Chapter 279 Could this be Wu Mu’s acting?
The online trend is better than expected.
Some people got refunds though.
After the Penguin platform opens a refund channel.
Approximately 300,000 refunds were generated.
A refund of around three hundred thousand?
Shi Wu hesitated, "Is this okay?"
He went to monitor the progress of Wang Ren's project yesterday and was not present when Wu Mu posted on Weibo.
When we found out about this, we felt like the sky was falling and we looked up at the sky.
He was somewhat worried that this incident would cause a wave of refunds.
Unexpectedly, I only got back about 300,000 yuan?
This may be an unbearable burden for other singers, but for Wu Mu's current sales.
Now is the third day since the album was officially released, and Wu Mu’s sales on the Penguin platform have reached million.
After refunding 300,000, there is still million left, which can be said to be a drizzle.
Shu Mei was also somewhat confused, "Why is it so little?"
She was worried about causing widespread fan protests and refunds, but this is the result?
Well, it was determined to be due to excessive washing.
Those who are still his fans now basically just want to put up with it as long as his songs are good and his looks and personality are good!
Moreover, the sales of Wu Mu’s new album are mainly generated by profit cards, so it is impossible for these people to get a refund.
How can we trigger a refund wave if there is no news among the majority of people?
Wu Mu nodded in satisfaction after getting a refund of 300,000 yuan. Now, many of the fans who were prone to causing trouble have withdrawn.
For the rest of you who want to support me, I will assume that you understand my “Disclaimer”.
His boss was already like this, and even if he was here he couldn't change anything, Shi Wu had no choice but to talk about what he had been busy with these past two days:
"Boss, Yang Rongfa and his team have edited a rough version of the drama. They want to take advantage of the popularity of your new album and organize a small screening."
Yang Rongfa never dreamed that Wu Mu's new album, for which he had only some hope at the beginning and had completely lost hope after learning that Wu Mu would not promote it, would actually give him such a big surprise.
Sales volume on a single platform reached million copies in three days!
Must the total platform sell at least eight or nine million copies during the entire cycle?
How much traffic can this bring to their series?
If he doesn't take advantage of this kind of popularity, he's still a human being.
So after discovering that the number of pre-orders for Wu Mu's new album was really increasing, he rushed the company to cut an initial version of the film.
Then, taking advantage of the popularity of the album’s release, he immediately invited people from all major film and television platforms to watch the film.
Out of confidence in the quality of his own drama and Wu Mu's explosive acting skills in the drama, he also invited some media magazines in the circle, and big self-media bloggers and film critics to liven up the atmosphere and act as supporting actors at that time.
May 11, morning.
In the medium-sized screening room of Yang Rongfa Company.
After Fu Wenchuan took his seat, he secretly observed the surrounding environment.
"There are quite a lot of people, probably at least sixty or seventy."
He was thinking in his mind.
As the editor-in-chief of "Mass Entertainment", one of the most circulated entertainment magazines in the industry, they were naturally on the list of invited guests.
However, he also knew that this film viewing meeting was mainly prepared for the film and television platforms. After all, they, the writers, were not as important as the sponsors who spent real money.
He had already recognized that the people sitting in the front row of the screening room were basically all from the film and television platform.
Penguin Video, iQiyi Video, Youku Video.
"Hey, people from Tik Tok and Bilibili? Why are they here?"
Fu Wenchuan paused, surprised. One of them makes short videos, and the other makes medium and long videos. Could it be that they also want to buy TV series?
But despite being surprised, he still made a note of it in his mind.
This is also good material. If I want to write a report about the popularity of this film later, this incident can also serve as evidence.
In fact, in his opinion, there is a lot that can be written about Yang Rongfa and his team's film.
It’s worth writing about Wang Ren’s transition to TV series after he suffered huge losses from several movies in a row.
Wu Mu brought capital into the group and occupied more than half of the shares. It can also be written about whether it will make a loss or a profit, and whether it will become a new capital force after making a profit.
The exaggerated sales of the album of the same name released by Wu Mu made the fact that the series became popular before it was even aired even more exciting.
Wumu became popular again after the collapse of the house
"I wonder how Wu Mu's acting will be later. Didn't Cui Fu and the others say that Wu Mu's performance in the play was amazing?"
"Yes, I don't know if it's a commercial blow-by-blow for him."
Wu Mu's acting skills?
This cannot be written!
Not to mention the lack of popularity, this kind of thing is always a hot new film in the circle, and Fu Wenchuan, who has been successfully fed with it by Wu Mu several times, said he has a little doubt.
Fu Wenchuan glanced at the people who were talking and found that they were two young men sitting diagonally behind him.
Their faces looked unfamiliar, but from the badges hanging on their chests, he recognized them as two big online self-media bloggers.
Fu Wenchuan was waiting for the new film to start, but before it started, there was a noise outside.
He turned around like everyone else in the screening room and saw a very bright-looking person walking in from the door surrounded by several people.
"Noonwood?"
"He's here too?"
There was a sudden burst of murmurs in the screening room.
Many people saw Master Wu Mu for the first time.
It was also the first time that Fu Wenchuan saw this person. He looked at the person and found that he looked exactly like the one on the Internet, with a very distinctive appearance.
I'm afraid you'll never forget this face once you've seen it.
Apart from his face being too distinctive as described on the Internet, this person's personality is also exactly the same as described on the Internet and in rumors.
After coming in, he looked around the screening room, nodded and greeted everyone, then walked straight to a few seats on the left side of the front row and sat down.
This... It is understandable that I don't say a few polite words to them to leave a good impression on everyone, after all, there are too many people.
But you don’t even want to say a few words to the real bigwigs of the video platforms in the front row?
I can only say that this person really doesn't look like a star in the circle.
Fu Wenchuan shook his head slightly in his heart, still thinking that this person was a little bit unreliable.
Who would have thought that the person from the Penguin Video platform in the front row would stand up on his own initiative, walk towards Wu Mu, and greet him with a smile.
Then, led by the people on the Penguin Video platform, other film producers also stood up one after another.
Fu Wenchuan was stunned.
Not long after Wu Mu sat down, Yang Rongfa and Wang Ren came in with their people.
Yang Rongfa was undoubtedly very good at handling things. Not only did he thank everyone on the stage, he also individually thanked the visiting platform producers.
After the speech, the lights in the screening room were dimmed little by little, and the film officially began to play.
"Clang, clang, clang~"
"Speed up a bit. Master Wang, make it louder."
"Listen." "Woo~"
The film begins with a steam train rumbling through a cornfield, and the boilerman asks the train driver to start the train.
Then the loud train whistle sounded.
wonderful!
Fu Wenchuan praised secretly.
I didn’t expect that Wang Ren could really capture the texture of a movie in the TV series.
Like Wang Ren’s previous films, it has a unique texture in its simplicity.
This shot at the very beginning immediately reveals the style of the series.
A drama that has such shots, no matter what the story is like, can at least get a high score technically.
As he continued reading, Fu Wenchuan discovered that the story was not as confusing as he had imagined. Instead, it was quite concise and fast-paced.
The story begins with a flashback from the protagonist Wang An, who was driving a train eighteen years ago, to him driving a taxi eighteen years later, and then his brother-in-law Gong Biao appears.
The two went looking for the person who used the fake license plate because Gong Biao's taxi was hit by a person with a fake license plate. They finally found him but lost him in the cornfield at the beginning of the story.
The two people's situations are interspersed in the middle. Wang An has a son who studies painting and an old lover who gives him massages and is obviously having problems. Gong Biao has a wife who works in a beauty salon. His wife is not very satisfied with him, but he is still happy.
No shot is wasted, and all of them neatly explain the protagonist's situation while advancing the plot.
Just
Fu Wenchuan watched Wang An chase into the cornfield, then flashed back to eighteen years ago and shook his head slightly.
There's really no way to change the way these art directors like to play tricks.
Of course, this kind of flashbacks and flashbacks are nothing to him, he has seen them many times.
But for the vast majority of ordinary audiences, doing so will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of watching the film, which is not good for a drama that wants to be a big hit.
Fortunately, after flashing back to eighteen years ago, the pace is still fast. Hong Kong businessmen disappeared, workers protested by stopping work, a dismemberment case occurred, the protagonist Wang An got involved, and his brother-in-law from eighteen years ago appeared.
The first episode hasn't even ended yet, and it has explained so many things in a busy but not chaotic way.
Fu Wenchuan was so engrossed in watching the film that he almost forgot about Wu Mu. Wu Mu has not been seen in the film so far.
until.
The screen went dark as if a curtain had fallen, and the first episode seemed to have ended. Everyone at the screening couldn't help but whisper to each other.
The screen lit up again.
A school welcome bus drove across the screen and stopped in front of a medical school.
The camera first focused on the students slowly getting off the bus, and then moved little by little towards the entrance of the medical school.
Two people sitting at the entrance of the medical school appeared in the camera.
This shot is the scene where Wu Mu and Sun Yueqing first met in the drama that was filmed previously.
Fu Wenchuan was stunned as he looked at the person in the semi-dark shadow on the screen, with the shadow of the banner swaying above his head and the faint smell of Wu Mu.
Noon Wood?
This shot is quite interesting.
A hint of surprise flashed across Fu Wenchuan's eyes.
Obviously, the tone of the film has not changed at all, but it is as if Wang Ren's overall gray, very simple and down-to-earth lens is covered with a bright filter.
Wu Mu's appearance seemed to raise the brightness of the screen by several levels.
Suddenly the picture and atmosphere became brighter.
When this performance appeared, from the sudden whispers in the screening room, it was clear that everyone was somewhat startled.
The scene on the screen continued, Wu Mu's friend approached her, and then Sun Yueqing got off the car
After watching so many films, Fu Wenchuan can already feel some of the director's little tricks and applications in the shots.
For example, in this shot, the screen gives an over-the-shoulder perspective of Sun Yueqing, as if he is observing the situation in the medical school from his perspective, moving slowly.
Then, as he moved, Wu Mu's figure appeared in the camera.
After a slight shake that seemed a little unstable, the camera fixed on him, with him occupying the center position.
Fu Wenchuan could discover the purpose of this little shaking technique, but even though he knew the purpose of this little shaking technique, he seemed to really feel that Sun Yueqing, who got off the car, seemed to be following the camera in her heart and shook slightly.
Then everyone followed Sun Yueqing, who was swaying in her heart, all the way to Wu Mu, greeted him and asked for directions, "Classmate, how do I get to Building 8?"
Wu Mu, who was listening to the tape, looked up.
He was originally in the shadow, but as he raised his head, the shadow faded away.
Wu Mu appeared in the sunlight, his face shining with golden light.
"Fuck!"
A sudden cry of "Fuck!" was heard in the projection room.
This shot is really maxed out!
There was no longer a flash of surprise in Fu Wenchuan's eyes, but his entire body was shocked.
Is this how you take photos?
Can Wang Ren also shoot this kind of scene?
If the quality of the previous episodes was attractive and fascinated him, then this shot just now completely astonished him.
The same thought flashed through his mind as did Zhao Qihui before. If this shot was used as the cover of their magazine, it would probably increase the sales of their magazine by several percent.
Why do I suddenly feel something is wrong?
Before he came, he was not even thinking about Wu Mu's amazing performance. He was actually guessing how Wu Mu would hold back.
As a result, this shot, not only does it drag the show down, but all the other things in front of it don’t seem as memorable as this shot.
Fu Wenchuan thought strangely in his heart.
Originally, this shot was enough to amaze him, but who would have thought that the series was not over yet.
The scene flashes back to eighteen years later. After receiving a photo of his back, the protagonist Wang An cooked a table of dishes, poured himself a glass of wine, and then slowly looked across from him.
Opposite him, Wu Mu appeared on the screen, his body wet, his face pale, his whole body trembling slightly, and his eyes full of fear.
Fu Wenchuan, whose astonishment had not yet faded, froze in an instant, and his whole body seemed to be suddenly pushed into ice water, with his hands and feet freezing cold.
What the hell!
Holy shit! !
Could this be Wu Mu! ?
Could this be Wu Mu's acting?!
Forget about the stunning shot before, it can be said that Wu Mu performed well thanks to his good looks.
What's up with the acting in this scene!?
He got goosebumps all over his body just by looking at it!
At first glance, it was as if I were really seeing a drowning person struggling in pain. I felt so empathetic that my hair stood on end.
Fu Wenchuan took a breath of cold air.
This is too fucking exaggerated!
He had previously thought that Wu Mu's new album was the biggest highlight of this series, but now he found out that he was completely wrong.
It turns out that Wu Mu’s acting, which has always been criticized for being awkward, is the biggest highlight of this drama!
It turns out that what Cui Fu and the others said before was true.
