I really don't want to be a superstar

Chapter 304, Truman, come on
From time to time, the movie camera shoots the protagonist 'Truman' from a very hidden voyeuristic perspective.This made Xiao Yuning have a weird feeling, as if he was not watching a movie, but a small website starting with 9.
But I have to say that this kind of voyeuristic perspective that appears from time to time allows Xiao Yuning to regain his sense of substitution.

Instead of bringing in the role of the protagonist Truman.

Instead, bring in the role of the bystander.

Afterwards, the protagonist, like an ordinary office worker, passed an ordinary day. During this period, he kept calling and inquiring about the tourist attractions of 'Hainan Island'
It's just that the other side of the phone told him that there is no such place as Hainan Island.

Truman just returned home disappointed.

At this time, a beautiful woman appeared.

He is Truman's wife in "The Truman Show".

"Husband, I bought it from the supermarket today. It is a super strong detergent, Mr. Mighty. It works quickly, removes stains well, and is non-toxic."

The lens suddenly starts to zoom in.

Xiao Yuning was stunned suddenly.

Such a hard-core and aboveboard product placement.

This is too irritating!
"There's Tide, no stains, and quick results."

"I've never seen such hardcore product placement."

"I found a terrible thing. This ad placement is quite hardcore, but I don't feel any sense of disobedience, as if the ad should really be there."

There was also a wave of updates on Weibo comments, saying that the placement of this advertisement was really hard to guard against.

According to common sense, placing advertisements will largely destroy the audience's sense of substitution and let the audience play.

However, this "The Truman Show" made them feel very subtle.

Watching the product placement in "The Truman Show" did not make them feel uncomfortable or off-screen, but instead strengthened their sense of substitution.

This is the first time they have a movie that would be weird if it didn't have ads.

Feeling the growing sense of substitution, Xiao Yuning understood.

The essence of this movie.

He doesn't want you to experience the film as the protagonist, but to let you see it from the perspective of the 'audience'.

"It seems that this movie with 10 advertisements is not that simple."

"How about Truman's world reputation, it must be about to explode."

Xiang Chenghua was sitting in the office.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, for him, and for Liu Jing as well.

He understands the importance of the premiere. Generally speaking, the subsequent results are linked to the premiere.

As for Li Yun's provocation of "The Battle of the Great Wall", Xiang Chenghua and Liu Jing were really surprised.

He actually did it.

Provocative, does he really think that his movie with ten advertisements can win "Battle of the Great Wall"?

To be honest, before the movie was released, Xiang Chenghua had already made up his mind. It seemed that his "Happy Comedian" could hardly beat "The Battle of the Great Wall".

"Battle of the Great Wall" has all the qualities to be a high-quality movie, and "Happy Comedian" can be No.2 with peace of mind.

Xiang Chenghua himself was a little moved by Chen Kaimou, he was able to invite a well-known Hollywood team to do special effects for him.

This is not only a manifestation of China Entertainment's financial resources, but also a manifestation of Chen Kaimou's connections.

After all, not everyone can hire a Hollywood team
Xiang Chenghua wondered if he should put some thought into fixing Chen Kaimou
It's like poaching Liu Jing.

"Well, I guess word-of-mouth should not explode." Xiao Wang on the side analyzed: "After all, the fans who will choose to watch the premiere of "The Truman Show" at this time are basically fans who have some points for the 10 commercials, and they have to wait to receive it." After a few days, the word of mouth should explode substantially."

"Well, there should be people who were attracted to the movie theater by Li Yun's name. Read the reviews, Xiao Wang."

"Ok."

Following Xiang Chenghua's instructions, Xiao Wang opened Weibo.
However.
Xiang Chenghua's expected bad reviews are flooding
No.

"Boss, no one has bad reviews for ads."

"Um???"

"I even praised Li Yun for his ingenious placement of advertisements."

The scene suddenly fell silent.

The air in the office is eerily quiet.

"Let me see."

Xiang Chenghua didn't believe it, so he went over to have a look.

He really doesn't believe that the ad can still... rave reviews?
Did I enter the wrong world line or something?
However.
Look at Chenghua.

Really rave reviews.
Really praise the ingenious insertion of advertisements.
Xiang Chenghua shut himself up.

What happened to this world?
Truman suspects that this world is false.

From the beginning when the lamp named 'Northern Star' fell, he began to doubt it. Combined with the situation he encountered when he met the heroine Roland before, his feeling became even stronger.

Truman suspected that he was being watched.

He felt like it was a prison.

He found his best friend.

He is "Truman's Fat Boy". In the crew, except for the actor Truman and the heroine Roland, everyone else uses code names like "Truman's Fat Boy", "Truman's Mother" and "Truman's Wife". .

The name was not revealed from the beginning to the end, as if this is a large-scale stage play.

A stage play featuring Truman.

Truman told Fa Xiao that he wanted to escape, and he wanted to buy a ticket to go to sea and leave the island.

He wanted to go to 'Hainan Island' to find Roland, the girl who was taken away when he met him.

Fa Xiao said with a deep face.

"There's no better place than here, there's nothing out there, you're happy here."

Truman didn't listen.

He was obstinate about leaving the island.

But this island will not let Truman leave, or the director of "The Truman Show" will not let him leave.

Truman chose to travel by plane—the plane was out of tickets.

Choose to travel by car - the car breaks down.

For Truman, it was as if the whole world was against him.

As the plot continued to develop, Truman realized more and more that something was wrong, and he wanted to escape.

But the 'director' restrained Truman in a way.

He let Truman's "father" who died because of drowning in the sea since childhood was "resurrected" in front of Truman.

Bind Truman with the lost family.

When the father and son embraced each other and wept, the secret of the whole 'Truman Show' was revealed.

It's a huge island, a huge set.

More than 5000 cameras are installed on it, and the live broadcast is carried out 24 hours a day.

Before Truman was born, he was chosen as the leading actor in this "The Truman Show".

People all over the world watched him be born, grow up, and marry.

Everyone on the island knows that this is a show, only Truman, he thinks this is his own life.

This is the hottest show in the world.

Truman show.

Although he knew it a long time ago, Xiao Yuning still felt a tingling shock when everything was uncovered and exposed.

A person, from birth to growing up, is clearly arranged.

Xiao Yuning only felt the creeps from the bottom of his heart.

Of course, in this movie, some people were dissatisfied with the 'director''s approach.

She is Roland, the one whom the protagonist Truman never forgets.

She condemned the director, who she said had turned Truman's life into a mess.

However, the director answered this question head-on.

"This world is sick, full of desire, malice, and pain."

"The world Truman lives in is the correct world."

"Is the world Truman lives in right?"

"Frankly speaking, there is too much helplessness and pain in this world. If I can live the same life as Truman, I don't mind being arranged like this."

"Life is precious, but love is more expensive. If it is for freedom, both can be thrown away. Although Truman has gained a perfect life, what he has lost is freedom!"

"I feel sad for some people's values. You think Truman is happy, but do you think the bird in the cage is happy? The bird in the cage also has no worries about food and drink and doesn't have to think about it every day. It's just being locked in a cage every day and can't go anywhere. Truman Isn't that what he is now?"

"Upstairs, you feel sad for some people's values, and I feel sad for you spoiler dog"

Discussions about this matter began on Weibo, which inevitably involved some spoilers.

For this reason, those who wanted to see it hurriedly blocked Weibo "The World of Truman", but their hearts were itchy.

What kind of movie is The Truman World?
Is it a bad movie for money?
In fact, many fans of Li Yun are a little entangled. After all, a movie ticket costs dozens of yuan.

Many friends who are cash-strapped can only support Li Yun spiritually, but economically, it is better to support movies that seem to be more sincere.

For example, "Happy Comedian" by Family Carnival.

Another example is "Battle of the Great Wall", which has a luxurious lineup that makes people tremble.

Both films, at least in terms of performance, are worth the price of admission.

As for "The Truman Show", at least for now, there are feelings.

But the movie box office is not maintained by feelings.

However, is "The Truman Show" really a bad movie?

Will a bad movie with just enough money really cause such a high degree of discussion?

Going to Weibo is afraid of being spoiled, and if you don’t go to Weibo, you can’t read the comments of the pioneers.

Many people hesitate.

or
to see?
Truman behaved as usual, he worked, lived, and greeted his neighbors friendly and enthusiastically.

It seems that he has forgotten his purpose of escaping.

The show's 'director' used Truman's dead father to restrain him, and it seemed to work.

But has he really succeeded?

No.

At this time, in the director's office, Truman's figure disappeared.

It turned out that he escaped from surveillance by digging a hole in the ground. He came to the surface of the sea, and his desire for freedom overcame his fear.

The director quickly turned on the storm system, just to stop Truman, but Truman didn't have any fear in the face of the storm, instead he berated the black hand behind the scenes who controlled his life.

He is fearless.

At this moment.

Xiao Yuning has already forgotten.

I forgot my identity as a film critic.

He just wants to enjoy this movie as an audience.

"Truman, come on."
