He became a fish again.

A very large fish.

Enduring the pain caused by the curse, he flew in the sky with almost miraculous power, guided the girl with his huge body, escorted the girl along the way, and took the girl and her parents away from this dangerous place.

When approaching the exit.

They passed a sea.

The white dragon, who had become a big fish, couldn't hold on any longer, and fell into the sea whining, saying his final farewell to the girl.

This is a magical sea area with magical powers that can remind people of the past.

Therefore, the film tells the source of this story in flashback.

It turned out that when the little girl was young, she used to take the pocket money she had saved for half a month to buy her favorite snacks.

But passing by the sea, the young girl saw a fisherman selling a very beautiful fish. She thought the fish was very pitiful, so she bought the fish with money and released it——

That fish is the white dragon.

Then there are memories belonging to Bailong.

When he was still a fish, after countless efforts, he finally crossed the dragon gate, possessed the body of a white dragon, powerful cultivation, and the human form he had dreamed of.

He worked so hard because...

He wants to find the little girl and repay her.

But he didn't expect that at the moment of transforming into a dragon, he was caught by the evil mother-in-law and forced to become her pet.

The origin of the story is beyond the expectations of the audience.

It turned out that this encounter turned out to be a reunion after a long absence.

But what really made the audience unable to control their tear glands was the song that rang out suddenly with the memories of the sea: "The waves silently drowned the night deeply, overflowing the corner at the end of the sky, the big fish in the dream Swimming through the cracks, staring at your sleeping silhouette..."

Piano bursts.

The singing is curling up.

Movie theaters go quiet.

Hearing the singing sound like the waves, Zhao Yingchrome's action of sending popcorn to her mouth was frozen at this moment, as if she was hit by something for a moment, she was in a daze.

"Afraid you fly away

I'm afraid you will leave me

I'm even more afraid that you will stay here forever

every tear

flow to you

The bottom of the sea flowing back into the sky..."

The big fish and the girl bid farewell reluctantly, the singing echoes the story, and the next moment, the almost beautiful harmony surrounds everyone's ears, as if it came from the mysterious world in the movie. How many people are scalping at this moment? Numb.

"hiss."

Some audience members in the theater began to sob softly. Zhou Xiaoli, who was on Zhao Yingchrome's right, took out a tissue, but in a blink of an eye she had already used up half a pack, crying until her eyes were red and swollen.

The movie theater grew quieter.

The song at the end of the movie, with this movie, is a heavy tear gas bomb, and the harmony part of the song completely detonated the tear gas bomb, and no one in the theater was spared.

Friendship?

love?

The movie never clarifies this point, but when the big fish returns to the sea, only the broad back is exposed in the setting sun and drifts away, and the girl is still waving goodbye desperately in the raging tears.

far horizon.

The big fish dived into the bottom of the sea.

The end of the movie is also the end of the song, and the last sentence of the lyrics with tremolo is like a sharp dagger, piercing through the hearts of countless audiences: "Every tear...flows to you...backwards ...the first encounter..."

……

When the movie ended with subtitles, no one left the movie theater. In the slightly sour atmosphere, there were many discussions, but most of the discussions had a strong nasal voice similar to crying:

"I endured tears for more than an hour, but in the end I lost to a song."

"Every line of the lyrics is a knife, directly aimed at my heart, and the last line is a direct crit, and I am dead."

"I doubt I'll have the guts to watch the movie again without cutting the last song."

"Who wrote the song? Labor and management don't need money for their tears!"

"I now suspect that the whole movie is the MV of the last song."

"I was so naive. I thought it was a healing film, but I didn't expect it to be a depression film. In the end, this song kills people!"

"..."

There is also a woman with red eyes teasing the man next to her: "Husband, didn't you say that you never cry when you watch movies? Didn't you say that you hate the sensational thing the most? The so-called sensationalism is a professional technique for directors to trick the audience into tears. Why are you crying like a bear?"

"I didn't really cry when I watched the movie...until I heard this song."

This is the last stubbornness of a man.

"The paper is used up, do you have any more?" Zhou Xiaoli rubbed her nose and poked Zhao Yingchrome's arm with her arm.

"..."

Zhao Yingguo ignored it, her red eyes stared at the credits at the end of the film.

"What are you watching? The movie is over."

No tissues were found, so Zhou Xiaoli could only wipe her tears with her sleeves.

Zhao Yingchrome still did not respond until she saw the last subtitle of the movie, which was the information she had been looking for since the movie ended——

[Interlude/Impression Song/Soundtrack/Ending Song: "Big Fish"]

【Lyricist/Composer/Arranger: Xianyu】

【Singing: Jiang Kui】

【Special Thanks: Xianyu】

"Big fish..." She muttered these two words, and then, she seemed to recall something, and a blush suddenly appeared on her face:

"Xianyu, Xianyu!"

Zhou Xiaoli, who had just finished crying, had a strong nasal voice, and asked strangely, "What Xianyu? Why are you talking about it?"

"Xian Yu!"

Zhao Yingguo's voice was a little trembling: "The soundtrack of the movie was written by Xianyu, the song sent by Xingmang last time, was it written by Xianyu?"

Zhou Xiaoli woke up like a dream: "It seems to be..."

Zhao Yingguo stood up abruptly: "Let's go back and listen to the music!"

Chapter 25 Potential

Qi Zhou.

Not long after the premiere of "Fish and Dragon Dance", the film creators unanimously opened the evaluation of the work on Qizhou Film Network, including the film's director Zheng Li.

"Cry in the storm after watching the movie!"

"I announce that from today onwards, there will be another strong player in the genre of depressive films."

"I hope the producer will release a high-resolution picture of a white dragon turning into a big fish and flying in the sky. I will use it as a wallpaper."

"The song at the end hurts my heart."

"After reading the subtitles, the song "Big Fish" at the end is the best impression song of the year, bar none."

"I was quite sad after watching the movie, and then I heard my buddies say that the whole movie is the MV of the last song, and I burst out laughing instantly."

"The movie is okay, but the lyrics of the last song are too abusive."

"..."

A movie with a perfect score of 8.5, "Fish and Dragon Dance" currently has a score of [-], and a group of creators immediately cheered: "This is the rhythm of our fire!"

That's a high score!

It has far exceeded the expectations of the creators.

After all, "Dance of the Fish and Dragon" is not a huge production, and the promotional cast and filming are both at the mid-range level in the same period. If this kind of work wants to become popular, doesn't it have to rely on the film's reputation?

While cheering, everyone naturally noticed the discussion about "Big Fish" in the comments.

The producer didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "A lot of people say our movie is the MV of "Big Fish"."

"I actually think there is some truth in what I said."

Another main creator next to him answered with a strange expression.

"Now do you understand why I am so strict with the soundtrack?" Zheng Li was in a good mood and didn't feel offended by the comments because she knew most people were just joking around.

Looking at it from another angle, this is the audience praising her for the well-matched song at the end.

She herself admitted that the last song "Big Fish" added points to the movie.

Whether it is the artistic conception and vocals of the song or the lyrics that perfectly fit the plot, they have maximized the resonance between the audience and the movie.

Before this.

Zheng Li also scratched her head and thought about how to end the film. The tone of the whole film of "Fish and Dragon Dance" is slightly sad. This kind of sadness has accumulated a lot when the film is about to end. She needs someone to detonate the audience's emotions. point -

Obviously, in the end, "Big Fish" became the focus of detonating emotions.

At this moment, Zheng Li's cell phone rang, and it was from the investor.

"The movie was well done!"

The representative of the investor was a little excited: "The company decided to increase the promotion of "Dance of the Fish and Dragon". I have already sent someone to contact the theater to increase the film's schedule. In addition, you have to call Qinzhou and send That last song..."

Zheng Li said, "Big Fish."

The representative of the investor said in succession: "Yes, yes, it is "Big Fish". If you invite the singer of this song to our Qizhou, and let her sing this song during the publicity, the effect must be very good!"

"Row."

Zheng Li changed the subject: "Aren't you very opposed to me spending 500 million to buy a song before, and you said that the soundtrack is not that important, and all the funds should be used on the screen. I begged for a long time before you agreed to let me spend 500 Wan customized this song."

Zheng Li has high requirements for the soundtrack.

Before, the investor felt that it was too wasteful for Zheng Li to use 500 million yuan to customize a song that fits "Fish and Dragon Dance".

"Didn't you do what you said in the end?"

The investor said embarrassingly: "In this way, I guarantee that the investment in your next work will increase, including the money for the soundtrack, and I will also give enough! You are more professional than us in making movies, and sometimes we don't understand. You should communicate with us more. It can also be resolved."

In any industry, performance speaks.

Before the future of "Fish and Dragon Dance" was uncertain, the attitude of the investors was still very high. These days, it was the uncle who gave the money.

But look at the current wind direction.

Zheng Li's movie is definitely going to be popular, and the investors have to temporarily put down their stance to coax Zheng Li, a director who can make money for the company, and even take the initiative to mention the topic of investment in the next movie, which means that Zheng Li, the director The status of the industry has been improved to a certain extent.

"It's settled!"

Zheng Li said with a smile.

Now she is thinking about cooperating with Xianyu on the soundtrack of the next work, and even showing the full version of the plot to Xianyu. Anyway, now she doesn't recognize anyone, only the sign of Xianyu.

……

Qinzhou, Xingmang's reaction was also very fast. The film almost ended its premiere, and the sound source of "Big Fish" appeared on the recommendation positions of major music software at the same time. Interested viewers had no trouble finding the song.

And in Xingmang's supervisor's office.

Lao Zhou even stayed in front of the computer early in the morning, waiting for the evaluation and feedback of "Big Fish". Judging from his years of experience, this song is definitely likely to be a big hit, because these music recommendations are his reminder resources Arranged by the Ministry.

This is true.

Just 5 minutes after its launch, the download volume of "Big Fish" quickly exceeded [-], and the song comment area was even more lively——
