v2 Chapter 242： The gorgeous transformation of musicals

Returning to the high-end business suite he stayed in, Alan didn't take a break like Cunites did. Instead, he turned on the computer equipped in the room, logged in to the Explosive Demons section of the film and television website, and entered the chat room.

This small chat room has expanded from dozens of people to hundreds of people.

"The premiere in New York should be over."

As soon as he logged in, Allen saw the Duke of Destruction speaking, "Did anyone go to watch "Chicago"?"

"I went." Allen left a message.

"Is the movie good?"

"Is it boring?"

"Songs and dances are the most annoying!"

"Yeah, I don't understand why Duke made such a film."

In just ten seconds, a lot of complaints came out below, and Allen thought about the movie he wanted to watch, which was completely different from the inherent musical impression.

He quickly tapped the keyboard with both hands. "In fact, we are all affected by inherent concepts. This is not a musical in the 1960s and 1970s. The film is full of those movie elements that we like and Duke is good at, except for the absence of fighting and explosions. For example, gorgeous visual images, fast-paced short-shot switching, let the audience visit the scene from the first perspective, and beauties▲, a large number of beautiful and **** beauties, they dance the most attractive dance...especially one of them In prison tango, when you see Catherine Zeta Jones flicking her thigh, you will definitely burst into blood."

Allen’s was just sent out, and Rose Mountain suddenly flashed out, "I can prove that I just attended the premiere! Not only are there beauties, but the film is very happy, the singing and dancing scenes are wild and wild, all wearing the shortest dance clothes Sexy beauty, Zeta Jones appointed by Duke is absolutely beautiful."

Nothing can wake up the beasts on the Internet more than beauty.

"It seems I should go and see..."

"Hmm... I'm now considering whether to change my mind."

Allen took advantage of this time to post another one. "The singing and dancing are **** and exciting, and the film is full of black humor. I watched it and laughed a dozen times at a time. It was very interesting."

Another account called Velma jumped out, "I also watched the premiere, I love Velma to death. Zeta Jones is beautiful, singing and dancing is also great, this is not a song and dance film!"

"So I want to go and see it." The Duke of Destruction was obviously moved. "I ask if there are still tickets for the Midnight Show?"

Rose Hill then reminded him, "This film does not have a midnight scene, and it will not be officially released until daytime tomorrow."

"I just called and asked about it." The soldier rescued Ryan, apparently having been diving, and at this time he appeared. "The three theaters in my small town do not show "Chicago", so I am mad!"

"My house is also..."

Said an id named Jack. "After I heard Rose Hill's words, I quickly booked the tickets by phone. I was in Chicago, listening to the sound of the theater, the tickets seemed very tight."

"Isn't it so popular?"

"It deserves to be a film co-authored by Duke and Tom Cruise!"

Seeing that more and more people in the chat room wanted to buy tickets as soon as possible, Velma and Rose Hill, controlled by Pani Kellys’s two assistants, withdrew from the chat room. Pani Kellys stood in front of the computer, thinking. Look like. Obviously the situation just now has given her some touches.

"It seems... as if we didn't do anything," she turned to look at Duke who was chatting with Tina Fei. "It incited many people to buy tickets."

"Pani, you should have heard about it a long time ago. This is the most widely used Internet among young people." Duke turned his head and looked at his own public relations. Since he is not an expert himself, he can only say something about popular products. "The Internet can exchange information freely, and the timeliness is unmatched by traditional media, and those who use the Internet tend to be more blind obedience."

After all, Pani Kellys is a media public relations expert, and he immediately thought of some key points, "That is to say, if we make an article on the Internet. We can affect a large number of Internet users, and they will become potential customers of the film?"

She looked at Duke strangely, "So, you want me to find someone to help you build a...personal website?"

"I just want to have channels where I can speak alone in addition to traditional media."

Hearing Duke’s words, Penny Kelly nodded and continued, “According to the survey results that you have gotten, the Internet users in North America are mainly young people and students. These people cannot be regarded as the real "Chicago". Potential audience..."

"So, I just let you enter the film and television section about me." Duke took the water that Tina Fei handed him and Kellys separately, took a sip, and said, "Still the most clicked website on the Internet. Post some related news."

"We have reached an agreement with them." Penny Kelly looked at the time, "It should be on the front page of their website."

She walked to the computer and whispered a few words to the assistant. The assistant immediately logged in to a website. Duke and Tina Fei also walked over, but when he saw the name of the website the assistant logged in, suddenly I have the urge to shoot myself to death.

This website with advertisements and news related to "Chicago" on the homepage, which is fairly prominent, is called ‘yahoo’!

For more than 20 years, those things that have nothing to do with movies are really almost forgotten!

With a feeling from the bottom of my heart, Duke returned to normal. He used to be just the most ordinary netizen apart from busy work. It would be a **** for anyone to check Yahoo's specific information and leave a deep impression. .

"Write down this website." Duke turned his head and whispered to Tina Fei, "Go back and check its basic information."

It seems that the boss is surnamed Yang or Yuan? Duke shook his head, and looked back to see if the other party was listed, what's the trend of the listing, maybe another stock's name can be added to the investment list.

Throwing these things behind his head for the time being, Duke stood in front of the computer and looked at a new review report on "Chicago" on the Yahoo homepage. It was clear that the era of everyone being a film critic was about to begin.

However, this review report is different from the once-free internet propaganda, and it also has the characteristics of traditional media.

"The movie version of the famous Broadway musical "Chicago" and its debut in New York this year, the characters in the film are all lively..."

This report lists several highlights of the film-the adaptation of the song, the original music, the wonderful dance, the wonderful dance and so on.

After Duke saw it, he felt very ordinary, this era. Even the website itself has not grasped the focus of online advertising.

Although he is also a layman, he has always seen some in his previous life. This kind of advertising commentary report must grasp how beautiful the beauties in the film are and how **** the smooth thighs swinging in the group dance scene are...

However, this online promotion is not only a temporary move before the release, but also an experiment. The main audience group of "Chicago" itself is not the group that now constitutes netizens.

Nowadays, the Internet has not received the attention of Hollywood, and even traditional media groups have few computer networks in their eyes.

Because "Chicago" did not have a midnight show, after talking to Penny Kellys about building a personal website, Duke returned to his Upper East Side home to rest.

The night of Thursday faded away, and the sun on Friday illuminated the sky of the Big Apple. Richard Thomas, who has retired, returned from a walk in a park on Long Island and walked to his own house. Take out today's "New York Times" from the letter box, walk through the flat lawn, enter the room, fill yourself with a pot of hot coffee, then sit by the sunny window and read the newspaper.

He is a veteran Broadway drama fan and has heard that the movie version of "Chicago" will be released today, especially the entertainment version. Ready to read the film reviews of the film, only when he turns to a familiar column. It is full of voices criticizing "Star Trek: First Strike" and praising "The English Patient". The premiere of "Chicago" last night seems to have been ignored again?

Richard Thomas shook his head and looked at other places on the entertainment page. He didn't understand the hypocriticalness of these film critics. Can they really block the young director? On the front page of The New York Times, there are still reports about the film.

""Chicago". A victory for a Hollywood genre!"

Seeing the signature under the title, Richard Thomas came interested. This is a commentary by the famous drama critic Linda Whitley.

"The story of the film is similar to the musical version as a whole, but it was repackaged by director Duke Rosenberg with modern film techniques. Although the theme is the core of fame, fortune and desire that Hollywood movies repeatedly resell. But "Chicago" It is a song and dance film, but it is not a typical song and dance film. It embodies the fusion, transformation and innovation of different film genres in historical changes in a different image style!

"Duke Rosenberg’s musical and dance films have obviously undergone his re-improvement. The characteristics of film noir are deeply immersed in them. His mixing and processing of the two major genres of musical and dance films and film noir has made "Chicago "In the fragrant beauty, various charms are revealed. The perfect combination of grand singing and dancing performances and low-key gloomy black style highlights the multiple characteristics of the film."

"With "Chicago", what the audience can get is not deep thinking, but an exquisite, diverse and complex viewing experience, which embodies Duke Rosenberg’s consistently good quality and tradition-production Sophisticated, adaptable to the times, and constantly innovate!"

"It can be said that "Chicago" is a magnificent transformation of a musical. The transition, integration, and interaction between the musical scene and the real scene is stronger than that of the musical version, and it breaks through the rigid method of simple insertion of the traditional musical song and dance paragraph. "

"Duke Rosenberg made great use of the strong drama and deduction of musicals, fully serving the theme of satire, exposing the sensuality, and the inverted state of black and white; at the same time, the elements of film noir are almost perfectly injected into the film. In various scenes."

"Also, the film is carefully conceived in terms of lighting and tone, which makes the film exude a gloomy and **** taste apart from wildness and cigarettes!"

Seeing this, Richard Thomas closed the newspaper, determined that he originally planned to go to the movie, and planned to go directly to the theater to buy tickets to watch after lunch. (To be continued...)
