After entering the screening room, Nanaya and Director Feng parted ways.
Nanaya was going to the crew's seats, while Director Feng was going to the guest area.
The two of them sat on opposite sides of the theater.
Just like the premiere in North America, Nanaya specifically requested that the premiere in China be held in the IMAX theater.
This is naturally to ensure that the premiere can show the best preview effect, and more importantly, to promote the IMAX screen to the Chinese audience.
In fact, in recent years, IMAX's development in China has not been satisfactory.
Compared to Europe and the United States, where the movie-watching trend has already been formed, IMAX in China is just getting started.
Excluding museums, IMAX has only 11 fully commercially operated theaters in China that specialize in showing science and education films.
If Nanaya's memory is correct, in 10 years, China will have more than 600 IMAX screens, ranking first in the world.
It can be seen that IMAX has huge potential in China.
In order to tap into this potential, we need a movie that can shock everyone.
"Madoka Magica" is exactly such a movie.
After using "Madoka Magica" to arouse the audience's interest in watching movies, it will be much easier to open up the market.
After all, cinema owners are typical businessmen. The profits created by IMAX are right in front of them, and they will never let it go.
On the other side, Director Feng walked to his seat while holding 3D glasses and humming a little tune.
But when he saw someone sitting next to him, his face immediately turned gloomy.
[What bad luck! Why is it him?]
After seeing someone, Feng Laopao immediately wanted to turn around and leave, and secretly change seats with someone else.
But unexpectedly, before Old Feng turned around, he was seen by someone sitting in the seat.
"Hey, isn't this Old Feng? How come you're here to attend the premiere~"
The other party said in a very strange tone.
Old Feng frowned, "Why can't I come? Their movie has the highest box office in the world, why can't I come and learn from it?"
Having said that, Old Feng sat down next to the other person.
If he hadn't been discovered by the other party, Old Feng could have secretly changed his seat, but now the other party had seen him, so he could only stay in his seat.
Otherwise, if today's incident were to spread, people in the circle would probably think that I was afraid of him.
"It's really strange that Director Feng, who always looks down on others, would actually learn from others."
The other party didn't seem to intend to let Old Feng go, and continued in a teasing tone.
"Tsk."
Old Feng was very unhappy. He curled his lips and said nothing.
The guy in front of me is a typical second-generation director, and he is also a top student who graduated from a prestigious film academy.
It can be said that this guy was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Because everything has gone smoothly for him since he was a child, he has developed a proud and arrogant character.
Because of its outstanding commercial performance and the audience's love.
Old Feng has always been regarded as one of the representative successful directors among the fifth generation of Chinese directors.
This made the other party very unhappy. In his eyes, Feng Laopao, who came from a self-taught background, was not even a director, but just a small gangster.
The fact that such a person can represent the fifth generation is simply an insult to myself as an artist.
Movies are noble things, works of art, how can they be tainted by the secular world?
So every time he sees Old Feng, this guy likes to mock him.
The purpose is to vent the dissatisfaction in my heart.
Old Feng also disliked this guy no matter how he looked at him.
Who the hell do you think you are? You dare to act like a big shot in front of me.
Therefore, every time the two met, they would make all kinds of sarcasm and try to gain the upper hand verbally.
But today is an exception.
It's okay to curse in private, but today we are in public.
It would be really ugly if we really started arguing.
The other party obviously noticed something, so he took advantage of the time before the movie started to constantly mock Old Feng.
"Old Feng, you said you came here to learn, what do you want to learn? Do you think you can learn other people's computer special effects technology just by watching it once?"
"I heard that the director liked your movie and said that the housing prices in the capital will continue to soar in the future. Tsk tsk, look at what you filmed. Not only did it mislead our international friends, but it also gave us negative publicity."
Feng Laopao raised his eyebrows, feeling a little unbearable and ready to curse back.
"And what else..."
"Stop talking to me!"
Someone shouted at the other person, but that person was not Old Feng, but Master Zhang.
Old Zhang stared at the other person and said, "If you talk again, I'll have the security guard kick you out."
The other party then stopped talking.
No matter how arrogant he was, he couldn't stand up to Master Zhang.
After all, when he completed the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympics, he was far ahead of everyone else in status.
No matter whether you are convinced by him or not, there is no way to deny his status as the big brother of the industry.
Old Feng sneered. It was the happiest thing for him to see his old rival suffer a defeat.
Fortunately, the movie officially started soon.
The three directors each put on 3D glasses and began to watch the movie attentively.
Regardless of whether they agree with the director Nanaya Kiryu in their hearts, the movie "Madoka Magica" suits their taste.
They cannot ignore the commercial success of "Madoka Magica" which is constantly setting box office records.
Don't say this is a cheating result because 3D movie tickets are more expensive.
Have there been fewer 3D movies since the last century? Why did "Madoka Magica" break the record when other movies failed?!
The moment the ceiling lights in the theater went out, the moment the theater fell into darkness.
Everyone's anticipation for this film has reached its peak.
And Nanaya Kiryu did not disappoint everyone.
On the screen, the gorgeous kaleidoscope scene at the beginning of "Madoka Magica" directly shows the audience the extent of the special effects of this movie.
The Chinese audience in front of the screen seemed to be frozen in their seats.
They were all stunned, as if they had lost consciousness.
Some people even seem to have forgotten how to breathe and can only mechanically inhale through their mouths.
Everyone's eyes seemed to be fixed on the screen, refusing to move no matter what happened.
It was this scene at the opening of the film that shocked everyone in the screening room.
Master Zhang and Feng Dapao were the first to look away from the screen, and they exchanged glances quickly.
Even though the theater was pitch black and both of them were wearing 3D glasses, they couldn't see each other's eyes at all.
However, the surprised expression on the other person's face could be seen clearly by the light of the screen.
They both understood each other's thoughts: those so-called special effects blockbusters in the past were just small fry, and now "Madoka Magica" can be regarded as a true special effects movie!
This used to refer not only to Chinese movies, but even Hollywood movies were included.
This feeling even exceeded the first time they watched "Titanic".
I thought that from 1998 to now, China has slowly begun to catch up with Hollywood.
Although there is still a long way to go, some low- and medium-cost movies can still compare in terms of special effects and visual effects alone.
Everyone originally thought that if the film industry worked harder in the next few years, it might be able to catch up with Hollywood's achievements.
But after watching "Madoka Magica", both the national teacher and the old man clearly realized that they were wrong.
Hollywood is still the same Hollywood, and while they are making progress, they are not standing still.
Once again, they left filmmakers around the world far behind.
Don't deceive yourself by saying that Nanaya Kiryu is a Japanese director. This movie is as standard as it can be for a Hollywood movie from its production to its promotion.
However, apart from expressing their feelings, the two people's ambitions for movies were also aroused by the grand scenes of this movie.
If a Japanese director can make a movie like this, why can't I?
"What a generous move!"
Gao Chang Gong was the second person to come back to his senses from the shocking scene at the beginning of "Madoka Magica".
But even so, he was still impressed by the visual effects presented by "Madoka Magica".
That opening alone was the most gorgeous movie scene he had ever seen in his life.
This kind of immersive feeling was something Gao Chang Gong had never experienced in any movie he had watched before.
Although this is not enough to make this die-hard fan of Cameron betray him, in Gao Chang Gong's mind, the kind director Nanaya Kiryu is undoubtedly the second most admired director he has now.
"It would be great if I could work with Director Kiryu on a movie. I would be willing to do it even if it's just a supporting role..."
Gao Chang Gong talked to himself with a longing look on his face.
I heard that Director Kiryu seems to have a plan to audition actors in China. Should I sign up?
Considering the cooperation between my family and Washimine, being selected shouldn't be a problem.
Gao Chang Gong silently made a decision in his heart.
On the screen, the shock that "Madoka Magica" brings to the audience continues.
The daily plots that followed were a bit slow for European and American audiences.
But it is just right for Chinese audiences.
Because most of the current Chinese movies have a slow pace.
Most Chinese audiences don't have a problem with movies that are slow to get going.
In addition, the achievements that "Madoka Magica" has already made have made them deify this movie in their subconscious mind.
So even though the story begins with the daily lives of several high school girls, the audience still enjoys watching it.
What's more, there are wonderful magic special effects to watch, which is really a novel experience for most of the audience in the theater who don't know what IMAX3D is.
It is rare to see 3D movies with such a strong sense of three-dimensionality. Even "Ice Age 3" released in the first half of this year did not have such good visual effects.
It's just that all good things are short-lived.
When the Korean audience was still immersed in the first half of the beautiful girl's fairy tale outlined by Nanaya, senior Mami told everyone a simple fact by losing her head.
This is not a fairy tale, but a cruel story.
