Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 408

"Never Ending" was made into a approved film, and LeTV did not have any additional domestic advertising fees for Zhang Yuanjun. Yu Qing Yuli, this movie has nothing to do with him in China.

LeTV's announcement of a scheduled release at this time is of course riding on the popularity of the National Day release, which has nothing to do with Zhang Yuanjun.

But the bad thing is that LeTV has a wrong idea.

In the past, there was no precedent for a film being approved for publicity.

To put it bluntly, film approval is a big gamble, and few manufacturers will invest too much publicity and distribution resources in film approval.

But LeTV is different.

乐视赌性更大，他们想靠张元君三个字搏1亿2的票房——《永无止境》的买断价格是4300万，国内票房少于1亿2乐视就亏本。

After the official announcement, LeTV first invested a lot of advertising online, especially on its own LeTV website. Of course, they also did not forget to buy publicity and distribution in forums such as Weibo and Tieba.

Offline, according to what the distribution directors of companies such as Guangxian and Huayi communicated with Zhang Yuanjun, LeTV broke industry rules and even took the initiative to increase the rebates to theaters in order to secure film schedules for "Never Ending."

The months from October to November after the National Day have always been deserted. LeTV undoubtedly wanted to do this to get more box office during these two months.

This has nothing to do with Zhang Yuanjun, he is still immersed in the filming of the crew.

However, LeTV’s positive and enthusiastic publicity was in sharp contrast to Zhang Yuanjun’s calm attitude.

LeTV's viral publicity portrayed Zhang Yuanjun as a ruthless person.

Many fans are wondering why Zhang Yuanjun himself does not promote "Never Ending".

If you don’t have time to go offline during filming, then why don’t you post a promotional message on Weibo?
Didn't see it?
However, Zhang Yuanjun’s Weibo also forwarded a public service announcement 2 hours after LeTV announced the release date.

Zhang Yuanjun really didn't know about this. He hadn't logged on to Weibo for more than half a month. The studio had been taking care of it.

The studio didn't do anything wrong. When LeTV bought the film, it didn't ask for Zhang Yuanjun to promote it, nor did it pay for the announcement. Why is it giving LeTV free publicity now?
But the problem now is that LeTV actively promoted "Never Ending", and some fans began to question Zhang Yuanjun's lack of dedication and disrespect for domestic audiences.

"After breaking into Hollywood, my wings have become stronger, and I can no longer look down on the domestic box office."

This doubt did not cause a public outcry, and the studio came forward.

But the studio doesn't care, Zhang Yuanjun's fans will.

A well-known fan of Zhang Yuanjun published an article to educate fans on what film approval means.

"Approving a film means buying it out. Good or bad sales have nothing to do with the actors or the production company. It is reasonable for Yuan Jun not to promote it."

Later, I don’t know where the news came from, saying that LeTV did not sign a promotion contract with Zhang Yuanjun after buying out "Never Ending".

"In terms of business, LeTV has not paid the artists the publicity fees they deserve. Artists can't promote themselves for free.

"Furthermore, I also found out a piece of breaking news. My girlfriend works in a jewelry store. She received Liu Yifei's mother a few days ago. Liu's mother asked for a set of customized gold jewelry, including Dragon and Phoenix, Qin and Se, and Hundred Years of Good Jewelry. Wait, it seems that the two of them have put their wedding on the agenda."

In the conscience of heaven and earth, this big fan is really not instigated by the studio. No matter how stupid the studio is, they will not reveal the marriage news of the two in advance.

In the past two years, fans have been urging the two to get married quickly. What this fan said did not trigger a big reaction among the fan group. After all, he didn’t even have a photo of Liu’s mother’s custom-made jewelry. He had to be believed by others if he had red lips and white teeth. ?

However, this fan's words did spread, mainly in the promotion of "Never Ending". Some fans believed that LeTV wanted to use Zhang Yuanjun to promote him.

It’s hard to guess what LeTV’s thinking is.

But they did contact the studio after the schedule was confirmed and wanted to make up for the tickets.

But the studio told LeTV that Zhang Yuanjun has no time this year after finishing filming "Her".

However, LeTV still wisely signed the online promotion contract. They did want to use public opinion to blackmail Zhang Yuanjun for free promotion, but they did not expect that the people at Zhang Yuanjun's studio were so ruthless and refused to participate in the promotion despite the reputation of being unprofessional.

Zhang Yuanjun can still withstand this kind of infamy, but all the movies LeTV has made in the past few years have been hit by the public. They want to use Zhang Yuanjun's fame to make a comeback. Even if they don't make a comeback, at least the numbers will look better.

So they had to pay for it.

When signing the contract, LeTV did not forget to inquire about the news and asked the staff if the two were really preparing for a wedding.

But the staff was very arrogant: "This is their private life, it has nothing to do with work, and we don't know either." The only thing to guard against is the media taking the opportunity to hype it up.

Zhang Yuanjun’s work is back on track.

On the mountains of Xidu, a group of people crowded into the director's tent. Xu Anhua read the material over and over again, spread his hands, and whispered softly: "We are finished."

"Okay-" The tent immediately remembered the cheers.

Filming started in July and was completed in October. "Her" was finally completed after three months of filming.

"Come on, let's take a group photo." In the woods of Xidu, more than 20 people from the crew stood together and shouted happily: "It's finished!"

Among the cast of "Her", only Zhang Yuanjun came to Xidu, and the rest of the actors had finished filming and left the group before.

That night, the crew had a Northeastern-style closing banquet, and it felt quite fresh to eat cross-legged on the kang.

At noon the next day, Zhang Yuanjun returned to the capital and went to have dinner with his mother-in-law.

Liu Xiaoli talked about the preparations for the wedding. The specific situation is that except for the date, nothing else has been decided.

The wedding venue hasn't even been decided yet.

The first disagreement arose between Liu Xiaoli and Zhang's parents was the location. Zhang's father wanted to go back to Gan Province to hold the show. Liu Xiaoli had no objection to this, but she proposed to hold another show in Jiangcheng, which was opposed by the Zhang family.

Zhang Yuanjun didn't want to hold two weddings, but he couldn't refute Liu Xiaoli's intention, so he said, "Qianxi and I will discuss what to do."

"When are you flying to America?"

"The day after tomorrow, I'll go over to see her after I've arranged my domestic affairs." Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile, "Did you really go to get jewelry?"

"Don't worry about it." Liu Xiaoli smiled.

"Keep your own money. Sissi doesn't often wear gold, so giving it to her is a waste."

"Whether she wears it or not is her business. As a mother, I have to give it to her."

The son-in-law teased his mother-in-law again: "It seems you have quite a lot of money. How much pension money have you saved?"

The mother-in-law didn't accept his move at all and said with a smile: "You want to trick me? I still have enough money to raise one or two grandchildren."

"It seems that a large amount of money has been saved." Zhang Yuanjun smiled.

"Are you still going to take Xiao Shu to the United States?"

"Yes, Sissi wants me to take her there with her."

"Xiao Shu can't go. She's filming and can't even get time off."

"Okay," Zhang Yuanjun thought for a moment and said, "As long as the bridesmaid is chosen, it doesn't matter if she goes or not. We'll wait until Sissi returns to China."

Shu Chang couldn't go, but Tang Yan had to go. She took a week's leave from the crew of "Gone with the Wind".

"By the way, Yang Mi will also go to the United States to meet Sissy this time." Liu Xiaoli added.

"Huh? What is she going to do?"

"She is also a bridesmaid, didn't Yifei tell you?"

"No." Zhang Yuanjun said, "A busy person like her still has time to go to the United States with me?"

"Don't say that. She only has some time this month and will join the team next month." Liu Xiaoli said.

"Okay, one can take two or pull them together. I'll just take them together."

Zhang Yuanjun left his mother-in-law's place and returned to his own home to catch up on his sleep without saying much.
