With the full recovery of the film market and the eye-catching box office results of the Eleventh National Day file, many movies have begun to be released one after another.
For example, Zhang Yimou's "One Second", Lin Chaoxian's "Emergency Rescue", Guo Jingming's "Qingya Collection" and the highly anticipated "Detective Chinatown 3".
It can be predicted that the next film market will still be fiercely competitive.
Recently, another movie is scheduled for December 4, leading the New Year slot in advance.
"Red Fox Scholar"
The original name of the film was "Spring River Flower Moon Night", because the name is too literary, it is difficult for everyone to understand the story of the film through the name.
So the producer directly let the two protagonists "in the same frame" and took a simple and clear name "Red Fox Shusheng".
"Red Fox Scholar" was first scheduled in August this year, due to the epidemic situation, it was changed to November, and on October 13, the film was officially announced to be scheduled for December 4.
As a movie that leads the New Year file, what are the highlights of "Red Fox Student"?
Let's look at the main creative lineup first.
The producer is Jiang Zhiqiang, who is praised by the Wall Street Journal as "Asia's most successful filmmaker", and works such as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero, Ten Faces Ambush, and Cold War 2 are all from him.
The fantasy film Series "To Catch a Demon" was a great success, with a cumulative box office of 4.7 billion.
This shot is another fantasy movie, and everyone said that they are looking forward to it.
"To Catch a Demon"
There are also screenwriters of "Painted Skin" and "Manslaughter", and art directors of "2046" and "Thief of Years".
This time the film adopts two male protagonists, who are "current boyfriends" Li Xian and Chen Linong.
Li is now very familiar to everyone, last year with the TV series "Dear, Dear" in the Korean business circle countless fans, acting skills can also be remarkable.
In the film, he plays the fox demon Bai Thirteen.
In many literary and film and television works, fox demons are mainly women, and even male fox demons are full of a touch of beauty, such as Li Dongxu, who played the nine-tailed fox in the recently popular Korean drama "The Legend of the Nine-tailed Fox".
The fox demon played by Li Xian is a little different.
The original form is a small fox with rough hair, thin and weak hair.
When he appeared on the scene, he was dressed in rags and disheveled, although he would occasionally use a cucumber to apply an eye mask, but it still gave people the feeling of a rough man, and there was no handsomeness and elegance of a fox demon.
No wonder netizens ridiculed that Li Xian's fox essence is a bit subversive, and the fox man who has been seen for a long time is a big man.
Character is also pure kindness.
Tell the other person that don't be afraid that I'm not a bad person.
When the other party is in a puzzle, whisper to the master, she will not treat my mussel people well.
Chen Linong made his debut in the talent show "Idol Trainee", which was also the first film he starred in, in which he played the role of Shusheng Wang Zijin.
He is very consistent with the character's personality, dressed simply, carrying a bamboo basket, quite a bit of "Ning Caichen" feeling.
In addition, the trailer also exposed the ghost of the examination hall played by Wang Yaoqing, and the frog spirit played by Li Dazui.
In particular, the lotus spirit played by Hani Kezi, in the trailer, a blue dress danced in the air, which was very stunning.
The only concern is the director of the film, which is co-directed by Song Haolin and Yirich.
Both directors are new faces, Yirich is mainly an actor, and the films directed by Song Haolin are not highly rated, "Summer of Pigs and Wolves" 6.2, "Beloved Inhuman" 6.3.
Look at the film story again.
The film tells the story of the scholar Prince Jin, who rushed to Beijing, and met the little fox demon Bai Thirteen.
The reason why one person and one demon met was because Prince Jin was a "mussel man" of Bai Thirteen, and he had a Yuan Soul Dan that could make Bai Thirteen immortal.
So Bai Thirteen, with the help of his master, formulated a meticulous plan to "deceive the true heart".
First of all, he rescued the prince from the mouth of the giant frog essence, and then set up the "beauty plan" of the lotus essence.
The simple and generous prince Jin was deceived into being dizzy, trapped in danger without knowing it, and even desperate to save Bai Thirteen.
In the process of getting along, one person and one fox have gradually changed from "superficial friends" to "friends of life and death".
Judging from the trailer released, the focus of the film is on the friendship established by the two protagonists going through the ordeal together.
Although not of the same kind, the two protagonists have similarities and are optimistic and positive about life. One wants to pass the exam, and the other wants to be a good fox fairy.
And it was this optimism and kindness that invisibly touched Bai Thirteen and made him waver between Cheng Xian and friendship.
The story of "Red Fox Student" is actually very simple, and there is not much suspense left in the trailer.
The choice of taking Dan or not is actually not difficult to guess, just like Nie Xiaoqian met Ning Caichen, preferring to die rather than hurt.
As a fantasy film, the graphics and special effects are undoubtedly the biggest attractions of the film.
After all, it is Jiang Zhiqiang, who has produced the "To Catch the Demon" series, and his strength cannot be underestimated, and this time he has invited the special effects companies of "Harry Potter" and "Walking with God" to create the most magnificent oriental fantasy world.
This can be seen from the concept poster and trailer screen, the scene is grand, the special effects are realistic.
The lofty loft and the bustling ten miles of the red light.
The fantasy picture of the fox disciple CaiDan.
A beautiful woman floating in the air.
A white peacock dragging a long tail through the air.
A fierce ghost wandering in the examination room.
There is also another world of paper.
As netizens commented, the film is full of the visual sense of "Ghost of a Woman" and "Catch a Demon".
Overall, the film's fantasy effects are very realistic, the picture is also very beautiful, and a random screenshot is a wallpaper.
As for whether it can create the glory of "To Catch a Demon" and become a dark horse, the release of the film is self-evident.
