The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 478 Hot Screening
As we all know, Lu Nanting's sudden rise to fame has never been based on his acting skills.

Previously, Gu Lanxi cried uncontrollably while watching a horror movie in the cinema, and some people even questioned whether she was acting. Lu Nanting also had tears in his eyes while watching a movie, and everyone who saw the photos believed that he was genuinely moved.

To coincide with the movie's promotional schedule, the photos were quickly deleted from the entire internet as soon as they were released, and most people, except for a few fans who paid special attention to him, did not see them.

Two months later, Lu Nanting's curly hair had been straightened, and he now sported a head of shiny black hair. He wore a white shirt and black trousers and came straight to the movie theater after work. He looked aloof and was much thinner than before the car accident.

There was nothing he could do. He injured his leg, making it difficult to move around, and he couldn't get enough exercise. More than a month had passed, and the muscles he had worked so hard to build had degenerated into thin muscles. In addition, the weather was getting warmer, and he was only wearing a long-sleeved shirt, which made him look even thinner.

In addition, he had tears in his eyes while watching the movie, which made his fans feel very sorry for him. They just assumed that he was in a bad mood because he was recovering from a serious injury.

Neither of them officially announced any endorsements in May. After buying his May issue, Xiao Qingting was looking for something to do with her energy. Seeing that Lu Nanting not only helped promote it on Weibo but also went to the cinema to watch it, she decided to invite him to watch her sister-in-law's new movie together.

A proper sister-in-law is certainly not the same as the "oil-pouring sister-in-law" that is often exposed in other families.

The little dragonfly was exceptionally skilled at making cheering gestures.

To provide a better movie-watching experience for casual viewers and increase screenings, they would voluntarily buy seats in corners during the initial release of a film, and bring their friends and family to watch it together. They would never buy tickets to fill up the box office and then leave the seats empty, making casual viewers think that the high box office was due to the fan effect.

In addition, the screening times will be booked as late as possible in the middle to late stages of the film's release, which can help reverse the decline in box office revenue and thus maintain the screening rate as much as possible.

After watching the movie, I would post my thoughts on various platforms, trying to make them meaningful and improve the movie's rating.

It must be said that professional fan groups have a very strong organizational ability.

This is Gu Lanxi's first film after her marriage, which is significant not only for her but also for her fans.

Before they got married, many young fans didn't pay any attention to Gu Lanxi, and many hadn't even seen her movies.

Now, for Lu Nanting's sake, I'm even willing to go to the movies for her.

Besides the little dragonfly, the little slippers and the little gold ingot are also putting in their efforts, and their operations are basically the same.

Gu Lanxi already had a strong box office appeal, and after getting married, it directly resulted in 1+1>2. In addition, her rivals used her for publicity and increased the screening rate as a form of exchange for benefits. As a result, the movie "Lurking" came on strong.

On its first day, the screening rate reached 49.17%, with most of the screenings taking place during prime time.

In addition, Gao Yunyi's appearance greatly helped the film's promotion and distribution.

To be fair, although Gao Yunyi has flaws in his character, his professional skills are truly outstanding.

In addition to possessing the strong conflicts and fast pace of traditional anti-gang action films, as well as the characteristics of "suspense" and "excitement," the film "Lurking" also innovatively combines the strong visual impact of martial arts films with the "laughter to highlight emotion" characteristic of comedy films, making the film more relatable to the audience while also having sufficient emotional weight.

Although Gao Yunyi was unable to finish filming the movie due to illness, his apprentice Han Yucheng, whom he had personally trained, took over the remaining filming tasks, so the movie ultimately achieved a unified style.

At the premiere, the focus of the publicity was on Gao Yunyi, while Gu Lanxi wore only a very low-key little black dress.

Gao Yunyi attended the event in a wheelchair. Guided by the host, he recounted various interesting anecdotes from the filming process, playing the emotional card and recalling his career history.

It wasn't until the event was about to end that he sighed and announced his official retirement.

Incidentally, the reason was also explained.

Unfortunately, six months after the surgery, the brain tumor recurred and spread, and he probably didn't have many months left to live.

This film, "Lurking," will be his last.

Gao Yunyi is a second-generation director with decades of experience, specializing in crime action films. He is particularly adept at exploring human nature, and in the eyes of audiences who enjoy this genre, he is an irreplaceable god. Many people grew up watching his movies, so their feelings for him are extraordinary.

A dying man's words are often kind; every word he uttered on stage was utterly sincere and touched the hearts of the audience.

Upon hearing the news, some people burst into tears on the spot.

Once the media has condensed and reported on the events, and more people have seen it, anyone who can afford it will try to go to the cinema. They're no longer going there for the movie, but to commemorate their youth.

At the same time, the publicity team began to play the nostalgia card, making full use of social media to vigorously promote the compilation of Gao Yunyi's works. From May 2nd to 3rd, the topic gradually fermented, and finally, #WeAllOweGaoYunyiAMovieTicket# became a trending topic.

Because of this, cinemas across the country were packed within just three days of the film's release, with its screening rate soaring to 68%, making it the hottest film during this year's May Day holiday.

The box office raked in a staggering 8.6 million yuan, far ahead of the May Day holiday box office, which is simply a box office miracle!
Since the last time Gao Yunyi left in anger at the hotel in City C, Gu Lanxi has never seen him again, not even when they were both in Beijing, and she didn't send him a wedding invitation.

Those who didn't know the situation might have thought she had invited Gao Yunyi, but he was ill and couldn't come. Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense for an actor and director who had worked together to have such a bad relationship.

When they met again, neither of them mentioned the previous incident, and they seemed to have a very good relationship. They cooperated very well during the interview.

Firstly, the two share common interests, and secondly, Gu Lanxi wouldn't hold a grudge against a dying person.

Once the buzz surrounding Gao Yunyi died down, the story of Lu Nanting being moved to tears while watching a movie was brought up again and reignited.

That segment tells the story of Duan Wei, the female protagonist played by Gu Lanxi, who is feared by Luo Yang's parents who realize that the situation is very bad. For their son's safety, they use the excuse of buying wedding supplies to send Luo Yang down the mountain. Duan Wei chases him down two mountains and manages to bring Luo Yang, the "hostage," back and keep him firmly in her grasp.

Because of the filming technique, this part is a bit tense and a bit funny, but Lu Nanting was moved to tears.

Fans had been pondering this for days, but they just couldn't figure out why. During the Q&A session of the roadshow, someone finally asked the question.

Gao Yunyi was in poor health and could only attend the premiere. During the subsequent roadshow, Han Yucheng was the director in charge of answering questions.

Upon hearing this question, Han Yucheng immediately smiled.

"In fact, this one-shot sequence was not originally planned. It was inspired by Teacher Gu that Teacher Gao came up with the idea on the spur of the moment, called in a professional team, and had the screenwriter revise the script overnight. It took several days to film it."

As planned, Han Yucheng dropped a bombshell, and Zhou Sinian immediately burst into laughter.

Seeing his meaningful smile, Gu Lanxi lowered her head with her ears turning red, and someone immediately asked what was going on.

Zhou Sinian raised an eyebrow and deliberately asked Gu Lanxi, "May I say?"

Knowing that he was deliberately teasing her, Gu Lanxi smiled and replied, "I am an upright person, and I have nothing to hide from others. Since someone is curious, Teacher Zhou, please feel free to speak."

"Then I'll hold nothing back!"

He only began to speak slowly and deliberately, urged on by the audience:
"When Teacher Gu's family came to visit the set, they were reluctant to leave. Teacher Gu chased after them up two mountains. At that time, we were filming deep in the mountains, which was very boring. A group of young people in the crew were not convinced and had a competition for many days. In the end, before the tractor came, no one but her managed to run up the two mountains at the precise moment.

"Director Gao was amazed! He never knew it could be done like this!! We have to film it!"
"As you can see, this scene was filmed in one continuous shot from beginning to end, and the effect was excellent. Most people simply couldn't do that."

Some people wanted to ask what Lu Nanting's reaction was at the time, but Gu Lanxi immediately covered the microphone with her hand to prevent people from speaking.

But everyone will fill in the blanks with their own imaginations.

No wonder she cried so hard.

At the time, Lu Nanting was on the tractor and could only see her standing gracefully on the hilltop. It wasn't until the movie was released that he realized how much effort Gu Lanxi had put in on the other side of the mountain, in a place he couldn't see, to send him off.

Zhou Sinian didn't think much of it at the time and just told him what happened. Unexpectedly, a few days later, the filming location was developed into a tourist attraction, and a challenge was launched based on Gu Lanxi's travel route.

The reward is free mushroom picking tours throughout the entire mushroom season.

Presumably, once the movie finishes its run and the rainy season arrives, this place will become a popular tourist attraction.

The previous operations officer was too busy in real life to continue handling this matter, so he recommended a new operations officer to me, namely our @是啊裕不是啊鱼, a very active young man and a fan of this chapter.
