Chapter 171 "The Promise" Road Show

On November 11, Chen Kaige and the main creative staff of "The Promise" came to Quancheng to conduct an advance roadshow to promote the film's release.

There have been rumors in the industry that Zhang and his party have strong appeal in the land of Shandong Province, so the film roadshow must find a way to invite Zhang and his party as guests.

By the time "Kung Fu Panda" was released, Quancheng, as a second-tier small city, had achieved box office results second only to those cities such as Capital City, Magic City and Fishing Village. With the support of data, this rumor was completely confirmed.

When Chen Kaige came to Quancheng for a roadshow, naturally the first thing he thought of was inviting Zhang and his party.

In Chen Kaige's consciousness, he is first of all a literati poet, and secondly a director. Movie scenes are just a means for him to express his feelings.

He had a great interest in literature since he was a child, and applied for the Chinese Department of Peking University when he was young.

Therefore, even though I haven’t met Zhang Yixing, who has the label of being a writer, I already have a good impression of him.

On this day, Chen Kaige finally met this famous young man.

Zhang and his party prepared barley, which made Chen Kaige very happy. Although the sedan chair was carried by people, someone had to carry it.

Especially as a well-known director, he still likes the feeling of being praised by others.

"Brother Yi Xing!"

A small bamboo pole ran out of the crowd, and Da Lala stood in front of Zhang and his party.

Zhang Yixing gestured with Guan Xiaotong's head with his hands, "It's only been a few months, and it's grown again!"

Guan Xiaotong smiled and said with a small mouth: "Eat well, my mother makes me eat this and that every day, just for fear of unbalanced nutrition. I will take a calcium supplement today and a zinc supplement tomorrow. Oh, hey, it's all fast." I vomited after eating it..."

Zhang Yixing interrupted her, "Okay, stop talking!"

Over there, Chen Kaige was already walking forward with Chen Xing on his arm. A rough voice reached Zhang Yi Xing's ears, "Lang Yan is unique and unparalleled in the world! He is indeed a young talent. It's better to meet him than to be famous!"

Zhang Yixing smiled casually and said in praise: "I often envy the jade man in the world, and the heaven should beg for the sweet lady! The couple of the gods and immortals, the plum blossoms are shining brightly!"

Chen Kaige looked at Chen Xin next to him, burst out laughing, let go of Chen Xin's arm, walked over to shake hands with Zhang and his party, and then the two of them walked into the cinema together.

Zhang Baizhi, who was walking behind, asked Nicholas Tse curiously, "Did you hear it? What did the two of them say?"

Xie Tingfeng chuckled and said in a low voice: "Mainlanders, you are trying to be mysterious!"

When everyone arrived at the cinema lounge, Chen Kaige introduced Zhang and his party to the others.

Nicholas Tse sat on the sofa, holding his chin with one hand. Seeing Zhang and his party looking over, he nodded arrogantly.

At this time, Nicholas Tse has not yet become the Chef Xie he will be in the future, and he still has the unique arrogance of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists. When filming "Little Fish and Flowers" last year, there were rumors that he beat up mainland actors during filming. News about Wang Bozhao.

Wang Bozhao is not an unknown person. He once played the role of Xiao Bailong in "Journey to the West".

So as soon as this incident was exposed, it caused an uproar.

Zhang Weijian, who was jointly involved in this matter, had no background, so he was used to scare the monkeys and was banned for several years.

Nicholas Tse escaped the disaster because there were people behind him to support him, but after all, it was hard to change his arrogance.

Seeing Xie Tingfeng's attitude, Zhang and his party looked at him meaningfully, and then stared at Zhang Baizhi up and down. One thing to say, Zhang Baizhi at this time is indeed beautiful and eye-catching.

It wasn't until Zhang Baizhi moved uncomfortably and Nicholas Tse frowned that Zhang and his party smiled, turned around and greeted Liu Ye warmly, saying with a smile: "Hello, Best Actor Liu!"

Over there, Nicholas Tse's brows furrowed into knots when he heard Zhang Yixing call Liu Ye that way.

Liu Ye nodded quickly, a little confused. He didn't know why Zhang Yixing was so cold towards Nicholas Tse and then so enthusiastic towards him. He was just a supporting role in the movie "The Promise"!
Liu Ye hurriedly replied: "Okay! Okay!"

Chen Kaige also noticed that the atmosphere inside the venue was not quite right. Fortunately, the cinema staff came in at this time to remind the media and fans that they were ready.

So everyone went to the cinema together.

It was just a pre-screening road show, and no one had seen the movie, so it was just a simple media promotion and fan meeting.

Most of the celebrity fans who came here were Zhang Yixing and Nicholas Tse.

Zhang and his party have the home field advantage, and the fans' momentum can only overwhelm Nicholas Tse's fans. This is enough to show that Nicholas Tse is in the limelight at this time.

This is not the most popular years for Nicholas Tse in 2000, and after the scandal of the top-billing case, he is still very popular in the mainland.

No way, fans look at their faces, which is one of the reasons why Zhang Yixing is so popular.

Talented, wealthy, good-looking, and able to experience and develop, who wouldn’t like it!
Zhang Baizhi listened to the shouts of fans in the stadium and glanced at Zhang Yixing quite unexpectedly.

Being able to surpass Nicholas Tse in the number of fans is the first time she has encountered this since she performed in many cities on the road.

The host of the event introduced the main creative staff and guests of "The Promise", and then they began to watch the movie trailer together.

I have to say that if you don’t watch the whole movie, but only watch this trailer, the special effects and exquisite pictures inside will really shock everyone.

After the trailer ended, the host suppressed the agitated media and fans and began to interview Chen Kaige.

"Hello, Director Chen, everyone is very concerned about the upcoming movie "The Promise". What do you want to say to everyone about this painstaking work?"

Chen Kaige cleared his throat and said with a smile: "What I want to say is that today I am very happy to be able to meet all the media friends and fans face to face. For the promotion of "The Promise", the media friends have given us a lot of help and passed on this movie." Give it to more people. The filming of "The Promise" took three years. During these three years, all the creative staff put in their best efforts, and the result was a very sincere movie. "The Promise" It will be released on December 12, and I hope everyone can go to the cinema by then."

The host then turned to interview Chen Xin, who starred in the film Man Shen and also served as a film producer.

Chen Yankan said: "The total investment in this movie reached 3 million RMB. After seeing this movie, some film practitioners from Chou Country said that it would take five times as much to make such a movie in Chou Country. The investment cost makes it an unprecedented and legendary masterpiece."

Next, the host interviewed Nicholas Tse and talked about the love rumors about him and Zhang Baizhi. The two neither admitted nor denied it, focusing on the ambiguity to keep people's appetites.

After the interviews with the main creative staff were completed, the host began to interview Zhang and his party.

Zhang Yixing was determined not to mention "The Promise".

"Director Chen Kaige has always been my favorite director. It is rumored that Director Chen is a city-building maniac. In order to make movies, he can build a city from scratch. His craftsmanship of excellence and the ultimate pursuit of film aesthetics , which is worthy of learning by future generations of filmmakers..."

Chen Kaige looked at Zhang Yixing talking eloquently and couldn't help but smile and sighed in his heart: The one who knows me is Yixing!
