Question: Half a month in advance to suddenly determine the schedule, is it a bad film reservation?
This is not commentable, after all, there is a movie like "Young You", which is set to be on the movie, and it is also well received.
However, if a "big production" commercial film is set half a month in advance, even the publicity may not be too late.
This "Lingyue Storm" is - six years of preparation, filming to the release of three years, the first nine years are not urgent, and finally a foot in the door but only give yourself half a month, but also cruel enough to yourself.
The soft science fiction suspense film "Soul Hunting" next door is also Taiwan's team, which is set nearly 40 days in advance. The first wave of extremely small-scale film viewing has long been carried out to create word-of-mouth, and this weekend it will be screened to create momentum. The publicity of the major media is also prioritized, orderly and highly visible.
In contrast, "The Storm" didn't even have time to set up a humanoid sign in the theater.
In fact, "The Storm" is not only the first Taiwanese film to be released in the mainland in 2021, but even the first Taiwanese film to be released in the mainland after the epidemic (the same day's "Soul Hunting", just a Taiwanese team, essentially a mainland movie).
Both production companies are from Taiwan.
It entered the mainland market as an imported film.
This "Lingyu Storm" is a "gift" dedicated to his wife by the spoiled wife crazy demon Jay Chou, because the heroine is Zhou Taikunling.
And will Zhou Dong appear in "The Storm"? The stills that flow out have long said it all.
So, is Tuohai back?
The film is also a project that has been dragging on for a long time, and it took six years to prepare, and the launch ceremony was held in Taipei as early as January 2018 (it has been three years since then).
It can be seen that at that time, there were three producers: tianpeng group, a mainland cultural enterprise headquartered in Shenzhen, the creative film created by Zhou Dong's good brother Liu Qihong and other directors ("Tiantai" was also filmed by this one), and the quantitative energy cultural creation of the knife Peng Yukang (a former member of 5566).
The director of this film, Chen Yixian, is a famous MV director, with a cool and avant-garde style, and has cooperated with many big-name singers, and in 2009, the Taiwanese film "Love to the End" that was released in the mainland, there was Chen Yixian among the four directors.
Chen Yixian was not only the youngest car advertising director in Taiwan, but also the first Chinese director to be enabled by BMW, he was also a champion driver himself, once won the Asian Formula Renault 2013 Master Division Champion and Annual Champion (this is very cattle), he also set up a team, Ruan Jingtian was once his driver.
Chen Yixian was on the filming scene.

The three protagonists, Fan Yichen, Kun Ling, and Cao Youning.
Other actors include Ko Yingxuan, Ke Youlun, and the knife-assisted entertainer Ah Ken.
The character of this movie is probably like this, Fan Yichen played li Yifei, the king of the gas car.
Although I can't bear to mention this mouth, but Fan Yichen is really similar to the experience of this past car king, after the big hit of "Cape Seven", he has been sinking and floating for ten years, the work is difficult to see, but the scandal with Tanaka Chie is getting more and more true.
"Past actor" played the king of the car, this casting, there is nothing wrong with it.
And Taiwan's new generation of young students Cao Youning, playing rookie driver Du Jack. Cao Youning's appearance, but the idol can be a drama, is indeed one of the more outstanding young male actors in Taiwan in recent years.
In 2020, Cao Youning also became a small box office student in Taiwan, he served as the male number one "Can You, You Just Like Me", with a proud box office of nearly 80 million, becoming the third place in the annual Taiwanese local film box office, the top two are "Lonely Taste" and "The Name Engraved in My Heart".
"Can you, you just happen to like me" is also a Taiwanese film with great potential to be introduced to the mainland.
In addition to the wife is the female number one, this "LingYue Fengyun", also known as the "Zhou Dong Circle of Friends", Zhou Dong's nemesis Liu Qihong, is not only one of the producers of this movie, but also plays an important role in Ma Zhi.
Liu Qihong is Jay Chou's best friend and career partner, and this universe knows it.
Wang Junkai was invited to make a cameo, and the producer, producer, and director made a big move to greet him. In fact, Jay Chou is Xiao Kai's idol.
Although Xiao Kai only made a cameo appearance in the film as a character named Young K, do not underestimate his equivalent, he should be one of the key elements of the film to be introduced to the mainland for release. Otherwise, those three main actors alone will not be able to sell on the mainland at all (sorry, cruel words, but this is reality).
What, you say that the hanging Zhou Director Supervision Has Appeal? Please, in 2016, Zhou Dongdang supervised the production of "Ten Thousand Kilometers of Agreement", he not only attended almost every promotion, but also made a cameo role, and the result was that the film was miserable at the box office in the mainland (and the quality of the film itself).
Another boss of "The Wind and the Clouds", the former 5566 knife (Peng Yukang), will also make a cameo appearance in the film. After he was not an artist, he also did a good job when the agent opened the company.
The artist Lin Weiheng (Ah Ken), a close friend of Zhou Dong, also performed in "The Wind and Clouds". And Zhou Dong made a cameo appearance in his 2020 directorial debut "Practice Love ING".
Ke Youlun plays team heir Xiao Shen.
Speaking of Ke Youlun, in addition to being a famous actor and singer, he also has two identities, one is the son of the Asian car king Ke Shouliang, so he came to play this movie, which is very convincing.
Ke Youlun's other identity is Jay Chou's disciple, and he became a musician with the help of Zhou Dong.
In June 2020, Zhou Dong's popular "Mojito" filmed the MV, and Ke Youlun went to Cuba to shoot together.
Ke Youlun registered his marriage in 2018 and held a wedding in Hong Kong in March 2019.
It is said that "The Wind and Clouds" has dragged on for several years, because Ke Youlun has completed the trilogy of registered weddings and daughters in the past three years, and the movie is late.
In August 2020, Ke Youlun became a father.
Jiang Bingbing, the producer of "The Wind and the Clouds", was once Wu Zongxian's agent, and later assisted Jay Chou in making films with Liu Qihong.
Another producer, Gong Shangyi, was once an actor and later became the person in charge of the amount of energy culture and creativity of the knife.
Playing Ke Youlun's father in "The Storm" is Taiwanese actor Lin Qingtai, who was originally a priest who became famous as the male protagonist Mona Nudao in "Sidekbar". Lin Qingtai has a rough appearance and temperament, which belongs to the relatively rare type of actor in Taiwan, and has always had film and television works come to him to invite him to perform.
Taiwanese actor Ko Ying-hsien plays the protagonist's nemesis, the technically strong racing driver Song Jie.
Xu Huixin, who married and retired in 2013, is said to also perform in "The Storm". This is not difficult to understand, Xu Huixin once had the same company as Liu Qihong, and later went to the company of the knife, so it was also her own family. If she really appears, she will still let many people "Ye Qinghui", after all, she almost had a little luck or persistence, and she could become a diva-level figure.
The knife also pulled in 5566 teammate Sun Xiezhi to play the team mechanic. 5566 released a new song "We" on New Year's Day 2021.
Chen Xinjian, a big man who plays an important role in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, will make a cameo appearance as a brain surgeon, and it is also quite a face-saving thing to be able to move him.
Li Yuxi, the male number two of "My Girlhood", will also have a cameo role.
Ouyang Nana's father, Ouyang Nana, who has not acted for many years, will play the role of the chairman of the tandem tournament, of course, but it is only said that after all, his identity is relatively special.
The reason why this movie dragged on for so long is most likely that it is its real "protagonist", that is, the shooting and special effects of the car, which took a long time to complete.
A week before its release, "The Storm" released the same official poster on both sides of the strait, and also announced that the film would be released in Taiwan on January 16, a day later than the mainland. This speed is really overtaking in curves! Because it is only ten days away from the official release.
The slogan of the mainland version is "Extreme Speed".
The slogan of the Taiwanese version is "When the throttle is fully open, it will catch up with you."
The trailer ends with Jay Chou and Wang Junkai, even though they are only cameos.
Is Tuohai back? No, Zhou Dong plays a person named Jie Xiuren.
The young K (played by Wang Junkai), who is not afraid of tigers, said to Jie Xiuren: Your undefeated record is up to today!
The old seniors obviously do not accept defeat, then, come on, walk and see!
