Chapter 704: Fighting for the New Year, promotion is imminent
The industry has exploded.
Zhou Yutang proved to countless audiences what the box office appeal of a domestic entertainment leader is with nearly full marks.
"Detective Chinatown" has inherited the popularity of the Thieves series, and the discussion continues to rise.
Now, the pressure is on Lu Chuan.
Seeing Tang Tan becoming more and more enthusiastic, Lu Chuan's heart sank to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.
However, he didn't speak, and the Lu family couldn't help it anymore.
Lu Tianming, who has quite a lot of connections in the literary and art circles, finally couldn't hold it back. He took a step ahead of his son and fired off the cannons himself.
"Some people do this to show the movie in advance, which is completely unreasonable. Complying with the film and television schedule contract is very irresponsible, not only disrupting the market order, but also suppressing the release of the box office potential of other films.
Relevant departments should introduce policies as soon as possible to allow such large-scale early screenings. It is not fair to other films to be released.”
"Is this old guy suffering from Alzheimer's disease?"
Lu Tianming had a passionate confrontation with Han Han before. At that time, he led a small group of literati such as Gao Dagen and others to besiege the fledgling but outstanding Han Han.
But Zhou Yutang is not Han Han.
With his current influence and reputation, he is not a second thought in domestic entertainment.
It is simply not what these old men in the traditional literary circle can imagine.
However, Zhou Yutang was too lazy to pay attention to this old guy.
He doesn’t even need to take action.
Lu Han’s fans immediately smashed Lu Laodeng to pieces.
Since returning to China, Lu Han has become extremely popular and has good film and television resources, but he still focuses on honing his acting skills.
His efforts are seen by fans.
Now that you have finally been taken away by the Grand Governor, what kind of monster are you, old guy, jumping out to become a monster at this time?
Lu Han’s fans didn’t agree.
The extremely powerful combat power gave Lu Tianming a slight shock as he prepared to confront Zhou Yutang.
Even Gao Dageng, who spoke out for Lu Chuan, also suffered a severe blow.
I don’t know where those fans found the dirty information.
Including Lu Tianming, Gao Dagen, etc., Weibo has been massacred one after another, and it is estimated that even the blood pressure has gone up.
In fact, in the entertainment industry, Zhou Yutang was not the first to do some screenings.
As early as 2002, Lao Mouzi was ahead of the crowd. "Hero", which was a national sensation at that time, was screened in Shenzhen for 7 days before its release in order to qualify for an Oscar nomination.
Zhou Yutang crossed the river by feeling the stones of his predecessors and summed up a new set of playing methods that adapt to the current version.
"Those Years" had some screenings, but Governor Zhou was also a young newcomer at that time, and he was far from the appeal he has now. However, it also accumulated early reputation for the film and laid a solid foundation for its subsequent box office explosion. the basis of.
This time, the game was screened on a large scale ahead of schedule, which directly aroused public opinion and attention to the climax.
“This is another classic case of film and television marketing that can be included in textbooks. The reputation and results of screenings can themselves become the publicity points of the film.”
“This new marketing model will test the distribution and resource coordination capabilities of the Jiangdong Department.”
After industry insiders gathered together to analyze.
There are also many film and television companies that are ready to follow suit, but soon give up helplessly.
An approach like Zhou Yutang's will disrupt the theater's own film schedule. If they suddenly add more films to the schedule, they need to negotiate.
Many interests are involved, and only Zhou Yutang, who has a close relationship with theater chains and cinemas, can control the entire film and television channel upstream and downstream, and can he dominate the Chinese film market.
"Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the movie's box office success."
Han Han attended the premiere of "Tang Detective" in Beijing and congratulated with a smile.
Zhou Yutang shook hands and hugged him in a friendly manner, "Congratulations to you too, "Unexpectedly" has done well at the box office."
Han Han is the artistic director of this major online movie produced by Wanhe Tianyi that beats the Lunar New Year, and his Tingdong Pictures is one of the investors behind the scenes.
Although it is firmly suppressed by small steel cannons, this big online movie with a cost of at least 40 to 50 million, with a cast of little-known Internet celebrity actors, can achieve a box office of more than 300 million, and it still has a box office of more than 300 million. What kind of bike do you want?
Zhou Yutang and Guo Xiaosi couldn’t talk.
The relationship with Han Han is quite good.
The two chatted for a while, and when they were talking about his racing movie, people kept coming over.
Familiar and unfamiliar people all came up to exchange polite greetings and establish relationships.
Han Han looked for an opportunity to find Zhang Ruojun.
The last time they collaborated on "Unexpectedly" they had a great time. They became very close during this period. Zhou Yutang heard that Han Han was preparing the next movie, and Zhang Ruojun was the leading actor.
Meng Ziyi, who followed Zhou Shufang to the scene, only said hello to Zhou Yutang who was far away, and then returned to his seat.
Although I have a sweet smile on my face, I feel a little disappointed in my heart - I went to the styling room to dress up carefully for today's premiere.
Not to mention that she is as beautiful as a fairy, at least she is worthy of the title of the school beauty of Beijing Film Academy.
But Zhou Yutang only glanced at her lightly, without stopping his gaze, and continued to go about his own business.
While feeling depressed, Meng Ziyi couldn't help but feel secretly shocked after hearing Zhou Shufang's explanation.
A lot of big names came today. Those who were talking to Zhou Yutang, including the leaders of the film bureau and the bosses of the Long Publicity Department, all came to the platform in person.
La Peikang was at the premiere of "Tomb Raiders" on the other side. China Film Academy was also one of the producers of that movie.
Although he didn't come, Han Sanping, the former head of China Film Group Corporation, had a red face and was holding Governor Zhou's shoulders intimately while talking.
Excluding these big guys, the premiere was full of stars and celebrities.
Little Horse's Li Dagou is a good brother of Governor Zhou. Wang Changtian from Guangguang also came, Yinghuang's boss Yang, and Shanghai Film CEO Ren Zhonglun
Poet Chen and his wife brought their child Ah Se, Ning Hao and his wife, Xu Guangtou and his wife, Lu Yang, Wen Muye, and Guo Fan, the three major Jiangdong generals, were all present.
In addition, film school professors Zhou Xinxia and Wang Hongwei, directors Xie Fei, Chen Kexing, Section Chief Jia, etc. are also big names.
The star cast is even more exaggerated. The empress in blue, Zeng Li, is talking to Ni Ni, recreating a classic scene.
Zhang Ruojun, Tang Yixin, sisters Li Binbin, Teacher Fan, International Chapter, and Xu Jinglei took Li Gengxi alone to introduce her to producers and directors in the industry.
This kind of occasion also has social attributes.
Mr. Zhou and Liu Yifei were chatting and laughing. Among these four teams, Zhao Yanzi was missing.
There are also Zhao Liying and Zhang Tianai who are very popular this month, Jiangdong’s own Dilraba, Reyza, Yang Zi, Li Jian and Chen Xiao, etc.
Huang Xiaoming was filming in the Bay Province crew, but Qin Lan came to the scene for him, and Hu Ge, the first brother of the Tang Dynasty, led Jin Daxi.
Even Jay Chou and his sister-in-law Kun Ling came to the scene to support.
Meng Ziyi glanced at the Heavenly King’s Wife several times.
I heard that the other person was a young model. After giving birth to her daughter, her figure recovered well. She recently made a comeback and is preparing to develop into the film and television industry.
In the past few years, the media has been hyping Jay Chou and Zhou Yutang as the Double Weekly Kings. Meng Ziyi knew that the two had a good relationship.
Otherwise, Kunling would not have played a female supporting role in a drama arranged by Jiangdong.
“Fifty or sixty media companies came here alone!”
A Fei, a reporter who was listed as a friendly force of Jiangdong Entertainment, got his admission pass and entered the venue. There were many people squatting outside. His peers cast envious glances at him.
A new colleague next to me said excitedly: "Brother Fei, I have counted more than 200 celebrities from the film and television industry. This is no worse than an ordinary awards ceremony. Grand Governor Tai Te What a show.”
“Calm down, Governor Zhou’s premiere is basically like this.”
My colleague had just joined the company not long ago, and Ah Fei was the one to lead him in the field this time. He specifically told him: "Don't just look at it, pay attention to the angle when the time comes, and take pictures of the reactions of Zhou Yutang and Lu Han, as well as the guests Liu Yifei, Zhang Tianai, and Zhao Liying." "OK, Brother Fei."
The new colleague patted his chest and promised, "I, Mr. Chen from Yantai, will complete the task."
"."
A Fei's expression twitched slightly, feeling that this fellow from the same hometown was not very in tune.
But he soon didn't take it to heart and continued to do his own thing.
The creative team sat on the stage, facing the media reporters, sharing behind-the-scenes stories and the original intention of the film.
Some tidbits were released, and Zhou Yutang and Lu Han were naturally the subjects of interviews with reporters.
With his familiar face and pre-empted position, A Fei got the opportunity to ask questions, "Mr. Zhou, some professionals have raised objections to the large-scale advance screening of the movie. What do you think of this?"
“For commercial reasons, we did this advance screening.”
Zhou Yutang was very calm: "I didn't expect the effect to be so good. Thank you to the audience for supporting me. It's normal to have different opinions. If the producer is confident enough in his movie, he might as well give it a try."
Try and die.
A Fei was speechless.
If you want to do large-scale advance screenings, you have to open up relationships with theaters and let them schedule films!
He thought of a comment with a high number of likes on the Internet. This is like falling in love. A boy can only take the next step with the consent of a girl, otherwise it is sexual harassment.
"Director Ning, you are the producer of the movie. What do you think of Lu Han's acting skills?"
"Well done to Xiaolu. He performed this role very vividly and has a bright future."
Huahua The person in the sedan chair carried the person and took the microphone. Ning Hao praised him in a very social manner, causing Lu Han's fans to scream.
Including Zhou Yutang, everyone recognized his acting skills, as well as the innocent and lovely sister Zifeng.
Lu Han was a little flattered and said modestly, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for your support, Director Ning for your affirmation, and thank them for giving me such a high evaluation. There is actually a lot of room for improvement in my acting skills.
< br>
Since returning to China, I have been trying my best in everything I do. Under the arrangement of Mr. Zhou, I entered the Yamashita Academy to receive basic acting training. I am also grateful to Liu Tianchi and other teachers for their efforts.
I am honored to join Mr. Zhou's film and play the role of Qin Feng. As for the specifics, I will leave it to the audience to evaluate. ”
“In the future, I will continue to work hard and strive to bring you a better version of myself. ”
The interview ended and we entered the movie screening session.
The scene gradually became quiet.
Qin Feng plus Tang Ren.
One is silly and funny, the other is witty and calm.
This wonderful pair of detectives turned Tyrande's Chinatown upside down.
From beginning to end, the stories are intertwined, and there is constant laughter at the movie theater.
At the end, Sinuo, played by Zhang Zifeng, suddenly raised his head and showed a creepy smile.
There was another exclamation at the scene.
The audience was still discussing until the end of the movie, and their emotions were relieved by the ending song.
The applause sounded like thunder.
Zhou Yutang looked back and clapped gently.
The corner of his mouth quietly curled up with a hint of satisfaction.
This was not a request from him.
Except for the media who have a good relationship with Jiangdong, they were invited.
Most of them are well-known film critics with good reputations, as well as people from all walks of life in the industry, as well as a small number of lucky Jiangdong navy.
The large-scale early screenings have proved the quality of this movie and passed the test of the market.
After the screening, the media were even crazier than before: "Mr. Zhou, this is a wonderful movie, but at the end of the movie, does Sister Zifeng's smile and Gao Yuanyuan's phone call mean anything? Will there be a new story? ”
"Detective Chinatown is a whole series of stories."
Zhou Yutang revealed part of the news: "If nothing else happens, there will be a sequel plan, and we will have to discuss when to push it forward."
"Mr. Zhou, what are your expectations for the box office? Is there any hope of breaking the 2.325 billion record set by "The Thieves 2"?"
"The box office is not my biggest concern. Records are just numbers and cannot be defined. "Whether the movie is successful or not?"
Zhou Yutang said calmly: "The important thing is whether everyone can feel happy while watching the movie and gain emotional value that they usually don't experience."
"Pretend, keep pretending, you are really good at pretending!"
Lu Chuan exited the video clip of Detective Tang's premiere at Station B, cursing.
"Tomb Raiders" and "Detective Chinatown" premiered on the same day. Here, the chairman of China Film and Television and the boss of LeTV stood up, including CEO Huanrui, and the great director Gu Changwei and his wife stood up for their niece.
In addition, some senior veterans in the film and television industry also came to support us.
The formation is not weak either.
After all, the Governor of Jiangdong was at the height of his power, and some old people did not buy his fault, and even looked displeased with him.
——We usually have a high status, and we get wind when we want it, and rain when we want it.
No matter how big a star is in the film and television industry, you have to be respectful in front of them.
But as Zhou Yutang's voice in the film and television industry became more and more important, he did not obey the requests made by some seniors.
Sometimes, I even ignore them and don't take them seriously.
Therefore, some old guys mobilized their connections. Even though "Detective Chinatown" was released on a large scale and its box office and reputation soared, there was still a small group of media who worked hard to create the gimmick of Entering the Dragon.
At this time.
Beside Lu Tianming, there was an old man with gray hair and many age spots on his face.
If there are people in the industry here, they will definitely recognize that this old man has quite a say in many film and television associations in China.
When Lu Chuan saw the old man, he immediately bowed slightly with a very respectful attitude: "Mr. He, thank you for your respect and coming to my premiere."
"Old Lu has spoken, it's time for me to move my old bones."
He Lao nodded slightly, patted Lu Chuan on the shoulder, and showed a smile on his face: "Xiao Lu, The next step is up to you. The Chinese film market cannot be dominated by one person. It needs talents like you to step forward.”
“Uncle He supports me. I have confidence.”
Lu Chuan understood and grinned.
Right now, he is like a hero in a novel about cultivating immortals.
As long as you pass this level, you will truly ascend to the Immortal Class.
This Mr. He has very senior qualifications, deep connections, and has a loud voice in many associations.
As long as he has his support, maybe this movie will have the hope of winning one or two mainstream awards.
That's when.
He is the representative of the younger generation of directors who can compete with Governor Zhou.
