Chapter 292: Companionship is the longest confession of love
No one expected that the final box office boost of "No Survivor" would come from "A Leisurely and Slow Life".
At this stage, the marketing enthusiasm on the Internet has reached its maximum. News about this film is overwhelming. Everyone who needs to know already knows.
Those who are not interested will never be interested, and those who are interested have basically read it once.
This has also brought the box office of "No Survival" to the second place in single-day sales, with an excellent result of 23 million box office in a single day.
At the same time, after achieving 20 million+ achievements, the box office popularity of "No Survival" has remained at this level and has never retreated.
For this matter, Sui Lingfang made international calls to Deng Zexu every day to see if she could break the situation elsewhere.
To say why you work so hard, it’s very simple.
Since there is the potential to be number one, who would be willing to be number two?
And everyone remembers who is the first place, who will remember the second and third place.
Deng Zexu asked: "Can you sort out the marketing methods used at the box office, maybe we can find out what we can use?"
Sui Lingfang shook her head, "No, the number one at the box office depends on maturity. With their directors and mature actors, the audience has an impression of them, which is based on the box office accumulated by word of mouth.
I have counted that "Jae Chan" ranks first. "Wandering in Bad Days" did the least marketing.
The previous second and third place's marketing expenses were exactly twice that. As a result, after its release, it still couldn't beat the first place at the box office. It’s the appeal of famous directors and famous actors.”
Deng Zexu asked reluctantly: “Then we can only go so far?”
Sui Lingfang does have some ideas. If these people can be interviewed by the media, they may be able to increase the popularity again.
But the crisis is also great.
The sudden rise of "No Survival" has touched the hearts of many people. Compared with the popularity gained from interviews, the possibility of being maliciously slandered will be greater.
So Sui Lingfang just thought of this idea and quickly gave up.
Sui Lingfang said: "Forget it, I'll think of a solution here. You are far abroad and can't come up with any ideas. Have you finished shooting the "Movie Story" magazine?"
Deng Zexu: "We just finished filming today, and we have travel plans tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. By the way, I have to thank Jinli this time.
If Jinli hadn't brought Fang Fei to provide us with clothing sponsorship, "Movie Story" "If you don't treat us with such respect, you'll have to sacrifice us!"
Sui Lingfang didn't know about this, but after learning about Jinli's excellence from Deng Zexu's mouth, she became a little more accomplished! feel.
Sure enough, this is the best part of being an artist, being able to hear how great your artist is from other people’s mouths.
She smiled and said: "We are also very grateful that you are willing to give Jinli a chance in this drama. This is the result of our joint efforts."
After Sui Lingfang finished communicating with Deng Zexu, she called Jinli again.
It is seven o'clock in the evening in country Y. This is Jinli's rest time.
Because he was shooting magazines around the clock today, Jinli didn’t start a live broadcast to answer questions when he had some free time.
Sui Lingfang heard the background sound from Jinli's side, which seemed to be in a busy street.
She asked curiously: "Are you out for a walk?"
Jinli: "Yeah, I'm in a bookstore nearby. I'm curious about what learning materials the students here use."
The corner of Sui Lingfang's mouth twitched: "In a foreign country, you don't want to have fun , I’m still in the mood to read the study materials, what should I say to you?”
Jinli’s eyes curved slightly and she smiled: “Let me state in advance that I am not crazy, nor have I become crazy because of studying. , I'm just curious . ”
“Okay, okay, Ms. Jinli, who loves to study every day, I don’t know what the weather is like there. Did she keep warm when she went out, did she wear a hat and mask, and did she dress in a low-key manner. , is there anyone with you..."
Jinli: "Stop, stop, sister Fang, don't worry, I guarantee that no one will recognize me when I go out this time. The previous time at the airport was just an accident!"
Sui Lingfang thought for a while: "No, please send me your address. I'm still a little worried. I'll see if I can ask someone to accompany you."
She was still a little worried about Jinli's safety.
Jinli felt warm in her heart. Is this what it feels like to be remembered?
Although Sister Fang has some attributes of an old woman, coincidentally, she likes to listen to old women nagging, which seems to be telling her:
She is never alone.
Jinli said, "Don't worry, I'm really fine. I'll send you a photo, and you'll know why I'm so confident!"
Then Jinli sent a photo.
Sui Lingfang clicked on it and saw that Jinli in front of the glass was dressed like a ball, wrapping herself up like a furry and wearing a furry hat on her head.
I can’t wait to stuff my whole body into a warm fur ball.
Sui Lingfang then remembered that the temperature in July in country Y was different from that in China. She had studied there before, and even in July, the average temperature there was 13-17 degrees.
In recent years, it seems to be getting colder every day.
As if he guessed what she was thinking, Jinli then sent another temperature map. The temperature in her area actually reached two degrees at night!
No wonder he wrapped himself so tightly.
Sui Lingfang sent her a WeChat message.
【Don't wander outside alone for so long. It's not safe anywhere after dark. Go back early. 】
Jinli: [Received! (Salute)]
-
She saw a bookstore covered with stamps. The name of this bookstore was made up of various three-dimensional cubes.
The signboard is very technological, but the decoration has a retro feel.
Jinli walked in and found that the decoration in this bookstore was more retro.
The owner of the shop here seems to love all kinds of stamps. He has decorated the stamps, postmarks and other styles of each country and specially organized a stamp wall.
Under the stamp wall, coins from various countries are affixed for decoration.
Jinli simply sat down in the sitting area and admired the retro wall.
There is soothing music in my ears and the sweet aroma of some kind of bread. I am surrounded by people who are reading books seriously. Time seems to slow down here.
Jinli was suddenly touched and took a photo of this stamp wall and sent it to the group chat.
She thought for a while and sent the photo she took in front of the glass.
The phone soon vibrated, which was a message from Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng: [Are you visiting a bookstore? 】
Jinli:【? ? How do you know this is a bookstore! ]
Gu Cheng: [I am very familiar with this wall. I went to Country Y when I was traveling a few years ago. I came to this bookstore and took photos]
Gu Cheng: [Picture.jpg]
He doesn’t often post on WeChat Moments, but he remembered that he posted it on Moments after taking the photo that day, and he found it after flipping through it.
Jinli: [What a coincidence! I'm here now! 】
She sent her location.
Gu Cheng: [I can’t remember the location of that bookstore. Maybe the store manager opened another branch. I left a message there. Why don’t you help me see if it’s still there? Not here? 】
Jinli: [Where? 】
Gu Cheng: [They have a message wall, but they should clean up a batch every year. After I finished writing, I posted it in the far corner and glued it all around with transparent tape. I don’t know if it can withstand the ravages of the cleaning agent]
Jinli went over to check, and was suddenly stunned, feeling that she didn’t need to look for it at all.
On the edge of the message wall, there is only a message on a note reflecting light, which is firmly stuck with transparent tape.
Because it is difficult to stick a note on the transparent tape, that place also became a vacuum zone, with only one note.
Jinli took a photo.
The message on this note is - [Hardship and hardship, Yu Ru Yucheng]
Jinli: [Why did you think of writing this sentence? 】
Gu Cheng: [The studies at that time were very stressful, and the training as a trainee was also very stressful. There were times when I was very confused and wanted to give up on one of them, but in the end I gritted my teeth and persisted in them all. Writing this In a word, it can be regarded as motivating yourself]
Jinli couldn't help but nod, the top student was just different.
Other people say "you can't have your cake and eat it too," but he just "must have it both ways."
Jinli blinked and sent a message.
Jinli: [You are also very busy at work now. You have to make a lot of announcements every day. Why do you still study with me? 】
Gu Cheng had quite a lot of time last year, and he could basically get an appointment every time he made an appointment to do test papers.
But starting from this year, Gu Cheng's schedule has become significantly busier.
This should also be the current situation for all members of March Day. Not only do they have to run a team schedule, but they also have their own personal schedule to run.
And most of the announcements are about personal itineraries.
So now, Gu Cheng is only free in the evening and works with her on questions for an hour.
But actually he didn’t have to do that.
She studied because she wanted to make up for her regrets and get into college.
But what about Gu Cheng?
Gu Chengdu has already obtained a bachelor's degree and became famous at a young age. There is no need for him to go through high school again with her.
Gu Cheng didn’t send a reply for a long time.
Jinli found the paper and pen provided by the bookstore and was hesitating about what to write.
She felt that her current mood was a little strange.
There are some things that everyone agrees with and let nature take its course.
But once it is exposed, everything feels strange.
Suddenly, her phone vibrated, and she quickly picked it up to read it.
Gu Cheng: [Jinli, companionship is also a very romantic thing. I can't participate in your past, but I want to be by your side in your future. 】
Gu Cheng: [You don’t have to feel pressure. Watching a person gradually become better and understand what he wants gives me a sense of accomplishment]
Jinli couldn’t help but smile.
Jinli: [I think I am very slow to warm up]
Gu Cheng: [It doesn’t matter, we all have a lot of time, don’t we? ]
Jinli: [Well, there is a lot of time]
Putting down her phone, a sentence flashed through Jinli's mind, she wrote it on a piece of paper, and pasted it next to the sticky note with transparent tape.
She also bought a roll of tape and stuck her notes on it when no one was looking.
With a "ding-dong" sound, the door was pushed open and Jinli walked out of the bookstore.
A gust of wind blew from outside the door, blowing away a hint of the sweet smell in the room. The sticky notes on the message wall couldn't help but shake. Only the two sticky notes with transparent tape remained motionless.
【Hardships and hardships bring success】
[Companyship is the longest confession of love]
-
Jinli is still on vacation abroad, but the works about her cannot stop for a moment.
On the side of "No One Survived", we are still actively looking for channels to expand its circle, so that more people can understand it and go to the cinema to watch it.
On the other side, the schedule of "Dream Builders" was still being negotiated, so Director Zhong urged Jinli to sing the movie's theme song.
Sui Lingfang specially called Director Zhong and told him Jinli's concerns.
When he heard, "The song is too difficult, Jinli can't perform it," Director Zhong couldn't help but frown.
He did not expect that the difficulty was too high, blocking his ideas.
Zhong Wentai asked: "It's a bit troublesome. I have to choose a suitable singer, but I don't know much about this. Do you have anyone you can recommend?"
Sui Lingfang's eyes lit up, I just wanted to recommend Xi Mengze to him.
Suddenly, Director Zhong thought of something and asked, "Did Jinli have a teammate who participated in a singing competition last year and did pretty well.
It seemed to be some kind of large-scale live broadcast competition, similar to the domestic one. Singers from other countries compete on the same stage, and I’ve heard her singing, and it’s quite good.”
Sui Lingfang quickly said: "That's Xi Mengze. She is Jinli's teammate and the artist I coach!"
Director Zhong: "Yes, her name is Xi Mengze."
< br>Director Zhong was a little surprised: "She is also an artist of Chenxi Entertainment?
Your company is okay. It signed Jinli and her teammates. Do you want to resurrect the pink girl? "
Sui Lingfang laughed: "We want to do it too, but we need the artist's consent. I can only say that we have been working hard. "
Zhong Wentai: "Okay, since this artist is your subordinate, you ask her to try out all those songs for me. "
Sui Lingfang: "Okay, Director Zhong! ”
After hanging up the phone, Sui Lingfang thought for a moment and did not call. Instead, she went to Xi Mengze’s apartment to find her.
To be honest, Xi Mengze has no desire to fight even more than Jinli.
She doesn't usually receive many announcements. It was only after she became famous in "My Name is a Singer" that she came into contact with some excellent music resources.
At first she came here to find another job. Although there were many notices looking for her, they were actually not very good. Not to mention that Xi Mengze didn’t like them, even she didn’t like them.
In addition, Xi Mengze is not very career-minded and works half-playing and half-working in the industry. If she hadn't accepted a travel-related music variety show this year, she would have considered letting Xi Mengze act in a drama. .
If you are good at singing, you will act, and if you are good at acting, you will direct. This is a very common thing in the industry.
-
“Ding dong ding dong ding dong!”
A rapid sound of the doorbell rang.
“Come on, come on!”
Xi Mengze stayed up late last night reading comics. He just woke up and yawned and opened the door.
She made an appointment with Qinglian today to go to a certain variety show recording location and went to have fun. She thought it was Qinglian who was here.
When she opened the door and saw that it was Sister Fang, she immediately straightened her body and said with some guilt: "Sister Fang, why are you here?"
Sui Lingfang knew her living habits, And there was no criticism.
Anyway, Xi Mengze has not worked these days, so she can have fun as she wants.
As long as it is not in this state when running the notification.
Sui Lingfang said: "There are two announcements. I don't want you to choose, but I want you to try them out simultaneously.
One is an acting announcement. This is a TV series, the resources are pretty good, and you are working with a movie star. You play the female lead.
The other one is a movie promotion song, this is Jinli's movie " The director originally wanted Jinli to sing for the promotion song of "Dream Builder", but Jinli was not good at it, so he asked you to sing.
The movie promotion song requires you to audition a few songs first, but you may not be able to choose. , How about you first-"
"I'll take the announcement of the movie promotion song first!" Xi Mengze said immediately.
She poured Sui Lingfang a glass of water in a flattering manner and said with a smile: "Sister Fang, I prefer singing to acting. I'd better finish singing first and then watch the acting."
Xi Mengze's in the original work The official partner is the best actor of this drama, but because things have changed a lot, Mengmeng's love interest is not him. This is the change in the plot.
