Entertainment: You Don't Want To Be A Big Brother, But A Director?

Chapter 88: Propaganda, what kind of publicity? The box office of literary films is not high, and my night raid on the widow's village will definitely beat his Farewell My Concubine!

in the next time.

The filming of "Farewell My Concubine" is progressing very fast.

After more than a month.

Among the crew, Su Chen was sitting on the director's chair, watching the camera seriously.

Because I have to take on the job of the director.

Therefore, Su Chen's scenes were arranged to be filmed the earliest.

A week ago, his part was almost done.

At this point, the last shot is being shot.

"Cut! Perfect, too!"

Su Chen clapped his hands in satisfaction.

And the movie has come to an end here.

"Director Su, should we promote more this time, I think the box office of this movie will definitely explode!"

After wrapping up, Sun Jian came to Su Chen and said this sentence.

In this movie, Sun Jian is just playing tricks.

Originally, Su Chen wanted to give him an important role.

But after much deliberation, no important role is suitable for this kid.

Ever since, Su Chen asked him to play the devil.

Anyway, this kid looks quite fierce, and he doesn't need acting skills to play a devil. When he puts on his clothes and stands there, he looks like a devil.

After hearing what he said, Su Chen also nodded.

"Yes, let's promote it more this time."

In the previous life, "Farewell My Concubine" won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes International Film Festival.

Needless to say how high the gold content of this award is.

Therefore, Su Chen is very confident about the box office of this movie.

Who said the box office of literary films must be low?

Then he must have never watched "Farewell My Concubine"!

"Qingqing, you are responsible for cutting the trailer, I will handle the publicity."

Shen Qingqing nodded helplessly.

No way, who makes himself a top tool man?

But Shen Qingqing was quite happy.

The trailer can be said to be the most important part of a movie, and this is Guan Ping's success at the box office!

In the past, Su Chen generally edited trailers by himself.

It was the first time that Shen Qingqing was given such an important job.

Afterwards, Su Chen contacted Supervisor Liu again and asked him to help send the film to the next trial.

You know, in the previous life, "Farewell My Concubine" was completely banned in the mainland of Longguo because of the background and era issues.

Later, after winning the award at the Cannes Film Festival, the troupe was approved for public screening.

If Su Chen submitted it for review by himself, he would definitely be asked to delete it.

But in such a good movie, almost every frame cannot be deleted.

Since he has connections, Su Chen must use them whenever he can.

that's all.

The film submission went very smoothly.

In the next few days, the publicity is almost ready.

Su Chen can be said to have spent all his money.

Go straight to the overwhelming publicity!

Although the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, after all, Su Chen is still very confident in the box office of the movie, so he invested a lot of resources in promoting it.

Turning on the phone, various social softwares immediately popped up relevant notifications.

【Smile forever, cry forever! Director Su's new movie "Farewell My Concubine" will be released in two weeks!】

【Shocked! Director Su actually dressed up as a woman, and the reason behind it turned out to be... 】

【Obviously, you can rely on your appearance to make a living, but you still rely on your talent. How good-looking is Director Su with the make-up on?】

【Director Su is making a literary film? Two weeks after "Farewell My Concubine" is scheduled!】

All kinds of title parties emerge in endlessly.

After clicking in to see.

That's all there is to say about this movie.

The trailer made by Shen Qingqing also became popular on the Internet.

Scarf, post bar, Bili station and other places.

The most popular video is none other than a movie trailer!

Netizens were a little dumbfounded at first.

What's up with Nima?

Why does a movie trailer become the hottest video on the website?

Under the trend of curiosity, netizens also clicked in to read it.

After watching it, they finally understood why this trailer became popular.

There are no spoilers in the trailer, but some classic scenes and lines of the movie have been edited out.

"The overlords of Chu knelt down and begged for mercy. Can Beijing opera survive?"

"It's about a lifetime! A year, a month, a day, or an hour is not considered a lifetime!"

"If you want to be powerful in front of others, you must suffer in the future."

"Dieyi, you really can't survive if you are not crazy! It is true that you are crazy in singing, but you are also crazy if you are alive. In this world, among this group of mortals, how can we live.

Waiting for the classic picture, it immediately raised the expectations of netizens!

Especially in the movie, when Su Chen, who put on costumes, sang the scene of "Wujiang Self-Cut".

It also attracts a large number of opera lovers!

For a moment, the entire network exploded, as if it had been doused with gasoline and lit a fire by the way!

"My God, the Concubine Yu played by Director Su is too beautiful!"

"If you're not crazy, you can't survive? This character is very interesting. I must watch the movie when it's released!"

"I'm a man, not a girl...Oh my God, I feel so sorry for Cheng Dieyi.

"When I was in school, I learned such an allusion: In the end, the overlord bids farewell to my concubine, and if you abandon the country, you will also lose to you. Is this what Director Su's movie is about?"

"Interesting, when the movie is released, I must watch it!"

After watching the trailer.

Netizens were attracted one after another, bluntly saying that they must go to the theater to watch it.

And at the same time.

In Xiaofeng's crew.

His "Night Attack on the Widow's Village" has also finished filming, and it will be released after a while.

At this time, Xiaofeng was thinking about the movie submission.

Just at this time, Jiang Feng came over with his mobile phone.

"Say, should we also promote this movie?"

"With Su Chen's overwhelming publicity, the box office will definitely be very high by then, right?"

"On the other hand, our movie has no publicity at all, so how could it possibly beat him at the box office?"

"Farewell My Concubine" was promoted almost all over the Internet.

As long as you go online, you can basically see promotions related to movies.

After hearing what Jiang Feng said, Xiaofeng showed a disdainful smile on his face.

"publicity?"

"Propaganda is useless, his movie box office is definitely not much higher!"

No wonder Xiaofeng is so confident.

As a professional literary film actor, he knows the box office of literary films best.

This kind of movie is originally a kind of relatively small audience.

No matter how famous it is.

No matter how many awards he has won.

The box office is still not high!

"Su Chen's publicity like this is just a waste of money. Don't look at his popularity on the Internet, when the time comes, the box office will definitely die!"

"I don't know if I can get it back.

Xiaofeng added another sentence.

He speculated a bit, and probably knew how much Su Chen spent on publicity.

At least 10 million or more.

Plus the cost of filming the film, the actors' remuneration and so on.

In his opinion.

Su Chen's movie is definitely going to die!

This made Jiang Feng a little confused, he asked: "Are you so sure?"

Xiaofeng nodded, and said firmly: "It goes without saying that compared to crime movies and youth movies, literary movies have a relatively small audience."

"Besides, Su Chen, an illiterate graduate from a social university, can make good movies?"

"Let's put it this way, with Su Chen's popularity, this movie can still make some money, but he wasted so much money on publicity, he will definitely lose money by then, and he will lose a lot of money!

See Xiaofeng so sure.

Jiang Feng knew that he was not a professional, so he had no choice but to listen to the other party.

But he still said threateningly: "If you say that, then I'm relieved... But the box office of the movie should exceed Su Chen, otherwise..."

Hearing Jiang Feng's threatening words, Xiaofeng suddenly became a little nervous.

"Don't worry, Boss Jiang, in the field of literary films, I dare say that I am the number one person in China, and the box office of the film will definitely be higher than Su Chen's!"

As for the network.

Under Su Chen's overwhelming publicity, the popularity of "Farewell My Concubine" continued to ferment.

soon.

Not just a little wind.

More and more people who are not optimistic about Su Chen have also stepped forward.

They are not optimistic about Su Chen, there are two reasons.

First of all, "Farewell My Concubine" is a literary film.

Since it is a literary film, the box office will definitely not be so high.

This is almost an iron law that cannot be changed.

Second, they look down on Su Chen's education.

Although Su Chen's education is not low.

But his previous statement about graduating from a social university is really too popular!

This caused some people who didn't know Su Chen to think that this guy was illiterate.

And what is the most important thing about literary films?

It is the content!

You are an illiterate, how can you make a movie with connotation?

Plus there are quite a few people who are jealous of Su Chen.

After all, Su Chen has preempted the interests of too many people.

under various circumstances.

Some caring people started the rhythm on the Internet.

And most of these people are directors and actors.

This is not.

I saw them on the Internet, and they started to be crazy about yin and yang.

"Tsk tsk, Director Su really has confidence in his new movie, isn't he afraid of dying if he spends so much money to promote it?"

"In my opinion, this must be a loss, but I still wish Director Su a big hit at the box office.

0...seeking flowers...

"The last one who made a loss in filming was probably Guo Xiaosi. Could it be that Director Su is going to become Guo Xiaosi's No. 2?"

"Don't say that, maybe Director Su can really sell well at the box office. After all, this is a literary film, and it is the most popular type of movie! There will definitely be many fools watching it!"

These directors are jealous, even jealous of Su Chen.

One word can describe their hearts.

That is: seeing you make money makes me feel worse than losing money.

So when I saw Su Chen spending huge sums of money to promote the movie.

They couldn't help it, and they stood up and mocked one after another.

They all feel very confident that Su Chen's movie will definitely lose money, and it will lose a lot of money!

after all--

The box office of literary and artistic films is not high, this is an iron law generally recognized in the film and television industry!

No one can break it!

After seeing these yin and yang, Su Chen's fans were furious.

If you scold Su Chen, just scold Su Chen.

Jealousy is a human nature, you are jealous of Su Chen, you can understand because of your family.

But what the hell do you mean by being weird here?

one time.

The fans couldn't sit still any longer, and they also stood up and sprayed.

"Why doesn't everyone like Director Su? Director Su's movies are much better than yours!"

"To put it bluntly, it's sour, through the screen I

Can smell a sour smell.

"Brothers, when the time comes, we must go to the cinema to support Director Su, for no other reason than to see how these directors break through their defenses!"

"Aren't you jealous of Su Chen?"

.....0.....

Su Chen's fans are not vegetarian either.

Originally, these directors were just jealous, so that's fine.

But they have to be cheap.

Not only did he annoy Su Chen.

Some even said that only fools would go to theaters to watch literary films.

This made everyone angry.

Needless to say, it was so hot that everyone was angry.

On the entire network, there was a bloodbath immediately.

And let's talk about Su Chen.

At this moment, he was looking at his phone with a smile on his face.

For this matter, he is not surprised at all.

Because he had already guessed that if he spent so much money to promote a literary film, he would definitely be considered a fool by others.

To put it bluntly.

If the box office of a literary film exceeds 5 million, it is considered very powerful.

But what about Su Chen?

He spent tens of millions on publicity alone!

Not only domestically.

Also advertised abroad!

After all, "Farewell My Concubine" in the previous life was a work that became popular all over the world, and it was once published in the "Time Magazine" of the beautiful country.

force.

How could Su Chen give up such a good promotional opportunity for such a movie going abroad?

Facing the fishing incident on the Internet, Su Chen chose to remain silent.

It's not that he's afraid of death.

But Su Chen himself felt that his operation was too outrageous.

So much money was spent on the promotion of a literary film.

If it weren't for being a time traveler, he would have thought he was a fool if he knew the influence of "Farewell My Concubine" on global terror.

Therefore, the more violent the Internet is, the happier Su Chen is.

Because when the time comes to hit the face, the effect will be even more explosive.

If memory serves me correctly, "Farewell My Concubine" grossed a full $30 million at the box office.

There have been several reruns since then.

Every time it is re-screened, the box office has almost exceeded 100 million.

that era.

The price of a movie ticket is only four yuan.

But at this price, many people cannot afford it.

Under such circumstances, "Farewell My Concubine" can achieve such an explosive box office.

Now with the overwhelming publicity, the box office will only be higher!

Su Chen sat on the sofa, swiping his phone [Shi Bian was thinking.

What he was thinking about was also very simple.

That is, after the box office results come out, how will I spend such a large sum of money?

Just when Su Chen thought so.

An accident happened.

Here's the thing.

The theater chain that had been cooperating with Su Chen suddenly received a message.

That is to reduce the screening rate of this movie!

The reason is that as a literary film, "Farewell My Concubine" must not have a high box office.

Therefore, the rate of film placement is greatly reduced.

After hearing this news, Su Chen is definitely not happy!

He spent a lot of money to promote this movie!

Tell him now that the film scheduling rate has dropped, who can bear it?

Ever since.

Su Chen also planned to contact the theaters.

Get on your own little brother, so it's easy to talk about losses!
