Chapter 1363: This is what you call film art!!

Outside Bungeiza in Ikebukuro.

Since the morning, people with high-definition lenses who looked suspicious would appear from time to time, often disappearing after watching from afar outside the main entrance of the cinema~

The Shuyou Group staff waiting in the lobby of Bungeiza naturally discovered this, but there was nothing they could do~

"Watanabe-san..."

Susumu Ishikawa of the propaganda department said to his boss.

"Shouldn't we really do something about those reporters and paparazzi?!"

"Forget it... let's just leave them be~"

Eiichiro Watanabe knew that these reporters were here for the "Jurassic Park" preview, but because they didn't know the specific time and couldn't enter the cinema, they could only wander at the door in advance...

"We didn't invite the media to hold a press conference for this preview... they don't have materials, so they are naturally very dissatisfied... they just want to take pictures of the people who received invitations outside~"

"As long as they don't come to disrupt the order of the preview, just let them be~"

"Hai!"

Not long after Susumu Ishikawa responded, the first person with an invitation arrived.

"As expected, it's still here! Bungeiza has become Shuyou's private cinema!"

Takeshi Kitano walked in with an invitation in his hand, looked at the welcoming staff, and said with a smile,

"Come... check it, this is my invitation!"

"Welcome, welcome!" Eiichiro Watanabe quickly stepped forward with a smile. "Director Takeshi Kitano, you are the first one to arrive!"

Naturally, there was no talk of checking the invitation at this time, and he handed the T-Rex commemorative toy to Takeshi Kitano.

"This is a small gift!"

"Haha, because I was too curious, I came early."

Takeshi Kitano looked at the toy and asked with a giggle,

"Naoki Nagayama didn't come? That shouldn't be... it's his movie after all!"

"No, no, Naoki-san is making final confirmations backstage!"

Eiichiro Watanabe explained while leading Takeshi Kitano to the screening hall.

"He wants to ensure the effect of the screening..."

"Uh... I see!"

When he walked into the screening hall and looked, Takeshi Kitano instantly found something wrong... The seats inside were actually sofa-like seats, and the armrests between the sofas were flat and spacious, and could even hold some bags, drinks, etc.!

And the big screen in front seemed to be much larger than other cinemas, and even had a slight curvature...

"Is this a cinema?"

One must know that cinemas charge for seats, so naturally, they stuff as many seats as possible in a screening hall!

"Of course!"

A voice came from behind the screening hall. Naoki Nagayama walked out from the backstage where the projector was placed

"However... just as there are VIP rooms in clubs, movie theaters can naturally distinguish service levels too! To make the audience more comfortable while enjoying the film!"

"Oh?"

Takeshi Kitano looked left and right, nodded, and sat down; sitting in this kind of sofa seat was naturally more comfortable.

"What's the deal with the big screen in front?"

"This kind of giant screen is, of course, to make it clearer, more realistic, and more impactful!"

Naoki Nagayama came over to Takeshi Kitano's side and said,

"The projector in this screening hall has also been replaced with the latest xenon lamp projector... the image quality is absolutely beyond imagination..."

"In short, in this giant screen hall, you can experience the feeling of 'being there' to the greatest extent!"

"Boom?!"

From actor to director, Takeshi Kitano was naturally very concerned about the development of this kind of film technology... At this moment, he couldn't help but walk under the big screen, comparing its difference from other screens...

Films with high visual requirements are definitely more suitable for screening in such a hall!

"Hahaha, Naoki-san, I'm looking forward to this *Jurassic Park* even more now!"

"It won't let you down!"

Naoki Nagayama patted Takeshi Kitano on the shoulder, invited him to sit down, and had someone bring over snacks and drinks,

"Please wait a moment; the invited guests should be arriving soon! I must excuse myself to go welcome them!"

"Mm-hmm, go ahead, go ahead!"

At this time, in the lobby, Susumu Ishikawa had already persuaded away several waves of disguised reporters who wanted to try and break in~

"Sumimasen... this preview is by invitation only; only those who have received an invitation letter can enter..."

"I have an invitation letter, I just left it at home!"

The reporter in front of him looked serious, as if he didn't feel at all that he was lying,

"So just let me go in first!"

"Sumimasen... you aren't allowed in without an invitation letter!"

Susumu Ishikawa felt helpless, looking at the bulging sports bag,

"And, please hide the camera in your bag..."

"This is a bowling bag!"

"......"

In the end, it was with the friendly assistance of other tall and sturdy staff members that this reporter was asked to leave first~

However, those who brought invitation letters naturally didn't have such a result; after a quick glance, they were guided to the side to pick up small souvenirs...

Just at this moment, Naoki Nagayama and Eiichiro Watanabe also walked out, and the entire lobby erupted into a clamor, then returned to a lively atmosphere~

As time passed, more and more invited guests arrived...

"Long time no see..." "Sashiburi..." "You look younger!" "You're getting prettier!" "Thank you for coming..."

Naoki Nagayama wore a smile as he greeted those who had received invitation letters and asked someone to lead them into the screening hall.

The people coming today were mostly well-known figures in the entertainment industry, all of whom he had met once before, along with a small number of veteran film fans, so he had to handle each one well... he just felt his face was about to stiffen from smiling~

"Masaki-san, Masahiro-san, you've come!"

Seeing two familiar good friends, Naoki Nagayama was even more enthusiastic.

"Naoki-san..." Masaki Kobayashi responded with a smile, "It's very lively today! I saw many reporters at the entrance..."

"Don't worry, they won't be able to get in!"

"Is it really okay to treat the media like this?!"

Masahiro Shinoda frowned,

"What if they deliberately report nonsense..."

"It's fine! If there's a debate later, the buzz will be even better!"

Naoki Nagayama waved his hand,

"I have confidence in *Jurassic Park*!"

"Oh? Then we'll have to take a good look!"

"No problem, please come in!"

".... Alright~"

By a little past ten in the morning, the audience had mostly arrived, and after entering the screening hall, they all marveled at the difference of the giant screen hall.

As for Takeshi Kitano, he was eating nuts while chatting nonsense with the person next to him~

Finally, Naoki Nagayama walked in, didn't say much, and sat directly in the seat reserved specifically for him.

The lights slowly dimmed...

The bright xenon lamp light shone from the projector, illuminating the giant screen at the very front... then, the opening credits of *Jurassic Park* lit up...

The rumbling tunnel construction team, while working, dug up a piece of amber fossil from the Jurassic era... inside, a mosquito full of blood sat quietly in the center, as if frozen in time...

Just this opening alone made the audience present gasp in surprise.

"So clear!" "Too realistic!" "...."

Because the huge screen occupied their field of vision, the lifelike images, combined with the surround sound system, made the audience feel as if they were really at the construction site...

This immersive effect is something that absolutely cannot be experienced in other theaters!

Especially professional film directors and producers felt the tremendous superiority of this giant screen~

And some film critics were already conceiving articles praising this giant screen hall in their minds! Naoki Nagayama asked them not to reveal the plot, but he didn't say they couldn't write about the screening scene!

As the images on the giant screen changed, the story of *Jurassic Park* slowly unfolded...

At the tropical archaeological site, dinosaur fossils slowly appeared in the hands of a group of scholars... The paleontologist played by Harrison was invited by Yuko Tanaka to Jurassic Park to assess the ecological environment...

And in the eyes of the audience, the hot wind and yellow sand seemed to be about to break through the screen and blow onto their faces!

Next, the helicopter carried the audience along as it slowly landed on the helipad under the waterfall; the rushing water vapor seemed to make the audience feel their cheeks dampen...

Immediately following that, the assessment team sat in a car together and arrived inside Jurassic Park...

When the protagonists Harrison and Yuko Tanaka saw that living brachiosaurus, they were so shocked they held their breath... and the audience watching...

"Wow!" "My god!" "Too real!!!" "......"

"This is the scene from the second trailer!" "It's really a hundred times more shocking than the trailer!!" "....."

It wasn't that these professionals didn't understand theater etiquette; it was just that they couldn't help themselves!

The lifelike brachiosaurus walked slowly along the edge of the lake, emitting dull footsteps; it seemed as if even the earth was trembling!

Stretching its long neck to bite the leaves on the branches, one mouthful took a large chunk of the canopy; the trees seemed to have become snacks!

Not far away, more brachiosauruses were also foraging.......

The camera turned to a close-up, and one could see a herd of triceratops walking slowly across the grass not far away...

Even closer, tiny little raptors ran rustling past the grass on the side......

These scenes simply shattered the wildest imaginations in people's hearts, as if the most realistic Jurassic dinosaur ecology was being displayed before the audience's eyes!!!

At this moment, it wasn't just the veteran fans; even famous directors and film critics who had seen countless movies were deeply immersed in this lifelike Jurassic Park!

Film is the art of making fantasies come true!!

This sentence is the truth at this moment!!!

"So... can film special effects really reach this level?!"

Masaki Kobayashi opened his eyes wide, his heart full of emotion and some sighs... he was already too old and no longer had the energy to study special effects technology or wait for the development of the technology!

On the other side, Takeshi Kitano also opened his eyes wide, shocked by the images before him:

"This is what you call film art, damn it!!"

"Compared to this guy Naoki-san, the gap is just too big!"

"......"

Other audience members also had constant emotions in their hearts; just seeing this one segment alone seemed enough to brag about endlessly!!

However, the subsequent plot of the film surprised them even more!

When the heroine Yuko Tanaka found the sick triceratops, her eyes filled with moved tears, and she nostalgically stroked the triceratops' mouth and horns:

"This is my favorite dinosaur..."

If the previous brachiosaurus was still a long shot, then the triceratops this time was a close-up!

The triceratops' slightly heaving chest, eyes that were vivid enough to turn and blink, and the breath slightly blowing from its mouth all amazed the audience!

"How does the triceratops look alive no matter how you look at it!" "Could this also be special effects?!" "...."

Rustling sounds circulated among the audience; they really needed to say something!

However, this was all just the beginning; it wasn't the climax of the film...

When the investigation team investigated the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the huge T-Rex appeared, the entire screening hall held its breath just like the protagonists in the film!

Not until the T-Rex disappeared into the woods did they dare to breathe...

"Too domineering!" "As expected of a T-Rex!" "Look at those teeth, look at that agile pace! It's alive!" "Looking at it now, the space monsters in Ultraman are simply toys!" "......"

From the moment the T-Rex appeared, the plot began to take a sharp turn... The dinosaurs had escaped from their cages!!!

On a stormy night, the T-Rex escaped from the exhibition hall!!!

The rumbling footsteps shook the water surface; in the stormy night, the huge figure slowly appeared from the jungle...

The T-Rex's figure appeared beside the off-road vehicle, making the two children in the car not even dare to breathe!

And when the transparent baffle on the roof was smashed by the T-Rex, the shrill screams didn't just come from the screen; several audience members in the screening hall also screamed along with it!

At this moment, it was as if they were trapped in the car, being attacked by the T-Rex!

In the basement cables and server room, the heroine Yuko Tanaka was repairing the computer mainframe, and just as the mainframe started running again, a raptor's head suddenly darted out from behind the cables, directly knocking Yuko Tanaka onto the wire fence...

The moment the raptor darted out from the wires, besides hearing Yuko Tanaka's scream in the sound system, Naoki Nagayama was very sure that people in the two rows behind him had also screamed out!!!

This kind of immersive thrill was no less than the scariest horror movie!

"Tsk tsk... a grown man scared into his feminine self!"

Shaking his head, Naoki Nagayama continued to watch the big screen... although it was something he had produced frame by frame, every time he watched it, he could discover different novelties!

In the subsequent thrilling journey, the investigation team avoided the dinosaur herd, defeated the pterosaurs, and encountered the T-Rex again...

Scene after scene of adrenaline-pumping images kept the audience's eyes completely glued to the screen, not even willing to take a sip of water...

Especially during several dangerous plot points, the audience was even more nervous than the protagonists in the film!

Not until the very end, when the protagonists finally boarded the escape helicopter, did everyone finally let out a sigh of relief...

When the end credits began to appear, the audience in the screening hall fell into an indescribable mood...

It was a silence similar to the "sage time" after a satisfying experience, still carrying a sense of reluctance... as if they still wanted to return to that novel and exciting Jurassic Park...

The screening hall remained in this silence for several minutes, until the lights were turned on again...

"Clap" "Clap-clap" "Clap-clap-clap-clap-clap-clap" "......"

The continuous applause merged into a rushing wave; all the audience members clapped their hands hard, applauding for such an immersive and unforgettable film!!

"Naoki-san, too amazing!"

Takeshi Kitano shouted at Naoki Nagayama,

"From today on, you are my idol!"

"Haha... let's forget about that..."

Masaki Kobayashi, Masahiro Shinoda, and familiar friends from the entertainment industry walked to Naoki Nagayama's side one after another, not sparing any praise!

"Truly a rare masterpiece!" "It's film art!" "I said Naoki-san wouldn't let people down!" "....."

"The peak of special effects films!" "Even Hollywood couldn't film a movie like this, right!" "....."

"Will Director Naoki film a sequel?" "I want to collaborate!" "Count me in when the time comes, I don't want a salary!" "...."

"......"

Regarding these praises, Naoki Nagayama could only smile modestly and accept them...

Because there were no media interview activities afterward, Naoki Nagayama was able to see all the guests out of the theater... At the very end, he only made one request to everyone:

"Minna-san... for this kind of special effects film, the most important thing is the first impression!"

"I hope everyone will not reveal the specific plot details!!!"

"Arigato!"

Most of the audience nodded to show they understood, and there were also quite a few who had other ideas in their hearts, but Naoki Nagayama couldn't manage that anymore... as long as it didn't spread too much, it would be fine!

"Alright... Kitano-san, Masaki-san, Masahiro-san... it's rare that we meet, let's go have a meal together!!!"

"And chat about the shortcomings of the film..."

"Hahaha, alright!"

"......"

The paparazzi and reporters lurking outside finally waited for the moment the movie ended!

Many people followed the audience who had just watched the movie, hoping to get an interview...

"How was *Jurassic Park*?" "Is the rumor exaggerated?!" "It's not that good, right?" "....."

The interviewees either shook their heads and didn't answer, or smiled and shared some of their own feelings.

"Brilliant!" "Rare!" "Must watch..." "Far exceeded expectations!" "I suggest everyone must go to the theater to watch it!"

"...."

Although they refused to reveal detailed specifics, almost all the audience members who were pestered held one attitude:

"This is a film that far exceeds the public's imagination!"

"You'll regret it if you don't watch it!"
