Become famous another day.

The main reason why "Love Letter" was premiered in China and also held a special screening for friends at Zhenhua University was because it seemed to be able to become another "base camp" for Lu Yanhe.

Around him, there are two forces outside the entertainment industry that can truly help him. One is the network of contacts behind Chen Ziyan, and the other is the "Jump Up" team led by Chen Siqi.

Moreover, we are all people in the entertainment industry, and we are all more or less revolving around the same pool. No matter how fast we revolve, we cannot get out of this pool.

Chen Ziyan told him many times that he should firmly grasp the alumni circle of Zhenhua University.

The alumni circle of Zhenhua University is definitely one of the most influential circles. After graduation, they are all distributed in various industries, and most of them are elites in various industries. This is especially true in the financial circle, which is closely related to the entertainment industry.

Chen Ziyan also said: "It's not just that you need their help a lot of the time, they also need you a lot of the time. Of course, if they want you to be the spokesperson for some capital games, this is still not possible. Many capitals will have one or two stars as their spokespersons in front of the scenes."

Lu Yanhe nodded: "I will definitely not participate in this kind of capital game."

"It's not that we don't participate in capital games, but you can't be their spokesperson on stage. The risk is too great." Chen Ziyan said, "Not all capital games are traps. If the game can be played, it means there must be a winner."

Lu Yanhe: "But I don't understand either. If I really get involved, won't I be treated like a fool?"

"You don't understand, it's enough if there are people around you who do." Chen Ziyan said, "Your Linghe, Chen Siqi's Jump Up, and even my Pick Up Fire, as the company gradually develops, we will inevitably participate in such capital games. This is not something we can refuse to participate in. When you reach a certain level, if you still want to stay out of it, then you will inevitably be squeezed out by the larger capital. No one will allow you to occupy such a large market share in isolation, you are taking away other people's cake. And if you have the support of the Zhenhua circle in various fields behind you, anyone who wants to target you will have to weigh their own weight."

Lu Yanhe: "Okay."

"But what does this have to do with my insistence on holding a screening event in Zhenhua?" Lu Yanhe asked.

Chen Ziyan: "Yes, you have graduated, but your relationship with the school is still close. You need to send this signal to the outside world, especially to the people in Zhenhua. In addition to interests, there are also personal connections. The school has acted as a matchmaker for you, and the basis for cooperation is much deeper than those outside. The most important thing is that you have to let the people in Zhenhua see you and think of you from time to time. You are the first top star to come out of Zhenhua in recent years. Believe me, with your current popularity and the achievements you have made in this industry, many of your seniors will be proud of you being their junior."

Lu Yanhe nodded, "Okay."
-
For the special screening of "Love Letter" at Zhenhua, the Youth Association was responsible for the coordination. The current president of the Youth Association is still Wang Xiao, the first president in the history of the association to serve as president for four years and is expected to break further history.

There will still be a red carpet and photo area.

This time, walking the red carpet with Lu Yanhe were his three undergraduate roommates.

This is also a special arrangement by the company.

Chen Siqi will walk the red carpet with Lin Yu, Li Pengfei and other high school classmates from No. 13 Middle School.

For a movie like this that has a bit of "nostalgia for youth", the company hopes to play the "classmate card" and, through such an arrangement, let the outside world see that Lu Yanhe attaches great importance to the impression of his former classmates.

Many celebrities, after becoming famous, tend to have less contact with old friends due to changes in their social circles. It's not that they do it on purpose, or that they think they can't keep in touch, but it's inevitable that they have less and less common life and topics to talk about.

But Lu Yanhe did keep in touch with his old classmates.

When Lu Yanhe's "high school classmates" and "university classmates" appeared on the red carpet, the media invited to the scene were all shocked.

For the screening at Zhenhua University this time, Lu Yanhe did not invite any friends from the entertainment industry - if you don't count Miao Yue, who is also a screenwriter in the entertainment industry, there were only three leading actors present, Lu Yanhe, Chen Bige and Zhang Ruozhi.

The media never imagined that the first public screening of "Love Letter" in China would be so "star-less".

Of course, at this time no one would say that Lu Yanhe has poor popularity and cannot invite celebrities to participate.

No media outlet, no matter how shameless, could say such a thing. As long as Lu Yanhe invited them, he could definitely turn the screening of his film into a scene comparable to an awards ceremony.

Obviously, this is the arrangement of the film company.

A friend's place is a friend's place.

It's really a friend's place.

This feeling became even deeper when Lu Yanhe, Zhou Mukai, Mao Jiayang and Xiao Jing walked onto the red carpet together.

Accept the interview.

When asked why he chose to walk the red carpet with his three roommates instead of his girlfriend Chen Siqi, Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "I went back to Zhenhua today, so I walked with my old classmates."

"Chen Siqi is here today as well. For a romantic movie like this, are you worried that Siqi will get jealous if she sees you being intimate with other girls in the movie?" a reporter asked with a smile.

Lu Yanhe blinked and said, "After you finish watching the movie, you probably won't ask that question anymore."

Sorry, there is no intimate action in this movie.

Pure love, absolutely pure love.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of Lu Yanhe's mouth, the reporter immediately turned the microphone to his classmates.

"Can you tell us what Lu Yanhe is like in school?"

"That's it." Mao Jiayang said, "It's almost the same as what you saw on camera, there's no difference."

"No way? There will be some difference, right?" the reporter asked jokingly.

"It's true. He's very abnormal. When I see him on the show, he sometimes relaxes and takes a break when the camera is filming. When he's at school, except for sleeping, you basically don't see him in the dormitory. He's either in the classroom or in the library." Mao Jiayang said seriously, "When he was writing scripts, he often stayed in the library for a whole day. On our school's internal forum, there were people checking in every day. As long as Yan He went to the library, someone would post a message."

Zhou Mukai added: "He had basically completed the first draft of his graduation thesis in the second semester of his junior year. I admire him very much."

"Stop praising me, you guys are praising me as if I'm a top student. My grades in school have never ranked in the top 15%." Lu Yanhe quickly stopped them, "You work so hard, but your grades are still so average."

Xiao Jing laughed.

Lu Yanhe "threatened" the media reporter: "You are not allowed to report this."

Chatting and laughing, they finished the interview and went into the auditorium.
-
The auditorium was bustling.

The auditorium can accommodate 500 people, and those present today are mainly teachers and students from Zhenhua University.

Lu Yanhe's relatives and friends only accounted for a small part.

The Dean of the Faculty of Arts was present, as was a Vice-President of the University.

These were all contacted by Wang Xiao.

As soon as Lu Yanhe came in, Wang Xiao strode over, patted him on the shoulder, and welcomed him warmly: "You're finally back to school!"

Lu Yanhe laughed: "How can you come back without bringing some works?"

Wang Xiao: "You are your greatest work, why are you talking such nonsense?"

He took Lu Yanhe to greet several school leaders first. Then, Lu Yanhe sat down and Wang Xiao went on stage. As the host, he gave a brief introduction to the screening event, especially the two major awards the film won at the Jose Antonio Film Festival. Then, the film screening began.
-
Although Chen Siqi did not walk the red carpet with Lu Yanhe, her seat was still arranged next to Lu Yanhe.

This is not the first time that Chen Siqi has watched "Love Letter".

During the movie screening, Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi were not actually paying much attention and would occasionally speak very softly in each other's ears.

When the movie ended and the lights came on, when Lu Yanhe came to his senses, he saw that many people around him had red and swollen eyes.

"..."

Well, it seems that movies like "Love Letter" are even more tear-jerking for students in school.

There was thunderous applause at the scene.

Both Lu Yanhe and Chen Bige stood up, turned around, waved and greeted the audience with bright smiles.

The inexperienced Zhang Ruozhi stood up as if awakened from a dream only at this time after being reminded by others. He stood beside Chen Bigge shyly and greeted everyone.

The response on site was very enthusiastic.

People from the Youth Association have started to move chairs onto the stage, and they will hold an exchange event later.

Wang Xiao is the host, Miao Yue is the guest, plus the three leading actors of "Love Letter".

Lu Yanhe shook hands or hugged the important guests sitting in the first row one by one to express his gratitude for their coming.

Those who have other work arrangements can leave first. If you have nothing else to do, continue to participate in the next session.

There were only a few invited media outlets filming on site, unlike normal screenings where there was a mixed crowd of participants.

Ten minutes later, Lu Yanhe and the others sat down on the stage.

Wang Xiao first asked some common questions, and after leading everyone into the main topic, he invited everyone to share their feelings about filming this movie.

Lu Yanhe had shared this kind of thing several times before, so he didn't say much. He just said a few simple words and handed it over to Chen Bige and Zhang Ruozhi.

Chen Bi Ge said: "Now that I think about it, I am quite scared. I am an actor who is very cautious about accepting roles, especially in recent years. But at that time, I had already worked with Yan He in "The Seventeenth Floor" and filmed "Rouge Button" which he wrote. So when he said he wanted to find me to act in another script, I agreed without thinking too much. In the end, he wrote, directed and acted in it himself... Haha, I dare to say this now. At that time, I was actually very worried. Would it mess up?"

Lu Yanhe laughed along with the audience.

"Before filming this movie, he said that this movie might not help me win any acting awards. He said that this was not a movie that focused on the actors' performances." Chen Bige continued, "But he also told me that although I might not win any awards, this movie and this role might become a milestone in my acting career. I was shocked at the time. I thought to myself, young people are prone to making big statements."

Everyone laughed again.

Lu Yanhe could only make a "helpless" expression and gesture.

"But as we were filming, I slowly realized that maybe he wasn't exaggerating, but I underestimated the movie," said Chen Bige. "After seeing everyone's reactions today, I became more convinced. I originally thought... well, I found that I have a lot of prejudices. I originally thought that Zhenhua's students were all rational people with less emotional thinking and might not be moved by this movie. But it turns out that your eyes were no less red than others."

Everyone laughed even harder.

Chen Bige: "Filming this movie was a wonderful process. The two characters I played in the movie are actually not very similar to my own personality, but during the filming, I could truly feel their hearts and understand their thoughts. This is based on a good script, which can only give us an unreal reality. In the past few years, I have collaborated with Yan He on many dramas. Except for "Seventeenth Floor", the scripts of the other dramas were all written by Yan He. Sometimes I wonder if I have collaborated with Yan He too much and whether it will make everyone aesthetically fatigued."

"How could that be?" Wang Xiao faithfully performed his duties as a supporting actor. "As long as you are willing to act, we want to watch any play."

Chen Bige smiled and glanced at Wang Xiao, thanking him with his eyes. "However, Yan He's scripts are completely different, whether it's the subject matter, characters, or style. Sometimes I wonder if he has different souls living in his body to be able to write so many works of completely different styles."

Lu Yanhe showed a surprised and unexpected smile.

He didn't know whether there was a hint of guilty conscience on his face at that moment.

When it comes to Zhang Ruozhi, she is almost exactly the same as in the movie, a very young but not introverted girl.

Her makeup and style are very clear and student-like. Unlike many young female stars, she does not easily look out of place because of heavy makeup.

She said: "For me, filming a movie was a very sudden thing. He and Sister Siqi...were in a bookstore at the time. They suddenly appeared in front of me and asked me if I was willing to make a movie. I was shocked."

Lu Yanhe said: "You were not just shocked, your first reaction was to wonder if we were liars."

Zhang Ruozhi smiled shyly.

She was very embarrassed.

However, her reaction was very "Fujii Itsuki" and fits her image in the movie.

Someone asked Lu Yanhe if he would shoot a movie with Zhenhua University as the background in the future?
Lu Yanhe said that he has no relevant ideas for the time being. If he thinks of a good story in the future, he is very willing to shoot a movie with Zhenhua University as the background. He also welcomes everyone to send good ideas and creativity to the public email address of Linghe Production. Once there is a good story, he is very happy to work with everyone to create a movie about Zhenhua.

After saying this, applause immediately broke out at the scene.

This is Zhenhua's home court, and Lu Yanhe was able to say this in public, which naturally earned him cheers and applause from the audience.

"Someone commented before that this movie was obviously written and directed by you, so why did you get a male vase role?" During the question-and-answer session, a girl asked with a smile.

As soon as the question came out, the whole audience burst into laughter.

Lu Yanhe also laughed.

He waved his hand and said, "I don't think I have prepared a role as a male vase for myself. To be honest, in a sense, I believe that this role will become the one that everyone will remember the longest and miss the most in my film career."

When Miao Yue heard Lu Yanhe say this, she thought he was joking at first, but after waiting for a long time, she didn't get any sign from Lu Yanhe that he was making fun of himself, so she was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Lu Yanhe kept it a secret.

"It would be inappropriate for me to reveal it myself. Let's wait for the audience's reaction. After a few years, we'll see if my judgment today is correct." Lu Yanhe said with a smile.

With this special screening at Zhenhua University, the promotion of "Love Letter" has been fully launched.

The next day, the program "How Are You? I'm Fine" was aired, a trailer was released, and it was announced that the first episode would be online in three days.

"Do you remember who you had a crush on back then?"

"Do you know who has had a crush on you?"

"After all these years, how are you?"

The theme of this program is revealed sentence by sentence.

Last sentence: This program is inspired by the movie "Love Letter" which will be released on the Chinese Valentine's Day.

Chen Siqi forwarded the trailer and wrote:

This program is planned by Xin Zixing, the producer of the hit program "Rooftop Confessions". PS behind-the-scenes story: I asked, sister, do you have any good ideas for promoting "Love Letter"? Sister said that she had to watch the movie first. After watching the movie, she said that she wanted to make a program. I said, sister, our publicity budget is limited, and we can't use the publicity budget of a movie to make a program. Sister said, I don't care about your publicity, I want to make this program. I was stunned, and sister said to do it and did it.

As the show began to gain momentum, screenings of Love Letters continued.

It did not take the long-running movie route like Paths of Glory, but instead held special screenings in various places.

Mainly university campuses.

The domestic distribution of Love Letter was handled by Maowei. Longyan wanted to compete at the time, but its bid and distribution conditions were not as good as Maowei's. In addition, Maowei's distribution strategy for the film was more in line with Lu Yanhe's ideas. Longyan's distribution strategy for the film was to go for the simple and crude route of big stars and blockbusters, and Lu Yanhe shook his head when he heard it.

If this movie dares to go the route of big-star, blockbuster distribution, it will probably be questioned by a large number of viewers for being "wolf meat under the guise of mutton". This is not a romantic comedy like "Can't Even Fake My Death".

"Love Letter" should indeed follow the audience's word-of-mouth route, especially among students.

Use it to stir up the topic of "youth remembrance" among the student group and see if the popularity of this topic can be exploited to achieve greater results.

Lu Yanhe and Chen Bige split into two groups and began attending screenings at universities across the country.

If a star is going to appear in a university, basically all the teachers and students in the school will hear about it. There are basically tens of thousands of teachers and students in a school.

Tickets for these screenings are snapped up, and this is when Maowei's ability as a distributor is demonstrated. Every time they arrive in a city or a school, someone has to check out the school's screening venue in advance, bring the screening equipment and tapes to do some debugging, and then develop a ticket purchase procedure online. Maowei has the technology, a national network, and its own ticket purchase platform, so it is fully capable of implementing such nationwide college screenings.

Lu Yanhe spent five days on this publicity campaign.

It's really exhausting.

Afterwards, he appeared on two of the most popular variety shows in China with Chen Bige, Zhang Ruozhi, Li Songfan, Wan Xin and others to promote the movie.

The show "How are you? I'm fine" is naturally topical.

Jump Up has made relatively large concessions on the advertising revenue and copyright cooperation of this program, so as to allow Northern Lights Video and Ice Field Video to invest more publicity funds and attract traffic for this all-amateur program on the Internet.

Not surprisingly, this show became popular on the Internet.

The mere mention of the word "secret love" will certainly attract people to click in and watch on certain platforms. And this program, at a time when various observational programs are emerging one after another, suddenly brings the relationship between men and women, which has been dissected to the ends of the corridor of time, back to the two ends of the corridor, allowing people to once again experience the nervous shyness of not daring to open their hearts when they were young, and the loss and deep regret when looking back on the past after growing up.

The most hazy and ambiguous feeling of love between men and women has therefore returned to people's minds.

When both programs are broadcast, "Love Letter" will be cleverly inserted in the form of "movie lines" or movie shots at the beginning, end, and transitions in the middle, seamlessly combining the movie with the content of this program and directly raising the audience's expectations for the movie.

As July came to an end, the movie "Love Letter" had already become a hot topic on various social platforms, especially those where college students are active.

This is a very spoiler-free movie.

After all, the movie revealed the death of the male protagonist at the very beginning.

This is even a movie that the more spoilers are revealed, the more likely it is to attract people to go to the cinema to watch it.

Because the biggest feature of this movie is emotional resonance and infectiousness.

At this time, the promotional tour of "Love Letter" was planned to be suspended for a few days.

Lu Yanhe has to go shoot "Hurricane 2". When he comes back, he will go to another promotional line of "Love Letter" - the media screening.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

That's another battle.

Of course, the offline promotion of their main creative staff has been suspended, but the online promotion has not been suspended.

In less than half a month, the number of people who wanted to watch "Love Letter" has exceeded 35, and the box office agency's estimate of the box office has also exceeded 5 million. The publicity effect is extremely significant.

The next step is to see whether the good situation presented by the data can really be converted into real money at the box office.

There have been too many "Waterloos" in the past, and no one dares to really let go.

It’s always like this when a movie is released. Until the first day’s box office figures come out, you can never really know with confidence whether the movie will really attract audiences to go to the cinema to watch it.

Wanting to go and actually going are two different things.
-
At the end of the month, Lu Yanhe flew to the United States with his team in a very low-key manner.

This time it only took three days to shoot, which is still very fast, but the round trip journey still required another two days.

This time, Lu Yanhe truly witnessed what a Hollywood A-level production is.

In just three days, the crew provided Lu Yanhe with a car and a full-time driver. At the same time, the bodyguards and service team for the three days in the United States were all funded by the crew.

This is not included in Lu Yanhe's $150 million.

The hotel turned out to be a luxury suite with a price tag of over ten thousand dollars a night.

Lu Yanhe was stunned.

So dignified?

The rich are so inhumane.

When Lu Yanhe was filming "The Mist" before, he did not enjoy such treatment at all.

Of course, that movie was also a low-budget movie, costing only over 10 million U.S. dollars.

The production cost of "Hurricane 2" alone is over million, and the publicity and promotion costs may still be this high.

At this moment, Lu Yanhe suddenly realized firsthand what kind of treatment the truly top stars in Hollywood enjoy.

What Lu Yanhe didn't expect was that when he arrived at the hotel, the crew's liaison asked him suggestively whether he needed someone to provide him with certain services, specifically emphasizing safety and reliability.

Lu Yanhe declined directly.

The next day, Lu Yanhe was picked up and taken directly to the studio.

All of Lu Yanhe's scenes for these three days were shot in the studio.

Some are green screens, and some are real scenes.

Because he plays an Asian elite, his look is actually very simple, just a suit and tie.

However, even so, the crew prepared fifteen suit styles for him to choose from.

Business style, casual style, elite style... Actually, if you don’t look closely, there is not much difference.

However, for the costume designers on this film, it was something completely different.

While he was trying on clothes, the film's star and producer, Drion Dillon, arrived.

"Hey, brother!" As soon as Derian came in, he greeted Lu Yanhe very enthusiastically.

Drien is a traditionally handsome man with a very muscular build and a very "superhuman" look.

"Glad to have you join us." Derrian Dylan patted Lu Yanhe on the shoulder and said.

Lu Yanhe smiled and said: "I am a fan of "Hurricane". I am very happy to be able to film "Hurricane 2". I was very surprised to receive the invitation."

In fact, he watched "Hurricane" on the plane flying here.

Some fake social talk.

Derrian Dylan looked at the outfit Lu Yanhe had just changed into.

"I have to say, I suddenly regret inviting you to star in "Hurricane 2." He frowned seriously.

Lu Yanhe smiled and looked at him, "Why?"

He had already guessed what Derrien Dillon was going to say next.

"Because you're so damn handsome, you're going to steal my limelight!" Derrian Dylan deliberately made a "bad" expression and tone.

really.

It was really guessed.

"..." Lu Yanhe smiled, "Well, the media is right, you are really a good person."

Derryn Dillon immediately laughed.

"Let's have a drink together after work today!" He said, "After watching The Mist, I've wanted to meet you, and now I finally have the chance."

Lu Yanhe nodded and said yes.
-
Lu Yanhe really has no room to display his acting skills in "Hurricane 2".

Although he has quite a few scenes in this movie, he keeps popping up from time to time and is a character that appears throughout the entire film.

From the beginning, he was an investor who had some conflicts with the meteorologist played by Drien because he had some ideological differences with Drien on a weather tracking system project.

When they really encountered a once-in-a-century hurricane disaster, he tried to contact Drien and his team, but failed to get in touch with them, so he decided to drive to find them and take them away from this catastrophe.

As a result, when they found the protagonists, it was too late. They also had to help the people in the town avoid the disaster. When the protagonists were trying to lead people to survive the hurricane disaster, Derian was almost blown away by the wind. He urgently grabbed Derian's hand and tried hard to pull him back.

However, just when they all breathed a sigh of relief, said a few words, explained the misunderstanding when they first met, and finally made peace with each other, a piece of glass that was blown from somewhere by the hurricane suddenly shot into Lu Yanhe's neck.

The Asian character played by Lu Yanhe just died like that.

A complete tool role.

There are only a few scenes in total.

However, fortunately, his character has a reversal at the beginning and end, and his act of dying to save the protagonist in the end makes his image very positive, and he is not a pure tool.

The scene we filmed today was the one where Lu Yanhe and Derian had an argument.

He also had no intention of designing a past and present life for his character.

The tool person role should do the task of the tool person role well——

With Lu Yanhe's current ability, if he continues to "three-dimensionalize" a minor supporting role, the actual effect may be like "even the wisest man can make mistakes". He has acted too much and it is incompatible with this simple and crude plot.

When Lu Yanhe was thinking about how to play this role, what he was actually thinking about was the settings of the supporting characters in the "Mission Impossible" series.

In Mission Impossible, Tom Cruise is the absolute protagonist, but many other supporting characters, although they don't appear much, all have their own highlights and brilliance. Tom Cruise also did a great job in this regard. He did not prevent other supporting characters from having their own brilliance just because he is the absolute protagonist.

Those are all very stereotyped characters, but those actors were amazing in portraying one characteristic to the extreme, thus leaving a deep impression on the audience.

Lu Yanhe thought about it, and inexplicably put himself in Zhou Ping'an's shoes.

A character who is neither so good nor so bad, and who acts entirely from practical interests.

If we sculpt this character based on Zhou Ping'an's appearance, it seems that we can find a fulcrum.

But after hesitating for a while, he gave up.

In the script, this character is not actually a "bad character". He just has different ideas from the protagonist. His choices are more conservative and not as adventurous as the protagonist.

He is essentially a good person, otherwise he would not have driven himself to find the protagonists and reminded them of the impending disaster when he could not contact them.

Lu Yanhe didn't want to play his Chinese character as a "secular person" in such a global blockbuster.

Therefore, he finally decided to adopt the most reliable acting method, but to amplify the emotions in each scene, instead of his usual restrained acting style.

By magnifying the situation, he made his character's personality and emotions externalize dramatically.
-
When shooting the first scene, Lu Yanhe arrived at the scene.

This scene is a set, an indoor set - the Weather Forecast Center.

There are more than a dozen extras playing the researchers of the center, acting as background panels.

Lu Yanhe is the representative of the investors of this center.

The director is a bald man named Raul Ward, who looks like a very mediocre and ordinary person.

Lu Yanhe greeted him.

Raul Ward nodded to Lu Yanhe and briefly told him how to shoot.

Lu Yanhe nodded.

There was no more communication.

On the contrary, after Derian arrived at the scene, everyone suddenly seemed to have a backbone, and began to focus their attention from their previous busy state.

The same is true for Laure Ward.

Lu Yanhe looked at the situation and made a judgment in his mind. It seemed that this was a film crew in which Deren was the absolute core.

Of course, this is normal, as Drion is an A-lister in Hollywood, a true top movie star.

It's only natural that he has such a say in his film series.

Lu Yanhe is a little worried now, wondering whether Derian will interfere with his performance.

He knows that some actors like to do this.

Especially actors like this who occupy an absolutely core position in a crew.

Fortunately, Derian still respected him.

Probably because he only gave three days for filming, Derian did not find fault with Lu Yanhe's performance. Instead, he kept saying "It was great" and "You acted exactly as I imagined when I read the script", etc.

Lu Yanhe had never expected that an A-lister in Hollywood would be so friendly and enthusiastic towards him.

The first day of shooting went much more smoothly than he had imagined.

In the evening, he went to the bar with Drien.

At first he was very surprised as to why a big star like him didn't worry about being watched when he went to the bar. Then he found out that he brought seven or eight bodyguards with him. After entering the hotel, a place had already been reserved for him and he was surrounded by his bodyguards. It was impossible for others to get close to him.

It is clearly a place where all kinds of people gather, but there is a place that he has designated as a pure land where "no strangers are allowed to enter".

In addition to the two of them, several other actors from the crew also came.

Since it was Lu Yanhe's first day, everyone's topic basically revolved around him at the beginning, and they asked a lot of questions out of curiosity.

When they learned that Lu Yanhe was promoting a movie and that the movie that won him an award at the Jose Antonio Film Festival would be released in about ten days, they all showed expressions of shock.

DeLian was also surprised and asked, "Don't you need to devote yourself to publicity at this time?"

In Hollywood, after a movie is released, there are usually all kinds of promotional activities, and basically all of the leading actors' schedules revolve around this movie.

Lu Yanhe said frankly: "The film promotion in China is different from that in Hollywood. You have formed a very fixed promotion model. When a movie is released, there is a set model for how to promote it. But in China, if we rely on you to hold screenings one after another, mainly through media coverage and word of mouth from film critics, or record one or two talk shows to promote a movie, the box office will most likely be very bad. Even if I don't come to shoot this movie, my current promotion schedule should stop."

Now is the time to let the buzz from those college screenings and the How Are You? I'm Fine unfold.

These main creators of the film should disappear for a few days. Otherwise, with the hype surrounding the film for the past half month, there will be news about them every day. Everyone will get tired of it, and by the time the film is finally released, everyone may have gotten tired of seeing them.

DeRien immediately asked, "The Hurricane only made over 2 million U.S. dollars in China. Do you think The Hurricane can make more in China?"

Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Of course."

“Do you think Chinese audiences will like this movie?” Drien asked.

"Yes, the first movie didn't meet your expectations at the box office, mainly because Hurricane is positioned in China as a disaster special effects blockbuster. This type of movie is not like other blockbusters. Different movies have been released continuously in recent years, so it has a larger base. Disaster special effects blockbusters haven't been as big as Hurricane for a long time. Many audiences don't know what this type of movie is like, so they may choose to watch another movie." Lu Yanhe explained according to his own understanding, "However, the reputation of the first part of Hurricane in China is still very good. With its subsequent broadcasts on TV and the Internet, it should accumulate a lot of audiences who like the first part and are willing to support the second part."

Derian was very happy to hear Lu Yanhe's words.

"I believe that with your participation, more Chinese audiences will come to watch this film. I heard that your films have never failed in China." Derian raised his glass and clinked it with Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe smiled.

DeRien didn't seem to realize that Lu Yanhe, who had just become a hit in North America and even the world with the movie "The Mist", actually had an influence not limited to China.

Of course, in the eyes of a global box office superstar like Drion Dylan, Lu Yanhe's influence may not be enough.
