Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 170

When "Crazy Stone" premiered in Beijing, because the word-of-mouth of the previous small-scale trial screening was very good, it attracted many celebrities and guests to the platform.

Zhang Yuanjun was busy with the graduation ceremony, so he didn't go any more.

In the current film market, apart from Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, there is no director who can make money at the box office.

"The Promise" lost all its money, which damaged director Chen Kaige's golden body, but his status in the world is still stable, and investors still believe in him - there is no other director worthy of trust - I heard that the director is soliciting scripts to prove himself again , I don’t know what kind of story it will be.

Therefore, when "Crazy Stone" won nearly 300 million box office in the first weekend at a cost of 200 million, it was called "no small miracle" by the media.

More good things website bluntly "July is 'crazy' July!"

There are too few movies that can make money now, so every movie that can make money will be touted by the media, and every director that can make money will be followed by investors.

"Crazy Stone" has a huge profit prospect, and it has taught those who opposed Zhang Yuanjun's investment a lesson.

"Really making money?!"

This is the first investment made by the studio, and it is a good sign to make a profit as soon as the doors open.

Zhang Yuanjun didn't blame them. Even China Film didn't dare to bet on "Crazy Stone", so what could others see.

""Stone" can be profitable, so our "Fame" is not a problem." After all, it is his own.

"It's still more than a month away, who can say for sure." Many people remained sober.

The madness of "Stone" made Ning Hao completely elated.

Both "Incense" and "Green Grass" were not sold for money. Before filming "Stone", Ning Hao held back his energy and decided to make a profitable movie.

Following the 200 million in the first weekend, when the second week of "Stone" was released, the total box office had already "as high as" 600 million!

Gundam!

It can be seen how precious a movie that sells money is to the market now.

That is, on the Thursday of the third week of the release of "Stone", the crew of "Rising Fame" officially started a small-scale publicity before the screening.

The first action was to organize a celebrity screening in the Huaxia Screening Hall of Beijing Film Studio.

Celebrities in the industry are invited to watch the movie in advance, including reporters, film critics, directors, and celebrity guests.

The name of Teacher Tian Zhuang is still very useful.

There were more than 30 people sitting in the screening hall.

This kind of movie viewing in the industry does not have so many processes. Director Tian Zhuang acted as the host and said a few words modestly, and then began to show the movie for everyone.

As a comedy, "Rise to Fame" satirized many people.

Journalists paid to write film reviews.

A former actor who makes his living by playing mahjong with his wife.

A famous director who has made bad movies all his life but is proud of it.

He was an unknown person who was beaten every day as a martial artist in Hollywood with a black nose and a swollen face, and returned to China to pretend to be a kung fu superstar.

It can be said that none of the protagonists of "Rise to Fame" is clean.

Zhang Yuanjun is sitting among this group of reporters, actors, directors, and producers, and his heart is still a little beating.

What if they read "Rise to Fame" and think that I wrote about them, and turn against me?
Zheng Qianli satirized Wang Jing, and he didn't care at all, so there's no need to talk about it.

But the irony of the two characters Li Jiahui and Chen Xiaoda is a bit too much.

However, the irony in "Being Famous" is not profound. It is not so much irony as "he has done this before".

Li Jiahui received money to write film reviews, but this did not affect his bravery and wisdom in solving cases.

Zheng Qianli made bad movies, but he also protected Li Jiahui and Guan Jingnian at the same time.

Lu Ziye wasn't bad at all, and in the end he took them out of the country and sponsored them to make a movie.

It can be said that the irony of them in "Rise to Fame" does not run through the whole film, and these ironic things are only the surface of the characters.

People with a little experience and a heart should not be bothered by the irony of a comedy movie... right?

During the 2-hour viewing process, more than 30 guests laughed one after another.

As soon as the feature film ended and the subtitles came out, there was applause in the corner of the projection hall, and then the whole audience burst into applause.

Teacher Tian stood up from the front row, took the microphone and smiled at his colleagues: "Actually, the movie is not over yet, there is more to come."

"Hahaha." There was a burst of laughter.

It really corresponds to the sentence in the movie "When the subtitles are finished at the end, I still have content."

This is Zhang Yuanjun's idea. When everyone walks on the streets of Vietnam, the feature film is over.

The easter egg fragment is the original hanging photo.

Until the final egg was played, the applause sounded again.

"This movie doesn't look like Mr. Tian's style at all."

"This book was written by that student Zhang Yuanjun."

"No wonder you said so."

Discussions have already begun in the audience.

Because it is a trial screening in the industry, there will be no formal exchanges and interviews on site.

It's just that everyone will do some simple communication at the self-service tea party after the screening.

Zhang Yuanjun's nervousness is no less than that of director Tian Zhuang. This is Tian Zhuang's first commercial film and his first work to enter the big screen. The significance is self-evident.

"Your film is interesting." Xia Yu was eating a small piece of watermelon, "It's very interesting."

"I'm afraid that film critics and reporters won't buy it." Zhang Yuanjun sipped his tea, "I said that about him in the movie, how can he say something nice to me?"

"This is also a problem." Xia Yu said.

Over there, the famous film critic Zhou Liming was joking with Teacher Xie Xiaojing.

"This movie looks good, not worse than the current "Stone".

"Then Xiao Zhang is really from the Department of Acting? Not from the Department of Literature?"

"I just graduated from the acting department this year." Xie Xiaojing smiled.

"The book is solidly written, and it doesn't look like a novice at all." Zhou Liming praised.

"He was still worried that you would mind his sarcasm."

"I think irony is good and fun. If comedy starts to sing its praises, why bother with comedy? If you can't even swallow this bit of irony, then don't do it in this circle." Zhou Liming did a few Ten years of film reviews, I've seen everything.

The self-service tea party lasted for half an hour, and after half an hour, the guests began to leave in an orderly manner.

"The movie was great."

"You did a great job, come on."

"We will report it as it is."

"The performance of the screening is definitely not bad."

"I'll invite you when I'm free."

The magic is that most of the film critics and reporters have received red envelopes from the crew.

How can it be called a benefit fee, this is called a carriage fee, and you can call it a tea fee.

This is a necessary publicity expenditure for the film.

That's the rule in this business.

Zhang Yuanjun heard a lot of good things at the tea party just now, and his heart became more at ease.

After today's preview, Zhang Yuanjun went home to rest.

This Sunday, there will be a small-scale preview of "Rising Fame" in Beijing.

Next week, there will also be a media screening in Shanghai.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yuanjun rushed to Shanghai to prepare for the launch of "Animal World".
