Chapter 366 Official Announcement Countdown
In the following days.
Lee Kwang Soo and Yoo In Na accompanied Kim Qi Xuan to participate in several variety shows one after another.
There are live interviews like Park Kyung-lin, outdoor reality shows like "RM", and meet-and-greets at various universities.
Except "I am alone".
Basically, Jin Qixuan has appeared in all the most popular variety show types on the market, and has gone to great lengths to build momentum for the release of "When Men Fall in Love" at the end of August, making the movie extremely popular.
The publicity department of the publishing company has launched a discussion on the topic #When Men Are in Love# on the Internet.
The number of visitors has exceeded 7 million.
The reason why he didn't appear in "I'm Alone" was because Jin Qixuan didn't want to expose his mansion.
After all, wealth should not be revealed in vain.
Besides, the house is full of traces of Li Zhien’s life.
So, he found various reasons to shirk it.
The program team of "I'm Alone" is very sorry about this, but there is nothing they can do about it.
You can’t just buy an ordinary house just for the last episode, right?
That doesn’t make sense!
August 22nd.
There are still 6 days until the official announcement date set by Jin Qixuan and Li Zhien.
At this time, pre-sale tickets for Li Zhien’s official concert at the Cannibal Stadium have been opened.
The theme is [Lovepoem·Love Poems].
Thirty-five thousand tickets were sold out by enthusiastic fans in less than a minute as soon as they went online.
Li Zhien also tried to grab tickets himself, but found that he couldn't get them at all...
at the same time.
On the other side, Jin Qixuan is communicating with various brands he endorses.
Although the official announcement of the young couple does not need to be as cautious as idols.
But it is also a big deal for them.
Especially the endorsed products.
Some merchants just don’t like the appearance of love, marriage, etc. in their spokespersons, which may affect product sales.
For example, Song Joong Ki lost a lot of endorsements after his official announcement with Song Hye Kyo.
You know, Song Joong Ki was so red at that time that he turned purple.
Internal entertainment even offered a sky-high salary of 100 million RMB.
It can be said that Korean entertainment in 2016 belongs to Song Joong Ki (Descendants of the Sun) and Gong Yoo (Train to Busan).
But even just that.
After his official announcement, whether he should give up the endorsement or not.
Jin Qixuan had chosen him to be the spokesperson for Kaishi Beer.
Although, actors rely on passers-by, not fans.
However, Jin Qixuan’s situation is special.
He really likes fans.
After all, without the strong purchasing power of these fans, he would not be able to support his six luxury endorsements.
Internationally, the public first knows the fashion icon Jin Qixuan.
Then there is actor Jin Qixuan.
In the final analysis, as an actor, Jin Qixuan's reputation in the Peninsula and even Asia is sufficient.
But in terms of popularity in Europe and the United States, he is still not as good as the fashion circle.
Therefore, Jin Qixuan has to communicate with the brands one by one.
For these brands, Jin Qixuan did not hide them, but took the initiative to tell them about his preparations for official announcements.
Three brands, such as Gucci, Zenith, and Bulgari, all know that they have obtained the certificate, and they are 100% supportive of this matter.
After all, which celebrity doesn’t fall in love or get married?
Sooner or later.
Besides, this is a peninsula where dogs have to fall in love.
Therefore, brand owners are not surprised by this situation.
Brands such as the later Berluti leather shoes and the newly signed Montblanc pen had only one request for Jin Qixuan's official announcement.
That is - during the official announcement, make their brand popular, preferably on a hot search or something.
This is simple.
When the time comes, it will be enough for Jin Qixuan to attend Li Zhien’s concert in formal attire.
The accessory pocket square is replaced by a Montblanc pen, which is also convenient for signing autographs for fans.
Although it is a bit strange, there is nothing we can do about it...
Jin Qixuan endorses these 6 luxury goods.
Only Neon’s SK-11 said that after Jin Qixuan’s official announcement, they will first see how the market reacts before deciding whether to continue cooperation.
Jin Qixuan expressed his understanding of this.
After all, SK-11’s audience is female.
It is true that they like Jin Qixuan’s handsome face, but if he officially announces his relationship, they may feel a little uncomfortable.
On the Peninsula, most brand owners are indifferent to Jin Qixuan's official announcement.
Samsung Electronics, KB Financial, GM Sunglasses, Kaishi Beer, etc. all have long-term contracts with Jin Qixuan.
Even when the time comes, they will post blessings to increase the popularity, increase brand exposure, and stimulate product sales.
Of course, if there is support, there will naturally be those who terminate the contract.
Such as - Dog food and couple sportswear endorsed by Park Bo Young; Duty Free Shop endorsed by Han Hyo Joo; Samsonite suitcase endorsed by Bae Suzy.
These brands have all stated that they will not renew their contracts when they expire.
It was a good time to get together and part ways, and I would like to thank him for the exposure he has brought to the product and the growth of KPIs over the years.
In this regard, Jin Qixuan also expressed his gratitude to the brand owners for their support over such a long time.
That’s it.
Jin Qixuan only has 17 endorsements left, and there is still one SK-11 to monitor the market situation.
However, these remaining endorsements on him.
Any one of them can be worth 3 to 4 times the endorsement fee of ordinary products.
Watching Jin Qixuan’s endorsements drop from more than 30 at his peak to 17 today, and may even drop to 16.
Sheng Bingxu, who has grown up with him all the way to this day, is really heartbroken.
This is an endorsement! Not the cabbage and radish that can be seen everywhere on the street.
You know, there are so many artists in the Peninsula who are struggling to get even one endorsement.
Jin Qixuan was lucky, he dropped so many at once.
There’s even a luxury item!
Although, Sheng Bingxu understands.
With Jin Qixuan’s ability to attract money, these endorsements will come back sooner or later.
But I feel very distressed.
After all, this was all negotiated by him one endorsement after another.
Some merchants were very difficult to deal with, and it took him a lot of effort to defeat them.
Just like the ones I missed on Lee Min Ho and Kim Soo Hyun.
As a result, when Jin Qixuan and Li Zhien wanted to make official announcements, these endorsements were dropped.
It hurts to think about it.
In fact, not only Jin Qixuan lost endorsements, but Li Zhien also lost many endorsements.
Some brands even said when terminating the contract, "You IU shouldn't be in a relationship, you should be single for the rest of your life and stay safe for your fans."
Li Zhien was so angry that he wanted Bangbang to punch them twice.
However, most businesses recognize our Zhien’s ability to attract money.
If you don’t see it, since Baicai endorsed Jinro Soju, compared with the KPI when Lee Ji-eun endorsed Jinro, it has lost more than 37 billion won in just 8 months.
The stock market is getting a green light all the way.
So, even if Li Zhien officially announced his relationship.
As long as the man is not a bad artist, the brands don't care.
Anyway, those who should buy should still buy.
Actually, for Li Zhien, losing some endorsements is a good thing.
After all, she endorses so many types of products that they are becoming saturated.
Just take advantage of this opportunity to "reduce the burden" on yourself so that you can accept some high-end endorsement products in the future.
August 25th.
After these days of busy work, Jin Qixuan finally solved all the problems of brand owners.
To this end, he also specially pushed several announcements.
After all, some brand owners are in Europe and the United States, and they need to overcome the time difference to communicate with them.
After going back and forth, I didn’t get a good rest.
That afternoon.
Jin Qixuan attended the VIP preview of "When a Man Loves" on time.
At the scene, countless actors came to the stage for Jin Qixuan.
It can be said that basically all the actors who have worked with or know Jin Qixuan are here.
Even Hyun Bin, who is filming the love story, also brought Son Ye Jin with him.
At the scene, Jin Qixuan kept saying hello to the actors and idols present.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the VIP preview of the movie
The actors and idols present also expressed their hope that Jin Qixuan's movie will be a hit and make history.
Of course, whether you can create history depends on your fate. It’s not just about the actors, casts and movie quality.
You also have to look at the movies that are released at the same time, as well as the number of movies scheduled, and even the mood of the moviegoers that day can affect the box office of the movie.
Very complicated.
But no matter how you look at it.
Jin Qixuan’s movie is basically not going to hit the streets.
After all, Peninsula’s movie box office basically relies on passers-by.
Fans can’t support the box office.
And Jin Qixuan’s passers-by are considered to be the strongest among the actors in Peninsula.
Cinema scene.
After Jin Qixuan chatted with the actors for a while, he started the test screening of the movie.
During the movie.
The atmosphere at the scene was sometimes quiet, sometimes bursting with laughter.
However, as the movie progressed, more than half of it passed.
The laughter turned into bursts of sobs.
Listening to the sobs from his colleagues, Jin Qixuan knew that this movie was done.
Actually, it’s not just them.
Even Jin Qixuan himself was crying.
This was also the first time he watched the film since filming.
When filming at that time, Jin Qixuan only focused on interpreting the character's heart and did not think about the meaning of this scene.
But now.
Along with Kim Taeyeon's plaintive singing, watching the two people in the video crying to each other under the dim street lights, an indescribable emotion lingered in my heart.
Sadness, helplessness, distress, regret...
All kinds of emotions were like a big hand, clutching his heart tightly, making him breathless.
And the end of the video.
Before his death, Han Taiyi, played by Jin Qixuan, had a flashback monologue while sitting at the table eating ramen, which made people with low tears break their guard.
“Dad, actually, I once had a chance and almost got married.”
"But, I screwed it up."
"She works at KB Bank in front of the market. She is very beautiful, with fair skin. She is simply a goddess."
"And, she Very kind, she took care of him even when her father was ill in bed.”
"But such a kind-hearted woman...how could I tell her about my illness? I can't bear to let her suffer such pain."
"I am just a passerby and will disappear soon."
“Dad, if I’m not here, she will live well, right?”
"She no longer has a father. From now on, Dad, you will be her father..."
"Because she is the only woman your son loves deeply..."
"... ”
As the movie ends.
Many female spectators at the scene had red eyes and wet tears on their faces.
This movie is a tragedy.
For two people who love each other, it is the greatest tragedy for one to die and the other to live alone with guilt.
The movie ends.
The theater lights are on.
Jin Qixuan also broke away from the mood of the movie.
He stood up, bowed and thanked the actors present:
“Thank you to all my seniors and friends for taking the time out of their busy schedules to attend the VIP preview of the movie...”
at the same time.
The idols and actors who had recovered applauded and congratulated Jin Qixuan on the success of his movie.
Looking at the crying girls, an inexplicable sense of accomplishment rose in my heart.
An actor's greatest honor is to play his role well.
It gives the audience a strong sense of involvement and makes them happy or sad because of the plot.
Without a doubt.
Jin Qixuan did it.
"Qixuan, you deceived me this time. Didn't you say it was a super sweet love movie? My makeup was so wet that I cried..."
At the end of the show, Lin Yoona, who had panda eyes, came to him to ask for an explanation.
On the side, Kim Taeyeon, whose eyes were filled with tears, also nodded repeatedly.
“What brand did you use?”
“Huh?”
Lin Yuner didn't turn around for a while.
"I said, which brand of cosmetics are you using? It's not very waterproof. Avoid this trap and don't buy this brand for my Zhien in the future."
"..."< br>
After giving Jin Qixuan a huge roll of his eyes, Lin Yoona took Kim Taeyeon and walked away without looking back.
After the two left.
Zheng Haoyan brought Jin Zhini to get to know Jin Qixuan.
The two are good friends.
One is a world model who is a frequent visitor to Chanel shows, and the other is Chanel’s brand ambassador.
The two are similar in age, and they have become good friends as soon as they go back and forth.
It should be said that after being "embarrassed" in "Fifteen Nights on Business" some time ago, Jin Qixuan really went back to brush up on girl group knowledge.
The Jin Zhini’s love skills are indeed many times better than her stage singing and dancing skills.
To be honest, Jin Qixuan knew all the boyfriends she was talking about...
After a brief exchange of greetings and a brief introduction, the two of them left.
After all, there were too many people at the scene.
Li Zhien didn't come again. Jin Qixuan greeted them all by himself. He really didn't have time to talk too much with them.
Most of the waiting staff have left.
Jin Qixuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It can be said that this VIP preview was very successful.
People present were very considerate. After watching the movie, they all promoted Jin Qixuan on social platforms.
This also adds to the popularity of "When Men Fall in Love", which has already been heavily promoted.
Online.
News about the VIP preview screening of "When a Man Loves" has also been reported one after another.
【Kim Qixuan & IU's new film "When a Man Falls in Love" held a VIP preview this afternoon. 】
【Half of the entertainment industry’s actors are here! Jin Qixuan card! 】
[Jin Qixuan and IU talked about their "sweet" love in the movie! 】
【……】
In addition to the online press releases, the movie "When Men Fall in Love" already has hundreds of comments on the Naver film review website.
These are all messages from professional film critics and media who attended the media preview and VIP preview, as well as interactions with some movie fans waiting for the release.
“This movie is really beautiful. The love between the male and female protagonists is like a glass of sweet poisonous wine. You know you will die, but you still drink it without hesitation. It’s hard to let go!”< br>
“Is the ending be?”
"Upstairs, I won't tell you whether the ending is be, but this movie is definitely worth watching. Jin Qixuan's acting skills are simply amazing, and so is IU's. When the two of them cry, my heart will break!"
“The best tear-jerking movie of 2019, bar none.”
“Don’t listen to their nonsense, this movie is super sweet! So sweet!”
"Ah, yes, it's super sweet. Everyone, feel free to watch the movie. It's best to take your partner to watch it with you!"
"..."
To be fair, the movie "When a Man Falls in Love" was made good.
Although the story is a bit cliché, it is truly tear-jerking.
Film critics who have seen the movie beforehand and cried like dogs in order to deceive the audience who have not watched the movie, tacitly praise the things that are worthy of praise.
Selectively ignored the cruel part in the second half.
——Isn’t it nice for everyone to go away happily and come back crying?
After all, the abuse in movies cannot be called abuse, it is called art!
And the movie is really good, we didn’t lie to you!
Take advantage of this heat.
Jin Qixuan also posted an Instagram post about his upcoming relationship.
“She is like a ray of light that shines into my life and brings me hope and warmth. August 31st, it’s time to fall in love, it’s time to like, we’ll see you there or not. @dlwlrma【 Picture][Picture]"
The two pictures below are posters for the movie "When a Man Loves".
Not long after Jin Qixuan posted, Li Zhien also posted immediately.
“I am lucky to have met him. I hope everyone can pay more attention to our new movie. It will not disappoint you! Wait for you on August 31st! @actorjinqixuan[Picture][Picture] ”
The picture that Lee Ji Eun matched was not a movie poster, but a photo of her and Jin Qixuan.
It’s already an obvious hint.
At the same time.
The theaters that Peninsula has signed contracts with Warner Bros. have also placed the posters of "When Men Fall in Love" in the most eye-catching positions.
The online pre-sale box office channel has also been officially opened.
