Chapter 531 Treble
"The plot may be a little cliché, but the acting skills and looks of the protagonist make this movie really eye-catching. It's definitely worth watching!"
This is the highly praised review of "The Lady Wears Chanel" on Rotten Tomatoes. The 80% freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes also proves the quality of this movie.
Story-wise, this is indeed a smooth workplace movie without much twist, but both the acting and the production of the movie are excellent.
From the perspective of a commercial film, this is definitely a conscientious film, and it unexpectedly suits the tastes of American audiences. Fashion, luxury goods, and big brands are all keywords that are part of the daily life of many Americans. It can be said that It is so down-to-earth that even though most of the starring actors in this movie have Chinese faces, they can still watch it with gusto.
Of course, Miranda, played by Luo Quan, is definitely the most dazzling person, even overshadowing the real heroine Andy. If the film's perspective was not mainly focused on Andy, almost no one would doubt Miranda. He is the protagonist of this movie.
Generally speaking, movies in which the second protagonist overwhelms the first protagonist usually make the movie appear to have no priority, resulting in a very strange look and feel.
However, this movie does not have such a situation, because the role played by Luo Quan originally needs to achieve such an effect, and the movie title also revealed the truth early on. How can a "queen" not be more beautiful than others?
Being able to interpret the character to this point is Luo Quan's success, and it is also a reflection of her amazing acting skills.
In the past, she played either a flower vase or a star role. Movie fans came here for her and her skills, but they really didn't pay much attention to her acting skills.
Well now, Luo Quan directly presented the audience with such an unexpected performance with a role that subverted her previous image, and at the same time launched her first impact on the Oscar-winning actress.
Yes, Oscar-winning actress, whether in the eyes of passers-by or professional film critics, Luo Quan's performance in the movie is worthy of the title of Oscar-winning actress.
In terms of perception alone, Ruth in "Titanic", the best movie this year, is definitely not as deeply rooted in people's hearts as Miranda.
Although the performances of Carillian and Leon are also excellent, they are largely due to the plot. The audience was preconceivedly moved by the poignant love between the two.
The plot of "The Queen Wears Chanel" is not that touching. The image of the characters in the play is entirely supported by the characters and the acting skills of the actors, and the latter plays a greater role.
There is no doubt that Luo Quan is better in this aspect. If there is one person who can act better between Carillian and her, it would definitely be Luo Quan.
Of course, the movie has just been released, and winning awards is still far away. The Oscar ceremony will not be announced for more than half a year. The most important thing for the movie now is word-of-mouth and box office.
The domestic box office has exceeded 600 million yuan on the fourth day, and the box office in North America will reach 80 million US dollars. The results are similar, and the total box office has exceeded 1 billion yuan.
For an urban comedy, such an achievement is already a record-breaking one. There are few films of the same type that can achieve better results than it.
As for word-of-mouth, at first it was rave reviews from all over the Internet. After four days, there was no major reversal. However, there were still some controversies on some issues, such as whether the movie promoted consumerism and whether the values of the movie were Correct, are today's young people really what they look like in the movies?
Luo Quan had expected these controversies to arise. After all, there are so many elements of fashion and luxury goods in the movie. In many places, to put it bluntly, it would be to show off your wealth. She also knows this.
However, the fashion circle is such a circle, and in China, the public generally does not have a particularly good impression of this circle, so it is normal for controversy to arise.
She wasn't going to explain it, because everything was in the movie.
After the protagonist Andy has seen the prosperity of the fashion industry, he still chooses to give up and chase his dreams. Isn't this the best explanation?
Of course, she's not saying there's anything wrong with pursuing fashion or material things. Individuals have their own preferences. As long as they don't violate laws and disciplines and don't affect others, they can do whatever they think in their hearts.
Therefore, whether it is the debates on Weibo or Zhihu, they will not have any impact on the values that the movie itself wants to express. They will only increase traffic for the movie, which is what Luo Quan wants to see the most.
Under such a favorable public opinion environment, the movie's popularity and box office also grew in a positive manner, and it finally exceeded one billion after the sixth day of release.
At this moment, the hidden achievements of the system are also completed.
"Congratulations to the host for achieving a hidden achievement: shooting a domestic movie and earning a box office of 1 billion in the country!
The reward is drawn once randomly, and there is a high probability of getting the best props! "
"The best props?" Luo Quan was surprised and happy. I still don't know what the best props look like. Are they very powerful? "
"It's not that powerful..." The system paused for a moment, and then said seriously: "Actually, the host has owned top-level props before, such as Kyokushin Kate."
"I understand, it's an ability that ordinary people can't achieve, right?" Luo Quan said excitedly, "If I get a top talent like stock trading or doing business, can I become a business tycoon instantly?"
"The theory is like this, but the probability of drawing the best is very low. Even if this drawing is an enhanced drawing obtained through hidden achievements, the probability is still low."
"It doesn't matter, I believe in my luck." Luo Quan touched his face, and he looked like this. Isn't it like holding a lottery or something?
Without further ado, Luo Quan started to draw directly, hoping to get into the soul with one shot!
"Get an ability specialization of your choice. After using it, you will directly get an S+ level ability specialization!"
"Damn, it's not the best." Luo Quan was disappointed. She had been very lucky all along, but she turned dark when she needed it most...
The so-called ability specialization is actually things like playing the piano, dancing, and painting in the mall. For her now, she only needs to think about it to have it.
However, these abilities in the mall can only be redeemed up to A level, and this one is directly S+.
It is still useful, but it is not as good as Kyokushin Kamate. It is tasteless and would be a pity to throw away.
At the moment, she doesn't have much to improve, so after drawing this item, she temporarily threw it in the warehouse to gather dust until she needs to use it.
Originally, he was quite happy to receive a reward for completing a hidden achievement, but as a result, Luo Quan became a little unmotivated when he was possessed by a ghost.
After turning off the system, Luo Quan opened the live broadcast room of Station B.
After the movie was released in the past few days, Luo Quan's work has basically ended, and he has been broadcasting live broadcasts for fans at Tan Gong's home.
She will be going to Tokyo in a while. Judging from her schedule, she probably won't be able to return to the country for a long time. After this semester, she will go to the United States to film until next year.
The winter vacation in Japan is generally short. It is estimated that after filming is over, she will return to Japan to prepare for her graduation year.
The academic system in Japan is different from that in China. Although there are two semesters in an academic year, the first semester is in April and the second semester is in October.
When Luo Quan left, it was the first semester of the second academic year. He had been an exchange student at Shangyi for a year. When he came back, he started studying in the second semester of the third academic year.
This time next year will be her last semester at the University of Tokyo.
In fact, most college students are basically working in their senior year. For the school part, they only need to complete the credits, pass the exam, and then complete the thesis, and then they can wait to get their diploma.
Therefore, the next semester will be the busiest time for Luoquan.
She still has a lot of credits to take and she has to study hard for exams, so domestic fans may not be able to meet her every day like before.
So she took advantage of her free time to broadcast more live broadcasts to her fans.
She also talked about this in the live broadcast before, but the fans in the live broadcast room thought that she would never do it again. A bunch of big men burst into tears in the live broadcast room, making her dumbfounded.
After the explanation, fans became much more emotionally stable and expressed their willingness to wait for her for half a year, hoping that she could complete the credit examination and thesis at the University of Tokyo as soon as possible.
Luo Quan was talking quickly, but his mind was thinking about what method he should use to get the credits while fishing.
After thinking about it, there seemed to be no other good way. The University of Tokyo was still quite strict in terms of student management. It was impossible for her to get through it. She had not learned so much knowledge, and it was impossible to make up for it in a short time.
Fortunately, she has a system and everything like exams is a piece of cake.
"The broadcast starts again today. Let me ask you first. How many fans are there in the live broadcast who haven't gone to the movies? Raise your paws." Luo Quan pulled the camera and asked.
Then, a dense barrage floated by:
“There is already a gun version on the WeChat official account.”
"Zhongzhong Film and Television even has high-definition resources..."
"It's not that I'm reluctant to pay for the movie tickets, it's mainly that I'm too lazy to go out. If I can spend money to watch it directly on my mobile phone, I won't be stingy."
"Haha, stop doing this."
"Haha, there are too many free prostitutes."
"Your attitude is really difficult to handle."
………………
Seeing these barrages, Luo Quan smiled helplessly and said: "I don't know if you are really just asking for prostitution or if you have already gone there to say this deliberately, but it doesn't matter. Now the movie's box office is already very good, so I won't do any promotion here.
However, support for the genuine version must not be ambiguous at any time. If you don't want to read pirated versions, you should try not to read them.
I have a lot of money, so I can still make a profit if I pirate more copies, but some producers may not have the capital I have. One more pirated copy means more losses.
This applies not only to movies, but also to music and games. The lack of improvement in domestic entertainment is largely due to the existence of piracy. "
"Uuuuuuuuah, stop scolding me. I won't watch pirated copies in the future."
"Actually, I'm just kidding, I bought a movie ticket on the first day it was released."
"It's true. If piracy becomes popular, who can be the creator of culture in the future?"
"Now that copyright awareness has increased, there are still many more paying users than before. I can only say that I hope the environment will get better and better."
………………
"Haha, suddenly the topic is a bit heavy." Luo Quan seemed to be a little depressed when he saw the barrage, and immediately burst out with a smile: "We can't just rely on our group to deal with the general environment. The entire network has to change together. We Just do what you have to do, and I believe things will get better one day.
Okay, that’s it for this topic. Since there’s no big news recently, I won’t do a focus interview. Everyone, please request songs. Post whatever songs you want to hear in the barrage, and I’ll sing whichever song has the most songs. "
This time, the barrage immediately became active again:
"I play your songs on repeat every day and I'm tired of hearing them."
"How is it possible? I never get tired of listening to Luo Quan's songs."
"How stupid. This is obviously because he wants Luo Quan to write a new song for everyone!"
"Let's play a new song. You should still have some in stock, right?"
……………………
"Since you've all said this, let's write a new song." At this time, Luo Quan basically tried her best to meet the fans' requirements, and "writing" a song was indeed not difficult for her. , "So what type of new songs do you want to listen to?"
"The whole song is high-pitched. I don't want to listen to soft love songs anymore."
"Let's play foreign language songs. I've been listening to too many Chinese songs recently, so I want to change my taste."
"Give me a high note that will destroy the world!"
"You can have this."
………………
Seeing that everyone in the barrage asked her to sing a high note, Luo Quan smiled: "This is what you said, the high note that will destroy the world, right? I'll be the one to sing it!"
As he said that, he took out the pen and staff directly from the drawer, and quickly wrote down a series of beautiful notes and words on them.
The lyrics written by Luo Quan this time were not in Japanese or English, but because the music score was facing the camera upside down, a group of fans did not recognize what language it was and thought it was another language created by Luo Quan.
Fortunately, a big boss soon finally determined what language it was, and posted a barrage in the live broadcast room: "It looks like Russian."
"Oh, that's great, it's also a Russian song."
"I never knew Luo Quan could speak Russian. I had never heard her speak it before."
"Just because Luo Bao doesn't say something doesn't mean she doesn't know how to do it. (Gotou)"
"Speaking of which, this is probably your first time singing a Russian song, right?"
"The previous song "Waltz No. 2" was quite sloppy and very nice to listen to."
"The media at home and abroad have praised that song like crazy. How can it not sound good?"
"I think it's not as good as Canon."
“‘Für Elise’ is also good.”
"What's there to argue about? Which song written by Luo Quan is not good?"
………………
Just when fans were arguing that Luo Quan's song was better, she had already written the lyrics and music, and the song was called "Opera 2"!
