Chapter 176: Each one shows his/her special powers in the warm-up of the new year film (I wish everyone a happy New Year and all the best)
After three days of overwhelming publicity, the first version of the trailer of "Brave Citizen" officially exceeded 3.5 million views. The number of pre-sale tickets has also exceeded 700,000, and it is heading towards one million.
To achieve such good pre-sales results, in addition to the large amount of publicity funds spent by the crew, they also benefited from the popularity of Jin Qixuan in "Ghost".
But the most important thing is that it hasn't been diverted by other movies.
December 18th.
The crews of "The Help" and "The King" one after another announced the premiere scheduled for January 18, and exposed the main posters of the actors and a version of the trailer.
As soon as the promotional videos for these two movies came out, the Internet went crazy.
【What is this for? A great start to the new year? 】
【Hyun Bin! ! Hyun Bin! ! Hyun Bin! ! 】
[Oh, I didn’t expect Yoona to be included in the movie "Together". 】
【Which husband should I look at first? What a worry for happiness...】
[My uncle! ! ! 】
["The King" actually has wuli dog Zhengba! ! ! 】
【The trailers of the three movies "Brave Citizen", "Help" and "The King" are all very nice! I don’t know who will be the box office champion at the beginning of the new year. 】
……
...
The heated discussion on the Internet has become more and more intense. It is precisely because of this that the diversion of publicity for the two movies "The King" and "The Help" has a great impact on "Brave Citizen".
Judging from the official backend data, both the number of clicks on the promotional video and the speed of pre-order ticket purchases for "Brave Citizen" have begun to decline.
If displayed according to the curve chart: →.
The next day, the cumulative views of the promotional video of "Brave Citizen" in the four days exceeded 4 million, and 800,000 pre-order tickets were sold;
The viewing volume of the promotional video of "Help" on the first day exceeded 4 million. 2 million+, with 400,000 pre-order tickets; (Hyun Bin appeared on camera again after three years, and his appeal is still as terrifying)
Driven by the two-step movie, the first-day promotional video of "The King" had around 1.3 million views and 330,000 pre-order tickets.
If it hadn't been for taking the lead, "Brave Citizen" would have been destroyed by now...
So in the current situation, even if the crew of "Brave Citizen" has achieved He has the opportunity, but he is about to face the tragedy of having his anus exploded.
Because of this, the crew of "Brave Citizen" hurriedly released the second version of the promotional video.
In the second version of the promotion, 60% of the footage is fighting, with punches to the flesh and smooth and graceful action design. The audience said it was extremely enjoyable.
Except for the fight, Jin Qixuan’s independent shots account for 20%, and Han Hyo-joo’s independent shots account for 10%. However, in this version of the edit, Han Hyo-joo is in the image of a delicate female teacher, focusing on contrast.
However, the only thing that has not changed between the second version and the first version of the promotional video is the scene at the beginning where Han Xiao kicks KOHAHA.
This also resulted in Jin Qixuan not daring to answer HAHA’s calls from the day the movie’s promotional video was released.
The release of the second promotional video for "Brave Citizen" successfully withstood the diversion of competition between the two films, and the backend data once again showed an upward trend.
After that, the three crews all sent actors to participate in various variety shows to promote the movie.
In terms of appearing on variety shows, Lin Yoona’s idol advantage as the popular person in charge of the "Help" crew has emerged.
They have a lot of experience, have fun, and have no baggage. They are familiar with each host. Therefore, the effect of their program will naturally be much better than that of the other two crews.
Of course, Jin Qixuan and Han Xiaozhou also have a unique advantage - publicity from fashion magazines.
However, Jin Qixuan has finished filming the "2017 GQ Annual Issue" and needs to shoot the February issue to promote the movie.
The February issue is considered a low-season month, so it is not difficult to get a double cover due to connections.
So the current situation is that the three crews are showing off their talents and warming up for the new year's film war.
December, 20th, three o'clock in the afternoon.
"Brave Citizen" took the lead in holding a film press conference.
The host of this press conference is the same as the "Ghost" press conference.
This sister’s business skills are very good, and her field control and emotional intelligence are also very high.
The very professional business skills she displayed at the press conference of "Ghost" left a deep impression on Jin Qixuan.
Because of this, Jin Qixuan greeted her very warmly and respectfully backstage.
After a while, Jin Qixuan introduced the host to Han Xiaozhou and Lin Runze who were late.
Lin Runze is an acquaintance. From the Blue House to the homeless, he can chat with anyone for a while.
As the host has been in the industry for so many years, he can naturally talk freely and pick up on anything. The two of them chatted quite well for a while.
Han Xiaozhou is not a person who recognizes life, and he has lived several years longer than Lin Runze and Jin Qixuan. He has rich life experience, so he can naturally keep up with the pace of their chat.
Jin Qixuan, who was quite talkative at first, seemed to be intimidated in front of the three of them. With a smile on his face, he stood silently listening to their conversation, unable to interrupt at all.
This scene lasted until the staff urged the host to come on stage.
After the host and the three people took their temporary leave, Lin Runze angrily patted Jin Qixuan on the shoulder:
"Why didn't you speak just now? If you don't cultivate your relationship with the host, What should I do if I make things difficult for you on stage? The audience is full of reporters, and they will send you hot topics every minute.”
Jin Qixuan rolled his eyes and said angrily:
“I want to speak, but your mouths are beeping like machine guns! I can’t get a word in!”
< br>"Okay, I'll talk less on stage later, and you talk more."
"Okay."
Soon, after the host warmed up, he began to call a few people to come on stage.
"Now, please invite the director of "Brave Citizen" Lim Yoon-taek xi, and the leading actors Han Hyo-joo xi and Kim Qixuan xi to come on stage. Please give me some applause."
"Bah bang bang..."
After the host finished speaking, the lights on the scene became extremely dim, and the three people walked out from the side stage.
“We first saw director Lim Yoon-taek, Han Hyo-joo xi and Kim Qi-hyun xi taking to the stage.”
Then, the flash clicked on, turning the dark scene into daylight.
When the three of them stood still, they bowed to the audience with the host and said hello.
Then, at the greeting of the host, the four of them took their seats.
"The microphone is behind the seat."
Seeing that the three people took their seats without hesitation, the host quickly reminded them.
Hearing this, the three of them jumped up instantly as if they were sitting on red-hot coals.
Seeing the synchronized movements of the three gods, the host couldn't help laughing:
"hhh... Okay, let's first ask Director Lin Runze to greet the reporters on site."
"Hello everyone, I am Lin Runze, the director of the movie "Brave Citizen". Thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to today's press conference."
"Okay, please introduce the role of Han Hyo-joo xi."
"Hello everyone, I am Han Hyo-joo who plays Xiao Shimin in "Brave Citizen". Nice to meet you."
" Nice to meet you, next one, Jin Qixuanxi~"
Jin Qixuan could naturally tell that the host's voice became much softer when he called him.
Perhaps, this is the benefit of being good-looking~
“Hello everyone! I am Jin Qixuan, who plays Han Xiugang in "Brave Citizen". Nice to meet you."
After the three introductions were completed, the film conference officially began. "The movie "Brave Citizen" is based on a web comic. When the Naver web comic was serialized, it gained explosive popularity with a high rating of 9.8, and even spread to Neon."
< br>
“Everyone should be curious about these two striking actors and their characters, so we have prepared for cross-border dialogues. Now we want to share with you, the relationship between myself and my characters. Changes before and after the camera.”
"First of all, when the camera is on, let me tell you the story of the character you play. Let's start with Han Xiaozhouxi."
"Ah, guilt. I was originally, um... a boxer with good prospects. After becoming a trainee teacher, well...a friend who worked hard to endure injustice in order to become a full-time teacher."
Han Xiaozhou's pause in the middle was to reflect on the experience of the character. After all, it has been half a year since the filming was completed. It really takes some thinking to ask.
After listening, the host asked:
"The reason why Han Xiaozhouxi chose to star in this work is because he felt the charm of this character?"
"Yes, because it is a drama It’s a serious action movie. Although I’m not very capable, I really like this character and it feels very refreshing, so I want to give it a try.”
"Is it the kind of role you really want to play?"
"Yes."
"It can be said that Xiao Shimin is a character who has been enduring for the sake of social life. Just like her name Likewise, a strong young lady who only looks at others in social life leads a double life. This character perfectly expresses these characteristics. ”
So well said!
Listening to the host's perfect summary, Jin Qixuan and Lin Runze raised their hands in synchronization with a tacit understanding and gently applauded his speech from the side.
Seeing this, the host smiled and said:
"Okay, now that the camera is off, you can speak more casually. Xiao Shimin is such a person: she pretends not to see injustice, pretends to have no temper, pretends to be weak, she is such a three-dressing character."
" Hahaha..."
The host's summary was so insightful that the three of them laughed out loud at the same time.
The host was able to summarize the characters so well before the movie was released. It was obvious that he had read the "Brave Citizen" webcom in advance and done enough homework.
“But what is Han Hyo-joo like in real life?”
“Well...in reality, I...neither pretend to be weak, nor hypocritical, nor pretend to be patient. , Mainly because I don’t have that ability (laughs). I don’t have much strength, so I just don’t have any ideas.”
What Han Xiaozhou said before was serious and realistic.
But after hearing this, Jin Qixuan had already started to purse his lips and suppress a smile.
“Are you so humble? We have seen so many of your works so far!”
"Ah...hahaha..."
Han Xiaozhou pulled back his hair by his ears and said with a smile:
"Xiao Shimin will try to hold back when she sees injustice. But I But it’s because I don’t have the ability to stop it, so I can only endure it.”
Han Xiaozhou's words were pun-intended, as if he was explaining to the public why he remained silent in the first place.
“Ah, Xiao Shimin can stop it but he can control himself, but he himself has no ability to stop it.”
The host with high emotional intelligence naturally heard the implication of Han Xiaozhou’s words and spoke up for her concluded.
"Yes, I don't even pretend to be weak with my fists, because I have a cotton fist."
As he said that, Han Xiaozhou raised his hand to show off his white and tender fists.
“It seems that although Han Xiaozhouxi is connected with Xiao Shimin in his heart, he actually has no way to imitate her.”
Seeing Han Xiaozhou pretending to be cute and nodding his head repeatedly, Jin Qixuan pursed his lips, took a deep breath, and looked into the distance.
The host, who was looking in all directions, naturally saw Jin Qixuan’s strange behavior and started to cue him:
"Jin Qixuanxi seems to have something to say? Could it be that what Han Xiaozhouxi just said is not true? ?”
Jin Qixuan picked up the microphone and hesitated to speak. He turned around and glanced at Han Xiaozhou's threatening eyes. He slowly shook his head at the host and said:
"No, Sister Han Xiaozhou's real appearance in private is the same as what she just said. It’s exactly the same.”
“Yes, I’m like that~”
Jin Qixuan didn't know what she was pretending to be. It was obvious that she had a punch score of 8800 points in a variety show before.
Perhaps he is trying to save his image and really wants to get married...
"Okay, let's take a look at Han Xiugang's role. Jin Qixuanxi was recently played in "Goblin" He played a very eye-catching role, so when "Goblin" was first aired, everyone was calling him a coward. …”
"Pfft...hahaha..."
The hearty laughter of Han Xiaozhou interrupted the host's speech.
Seeing the three people looking at him in surprise, Han Xiaozhou lowered his head in embarrassment and covered his face with his hair to avoid looking at them.
Seeing this, the host continued:
"I think there should be reporters present on the day of the "Ghost" press conference. Jin Qixuanxi's image and aura is different now from that day. How well-behaved he seems now. , just like the milk man. Yes, today is the milk man, really gentle.”
I don’t know which sentence made Han Xiaozhou laugh again, she seemed to be laughed at. It's the same as the acupoint, and it keeps saying "hahaha".
Seeing this, the host ignored her and continued to cue Jin Qixuan:
"But this is the first time that Jin Qixuanxi's work challenges the villain. Please introduce Han Xiugang to everyone."
Jin Qixuan picked up the microphone and said:
"The person I play, Han Xiugang, was persuaded to drop out and transfer to another school because he beat someone up in the previous school. So he is slightly older than his classmates and has more strength. Bullying others is like a common occurrence. , and he takes pleasure in it and enjoys it. He is a pure bad breed.”
“He is such a bad breed, but now he behaves like a gentle big dog with tears in his eyes. He said he was a bad person."
The host's tone was full of endearment, and he seemed to particularly like Jin Qixuan.
What Jin Qixuan could respond to was a shy smile.
“I heard that Jin Qixuanxi paid a lot to transform into a villain. Can you tell us about it?”
“Well, Director Lin Runze left me a message during the preparation of the crew. I was given an assignment to make an evil look.”
"Then I looked up a lot of performance clips of senior actors. But the eyes they performed were not in line with my role, so I went to the prison to look at the murderers and learn their eyes. After that, I often looked at them. Practice in front of a mirror, wherever there is a mirror."
"Is it a crime to commit murder? It seems that Wuli Qixuan Xi has really worked hard for the role."
It's not just the host. , even the way Han Xiaozhou looked at Jin Qixuan changed.
"Yes, I remember when I showed that look for the first time, Hyeri Xi was shocked."
Recalling Li Huili's look, Jin Qixuan couldn't help but laugh.
“But Jin Qixuanxi says these words with kind eyes now, which we can’t imagine. So Jin Qixuanxi, come and show us your evil eyes!”
With that said, the host directed to Jin Qixuan:
"Come on, Qixuan Xi, use the reporters' cameras as mirrors to show them. Come on, get ready, one, two, three!"
< br>After hearing the command, Jin Qixuan lowered his head, and when he said "three", he looked up instantly.
However, due to the hasty preparation time and the lack of practice for a long time, Jin Qixuan's eyes did not look evil at all, but looked a bit like Erha's clear eyes with a stupid look.
Seeing this, Han Xiaozhou laughed mercilessly.
"Pfft hahahaha..."
Seeing this, Jin Qixuan also knew that he had not performed well and hurriedly explained:
"Wait a minute, I can't do it now... because I haven't done this for a long time, I am a little nervous."
"This won't work. Then all the previous practice will be in vain! In this way, we will give Qixuanxi some time to prepare and then show it off."
Jin Qixuan nodded obediently.
"Okay, then prepare, one, two, three!"
