Chapter 262: "Supergirl"
The dinner party is over, and the film critics and reporters are still writing hard.
When you get money, you have to do things, simple values.
Reporters and film critics reviewed the key points they recorded while recalling the content of the movie.
The reporter’s manuscript is very easy to write——
["Crazy Stone" is scheduled to be released on July 15th, competing with Hollywood blockbusters]
[Star Entertainment's summer masterpiece, "Crazy Stone" will make you laugh non-stop]
Anyway, it's just promotion, just let people know that there is a "Crazy Stone" released in the summer.
Film critics are relatively more complicated.
What they say should be more meaningful, and preferably from a novel angle.
Someone wrote in his column:
[
Currently, there are generally two types of comedies in the domestic market, Hong Kong-style nonsensical comedies and Feng Xiaogang-style comedies that collect jokes.
Today, I accidentally discovered the third type, "Crazy Stone", a new type of comedy that is different from any other form now - black humor.
Black humor is nothing new, but it does not appear much in domestic film and television works.
Even fewer can play well.
"Crazy Stone" is undoubtedly the most successful one.
……
】
Some people analyze it from a narrative perspective:
【
"Crazy Stone" - a high-end comedy film.
Why it is called advanced is because it uses a rare multi-line narrative technique.
It can be seen that the screenwriter drew lessons from Guy Ritchie's "Two Smoking Barrels", but made localized modifications, and it was very successful.
……
】
The next day, the news appeared on the headlines of the entertainment pages of major portal websites.
A reporter immediately called Xingchen Entertainment for verification and proved that it was all true.
"Crazy Stone", which Zhang Chen has been teasing for several months, is finally available to everyone and is scheduled to be released on July 15th.
Sensitive reporters immediately discovered the scheduling problem.
Why July 15th?
Most people speculate that it is to avoid "Seven Swords".
After all, "Seven Swords" is the work of Old Monster Xu.
Although Old Monster Xu has been on the street continuously in the past two years, but there are still three pounds of nails in the rotten ship, people still recognize the three words "Old Monster Xu".
There are also good-intentioned media who have created a gimmick of "the battle between geniuses and geniuses".
Zhang Chen said before that Ning Hao is a genius director, and Xu Ke's nickname is 'Ghost Director', so there is such a gimmick.
Zhang Chen just wanted to laugh when he saw it, as if Ning Hao’s nickname in his previous life was also ‘Ghost Director’.
Once, Zhang Chen was blocked by reporters downstairs in the company.
"I would like to ask Director Zhang, the outside world is speculating that "Crazy Stone" is scheduled to be released on July 15th to avoid "Seven Swords". What development do you have?"
Face Reporter, Zhang Chen smiled.
Being blocked was of course a deliberate arrangement.
He is now the director of two 100 million-dollar blockbusters and has his own traffic. The promotion of "Stone" certainly depends on him.
Although Ning Hao has already directed "Black 2", people generally do not think that "Black 2" is his work. This is why he is working hard to make "Stone" - Proof Own.
"Avoid "Seven Swords"? It doesn't exist.
I remember that the Hong Kong media had been advocating that mainland China would not make commercial films. The appearance of "Stone" was to tell them what is Mainland commercial films.
Stop being immersed in the fantasy of Eastern Hollywood, please open your eyes and see the world, please~
As for why it is July 15th, because we are not afraid of head-on confrontation with Hollywood blockbusters, and we are not afraid of any form of competition. , if "Seven Swords" is willing, we welcome it to be moved to July 15th..."
Zhang Chen's words were immediately spread through the media.
Not only are old things coming back, Mentioned the previous grievances between him and the Hong Kong media, and also reflected on "Seven Swords"
Personally, he and Xu Ke have no grievances, but to a certain extent, Xu Ke represents.
Then I'm sorry.
Zhang Chen has always believed in not taking the initiative to cause trouble, and relying on strength to crush everything.
But now his concept has changed. Take the initiative to declare war on competitors of the same period.
There is still one and a half months until the release of "Stone", and the promotion has already begun.
The budget is 3 million, and if it is not enough, more can be added.
In the company, Dong Jianqiang and others discussed the distribution strategy:
"The most important box office of "The Stone" should be in the first two weeks. After entering August, "Seven Swords" will definitely have an impact. To "Stone"..."
No matter how optimistic "Seven Swords" is, "Seven Swords" is also a blockbuster. When it is released, "Stone" has already been released for two weeks, and the box office will definitely be affected.
"There is also "Super Girl". We have done a special survey. The survey results show that "Super Girl" is very popular. The situation mentioned by Director Zhang is indeed possible."
Zhang Chen previously predicted that the whole month of August would be dominated by "Super Girl".
The distribution company did not believe in evil and sent people to conduct an investigation, but the results of the investigation surprised them.
The popularity of "Super Girl" is unprecedented, especially in Chengdu, Guangzhou, Zhengzhou, Changsha, and Hangzhou, where "Super Girl" has shown great influence.
“I think we should change the release strategy. The first half of the month remains unchanged. After entering August, can the promotion of "Stone" rely on "Supergirl"?"
《 Since "Supergirl" is so popular, the exposure of "Stones" will definitely increase dramatically due to "Supergirl". If all those supporters can be converted into moviegoers, won't the box office take off?
Of course, this degree must be grasped well. If it is not grasped well, it may be counterproductive.
If fans boycott it, "Stone" will be finished.
This suddenly reminded Zhang Chen why he had forgotten this.
"Super Girl" is simply a ready-made east wind. As long as you can catch it, why not go straight into the sky?
“Contact Mango TV to see if we can work together?”
"Title title?"
"No..."
Zhang Chen shook his head, "For example, if a great director like me makes a review, or reveals who my fan is, this will be a huge amount of traffic. ..."
But then he shook his head: "Forget it, it's better not to say that I am a fan of so-and-so. Those fans are crazy. If I support this, I may offend other people. Fans, those fans will become black fans, let’s think of other ways..."
Zhang Chen has lingering fears about brain-dead fans. This title came out of "Supergirl" in 2005. It really offends you. rise.
Dong Jianqiang immediately understood: "I came up with an idea. We can hold an early internal preview of "Stone" for the top ten popular contestants, and invite the singers and their fans to participate. Wouldn't it make the topic more interesting?"
It sounds feasible, you can give it a try.
Everyone brainstormed and various ideas were put forward. Those that felt feasible were recorded and discussed again at that time.
During the discussion, someone mentioned the "venomous judge" Ke Yimin and suggested that Zhang Chen should also serve as a "venomous judge". After all, Zhang Chen's current public image has always been very sarcastic.
This was a wake-up call for Zhang Chen.
"I don't need to be a 'venomous judge', but I can be a 'venomous judge'."
This is not just for publicity, but he really wants to do it.
Ke Yimin, a Singaporean, has developed slowly and is known as a famous singer, but before "Super Girl" in 2005, no one even knew who she was?
This person can be regarded as the first generation of 'venomous judges'. His words can no longer be judged as sharp, they are simply vicious.
Compared with him, Ding Taisheng in later generations can only be described as a good boy.
I wonder if this person has a misunderstanding of the word "venomous tongue" and thinks that "venomous tongue" means that one can insult people arbitrarily.
Looking at her comment videos, even decades later, I still feel indignant.
Words like ‘Go away’ can actually be uttered from a tutor’s mouth, thanks to her living in an era when the Internet was not yet developed.
Zhang Chen hates this person very much. He is completely uneducated.
However, what happened later fully proved that if you come out to fool around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later~
More than ten years later, Ke Yimin wanted to make money in the live broadcast industry and sell live classes.
299, you can connect with her after buying her course.
After posting the link, someone immediately placed an order.
After connecting, I scolded you when I came up.
Spent 299 just to come up and curse SB...
People speculated that the connectors were the players she insulted back then.
How many years of frustration can a person spend 299 without hesitation just to come up and curse SB...
Deserves to be scolded and cried.
If I had known today, why bother in the beginning.
“Will scolding the jury make Mango Channel think that we are looking for trouble?” Dong Jianqiang was worried about offending Mango Channel.
Zhang Chen waved his hand nonchalantly: "Don't worry, Ke Yimin has already caused public outrage, but no one wants to do it.
And I didn't detonate it on the show, but posted a blog to scold him. She. As long as Mango Channel is not stupid, it will just follow the trend - look, even director Zhang Chen is paying attention to our "Super Girl"..."
Everyone immediately felt that Zhang Chen's explanation was feasible. One was also recorded.
