This is an anti-theft badge,

I hope everyone supports the original version.

"How is it?

Are you used to it outside just now? "Rob Cohen looked at Xie Yi with a teasing look.

"Director, please don't tease me."

Don't tease me. "Xie Yi was a little helpless. Previously, he had always appeared with the crew.

Even if there were more people shouting his name at the scene,

At least the crew helped share the burden, and they were all separated from the audience at the scene. What he felt the most were the screams of some little girls.

Who would have thought that today's scene would be so hot and passionate!

Xie Yi believed that if he hadn't been vigilant on the red carpet just now, he would have been kissed by the girl who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old. He didn't know how she broke through the circle of guards.

Although the girl was quickly pulled away by the guards on both sides, Xie Yi was really shocked by the behavior of these fans,

Don't fans only like the works of actors?

However, what Xie Yi didn't know was that there was more than one type of fan in the world,

Some were rational fans who simply liked the works of actors, but there were also fanatical fans who liked the looks of actors more than the works.

Otherwise, Xie Yi's work wouldn't have been released yet,

How could he have collected the power of faith from the fans?

The reason was that these young girls who didn't like a person at that age simply liked a person's looks contributed it.

However, Xie Yi hadn't thought of this yet,

He just secretly made up his mind that in the future, except for necessary activities,

It was better for him to go out less,

He didn't want to be suddenly attacked like this again.

Although those people couldn't get close to him without his permission, it was better to use as little magic as possible when they were outside.

After all, this society was a society that believed in science,

He didn't want to be remembered by the Academy of Science or the Research Institute. He wasn't afraid of thieves stealing, but he was afraid of thieves being remembered?

Moreover, he didn't have any ability to protect himself now.

"It's like this at the beginning,

You'll get used to it. "Rob Cohen patted Xie Yi on the shoulder and comforted him.

However, when he remembered the first time the crew gathered to discuss the publicity plan after filming, they were surprised when they saw Xie Yi,

Rob Cohen had nothing to say.

Previously, during the filming,

Xie Yi had darkened his skin tone.

He didn't want to appear too weak. Moreover, he wasn't dressed very neatly during the shoot. It was just an ordinary T-shirt and some baggy pants. Coupled with his somewhat messy hair, although the crew felt that this man was very handsome at first glance, it wasn't to the point of being breathtaking.

However, when they met for the first time after filming, Xie Yi, who had regained his original appearance, shocked everyone in the crew. Some people even secretly asked Xie Yi how he became fairer. However, when they received the correct answer from Xie Yi, they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Xie Yi had worked so hard in order to succeed in the audition, and he had managed to hide it very well. At least in the past few months that they had been filming together, no one in the crew had discovered it.

However, everyone could understand. After all, if Xie Yi did not disguise his appearance, it would be impossible for him to pass the audition. He was too handsome, so handsome that he did not fit the image of the character in the film.

Since someone could gain weight and lose weight for an audition, it was understandable that Xie Yi covered up his skin color for the audition.

They just didn't expect Xie Yi to be so handsome that it even led to the publicity of the film. Yes, they weren't exaggerating. Those girls were the best proof.

Xie Yi didn't talk to Rob Cohen for a long time. After all, today was a special day. Not only did they invite a lot of reporters and media, but they also invited a lot of film critics.

Although "The Fast and the Furious" was a purely commercial film, it didn't mean that it wasn't favored by film critics. After all, there were many types of films, and film critics weren't just those who seemed to be respectable and only commented on films that were expected to win an Oscar.

Today, "The Fast and the Furious" had invited two famous Hollywood film critics, Bob and Bruce. Unlike film critics who only paid attention to the content and values of the film, the two of them paid more attention to the commercial value of the film. Therefore, the two of them avoided films that were expected to win an Oscar. However, for a film like "The Fast and the Furious" that was completely commercial, they were delighted. Of course, this was to ensure that the quality of the film was indeed worth watching.

Although the two of them paid more attention to the commercial value of the film, it didn't mean that they didn't care about the content of the film. Therefore, if you were confident in your film, you should invite the two of them. After all, their reviews had always been the wind vane of the audience. If they thought that the film was worth watching, then the audience would most likely choose the film.

As it turned out, even if the film recommended by the two of them sometimes had small flaws, it was still worth watching.

Therefore, after Bob and Bruce arrived, Rob Cohen went to greet them. Although this wouldn't change their evaluation of the film, after all, the two of them relied on this to make a living. They wouldn't ruin their own reputation, but at least their comments wouldn't be too harsh.

After everyone was seated, the lights in the screening room went off, and the big screen began to light up.

At the beginning of the film was the Universal logo. Almost no one in the room was unfamiliar with it. After all, almost all the films produced in Hollywood every year were the works of the six major film companies. They might have seen this logo dozens of times every year, so naturally, they were familiar with it.

After that, the film officially opened with a burst of slightly agitated music.

Everyone couldn't help but sit up a little and turn their attention to the film that had already started.

Even Xie Yi, who had seen the internal test screening at Universal before, couldn't help but turn his attention to the film again.

At the beginning of the film, at a dock for loading and unloading goods, a full box of goods was lifted onto a truck by a truck driver. After that, the scene changed to several racing cars hijacking a truck.

To be honest, the scene was very intense, which was in line with the usual style of Hollywood commercial films.

Bob and Bruce secretly thought after seeing this. However, if the film was only at this level, it could only be regarded as an average summer popcorn film. It would be impossible to ask for more.

But now that the film had just started, everything was still possible. Bob and Bruce once again put their minds to the film.

The film gradually unfolded, and Xie Yi, playing Blaine, appeared in front of everyone in a green racing car. The dazzling car, the handsome man, even if the man was dressed casually, still made everyone's eyes light up.

Then, a series of superb racing skills were very cool, and it made people feel excited. The soundtrack was just right.

After that, Jordana Bruce's special appearance was also very impressive. There were handsome men and beautiful women in the film. Even if the plot was really uninteresting, the film would still be able to earn a good box office just by relying on the actors.

However, the subsequent development of the plot was obviously beyond the expectations of the film critics. Blaine turned out to be an undercover police detective, and Van Diesel's Dominic, the female lead Mia's brother, turned out to be a participant in the carjacking. The collision of friendship and justice, coupled with the series of intense racing scenes, especially at the end when Blaine and Mia wanted to stop Dominic from hijacking the car, and the thrilling scene where Blaine and Dominic almost collided with a train, obviously made the film critics put down their pens subconsciously and began to immerse themselves in the racing feast.

When the film ended and the curtain call began to play on the big screen, the people present woke up from the intense racing scene.

Xie Yi was not too invested in the film. Firstly, he did not like this kind of intense film. Secondly, he had already watched the film once. Although the film premiered this time had many changes compared to the unfinished film Universal's internal screening, the plot did not change much. Most of the changes were in the soundtrack. However, it was obvious that the new soundtrack was different from the previous one, and it was more exciting.

Unlike Xie Yi, the film critics present were not thinking about that. They were thinking about how such a film with a somewhat lackluster plot could make them, who had watched countless films, immerse themselves in the film.

In the end, they concluded that it might be because the racing scenes in the film were very satisfying. After all, which man did not have a hot-blooded passion? The crazy racing, the hot dancing, the swaying buttocks, the handsome men and beautiful women, the real Fast and Furious. The film's name was appropriate.

What was the most important thing in a commercial film?

It was not the plot, not the awards, and not the praise. It was the box office. A few other factors might be important, but only the box office was the key factor to measure the success of a commercial film.

Therefore, even if the plot of "The Fast and the Furious" produced by Universal was lackluster, it was able to attract people to watch and invest in it. This meant that the film was half successful.

As for the remaining half, it would depend on whether the publicity was on point.

When the curtain call ended, the lights in the premiere hall began to turn on. Whether they really liked it or not, the people present applauded. After all, it was indeed a film that was worth watching.

Rob Cohen smiled when he saw this scene. In the circle of famous directors in Hollywood, he was indeed not a well-known director. However, he could not help but feel happy when he saw that the film he directed was liked by everyone.
