Chapter 712 Effort and Talent

"Forrest Gump" has swept the American film market, and major theaters have directly arranged more than 80% of their film schedules for it during this off-season.

That is to say, eight of the ten auditoriums in the theater are showing "Forrest Gump".

As a result, every movie theater is packed to capacity. There is an endless stream of people who have come to see this "American Dream" movie for second or third time.

However, this situation is actually no stranger to the Chinese people.

After all, when "Wolf Warrior 2" was released, the battles were even more exaggerated than this.

In comparison, there are fewer Americans, so the scene may not be as fiery as China.

But judging from the enthusiastic response on the Internet, "Forrest Gump" has definitely reached the point where everyone can watch the movie.

It's all about Amway and bragging about it. Many film critics even called it the greatest American movie of the new century.

Although it is a bit exaggerated, in this case, no one dared to raise any objections.

When the general trend takes shape, personal opinions no longer matter.

Anyone who dares to block it will be crushed to ashes by the rolling wheels.

In this case, going along with it is the best option.

Another situation that has made the media write a lot is that the US stock market has recovered.

The stock price, which was originally in danger, miraculously survived and even rose with the support of retail investors who regained their confidence.

Although the increase is minimal, this is obviously great news.

As long as the market is bullish, more and more people will be willing to enter the market, and then a virtuous cycle will enter.

Not to mention how much it will skyrocket, but at least it won't collapse in a short time.

Although I don’t want to admit it, a movie has indeed done something that even the government cannot do.

The "American Dream" woven by Luo Quan actually saved everyone.

Amid the calls of tens of millions of people online, Time Magazine finally got the opportunity to interview Luo Quan once again through hard work, and the interview was broadcast live on the Internet.

And this time it’s not just her, but also the two leading actors, Leon and Carillian. The theme of the interview is “American Dream”.

This interview was for the general public, so Time magazine changed its previous serious style and held the interview in a talk show venue.

There were three sofas, one for the host, two for the guests, and a bunch of spectators under the stage. Once this configuration came out, the atmosphere seemed quite relaxed.

Luo Quan was dressed quite casually for this interview, wearing a military green canvas jacket and a pair of jeans. Everyone thought she would dress up or something.

Before the interview started, Time magazine carried out a vigorous promotion, so that before it even started, the YouTube live broadcast room had more than one million viewers.

You know, the number of people on YouTube is a real person.

It is truly the first time in history that millions of people watch it at the same time.

The main reason is that "Forrest Gump" is in the limelight. These three are also currently top international stars. They are extremely popular. It is not surprising that they have such a huge amount of attention.

Luo Quan even felt that it was appropriate to have so many people, otherwise it would be a shame for her as a celebrity.

Of course, although she was very crazy in her heart, she still behaved quite gentle and well-behaved after attending the scene, greeting the audience's cheers and waving to them.

Leon followed closely behind, and as soon as he came out, the female fans below immediately screamed with an eardrum-piercing voice.

Although his relationship with Mia has been public for some time, many fans online have announced that they have quit being fans.

But this does not seem to have much impact on Lyon's career.

There is no way, he has too many fans, and the number of die-hard fans is even larger. A small group of people have spoken out about losing fans, but in fact, the majority are silent.

But now, it is definitely not the time to be silent. All female fans are cheering for Lyon, whose career has reached a new peak.

"Forrest Gump" is a hit all over the United States. As the protagonist, Lyon is naturally the one who is mentioned the most, almost on par with director Luo Quan.

Forrest Gump's state of being 70% persistent and 30% silly was perfectly performed by Leon, and his acting skills were explosive.

What's even more terrible is that his image has reached an incomparable fusion with the American dream and has become the most perfect incarnation.

Everyone was extremely satisfied with Leon's image and thought that Forrest Gump cast him to play the role, which was as flawless as this movie.

When the new popular king appeared, the female host also stood up and cheered. Judging from her posture, she was probably a fan of Lyon.

When Carillian came out from the back, the audience burst into applause, and her voice was not much softer than that of Leon.

If Forrest Gump is the hope of all audiences.

The occasions when Jenny appears are basically the climax or tear point in the movie.

She is the white moonlight in Forrest Gump's heart, and she is also the meaning in the hearts of the audience.

Everyone smiled when they saw her finally achieving success with Forrest Gump.

And her death also made everyone feel extremely sad.

Carillian played such a complex character so well that there was no fault to be found.

Compared to Forrest Gump, the touch she brought was actually stronger.

It can be said that this is the only time Luo Quan has been suppressed by others. In the past, she dominated the audience, and the loudest and fiercest cheers were often hers.

"Welcome to our interview site. I believe that after the movie is broadcast, you have heard countless messages of congratulations."

After the host gave a brief greeting, he looked at the guests and went straight to the topic.

Luo Quan nodded lightly: "Yes, someone told me how much the movie sold at the box office just one hour after the movie was released. I responded by saying it was great, but in my heart I was thinking, isn't this what it should be.

If these three names of me, Leon, and Karilian are put on the poster, even if the advertisement is shown for two hours, I think many people will walk into the cinema to see what kind of advertisement this is that can put our names together. . "

A little humor immediately filled the studio with laughter.

"For this movie, I think the pressure to play Forrest Gump's Leon should be very high. Did you experience insomnia during the filming period?"

"Oh, forget it." Leon spread his hands and shook his head: "It was a really difficult time. I spent a long time thinking about whether I was worthy of this American dream, and what the effect of the performance would be. What does it look like? Will it be smashed?

Although I am usually very confident, I still seemed a little confused this time. Fortunately, my sister encouraged me.

She told me that as my brother, Luo Quan, I will not allow you to behave so unmanly.

More importantly, hundreds of millions of dollars of investment have been spent. If you don’t get the final shot, I will prop you up on a clothes pole and hang you on the balcony! "

This revelation of my sister's cruel character once again aroused laughter from the entire audience.

No one expected that Luo Quan, who looked so gentle, would have such an exaggerated contrast in private.

"Oh my God, Carillian, is what Leon said true? Please tell him that this is nonsense. I don't want the image of the goddess in my mind to collapse like this."

The host looked at Carillian expectantly, but she just shrugged: "You know, she is my boss. According to the employee agreement, if you make the boss lose face at will, your salary will be deducted."

This was originally used by Luo Quan against Wen Xia, but now it was brought up by Carillian, which she did not expect.

"So, what Leon said is true." The host's eyes widened, looking quite surprised.

Carillian suppressed a smile and nodded: "If you were an employee of Luo Quan, your salary would have been deducted by now."

The whole audience burst into laughter again.

"Come on, Luo Quan, tell me what you think." The host handed the stage to Luo Quan.

"Fake news." Luo Quan raised his hands to play the harmonium and said with a pout.

Just a small action directly set off the atmosphere inside and outside the stadium.

When it comes to who is the most trafficked Internet celebrity in the United States at the moment, it’s not Luo Quan, Lyon, or Carillian, but it’s the current president.

And this sentence is one of the president's golden sayings.

Luo Quan's movements are very expressive. I can't say that he imitated them very closely, I can only say that they are exactly the same.

No one expected Luo Quan to say such a thing, but in the United States, making fun of the president is not something that would be frowned upon by the world. Even many comedy variety shows will do similar things for the sake of program effectiveness.

It's just that Luo Quan, a foreigner, can be so authentic, which is really hilarious.

After the host laughed, he also added: "If you were the president, with the same words and the same behavior, your support rate would probably not be that low."

Luo Quan looked serious: "If I were the president, wouldn't all the salaries of all government employees have to be deducted?"

This is following what Carillian said, and it also has a double meaning.

I don’t know how many times I remembered the laughter. The host was very determined and almost broke his guard.

The barrage in the live broadcast room was also overwhelming with "lol".

In Chinese barrage culture, 23333 means laughing, while overseas it means lol.

Now everyone has forgotten that this is actually an interview. Originally, the program team just wanted to make the atmosphere a little more relaxed, but unexpectedly, with a few words, the interview turned into a talk show.

"I used to think that you are a star who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, elegant yet friendly to the people, but this interview really allowed me to see another side of the goddess." After the host recovered, he sighed to Luo Quan .

"Actually, I'm always like this. Fans who often watch my live broadcasts probably know what I really look like."

The host nodded in agreement: "Yes, even though he is a genius, sometimes geniuses are no different from ordinary people.

And don’t think that geniuses and celebrities look so glamorous in front of the camera, but in fact, the efforts and hardships they put in in private are actually unimaginable by ordinary people. "

Luo Quan blinked: "I don't know about others, but I really haven't put in any hardship or effort.

I think the most difficult time is when I am thinking about what excuses I can use to refuse fans' urging me to release a new work. "

"Oh, maybe this is a genius. I admit that I was careless. It seems that ordinary people still can't understand the world of genius." The host pretended to lower his head, and everyone smiled.

"Getting back to the topic, Luo Quan, did you ever expect that the movie Forrest Gump would be so successful?

Please allow me to directly say that it is a success. Now, whether it is box office or word-of-mouth, it is simply unrivaled. This love was even more exaggerated when Titanic was released. "

When Luo Quan heard this question, he answered without hesitation: "Of course I thought of it, because it was born for this.

After a story like this came out, I couldn't find any reason for failure.

In fact, some of the things that appear in the movie are things that are gradually being lost in society today.

And judging from the current environment, Forrest Gump can indeed inspire countless people. "

"Regarding this, I have actually seen a lot of news before, saying that your movie will save the stock market and alleviate social conflicts.

Although Mi has been refuting this kind of statement, after the movie came out, it really achieved such an effect. What do you think now? "

“I still feel that you should not overly mythologize me or this movie.

Whether it is the stock market or the social environment, it is not the result of one person, but the product of the actions of countless people.

If you want to change, you can only do it from the bottom up and put all your efforts in one place.

Just like the history in Forrest Gump, it needs to be created by the masses. "

"Your ideas are indeed very different from our common thoughts, but you have made Forrest Gump so in line with our national conditions. This is really incredible."

Faced with this question, Luo Quan thought for a while and replied: "After all, human beings have the same pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty.

In my opinion, Forrest Gump is such a story.

It is a fairy tale for adults. You can call it fake or impossible, but this does not affect most people's desire to become Forrest Gump. "

“Yeah, who doesn’t want to live the American dream.

But I still have to thank Director Luo Quan for giving this illusory thing a clear definition and presenting it in front of everyone.

Perhaps as you said, society will not change because of one person.

But the last piece of weight that promotes change must be put down by you. "

After these words were spoken, applause broke out, and the barrage was full of words of approval.

This is an undeniable fact. The popularity of Forrest Gump has caused the stock market to recover.

No matter how modest Luo Quan is, the credit should actually go to her.

Of course, that includes Leon and Carillian.

After interviewing Luo Quan, the host started an in-depth conversation with the other two people.

The main thing is to let them talk about their self-analysis of the characters and talk about how they view the two characters of Forrest Gump and Jenny.

For professional actors, analyzing the psychology of characters is very important.

But Luo Quan's movies don't need it. She has written the character's psychology for the actors, and the actors can just act accordingly without adding their own understanding.

So the two people here are just repeating Luo Quan's words.

The interview lasted for an hour, and the number of viewers exceeded 10 million, breaking the record.
