Chapter 563 Screaming Audience

Shrill sirens filled the night sky, and more than two hundred police officers surrounded a small hotel. Everyone was armed with live ammunition, and even the New York SWAT police came.

But even with such a lineup, everyone's faces still looked worried, as if there was a large number of tough gangsters in the police station waiting for them to deal with.

The reason why everyone was so nervous was because gunshots were heard from the top floor of the hotel, where an extremely dangerous and perverted criminal was being held.

The two police officers, a man and a woman who were responsible for delivering food to the criminal, had lost contact. The police sergeant who discovered this situation immediately called for help, and then rushed into the top floor with a dozen police officers.

On the floor on the top floor of the hotel, an unrecognizable female police officer was lying on the ground, seemingly lifeless.

But everyone's eyes were pointed forward above their heads, and emotions such as fear, shock, and horror alternated back and forth on their faces.

The camera gradually rotates, and a scene looks like an angel flying high in the sky, or like a "sculpture" of Jesus' crucifixion hanging on the ceiling.

The main material of the sculpture is a male police officer whose abdomen was cut open. Even the most ruthless tyrant would not be able to help but feel pity after seeing his tragic death.

Such a visually shocking scene made many women in the theater scream in fear. Even the men shrank their pupils and shouted: Oh god!

The film critics at the premiere were not much better. They have always been discriminatory towards horror films, so they rarely watch them, and their resistance to such scenes has not yet been developed to the point of indifference.

But after the shock, some of them felt some real meaning behind this "painting".

This is probably a true portrayal of Dr. Hanni's inner world. She calls herself a god and can manipulate everything at will and create whatever she wants.

However, her aesthetics are probably not on the same level as ordinary people, and her interpretation of shock is also quite different.

The shocking scene did not last long. Now back to the plot, where is Dr. Hannie going?

There are only three people in the cell on the top floor. Now there are only two corpses left. Where is the big living person?

Just when everyone was confused, the female police officer who had fallen to the ground and was considered dead coughed twice.

When the police sergeant leading the team saw that her colleague was still alive, she immediately arranged for a doctor to put her on a ventilator and hurriedly sent her to an ambulance outside the hotel.

The rest of the people sealed off and searched the entire hotel, and they must not let Dr. Hanni, who was hiding in the dark, escape.

At this point in the plot, some fans have basically guessed that the female police officer is probably Dr. Hanni pretending to be.

After the missing female police officer had her face peeled off by Dr. Hanni and put it on her face, she was thrown to the top of the elevator. It took a lot of trouble for the police to find her.

By the time everyone came to their senses, Dr. Hannie had already escaped.

This result can be said to be expected and reasonable. Many people have vaguely guessed it, but many viewers did not expect such a plot at all.

After the plot on Dr. Hannie's side ended, the camera came to Starling's side.

As mentioned before, Dr. Hanney gave the congressmen wrong information about Buffalo Bill, and everyone went to the wrong address to arrest him.

Only Starling analyzed the real address of Buffalo Bill through Dr. Hannie's prompts, and this was also a gift from Dr. Hannie to Starling in return for answering her own question.

The following plot is similar to most positive movies. The brave Starling bravely fights Buffalo Bill and kills him in the dark. Justice once again defeats evil.

However, this victory was obtained from another evil.

The plot is not vulgar, and there is no twist. It is obviously inappropriate for evil to defeat justice.

On the other hand, the atmosphere of this battle in the dark is quite brilliant, which is absolutely heart-pounding and exciting.

The end of the film is in an unknown place.

Dr. Hannie talked to Starling, who had been promoted, on the phone and told her that he was going to have dinner with an old friend tonight.

The phone was hung up, and the camera showed a nervous-looking man in the distance, who was the prison warden who had previously detained and tortured Dr. Hanni.

Dr. Hanni followed up at a leisurely pace, and the camera gradually zoomed out until the list of main creators began to scroll.

"Snap, snap, snap!"

In the premiere hall, all the film critics unanimously applauded "The Silence of the Lambs".

This is the first time most of them have applauded sincerely for a horror movie. There is no doubt that both the actors' acting skills and the tense and suspenseful plot have conquered their critical hearts.

It may be an exaggeration to say that it is the scariest horror film in Hollywood history, but it will definitely be the most exciting horror film in the history of Oscar-winning movies.

The director has said before that this movie will be her Oscar-winning film.

To be fair, this movie would have been an excellent candidate for the Academy Award in any previous Oscar ceremony.

But I'm afraid it won't work this year, because "Titanic" is too good. Although "The Silence of the Lambs" has an excellent plot and some hidden depths, in terms of big scenes and big emotions, it is still inferior to "Titanic". 》Quite a few.

Of course, this is only based on the performance and layout of the movie. If we analyze the acting skills of the actors, these film critics are willing to swear by their careers that "The Silence of the Lambs" definitely contributed one of the most wonderful performances in recent decades, which is enough. The kind that can be compared with the best Oscar-winning actresses in film history!

After the film ended, Luo Quan sent congratulations to many actors and directors backstage, and also tried to get close to him.

Judging from this movie, Luo Quan has already begun to gain momentum in the film and television industry. It will definitely be beneficial to him to establish a good relationship early. Carillian is an example.

Although Luo Quan is not very familiar with most of the Ming people, it is a favor not to hit the smiling person, and it is a favor for people to come here to support him. Regardless of whether there is a chance to cooperate in the future, at least for now, he still has to say: there will definitely be a chance.

After dealing with everyone, it was already half past one in the morning. At this time, the streets of New York were not as busy as they were during the day, but because it was the city center, there were still many people to see.

Luo Quan and Leon got into the car sent by their father and returned home.

On the Internet, the ratings for "The Silence of the Lambs" have been released.

On the Rotten Tomatoes website, the film’s Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating is 97%, with 3,000 ratings!

If this score is converted to Douban, it would be a score of 9.0 or above, which is better than 99% of horror films and can be included in the best film rankings.

Even though it’s late at night, “Silence of the Lambs” is still trending on Twitter.

Fans expressed their excitement after watching the movie in words and videos:

"Luo Quan is definitely a genius in making horror films! "Resident Evil" and "Silence of the Lambs" are two completely different horrors. I have a hunch that this will be the first of horror movies in the new era!"

"Dr. Hannie played by Luo Quan is so charming. He knows that she is a vicious criminal, but he can't help but be fascinated by her. This villain is so heart-wrenching."

"The ten minutes in the prison are probably the most exciting scenes with female opponents in the history of film. Both Dr. Hanney and Officer Starling presented us with a feast of acting skills!"

“Hannie’s eyes are really breathtaking. She is not scary in the usual sense, but this kind of eyes can easily penetrate deep into your heart and completely penetrate all your weaknesses.

It was a feeling of powerlessness in the palm of her hand, as if seeing this look in her eyes could only be manipulated by her, just like the man in the movie who was driven to suicide by Dr. Hanni's words. "

“There’s nothing to say. Oscar-winning horror films will make life difficult for directors who make horror films in the future.

In the past, everyone said that the plot and acting skills of horror movies were not important, as long as they can scare people. Now that "Silence of the Lambs" has come out, if it is perfunctory, the feeling of humiliation after comparing the two will be doubled. "

……………………

On Twitter, movie fans were furious, and there were a few complaints. They just said that the movie was too scary, or that the expected welfare scenes of the two goddesses did not appear.

It wasn't until noon the next day that professional film critics and film magazines published professional film review articles. While boasting, they also dug out some details and metaphors in the film that ordinary people might not be able to discover.

Otherwise, they are professionals. Most movie fans are just looking at the mountains. Without reading these articles, they don’t even know that there is so much content in this movie.

The last time a horror movie had such a momentum of universal acclaim was back when "Resident Evil" was released.

This was also shot by Luo Quan, which kicked off the popularity of zombie movies, but the two movies are not the same genre.

The half-day box office of the movie came out quickly. Because it was only released in North America, and the subject matter is relatively unpopular, except for horror movie lovers, only die-hard fans of the three leading actors would go to the premiere in the middle of the night.

The film's reputation is still in the process of fermentation, and it will take some time to convert it into a box office, so it has only received a half-day box office of US$17 million.

For a low-cost horror film, this result is definitely not bad, but compared to Luo Quan's previous two films, there is indeed some gap.

However, the impact is not very big. Once the word-of-mouth fertilizes, the box office will increase. She is not making a literary film, and the situation of being well-received and not well-received will never happen to her.

Just when the film industry was applauding "Silence of the Lambs", Luo Quan was sitting in his room having a group show.

She had just finished filming a movie and originally wanted to take a good rest and go back to Tokyo to go to school in a few days.

But after seeing some comments on Zhihu, she couldn't help but want to start a group.

The matter actually had nothing to do with her. The cause was that several so-called producers were mocking an independent musician with a good reputation and talent.

This independent musician has listened to a lot of Guluoquan, and it can be said that it is quite to her liking. Although her singing skills are lacking, the lyrics and melody are quite good, which is rare in the declining Chinese music market. Talent.

With popularity comes a lot of trouble. Several music producers ridiculed this young singer on Weibo that his works are all guava love songs to coax little girls, with rubbish melody and rubbish lyrics.

Although the scolded singer is low-key, it does not mean that he is not popular, so he quickly became a hot search.

A large group of fans went to these people's Weibo to refute, and soon the battlefield was opened up on Zhihu. These so-called senior producers directly analyzed how bad the singer's work was on Zhihu live broadcast, which was almost equivalent to Pointing at the nose and swearing.

What's interesting is that the singer who was scolded has always been known as a Buddhist. He never paid attention to any criticism he faced, and often called on fans not to care about the right and wrong.

Therefore, the singer who was ridiculed has not responded until now. It is the fans who are helping to speak.

Those producers probably know the person's character, so they dare to do such a thing. However, ordinary music fans don't have an in-depth understanding of music theory, so if they want to refute, they often can't argue with half a bucket of water.

However, this does not mean that no one can cure these guys.

When Luo Quan had nothing to do, she was scrolling through her phone when she saw this live broadcast at the end of the Zhihu hot list. After spending a little time to understand the ins and outs, she immediately became popular.

Originally, there was a shortage of singer-songwriters in China. Finally, a talented singer appeared. You didn't want to support him, but you actually used this frivolous method to attract bad money.

It is really unbearable!

"Have you seen the chord conversion in this part? The method used by Xu Shan is really too low. It is a technique that was eliminated in the industry a long time ago..."

Yang Quan, a music critic and music producer of a certain company, talked about Xu Shan's work in the live broadcast room. Some people criticized it in the barrage, and some excellent passers-by also agreed with it.

Yang Quan was feeling very proud as he spoke. The effect of this live broadcast was really great. More than 10,000 people watched it. He will advertise his work later and the direct traffic and money will be enough!

At this moment, a barrage with a golden prefix that was officially certified by Zhihu floated across the screen:

"The Chinese music scene is in a sluggish state, and people like you have to bear a large part of the blame."

Yang Quan frowned and was about to see who was speaking so arrogantly. After carefully looking at the nickname of the barrage, he was dumbfounded.

This nickname is preceded by a string of titles that are comparable to the Mother of Dragons: internationally renowned singer, composer, director, actor, Grammy Award winner, Oscar Golden Melody Award winner, Time Magazine's 2017 Person of the Year, and Forbes list of No. 1 under 20. Rich man, the most beautiful in the world——Luoquan!
