Chapter 69 "Want to See You" aired
Yi Guo didn't expect that Xu Kong's confidence in his new drama was not just an act.
As one of the most influential film and television self-media in China, Yiguo himself is considered to be a semi-expert in the film and television industry due to his frequent exposure to it.
She has long been accustomed to top performers like Xu Kong who have never acted before and gained a large number of fans through the popularity of the talent show, and then started acting like cutting leeks.
All in all, it's just that the acting is not good enough, and the publicity is just to make up for it, the reputation is not good, and the fans are brainwashed.
Generally speaking, the so-called preview meeting of new dramas is a fan meeting in a different form.
The traditional publicity and distribution model, which relies on word-of-mouth to get out of the industry, looks similar to the traditional movie screening road show in advance, but the purpose is completely different.
So when the drama "Want to Meet You" invited her, Yiguo subconsciously believed that the film studio was going to spend money for her to promote the new drama.
But now it seems that they really just invited her to preview the new drama in advance.
Does it really not limit their personal evaluation?
With such doubts, Yiguo hesitated for a moment and finally agreed.
Anyway, the trial meeting was in Hangzhou, so it wouldn't take her too much time to go back and forth.
In addition, I am very curious about this drama that is full of gimmicks and Xu Kong announced that he would write, direct and star in it when filming started.
It’s okay to go and participate.
On the day of the preview of "Want to See You", Xu Kong met Song Youyou at the scene in advance.
The moment she saw Xu Kong, Song Youyou couldn't hide her joy at all.
But because Lin Hong was by her side, she still controlled it.
"Brother Xu Kong."
After simply saying hello, Song Youyou stood beside Lin Hong very honestly.
The venue for this preview meeting was reserved for a large iamx movie theater in Hangzhou.
It has not officially started yet. In addition to the various staff members present to maintain order, there are also the main creators Xu Kong and Song Youyou.
"Such a preview meeting is actually not very necessary."
"But it's up to you, if you don't insist on coming over."
Lin Hong couldn't help but complain.
After all, she still looks down on relatively pure brokerage companies like Fengqing Entertainment.
The so-called preview sessions are all created by companies that are good at marketing.
It doesn't do much to promote the show itself, it just serves to please fans of the lead actors.
Only established film and television companies like Fengge really know what is really important in a drama.
They rely on the film and television works themselves to make money from the platform or ordinary audiences, rather than simply thinking about cutting off fans.
Xu Kong was noncommittal and did not refute.
As more than 500 spectators gradually entered the venue, the interview session before the preview began soon.
Xu Kong dealt with it very easily. It was obvious that although the money was confiscated, most of the media did not want to be kicked out before watching the show, so they asked more restrained questions.
"What I want to ask is, will there be any kissing scenes between the two of you in this drama?"
"As this is your first time working together, how would you evaluate the other party?"
It wasn't a tricky question, Xu Kong answered truthfully, and then praised Song Youyou's acting skills and professionalism.
They were all stage words, and there were no loopholes in Xu Kong's answers throughout.
But when it came to Song Youyou, maybe because I was a little distracted, I misheard the question and thought it was about commenting on the kiss scene between the two in the play.
While thinking about it, he said with a serious face:
"Although it was my first time to shoot a kiss scene, the experience was very good."
“Brother Xu Kong’s kissing skills are great, and it’s a pleasure to play a kissing scene with him”
Seeing Lin Hong's face darken almost visibly in the first row, Xu Kong quickly interrupted Song Youyou who was about to continue talking and changed the topic.
The interview session ended and the theater went dark.
At the beginning of the scene, it was a store called "32 Record Store". As the camera zoomed in, Song Youyou appeared in the store wearing a school uniform.
"So I'll close your eyes for now." As the song "Last Dance", which is already very familiar to the audience, sounded, and accompanied by the narration of Huang Yuxuan played by Song Youyou, the screen began to jump quickly.
The sweet moments between Huang Yuxuan and Wang Chuansheng emerged one by one.
But what’s weird is that in the last scene, during an offline concert, the singing suddenly became weird.
And the people around Huang Yuxuan disappeared one by one, until even Wang Quansheng beside her disappeared.
As soon as the scene changed, Huang Yuxuan herself suddenly woke up.
She stood up, looked around, and then saw the window sealed with wooden boards and iron chains, and Wang Quansheng outside the window.
While banging on the window, they called each other's names.
The strange thing is that she didn't get any response. Wang Quansheng outside the window just looked at her, then turned and left.
I woke up again, and it turned out that everything just now was still a nightmare.
Soon, the title of the entire show appeared, and the words Episode 1 appeared in the center of the screen.
"Damn it, why do you feel so scary?"
"Isn't this an urban romance drama? Why does it start like a suspense film?"
Yiguo couldn't help but fall into deep thought as he listened to the discussion around him.
In fact, among the tags of this drama on the Penguin Video platform, the first one is love, and the second one is suspense, which Yiguo has already noticed.
But I originally thought it was just a simple gimmick, but now it seems that is not the case.
The whole drama has just begun, so we can’t see much.
Yiguo quickly calmed down and continued reading.
Then the style of the whole drama became much more normal, and the background of the heroine Huang Yuxuan was introduced, an ordinary white-collar worker in a big city.
Compared with Song Youyou, who had always acted in school dramas and wore school uniforms, the white-collar worker in the workplace was wearing a different style at this time. The only thing that remained unchanged was that she was still very beautiful.
The style of the drama is indeed similar to that of ordinary urban dramas. The only difference is that the first episode is over, but the male protagonist played by Xu Kong has almost no role.
It can no longer even be described as less, it can be said to be almost none.
Apart from a few photos, there is just a figure flashing past the bus window.
This was indeed a bit unexpected for Yiguo.
She did understand the story. Xu Kong and Song Youyou played the roles of Huang Yuxuan and Wang Quansheng, the lovers who had established a relationship.
An unexpected air crash led to Wang Quansheng's disappearance.
For the next two years, Huang Yuxuan still had not gotten over the shadow of her boyfriend's disappearance.
From time to time, I would have strange dreams and see people who looked exactly like each other.
The rendering of this emotion was done quite well, and Song Youyou performed very good acting skills. Although the plot was a bit dull, Yiguo was still very engaged in watching it.
The plot of the second episode follows immediately.
Because of various doubts, Huang Yuxuan suspected that her lover was not actually dead, and immediately began her own investigation.
By meeting a person who often praised Wang Quansheng, she learned the secret that she had never known.
It turned out that before the plane accident, Wang Quansheng wanted to go on a business trip with her, but was rejected.
In fact, Wang Quansheng's plan at that time was to pretend that the car broke down on the way to the airport, and then create an unexpected surprise and propose to Yuxuan.
It was because Huang Yuxuan refused to let the other party take her to the airport and stubbornly took a taxi to leave by herself. Later, Wang Quansheng took a plane to find her, and this accident happened.
I don’t know if God was joking. On the way home after learning about this incident, Yuxuan’s car really broke down and broke down.
While waiting for rescue, Huang Yuxuan actually found the engagement ring in her trunk that Wang Quansheng had hidden for two years when he was planning to propose to her.
When Huang Yuxuan saw the ring, she first laughed and then cried bitterly, the theme song of the entire drama sounded at the right time.
"I only want to see you when I want to see you. I only want to see you in the future and in the past"
The content of the second episode is over, and the emotions that have been exaggerated in the first two episodes finally reached the highest point at this moment.
