Chapter 335: Shock, Doubt, and Screening Arrangements (Want to subscribe please)
Lin Xing is indeed so handsome.
Many times, handsomeness is a precious asset for popular actors. Many times, as long as your face is still there, fans will pay. You have to know that fans of some ugly popular actors still pay.
Otherwise, why haven’t today’s fans tasted good food?
Let’s not talk about Wang Ruo’an’s era of gods and gods fighting, but let’s talk about Lin Xing’s time twelve years ago. Wasn’t there still a bunch of handsome men and beautiful women? ? ?
Even Lin Xingchang was ridiculed for being handsome because of his illiteracy, but other people actually have good business abilities.
Take the current 85 Flowers as an example. Compared with the big flowers, they can’t win awards for their business capabilities. It’s not an exaggeration to even say they were beaten. After all, they are both ambitious and capable.
Comparatively speaking, among the 85 flowers, An Yifeng is the only one with really good acting skills and ability, while the others have relatively weak acting skills and abilities.
But what’s the old saying?
It all relies on the support of her peers, just like 85 Flowers is quite strong compared to those behind her, but even for 85 Flowers Yang Tian whose acting skills are average, her masterpieces and abilities actually crush the current generation of the 90s and even the 00s. The flow is small.
Otherwise, the current entertainment industry is worse than the last, and there are too few people who can maintain their true intentions. Most people are trapped in it, and then chase fame and fortune, and finally they are immersed in it and cannot extricate themselves.
Although people were saying that the era of fandom has passed as early as 2018, even now, fandom has not dissipated, and even everything can be fandom.
Even cross talk talkers are in the fan circle, and opera singers are also in the fan circle.
Many people just want to cut the fan circle's leeks, just like a crosstalk talker going to a concert. Anyway, if the fan circle pays for it, then it doesn't matter what they do.
Just think about it, every ugly guy is praised as a handsome guy by fans, and even fans clamor to give birth to monkeys. If a handsome guy like Lin Xing really builds a fandom, what kind of 'prosperity' will it be?
But for artists who don't want to be trapped in the fandom, being "handsome" may become a constraint.
Just like the original actor Wang Ruoan, in order to get rid of his handsomeness, he directly made some movies with vicious villains, just to compete with his acting skills.
There is also Ren Ming, a model worker in the film industry today. When he debuted, he really captivated thousands of girls with his martial arts dramas, but later on, Ren Ming tanned himself in order to transform.
Not only Ren Ming, but also Zhang Yang, who was just as tender as Chu Shui when he debuted, turned out to be a tough guy now.
Therefore, if you don't want to be a fandom, if you have your own pursuit of acting skills, you will definitely try your best to make yourself look bad.
But this kind of tossing is a compliment, not like some male actors do to modify their faces. If you don’t believe it, why do some actors in the uncle circle have such stiff faces now that they can’t look at them? ? ?
In the same way, Lin Xing also wants to get rid of his handsomeness. He has turned to the drama school since "Bad Kid". As for the game "Secret Lurker", Lin Xing is still a handsome idol, but in "The Deathstroke" In "Who Calls", Lin Xing has begun to become more stable, and even let his acting skills speak for himself.
Why does Lin Xing like the drama "Always On" so much? He doesn't like it because of Xie Qiang. He really thinks that the role of Hong Yi is good, especially the changes in life and even the misery in middle age and old age.
Acting is a challenge for Lin Xing, but he likes this challenge. He is still young. As long as he goes higher step by step, he will become the tallest one sooner or later.
When the Venice star was interviewed again and talked about why he wanted to play "Killing Arden", he said the same thing.
He likes challenges.
Especially the script of "Killing Arden" is so good. As an actor, Lin Xing feels that if he misses such a script, he will regret it in the future.
Regarding the box office, Lin Xing said that he would just let it happen. He believed that "Killing Arden" was nominated for Venice Horizon and won the best picture, which is a kind of recognition.
Of course, Lin Xing finally said that he hopes to gain the audience's approval. Fortunately, this movie will soon be released to everyone.
Here, Lin Xing and An Yifeng finished the interview and then set off for Toronto together.
In addition to the crew of "Killing Arden", the editor-in-chief of "Movie House" Awu and his team also went to Toronto for interviews and reports.
On the plane, Lin Xing and A Wu had a good chat.
"Axing, why don't you promote more prizes??"
Awu asked the same question as Liang Yi: "In my opinion, there is actually no need to rush to release this movie this year. Sundance will be in January next year, Berlin in February and Cannes in May, not to mention these years. There are more and more film festivals in our country. Since this is a movie with no extravagant expectations at the box office, it might as well win a wave of awards..."
Lin Xing said with a smile: "It's impossible to say that I don't care about awards. No actor doesn't care about awards, but I won't do anything just to win awards. I filmed "Killing Arden" because I liked the script. At first, even if this movie won awards, almost no one took it seriously..."
Dai An on the side also said: "A Xing is right. When I took this script around to solicit investment, no one really wanted it. Who among you would be willing to use the same script that made two movies in a row? At that time Not to mention the Venice Film Festival, I even thought that as long as this movie can be released, I would be satisfied.”
Lin Xing nodded lightly: "So, before the filming of a movie starts and after it starts, there are two different things. And in my opinion, instead of fighting for a prize that has a low chance, it is better to meet the audience as soon as possible. We have to eat one bite at a time. This movie was not intended to become famous internationally and then suddenly win multiple international film festival awards..."
At this point, Lin Xing laughed: "This is not making a movie. It requires foreshadowing, turning point, climax, or even so-called comedy."
Listening to what Lin Xing said, Awu said nothing more, but he said: "But now I'm afraid there will be another wave of discussion in the country."
You know, the Venice Film Festival's Horizon section is one of the two official competitions. Although the participants will not compete for the Golden Lion Award, this one will be selected by the judges for the best film.
Now the film "Killing Arden" has been shortlisted for the Horizon category and directly won the best picture. This honor is beyond the reach of many films.
Awu's "Movie House" magazine had already reported on it, and other media magazines such as Zhalang and Entertainment had already started reporting on it before boarding the plane.
In fact, Awu was right.
At this time, many people in the country were indeed a little stunned.
Originally, everyone thought that the two films "Killing Arden" and "Why Live" were both shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, which was already very strong, especially in Venice, where Lin Xing, Liang Yi, and An Yifeng seemed to be together. Deathstroke party.
In any case, these two literary films have been recognized by the Venice Film Festival.
Who would have expected that both films would win awards?
"It's too strong. At first, so many people were badmouthing Lin Xing and even thought the movie "Killing Arden" was rubbish. But what happened? The movie really won the 'Best Picture' award in Venice."
"Le, Lin Xing is really awesome. I really didn't expect "Killing Arden" to win an award in Venice."
"That's right, I didn't expect this one. I really thought it would be good for "Killing Arden" to be shortlisted."
"Awesome, Lin Xing is awesome, and Liang Yi is also awesome. You know, "Why Live" is also Liang Yi's first movie."
……
"I just think Zhen Zhuang is awesome. Zhen Zhuang actually won the best director. You know, this is even more difficult to win. Usually, this category is not even awarded."
"Hahaha, Zhen Zhuang has won it in Berlin and Cannes, so it's not surprising that he won it in Venice."
"There's nothing wrong with that, but I never expected that both films would win awards."
……
You must know that everyone has been discussing the issue of "Reshaping Actors" these days, because after Lao Zhong mentioned the star content, Lu Lu started to fight with Lao Zhong.
Maybe because Lu Lu was scolded enough and he was accused many times, Lu Lu is now quite tough and he just started to argue with Lao Zhong.
Lao Zhong has a venomous tongue, and she can basically respond to Lu Lu with all kinds of venom. At the same time, Lao Zhong even listed some data on why Lin Xing has stars.
But Lu Lu is reasonable and unreasonable. Anyway, everything about Lu Lu revolves around "Lin Xing can't do it". He is a typical process of saying the results first and then using the results to reverse the process.
There is a saying that Lu Lu now has rich experience in Black Star, and he can even be completely at a disadvantage.
As a result, at this time, news came out that Lin Xing was filming in Venice.
When "Killing Arden" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, Lu Lu was already in the dark. He sincerely felt that the fact that films often go abroad to participate in various awards can only prove one thing.
That's why this movie doesn't work.
If you don’t believe it, take a look at those people who win awards from the three majors every day. How is their domestic box office performance? ?
They all belong to the niche, even to the highbrow.
In Lu Lu's view, he had stood with Kong Shan before, and he sincerely believed that Kong Shan was right. Although Kong Shan was defeated by Lin Xing now, Lu Lu still supported Kong Shan.
He feels that "Killing Arden" is nothing more than spending money to promote it, and then maintaining Lin Xing's status.
Just like some actors often go to red carpets abroad, there are also some actors who can't get away no matter how hard they walk on the red carpet. They take all kinds of photos and then spread it to China as "so-and-so walks on the red carpet and is enthusiastically sought after."
To put it bluntly, it is just to deceive the domestic entertainment audience.
Lao Zhong directly named Lin Xing. The same is true. This time at the Venice Film Festival, "Killing Arden" has been rated as the best film, and various drafts have also been released. As for Lin Xing Studio, there are still The announcement of "Killing Arden" has also begun to take action.
But even so, Lao Zhong still thinks this is hype.
It's a hype to build momentum for the movie.
"I always feel that when an actor succeeds by taking shortcuts, he will definitely no longer be down-to-earth. In this regard, I suggest Lin Xing learn from Liang Yi. You see, Liang Yi also made his first film after "Death Knell", but They are down-to-earth and have not made any hype, and at the same time, they are not as urgent as "Killing Arden" and have directly scheduled the release this month..."
Lu Lu learned his lesson this time. He is a favorite. After all, although the Venice movie "Killing Arden" won the best picture, everyone still recognized the quality of the movie "Why Live". , the reason is very simple, because Zhen Zhuang has this ability, and he has never failed.
On the contrary, look at Diane. Diane has really never been successful. Two consecutive movies were complete flops.
Therefore, everyone thinks "Why Live" is better.
It is difficult to judge whether these remarks were really made by passers-by or fabricated by internet trolls, but to be honest, many people think that Lu Lu’s Weibo post is relatively neutral.
Because Liang Yi's popularity among passers-by is stronger, and Liang Yi's image has always been very good. What's more, as I said before, although Lin Xing almost suppressed Liang Yi in "Death Knell", the relationship between the two is still pretty good.
Therefore, when "Why Live" and "Killing Arden" both won awards, everyone just thought it was a meeting at the top of Lin Liang.
But this person is afraid of stirring up trouble.
Take Lu Lu for example this time, his analysis is quite logical, because for the industry, this literary and artistic film does not have much box office to begin with. Why do you, Lin Xing, want to release it so early? ?
Don’t you just want to hype or market your own persona? ?
After all, many people sincerely think that the role of A-Ding is a breakthrough for Lin Xing. Otherwise, many people would not have failed to recognize Lin Xing as the sharp brother before.
Lu Lu did not forget to say at the end: "Can you all predict how much box office "Killing Arden" will have? I think you, Lin Xing, are top-notch after all, and you are so awesome that you already have stars, so It shouldn’t be justified if the box office is less than 100 million.”
"6666, what are Lu Luqian thinking? If this kind of literary film can gross over million, then I really think Lin Xing has a system."
"What are you thinking?? The best film in Venice can take over 2000 million at the box office? Think about the previous literary films that won both major awards abroad, and they didn't even get million."
"Movies are different from TV series. Look at the so-called famous and influential actors. Sometimes they don't even earn 1000 million to participate in movies."
"Yes, fans need to pay real money to watch a movie. This is difficult. Why are so-called tens of millions of fans useless??"
……
Lu Lu's yin and yang charisma has achieved results, and the movie really wants to succeed in all aspects. An actor just wants to support the box office, let alone others, even Zhang Yang can't do it.
If you don’t believe me, just look at the box office results of Zhang Yang’s guest appearances or starring in other people’s movies, and then look at the box office results of Zhang Yang’s directing and starring films.
Also, even with Sharp, his "popularity" is only suitable for movies in which he really dominates the male lead, and many other box-offices can be said to be hard to describe.
As far as the trailer of "Killing Arden" has been released now, it is definitely a proper literary film, and others can't understand it, but people like Lu Lu or other people in the industry can still understand it.
For this kind of so-called literary film that seems to show the so-called suffering, frustration, depression, and even boring, how can he get high box office? ? ?
It was precisely because of this that Lu Lu could dare to say this.
Then many people also ridiculed in the comment area, and said, "Didn't you say that Lin Xingxing's fortune is astronomical?" So what if the box office exceeds 100 million? ? '.
Lin Xing Studio.
Ding Chunling looked at the crowd and laughed: "It seems that keeping Lu Lu as an electronic pet is a good thing. It can help us increase the popularity every time."
Sister Dao said with some worry: "But will this affect the upcoming movie?"
"What's the impact?"
Ding Chunling said nonchalantly: "Originally, this movie has been considered a hit on the street, so what else can it affect?"
Ding Chunling had discussed this matter with Meng Yan.
The top priority is to allow the audience to enter the cinema. Regardless of whether the audience criticizes or ridicules it, at least it is still popular now.
Whether it's a movie or a TV series, what everyone really worries about is always being ignored.
Just like the movie "Up Spring Mountain" back then, it was obviously scolded as shit by everyone, but so what? ?
Many people go there with the mentality that I want to go to the cinema to see how bad it is.
Then "Up Spring Mountain" ended up taking 200 million at the box office.
Therefore, Meng Yan is currently doing promotional work. On the one hand, she needs to find buzz, that is, to find the selling points of "Killing Arden", such as Lin Xing experiencing a big change in life, and today's best film in Venice. .
These are all selling points.
As for the topic, Lu Lu just gave him a topic.
"Killing Arden" is Lin Xing's first film, and this film has several factors that will make it a box office hit.
The first is Diane, everyone knows this.
Next is An Yifeng. This An Yifeng has been box office poison for ten years.
If we add a few more, then Xin Hui can be counted as one. Xin Hui suffered a huge loss in his last movie, and all the other projects he invested in were sold out, except for "The Hidden Lurker".
But do you think "Killing Arden" can be compared to "Survivor"?
If Lin Xing makes a love story, and then he and An Yifeng act together, then maybe people will still pay for it.
But this is a fucking art film, and Lin Xing looks so sloppy, what do you think is possible? ? ?
Who in the audience wants to see a sharp guy fall in love? ? ?
Therefore, these are the focus of today's online discussion. Of course, Ding Chunling and Meng Yan are quite happy about these.
Because this kind of popularity will definitely prove the discussion attention of this "Killing Aden".
As long as the box office on the first day can be slightly better, then there won't be any problem.
Especially Meng Yan, who also asked the team to watch the movie when it was released. They didn't say whether they thought the movie was good or not, but Lin Xing was crazy enough.
Going crazy might also be a selling point.
If you want to succeed, first go crazy.
Isn’t this what everyone often says? ? ?
"Sister Ling, I think the second trailer can be released."
Meng Yan was also watching the situation on the Internet. After fermenting for a long time, she called Ding Chunling.
"Okay, I will also arrange publicity here later."
Ding Chunling nodded slightly and said: "I also think it is indeed time to send it out."
Half an hour later, while everyone was still discussing that the movie "Killing Arden" would definitely hit the streets, the official video of "Killing Arden" released its second trailer.
[Look forward].
That’s the purpose of this trailer.
Because Lin Xing and Meng Yan have discussed the issue of promotion. We should not always promote sad things, because this kind of things may be more touching, but the audience may not like it.
Reality is hard enough, why do we need to watch movies to make it harder for ourselves? ?
If you want a good box office, you can't just be highbrow.
And for Lin Xing, "Killing Aden" is not all about mourning. He just shows a sense of powerlessness, and this sense of powerlessness is sometimes inseparable from the times.
But if you directly attribute Arden's failure to the times in the trailer, that would be incorrect.
So Lin Xing really feels that the people in "Killing Aden" are people.
What if someone could care about Aden, what if someone could talk to him sincerely when Adin is really on the verge of going crazy?
but.
Everyone just looked at it as a joke.
Because of this, Adin finally fell into darkness forever. He no longer wanted to face reality.
"At any time, no matter what you experience, no matter what you suffer, it will pass. Look forward, don't look back."
This is what the official V of "Killing Arden" said.
Compared to the first trailer, this trailer seems to have more positive energy.
The trailer is 3 minutes in total and still has Adin's narration.
"My name is Ading. I once wanted to be a dancer. I like dancing. I often dance with my brother.
But that year, my brother was tied to a tree by his father. Then, my brother was gone.
I never dare to dance again.
...
In 3 minutes, the trailer was narrated with Adin's narration.
Especially the last scene of A Ding and An Yifeng holding hands, accompanied by the sound from the speaker.
"All this will pass. Looking forward, a beautiful new life is waving to you. Let's welcome the new era together!"
...
Lin Xing supported An Yifeng, while An Yifeng supported her slightly bulging belly.
it is more than words.
...
"Here we go, this trailer looks pretty good???"
"Yes, I think it's good too. If Lin Xing and An Yifeng live happily together in the end, I can still accept it."
"Anyway, I really think this is a movie I have to watch."
...
Suddenly, more and more people were discussing this movie.
At the same time, Lin Xing also arrived in Toronto, and then he called Ding Chunling.
"okay, I get it."
Lin Xing nodded slightly at this time and said.
The first wave of publicity in China has already begun, which is normal after all.
Think about it, "Killing Arden" is only a few days away from its official release.
In the next few days, Lin Xing felt quite relaxed.
Whether in Venice or Toronto, Lin Xing does not come here with the mentality of winning awards and publicity.
He is really just taking a break from his busy schedule and making his presence felt at these two major film festivals.
Therefore, Lin Xing, An Yifeng and Lin Miaoyin walked around a bit, at least visiting once and treating it as a trip.
Compared to Lin Xing, An Yifeng's popularity is indeed high.
They are always recognized by Chinese people when they play, and some foreigners even want to take photos with An Yifeng.
What is nationality?
This is nationality.
And when walking on the red carpet, An Yifeng was obviously the most beautiful one.
This is no different than in Venice.
However, during the interview, An Yifeng directly brought the topic to Lin Xing.
"I took the initiative to find Lin Xing for this movie, but I was afraid of causing harm to the movie. After all, all the movies I made failed..."
An Yifeng said: "So Lin Xing came to me, so I came. As for you asking me why I accepted this movie? I think you might as well ask Lin Xing why he came to me?"
So the media asked Lin Xing why he was looking for An Yifeng.
In everyone's opinion, Lin Xing must say something about An Yifeng's acting skills.
As a result, Lin Xing said: "Because An An doesn't want to be paid. You also know that the preparation of our movie is not easy..."
No one expected that Lin Xing would be sold out immediately.
Then when everyone believed what he said, Lin Xing changed the topic: "How can our crew be poor? With Xin Hui, will I still be short of money? This is mainly because..."
have to.
Lin Xing just made a little joke.
A bit poor.
The Toronto Film Festival lasts for 11 days in total, and a film often has two chances to be screened.
Lin Xing and Diane met Locke. This time, "Killing Arden" was selected thanks to Locke.
This is also because of Zu Ming's phone call.
Locke said: "You don't need to thank me. It's your movie that's good. You have three chances to screen it. I wish you good luck."
Obviously, "Killing Arden" was really favored by Locke, so he simply gave it such a good opportunity.
However, Lin Xing did not stay here until the end. He rushed back on September 9th, along with An Yifeng and Lin Miaoke.
Diane stayed here to watch for another two days.
...
Ninh Binh Studio.
"Look at it this way, do you think this "Killing Arden" is very good??"
Last time Zhen Zhuang told Ning Ping that Lin Xing was quite good. He felt that Lin Xing was quite suitable for one of Ning Ping's chosen male protagonists.
But Ning Ping only thinks Lin Xing is too handsome.
Because for a director, especially a director like Ning Ping, he really doesn’t want to use actors who are too handsome.
He only wanted actors with good acting skills.
But later on, Ning Ping finally got to know him, and then he happened to ask a few people about Lin Xing's situation.
What surprised Ning Ping was that so many people praised Lin Xing, not only for his acting skills, but also for his professionalism.
Ning Ping had never read any of Lin Xing's works before, so this time he simply decided to read "Evil Child" and "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in which Lin Xing regarded Magnolia as an emperor.
Just okay.
Ning Ping felt that Lin Xing was fine in a TV series, but if he acted in a movie under such circumstances, especially the role he was looking for, then he might not be able to do it.
So, Ning Ping let it go.
Unexpectedly, Zhen Zhuang came to him today and talked about Lin Xing.
"Brother, have you watched the movie "Killing Arden"? The movie will be released soon. You can watch it then."
When Zhen Zhuang heard that Ning Ping felt that Lin Xing was not good enough, he said directly.
Obviously, Zhen Zhuang feels that he dare not say that Lin Xing's acting skills can be invincible at the same time, but at least he is very malleable.
And Ning Ping is good at polishing actors, so isn’t this just right? ?
"Brother, I think it's pretty good."
After Zhen Zhuang listened to Ning Ping asking him about the movie, he said directly: "Did you know? Lin Xing has been experiencing life for more than three months. Just this alone made him... It’s worth a high look from me…”
Zhen Zhuang did not listen to what Lin Xing said. After all, he had cooperated more with Liang Yi, so he directly listened to what Lao Liang said.
You must know that when filming "For Whom the Bell Tolls", Lin Xing really impressed Liang Yi with his personal charm.
Not to mention later.
Liang Yi knew that Lin Xing went to experience life, but Liang Yi never expected that Lin Xing would experience life so crazily.
If it wasn't for him seeing Brother Sharp or Lin Xing, or even if Liang Yi hadn't known Lin Xing, he really felt that Lin Xing was his own hype.
So Liang Yi told Zhen Zhuang the situation, and then Zhen Zhuang told Ning Ping the situation.
"Looking at it this way, this actor is quite motivated."
Ning Ping thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait until the movie "Killing Arden" is released. I'll take a look and then talk."
Lin Xing actually didn't know this. He returned directly to Lin Xing's studio as soon as he landed.
"Meng Yan means to cancel the screening."
In Lin Xing's studio, Ding Chunling said directly: "First of all, the time is too short. If the screening may directly cause the collapse of word-of-mouth, then the gain will be outweighed by the loss. In addition, the current public opinion and publicity on the Internet are actually It is beneficial to us, so we only need to let the first wave of audiences enter the cinema as much as possible. This is more cost-effective than order screening..."
Meng Yan on the side also said: "Yes, the main reason is that screening is often the most advantageous to rush to schedule films, but it may also be killed by direct screening."
This is the truth.
After all, what the industry considers word-of-mouth is often not the same thing as what audiences think of.
There is really no way around this.
There are not a few people who make mistakes in pointing.
Many movies go to screenings confidently, but then they directly fall into the ditch.
"Okay, let's release it as normal."
Lin Xing thought for a while and said: "Has the city for the road show been decided? I will return to the crew of "Always On" soon to check the shooting time, so I can follow the whole process in the first few stops..."
You must know that there are many factors that determine the box office of a movie when it is released. In addition to the quality of the movie itself, the actors, and the director, there are also other factors.
For example, if you think about the schedule, if you fail to choose the box office schedule of many movies, you may directly go to the street. There are too many in this regard.
There are also movies like Dian Ying. Meng Yan just mentioned that there are several movies that have been given away by Dian Ying. They are all big productions and the actors are quite famous, but they just can’t do it.
Let’s not talk about the far away, but let’s talk about the nearby Wang Ruo’an, who made an autobiographical movie “This Best Actor Doesn’t Want to Work”, which was originally intended to gain reputation through screenings, but as a result, the reputation collapsed immediately after the screening.
Some people in the industry commented that this movie is a self-deprecating movie. It wants to satirize the entertainment industry but fails to do it completely. It seems to be an autobiography, but it basically does not mock itself.
The most important thing is that everyone thought it was a comedy movie, but it turned out to look like a literary film, but it wasn't very literary either.
It can only be said that Wang Ruoan and the director of this film were moved.
Then they are full of confidence that this movie will definitely be liked by countless people after it is screened, and it can even set a box office record for the movie.
So it was scheduled for the Spring Festival and released in advance.
The result was that he died before even waiting for the release.
This time "Killing Arden" won the best film at the Venice Film Festival, and more importantly, it also received numerous praises at the Toronto Film Festival.
But it was precisely because of this that Meng Yan was worried.
"Our company has previously promoted a literary film. The film won many awards at the Cannes Film Festival. We also thought about screening it, but it ended up with numerous negative reviews..."
This is why Meng Yan chose not to screen it.
Because many movies are one thing for the industry and another for the audience. Of course, some people cannot exclude the possibility of praising them.
Think about how many movies were released before those in the industry and some movie reviewers took to social platforms and yelled: "Domestic entertainment can be saved, movies can be saved, this movie has a minimum guarantee of 30 billion."
Then when it was finally released, the box office of "Being Naked" didn't even reach 3000 million.
Lin Xing is naturally very aware of this matter. He always feels that whether it is an actor or a director, it is a good thing to have confidence in his own work, but more importantly, he must respect the audience and the market.
You can't just say that the audience doesn't know how to appreciate it, or call them trash just because this movie is a hit.
Isn't it because the audience doesn't know how to appreciate it because great directors like you don't guide the audience? ? ?
Therefore, even though Lin Xing liked the movie "Killing Arden" very much, he was not so arrogant that he wanted everything to be his own way.
Just leave professional matters to professionals.
What Lin Xing has to do is to cooperate with the movie's promotion. At the same time, the most critical factor that affects the movie's box office is the road show.
Nowadays, when many movies are released, they think about going to some live broadcast room to sell tickets, and some variety shows to promote, but in fact, the real or fastest effect is the road show.
Because road shows are almost in close contact with the audience, and more importantly, if every road show simply follows the process and walks with the audience, it will definitely be meaningless.
Just like when some illiterate artists are asked by the audience how they feel about playing this role, these illiterate artists just say: "Well, ah, it's good, it has grown a lot for me..."
To put it bluntly, there is no way this will have any effect.
The real thing is that when Zhang Yang directed and starred in the film "The Charge", he almost kept running road shows, and it can be said that he managed to beat the film schedule and box office.
Because Zhang Yang is sincere enough, he always interacts with everyone. When being interviewed, he talked about how he made this film and how he filmed it.
This is an effective roadshow. Roadshows can directly extend the exposure of topics and news.
But there is one thing to say, every road show stop is actually quite painful for actors, and it can even make actors feel quite tired in many cases.
It depends on how to do it.
Next, the road show of "Killing Addin" can be produced, but the main thing is to work on the premiere first. I have to say that Meng Yan is quite good at arranging films. She directly helped "Killing Addin" to 10 % of the film arrangement.
This film arrangement is already quite good.
It can be said that the first day was a life and death battle for "Killing Arden".
Theater chains are very realistic. They only look at the box office and revenue.
If the attendance rate of "Killing Arden" on the first day can be good, then the film schedule will definitely increase further, but if the attendance rate on the first day is not good, then there will be no increase in the film schedule.
No one’s face is of any use.
Lin Xing knows this, and the premiere of "Killing Arden" is currently scheduled for the 14th, and the premiere venue will invite some people to watch the film.
Normally, those invited to watch the movie must be big names in the industry or people with whom they have good relationships. Then, after the movie is over, there will be a discussion, and then many stars will accept a series of interviews. .
This is normal movie promotion.
"Stop doing this."
Lin Xing thought for a while and said: "This kind of industry that invites celebrity artists to the platform is quite boring. It's not just movies. Look at the TV series "Sweeping Darkness" by Zheng Zhou. How many artists did he invite to forward it? What's the result? ?Meaningless……"
Meng Yan frowned: "If you don't invite artists, what will you do??"
Lin Xing thought for a while and said: "Let's just release the premiere tickets. You can tell us which cinema it is at. We invite normal audiences to come in and watch the movie, and we will share some information after the screening..."
Meng Yan said: "Such words are actually detrimental to publicity, because the audience finds it difficult for us to control their reputation..."
"If this is the case, then the premiere will be held directly on the day of the release. In this case, there is no need to worry about word-of-mouth collapse..."
Lin Xing said directly: "Our movies are originally rated by the audience, so this ugly daughter-in-law must meet her parents-in-law..."
In other aspects, Lin Xing felt that he could listen to Meng Yan, but regarding the premiere, Lin Xing felt that there was really no need to be cliché.
Because sometimes just because everyone does it doesn’t mean it’s effective.
In this way, Meng Yan went to prepare for the premiere of "Killing Ading", while Lin Xing rushed to the Imperial Capital Film and Television Base. The filming of "Always On" has been completed in Hengdian and has begun to move to the Imperial Capital.
In this way, it happens to be closer.
Two hours later, Lin Xing came to the crew of "Always Offline" and was ready to ask Xie Qiang about his next filming plan.
Throughout September, Lin Xing felt that he would not have any rest time.
