Chapter 242

"Mr. Li, do you have any plans for the future?"

"I don't have any plans. As I said just now, whether it's the Venice award or the Golden Rooster nomination this time, it's a surprise. From now on, my work and life will be the same as before. I should be filming and filming, and I should rest."

Han Binjiang, who was sitting opposite Li Tang, quickly recorded this passage in the interview book, and then said, "Mr. Li, thank you for accepting our exclusive interview."

Li Tang smiled and said: "It's okay, our work complements each other, but I need to trouble you to help promote the film."

Han Binjiang stood up and bowed his body and said, "This is what it should be. Don't worry, Mr. Li."

The relationship between celebrities and reporters is actually very simple. Celebrities need the praise of reporters to increase their popularity, and reporters also need first-hand information from celebrities to attract readers.To put it bluntly, it's all business.

When Li Tang returned to the capital this time, he non-stop accepted exclusive interviews from Beijing Youth Daily, a high-circulation newspaper in Beijing, and Beijing News, a gossip media.

The promise to the leader must not be sloppy, the quality and quantity must be guaranteed, and even overfulfilled.This is not only a question of your ability to work, but also a question of your attitude towards leadership.

Li Tang had a good impression of Han Binjiang. Although the "Daily News" he worked for could not compete with "Beiqing Daily" and "Beijing News", he still accepted this exclusive interview.

In Europe and the United States, whether it is a politician, an entertainer or a sports star, there are usually so-called "reporter friends". Generally speaking, this kind of star or politician "reporter friend" can get some so-called exclusive news.In fact, to put it bluntly, this kind of "friend reporter" is a mouthpiece bought by politicians or celebrities, a tool specially used to speak out, refute rumors, and clean up whitewashing.

Li Tang and Han Binjiang met Yu Weimo, of course the other party Weimo. After more than a year of contact, they felt that the other party had the potential to develop into his so-called "reporter friend".

So Li Tang raised his wrist to look at the time, and said with a smile, "Xiao Han, it's already here, let's have a meal together."

Han Binjiang was flattered. From the perspective of an entertainment reporter, he wished to make friends with celebrities and spend more time with them. He hurriedly said, "Then I'm welcome, thank you Teacher Li."

Li Tang asked Zeng Jia to find a nice restaurant nearby, and the three of them sat in a private room.

Speaking of it, Han Binjiang is really shabby. Reporters from other big media usually bring photographers with them when they do exclusive interviews with celebrities, and there are even some trainee reporters and small reporters who act as assistants.He is alone every time, taking pictures and interviewing all by himself.

Because it was noon, everyone ate and chatted with tea instead of wine.

To be honest, although the two had contacted many times, most of them were in the form of interviews.Now getting along in private, Li Tang found that this Korean reporter has a wide range of knowledge, such as some unofficial history and anecdotes, and his understanding of movies is indeed unique, and he can even talk about some old Hollywood movies. It's like a treasure.

Li Tang couldn't help asking curiously: "Xiao Han, with your current level, you can go to some big media to engage in film reporting. Why do you have to hang around in a small media like "Daily News"?"

There are not a few reporters he has dealt with. To be honest, many reporters' professional ability is worrying. The questions they interview lack depth and breadth.

Han Binjiang shyly said: "I don't have enough academic qualifications. I graduated from a technical secondary school. Although I have a bachelor's degree in Chinese language, the bigger newspapers now require a full-time bachelor's degree or above, and I have to be a professional counterpart. More importantly, I It has nothing to do with that, and now I am very satisfied to be a film reporter at "Daily News."

Li Tang nodded, Han Binjiang was right, the reality is like this, it doesn't matter if you don't have a degree, it is generally difficult to get ahead.If you want to stand out, you have to find another way besides a chance from heaven.

He held up his teacup and respected from a distance: "Xiao Han, I still say the same thing, gold always shines. Don't think that my back hurts when I stand and talk, I think you have this ability, and you will be able to come out sooner or later."

Han Binjiang hurriedly toasted with both hands: "Thank you, Mr. Li, for your kind words."

At this moment, he was very moved. Although he did not have a high education background, he had a high self-esteem. Hearing what Li Tang said, he felt like meeting a confidant.Especially the difference in status between the two made him feel moved by recognition.

……

"What, join the crew early? No, Mr. Zhang, I didn't say it was bad before. Wait until the [-]th Golden Week to report to the crew. I still have two movies to be released here to promote."

Li Tang was stunned when he received a call from Zhang Dazi asking to join the group early.

On the other end of the phone, Zhang Dazi said helplessly: "Xiao Li, please help. The plan really can't keep up with the changes, so I won't say anything else, even if I owe you a favor, September 28th, Taohua Island, Zhejiang. Call ahead Call, I'll arrange for someone to pick you up."

"..."

September 28th is a rather embarrassing day. On the one hand, "The Story of Escort" has just been released for two days, which is a critical moment for publicity.On the other hand, "The Third Man" has been moved to release on October 2th, avoiding the impact of "The Mummy [-]", that is to say, the six days from October [-]th to the [-]th are very important for "The Third Man" Time is very precious, success or failure depends on it, we must seize the time and warm up.

But since Zhang Dazi mentioned this, it can be seen that the old man must have encountered some difficulties again.There have been a lot of reports about "Shooting the Condors" during this period, and Li Tang has been paying attention.The biggest news recently is probably that Li Yapeng was injured while riding a horse. The injury was not serious, but it may have left some psychological shadow. This guy has been in the capital for a while to heal his injuries.

In addition, Zhou Xun's admission time has been delayed again and again. At the beginning, it was agreed that the Venice Film Festival would close on September 21th, but then it was delayed until the [-]th, and then delayed again. It is said that the first two days were [-]. Day just entered the group.

It is estimated that the scene in the grassland will not be able to be filmed for a while, so I am anxious to switch to Peach Blossom Island. After all, a day's delay is a day's money!

Li Tang had no choice but to say: "Mr. Zhang, I can't decide this matter. You know Director Qi... You have to let me say hello to Director Qi first, or I won't be able to offend my little arms and legs. .”

Qixin is in charge of the film line, and there is not much intersection with Zhang Dabeard, who is committed to the field of TV dramas.So Lao Zhang said rather domineeringly: "It's okay, just talk about it, if it doesn't work, I'll ask the producer to communicate."

The producer is the Cultural Association, which is at the same level as the General Administration in terms of administrative level, and both accept the leadership of the Ministry of Truth. Lao Zhang really didn't boast.

These days, there are not many ways to promote movies. It is nothing more than participating in a few talk shows on TV stations, and then going to the theater to meet and interact with the audience during the screening, so as to achieve the effect of publicity, which is commonly known as "road show".Another thing is to walk into the university campus and communicate face-to-face with college students every year.

There are many universities in Beijing, and college students are undoubtedly a new force in attracting box office.

Whether participating in talk shows or communicating with audiences and college students, Li Tang has more or less mixed in some private goods, taking the opportunity to promote "The Third Man".

Qi Xin knew that Li Tang personally invested in this movie, and he also knew the difficulties involved.The most important thing is that during this period of time, as the most popular and popular actor in "The Story of Escort", Li Tang worked very hard in publicity, so he turned a blind eye to it and let him play.

Of course, it also has something to do with interests. As a director, Qi Xin has little to do with him at the box office. He pays more attention to the issue of face.It's my first time directing, the box office of the film I made must be decent.

Fortunately, "The Story of Escort" was released for two days, and the box office was gratifying. The capital alone reached one million yuan, which undoubtedly made everyone very excited.Don't underestimate the million-dollar box office in this place. It's only been two days. It is estimated that the total box office is likely to exceed [-] million.

We must know that if the box office exceeds 2000 million this year, it will be able to be in the top ten of the total box office of the year.

It was in this situation that the satisfied Qi Xin nodded and told Li Tang to leave early.
