As a well-known filmmaker in this country, Jiang Xiaojun and Ge Guangtou were recognized by sharp-eyed reporters before they even left the cinema. A female reporter quickly stopped them.

"Two, I just watched "Transformers"..."

It was obvious that the female reporter knew Jiang Xiaojun and Ge Guangtou, and she asked directly, "Can you talk about your views on this movie?"

"The momentum of the movie is very grand." Ge Guangtou thought for a moment, and then said, "Its visual effects are too outstanding, and the technology used is also pioneering. These are incomparable to domestic movies... Well, there are also shocking production costs."

"What do you think?" The reporter turned to Jiang Xiaojun.

Although he was banned from directing the film by big scissors for many years, Jiang Xiaojun is still a director. From the director's perspective, "Duke Rosenberg used all the visual tools he mastered, leading those of us who watched the movie like a master of strategy to appreciate the grand scenes and spectacular vision. Although the story of this film is too simple, it is simply impeccable in terms of technical effects."

The reporter's eyes were not only on celebrities, but also on ordinary movie fans.

Ms. Lu, who works at China Merchants Bank, told reporters that she didn't like watching such movies, especially a bunch of movies with machines striking around, but now she has changed her opinion. "I think it's shocking, mainly because of the special effects. Many ideas shocked me. If you can shoot movies like this, you can't be picky about such movies visually."

Mr. Zhang, who works in an advertising company, said, "Now domestic films and imported blockbusters are at high prices, so I think it's worth it to spend money to watch such movies."

This is also the opinion of many movie fans.

After leaving the cinema, Wang Ziming quickly returned home. Although it was getting late, he had no sleepiness. His mind was full of scenes of Autobots and Decepticons colliding. Those real scenes that seemed to happen in front of him once made him wonder whether there would be Transformers in the world he lived in.

The ringtone of the phone suddenly rang. Wang Ziming took it and looked at the number. The caller was a friend of his. The other party was an avid Transformers enthusiast, but he did not go to watch the video. He also didn't have much favoritism for Duke Rosenberg's movie. The reason is very simple. The video changed too many Transformers' styles.

"How is the video?" A familiar voice came from the receiver. "Isn't it disappointing?"

"No, absolutely no disappointment."

Holding his phone, Wang Ziming walked back and forth a few steps in the room and said in a decisive tone. "The special effects of "Transformers" are so excellent. If this movie is on the highest throne of gi special effects, the special effects of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" and "Spider-Man 3" that we watched together can only be drawn on the steps next to it. These are just two levels of effects. "Transformers" simply make it hard for me to believe that these big guys were made on computers, and they seem to exist in reality."

"This...is this true? You didn't lie to me?"

The voice in the receiver was hesitant, "He changed the Transformers' shape. Are you dissatisfied?"

"Don't talk about the blocks in those cartoons. Although this is our childhood memory, it's hard for me to imagine what the effect would be like to put those blocks in this video. Don't yell at these skeletons after watching a few stills, because you can feel the shock of these 'scrambled iron' on the screen, and I can guarantee that you will definitely accept the so-called scrambled iron in the video."

It seems that my friends don’t want to miss such a wonderful video. Wang Ziming continued, “This video is not for us to tell us about life or to pretend to be connotations. This video only has two purposes. First, to make money in your pocket, and second, to make you feel happy after spending money. I just came out of the theater and saw most of the audience who walked into the theater. They all felt happy, and they were as unsatisfied as me. I plan to watch it for the second time tomorrow.”

He asked, "Li Ping, are you going?"

"I……"

This person named Li Ping was still a little hesitant, "I'll check out the comments online first."

After hanging up the phone, Li Ping turned on the computer and went to the professional movie website Time Network. In the most conspicuous position on the homepage, Optimus Prime's huge avatar was particularly eye-catching. After clicking on the link, he did not go to see the other ones, but dragged the page to the bottom. Here is the relevant comment column.

More than a thousand movie fans watched the premiere, and there were some comments here.

"It's over, I'm losing my rationality again."

"The classic "Transformers" is a silly movie, even if the premiere is a bunch of posters, followers like me will be excited and shocked. I used to pretend to be calm, but I lost my mind at the beginning of the film."

"The video can only be described as amazingly gorgeous. When mechanical sounds sound one after another when deformed, the entire theater was suffocated..."

"Just say one thing, I love Duke Rosenberg's "Transformers" to death."

Seeing these, Li Ping felt that he had returned to the era when he hated the most and was called Bumblebee and everyone was fighting to be Megatron. At that time, the Decepticon was much more popular than the Autobots. Now, I think that the Autobots won less openly every time. It was all the help of the director and screenwriter. As a result, many of the peers around him said in Megatron tone that the enemy had discovered and were ready to launch!

He unconsciously took his cell phone and dialed the number just now. After the opposite side was connected, he said directly, "Zi Ming, let's go together tomorrow!"

"If you want to watch it, just watch the Ima3d version, I'll book the ticket first."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Ziming checked it online, and then dialed the number of one of the only three IMA theaters in Shanghai, but he got it but was disappointed. The ima3d version of "Transformers" will not have tickets tomorrow!

He called two other cinemas with IMA cinemas, and the answers he had not received were still answers.

There is no way, Wang Ziming can only settle for the second best and choose the 3D version. Fortunately, the 3D tickets are a bit nervous, but you can always queue up to buy them.

"I called to book tickets and found that the IMA version tickets were gone. I finally booked the 3D version tickets, and it would be tomorrow's midnight event."

He called his friends helplessly.

As an emotional bond connecting the generation born in the 1970s and 1980s, Transformers' status is particularly prominent. Therefore, even in China, there are still Transformers fan clubs, Transformers annual meetings, and online fan exchange activities, which are enough to provide the most basic audience for the live-action movie of Transformers.

As time goes to midnight, more "Transformers" scenes begin to be screened, and more and more movie fans have seen this commercial masterpiece, and the Internet is full of views of ordinary movie fans.

On the Tianya Forum, id is Optimus Prime's message, "It's too light to say that this movie will be 'hot'. Transformers' is incredibly good!"

"The special effects are definitely top-notch when I come back from watching the Transformers movie. The film gives me a little longer," an anonymous netizen left a message on Time.com, "But I like it very much!"

"Ok, comment on "Transformers"?...Wow, wow! Incredible... Great!" This is what someone said to a friend on QQ.

Similar remarks are everywhere on the Internet.

"I was completely shocked by Transformers! For those 110 minutes, I felt like I was back in my childhood. Thank you, Duke Rosenberg! Also, the 3D three-dimensional effect is definitely breakthrough and shocking!"

“It was a spectacular experience, never seen before!”

"It's so cool! "Transformers" is simply unparalleled, extremely shocking and invincible!"

"Every second is filled with so many action scenes. After watching the video, you may be unable to resist the temptation and add another 100 yuan to the box office."

This is not the relatively mature film market in North America. Both the fans and the industrial chain are in the initial stage of rapid development. Duke will not ignore the media's guidance on public opinion and the influence on the audience. Internet water army is also extremely popular in this huge area.

Then there are professional film critics in this market. They are all in their infancy and the prices are far less outrageous than those in North America. They only cost a few hundred dollars to get the flag-shaking of these people.

To put it bluntly, there is no difference between this industry on both sides of the ocean.

However, some people will not buy "Transformers", some people will like this type of video, and some people will not like this type of video.

"Transformers" is not very popular on Douban, a famous Chinese petty bourgeois website.

Although there are many cheers such as "exciting, shocking, and successful" on Douban movies, they have also encountered some "bad comments".

Some people have very straightforward suggestions to boycott the film, "This noisy, rough movie will make you feel more painful and happy."

Some also questioned that the film was a commercial, "a disgusting, strongly inculcated commercial act to sell cars, toys and wars, which lied to itself as a movie. It was not a movie, it was a sour junk drink, and it was advised not to let your kids touch it."

There is no doubt that Duke's production style is not very popular among mainstream users of this website.

Someone left such a message, "From the moment Duke Rosenberg, who only exploded, became the director of this movie, Transformers lost the opportunity to become a slightly decent movie. He had no plans, no style, no storytelling, and noisy. He only knew how to accumulate special effects, only knew how to pursue the biggest and noisiest, no matter whether the stars in his hands were Nicholas Keith, Keanu Reeves or those machine giants who could turn into cars, he just kept them shaking and shaking them together with the camera."

However, this is destined to be a niche view. No matter what they say, it cannot change the fact that the audience line up in front of the theater and buy tickets for "Transformers". Moreover, major theaters are full of confidence in the box office. (To be continued...)
