Chapter 169 The Premiere Begins! The Protagonist Is Actually a Villain?

Fifteen minutes later.

In major cinemas across the country.

Fans of Chen Xiao's first three works, passers-by strolling around, adults and children having fun with their families, as well as people from the martial arts, film and television, and folk music circles all sat in the premiere hall.

The lights had dimmed, leaving only the light of the screen shining on everyone's faces.

After a few commercials.

On the green screen, a golden film flew out and turned into a golden dragon. Familiar music sounded, and the movie officially began.

Under the repeated accents of Western orchestral instruments, a golden butterfly flew across the desert, crossed the cliff, and flew up the valley.

As the butterfly flew upward, the sunlight on the distant horizon appeared in the picture.

The camera zoomed out, and the shape of the valley was the word "Kung Fu".

The camera went black, and the story officially began.

Screams echoed in the police station.

A policeman was thrown onto the plaque of "Evil Killer", smashing the word "Evil Killer" into pieces, and fell downstairs with the policeman.

With the sound of clanging footsteps, a man in a top hat walked in front of the camera, showing his black teeth and roaring: "Who else!"

The police officers bowed their heads and pretended to be busy.

The man took off his hat and pointed at the woman smoking behind him, "Such a beautiful woman, just because she spit on the ground, you caught her here."

He seemed to be a righteous man speaking for the victims, stretching his neck and asking in a rhythmic manner: "Is there still a king's law? Is there still law?"

...

In front of the screen, everyone laughed.

"Why is it so funny, hahaha?"

"It's obviously a scene of gangsters trampling on the law, why is it a little funny?"

"That mouth of black teeth doesn't look dyed, it's probably from smoking, it's awesome to be so black."

"This person is too arrogant, he shouldn't be the ultimate boss, I guess he will be solved halfway through the movie."

However, what the audience didn't expect was that one minute later...

In the pink-toned picture.

In front of the closed door with the words "Industrial and Commercial Security Committee, Fifth Branch Police Brigade" hanging on it.

The arrogant Crocodile Gang leader fell in a pool of blood.

"Police, come out and clean up the mess!" The Axe Gang's younger brother shouted.

The plot quickly advanced, explaining the background of the times.

In this era, society was turbulent and gangs were prevalent. Even the sheriff's detective had become a gangster's lackey.

In such an era, only some poor communities that even gangs were not interested in could enjoy temporary peace.

The scene turned, and the melodious "Fisherman's Song of the East China Sea" sounded.

The quiet and peaceful atmosphere of the Pig Cage City was presented to the audience.

In front of the faucet wrapped with cloth strips, the neighbors lined up to get water; in the public bathroom, everyone took the old-fashioned iron basin to brush their teeth and wash their faces...

As the camera shook, three-dimensional characters appeared on the screen one by one.

The honest coolie Qiang.

The humble fried dough stick who could speak English.

The sissy tailor who looked at the orchid finger.

The fiery red-lipped stormy Azhen.

The lustful landlord.

The landlady who is grumpy and can curse as fluently as eating.

And the handsome guy Jiangbao with half of his round butt exposed.

In front of the screen, with the melodious and cheerful music, the audience's mood also relaxed.

In a cinema, Deputy Minister Wu's 12-year-old daughter chewed popcorn and muttered: "The landlady is so fierce, like my grandma, I don't like her."

Deputy Minister Wu poked her head with his hand, "Stinky girl, how can you talk like that!"

The daughter pouted and whispered: "I saw a trailer. She chased the protagonist and beat him up, bullying the weak."

His wife also echoed: "I don't like her either. She said something like 'You deserve to be a coolie for life because you are so strong'. Her mouth is too stinky."

Deputy Minister Wu shook his head helplessly and didn't continue talking.

Regardless of the two of them, he thought that this shot was really great.

From the beginning to now, there are a lot of long shots, one character leads to another character.

The landlord and Azhen ran over and led out Jiangbao who was washing his hair. Jiangbao shouted because there was no water and led out the landlady. The landlady went downstairs and cursed and led out the neighbors.

There was no meaningless shot at all. It was really worth learning.

Oh... I was really crazy last year. I dared to stay in the film industry. It was really snatching food from the tiger's mouth.

...

Soon, this "neighborly harmony" and "husband and wife respect each other like guests" pig cage village welcomed two uninvited guests.

In the fast-paced pipa music of Ten Sides Ambush, two men in suits and straw hats came to the gate of the village and walked to Jiangbao's barber shop with a step that did not recognize any relatives.

As soon as the man in the gray suit appeared, many theaters were instantly boiling.

"Ahhh! Director Chen, hahaha, the first shot on the screen."

"Even this sloppy hairstyle can't stop him from being cool."

"Why does he look different from the last interview?"

"I heard from a friend at the beauty salon that he was asked by the makeup boss to go tanning, it's so funny."

But everyone still knows the etiquette of watching movies. After a brief ten-second excitement, they all calmed down and continued watching the movie.

Many fans took out their phones and secretly took photos or kept them as souvenirs or posted them online.

There were also a few fans who lowered their voices and discussed secretly.

"I want to know how the protagonist was beaten by the landlady."

"That landlady is a tigress at first glance. She gets angry at the slightest thing. I guess the protagonist accidentally broke her things, so she chased him and beat him."

"Didn't we say earlier that the landlady cut off the water supply to the neighbors? That was a foreshadowing. I guess the protagonist did a good deed and turned on the tap, so she beat him up, right?"

"That makes sense. You are worthy of it!"

Just as the two were smug about their wisdom, in the picture, Jiangbao had already cut Feizai Cong's hair.

Jiangbao smiled elegantly and shyly: "It's done. Thank you, fifty cents."

He pointed at Feizai Cong's shiny boss head, "It's beautiful, isn't it?"

The protagonist with a stubble on his face folded his hands in front of his chest and frowned at Jiangbao, "Why did you cut it so beautifully? Who told you to cut it so beautifully? Are you looking for trouble?"

In front of the screen, two fans were stunned.

They thought that Director Chen's story was about the growth of a bullied little person.

But now it seems that he is playing... a villain?

The two looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other's eyes.
