It's quite cold in the room... Oh yes, I forgot to close the window.

After closing the window and changing his clothes, he looked around... and found that there seemed to be nothing worth noting.

So I decided to go out.

Slipping away.

After driving all the way to Wangfujing, he put on a mask, wrapped his clothes tightly and got out of the car.

There are many people in Wangfujing, and many people wear masks. So his appearance did not arouse the curiosity of others.

After going upstairs, he saw many people standing and sitting in the movie hall.

On New Year's Day, there were no blockbuster movies except "The King". Although there were many new films released throughout January, they all gave way to "The King."

Obviously, the filmmakers thought it was not a good idea to compete with "The King" for their film.

Not necessarily qualified.

As for the movie posters that can be seen in theaters currently, apart from "Jinling", there is only one "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" that can compete with it.

But Xu Xin doesn't know what the movie "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" is like.

He hasn't watched it yet.

But the box office is quite high. As of the last time I paid attention, it seems to have exceeded 400 million.

There are still 20 days left before the film is released. It is almost certain that "33 Days of Love" will surpass the previous box office of 6.1 billion. Mr. Xu's move is quite stable.

This "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" uses 3D technology and is technically the first pure 3D martial arts movie. The starting ticket price is 60, which is definitely more than "33 Days".

According to the media, Xiangjiang Film is once again at the forefront of Chinese-language films in terms of film technology updates and iterations. Xiangjiang Film is about to usher in its second spring...

But this is just media flattery.

Anyone who knows the industry knows that 3D shooting is actually not a great technology.

Being on the cutting edge is an exaggeration.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but wonder...whether he should also look for a story script suitable for 3D shooting.

But considering that he still has unpaid debts...

forget it.

After exchanging his ticket and buying a bucket of popcorn and happy water, he held the tray and waited patiently for the movie to start.

Sitting in the rest area, watching the people coming and going, my eyes began to feel empty.

Maybe it’s because I haven’t paid much attention to China during these few months abroad.

Looking at the bustling cinema, he had a mess of thoughts in his mind. There were all kinds of things... But he had to admit that even though he knew that today was New Year's Day, there were so many people watching the movie that even the captain in the rest area

It is normal for the chairs to be crowded and filled with people...

But, he really likes it.

There are many people watching the movie, and he really likes it.

A thriving market.

…

Soon, queues started to line up at the 3 o'clock venue.

Xu Xin, who had not eaten at noon, followed the crowd into the venue with popcorn in hand and Coke in hand.

After finding his seat, he waited for a while and found that the entire theater was full, both front and back.

At 3 o'clock sharp, the movie starts.

As a group of girls ran, the buzzing, booming and occasional passing bullets from the live sound effects came to mind.

He took off his mask in the dark and stuffed popcorn into his mouth.

Even though he had been involved in the film project since its establishment, he had selected some girls. He also knew what the story was about...

But after the movie was screened, he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the arrangement of the scenes, the shots, and the atmosphere created:

"Older gingers are more spicy."

Although it was also the first time for the old man to film a war scene.

But just by not exaggerating the war scenes, just listening to the background sound effects combined with the mist like clouds of war, you can feel the atmosphere... Even if it is just the beginning, he understands...

This movie... must not be bad.

And this is also the case.

2 hours and 20 minutes later.

He listened to the song "Qinhuai Scene" and looked at the behind-the-scenes production list of the film...

The popcorn and coke are empty.

"Qinhuai Scene" was also mixed with the sobs of some female audience members.

There was no applause or cheers or cheers.

Quite the opposite...

Including Xu Xin himself, everyone felt the same depressed mood.

Even when Father John, played by Bale, led the children to escape from Nanjing, Xu Xin was not happy at all.

His mind went back to the beginning of the film...

The ruins of Nanjing City at the beginning.

And his evaluation of the film has actually become polarized.

To be honest, what he likes most is the beginning.

It starts when the girls enter the church... although the narrative of the film only enters the main line. But the content of the main line...

how to say.

Very wonderful.

Everyone's acting skills are also outstanding.

But from his perspective, it pales in comparison to the escape scene at the beginning.

The whole story is a very complete and wonderful story.

No matter from the perspective of camera arrangement or aesthetics, it is also the best work of the old man.

But in his heart, the beginning sequence is the pinnacle of the entire film.

So much so that whether it was the song "Scenery of Qinhuai" or the Thirteen Hairpins, in his mind they all seemed to pale in comparison to the opening scene.

It seemed mediocre.

Of course, this "mediocre" also depends on how it is scored.

Taking the whole movie into consideration, he would give it an 8-point rating.

It's just a pity...

The old man put his perspective inside the church...

It seems a little "smaller".

But it’s right to think about it. If it is blindly “big”, then the impression may also be bad.

There must be a trade-off.

In hindsight, the escape scene at the beginning was like dried fruit sprinkled on top of a cream cake.

It is precisely because of their sourness that they sublimate the taste of the entire cake.

Older gingers are more spicy.

"call……"

He let out a long sigh and walked out of the theater.

I didn’t give the old man any information because it wasn’t necessary.

He just clicked on Weibo and posted a message on Weibo with his truest feelings:

""The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is a worthwhile trip."

After editing the text, take a photo of the ticket stub.

go home.

…

The first day of New Year's Day.

From 14:00 to 24:00, twelve hours.
