"The Little Chef of Shengjing" was broadcasted for five consecutive days. Before the second screening, Lu Yao played wonderful clips from the first two episodes of "The Little Chef" on the advertising screen in the lobby. First, there was a highlight scene where diners were conquered by Qianlixiang wontons, and then there was a hilarious scene of the little chef and Prince Jing "battle of wits and courage".
Guests who have watched the show saw this two-minute clip and recalled the content of the first show of "The Little Chef". They immediately remembered that the second show of "The Little Chef" would be shown tomorrow and started to arrange to buy tickets.
Those who haven't watched "The Little Chef" saw the highlight clips and finally found the origin of the Qianlixiang wontons that have been popular in East Market recently. They were also attracted by the unique way the prince and the cook get along with each other, and secretly thought that this movie seems to be really good.
On the day of the second premiere of "The Little Chef of Shengjing", the waiting guests lined up to buy tickets early, and there were also many new customers who were attracted to watch the first show by the clips.
With three films and only two screening halls, it was difficult to arrange the screenings, so they had to temporarily reduce the number of screenings of "The World's Number One".
Together with the second show of "The Little Chef of Shengjing", the second popcorn and cola advertisement was also released, starring Meng Qin, Ning Yun and Qing, with snack bar clerks and theme park NPCs as background actors.
Meng Qin and Ning Yun wore ancient costumes and played a newly engaged couple.
During the Lantern Festival on August 15th, a man decided to invite his fiancée to watch a movie.
They picked a new thriller and bought two popcorn and coke combos at the ticket office.
Maybe it was because it was a holiday, or maybe it was midnight, there was no other audience at the movie except the two of them.
The people on the screen were screaming as they were chased by monsters, while Meng Qin and Ning Yun had no expression on their faces and kept eating popcorn.
With a loud "bang", sparks appeared on the big screen and smoke began to appear. Then a horrifying scene appeared - the monster that was chasing people actually crawled out of the broken screen.
Audience in the screening room: “…”
The people of the Dawu Dynasty were almost scared to death. They thought it was a light-hearted and interesting advertisement like the last time, so why did it suddenly happen
They are also watching a movie. Will those little characters crawl out of the screen
So scary!
On the screen, Meng Qin pulled Ning Yun to run away, the two holding hands, and the other hand was reluctant to put down the popcorn and Coke, and they were eventually forced into a corner by the monster.
The horrifying and inhuman roar was close to my ears, and a huge drop of saliva fell on the ground with a "plop", leaving a hole as big as a fist.
Meng Qin and Ning Yun were filled with fear and had nowhere to escape, so they could only hug each other tightly.
In the screening room, some people were afraid to watch and covered their eyes with their hands, but they couldn't help but open their fingers and watch carefully through the gaps between their fingers.
The next second, the monster's sharp claws slowly stretched out, accompanied by heavy breathing, and with two "swishes", it easily took the popcorn and Coke from the hands of the two people.
The monster tilted his head back and poured the Coke into his mouth, gulping it down. He then grabbed a handful of popcorn and stuffed it into his bloody mouth. Finally, he held the half-empty popcorn bucket with a satisfied look on his face, turned around and left with a "da da da" sound effect.
Leaving behind the confused men and women in the corner, and the equally confused audience in front of the screen.
Is that all
What's the meaning
About two seconds later, the screen showed a close-up of the popcorn and cola combo. The monster also poked its head out of the small window, grinning with its big mouth full of sharp teeth, and burped with satisfaction.
Le Han and Rong Shenghua sat in the corner of the back row, exhaling slowly, and were left speechless by the advertisement.
It was so terrifying when the monster crawled out.
Now when I think about it again, I want to laugh.
Just now, someone in the front row jumped up in fright, and someone else couldn't help screaming. It turns out that this advertisement just wants to say "Popcorn is good and Coke is good, come and buy some."
Wan Baozhu and Hongyu also came today, still dressed in men's clothes.
The position was too far away from the screen, so Hongyu couldn't see clearly, but her expression was still normal.
Wan Baozhu understood the advertisement. She opened her folding fan to cover her mouth, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
In the ticket hall, Fu Chi stood in the lounge area and watched the ad. He then turned around and asked Lu Yao: "Who shot this ad?"
Lu Yao was selecting a new movie from a pile of candidates. Hearing this, he looked up and said, "The one with popcorn and Coke? I discussed this with everyone at the snack bar. What's wrong?"
Fu Chi pushed his glasses up on his nose and whispered, "The idea is old-fashioned, but it's too advanced for the people here, especially the scene where the monster crawls out of the screen."
To be honest, this advertisement uses two twists very well.
Before the monster crawled out in the first half, the male and female protagonists were in a relatively relaxed environment and atmosphere, and a shot of buying popcorn was deliberately given to show the content of the advertisement.
The monster in the middle suddenly crawled out of the screen, released a smoke bomb, and instantly caught the audience's attention.
This second was so terrifying.
At the end, the young couple was chased into a corner by a monster. The monster's saliva and claws all hinted that a terrible scene was about to happen, but in the end the monster only took away the Coke and popcorn.
The rhythm is loose-tight-loose, and finally a close-up is given to reinforce the impression that the cola and popcorn are delicious. Even the monsters are impressed by the deliciousness.
Moreover, the special effects of the monster were very realistic. Fu Chi had seen many strange props and special effects, but he still felt that this monster was very realistic.
In this era where people are simple and have not experienced information explosion, if something goes a little too far, people are very likely to take it seriously.
After listening to Fu Chi's analysis, Lu Yao curled his eyes and wanted to laugh but tried hard to hold it back. It was hard to say whether the monster crawling out of the screen was real, played by Qing, the guard of the paradise.
"What are you laughing at?" Fu Chi was puzzled.
Lu Yao shook his head repeatedly, "Nothing, I just think that he is worthy of being a director, and his analysis is very comprehensive."
Fu Chi frowned: "The owner doesn't seem to be worried at all that people here might misunderstand that monsters might crawl out of the screen in the cinema?"
Lu Yao: "It is normal to have such misunderstandings. We can just dispel the rumors and correct them when the time comes."
Opening a cinema in such an era is likely to lead to all kinds of misunderstandings.
But she didn't want to shrink back because of fear.
To achieve the goal of "looking far and knowing new things", it is far from enough to just watch a few costume films that cater to the basic conditions of this era.
Lu Yao has a long film-making plan, which requires him to gradually improve people's acceptance and to find opportunities to open up the space for imagination.
There was a study next door, and Lu Yao would occasionally go there to take a look and buy a few books.
She never thought that all people of this era were stupid and dull. They also had many ideas about the sky, farming, and shipping, but due to the limitations of the times, both theory and practice developed very slowly.
Fu Chi couldn't fully understand it and felt that the owner was acting imprudently, especially in times like this.
Lu Yao did not intend to continue explaining, and instead said: "The post-production of the movie I just bought is almost done. I plan to release a trailer in three days and officially release it in five days."
By then, it will coincide with the third premiere of "The Little Chef of Shengjing", and the two new films are likely to compete with each other.
But there is nothing we can do as there are too few screening rooms.
Maybe I can relax a little after completing this task.
Fu Chi thought of the film that Lu Yao bought from his company, and was surprised to find that the owner might have planned it long ago.
The film is called "Meeting You Again in the Time of Falling Flowers", which is also a costume comedy, but it is completely different from "The Little Chef of Shengjing".
There is a special setting in "Meeting You Again in Falling Flowers" - the male and female protagonists accidentally exchange bodies, and the two unrelated people are forced to be tied together, triggering a series of ridiculous stories.
After Fu Chi thought about it carefully, he felt that the store owner was simply playing with fire. It was possible that the store owner would be caught and forced to build a fire as soon as the third movie was released.
Lu Yao stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "What are you thinking about? Your face looks so solemn."
Fu Chi came back to his senses, "Nothing. Was there much change in the film?"
Lu Yao shook his head: "It's a work from a few years ago, but the content is good, so there's no need for major changes. The main focus is on subtitles and dubbing."
-
In the screening room, the second show of "The Little Chef of Shengjing" was playing the exciting plot.
The young cook was falsely accused of eating unclean food, and some people vomited and had diarrhea after eating the wontons from her shop.
The villain even carried the patient to the door of the restaurant and made a scene, attracting a crowd of onlookers. No matter how the cook explained, it was of no use.
At the critical moment, Prince Jing appeared, exposed the fact that the man on the stretcher was pretending to be sick, uncovered the villain's conspiracy, and restored the reputation of the little cook in time.
The young cook Yu Zhengzheng had a slightly changed impression of Jing Shizi, and to express her gratitude, she took the initiative to treat him to a meal.
The violent prince began to show the second attribute of his personality - tsundere.
Although he said he didn't care, he was secretly looking forward to it. He even couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and practiced boxing in the yard.
The next morning, Yu Zhengzheng closed the shop for half a day, bought a fresh tender duck, made a fragrant roast duck, and cut some green onions and cucumbers and steamed pancakes to eat with it.
The prince waited distractedly until noon, then left his two study companions and went to the young cook's restaurant alone.
After thinking about it all night, the prince became unhappy again when he saw there was only a plate of duck meat on the table.
The young cook personally rolled duck meat, scallion shreds, and cucumber shreds with a small pancake, brushed them with sauce, and put them on the plate in front of the prince, "Try it, you will like it."
Prince Jing stole glances at the cook's actions with his phoenix eyes. His anger subsided a lot, but he didn't want to be seen. He picked up the roll with a stern face, took a bite, was stunned, took another bite, and his eyes widened.
Realizing his loss of composure, the prince froze for a moment, and said in a hard tone, "Another one."
Yu Zhengzheng lowered her head to hold back her laughter, and her hands moved quickly.
The roast duck meal ended in an awkward and inexplicable atmosphere.
The audience outside the screen couldn’t understand why, but when they saw these two people interacting with each other, the corners of their mouths couldn’t help but curl up.
Zhu Zhu was the ticket collector again today. With Lu Yao's permission, she hid in the aisle and watched the second show after the movie started.
The little girl had a pair of sparkling eyes and her hands were clenched tightly together. The interaction between the little cook and Prince Jing was so interesting.
Her girlish heart, which had been hurt by Ye Qingzhou and Junior Sister Ningshuang, was almost fully revived.
After the second screening, Wan Baozhu walked out of the cinema, fanning herself, "We really should let the Prince of Jin see this play."
The reason is simple. The Prince of Jin in the Dawu Dynasty was just like the Prince of Jing in this play, domineering and violent.
The noble ladies of Liangjing ran away when they saw him, so the prince was over seventeen years old and still hadn't married.
The second screening of "The Little Chef of Shengjing" had only lasted one day when it triggered a heated discussion. The popularity of the film soared explosively, and all the major restaurants on Song'an Street began to imitate the roast duck that appeared in "The Little Chef". The popularity was so high.
The happy enemies, the little cook and Prince Jing, were also talked about by the people of Liangjing.
Along with "Cooking Lady", there was also a monster popcorn commercial. At some point, rumors started to spread that monsters would appear in movie theaters.
