Chapter 914: Chapter 912: Picture City Premiere
The global premiere of Picture City had finally arrived, and the entire crew was mobilized to vigorously promote the film.
The heat of Qiao Xiaren’s TV series “Demon Fla” had yet to subside when she once again welcod the arrival of the film Picture City.
Fans expressed their delight, no longer worried that they would have no dramas or movies to look forward to.
The movie secured connections with various major theaters, with a booking rate consistently above 40%. Many people’s personal spaces and Weibo began to be continuously bombarded with posts about the film.
There were positive reviews, anticipation, and of course, doubts.
This movie was clearly designed to promote Qiao Xiaren and Xie Yurou, two popular actresses, with the rest of the cast being relatively prominent movie stars.
Qiao Xiaren had repeatedly caused a sensation with her TV dramas, and her last supporting role in “Who Rules The World” was very impressive. It remains to be seen whether she can carry the main plot this ti and continue her past glory and brilliance.
“Who Rules The World” ultimately grossed 3.7 billion at the box office, refreshing the record for dostic films.
It made sense that it broke records since the director was the famous Qin Hao and the actors were indeed very talented.
But Picture City is different—the director is the erging Jiang, and it’s Huayi’s first film directed by a newcor set to compete with the Lan Family dia.
So although the film’s performance is worth looking forward to, it’s not sothing one can guarantee too confidently.
With so many talented actors joining and a rather good storyline, it shouldn’t end up a total flop.
This is Qiao Xiaren’s first lead role in a film, so naturally, one must buy tickets to support her at the theater. At Liwan Plaza Cinema, there will also be promotional activities with Qiao Xiaren’s personal appearance.
The movie tickets were selling incredibly well, and Director Jiang fully appreciated the benefits of having a popular actress in the crew. Just for Qiao Xiaren and Xie Yurou’s good looks, many passersby fans bought tickets to experience the movie.
Although Jiang was an up-and-coming director, not as experienced as the renowned directors, the investnt was so substantial that post-production special effects and visuals were extrely well-crafted.
Exquisitely beautiful visuals and highly skilled actors also left a great impression on the Western market. Reportedly, the New York Tis had begun to cover the premiere, showcasing the traditional charm and culture of S Country to foreigners, allowing them to feel the cultural depth of thousands of years.
Buzz was generated even before the release, all thanks to this montum.
The trailer was out first.
The online trailer was one that featured dramatic soap opera dialogues, with various sisterly face-offs and intricate grudges. As soon as it opened, red walls and green tiles appeared—a scene of concubines vying for favor used a sowhat sentintal tone and a backdrop of weighty music.
As the doors opened, the picture was blurred, as if traveling through ti, transporting viewers into the bloodstained yet beautiful Forbidden City.
With a sense of sad and heavy historical atmosphere, Qiao Xiaren appeared on screen wearing the Empress’s headdress, her gaze deep and distant.
Behind her stood a man, silently watching her.
A voiceover from a very authoritative male voice said, “The world pales in comparison to this beloved subject. Star actress Qiao Xiaren, together with popular diva Xie Yurou, and the impassioned Qin Su, weave a romantic love story beneath the veil of bloodshed.”
The cara slowly moved to show the Emperor lying on his sickbed.
Early in the late spring, kites flew outside the red walls.
On the moat, lanterns fluttered, bearing the unspoken thoughts of young maidens from outside the city walls towards the heart of the Palace.
