China Entertainment started from art school

Chapter 224 High IQ Criminal Action Movie
At the beginning of March, the TV series "Why Shengxiaomo" starring Zhu Yilong and Mao Xiaotong was broadcast on the stars.

Gu Man's novels have always been very popular and topical, and the two leading actors have also gained a good reputation in the circle in recent years, so this drama has received a lot of attention before it even started broadcasting.

And after the show first aired jointly on Jiangsu Satellite TV and Dongfang Satellite TV, it lived up to expectations, and soon got a high ratings, and became Jiang Su Satellite TV's highest TV drama rating champion this year.

The works produced by Longqi Film and Television have been seen by all in recent years, so when this show came out, the major TV stations also competed fiercely. In addition, this IP itself is very popular, so the price they quoted before was very high.

But in the end, it was Jiangsu Satellite TV and Dongfang Satellite TV who paid a lot of money to get this drama together.

This is also the first time that a TV series has started to implement the broadcast mode of "one drama with two stars", and the "10+x" policy that has been implemented for 4 years will also withdraw from the TV drama stage.

The ratings of the TV series are very high, and of course the search index on the Internet is also very high.According to the "Bibo TV Index" of Bibo TV, since the broadcast of "Why Shengxiaomo", related bibs have covered 24 users within 750.4 hours, ranking first!

The film of the same name was approved as early as the end of 14. This time, it was still produced by Longqi Film and Television in conjunction with other film and television companies, but it was not handed over to Zhang Yibai, but was going to be handed over to Yao Tingting, the contracted director of Longqi Film and Television.

In fact, the original drama conflict of this novel is relatively weak, and the plot is relatively thin.If it is adapted into a film and television drama, more efforts will have to be made in these aspects and more information will be dug out.

That's why Li Jingkun would let the TV series try first, and then when the film version is about to be filmed, he can also learn from their experience, and then make further adjustments.

······
The production of "Wuxin Master" was also completed at this time, and it was finally sold to Sohu.com, and it has also started a hot publicity on the Internet.

In terms of movies, the post-production of "The Tuner" has been completed, and the May [-]st file is temporarily confirmed, and the promotion work has also begun.Soon a more detailed publicity plan will be sent to Hua Ge, Li Binbin and other leading actors, and they will also be needed to cooperate with the publicity work.

"Love Like a Bouquet" is a modern drama, and the later period will soon end.As soon as the film is finished, it will be distributed to film festivals such as Gana.

·····
During this period of time, another major event happened to Longqi Film and Television, that is, the first studio began to be affiliated with it.

Mao Xiaotong's contract with the original company expired, and then he did not renew the contract. Instead, he set up his own personal studio, and then affiliated with Longqi Film and Television.That is to say, Long Qi Film and Television became a shareholder of her studio, and Li Jingkun will also have a share in the money earned by the studio in the future.

But for now, the cooperation between the two parties is more beneficial to Mao Xiaotong himself, because Longqi Film and Television itself is a film and television company with very strong resources and strength.She cooperates with them, which means that there will be basically no shortage of resources in the future, and she is not worried about the lack of good resources.

But in the end, the benefits she can get are much higher than the profits of signing a contract with a company as a pure artist.

This is of course because she has a very good personal relationship with Li Jingkun, so she is treated like this. Otherwise, there are not too many studios in the market who want to be affiliated with Longqi Film and Television!
After the staff of both parties finished their business talks in the conference room of Longqi Film and Television and signed the contract, Zhou Deze suggested whether they should go to lunch together.

Mao Xiaotong said with a smile: "It's fine for me to go eat with Li Dong. We have other things to talk about—or Mr. Zhou can also invite my colleagues to have a dinner together. We are all family now."

"..."

Zhou Deze is the general manager of Longqi Film and Television, and his current reputation and status in the circle are also rising year by year.Now, even top-tier artists rarely refuse his dinner invitations.But after all, Mao Xiaotong has a different relationship with their boss, so after looking at Li Jingkun, he smiled and said, "Okay, no problem, we are all family."

So Zhou Deze's assistant began to invite other people to go out for dinner. He had already booked the restaurant, and he was waiting for everyone to go to celebrate today's happy cooperation.

Li Jingkun didn't have any objections, so he went out with Mao Xiaotong—in fact, he went to the same restaurant as Zhou Deze and the others, but they didn't share the same private room.

"You go out to eat with other women alone. It's not good to be seen by your girlfriend, right?"

"..."

"She should be jealous, right?"

"...Can you speak well? ——Isn't that what you asked yourself just now?"

"Hehe, you are very rude to my sister now, you never treated me like this before..."

"...Do you know that there is a palm technique that descends from the sky?"

"Oh, it's really different when you have a girlfriend, even my sister has to do something..."

"..."

"So you will be my sister's boss in the future? Will you be nice to my sister?"

"Can you talk normally? We didn't do anything?"

"What else do you want to do? - Tell me, maybe I will consider cooperating with you?"

"...I just want to fill your mouth with food right now—so many words!"

"Food?" Mao Xiaotong stared at him with big innocent eyes, but his cheeks turned red a little bit uncontrollably - did he think of some messy place again?

"·····" Li Jingkun was indeed a little speechless, why didn't he see her for a while, did this woman seem to be a different person?
Is this inexplicable maturity, or early menopause?

······
"The Tuner" has been finalized, so the publicity plan must naturally be arranged.

But this time the cooperation is all big-name actors, in fact, many of the previous publicity methods are not suitable for them.

For example, some domestic variety shows, with Hua Ge and Li Binbin's status, are definitely not suitable for participation.Including some small interviews or small programs that Zhang Yu and the others would accept in the past, they are not suitable to go.

Let alone them, Li Jingkun himself is not suitable for many shows now.

Including the second season of "Run, Brothers" that Zheng Chao mentioned to him before.The program team also sent them a shooting plan. If it seems suitable, they can consider it. They can directly arrange for him to appear in the first episode of the second season, and the salary will be paid normally.

"Let's Run" is a very popular program, and it will definitely be of great benefit to the promotion of the film, and Li Jingkun knows that they will continue to be popular for many years, so he was very interested in it at the beginning.But after looking at the schedule, I felt that it was really not suitable for him.

This show requires playing a lot of sports, rolling in the dirt, fighting against others and tearing up famous brands. It is really not suitable for him anymore.

Not only is he not suitable, Hua Ge and Li Binbin are not suitable to participate in this kind of program.

They are still more suitable to participate in some more relaxed, talk shows.

So in the end they were rejected.

But "Let's Run" actually doesn't think it's a pity, because of the success of the first season, there are now many stars who want to participate in their program.

If they don't go this time, they still have many other choices.For example, the movie "Everything Grows", which is about to be released at the same time as "The Tuner", they also contacted the "Run" program team, hoping to participate in the recording of the first episode of the program.

The protagonists of this movie are Han Geng and International Fan.

·····
However, there are of course many benefits of working with big-name actors, that is, even if they don't participate in these variety shows, it will not affect the promotion of the movie, because they themselves have their own traffic.

Moreover, there are many resources and occasions, and Longqi Film and Television does not need to contact them, they have their own connections and channels.

For example, Li Binbin still participates in some fashion events and charity dinners every year. For example, what Brother Hua said on the Internet can still attract attention.

"It's rare for Li Binbin to play a villain role, and Brother Hua praised his superb acting skills!"

"Li Jingkun challenges the suspense masterpiece, "The Tuner" Hua brother Li Binbin has a big showdown!"

"A high-IQ criminal action movie! Brother Hua Li Binbin said that the acting is very enjoyable!"

"Li Binbin challenged the villain for the first time, and his wife with a black belly has scary eyes!"

Now that the publicity work has started, various information and materials will be released in due course.

For example, this time Li Jingkun attaches great importance to dubbing, so he invited dubbing master Hu Weili;
For example, the female number one found several big names, but refused because the character was too black-bellied. In the end, Li Binbin wanted to challenge himself, regardless of being a villain, he hesitated and accepted;
For example, Brother Hua just read the script once, and he was attracted by the wonderful story of the script, so he agreed to act in the movie after only reading it once, and so on.

All kinds of true and false news were sent out one by one. At the beginning, the company spontaneously sent out. After other people saw the traffic, some media people dug up some inside information and sent it out.For example, who were the artists who rejected the female number one at the beginning, and then they rejected them for what reason.

Li Jingkun's current scarf fans show more than 2000 million, which is much worse than the scarf queen Yao Dachen's more than 7000 million, and the well-known host Xie Yina of Mango Channel's more than 8000 million; but to be honest, every time he posts a scarf, he likes and forwards it And the number of comments is much more than others.

His real fans are many and very active!

He has never bought any fans, and he doesn't need to buy them. He even wants to find a time to clean up zombie fans or something.

Now that "Tuner" is starting to promote, the scarf is of course also one of his key propaganda positions, so he quickly sent a message:
"The post-production of "The Tuner" was completed a while ago, and the company held the third internal screening this afternoon. The feedback this time was very good, and there were basically no criticisms. Everyone thought the quality was very good!

Even surprisingly good!
They are all people who have read the script at least two or three times, but even so, it can be said that the finished product is unexpectedly perfect in many places!

The performance of the actors is very good. This is the second time Hua Ge has played the role of a blind man. It can be said that he has fully played this character!The protagonist pretends to be a blind person in the early stage and becomes a real blind person in the later stage. The transformation of this process and the emotional feedback of the characters are really so natural and smooth, it is a stroke of magic!

Li Binbin is equally outstanding, she is beautiful, dark-bellied, ruthless, weak, and decisive... Yes, Li Binbin's role in it is so complicated, but she performs with ease and switches freely!

At that time, the crew, including me, Brother Hua and Wan Qian, were all overwhelmed by her acting skills!

Brother Hua also said: 'This is really a role that every actor dreams of!
The characters are full, full of tension, and full of dramatic conflicts. It is really challenging, and it can also show the actor's personal ability and charm! ——If I hadn't been an actor, I would have wanted to play this role! '

In short, this is really a wonderful movie, and we did not choose any wrong actors, including Wan Qian, Huang Jue, Mr. Xu Shaoxiong, etc., all performed very well!I really hope that everyone can see this movie sooner! "

Li Jingkun typed a lot of words in one breath. There must be exaggeration in the content, but what he wants is to bring everyone a sense of expectation.

And not only the long scarf needs to be issued, but the short scarf will also be updated from time to time.Then this long scarf will be issued again by the official scarf of "Tuner" in a few days.

But boasting, not seeing the real thing will always bring more doubts and ridicule, so he also quickly launched the first movie trailer, so that everyone can have something to refer to first.

The trailer started with brisk music. The protagonist played by Hua Ge is on the road, on the bus, and practicing piano music with various hand gestures in fast food restaurants. The sunglasses on his face and the strange eyes and reactions of passers-by prove that he is a A blind man whose constant movement of playing the piano suggests that he must have some kind of relationship with the piano.

At the same time, Hua Ge's voice also appeared in the film as a narration:
"When you're blind, there's no difference between day and night."

"If you listen carefully, there is music in every sound."

"Art is the meaning of an artist's life,
But he has to pay for it. "

During this period, other starring figures also appeared one by one, Jiang Haowen's back, Li Binbin's beautiful legs...

Then there was Wan Qian holding a cup of coffee: "What kind of artist are you?"

"I play the piano." Hua Ge, who was wearing sunglasses, said.

"piano?"

Wan Qian was a little surprised and pleasantly surprised.

Then it played two or three seconds of them happily playing the piano in the restaurant.

"Just flick and watch."

"Ok."

Inside the house, Li Binbin leaned against the wall expressionlessly, while Hua Ge, wearing sunglasses, sat in front of the piano and played a tune.

As a result, the upbeat tune quickly turned into a heavy and rushing background sound!

Various pictures and characters also popped up quickly.

The scene of Li Binbin throwing an old lady downstairs;
The picture of Brother Hua constantly rolling his eyes after waking up;
A picture of two men chasing and fleeing at the stairs;

The picture of Li Binbin's lover Huang Jue strangling Hua Ge's neck...

It can be said that the front part is still full of warmth, but from the middle, the style of painting takes a sharp turn for the worse, with various fights, various pursuits and unexpected scenes!

It still looks like an action scene slowly!Still a very exciting feeling!

Therefore, Li Jingkun's film review and the first trailer quickly attracted the attention of many people.

After all, it was just the love affair between Li Jingkun and Liu Tianxian that covered everyone's eyes. In fact, there are still many loyal movie fans who are looking forward to this movie.One is because this is Li Jingkun's latest masterpiece, and the other is because it is an adaptation of a classic work.

There are still many people who want to see what it looks like as soon as possible!
"It smells like that. It's really different from the suspense and comedy of "Detective Chinatown". It really seems to be a serious suspense crime movie!"

"I just saw the scarf that Director Li boasted about, and then I watched this trailer, and I feel that it looks really good! But whether it is really that good or not depends on the finished product!"

"Insider information, Li Jingkun has been in the Spring Festival for two consecutive years. Originally, this movie was released in time, but because of the subject matter and because it was too dark, it was not scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival!"

"You can tell, the background is set in Xiangjiang, and the characters are so dark and fierce, it's really not suitable for release during the Spring Festival!"

"Dark crime movies, blockbuster movies with a preference for Leo's narrative style, are exactly my favorite theme! I hope they can be released soon!"

Yes, this time the film studio has made several selling points for publicity, one is the direction of dark crime themes, the other is the direction of suspense films with high IQ, and the other is the direction of Hollywood narrative mode.

Anyway, it will be used if it is on top!Publicity is to try our best to dig out the advantages and gimmicks that can be publicized!
However, when the publicity was in full swing, a piece of news suddenly cast a shadow over them, or in other words, cast a shadow over the movies of the same period.

Omi's blockbuster movie "Avengers 2", which gathers many superheroes, is also scheduled for May 5st, and it will be released simultaneously in China and Omi!
This is a piece of news that many movie fans in China cheered, but it caused headaches for other movie studios at the same time...
