Chapter 267 Second Battalion Commander, fire!
"Sweet Honey" is indeed directly screened in advance.
In this regard, Xu Kong has already made up his mind.
Although the point-and-shoot method is indeed not a new method nowadays, the effect alone is indeed very obvious.
There is no shortage of films that have relatively little early publicity and attention, but rely on word-of-mouth screenings to counterattack and become dark horses.
Of course, judging from the current popularity of "Sweet Honey", it is actually unnecessary. After all, movies also need to take risks.
If you are not confident in the quality of your movie, generally speaking, the producer or director will not ask for trouble.
But for Xu Kong, this is not a problem.
Even Yan Rui from Feng Ge and the heads of the film and television department directly expressed their support for Xu Kong's method of screening in advance.
……
"A small-scale screening is enough. It's not a popular period, so there's no need."
Many cooperating theaters, when they got Xu Kong's movie and planned to screen it in advance, We sent news that we are going to hold screenings in our own theaters, and there are quite a lot of them.
This is also a relatively common operation.
In the early years, screenings were indeed reserved for film studios with small promotional budgets but high confidence in their films. They chose to rely on small-scale screenings in the early stage to drive the subsequent reputation of the film. and box office.
However, with the development of time, spot screening has become more common.
Following this, naturally all the movies are vying to be screened.
Not to mention that the original purpose has been completely lost. Some film producers even grabbed some prime time box office in order to release it in advance. They said it was a large-scale screening, but in fact it was no different from an official public release.
Although in this regard, there have been many complaints from netizens and viewers online.
And most of them were criticized. Other film producers at the same time also had a lot of complaints.
But from a commercial perspective alone, there really can’t be any problems.
However, the purpose of Xu Kong's screening is really just to let word-of-mouth ferment in advance. In the off-season of the film market like April, there is no need to grab the audience and win the box office. Large-scale screening is actually unnecessary.
There are too many screenings, so it might as well be officially released in advance.
......
"I feel the same way."
Yan Rui breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Xu Kong's words.
Because I took the initiative to send the invitation this time, I hope that the screening screenings will be placed in my theater chain, and there are indeed a lot of them.
If you agree to a certain theater, then in order not to offend other theater chains, the best thing is for everyone to agree.
Finally, it is a spot screening, which is no different from a formal early release.
"But do you have any plans for the locations of the screenings?"
Yan Rui asked.
The premiere ceremony will definitely be held in the capital.
And Fengge does have the deepest cooperation with local theater chains in Beijing.
It is also easier to arrange.
In addition, as the director and starring role of the film, Xu Kong would be better off participating in some subsequent screenings in other cities.
For normal road shows, the corresponding procedures are basically the same.
The only thing worth noting is that for small-scale screenings, generally speaking, only peers in the industry or corresponding media film critics are invited.
It is indeed necessary for Xu Kong to go to the scene in person.
......
"My assistant should have made arrangements."
Xu Kong answered.
Although it is the first time for Guo Zihao to come into contact with various things related to movie release.
But the other party is indeed quite reassuring when dealing with these chores.
Xu Kong was handed over to Guo Zihao and was not taken care of much in the future.
In general, although it was indeed Guo Zihao who shamelessly followed him to Fengge.
But I have to say that without the other party, his so-called personal studio would not be able to be managed in such an orderly manner.
There is almost no need for him to waste too much time and energy on these trivial matters.
Guo Zihao is not suitable for discussing business matters with some partners, but he is indeed very suitable for managing these logistics tasks.
The other party seems to be very good at doing tasks such as Xu Kong's crew's set work.
......
"Sweet Honey" is about to be released. For Xu Kong, he is much more relaxed than before.
The main reason is that most of the time has been finalized, and with an experienced company like Feng Ge to deal with it, there is almost no need for him to intervene, and everything can proceed in an orderly manner.
Of course, for Xu Kong, although he is free at work, he is not so free.
"You can just arrange it for me, I won't be on stage then..."
In Su Zhi's studio, the other party said calmly.
Xu Kong also nodded and agreed.
But the expression is indeed quite helpless.
There is really no problem for Su Zhi to attend the premiere of her movie.
After all, as this is his first theatrical film directed and acted in, Su Zhi has to go no matter what.
Besides Su Zhi, there were many people who asked him for tickets to the premiere of the movie.
There is no way, Song Youyou and Zhu Yu both said they would go to the scene to participate.
Not to mention Shang Yuxin. After all, she is the heroine of the movie, so she must be present at the premiere.
But if this is the case, almost all the women who have anything to do with him will gather together unconsciously.
Thanks to Mr. Yu not being in the capital, otherwise, there is a high probability that the other party would also be present.
What Xu Kong is thinking about now is where to seat the girls.
Sitting together is a bit too outrageous, naturally impossible.
But if they are separated, the location arrangement is also a bit troublesome.
The main reason is that it is impossible to let one sit in the front row and the other in the back.
This seems to be a bit preferential, and does not conform to Xu Kong's long-standing idea that a bowl of water should be treated equally.
......
But fortunately, the theater where the premiere was held was large enough, so we could arrange the several people separately, so we didn’t have to worry too much about how a few people would start chatting unexpectedly.
The only thing that needs attention is Song Youyou's side.
Although the other party has completely let down most of his guard against Su Zhi.
But Zhu Yu and Shang Yuxin, at least, couldn't let each other notice that something was wrong.
"Youyou are going too?"
While Xu Kong was thinking about this, Su Zhi, like a roundworm in his stomach, directly told the truth.
This made Xu Kong stunned for a moment, and then he smiled without knowing what to say.
"It's okay, let me and Youyou sit together."
Su Zhi suddenly spoke, Xu Kong was startled by such a suggestion.
"Don't worry, I won't talk nonsense."
Su Zhi still had that calm expression without any emotion.
But in this regard, judging from what happened before, Xu Kong still trusts Su Zhi's words.
“And the two of us have been arguing with your CP party on the Internet for so long, so this time can be regarded as a formal response...”
Su Zhi’s thoughts are indeed a bit inconsistent in many cases. Different.
At least Xu Kong never thought about this before.
Although Xu Kong's popularity is frighteningly high now, he is different from some so-called traffic stars, or most artists.
When I was an idol in Fengqing Entertainment, I was really not allowed to spread any scandals or related news.
But now that he has completely transformed and successfully transformed, it is no longer the case that he needs to say that his relationship cannot be known to the public.
It’s just that even ordinary actors or singers, as long as they are slightly good-looking, will have a considerable number of girlfriend fans.
Let alone falling in love, even if there is some scandal, it will be a huge public relations crisis.
Only Xu Kong’s situation is too special. He has a lot of female fans, but his girlfriend fans account for a pitifully small proportion.
Not even the so-called scandals, the number of CP parties between Xu Kong, Su Zhi and Song Youyou has reached a terrifying level.
Not to mention it is a scandal, everyone is eager to see Xu Kong and one of them go public directly, then the CP gang will really celebrate the New Year.
The only thing that is a bit troublesome is that the CP parties on both sides are indeed incompatible.
Some time ago, Xu Kong saw various scoldings between Su Xu CP fans and Xu Youyou fans on Weibo.
So as Su Zhi said, just let the media capture the two of them appearing at the premiere of Xu Kong's new movie.
And they still sit together and have a very good relationship.
The scolding war between the CP parties on both sides will naturally end as a result.
……
This is indeed a good idea.
The only thing that makes Xu Kong a little helpless is that it seems that with Su Zhi, Youyou is really under her control.
Poor Youyou, I guess when I see Su Zhi at the premiere, I will not be surprised at first.
With a few casual words from Su Zhi, she will begin to sympathize with the other party again.
But little did he know that he had already been robbed.
“Just be careful and click as far as you can...”
Xu Kong had no choice but to remind him.
The main thing is that she is worried that Su Zhi has portrayed her image too badly. When one day Youyou accidentally knows the truth, she will hate her even more.
There is a high probability that I will be implicated.
Xukong's original intention was that it would be too troublesome to deal with this matter, especially the emotional debt, which was different from the previous life.
Most of the women at that time approached him with purpose.
Both sides are just getting what they need.
Whether it is Song Youyou or Su Zhi in this life, strictly speaking, the relationship between the two of them and him almost does not have too many ulterior motives.
But originally I just wanted to cover it up properly.
Who knew that Su Zhi, a singer who couldn't act, suddenly had so many ideas in her mind, making up stories and characters, and that silly girl Youyou naturally believed them all.
……
"Do you think I am a bad woman?"
Su Zhi glanced at Xu Kong and suddenly asked.
“I didn’t say that!”
Xu Kong quickly clarified, after all, he was not a fool.
Even if you have really thought about this kind of thing, just think about it.
Looking at Xu Kong's nervous look, Su Zhi continued calmly:
"I am."
This made Xu Kong not sure how to answer the conversation for a while.
"No, no."
Xu Kong quickly helped Su Zhi speak.
He knew too well that girls began to admit their mistakes, even when they scolded themselves.
The last thing you should do is follow what the other person says.
It’s just lighting a lantern in the toilet.
......
However, Su Zhi's thoughts at this time were obviously not like this, and she continued to emphasize it lightly.
"I am."
After saying that, the person was getting closer and closer to Xu Kong unknowingly.
Then he whispered in his ear:
"You should punish me, a bad woman..."
Xu Kong naturally reacted at this time. come over.
Well, I was waiting for him here.
It turns out that the other party’s own attributes appeared again.
It doesn’t matter whether she is a bad woman or not, what matters is Xu Kong’s punishment.
......
"There are still people in your studio..."
Xu Kong was still slightly awake and breathing heavily.
I knew it was broad daylight, but I was still in Su Zhi's office.
In the studio outside, almost all the employees of the other studio were there, and there was even an agent Yuan Yinan who would suddenly burst in at some point.
It's just obvious that Su Zhi at this time couldn't listen to Xu Kong's words at all.
He said angrily:
"Hit me..."
Xukong:...
"Tnn's!"
He has never been able to refuse Su Zhi's request. of.
At this moment, I don’t want to worry about this anymore.
"Second Battalion Commander, fire!"
......
The battlefield after the third battle can only be said to be miserable and in a mess.
Although Xu Kong won in the end, it can only be described as a tragic victory.
As for Su Zhi, even at the beginning, she looked completely defeated.
But even after changing the battlefield from desks, sofas, and carpets several times in succession, it is still very tough.
It can only be said that although Xu Kong has known the opponent's trick of showing weakness to the enemy for a long time, he still falls into the trap unknowingly every time.
"Drink some water..."
Xu Kong took a glass of water and handed it to Su Zhi, who had begun to recover gradually.
Concern is on the one hand, but the main reason is that she is too worried about Su Zhi being dehydrated.
Su Zhi seemed to have guessed what Xu Kong was thinking, and gave him a rare and charming look.
Xu Kong has always known that women are made of water, but he didn’t take it completely seriously.
He didn't know what this sentence meant until he met Su Zhi.
……
“Sister Nan and the others……”
Xu Kong later realized that he had been stimulated by Su Zhi just now. It could be said that he devoted himself wholeheartedly and left no room for anything.
Even Su Zhi is still as tolerant as ever.
But the movement of the duo was too obvious. No matter how good the diaphragm in Su Zhi's office was, it probably couldn't be completely concealed.
“Don’t you just like stimulation like this?”
Su Zhi’s recovery ability is indeed a much-coveted talent. At this time, she had regained her energy and calmly teased him.
"I'll tell you the truth!"
Xu Kong was a little helpless, mainly because he was not familiar with anyone in Su Zhi's studio except Yuan Yinan.
It is really difficult and a lot of work to keep the entire studio a secret for more than ten people.
It would be really troublesome if I was recorded again and there was evidence or something.
But after he finished speaking, Su Zhi continued to speak:
"I asked Sister Nan to inform them to get off work early..."
