Chapter 884

The film circle was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally looked forward to the 22nd.

Early in the morning, the internet was full of news that *The Founding of an Army* would hold its premiere at the Great Hall of the People in the morning.

The red carpet on the square outside the Great Hall of the People was laid out at 5:00 AM.

And on both sides of the red carpet, the huge Hu Hu Bayi flag pattern, mirrored and reflected by thousands of pots of red and yellow flowers, had also been arranged since 3:00 AM.

This project can be described as extremely mobilizing; but it cannot be denied that the scene is indeed spectacular!

Isn't it? The first thing a large number of media reporters did after arriving was to uncontrollably photograph the Hu Hu Bayi flag of flowers on the square. And tourists and passersby were all crowded and extremely excited.

"It looks very beautiful." Liu Yifei stood in front of the full-length mirror, commenting on the photos of the Great Hall of the People online.

"I thought you were bragging about your beauty today." Lin Nan walked out of the cloakroom leisurely and looked at Liu Yifei teasingly.

He was forced to change into a suit, because the specifications of today's premiere were really a bit high, and there would be many big leaders.

"So what? Isn't it beautiful?" Liu Yifei puffed out her cheeks and raised her eyebrows at Lin Nan. Her outfit was also a ladies' casual suit, pure white with some design sense, both cool and beautiful.

"Beautiful, of course it's beautiful. To be honest, you wearing this kind of clothes is really easy to hurt me."

Lin Nan nodded with hidden meaning, and then under Miss Liu's suspicious eyes, he spat out nine words: "The temptation is too strong, it hurts the body, it hurts the kidneys."

"Ew, you're really cheesy today. Well, and greasy! Hehe..." Liu Yifei wrinkled her nose and raised her head, laughing with disdain.

Afterwards, she walked to Lin Nan's side with a heroic posture, wrapped one arm around Lin Nan's neck, and hooked his shoulders with explosive girlfriend power, "Let's go, let's go!"

……

At 8:00 sharp, the red carpet for the premiere of *The Founding of an Army* officially began.

It can be said that there were many great directors and countless stars on the red carpet.

Those actors and stars who had appeared in the previous works *The Founding of a Republic* and *Beginning of the Great Revival* but were absent from this *The Founding of an Army* also appeared on the red carpet without exception.

And unlike the past, this time the Hong Kong circle was almost in a state of pouring out, and almost all the big names came to "show support."

To put it nicely, this is called "showing support"; but to put it colloquially, most of these people are taking this opportunity of Benny Chan directing and Emperor Motion Pictures participating in production to come and brush their faces and curry favor.

After all, the Hong Kong circle is dead; if you want to eat, if you want to eat your fill, you can only come to the mainland to make a living. But the current situation is that mainland capital seems to look down on people in the Hong Kong circle more and more, and is too lazy to pay attention!

Thinking back a few years ago, Peter Chan, Wen Jun, and others were still talking nonsense at the Hong Kong Film Awards, suggesting that mainland film and television capital should only provide money, and everything else should be handed over to the Hong Kong team.

When uniforms appeared on the red carpet, the atmosphere of the premiere of *The Founding of an Army* climbed to the peak and boiling point...

Golden Hall.

When Lin Nan and Liu Yifei walked into the venue in black and white, it was indeed a bit conspicuous.

It must also be admitted that Miss Liu is still wearing a single ponytail today, which makes it even more eye-catching. Especially her head shape, which is the kind that looks very good.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't come back?" After Liu Yifei was forcibly dragged away by Han Jia and Shu Chang, Lin Nan was surrounded by Guo Fan and others.

"The leaders of the Navy Political Department gave me a holiday and let me come to exchange and learn. They said that when *Operation Red Sea* has its premiere, the specifications will not be worse than *The Founding of an Army*."

"*The Founding of an Army* is a tribute film, Director Lin, look over there, Navy, Army, Air Force... quite a few leaders have come."

Following Lu Yang's voice, Lin Nan glanced at the innermost part. No one in the film and television circle dared to approach that side casually; they were all wearing uniforms, and there were quite a few stars.

Just after one glance, Lin Nan couldn't help but look for La Peikang in the crowd, and he was really a bit worried for the latter.

The crowd was surging; this is the lively scene in the Great Hall of the People today.

Jiang Wen was chatting with everyone about *Hidden Man*, Chen Kaige was being complimented by everyone about *Legend of the Demon Cat*, and Zhang Yimou's *Shadow* was also a key topic of discussion... The great mainland directors present today seem to have unreleased films in their hands.

After being socialized for a while, Lin Nan hid in the team of acquaintances, Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Wang Changtian...

"It's about to start, right?" Lin Nan asked thoughtfully.

"It should be starting, but today might also be terrible."

Ren Zhonglun sighed in a low voice, his face rarely without a smile. He only guessed that the scale of today's premiere would be relatively large, but he didn't expect it to be so large.

He no longer had the mind to watch La Peikang's excitement, but was a bit worried about the other party. Tribute film, tribute film, so many leaders came; if any leader was dissatisfied, on the spot...

"Okay, take your seats. It's best to shut up about those things." Han Sanping urged in a low voice; the premiere host had already taken the stage.

In the first row, undoubtedly, all uniforms, are also the party that came to "accept" the tribute film!

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were separated; he was in the second row, with Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, and others; while Miss Liu was in the third row, with Zhou Xun, Guo Fan, and others. Today's seating arrangement is very rigorous.

Benny Chan led a large group of actors including Liu Ye, Zhu Yawen, Huang Zhizhong, Wang Jingchun, Lu Han, Ou Hao, Li Yifeng, Zhang Yixing, Han Geng, Ma Tianyu, William Chan, Dong Zijian, etc., onto the stage.

To be honest, if the actors didn't stand together, the guests at the scene might not necessarily have that intuitive feeling. But after standing together at this moment, the impact of that "traffic" was particularly "eye-piercing."

"Thank you very much to China Film Group and Chairman La for giving me this opportunity to direct the tribute film *The Founding of an Army*... We boldly used a young all-star cast, hoping to inject new excitement into the tribute film..."

Except for a few actors from proper classes who could speak about the depth of history when giving their speeches, the rest, especially those "top traffic artists," were really unlearned, repeating those few words over and over, so awkward that the guests in the first few rows were embarrassed.

The most important thing is that none of the twenty or thirty leaders in the first row had a smile on their faces.

After nearly an hour of warm-up, *The Founding of an Army* finally met everyone. It's just that the atmosphere at the scene was even more indescribable than when the "traffic stars" spoke just now.

"This is too childish, right? Even a greenhorn isn't this stupid!"

"Rash, although the age is right, what is shown is not a positive image of wisdom at all; this is recklessness, no brains..."

"This kind of actor with no spirit in his eyes is actually playing a Marshal!"

"This is a battlefield, not showing off. Doing this, he would have been beaten into a sieve long ago, like a wooden club."

"This is just a hooligan, a little punk, they... this is insulting Ye..."

"If it were really like these young people acting in this movie, would they still be making a revolution? Hehe, they would have been killed long ago..."

……

Lin Nan had already closed his eyes, his head bowed, not daring to look. It's not that he didn't dare to watch the movie, but he didn't dare to look at the first row.

His position was in the second row, and the dissatisfaction he could hear could only come from the left and right and the row before and after.

But obviously, only the first row dared to scold like this in this situation. Because everyone else was hindered by the people in the first row and dared not speak.

The movie was still playing, the sound of gunfire echoed in the Golden Hall, completely suppressing the discussion that gradually rose in the audience.

Lin Nan bowed his head and glanced left and right. Good fellow, many people were in the exact same posture as him.

Suddenly, a "squeak" sound startled Lin Nan.

He looked up subconsciously, only to see a leader in the first row on the right front had already stood up and walked straight to the side door exit.

Hundreds of pairs of eyes in the audience followed that back figure implicitly. That back figure was so conspicuous, eye-catching, and resolute.

Han Sanping beside Lin Nan was also pale; he was also badly frightened by this sudden situation. This is not a small matter; this is a major accident... to put it bigger, it is really very serious.

Lin Nan didn't dare to turn his head to look for La Peikang, but he could be sure that the latter's face must be pale. As for so many guests behind him, I guess everyone didn't dare to breathe loudly, right?

"Chairman Han?" Lin Nan called Han Sanping in a low voice, but didn't get a response.

And at this time, two more leaders in the first row stood up with dark faces. They also walked out halfway with sharp steps and aggressive momentum. Leather shoes stepping on the carpet wouldn't make a sound, but at this moment it seemed there was already a sound, a sound of dissatisfaction!

The saying that things don't happen three times is completely invalid in the Golden Hall today.

The fourth, the fifth, the sixth... the seventh, the eighth... the ninth, the tenth...

There was still an hour left before the movie ended, but less than half remained in the first row.

Another half an hour passed, and the leaders in uniforms in the first row were completely gone... only some leaders from other departments remained.

A large area in front of Lin Nan was completely empty, the vision was incomparably empty, empty to the point of being a bit cold.

And the atmosphere at the scene had long been cold to the extreme.

Everyone today, all the guests who came to attend the premiere, can be considered to have seen a big scene.

I also believe that including media people, no one will go out and talk nonsense, and dare not talk nonsense, unless they are looking for death!

"Chairman Han, what about the leader's speech segment?" Lin Nan suddenly remembered, it seems that China Film Group arranged this segment; after the movie ended, let the "party" leaders give instructions.

"Speech? Go up and publicly criticize?" Han Sanping retorted in a cold voice.

"Don't ask about this and that, just pretend nothing happened today; didn't you see that La Peikang is no longer in his seat." Ren Zhonglun scolded.

Hearing this, Lin Nan looked at the seat on the far left of the second row, and it was indeed empty. "Well, I just lost my mind for two hours, I don't know anything."

"He definitely can't hide from this self-criticism this time, it just depends on whether there are other consequences..."

At this time, Han Sanping muttered again unexpectedly. As for who he was talking about, Lin Nan and Ren Zhonglun both knew.

……

In the fourth row, Wu Jing couldn't help but mutter to Xie Nan, his eyes faintly carrying some excitement and agitation:

"Regarding *The Founding of an Army*, the director was completely chosen wrong; he shouldn't have looked for a Hong Kong director. The casting is even more blind; he actually found so many traffic stars and outsiders who debuted from talent shows.

Our *Wolf Warrior 2* is stable!"
