Chapter 263: How many stars actually appear in this long shot?

September 27, midnight.

The British Duel premiere officially begins!

At the premiere venue.

When the dragon logo appeared on the big screen, everyone fell silent.

Including Han Canping, who was chatting with Lin Mo.

He also turned his attention to the big screen.

Meanwhile.

Movie theaters across the country, the British Duel screening rooms.

These movie fans all became excited.

The film finally begins!

As for those opening logos, no one really cared.

The co‑producing companies were no different.

These were not what the audience focused on.

But the film critics…

They paid special attention.

Whoa.

Well‑known domestic film and TV companies all have stakes.

Led by Morning Light Group and China Film Group, there are many others beneath them.

Such as Xinli, Huayi, Jiaxing...

They also know.

Director Lin has extensive connections in the industry.

He can call Chen Daoming, Jiang Wen and others brothers.

His ties with Han San Ye and Cheng Long are especially close.

With the official start of the film,

The auditorium's noises gradually faded until complete silence.

On the big screen, the first scene showed a stormy night, with raging waves on the sea and a ship struggling forward.

Obviously.

Everyone could see at a glance that this was smuggling.

"It's Cheng Long!"

Soon, a viewer recognized Cheng Long.

That's right.

In the film, Cheng Long plays Guan Yuming, who is also on the ship, holding three children and a woman; his identity, obviously, is a smuggler.

Suddenly, the vessel rocked violently, hit a huge wave, and Guan Yuming's two daughters and wife tragically fell into the water, with cries for help rising repeatedly.

Just as the audience was watching intently,

the tense moment was abruptly cut.

Cheng Long woke up startled, his face drenched in sweat.

It turned out to be just a nightmare.

Then, after dawn,

Cheng Long prepared breakfast.

He woke his daughter, who is played by Re Ba as Guan Fan.

When she appeared in front of the big screen,

the audience naturally recognized her at a glance.

After all,

Re Ba's fame in the country is considerable.

Not only is she strikingly beautiful, but also her relationship with Lin Mo, which is well known to everyone.

From the dialogue we learn that Re Ba's character Guan Fan will attend a school ball in a few days.

Guan Fan chews bread, sips bubbling milk, and looks at Guan Yuming with sparkling eyes, saying, "Dad, accompany me to look at the dresses this afternoon!"

Guan Yuming replies with a smile, "Sure!"

After breakfast,

Guan Yuming takes Guan Fan out, preparing to take her to school.

Then, the classic shot appears.

"Uncle Ming, good morning!"

"Uncle Ming, I'm taking Little Fan to school!"

"Uncle Ming, bring Little Fan over for dinner tonight!"

"Ah Ming, Fan Fan is already so grown up; when will we arrange a marriage between our families?"

"Little Fan is getting more and more beautiful!"

"......"

The whole street is filled with Huaguo celebrities' faces.

Deng Chao, Yang Mi, Zhang Ziyi, Ge Daye, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen...

Too many, too many.

The ones with lines are all these big shots, like the hot young idols and pretty girls who are usually active on stage; they only have a brief shot inside.

For example, Bai Lu, Zhao Lusi.

One fleeting shot caught them sitting at a breakfast stall waving at Re Ba.

"WTF!!!"

"So many stars!"

"Sss…"

"Awesome shot!"

"Am I the only one who noticed that the guy who just drove the train was Huang Bo?"

"Haha, I saw Hong Lei Ge riding a little electric scooter with Zhang Songwen."

"How many stars must have appeared on camera?"

"......"

Fans started debating as soon as they saw the shot.

The same.

Here at the premiere venue.

The stars laughed when they saw their own shots in the film.

"Haha, Hong Lei and Songwen‑er, this shot will definitely go viral!!!"

Huang Lei laughed and said.

He also loves posting on Douyin.

There's a meme on Douyin.

Zhang Songwen and Sun Honglei rode an electric scooter, and netizens commented something like "hard sell, hard buy."

Next to them, Xu Zheng laughed and said, "This just one‑plus‑minute shot, I bet on Douyin people will replay it over and over; there are too many details!"

At this moment, Huang Bo laughed, "They could never imagine, Haozi squatting on the street cleaning shoes!"

Ning Hao smiled upon hearing that.

He had specifically consulted Lin Mo about this shot.

It was meant to surprise the audience.

Not only Ning Hao thought so.

Many others did as well.

They also specifically requested a shot so that the audience would discover it unintentionally.

Here.

Han Canping laughed after seeing this part, "You kid, this shot is pretty interesting!"

"San Ye, if you were there, I would have gotten you a shot too, guaranteed the audience wouldn't notice!" Lin Mo replied with a smile.

Chen Daoming, standing nearby, asked curiously, "Director Lin, in that long shot just now, how many stars were hidden?"

Upon hearing that,

Jiang Wen, Ge You, and Feng Xiaogang were also very curious.

Although they all appeared on camera,

they still didn't know how many people were there.

Anyway, it was a lot.

"Twenty‑eight!"

Sss…

The words came out.

Big guys!

In just over a minute, 28 stars appeared on camera.

No kidding.

Just this shot alone

sparked everyone's discussion.

Not just fans; even the stars were happily chatting about it.

Shi Tailong, Jason and the others felt nothing.

Mostly, I guess…

They don't know these Huaguo stars.

The movie continued.

Everyone's attention turned back to the big screen.

Guan Yuming took his daughter to school.

Then returned to the restaurant.

Regarding him and his red‑haired confidante, the role played by Gong Li,

there were also many scenes.

All the way to the afternoon.

Guan Yuming drove to pick up his daughter, and then a massive explosion occurred.

His daughter was blown up dead!

The shot of Guan Yuming holding his daughter

is in this segment.

Brother Cheng Long simply portrayed Guan Yuming's character's despair and sorrow to perfection.

That hollow gaze and deathly stillness.

Those tightly pressed lips, trembling hands, and slightly trembling body...

This acting!!!

So awesome!

Seeing Brother Cheng Long's acting in this segment, the audience seemed to be able to empathize, feeling that heart-wrenching despair!

"Damn, Long Shu's acting!"

"This acting is amazing!"

"Awesome!"

"Hiss..."

"Damn!"

"......"

Film fans who saw this segment were all shocked beyond belief.

As Lin Mo previously said.

Many people overlooked Brother Cheng Long's acting, truly not inferior to those movie emperors.

It's just that everyone usually didn't pay attention.

In this film.

Lin Mo can be said to have fully displayed Brother Cheng Long's superb acting.

At the premiere site here.

These film critics.

When they saw this scene.

They were also sighing over Brother Cheng Long's acting.

Including just now this explosion shot.

"I heard that this film's explosion scenes were all filmed for real by Director Lin!" said a film critic wearing thick glasses.

"Didn't you see? I've long said that Brother Cheng Long's acting is no worse than those veteran actors!"

Another film critic excitedly said.

He is a fan of Cheng Long.

He usually analyzes Brother Cheng Long's movies on Douyin.

"Just this acting, seriously, Brother Cheng Long could totally win an award!"

"Yeah!"

Brother Cheng Long at the premiere site.

He naturally could hear everyone's discussion.

To describe Brother Cheng Long at this moment in one sentence, that's simply too fitting.

Ak couldn't suppress his smile!
