people in the early 1980s were far less confident than later generations. Many people think that the developed countries in the West are more advanced and stronger than the mainland.
Even if the other party is just a small place with a big booster, many people think that the other party is good in everything, even the clothes are good.
This movie is about letting the audience know that we were also strong and that we have the potential to be strong again.
When the movie ended, a group of gray-haired Western Region veterans went through a lot of hardships and finally saw the thick walls of Chang'an City, the audience had completely accepted this consciousness of "we are strong again after all."
"Smack sex~"
After the lights were on in the theater, all the audience members began to applaud.
Wen Leyu took Li Ye's hand and walked out.
"What are you doing in such a hurry? Be careful to squeeze it out."
"Go and buy tickets quickly and read them again. I want to look at the princess's clothes again. I think her fourth-piece clothes are different from what I painted at that time."
""
Thanks to the comic version of "Lonely Army in the Countryside", the crew spent a lot of money to produce props and costumes based on the characters in the comics, especially women's clothing, and several of them were designed by Wenleyu.
Unfortunately, Wen Leyu and Li Ye didn’t buy tickets. There were more than two of them who wanted to see it for the second time, and many couples had to insist on watching it for the second time.
It would be fine if it was just a historical war movie, but Li Ye added the love scenes of warriors and princesses, and there was also a gorgeous Tang Dynasty fashion show. Can it not attract audiences to watch two or three?
Wen Leyu looked at the long ticket buying team and suddenly asked Li Ye: "If this movie is very popular, will you pay for it?"
Li Ye laughed in a low voice and said, "Our family has investments. The more people we see, the more money we share."
Wen Leyu immediately narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "This is almost the same."
.........
"Lonely Army in the Countryside" is very popular, very popular.
The old bear from Changan Film Factory was busy for several days, and it was not until nearly a week later that he brought a group of actors and crew to the Iron Literature Society.
Lao Xiong first asked someone to put down several large baskets of gifts, and then held Li Ye's hand tightly.
"Brother Li Ye, it's really thanks to you this time! We gave us scripts and helped us attract foreign capital. It seems that our video is going to be a great success."
"Brother Xiong, it's too early to say that it's a big success now," Li Ye smiled faintly: "It's only a big success when the film wins an award overseas!"
"Yes, yes, it's too early, it's too early."
Director Xiong immediately changed his words and said, "The news has also been heard from Nanyang. Since the film was released simultaneously, it has been full of events. Not to mention whether it is profitable or not, look at the comments in these newspapers."
Director Xiong took out a few newspapers, which turned out to be Chinese newspapers from Li Jiapo and Malay.
"Brother Li Ye, look at this article," Director Xiong pointed to one of the newspapers and said nervously and excitedly: "They said that our video will probably be the box office number one this year, and there is also a chance to win the Oscars. Do you think this is possible?"
""
All the actors and crew members on the scene looked at Li Ye silently.
Their eyes were as excited as Director Xiong.
"It's not difficult to be the first in the box office, and there will definitely be opportunities for Oscars, but it's not small."
Li Ye did not speak impractically. Although a few years later, there will be a "Last Emperor" that will win nine awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Photography, Best Artist, Best Costume Design, Best Editing, Best Soundtrack, and Best Original Soundtrack.
But that movie was co-production from Britain, Italy and China.
There are so many subtle reasons for this kind of Oscar award.
