Entertainment: My knife has made the whole world sad

[Pre-sale for Lin Qiu’s new film has started! Grab your tickets, sisters! 】

[I just bought it. At the premiere, Teacher Lin Qiu and Chen Daohua, I will support it no matter what! 】

【Wow wow wow wow! I was chosen as the lucky audience member at the premiere! 】

[Really, sister! 】

…

As soon as the pre-sale information for The Story of Hachiko came out, it immediately became the focus of the entire Xiazhou film industry and was given extremely high expectations!

Love Letter, The Furnace and The God of Medicine are three consecutive masterpieces.

Chen Daohua joined the cast of this film again, and the predicted box office once exceeded 5 billion. This is the Lin Qiu Effect.

Almost no industry insiders or viewers will question this movie.

The reason is very simple. If the script of this movie is not good, can Mr. Chen Daohua and Chen join?

Chen Daohua is in a semi-retired state, and this time he will definitely not bring a bad movie to ruin his future!

The director and starring actors' reputation has been overwhelming, and pre-sales have exceeded 300 million in a short period of time!

Such pre-sale results can only be described as incredible!

But Lin Qiu is really hard to say about the box office performance of this movie.

Lin Qiu had predicted the box office for the previous films, and the final results were relatively in line with expectations.

For example, before the release of The God of Medicine, Lin Qiu knew that it was at least 5 billion.

It’s really hard to say anything about this Hachiko.

Two billion is possible, and five billion is not unexpected either.

Mainly because the subject matter is a literary film, it is difficult to create a local box office miracle.

But Lin Qiu's current reputation and popularity are so explosive, especially among young movie fans.

The box office of a movie is complexly related to the schedule, lineup, publicity, reputation, and subject matter.

It is not a movie with a quality of one billion in the previous life. It is one billion in any time period.

…

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone has swept the youth groups of Xiazhou in a short period of time.

Even during the summer vacation, this imaginative story is still rapidly fermenting in the world of student parties.

In ten days, the total sales exceeded ten million, making him another best-selling author in Xiazhou.

Such achievements not only make the entire online literary circle proud, but also shock the physical book circle!

In Xiazhou, it was only because of the popularity accumulated by the old thief that Harry Potter could rise so quickly.

Overseas, veteran writers do not have this kind of reader base and are completely equivalent to a new author.

The rise of a new author is destined not to be so rapid, let alone a Xiazhou author.

During this period of time, except for the fixed two hours of coding work every day, Lin Qiu was quite free the rest of the time, which was considered a good vacation for himself.

With such hot weather in Xiazhou, traveling in Xiazhou is not practical.

The animation department still has some work to focus on. It has already reached the finishing work of Unknown Flower Name. Lin Qiu still attaches great importance to this animation that has opened up the Xiazhou market.

This is a brand new market.

Since August, the release date of Hachiko is getting closer and closer.

For the premiere, Lin Qiu still invited some familiar friends in the industry, such as Jiang Han, Liya, Chen You, Ye Zhiyuan, Tang Anning, Xu Xin and others to support the show.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Qiu's much-anticipated new film is finally here!

…

August 10th.

The hot summer still cannot dry up the enthusiasm of movie fans, outside Jiuzhou International Cinema.

Many fans of Lin Qiu's movie had been waiting outside the theater for a long time. When they saw Lin Qiu coming, they shouted:

Lin Qiu!

Lin Qiu! I love you!

Wow! Qiuye! Qiuye came together!

Compared to a year ago, Lin Qiu is extremely popular now.

Not only in the film industry, but also in the entertainment industry.

A big star.

Ye Zhiyuan and Lin Qiu came from the company together. Seeing such a scene, they laughed and teased.

After a brief exchange with fans, Lin Qiu walked into the cinema.

In the theater, many media reporters came here first. When they saw Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan arriving, they all greeted them.

Director Lin, we all know that your last film The God of Medicine achieved a box office of more than 6 billion. Do you think this new film can surpass The God of Medicine?

Lin Qiu smiled and said, Different types.

This Hachi is a literary film. As for the box office and reputation, I leave it to the audience.

I don't have much pursuit of box office. I would be satisfied with two billion.

Lin Qiu's words immediately caused some media to grasp the key point.

Immediately he wrote in his notebook:

[Lin Qiu: I have no interest in box office! 】

[Lin Qiu: Set a small goal, two billion! 】

[Lin Qiu: Two billion is okay! 】

…

Guests at the premiere arrived one after another. Jiang Han gave up a lot of work and rushed back to Yanjing to support Lin Qiu!

Tang Anning, Xu Xin, Chen You, Liya and other well-known celebrities in the industry all sat in the middle and chatted happily with each other.

Little did he realize that in the next two or three hours, there would be a wave of tear gas even more terrifying than The Crucible!

The film The Crucible is more about heartbreak and anger!

But this Hachiko just makes me cry!

Just as movie fans across Xiazhou are looking forward to the release of Hachi, the premiere begins first.

Wow——

The lights in the theater gradually went out, and pictures began to appear on the big screen.

A piece of relaxed and melodious orchestral music sounded, which immediately silenced the entire theater.

Ye Zhiyuan looked at the screen intently, looking forward to it more than the release of his own movie!

When editing Hachi Gong, Ye Zhiyuan was filming White Night Journey and had not watched it.

I want to see how this film will move me.

Ye Zhiyuan said to himself with a relaxed smile.

When they were in the car before, Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan made a bet.

The bet on whether Ye Zhiyuan will be moved to tears by the story of Eight Masters is a barbecue.

You must know that whether it is Love Letter, The Furnace or The God of Medicine, Ye Zhiyuan has never shed a tear.

As a director, Jerry Ye really understands film shooting techniques and the accumulation of emotions.

Compared with ordinary movie fans, Ye Zhiyuan has seen a lot and is undoubtedly more rational.

So when Lin Qiu said that Ye Zhiyuan might even cry, Ye Zhiyuan naturally didn't believe it.

here we go.

As soon as the movie started, all the attention in the theater was focused on the big screen.

This is Lin Qiu's movie, every frame is art!

As soon as the movie comes up, it's the trailer.

In the classroom, a little boy stood on the podium and told the story of his grandfather and Hachiko.

Hachiko is a dog raised by my grandfather.

Everyone says Hachiko is a mysterious dog, and no one knows his origins.

Grandpa said he didn't know. He might have run away from some shelter, or he might have jumped out of a car. Anyway, Hachiko is a stray dog.

Many years ago, when my grandfather was still alive, Hachiko showed up at the train station.

…

Good guy!

Damn, that's how you cut the trailer, right?

Only Lin Qiu can do this...

Hiss... isn't this little actor the one in The Crucible?

At the beginning of the movie, the audience atmosphere in the theater was quite relaxed, and more than one audience member laughed and complained softly.

This one-minute opening scene seems to be the entire content in the trailer of Hachiko.

In the trailers of other movies, I wish I could cut out all the essence of the movie, for fear that the audience will not come to the theater.

Lin Qiu is the one who stands alone.

I'm afraid the audience won't come into the theater.

Lin Qiu said to himself.

The emotions of the film need to be piled up, and the plot of Hachiko itself is simply tear-jerking.

If the content is really cut and the spoilers are revealed, many fans will definitely not step into the cinema.

…

The scene changes to a dark old train station with people coming and going.

The truck made a constant creaking sound.

In the cage, there seemed to be dogs who came from nowhere, and the sounds of yelping puppies kept coming from the box!

Toot——

The train passed by, the sound of the horn covering up the sound of the iron cage falling to the ground.

Xiaoba got out of the cage and appeared in front of the public naturally.

so cute!

So cute!

In the theater, a group of female viewers, including Tang Anning and Xu Xin, unconsciously showed their kindness and love as soon as they saw Xiaoba.

Women are born with more delicate, rich and emotional emotions than men.

What's more, the maternal nature in their bones makes them fall in love with cute little animals!

On the big screen, Xiao Ba, played by Xiao Huang, kept walking in the train station, and the entire camera was kept very low.

It wasn't until I met Professor Chen played by Chen Daohua that the camera gradually moved up!

A face familiar to the entire Xiazhou audience.

At this moment, many movie fans in the cinema subconsciously got goosebumps for no apparent reason!

After a few years, Chen Daohua once again appeared on the big screen.

Lost? Little one.

Chen Daohua's lines of just a few words can make movie fans feel the scholarly and elegant atmosphere of the professor.

This role is somewhat similar to Chen Daohua himself, and it is even more easy to perform.

…

Sensational soundtrack and atmosphere.

That's what I'm going for.

As a director, Ye Zhiyuan has more concerns.

Just like Love Letter, it is embellished with a little bit of soundtrack from the beginning.

Ordinary movie fans may not pay attention, but they will inevitably become immersed in the story of the film under the creation of this atmosphere.

Lin Qiu's shooting techniques are definitely fine, it just depends on whether the emotions and stories stacked up can move the audience.

Because it was a film about dogs, many viewers in the theater found it very novel and were reluctant to blink as they watched the plot intently.

Unable to find the owner, Professor Chen could only take Xiaoba back to his home.

But because his wife never liked dogs, Professor Chen could only sneak Xiaoba in after confirming that his wife was upstairs.

The wife has not seen her husband for a long time, and the fire is burning, and the clouds and rain are changing!

Seeing this section, the movie fans all showed meaningful smiles!

But Xiaoba took action at this time, looking for the sound, and stumbled all the way into the bedroom.

Fuck...

Holy shit, shit, shit!

Stimulate--

It was obviously a dog, but the audience saw something else.

Under the expectation of the audience, Xiaoba smelled it and licked Tang Jia's delicate feet.

Then Tang Jia jumped straight out of the bed like a carp, ejected and howled miserably!

The whole cinema suddenly burst into laughter!

Hahahahaha!

LOL!

If a man is frightened like this, he may lose his glory!

…

Faced with his wife's anger, Professor Chen had no choice but to place Xiaoba in the former dog house and promised to send the found dog away early tomorrow morning.

Lin Qiu's film art has always been touching. Even a dog seems to have human emotions.

Through the gap in the dog house door, Xiaoba's big moist eyes looked at Professor Chen's back silently. (audience)

The appearance of the pastoral dog itself is lovable, and this time, it made countless female viewers feel maternal love.

This dog's acting skills...

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhiyuan was a little shocked.

The grievance in the dog's eyes was so vivid and touching that Ye Zhiyuan didn't even know how Lin Qiu did it!

After the movie ends, Ye Zhiyuan must ask Lin Qiu.

This dog is a better actor than a human. It's too exaggerated.

…

In the subsequent story, because his wife did not agree to adopt the puppy, Professor Chen had to embark on the road of finding an adopter.

But no matter whether it was a shelter, a bookstore or a roadside stall, familiar friends were unable to adopt this puppy due to various reasons.

In desperation, Professor Chen could only take the puppy with him.

Because there was a small lock on the puppy's neck with the word eight on the lock, Professor Chen named the puppy Xiaoba.

At this time, the audience is thinking.

How great it would be if Professor Chen's wife could agree to Xiaoba becoming a member of the big family!

But things went counterproductive. Even though Professor Chen had a big fight with his wife over Xiaoba, his wife was still unwilling to adopt Xiaoba.

Xiao Ba's pitiful eyes were captured by several close-ups of Lin Qiu. The audience had no rational thinking and immediately became dissatisfied with his wife:

Why don't you adopt Xiaoba! Xiaoba is so cute!

“It’s really a whole big mullet!”

This wife is so unkind!

…

In real life, liking or not liking small animals is a matter of personal freedom.

Regarding this aspect, the quarrels on the Internet have never subsided over the years.

One group said that the other party was cold-blooded and inhumane.

One group said that the other side should consider reality, that humans are greater than dogs.

It is difficult to have a compromise opinion.

But in the movie, who cares so much about you?

Especially a movie with Hachiko as the main perspective.

But Ye Zhiyuan remained calm, thinking about a question:

Why does the professor have a doghouse in his house?

Could it be a foreshadowing?

…

As a director, Lin Qiu is really good at stirring up the audience's emotions.

The audience's dissatisfaction with the wife completely disappeared after just a few minutes.

Especially when the wife saw her husband and Xiaoba playing happily in the sun with bright smiles, she thought twice and rejected the adoption request on the other end of the phone.

This made the audience who had secretly scolded his wife for being unkind suddenly blush.

Who would have thought that a slap in the face would come so quickly?

Sorry~

The world itself is not black and white, and there always needs to be time and space for people to accept it.

How on earth was this filmed?

It's really exquisite.

Ye Zhiyuan's voice of exclamation never stopped in his heart.

Xiaoba's longing, grievance, and happiness were all perfectly displayed on the big screen, and he was so spiritual.

Is this something humans can do?

…

As Xiao Ba grows up, he has established an unusual emotional connection with the audience in the theater.

But this has made many filmmakers in the industry even more curious.

How to film the next story?

The plot of the literary film is as beautiful and plain as ever, and it is deeply rooted in emotional connections.

But if we keep going like this, we will undoubtedly be labeled as boring and boring.

This is an important obstacle for literary films to explore the market.

From then on, Xiaoba would be at the door of the train station every day, waiting for the professor's return on time.

boring?

“Not boring at all!”

I just hope that this simple daily life can continue forever.

The audience's perception is completely different.

They enjoy this healing routine.

Whenever Xiaoba plays with the professor and jumps on the professor.

Or when the two of them were walking side by side on the railway, the professor and Xiaoba were chatting.

Or the scene of Xiaoba waiting for the professor to return, it heals them every moment.

One month, two months, three months.

Xiaoba has grown up.

The professor's daughter found her husband and got married with the blessings of her family!

In this family photo, Xiaoba is also among them, smiling very happily.

Soon after, the professor's daughter became pregnant.

The happiness of this family has reached its peak!

Can……

Are Lin Qiu's movies really that simple?

After happiness comes fall.

Ye Zhiyuan looked at the screen with burning eyes.

I know that the turning point of the movie may come here.

Each of those scenes full of love and warmth was recorded in the film's unique gray-white perspective.

…

Woof! Woof! Woof!

On this day, the professor played by Chen Daohua was preparing to take Xiaoba to the train platform as usual.

But this time, Xiaoba not only refused to go out, but also barked at the professor!

really.

Ye Zhiyuan took a deep breath and looked at Lin Qiu, who was sitting in the front row.

Lin Qiu's expression was quite calm.

There has always been a rumor in previous lives that dogs can see things that humans cannot.

And this is not without scientific basis.

The famous British biologist Rupert Sheldrake has published books describing many puzzling animal behaviors, including telepathy with their owners.

According to the database investigated by Sheldrake, there were more than 5,000 cases of animal telepathy during the investigation, including sensing that the owner came home, etc.

Among them, there were 177 cases in which dogs remotely sensed the death or suffering of their owners.

The way animals express themselves is by whining and whimpering, especially dogs that are more humane.

The originally warm scene ended with Xiaoba's barking.

Xiaoba tried his best to keep the professor, but the professor still got on the train to school.

But that last kiss seemed like a farewell!

Xiaoba, see you at five o'clock!

…

No way!

I feel something is wrong...

Sure enough, Lin Qiu's movie won't be that simple!

Seeing this scene, the audience was a little anxious!

They really hope that the warm scene between Xiaoba and the professor can be frozen, and they can live happily together forever.

But this is the movie world, how can there be such a dull story?

Above the classroom, Professor Chen was lecturing to the students as always:

Do you think this is right?

Think about today's performance. If you go on stage, play a CD, and lip-sync, everything will be fine!

Is this foolproof?

I don't think so. Real music is something that can only be found, like life and the soul.

Create...create...

When Professor Chen said this, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and then started to stagger.

In the hearts of movie fans.

A red, huge word danger rose up!

That feeling was like being unable to breathe a breath of fresh air, unable to breathe at all.

No way……

The audience swallowed.

Professor Chen lowered his head.

Audience: No way...

Professor Chen breathed heavily.

Audience: No...

boom!

Professor Chen suffered a heart attack and suddenly fell to the ground, unconscious.

Teacher! Teacher!

Quick! Call an ambulance!

Go find someone quickly!

The sound of Professor Chen's body hitting the ground was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of all the viewers in the theater!

When filming this episode, Chen Daohua shot it completely in real life without any protective measures.

That’s why it’s so real!

The superb acting skills perfectly presented the feeling of being out of breath due to a heart attack on the screen, making the audience feel a little synchronized and out of breath.

Another textbook acting scene that will remain in film history!

This movie captures the audience's emotions very well.

As soon as the camera turned back to Xiaoba, who had been waiting in the flower bed outside the train station, all the viewers in the theater couldn't help but tremble.

The first hour of the movie was almost full of touching and warm emotions.

It is precisely with this kind of foreshadowing that when the tear-jerking plot really comes, the audience can be truly involved.

From this scene on, Ye Zhiyuan forgot about film shooting techniques, light and shadow technology, and emotional stacking, and was completely immersed in the story of Hachi Gong.

Ye Zhiyuan wanted to know what happened next.

…

Waiting until night, Xiaoba was crawling on the flower bed, waiting for the arrival of his master as always.

But one train after another passed by, but that familiar figure was never seen.

It was the arrival of Professor Chen's son-in-law that brought Hachiko home.

Through the cracks in the dog house, Hachiko's eyes kept looking out, but he only heard hoarse crying coming from the house.

This is a cozy trap.

At this moment, all the viewers involuntarily fell into this trap.

After everyone in the audience got used to the daily life of Hachiko and the professor, and became accustomed to the warmth, Lin Qiu coldly waved the long knife in his hand and chopped off all these beautiful things.

The so-called beauty, like a dream, directly collapsed in the audience's world.

What followed was the most primitive sadness.

Xiaoba, who is humane, seems to know what happened, and his eyes cannot hide the loss while lying in the dog house.

The audience no longer regards Xiaoba as a dog, but as a member of the entire big family.

And the first tear point of the movie comes at this moment.

At Professor Chen's funeral, there was no sign of Xiaoba.

Xiaoba just looked at it from a distance, ran to the flower bed in front of the station and squatted down as usual, waiting for the arrival of his master as usual.

A close-up shot of Xiaoba's face.

Although there wasn't a single tear, Xiaoba's expression looked like he was sobbing.

It was this shot that made more than one audience member in the theater burst into tears subconsciously.

Listen, Xiaoba, you don't have to wait any longer.

He's not coming back.

In the snowy sky, the administrator of the train station squatted in front of Xiaoba and said slightly sadly.

Can Xiaoba understand it?

It is undoubtedly understandable.

But even though he understood, Xiaoba remained unmoved. He just kept squatting on the flower bed with a lonely expression and whined in a low voice.

…

Woo...

Tang Anning took the paper handed over by Xu Xin and wiped her tears.

Not only Tang Anning, there were also more and more sobbing sounds in the cinema.

Communication between people is often mixed with interests, especially in today's society.

But the relationship between people and animals, especially people and dogs, is pure emotion.

Xiaoba went to Professor Chen’s daughter’s new home.

But whenever there is a chance, Xiaoba will rush out of the door and run towards the familiar flower bed and the familiar train station!

After arriving at his new home, Xiaoba was still lonely at sunset, missing his professor and his master.

Or in the simple world of dogs, there is no such thing as master or master.

This is the definition given to them by humans.

Professor Chen's daughter felt heartbroken every time she saw Xiaoba standing by the railing at home, looking at the train station.

This time, she did not choose to keep her beloved Xiaoba by her side.

Instead, he loosened Xiaoba's collar.

Go, Xiaoba.

This time, when Xiaoba left, he didn't run away like crazy like before.

Instead, he turned his head and took a deep look, as if he was saying a final farewell to his relatives.

In the following years, Xiaoba waited for the professor in the flower bed outside the train station day after day.

When you are hungry, you will beg for food like the acquaintances around you.

At night, I would hide in a corner of a carriage and rest.

Canteen owners around the train station, train station employees, and acquaintances from some stores.

Whenever I see Xiaoba waiting for the professor, I will sit next to Xiaoba and chat with Xiaoba like an old friend.

No one thinks of Xiaoba as just a dog kept in captivity by humans.

But the most sincere friend of mankind.

An old friend with whom they communicate and confide.

…

The audience in the theater sobbed again.

At the same time, Ye Zhiyuan's tears suddenly welled up at this moment.

Ye Zhiyuan was moved not by Xiaoba waiting for the professor, but by the ordinary people who interacted with Xiaoba.

Every time these people sit next to Xiaoba, chatting with him and talking about the past years.

Ye Zhiyuan can feel the most sincere emotions in the movie.

This has nothing to do with technology or shooting techniques, it is the simplest and purest emotion.

perhaps……

“Am I too focused on shooting technique?”

Ye Zhiyuan was a little dazed.

Ye Zhiyuan's film shooting techniques have always been quite superb.

But works that are far from the level of masterpieces are always just a step away.

On the other hand, Lin Qiu, every film can touch people's hearts, and all of them receive high marks.

This is not just a matter of subject matter. The same subject matter can show the most sincere magic in Lin Qiu's hands.

When I see these acquaintances, holding Xiaoba in their arms, they sigh about the impermanence of life.

How many people can't be moved by this picture?

Even the filmmakers in the industry had tears in their eyes as they watched the movie screens flashing through the ever-changing seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter.

No matter it's windy or raining, or it's snowing or hailing, Hachiko is always here.

From the time when he was a cute and ignorant Xiaoba.

Ten years later, he became Hachiko, a hobbling old dog.

A dog's lifespan is limited.

A pastoral dog has a lifespan of 12 to 18 years after being born.

Today, Hachiko is very old, as if he has reached the twilight years of his life.

He was covered in filth, just like a real stray dog.

But the vendors around me would smile and say hello to Hachiko every time they passed by the station!

Everyone seemed to have feelings for this dirty bitch.

Ten years later.

Professor Chen's wife returned to her former home to worship her husband.

In the past ten years, my wife, who has been living in sorrow, has completely forgotten the existence of Xiaoba.

But when the wife played by Tang Jia was about to leave, she saw a familiar figure on the flower bed of the train station.

Even after ten years, Hachi has become Hachiko, his coat color is completely dull and he has lost the vitality in his past memories.

She still recognized Xiaoba at a glance!

Xiaoba!

Xiaoba...is that you?

Xiaoba...

Tang Jia stretched out his hand in front of Xiaoba.

And Xiaoba, just like ten years ago, licked Tang Jia's hand.

But now Xiaoba has long lost his vitality.

It seems that every movement he makes takes a lot of effort.

At this moment, the surrounding vendors looked at the flower beds of the train station from their windows and sighed slightly.

The professor did not witness Xiaoba's life, but they all did.

For the past ten years, Xiaoba has been here, rain or shine.

Even though he knows that waiting is meaningless, the memories of Xiaoba and the professor are all here.

From meeting and acquaintance to daily attachment and waiting, Xiaoba's world has long been filled with the shadow of the professor.

The audience's tears flowed down unconsciously.

If we say, the emotions in The Crucible are too far away from their lives.

Then everyone can relate to the story of Hachiko!

Because dogs are such animals.

If you have had a dog for three years, even if you come back after being away for a few years, the dog will still remember you and jump into your arms!

In the eyes of dogs, there are no prejudices such as identity, status and society.

It recognizes you and you are its lifelong friend. It will never abandon you no matter what and will always protect you.

From the time a dog is young until they grow old, their emotions do not change.

What's even more touching is.

Even in old age, dogs will run out of the house desperately when they sense that they are about to die.

Leave your master, run to a corner where no one can find you, and die quietly.

Because they don't want their owners to see them leaving.

…

[PS: There will be more at night~]
