This director lacks vision.

Chapter 413 Though one can pluck the stars from the sky, one still pities the people of the world.
Today, I fought hard to win the competition and found the magic stone, but the production team tricked me.

Yang Shouwen was already in great pain.

Now that he's dressed in women's clothing and Wang Jia'er has said those things to him, he's really starting to lose his composure.

Yang Shouwen has a somewhat feminine personality and her emotions come on quickly, so her eyes immediately reddened.

That tearful expression, paired with her beautiful women's clothing, makes her even prettier than many girls.

As expected of Kaixin Wenwen, she completely stunned Wang Jiaer and Cai Xukun.

Only Bai Mengyan was laughing wildly, expressing her enjoyment of the show.

In particular, the host said, "Tonight, Yang Shouwen will be dressed as a witch and participate in a name tag ripping battle."

The witch has the superpower of killing twice, which can eliminate any candidate directly.

But the use of superpowers stems from love, which requires the help of teammates.

As for what love is and how to unleash superpowers, please explore those questions yourselves.

When his superpowers are activated, the magic stone worn on Yang Shouwen's head will light up.

These words made Yang Shouwen even more upset, as his superpowers were now restricted.

Without the checks and balances of superpowers, Jiang Yifeng had a huge advantage when tearing off name tags.

However, he was aware of the show's effect, so he took his time and allowed Tian Qianwei to perform more.

Xiaotian was having a blast; with the boss overseeing things, she could do whatever she wanted.

Compared to the previous three episodes, Tian Qianwei was more lively and adorable today, showing her true nature.

With its owner's support, the kitten loves to act aggressively.

As other teams were eliminated by Jiang Yifeng's team, Yang Shouwen's team became increasingly anxious.

He must unleash his superpowers, otherwise he won't be able to defeat Jiang Yifeng at all.

So the trio made a lot of abstract attempts:

They hugged face-to-face, back-to-back, and Wang Jiaer and Cai Xukun sandwiched Yang Shouwen in their embrace.

Hugs were useless, so they started carrying people on their backs and even carrying Yang Shouwen in a sedan chair.

Finally, Kun made a snap decision and kissed Yang Shouwen, and Wang Jiaer followed suit.

But none of it worked; none of this represented love, and the superpowers weren't activated.

In the end, they were torn apart by Jiang Yifeng and Tian Qianwei working together. Qin Lan watched the show from the sidelines without making a move.

The real witch defeated the fake.

Cai Xukun complained indignantly, "What exactly is love, and how do you unleash superpowers? The production team is really ripping us off!"

Jiang Yifeng shook his head and said, "I've guessed how to activate superpowers."

After the name tag ripping battle ended, everyone gathered around, curiously watching Jiang Yifeng.

"It's actually very simple. What is love? It's about sacrificing for love. There are many classic scenes in movies and TV dramas."

If either Cai Xukun or Wang Jiaer stepped forward to protect Yang Shouwen and took the blow for him when I ambushed him, then the condition for love would be met.

The witch witnessed her beloved brother die protecting her, and thus completed her final demonic transformation, becoming a full-fledged witch and beginning a reign of terror.

Hearing Jiang Yifeng say this, everyone suddenly realized.

This time, no one bothered to verify whether the director was real or not.

Deng Chao suggested, "Why don't we act it out again according to the script the director team wants, and see if we can bring out the witch's abilities?"

Since recording the show was all about having fun anyway, Deng Chao's suggestion received a positive response from everyone.

Jiang Yifeng plays the main villain.

Once his Beast Heart talent was activated, his powerful villainous aura immediately intimidated the entire audience, and he instantly got into character and started tearing into the fray.

Just as Yang Shouwen was about to have his name tag ripped off, Wang Jiaer tried to protect him, but Cai Xukun acted even faster.

With a familiar backstab move, Kun Ge stood in front of Yang Shouwen.

With a tearing sound, Kun Ge's name tag was ripped off!
He froze, slowly reached out and touched Yang Shouwen's face, saying, "Quick...run!"

After saying that, Cai Xukun collapsed limply.

Yang Shouwen let out a painful cry and hugged Kun Ge.

From this, Jiang Yifeng realized that Yang Shouwen had a great talent for acting.

He has a sensitive and somewhat emotional personality, which is an advantage in acting.

Yang Shouwen became completely emotional and cried very sadly.

Wang Jiaer was initially annoyed, feeling that he had been too slow and that Kun Ge had stolen the show.

But then the classic scene unfolded: Yang Shouwen cried so hard that snot was running down his face.

A snot streamed from his nose, but retracted just before it touched Kun's lips.

But soon, the snot started falling again.

The entire audience watched intently.

Kun is pretending to be dead, unaware of what he is about to face.

Finally, after three or four seconds.

The snot couldn't hold back any longer and broke off, falling into Kun Ge's mouth.

The audience burst into laughter.

Kun opened his eyes and immediately understood what the slimy, disgusting thing in his mouth was.

Jiang Yifeng thought that Kun Ge would throw up and then shout that he was disgusted.

Unexpectedly, after training on the "Let's Farm" program, Kun Ge's talent for making fun has reached its peak.

Kun grabbed Yang Shouwen by the neck and shoved the snot from his nose into his mouth.

Targeted retaliation.

What the hell!

Jiang Yifeng's Beast Heart talent has been ruined!

This scene is absolutely appalling!
Deng Chao immediately started swearing and stomped his feet frantically!
Chen He covered his eyes, looking like he couldn't bear to watch, while the others also had various interesting reactions.

Wang Jiaer, in particular, had an expression that suggested he had survived a disaster.

Only Bai Mengyan was laughing heartily.

When she smiled, everyone laughed along with her.

In Jiang Yifeng's view, Cai Xukun has a very promising future after being reformed.

She can sing and dance, she's good at making jokes, and she's really good at creating funny moments; she's really entertaining. Amidst this cheerful laughter, today's recording came to an end.

It was already 1 o'clock in the morning.

Jiang Yifeng invited everyone to have a late-night snack at a late-night food stall.

This is a Sichuan-style food stall, catering specifically to people who work late nights, such as taxi drivers.

Although it's not high-end, the ingredients are all fresh and the food is delicious. It was recommended by a local, Tian Qianwei.

Everyone ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Just moments ago, Cai Xukun and Yang Shouwen were disliking each other, but now they're inseparable best buddies with their arms around each other's shoulders.

When the topic of movies came up, Qin Lan said with a smile: "Pacific Rim is a huge box office hit, estimated to reach 20 billion US dollars, ranking third in film history."

We're not asking for much from this witch movie, but we should at least get a billion dollars at the box office, right?

Currently, the highest-grossing film of all time is Avatar, and the second is Titanic. These two films have both surpassed $20 billion in box office revenue.

The Pacific Rim does indeed have a chance to break into the top three.

Jiang Yifeng took a bite of duck blood and said with a smile, "It's hard to predict, but riding the wave of Pacific Rim, The Witch's box office performance will definitely be good."

The witch released a trailer today, and I haven't seen the audience feedback yet.

The movie "The Witch" is a spin-off of Pacific Rim, appears in a Pacific Rim post-credits scene, and is directed by Jiang Yifeng.

So the film's promotional strategy was simple: ride the coattails of the Pacific Rim movie.

Today, Jiang Yifeng sang "The Lone Warrior" on the Running Man show, which sparked heated discussions online. Taking advantage of this, Fengxing Media released the final trailer for "The Witch".

Upon hearing Jiang Yifeng's words, everyone took out their phones.

Bai Mengyan acted the fastest; she opened Weibo and saw the pinned post from Fengxing Media.

"He could pluck the stars from the sky, yet he still pities the people of the world."

If the Rim of the Pacific is an epic of civilization's struggle against alien species, then The Witch is a microcosm focusing on the fate of individuals amidst the torrent of history.

While reaching for the stars is certainly romantic, personal feelings should be given more attention.

The latest trailer for "The Lone Warrior" is here! Who says ordinary people can't be heroes?!

A video was attached to this Weibo post.

Bai Mengyan clicked play and heard a series of "woo woo woo woo~ woo woo woo~" sounds of wind instruments.

Hearing this, the snipe attacked the city, and the people fled in terror, but to no avail.

Everywhere there were ruins and remains of flesh and blood.

Jiang Yifeng's singing began.

[You are brave, the scar on your forehead, your differences, the mistakes you made~]

Amidst the collapsed bricks and tiles, the witch, played by Tian Qianwei, struggles to squeeze out.

Her body was covered in wounds and dust, the blood mixed with the dust, congealing into the most painful scars.

There's no need to hide your worn-out doll, your mask, your true self...

The witch finally emerged, holding a tattered doll in her hand, standing blankly on the ruins.

They said they would carry the light and tame every monster.
They say, "Stitch up your wounds, nobody loves the clown."

The scene shifts to a scene of fanatical believers and chaotic streets.

The witch followed her sister, struggling to survive in the chaotic city.

As the song progresses, the scenes begin to switch continuously, featuring a conversation between the older sister, played by Li Yitong, and the witch.

I love you when you walk alone through dark alleys, I love the way you refuse to kneel...

"Civilization? Gone! Order? What's that?"

"We are all people abandoned by human civilization!"

Go, do you deserve it, in this tattered cloak! Fight, fight! With the humblest of dreams, I pay homage to the sobs and roars in the darkness...

"We're like two stray dogs right now!"

"If a stray dog ​​can't bite a person, what value does it have?"

They say you have to climb the ladder, but the price is bowing your head...

"My last remaining value is this body of mine!"

"I'm going to participate in human experiments!"

I love you walking alone through dark alleys, I love your unyielding spirit~ I love you facing despair without shedding a tear...

"Live! You must live!"

Even if you have to wallow in mud or get moldy in a stinking ditch, you must survive!

Who says only those who stand in the light are heroes?

With the last line of the lyrics, the witch wiped away her tears and walked alone into the deep darkness, completely merging with it.

After watching this trailer, Bai Mengyan's eyes welled up with tears.

She thought the trailer for The Witch would be something really cool, like the post-credits scene in Pacific Rim, where the Venerable One is killed with a single blow, and the Winnowing Fish statue is cleaved in two.

But this trailer is completely the opposite.

The witch in the trailer is weak and miserable, and she is bullied everywhere with her sister.

The city, attacked by snipes and nuclear bombs, has become a chaotic wasteland.

The older sister protected the witch to survive, but she eventually succumbed to the experiments and died. The witch lost her last remaining family member and turned to walk into the darkness.

The two sisters aren't entirely good people either; the trailer shows that they've done some bad things to survive.

This narrative style is somewhat anti-civilizational and anti-collectivist, and the entire trailer is dominated by dark tones.

It is indeed a different style and a different mood from Pacific Rim.

As the top-rated comment under the trailer says.

"He could pluck the stars from the sky, yet he still pities the people of the world." This poem sums it up so well.

Watching the movie Pacific Rim, I feel excited about the beauty of human industrial civilization and proud of the collective wisdom of mankind.
But this trailer for the witch pulled me out of that proud and arrogant mood.

It drew my attention to the most specific individuals in the disaster.

From the macro to the micro, together they construct a vivid and realistic world around the Pacific.

Looking forward to the release of "The Witch"!
