Zhao Rang played a game too big, and after the general plot of the script was exposed, it caused dissatisfaction among fans of both Cui Xing and Zhu Pan.
However, not only did the crew of "The 99th Love Letter" fail to come forward to clarify the matter in a timely manner, but Zhao Rang deliberately added fuel to the fire and hyped the matter up even more.
He Cong actually had some dealings with people in the entertainment industry and knew that this was necessary to promote the film in some way to increase its popularity.
But in her opinion, the film already had three living stars: Zhao Rang, Cui Xing and Zhu Pan, so Zhao Rang didn't need to use this method like other small directors.
But he still used the topic of the movie to stir up trouble, which made He Cong have a much worse impression of him.
Especially when Zhao Rang said that as long as the box office of the movie exceeded 100 million on the first day, he would let everyone see the true face of the "Goddess with Back", many people were already waiting to laugh at him.
At the premiere, what was unexpected was Zhao Rang's choice.
He did not show the entire film, but rather cut the film into a 40-minute trailer.
When the movie started, the lights around dimmed. Before the screen lit up, He Cong heard a piano solo. The music was so beautiful that when it sounded in the dim environment, He Cong's frown suddenly relaxed.
Zhao Rang is indeed Zhao Rang. No matter how much He Cong dislikes his hype method this time, his movie is indeed unique.
The 'ding-ding-dong-dong' sound of the piano is like the cleanest and most refreshing spring water in the early morning. Every second is the greatest gift and enjoyment for the hearing.
Everyone who attended the premiere knows that it was Zhao Rang who spent a lot of money and used all his connections to enable Hong Kong musician Shi Jiadong and his team to hone their skills over several years.
It really sounds extraordinary now.
In any case, listening to this piano solo at the beginning was like eating a spicy and delicious appetizer before a big meal, which immediately made people feel refreshed.
Then the music gradually faded away, while the noisy voices gradually became louder, as if one had suddenly returned to reality from a dream. Such a sharp contrast made many people frown, and their mood was immediately controlled by the rhythm of the movie shot by Zhao Rang.
"Please make way."
Cui Xing's voice sounded in the movie. He was wearing an old shirt, his hair was combed in an old style, and his face was shy and nervous.
He was carrying a bucket of mineral water, and the old leather shoes on his feet clearly showed that he came from a poor family.
What deserved He Cong's attention was his pair of slender hands that did not match his attire when he was holding the bottle of mineral water on his shoulders. On the large screen, the camera flashed across his hands, but even this instant was enough to draw people's attention to his hands.
His fingernails were trimmed very neatly, and when he was struggling for life and suffering hardships, he still tried his best to take care of his hands, even though his forehead was covered with sweat and his face looked disheveled.
Li Qingyang carried the mineral water upstairs. The customer opened the door. He carefully put the water down, took off his shoes and placed them neatly outside the door. After helping the customer fill the bottle of water, he received thirty yuan in return.
The customer had a piano at home. After he filled the bottle of mineral water, his eyes lingered on the piano for a long time before he left.
He spent the whole day running around delivering water and earned a lot of money. After handing it over to his boss, he received the day's salary with his back feeling a little bent.
The boss was still chattering in the store, calculating the recent business volume. When Li Qingyang came out of the store, he turned left and right on the street, entered the mall, and soon stopped in front of a piano store.
The expression on his face showed that this was not his first time here. The store was brightly lit and filled with rows of beautiful and elegant pianos. He stood outside the glass window and looked for a long time before turning around and leaving.
He had a frail mother at home, so after he returned home, he put away his somewhat depressed expression and took out all the money he had earned that day.
When He Cong saw this, he was completely brought into the movie by Zhao Rang.
If she hadn't received a message on her phone that suddenly vibrated and woke her up, she might still be immersed in the plot and unable to extricate herself.
The theme of the movie is pointed out at the beginning, highlighting the embarrassing situation of Li Qingyang, played by Cui Xing, and his love for piano.
Her idol really acted well, bringing to life the role of a young man who has dreams but is forced by life and has to put on a smile in front of his mother.
The message came from a fan who has been following her for a long time. She had already announced on Weibo early in the morning that she would attend the premiere of "The 99th Love Letter" tonight. Now someone couldn't help but send a message to inquire about the inside story.
'Has the goddess from behind appeared?'
In private messages, fans couldn't wait to start asking her questions, but she replied with a "no" and then concentrated on watching the movie.
Li Qingyang had a rough life. His father worked on a construction site in his early years, but he fell and became disabled, so he could only do simple jobs. His mother was in poor health, so he knew how to be the head of the household at a very young age.
He likes piano and is very talented, and the school music teacher is happy to teach him.
Unfortunately, his family environment was not good and his family had no money to buy a piano for him to practice. His favorite thing to do was to go to a German brand piano store in the mall and look at it from afar whenever he was in a bad mood. Looking at those pianos with exquisite and beautiful appearance, he felt hopeful.
Zhu Pan plays his childhood sweetheart who grew up with him and knows his thoughts. Whenever Li Qingyang is tired from work, she always draws a picture of a piano and gives it to him.
They portrayed the intimate relationship between men and women in the movie very well. When He Cong saw the interaction between the two, he felt sweetness bubbling in his heart.
Until one day, Li Qingyang carried water and entered the mall again. After finishing his work, he walked towards the piano store as if bewitched.
He took small steps at first, looking a little hesitant, then he took bigger steps, and when he was almost there, he started to run, his hair fluttering in the wind.
These three simple walking movements highlighted Li Qingyang's inner desire at the moment. Many people in the premiere hall were inspired by him and began to look forward to it.
Faint piano music came from the music store. It was the love-sounding music that played at the beginning of the film. Li Qingyang was stunned for a moment, slowed down his pace, and walked to the glass window.
He first listened with his eyes closed, and then moved his gaze inside the music store.
At that moment, the camera gave him a close-up. His eyes widened and his pupils shrank slightly, which was clearly captured by the camera. (To be continued)
