In the evening, the huge auditorium of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood was packed with seats. On the big screen behind the stage were only the logos of the company, LMS and premiere sponsors.
The 932 spectators were made up of many different groups of people, including Los Angeles media people, well-known film critics, and hundreds of lucky ordinary viewers who had obtained tickets through participating in various promotional activities.
Lawyer Salton and his wife are among the close confidants of Ye Wei who received the tickets, and are also one of the legal advisors of LMS. What does it mean that the status of the industry is different from what it used to be? That's it. Viy has been rising continuously in the past two years, and he has also risen with it. Attending such an occasion was something that I never thought about before, but now I am sitting here.
There is not just one little person who has succeeded because of Ye Wei. Not all of them can attend, but they have the same wish. Wei, thank you for bringing this, and you must continue!
After some activities to thank fans and media for publicity, the screening was about to begin. There was an atmosphere of great anticipation in the theater, and a round of applause broke out.
The only candidate to open the premiere, Ye Wei, walked out from the right side of the stage with a microphone in hand. Everyone saw him walking vigorously and smiling.

November 5th is the premiere day of LMS, and several film critic screenings were held before that. For the North American film critic community, no film critic is willing to miss this such a unique film, no matter whether it is good or bad, Don¡¯t miss it.
Of course Roger Ebert has to watch it. He gave Ye Wei's first two movies a perfect score of four stars, but that doesn't mean there will be extra points this time. Albert sat down in the front row of the screening with a cold face, putting himself in the most normal state of mind, forgetting Ye Wei's age, forgetting about things other than the movie, and watching the movie first.
The surrounding film critics were also quiet, and the atmosphere of mixed anticipation, excitement, wanting to calm down, and planning to be critical was almost depressing. Richard Rope, Duane Byrne of The Hollywood Reporter, and USA Today¡¯s Claudia Puig, Manola Dargis of The New York Times¡
Everyone is like a dormant bloodthirsty beast. Once they see something bad about LMS, they will attack and tear it into pieces.
Not everyone has an ordinary mind. Most people can finally watch this star-studded genius film. Since it is promoted like this, don¡¯t be afraid of others¡¯ high demands!
Furthermore, viy is no longer considered a newcomer, only half a newcomer. Prodigy boy, I hope you won't disappoint!
¡¡
November 11th, Veterans Day, is the release day of LMS. On this day, 4 movies were released on a large scale, including "Jumanji 2" in 32 theaters, "Little Miss Sunshine" in 3,116 theaters, and "Bad Dragon" in 2,443 theaters. ", "Money or Life" in 1,652 theaters, and "Pride and Prejudice" was released in a small scale in 215 theaters.
Some people want to see Kristen Stewart, some want to see Jennifer Aniston, some want to see Keira Knightley
There are also people who want to watch Hanks and Roberts and support Ye Wei. People who have been waiting for a long time and have booked tickets will choose LMS.
Viy fans from various cities came out like a surging tide.
In the evening, in Columbia City, Kelsey-Zhou¡¯s family of five went to the theater to watch the movie together. As a family of Ye Wei fans, today is really a happy harvest festival.
"We want 5 tickets, lms, thank you."
"Please give me two lms tickets."
Ticket sellers everywhere can hear this. Among the ticket-buying audiences, there are families, couples, friends, individuals adults, teenagers, and all kinds of audiences.
In Toronto, Hai Lei and a group of friends went to watch it happily. Nina watched the premiere, and they watched the public screening. It was the same movie.
In Los Angeles, a girl watched Ye Wei's movie for the first time. She admitted that she was attracted by the publicity and wanted to see how talented it was.
In the town of Paradise, Utah, Mody came to the town cinema alone to watch LMS.
She is a farm girl and doesn¡¯t have money to buy collector¡¯s edition DVDs and other fan-related things, but she is a fan of Ye Wei¡¯s movie. She loved his deeds and his movies. Whenever she felt confused about being trapped in a mediocre, dull and bullied life, she would have a vague hope when she thought about Ye Wei.
Moody bought a ticket and entered the theater. The auditorium, which could seat about a hundred people, was already filled with more than half of the audience. She found a seat on the edge of the back row with no one around and sat down, looking at the big screen.

At the Hollywood Chinese Theatre, the audience stopped applauding, and Ye Wei walked to the stage and stood still.
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen." Ye Wei looked at the sincere smiling faces of more than 900 guests, family members, and friends. These people were undoubtedly praying for his success. The people who have supported him all the way, colleagues, fans and fans
The mood is indescribable, he can¡¯t help but??Wowed with emotion: "My life has undergone tremendous changes in the past two years, some good and some bad."
He took two steps, and the waves in his heart became more and more violent. "This movie is a comedy movie about family, how we view success and failure, public and private. I was born in a middle-class family I really don't know what I want to do." What can I say? I'm so excited. I shouldn't be so confident. I should prepare a speech."
The whole audience burst into laughter, but people who knew him well were not worried. Viy needs a speech? Never heard of it!
Ye Wei couldn't speak anymore and rummaged in the inner pocket of his suit jacket. He could only take out a colorful candy wrapper and looked at it, "Now I only have candy wrappers. I stole them from my sister's Halloween candy bag. I really Hate yourself."
Laughter continued to ring through the theater, and Duoduo, who was sitting in the front row, exclaimed: "You are such a big brother!" She was covered by Nina next to her, and Gu Qiao, who was preparing to provide her with parental guidance on the other side, laughed. For comfort, there was the half-full candy bag at Duoduo's feet.
"I'm serious." Ye Wei smiled, "I can't express my current mood and various thoughts in a few minutes. Fortunately, the 107 minutes that will be screened will say a lot. These 107 minutes are my Yes, it¡¯s also a lot for a lot of people.¡±
"I have to talk about my family. My family was in a similar state to the Hoover family in the film. It was on the verge of collapse. Two years ago, my family participated in the Black Friday rush, which can only be described as crazy. From the beginning, I understood , life will always give us many difficult times when we have no choice, and whenever that happens, we need more courage and determination. In the film, the Hoover family will encounter such moments one after another and make decisions one by one. Decide."
The theater was very quiet, with only Ye Wei's words echoing, and occasionally some sneaking applause from the guests.
"Of course, let's talk about chasing your dreams. This bastard fooled us all."
Before he finished speaking, the whole audience burst into laughter again, but he continued with a serious face: "A friend of mine once made a great metaphor. He said that chasing dreams is like pole vaulting. No matter how you jump, If you don¡¯t jump, you will eventually fall, but if you dare to jump, you will have transcended the ordinary and have flown.¡±
he? It's her! It's me! Lily smiled slightly when she heard this, but she couldn't express her feelings. Did you remember it wrong again?
She did not sit in the front row with her father, but sat in the middle area of ??the Dream Chaser League. Trisette next to her said softly, "What you said is right." She said quietly: "Stop talking."
Many people vaguely remember that this seems to be what Lily said? Which speech?
Over here in the front row, Nina raised her thumbs up, that¡¯s a good metaphor!
Ye Wei on the stage added: "And I would like to add that chasing dreams is like a paper airplane. When we embark on the journey, it is often fragile, tiny, and like a piece of white paper. It takes off because we want to take off. . Maybe we will crash, maybe we will land successfully, and then we will start again, but we will never fly again!"
Another round of applause rang out, causing everyone to applaud heartily. Ye Wei raised his hands with a smile: "Thank you, thank you everyone! I know you want me to get out of here quickly and watch the movie quickly, so I still stand. What are we doing here? Let¡¯s enjoy the movie!¡±
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The atmosphere in the theater is filled with emotion, thought, and black humor. Everyone is ready to watch this story.
Ye Wei handed over the microphone to the staff, walked off the stage and sat back in the middle seat in the front row. To the left of Nina, his family and Toto were around, and everyone was laughing.
The sound effect for quietness sounded in the theater, and then the big screen in front started to show images!
At this moment, the eyes of the 932 spectators lit up and the show started!
Elegant music sounds, and the title of DreamWorks appears. In the night sky, a child is sitting on the crescent moon fishing, and the crescent moon becomes the letter D. The camera moves to the left, and the drifting clouds and fog cover the background. When the clouds and fog pass, dreamworks- skg
??Then came the title of Playtone, and amid a burst of bright electronic music, an oval with the word playtone in black letters on a yellow background shook and appeared, stabilizing.
Then comes the opening title of Dream Chaser League, with elegant and light music. In the blue sky, on the hillside grass, a classic white paper airplane flies from near to far. The camera zooms in and shakes, and only the wings of the paper airplane can be seen. It says: cha color-dream-league-films
At this moment, every member of the Dream Chasing Alliance was filled with excitement, and their young faces turned red. Lily covered her trembling mouth with both hands, thinking of something
With the brisk electronic-style soundtrack playing, the feature film was projected on the big screen. The slightly chubby little girl Oliver watched the Miss America awards video at home, fascinated and stupid.Clumsily imitating the demeanor and behavior of a champion.
¡°There are two kinds of people in the world, winners and losers.¡±
In the midst of the music, the opening scenes were reflected one after another, and the six members of the Hoover family appeared one after another. Richard, who was talking about the rules of success in the classroom but only had a few listeners, DeWine, a weird boy who was training hard in the bedroom, and The grandfather who takes drugs in the bathroom, the desperate housewife Cheryl who drives to the hospital to pick up her brother, and the lost Frank who attempts suicide.
At this moment, Ye Wei choked up without warning, with a sullen face and unblinking eyes. Nina gently held his hand and spoke tenderly.
