Chapter 436 Empathy


Chapter 436: Empathy

After solving the house problem, Xu Kun devoted his main energy to the promotion of "Assembly Number".

In the early stage, I mainly participated in interview programs on major TV stations, or accepted interviews with newspapers and magazines.

Originally, it was Feng Xiaogang who brought Xu Kun, Deng Chao, and Huang Xiaoming to the show. The three of them had the most important roles and were also the most famous.

When the day came, Wang Zhonglei came to speak for Deng Chao, saying that Deng Chao was currently filming a TV series produced by Huayi. The crew worked overtime and really couldn't spare the time.

Feng Xiaogang was a little unhappy at that time, but Deng Chao had just starred in "Struggle" and even overshadowed Huang Xiaoming who starred in "New Shanghai Beach".

If Xu Kun hadn’t recently come up with a gimmick of being an ‘entertainment economist’, he might have eclipsed the popularity.

In addition, Xu Kun and Wang Zhonglei helped to explain Xiang, and Feng Xiaogang didn't say anything in the end. He just replaced Deng Chao with Zhang Hanyu.

Afterwards, Xu Kun called Deng Chao and complained: "What you did is not authentic. Director Feng was very unhappy because of the drama. If it weren't for watching Xiao Wang To sum up the reputation of Teacher Liu Heng [Liu Heng is the screenwriter], I have fallen out with you a long time ago, and now you are doing this again..."

"There is nothing I can do!"

Deng Chao also has his own complaints: "The company took advantage of the popularity of "Struggle" and gave me several dramas and a lot of commercials. Now I am so busy that I don't even have time to call Sun Li, and I have to hang out. Trying my best to think of how to install it Touch her..."

Hua Yi is indeed responsible for more than half of this matter, but Xu Kun doesn't believe it is all Hua Yi's fault. After all, at the level of Deng Chao, there are already Room for bargaining with the company.

Not to mention that this is a movie meant to promote the company.

If he takes the announcement of "Assembly Number" to heart, he will definitely be able to make time in advance - he doesn't have to spare nearly two months like Xu Kun, he can just attend a few events. become.

"I don't care about you. Anyway, I will notify you if you need to be informed. If you really offend Director Feng badly later, please don't point your finger at me."

After Xu Kun finished speaking, he hung up the phone immediately.

Is there something poisonous about "Struggle"? Why are the male and female actors so awesome?

“Director Xu~”

Xu Kun hung up the phone and was about to go back to review the interview process, but was intercepted halfway by Wang Zhonglei.

Wang Zhonglei smiled and handed over a note: "Suffering, if someone asks about the Deng Dynasty, just follow this."

Xu Kun glanced at it and found that it read: Deng Chao was sorry. He always called and said that he and his brothers from the Nine Company were not able to endure hardships together, were not able to sacrifice together in the play, and now have no way to follow the army. I feel very embarrassed to be promoting "Assembly Number".

After reading it, Xu Kun shook the note and asked: "Second brother, has Director Feng seen this?"

"What about that, go back and show it to Director Feng. Let's see."

Wang Zhonglei said sarcastically: "I won't get into trouble with this."

Xu Kun nodded and entered the conference room of the publicity department.

As soon as he sat down next to Feng Xiaogang, the assistant, wearing the first-generation bare-leg artifact, diligently placed the process and script in front of him, while showing off his profound career line.

Hmm~

This girl’s center of gravity is too forward, so she will definitely not be able to shoot action scenes.

Xu Kun opened the script and handed the note to Feng Xiaogang.

Feng Xiaogang glanced at it and sneered: "You have to build a memorial arch to be a bitch."

"Then, should we build this archway for him?"

"Li, I don't care about anything now, I just hope that the movie can be released safely and smoothly!"

Feng Xiaogang again Pushed the note back.

So for the next few interviews he participated in, Xu Kun helped Deng Chao build a memorial arch. There was nothing he could do about it. He was the only one among the four who was friends with Deng Chao. After participating in the previous interviews, Huang Xiaoming also quietly left the show, and was replaced by the heroine Qin Lan - Zhong Baoqiang and Ren Hu also replaced Zhang Hanyu, but in general, Zhang Hanyu showed up for the longest time.

After running around like this for half a month, the day of the premiere of "Assembly" finally arrived.

Huayi spared no expense this time and held a large-scale celebration ceremony directly at the BJ Workers Stadium - this premiere cost a total of 10 million, and its momentum was comparable to "People on the Road" "It was much bigger when it premiered.

But things are so strange sometimes. Originally, the Wang brothers had made up their minds to make money at a loss, treating it as part of their publicity funds.

Who would have known that after the film became famous, sponsors would flock to it. For a cost of 10 million, the sponsors paid 8.5 million, and the box office revenue of the premiere was 3.5 million.

After calculating the inside and outside, there was still a small profit.

Wang Zhonglei was so proud that when "Operation Kunpeng" was released, he would make a bigger and more lively one.

The day of the premiere was naturally packed with stars.

With such a big scene, there is naturally a lot of pressure. The leading role of Xu Kun is okay. Feng Xiaogang heard that he couldn't sleep for two days and could only rely on sleeping pills to close his eyes.

So Xu Fan has been following him every step of the way since the morning, preparing a large package of antihypertensive drugs, Suxiao Jiuxin Pills and so on - two doctors were invited to the backstage, one Chinese and one Western. Be prepared.

Deng Chao finally showed up, and when he saw Feng Xiaogang, he straightened up and apologized.

Feng Xiaogang originally wanted to ignore him, but Xu Fan pinched him, and then helped Wang Zhonglei to come forward to make peace. In the end, he just said haha ​​and made some perfunctory remarks.

This can only be regarded as a small episode.

What really makes Feng Xiaogang unhappy is that he specially attended the premiere of "The Call to Action" a while ago and even sang praises to Chen Kexin at the scene.

As a result, it was the premiere of "Assembly", but Chen Kexin did not show up at all. Feng Xiaogang was angry and cursed the Hong Kong people for not following the rules. It was not until Mr. Xu arrived that his face looked a little better.

Watching from the sidelines, Xu Kun could clearly see that Feng Xiaogang had a bit of inferiority complex towards the Hong Kong director, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to flatter the other person and still care so much about whether the other party responded.

This is also a common problem among many mainland film and television people nowadays.

Fortunately, it is not far away before the real decline of the Hong Kong film and television industry.

As for the major mainland directors, although Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige did not come, they sent their wives to support them.

Here, Xu Kun focused on Chen Ting, a girl from Beijing Film Academy who is one year younger than himself. Although she has not yet received a certificate from Lao Mouzi, she has already given birth to him. Two sons and one daughter.

Speaking of it, Zhang Yimou is really old and strong. I saw that a man who is almost 60 years old can still hold three people in his arms for five years.

This inspection obviously caused some misunderstandings.

Chen Hong leaned close to the ears of Xu Fan and Jiang Wenli, curled her lips and said: "Look, look, it turns out that we are still young and attract people's attention. We are all yellow-faced women that no one wants to see. "Here."

Jiang Wenli didn't say anything, but secretly cheered up.

Xu Fan glanced at Chen Hong in confusion. Although it was not obvious, she could faintly smell some jealousy from it - could it be that Xu Kun lied? There was really some connection between the two secretly. ?

However, Chen Hong felt sorry for herself, and she could feel the same. After all, Feng Xiaogang had recently gained a 'confidante' around him.

Originally, Xu Fan didn't care that much about this kind of thing, but the other party could barely be considered her junior. Although he was not related by blood, it still made her feel a little uncomfortable.

This rabbit doesn’t even eat the grass beside the nest!
