Hollywood Lover

Chapter 538 Hang him!

And all the film producers have to do is to move the movie they have high hopes for, move it away, and give way to the vigorous perfume. Otherwise, losing all their money is not what any director wants to see. Halloween, a time when all kinds of horror and suspense films can make a lot of money, has completely become the exclusive territory of perfume, and everyone is afraid of encountering it.

And those unlucky directors and producers were unable to move the time of their own movies. When they heard that their own movie schedules collided with Zhang Dongcheng's, they all put their hands on their foreheads and felt as if they were dead. They couldn't muster the slightest thought to dare to compete. There was even a director who had a heart attack and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment when he heard that his movie was in direct conflict with perfume...

This is Zhang Dongcheng, Zhang Dongcheng who is unstoppable in the film industry, Zhang Dongcheng who is like a god descending!

There is no doubt that although the perfume has profound connotations, it contains a large number of nudity scenes, thus being classified as an R-rated movie.

R-rated movies are the product of the American film rating system, R-rated, that is, RESTRICTEDUnder17requiresaccompanyingparentoradultguardian. Level 1 in the American film rating system is restricted, and those under 17 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to watch. Videos of this level include **********, which contain more pornographic, violent, drug-taking and other scenes and swear words;

In order to reflect the powerful talent of the protagonist in the original work and the all-powerful magic of perfume, especially the thousand-person scene at the end... naturally, it is not surprising at all that it is rated R.

As for R-rated movies, before this, the highest-grossing R-rated movie in North American film history was Zhang Dongcheng's legendary masterpiece, The Matrix, which had a revenue of 235 million U.S. dollars. This film earned 212.5 million U.S. dollars during its release period. Before the release of The Matrix Part 2, The Matrix Part 1 was re-screened. Unexpectedly, it also made more than 20 million US dollars at the box office, surpassing the 1984 comedy in one fell swoop. The action film "Beverly Hills Cop" grossed US$234 million in 30 weeks of screening.

Of course, if inflation is taken into account, there will be more "Beverley Hill" and there will be no such thing as The Matrix, but the reality is that in terms of money, The Matrix firmly ranks first.

Will the title of "North American R-rated movie box office champion" change hands after the release of Zhang Dongcheng's perfume? Everyone has such bold guesses.

But Zhang Dongcheng is not so bold. After all, Perfume is completely different from The Matrix. The former is more like a literary film that European movie fans prefer, rather than a popcorn movie that North American audiences prefer. Therefore, Zhang Dongcheng does not dare to set such a target. high.

So, the third place in the history of R-rated movies is "The Exorcist" in 1973 with 232 million; followed by the fourth in 1998 with 21.6 billion in "Saving Private Ryan", and the fifth in 1991 with 2.04 "Terminator 2: Judgment Day", sixth: "Gladiator" in 2000, which was just after it ended, with a box office of 187 million.

To be honest, Zhang Dongcheng thinks that it is great that his perfume can enter the top ten of R-rated movies. He is optimistic about the performance of perfume in the European overseas market.

Time is passing slowly, and although there are frequent controversies about the film Perfume, no one can stop its arrival.

All of North America held its breath, waiting for this much-anticipated day.

OK, here it comes!

Zhang Dongcheng's most die-hard supporters, the cheerful and lively American girl Susanna and her brother Harpet, came to the cinema early and struggled to squeeze forward in the surging crowd.

There are so many people here that you can't even see the basic line clearly. People are anxious to buy tickets for Zhang Dongcheng's latest movie, and no one wants to give up.

"Oh, God. Hubiter blamed you for telling you to go out early!" Susanna was very dissatisfied as her brother pushed her against the back of the bald man in front of her. Her tall head was squeezed flat.

And the bald man seemed to have sensed something. He looked back at Susanna with a lewd smile on his face, which made her even more dissatisfied.

"Earlier? How early is too early?" Hubiter argued loudly. He didn't want to be scolded by his sister. He pointed at the boys at the front and said, "See, even if you come earlier, you can't be faster." If we can beat those people, we are here very early."

Pointing to the back again, Hubit tried his best to help his sister make some space: "Look, there are more people behind!"

Although she was dissatisfied, Susanna also knew that there was really nothing she could do about it. Who said this was Smith and Zhang's movie?

Okay, okay, there’s nothing more to say, just squeeze it with your eyes closed!

"Give me three perfume tickets!" "I want six!" "Sorry, I want eight!"

The moviegoers holding tickets left happily, and the queue finally loosened up. When Suzanne and Harpet squeezed to the ticket window, the nearly full theater annoyed them.

"There is only one ticket left, sir. Do you two buy the last one, or the previous one first?" the ticket sales lady said politely, pointing to the electronic screen, indicating that there is only one ticket for the first show. .

"Please, there is only one ticket? He is my brother, and we came together. Can't we look for more tickets? Even if we don't sit together!" How could Susanna be willing to wait a few more hours to see Zhang? As for Dongcheng's movie, as a die-hard fan, she would never forgive herself for not being able to watch it for the first time.

"I'm sorry, I know you two came together, but I can't help it. There is only one ticket for the first show." The ticket sales lady looked at it again and regretfully said that there was only one ticket.

Suzanne and Harpet were really in trouble. They couldn't have fun together. As a result, they had to go in alone. Don't wait outside for more than two hours to watch, right?

The man behind him eagerly waved the banknotes in his hand and said loudly: "Hey, man, you two came together, and now you only have one ticket. Why don't you two go together? Give me this ticket first." I'm single! This ticket was specially left for me by Smith Zhang out of mercy!"

"Shut up!" Susanna originally had a phobia of choice. Faced with the fact that there was only one ticket, she was already upset. She looked at her watch. Less than ten minutes after this girl started selling tickets, the first show There is only one ticket available!

"Miss, do you want to buy it? If not, can you let the people behind you? Why don't you buy the second show? You can see it in more than two hours." The ticket sales lady said kindly.

"Yes, little beauty, give me the ticket! Haha, on behalf of Smith and Zhang fans, thank you!" After hearing this, the man behind also shouted immediately, stretching out his arms to hand the banknote to the ticket seller. Miss.

Girl, don’t care! Susanna made up her mind instantly, squeezed the man behind her, took out the banknotes and said to the ticket lady: "Give me this ticket first!"

When Hubbard heard this, he immediately became anxious: "What, Susanna! You want to leave your dear brother outside for two and a half hours for Smith Zhang's movie? Are you still my sister?"

Taking the ticket in her hand, Susanna laughed excitedly, turned to Hubiter and said, "Dear good brother, just watch the second show. You can choose any seat. How great!"

What else can be done? Hubit could only bitterly take out the money and buy the next movie ticket for Perfume, and angrily shouted to Susanna with a happy expression: "Okay, my good sister, I will be with you for twenty years." Now, I finally know what kind of person you are!"

"Hehe, don't be angry. Can I treat you to some popcorn? You know, I've been looking forward to Smith's movie for a long time!" Suzanne hugged Hubiter's arm and kept acting coquettishly, finally getting angry. Hubbard lost his temper.

In the ticket hall, just like in Zhang Dongcheng's Dongcheng Pictures, a huge promotional poster hangs from the ceiling of the top floor to the ground. On it, Leonardo is dressed in the rags of the eighteenth-century poor and looks seriously at the shopping malls below. There was a crowd of spectators, but at the corner of his mouth, there was a faint smile that made people feel secretly frightened.

The handsome face of a sunshine boy, with a clearly visible scar on his left brow, made his image instantly weird, as if there was an unknown face behind this charming handsome guy...

Holding the movie ticket, Susanna happily walked into the cinema, which was already full of Zhang Dongcheng's fans, amid her brother Harpet's depressed complaints.

This is the eighth film in Zhang Dongcheng’s directorial career. Super movies one after another have conquered the discerning audiences in North America and the whole world. The British black humor of Two Smoking Barrels, the darkness and weirdness of The Mummy, The bullet time that is far beyond imagination in The Matrix, the cool police and gangster battle in The Dark War, the addictive love in Brokeback Mountain, and the magnificent Middle-earth world in The Lord of the Rings have built countless fans' love for Zhang Dongcheng. Confidence, unparalleled confidence.

Dongcheng's products must be high-quality. This sentence was put forward by an unknown ID on the official forum, and then swept the world. In the face of Dongcheng Pictures' increasingly amazing movies, it was regarded as truth by everyone and became a fact.

This time, Perfume, a movie directed by Zhang Dongcheng himself, will naturally be no worse than before!

Susanna's seat was in the very front row. No one except the super myopic people liked to sit here, but it happened that even the place where no one sat in other movies was full of people.

Sitting down, Susanna took out a large handful of popcorn and threw it into her mouth. She wouldn't eat more this time. When the movie started, she would definitely be unable to eat it. Maybe she would be surprised. And the entire bucket of popcorn was knocked over!

"Have you read the novel about perfume?" A girl wearing glasses next to her was almost the same age as Susanna. After the two looked at each other for a few times, the girl took the initiative to talk to Susanna.

"Ah...I don't. I don't want the novel to constrain my thinking. I want to watch Smith Zhang's movie and then read the novel to experience it again." Susanna was slightly surprised, but quickly said calmly. .

"You must read the novel. It is a completely unimaginable world. I really don't know how Smith's film can interpret this world of smell. This novel is called the most unlikely novel in the world to be made into a movie. It does make sense." The girl with glasses looked at Susanna, clenched her hands in front of her chest, but her eyes showed great trust: "But I know Smith Zhang can definitely take good photos. He is so handsome, he can definitely do it. of!"

Yes, he is another super fan of Smith Zhang, a young movie fan who was fascinated by his oriental face...

Susanna curled her lips, but lost interest in chatting with the girl.

Girl, if Smith Zhang is so handsome, he won’t pay attention to a girl like you with glasses. He will definitely like my type! Susanna proudly puffed up her plump breasts...

While waiting excitedly, the lights in the entire cinema slowly dimmed and it was about to begin!

The loud talk just now, the sound of countless people excitedly discussing the movie suddenly disappeared, and the entire cinema was now silent.

A beam of light fell down, the logo of Dongcheng Pictures appeared, and the main film began soon.

At the beginning of the film, there is a vague figure of a man in the darkness. Although it is not clear who he is, the outline of his facial features and figure are very beautiful.

Pulling, a tall and handsome man's nose appeared on the camera. It was so prominent that the man's eyes were hidden in the darkness. At this time, his nose seemed to smell something, and he inhaled quickly. A few times.

What does this twitching of the nose mean?

Soon, a group of soldiers with live weapons and nuclear weapons came outside, opened the iron bars of a prison cell in front of the man, and locked them with iron chains brutally, and the man was dragged out.

On the camera, he was naked from the waist up, with only tattered trousers underneath, his feet were bare, and the chains were clanging on his ankles.

Soon, the man was dragged to a balcony, and below were thousands of people, all extremely angry, raising their hands and shouting curses.

"Hang him, hang him!"

"Damn scum, hang him!"

"This person deserves to die!"

Screaming in pain, crying in pain, crying in pain, everyone pointed their hands directly at the man on the high platform and cursed him with all the most vicious words.

The camera shifted, and a face that didn't know the joy or sorrow appeared, but it was a face with black hair and handsome features. Although his body was scarred and there was a huge iron chain locked around his neck, he raised his head and his eyes were abnormal. Calm, as if the tsunami-like scolding under the stage was just a passing cloud and turned a deaf ear...

"It's Leonardo!" Susanna finally saw the male protagonist's face clearly, but she was surprised why he was chained up, and countless people were cursing him, wishing that he would die immediately!

"Yes, it's Leonardo!" The girl with glasses who had read the novel knew what happened, and just said calmly, while Leonardo, who was dressed in filth, with messy hair, and seemed to have been beaten up Although Dou is in a state of utter disarray, he is still so breathtakingly beautiful, just like the big boy on the Titanic shouting that he is the king of the world.

However, those eyes seemed to be lifeless and unconscious...

"The outcome of the court rebellion is as follows. Two days later, Jean-Baptiste Grenouille, a skilled perfume maker, will be tied to a wooden cross, facing the sky, and will be killed by the executioner with an iron rod. He was struck twelve times, breaking all the joints of his arms, shoulders, hips, and legs, and was nailed to a cross as a sign of obedience until his death. He was also prohibited from using ordinary humane methods, and his life must be made worse than death. !”

Thousands of spectators in the audience raised their arms and shouted with great excitement. What they shouted could not be heard at all. Only the judge's hoarse roar made it clear how to deal with Leonardo!

Such a terrible punishment, such a person who caused thousands of people to cheer wildly, Leonardo was calm and calm, as if he was announcing someone else's punishment and everything had nothing to do with him.

Whether he was making frothing accusations or endless roars, Leonardo stood quietly, his thin body under the thick iron chains forming a strong contrast.

Susanna touched her undulating chest and couldn't help but said: "Oh, God, Leonardo did something wrong to do this to him!"

Ignoring everyone's accusations against Leonardo and ignoring the seemingly impartial judge, Susanna immediately sided with Leonardo, who was still handsome despite his embarrassment.

Zhang Dongcheng's speculation about facial control has obviously become a fact...

The narration appears, briefly introducing the special identity of the leading actor Leonardo.

"In France in the 18th century, there once appeared such a person. He was extremely talented but also notorious. His name was Jean-Baptiste Grenouille..."

The camera zoomed closer and closer, until finally only his nose existed on the entire screen, "This is his talent, the fleeting kingdom of smell..."

"PERFUME perfume"

The appearance of the title "Perfume" means that this is the official start of the movie, and this beginning has already lifted everyone's spirits. What kind of life does this person who was sentenced to such a severe sentence have? People can't help but start. Get excited.

"In Paris, the most disgusting stench comes from the fishmonger's market. On July 17, 1738, Grenouille was born."

The powerful heartbeat and the chaotic and disgusting sounds of slaughtering pigs and fish in the market are constantly switching. Various stomach-churning scenes continuously impact the audience's vision. The scenes that cost a lot of time and money make the audience feel like Many people even closed their eyes when visiting the French fish market in the 18th century.

When Grenouille was born, his mother was sent to the gallows for abandoning him. The first of his devastating talents was to make anyone who wanted to harm him die...

In the heavy rain, Grenouille was sent to a public nursery.
