Chapter 396 Is this a movie you can watch without spending money? (Ask for monthly ticket)
Before "Cast Away", Doushou actually did online distribution on major online platforms.
However, in the current domestic film industry, films that can be released in theaters will not be released online. Therefore, most of the previously released films were canceled by theaters.
"Desert Island" is different.
Li Youzhi is now popular as an artist and has a gimmick as a director, and the film "Desert Island" itself is a continuation of the "Longing for Life" and "Single on Desert Island" series of videos.
For Douishou, this film has the right time, place, and people, so the publicity resources for the film this time are full!
Thanks to the vigorous promotion that started a week in advance, the number of online viewers of "Cast Away" exceeded one million within 20 minutes of its premiere!
It is different from those would-be directors from Beijing Film Academy.
When watching a movie, the audience won't pay attention to camera techniques or narrative techniques, as long as the pictures are comfortable to watch.
What they care more about is just whether the plot is interesting and whether the actors' performances are good enough.
At this level, how does "Cast Away" do?
The comment section on the play page says it all!
As the protagonist Li Zhi suffered an air crash and was stranded on a deserted island, he saw this social elite who could mobilize dozens or hundreds of people to transport express delivery with a wave of his hand. At this time, he was helplessly shouting on the beach and was so thirsty that he could not even open a coconut. …
Compared with the first scene, this huge contrast in plot and character status has already caused a stir in the comment area!
"Have you seen it, brothers? What's the use of being handsome, and what's the use of having a good job? Once you're on a deserted island, all of this will be just a cloud!"
"I would like to ask you a question above. If you are not handsome and have a bad job, what will you do if you end up on a deserted island?"
"Isn't that simple? When encountering this situation, the first thing you must do is to find a water source! Wash yourself clean, and then find a cool place to lie down. This can effectively prevent the body from stinking!"
"Blank!"
For a movie, the best lens language is to allow the audience to immerse themselves in it.
Apparently, with twenty minutes into the movie's first act, Cast Away has done just that!
In the discussion among netizens, the plot of the story continues;
All the electronic equipment on his body had been scrapped, and he had no way to call for help. After confirming that he was the only living person on the island, Li Zhi began his survival operation.
He repackaged the rubber boat that floated with him and attempted to paddle out of the island. However, the oncoming huge waves knocked him over mercilessly, and when he could not escape, his calf was cut open by the underwater rocks.
Unwilling to give in, he staggered to the top of the island. The moment he overlooked the vast and endless sea, he despaired.
There were no similar people around and there was no sign of rescue. There were only express packages that kept being washed up by the sea... and the body of a crew member.
After burying the pilot, he finally accepted the reality. Along the coast, he collected the couriers one by one - he knew that these couriers would be the key to his survival on the island.
The interesting thing about fate is that it will not completely block your hopes, nor will it completely satisfy your extravagant desires.
There are all kinds of things that come out of the blind express box, including the keys to a sports car, real estate transfer documents, eyebrow pencils worth more than 900 grams, priceless dresses, and even skates and volleyballs... These are given in a civilized society. Most of the things that have various meanings and values become useless when placed on a desert island.
Looking at the pile of things that were completely useless in changing the status quo, Li Zhi silently put away the express mail with wings painted on the last box.
On an uninhabited island, what he needs now is fresh water, fire, and the hope of living.
After taking stock of all his belongings, he began to study the question of how to survive;
The first was fresh water. After trial and error, he successfully used skates and stones to make holes in coconuts, solving the thirst problem.
Next came food. After removing the gauze on his dress, he successfully caught crabs in the shallows.
However, fresh water and food were only the minimum standard of survival. After drinking coconut water and eating crabs, he discovered a more serious problem - all raw food on the desert island would cause diarrhea, causing his stomach, which was accustomed to fine grains, to suffer. .
He started trying to start a fire using sticks and coir.
However, drilling wood to make fire, which is an evolutionary milestone for humans, is not as simple as imagined.
What Suiren was able to do seven thousand years ago is unparalleled to modern people; he rubbed it with a wooden stick between his hands for a whole day, but he didn't even see any sparks, and he was even pricked by the wooden stick. palm.
Hunger, loneliness, fear, and irritability all surged up at this moment.
He kicked over the empty express box, grabbed the useless volleyball and threw it far away, yelled and cursed at the calm and ruthless sea - but all of this was in vain.
After calming down again, he saw the volleyball he had just thrown out.
The blood on the palm just left a bright red mark on the volleyball, which at first glance looked like an abstract face.
He picked up the volleyball, drew eyes, nose, and mouth on the bright red palm prints, and returned to the dead wood.
The process of drilling wood to make fire was still difficult, but looking at the volleyball face that transformed from abstract to concrete, he was no longer anxious.
Different from the first part of the film, it seems that I can't wait to explain the protagonist's life situation clearly in two minutes at a fast pace. After the movie enters the second part, the shots start to become more delicate.
Li Zhi's entire survival process was displayed in detail!
Shake hands play page.
Looking at Li Youzhi, who showed humor in a desperate situation, joking with volleyballs and rubbing the tinder with a wooden stick, the comment area that had been busy just now fell silent.
Until in the picture, a wisp of green smoke came from the simple fire-making tool, and finally a ball of orange-red flame was released. I saw Li Youzhi dancing excitedly around a strong bonfire in the night, and even the second grader's performance started a fire. God, the silence in the comment area has finally been broken!
"Ma Dan, when I saw the bonfire rising, my eyes were a little wet for some reason."
"It's so exciting. As expected, the worship of fire is engraved in human DNA!"
"I was waiting for the car to come in when I had nothing to do, but before I knew it, the car had already driven away... But I don't regret missing the car. Although I only watched half of it, I felt so much. There are many details in the movie. , all full of irony...just like those Tesla card keys in the express delivery.
In a civilized society, this pair of keys flaunts how to be advanced. But on a desert island, he couldn't even open a coconut, so he was thrown into the sea in disgust by the protagonist. We have enough food and clothing, but we still keep buying this and that. Do we really need it? "
"I agree with the person above. As a veteran musician, I watched this movie because I was following my previous series "Longing" and "Double Down". I originally wanted to see him survive in the wilderness in the movie. But halfway through the movie, I... It gave me so many extra touches and surprises.
Especially the part where after the bonfire was lit, he threw the property transfer document he had taken out earlier into the fire as fuel. I thought he just wanted to make this film as a gimmick and to make an adventure-themed Internet drama. But the depth expressed in the film so far...has already surpassed most of the theatrical works! "
"Nima, is this a movie I can watch for free?!"
With the blazing bonfire in the picture, the comments on the play page of "Cast Away"... exploded!
Beep!
Received amazing points, 2015440 points!
dormitory.
Li Youzhi smiled faintly when he saw that the comment section had exploded just one hour after the premiere.
After you accepted the suggestion from a group of troll netizens that you should become a director, why did you choose the film "Cast Away"?
One-man shows are easy to control, and shooting costs are low.
The most important part is that when I was working on the "Longing for Life" series of videos, I saw the moments when a group of fun-loving people broke their guard. I felt that the core of this film perfectly fits the mental state of young people in today's society!
Seeing that the film was just over halfway through, netizens who were touched by the film began to praise it wildly. Then seeing that the number of online viewers had accumulated to more than 1.5 million... Li Youzhi touched up his hair that had not been dried, and was deeply moved. Take a deep breath.
Brother admitted that there was an element of gambling...but there was nothing I could do about it, the bet was right!
Brother Zhi... awesome!

…
Meanwhile, Shanghai and Disneyland.
Lou Zhiguang, who has suffered from severe insomnia for the past month and is obviously bald, is waiting in a long queue while carrying his wife's big bag and his daughter's small bag.
As a husband and father, my only use at Disney is waiting in line.
Lao Lou, who was already prepared for this realization, looked up at the sun and sighed quietly.
What a sin... He said he took me out to relax during the holidays, but he obviously asked me to come here to be a human camel and a queue waiter!
After removing the wind with his palm, Lou Zhiguang looked at the endless team in front of him, and finally his eyes fell on a young father in front of him.
Unlike Lou, who came to Disney for the first time, this young father is obviously more experienced. Not only did he bring a big-brimmed sun hat, he even brought a suitcase that he could sit on and rest on.
More importantly... he also brought a tablet with a power bank and wireless network card.
Taking advantage of the height difference, Lou Zhiguang turned his attention to the tablet screen in the man's hand.
At this time, a bonfire was burning on the screen, and a familiar figure was singing and dancing around the bonfire.
"Hey? Friend, what are you looking at?"
Hearing Lou Zhiguang's inquiry, the young father in front of him turned around, looked at Lou Zhiguang for a moment and confirmed that he was a queue peg with the same destiny, and was happy.
"Would you like to watch a new film made by an actor I have followed for a long time?"
Faced with the invitation, Lou Zhiguang was also happy.
"I know about this film. When Li Youzhi was making this film, he approached me for investment."
"Hey, who are you?"
"The brand operations officer of DaMi Technology Intelligent Voice. I was the one who signed the endorsement deal between this guy and our DaMi Technology."
"Ouch..."
After learning Lou Zhiguang's identity, the young father quickly stood up.
"Good guy, I can't believe that I don't know how much money I have when I come to Shanghai, and I can meet corporate executives while queuing up! It's a pleasure to meet you, come and watch it together."
Lou Zhiguang approached the polite young father with a smile and nodded.
The plot of "Cast Away" has now entered the second half.
After overcoming basic survival difficulties, the protagonist Li Zhi began a long survival career;
Based on the location and time of the plane crash, the search area for rescuers to find him was a full 500,000 square kilometers, equivalent to the area of the province of SC - this was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
As the days passed, the cave where Li Zhi lived was covered with traces of his life.
In his lonely survival life, there are two things that always accompany him: the photo of his girlfriend, and the volleyball he named "Double Happiness".
The girlfriend in the photo is his spiritual support to survive.
And the volleyball that he thought was the most useless at the beginning has now become his friend who shares the same joys and sorrows.
Under the scorching sunshine, watching Li Zhi on the screen chattering about the double happiness of volleyball, he found enough courage for himself, and then used his skates to pull out the bad tooth. He fainted from the pain. Lou Zhiguang and the man who had just The new friends he met burst into laughter.
"This film... was quite interesting to shoot."
"Hahaha, all of Xiaozhi's works are pretty good. By the way, Brother Lou, I see there are a lot of Shunfeng Express implants in this movie. You just said that Xiaozhi asked you to invest in this movie. Where is your rice implant?”
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Lou Zhiguang rubbed his numb waist and smiled at the young father.
"I didn't agree to him. He was a bit controversial because of the film festival, so I didn't agree to his implant plan. But this Double Happiness volleyball implant is quite interesting. I don't know that Double Happiness is a veteran. How much implantation fee did the domestic brand give him?"
"oh……"
Hearing what Lou Zhiguang said, the young father stroked the brim of his sunhat and suddenly hissed.
"Brother Lou, you just said that you are in charge of the smart voice AI of DaMi Technology, right?"
"Ang...what's wrong?"
Not sure why this new friend suddenly asked this, Lou Zhiguang blinked.
Noticing his confusion, the young father grinned.
"Brother Lou, my job is to make products. Although I don't know much about advertising and marketing, let's just say... It seems suitable to replace this volleyball with your company's AI voice device?"
ah……
Hearing the unintentional words of his new friend next to him, the smile on Lou Zhiguang's face suddenly froze.
The scorching sun in the sky in May seemed to suddenly lose its heat at this moment.
I don't know why, but a rather bad premonition arose spontaneously from the bottom of Lou Zhiguang's heart.
A chilly feeling slowly rose from the soles of his feet and rushed directly to his brain!
With just one move, he snatched the tablet from the young father's hand.
He shivered hard when he saw that the number of viewers on the playback page had climbed to 2 million.
Don't be popular, this movie... must not be popular!
PS: Damn, not only did you not comfort me, you also laughed at me! You foster fathers have no heart! Okay, then the idiot will share today’s coding posture: \\_or2
