It took Huo Feile two minutes to figure out how to get the movie tickets that he had ordered online from the machine.
It was a new experience for his idol. Before, he didn't need to buy a ticket to watch a movie, or he had an assistant to do it for him. When he was a teenager, there was no such thing as an automatic ticket machine!
Today, Huo Feile came to watch a movie in the capital. He sneaked out without his assistant, and he didn't want others to find out what he was doing.
Therefore, he wore a mask and glasses, and chose a time when there were fewer people in the afternoon.
There were only a few minutes left before the movie started. Huo Feile took the ticket, passed through the gate, and entered the movie hall.
What surprised him was that at such an unpopular time, the theater with more than 200 seats had an occupancy rate of more than 50%. Basically, all the good seats were occupied, and many of them were girls.
Huo Feile's seat was number 11 in the seventh row. When he found a seat, two girls next to him glanced at him curiously. They probably felt that he looked weird with a mask and glasses on.
Huo Feile really wanted to take off his disguise to see their reaction, but he held back his impulse when he thought of the purpose of sneaking out today.
Two minutes later, more people came in, and the number of seats was increased to about 65%.
Although Huo Feile was unhappy, he had to admit that the amazing box office result of the movie was real. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people supporting it.
From the discussions of the audience, he could tell that they didn't come here with free tickets. They were real audience members and Lu Chen's fans!
That's right. Huo Feile came to watch The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer, which had been on the air for nine days. As of yesterday, the total box office of the movie had exceeded 700 million yuan. It was almost a billion yuan!
As the male lead of The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer, the first domestic martial arts blockbuster released by Wanhao Pictures during the summer, Huo Feile had been disturbed by the news about The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer.
The box office of The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer exceeded 100 million yuan in a single day!
The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer beat Hollywood blockbuster!
The peripheral sales of The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer reached a new high!
The Smiling, Proud Wanderer …
Although it had been a few months, Huo Feile was still very unhappy. The investment of Young Jianghu was more than that of The Smiling, The Proud Wanderer. It had been widely promoted, and it was the first Wuxia blockbuster. The content was adapted from a popular novel. It should have been a hit, but it turned out that it didn't even recover its cost.
And because of this movie, he was ridiculed by many people as a box office poison. He didn't receive any decent movie engagements for a few months, and even his popularity dropped a lot.
Seeing that The Smiling, The Proud Swordsman was so popular, Huo Feile didn't want to admit defeat. Therefore, he wanted to see for himself whether the movie had some special magic that could create a miracle when the Wuxia blockbusters had a bad reputation.
He also wanted to see if Lu Chen was really stronger than him!
The lights in the cinema slowly dimmed, and the title appeared on the screen. The movie had officially begun.
Huo Feile took off his glasses and leaned back in his seat. He looked at the screen in front of him with a critical gaze.
He was like a strict film critic.
The light and shadow intertwined, and the story slowly unfolded. Huo Feile had read the entire novel of The Smiling, The Proud Swordsman, so he was familiar with the plot in the book. However, the movie was obviously different from the novel.
The content that could be shown in two hours was always limited. Compared to the millions of words in the original novel, the importance of the adaptation of the script was undeniable.
Young Jianghu made a mistake in this aspect, and was criticized by the fans of the novel for not making any changes. It was also one of the main reasons why the box office was not good.
"Lu Chen is so handsome!"
Huo Feile frowned when he heard the soft voice from the seat next to him. However, the male lead on the screen was indeed very handsome, and his clothes and accessories were very old-fashioned. It didn't make people feel that he was out of character.
When Huo Feile compared his slightly exaggerated appearance in Young World, he suddenly felt a burning sensation on his face. It was an awkward feeling.
Fortunately, the latter part of the story attracted his attention, so he didn't fall into an embarrassing thought.
Then, laughter, exclamations, and even applause appeared as the story progressed, and the nitpicking in Huo Feile's eyes turned into enlightenment.
Although he had his own opinions, Huo Feile had to admit that Lu Chen's The Smiling, The Proud Swordsman was much more exciting than his Young Jianghu.
It was too exciting!
Especially the fighting scenes, the use of the camera and the design of the movements, all gave people a strong sense of beauty, which made people excited and intoxicated.
Huo Feile couldn't figure out how some of the scenes were shot. The special effects were definitely at the top level of Hollywood, which were exquisite and original.
Huo Feile felt embarrassed when he thought of the fighting scenes in Young Jianghu. There would be no harm if there was no comparison. No wonder people said that The Smiling, The Proud Swordsman was a real Wuxia film!
In addition to the exciting fighting scenes, the story was also smooth and complete. Coupled with the magnificent or picturesque background, it actually looked like an epic movie.
When the ending song, which was the theme song of The Smiling, The Proud Swordsman, played, Huo Feile still wanted to watch more!
Therefore, when he left the cinema, he couldn't describe the feeling in his heart with words.
The Smiling, The Proud Swordsman was excellent, and it made him understand what a real Wuxia film was like. It was definitely not a lousy fantasy film with special effects.
In this film, Lu Chen played many roles, including the leading actor, the action director, the scriptwriter, and the arranger. Huo Feile could imagine how disappointed he was.
Compared to Lu Chen, he was lagging behind in all aspects.
Before Huo Feile walked out of the cinema, he heard a noise from a shop on the side of the hall, which attracted his attention again.
The accessories of The Smiling, The Proud Swordsman were on sale there. There were handmade dolls, original albums, T-shirts, toys, stationery, phone cases … There were a lot of customers in front of the dazzling products.
Huo Feile stopped and started walking again. He didn't want to stay here any longer, because he was afraid that his jealousy would devour him!
