Screenwriter Mystery

"Is there too many people?"

Arriving at the entrance of the cinema, Agent Phil couldn't help exclaiming when he saw the long queue.

At Spike's suggestion, BSI decided to watch a movie to relax everyone's nerves.

However, Amanda and her party were still a little surprised when they saw the long queue of hundreds of people at the entrance of the cinema.

It's midnight now, and there are still so many people willing to spend time queuing to watch a movie at this time.

"Is this movie really so attractive?"

As a BSI agent, Angela has no experience in actually participating in paranormal cases, but at least she has been exposed to paranormal investigations.

With practical experience, she obviously didn't take this movie too seriously.

"Of course, didn't you hear what the director claimed on the show? This is a 'real' documentary, and the inspiration for Blair the Witch came from this. Blair the Witch was filmed to paralyze the federal government into thinking it was another movie propaganda tactic..."

A white man in the team's eyes fell on Angela's beautiful face, and he immediately started talking.

"Yeah, I also heard this, so I went to watch this movie specifically."

With people starting, everyone in the queue expressed their views on the movie.

Although, in the eyes of BSI agents, the reason for watching the movie is like a nest of dolls, and can't stand any scrutiny at all, but these people who are queuing to watch the movie seem to believe it.

"It's another group of people who have been deceived by the movie's propaganda."

In the sound of everyone's discussion, Amanda and his party quietly lined up to the last position in the team.

Detective Phil looked at the crowd who were still talking about the movie "Secrets", couldn't help shaking his head and sighed.

"If I remember correctly, someone seems to have believed that Blair the Witch was real?"

Looking at Detective Phil who was standing in front of him, posing as if everyone was drunk and I was awake alone, Detective Zhou revealed in an incomprehensible way.

"Cough cough!"

Hearing Detective Zhou's merciless twitching, Detective Phil coughed unnaturally.

He turned his head and looked at the half-smiling eyes of the BSI people behind him, and quickly explained: "It was because of the various rumors at the time that I was deceived because I didn't notice it for a while. This time, it's very clear. The documentary that the film claims is just a propaganda method by the film production company, and I will not be fooled a second time by this same trick.”

Under the sworn assurance of Detective Phil, Amanda and her party waited for nearly 40 minutes outside the line to buy tickets for the movie.

Among them, although there are few reasons for the scarcity of theaters in Washington, it also proves the popularity of the movie "Smart: Ghost Recording" from the side.

...

Of course, the movie theaters of "Smart: Ghost Recording" are not the only two movie theaters in Washington.

Under the influence of Universal's campaign for publicity and the box office results left by Zhao Yuan's previous consecutive films.

Many theater chains are willing to vacate the big screen to show new movies.

Even the "pseudo-documentaries" that followed the trend after "Blair Witch" have suffered box-office failures.

However, the theater is still full of hope for "Smart: Ghost Recording".

After all, it was Zhao Yuan who filmed the movie this time, and in the minds of the theater chain, he has always been a sign of a dark horse to make money.

At least in front of him, none of the films that Zhao Yuan participated in as screenwriters or directors lost money.

The theater also hopes that this achievement can be extended to his new work "Smart: Ghost Recording".

More than 1,800 theaters across the United States have released "Smart: Ghost Story", which is enough to prove how optimistic the major theater chains are for the film.

Of course, all of this just represents the theater's high expectations for the new movie.

Once the box office of "Smart: Ghost Story" is not as good as expected, these theaters will not hesitate to abandon it and turn to look for more lucrative movies.

"You don't seem nervous at all, Zhao?"

Los Angeles, inside the theater.

Wen Ziren looked at Zhao Yuan with a calm expression on the side, and couldn't help but speak.

As a horror director with a high reputation in Hollywood today, even if he has been baptized by various movie premieres, every time a new movie is released, Wen Ziren still feels uncontrollable nervousness. He was only surprised when Zhao Yuan in the next seat was able to remain calm as usual.

"The movie has already been filmed and released, and it will not help to continue to be nervous."

Hearing Wen Ziren's voice, Zhao Yuan glanced at the other party in the dimly lit theater projection hall.

"What's more, I have confidence in "Smart: Ghost Story"..."

Wen Ziren thought that Zhao Yuan's confidence came from his trust in his own works.

But in fact, what supports Zhao Yuan's self-confidence is the series of brilliant box office results that the original version of "Smart: Ghost Shadow Record" once set.

In this way, under the different ideas of the two.

In the theater, the screening of "Smart: Ghost Recording" began.

After the opening animation of Universal, a subtitle appeared naturally in the title of the film, expressing gratitude to the family who made this 'documentary' film.

This is a common technique of 'pseudo-documentary'~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It has been used once in "Blair Witch", the purpose is to remind the audience to bring them into the film and think that what they see is a film Documentaries, not movies.

With the subtitles flashing on the screen, the movie soon entered the topic.

First of all, at the beginning of the movie, it is a simple plot. There is no main line, just the hero is shooting in the house with a DV camera. Although this shaky scene is not worth mentioning, it brings the audience into it very well. Documentary filming.

For "Smart: Ghost Recording", Zhao Yuan had already watched it several times while editing.

Therefore, compared to movies on the big screen, he paid more attention to the audience in the theater. His eyes fell on their expressions, but Zhao Yuan easily saw boredom and disdain on the faces of everyone. It is unavoidable, after all, as a 'pseudo-documentary', only by creating enough daily foreshadowing in the early stage can the audience who watch the movie be successfully brought into the movie without causing a feeling of detachment.

Fortunately, although some of the previous plots were boring, no audience left in the hall. This is also thanks to the baptism of the 'pseudo-documentaries' filmed by those who followed the trend of "Blair Witch" since this time, so that the audience has accepted this kind of baptism. The way of the movie.
