I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 254 "Everyone says you are hypocritical, but I just want to have a clear conscience!"

"Before and after the filming of "The Founding of a Party", there was an endless stream of calls from management companies and actors who volunteered to join. In total, more than 400 people expressed their requests to act in the film!"

“In the end, the film was 140 minutes long and featured more than 170 stars!”

Han Sanpin held the microphone, still wearing his cloth shoes and Mao suit, leaning against it, and talking freely: "The original investment in "The Founding of a Republic" was 3142 million yuan, and most of the actors performed on a voluntary basis!"

"And now, The Founding of a Party follows the law of marketization and reasonably settles the actors' salaries according to the investment ratio of the film, but most of them are symbolic remuneration!"

"However, it is foreseeable that in the future, what will be remembered about "The Founding of a Party" is not only its content and the stars, but more importantly, the mainstream film it represents and its exploration of the commercialization path of Chinese films!"

Chen Jin had received his film remuneration of 10 yuan some time ago.

It is said that the money was given by the investor because of complaints from netizens.

But in fact, none of the actors took this matter to heart. Being able to act in this movie actually represents a kind of correctness.

"From a marketing perspective, the current commercial cooperation for this film is very optimistic, and the co-production unit has set a record in the history of concrete films!"

"The relevant person in charge said that there are 40 production units. Judging from the number of business cooperation units, it is several times that of "The Founding of a Republic"!"

"..."

Han Sanpin was talking about a series of achievements of "The Founding of a Party". The total investment has indeed doubled compared to "The Founding of a Republic", which is 7091 million!
This does not include a series of marketing expenses.

Of course, compared with the sky-high marketing prices of other film companies, due to the special nature of China Film and "The Founding of the Party", many units offer friendly prices.

For example, in the cooperation with CCTV, the advertising of "Poetry" received 500 million.

The Sixth Princess is responsible for the entire broadcast, and will also broadcast the "Premiere" column three times a day for one month.

The key is that there is no repetition in a month.

The main thing is to interview more than 100 stars of “The Founding of a Party”, it is simply... so (depressed) and (sick) that it is (crazy)!
This wave of publicity and promotion is unparalleled.

Throughout the history of Chinese cinema, this is the only film that has been able to mobilize so many units to help promote it.

China Film Group has indeed taken publicity and promotion to the extreme.

"The film covers the period from 1911 to 1921, and tells the story of that period of history through three units: "Chaos", "Searching", and "Passionate Youth"!"

"We filmmakers made this film to pay tribute to the Party's birthday in our own way!"

Han Sanpin said this and handed the microphone to the staff.

His opening act ended here.

There was thunderous applause from the stage.

From the time Lao Han came on stage to the end, he spoke for more than 20 minutes. I don’t know how the ratings were, but he actually spoke quite well.

In Chen Jin's opinion, except for the last sentence, the rest are all useful information.

Compared to other movies, this one was not shot quickly, nor was there any cutting of corners. Even with more than a hundred stars, they still coordinated very well and shot this work seriously.

"Now, please welcome the creators of "The Founding of a Party" to come on stage together!"

Amid the sound of passionate music, Huang Jianxin, Chen Jin and others immediately walked onto the stage. At this time, there was another issue of positioning.

Han Sanpin directly pulled Chen Jin to the middle, as he was originally planning to stand on the side.

"Remember, you are the male number one!"

Han Sanpin was talking with his back to the camera, so Zhou Runfa didn't dare to say anything nonsense.

This is not because of Chen Jin's fame or any help in pre-sales, but it is entirely due to Chen Jin's role.

Where should this character stand if not the center position?

Li Xi also took advantage and stood next to Chen Jin.

"Hello Chen Jin, I would like to ask, what is your biggest feeling about acting in this movie?"

The host began the routine questioning.

And it was Chen Jin who started the questioning, which was also an arrangement by the director of the premiere.

“First of all, of course, it’s pressure!”

"The pressure is actually huge, not only because of the audience's high expectations of the character, but also because of my awe of his spiritual core!"

"In fact, these few months have brought great changes to me. In fact, this change is the wealth of my life!"

Chen Jin's narration was completely impromptu, and the expression on his face was very moving and sincere.

These words are truly what he really thinks.

It was this role that made him completely determined to pursue a career as an actor rather than a star.

"I delved into the character's spiritual world, visited him on site, read a lot of his works, and learned his dialect and calligraphy, gradually getting closer to the character's growth trajectory!"

“I suffered from insomnia and breakdown, but I finally made it to where I am now!”

Chen Jin raised his head, his eyes seemed to be emitting light: "These experiences have brought about a qualitative change in my thinking, and also established psychological support for the character!"

"I drew strength from the role. You may not believe it, but in the process of shaping it, I really felt his spiritual belief in pursuing truth and saving the country and the people!"

"..."

The audience was now completely silent, and everyone was looking at Chen Jin.

It’s not that they don’t want to be distracted, but Chen Jin’s lines are so contagious.

Even though Wang Zhonglei knew that Chen Jin had prepared a script in advance and was talking about high-sounding nonsense, he was still shocked by his voice and lines.

The audience who were watching the live premiere also felt it strongly.

Many people think that Chen Jin is very fake. This must have been a speech prepared in advance, but it just sounds very emotional.

"I saw a comment from a fan on a show I did a few days ago, and I thought it was very well said!"

"He said that most young people today simply cannot imagine that the things they memorized by rote in political classes, which they themselves did not believe in, were once truly regarded by a group of people as their lifelong ideals and beliefs, and they fought and sacrificed for them!"

"Yes, I am ashamed of it, because I have been like that too!"

"but now--"

Chen Jin's expression was extremely solemn: "When I was playing him, I didn't feel that he was a god, but more like a young man with flesh and blood!"

"In that turbulent era, he carried a deep sense of responsibility for the country and the nation, and bravely explored the path to save the country and the people!"

"I am deeply moved by his firm belief, extraordinary wisdom and persistent pursuit of his ideals!"

"Every time I stand in front of the camera, I try to get closer to his inner world and feel his joys, sorrows, anger and happiness. This collision with the character's soul makes me understand that era more clearly and gives me a deeper understanding of the responsibilities I shoulder!"

No matter how netizens abused and called him hypocritical for this statement, Chen Jin only wants to have a clear conscience.

It is easy to be a hypocrite, but if you can be a hypocrite all your life, then you are a gentleman.

It’s not like Chen Jin hasn’t been scolded before, he’s already gotten used to it.

“Every time I perform, I can feel something different!”

"Every time I rehearsed and filmed, I was actually walking on thin ice, fearing that I would not be able to accurately interpret his spirit, words and deeds, and subtle characteristics... But fortunately, I persisted!"

"It allows me to constantly break through myself and also makes a qualitative leap in my performance!"

"At the same time, by delving into his growth trajectory and spiritual world, I felt a tremendous power - his persistence in truth and his responsibility to the country!"

“I am grateful for this experience, which is not only a role shaping, but also a spiritual baptism!”

Chen Jin smiled slightly, and after a few seconds of silence, he looked at the camera calmly and said loudly: "Our life today is their ideal back then; and our ideal should continue their beliefs!"

"Let's make this country a better place!" "Thank you, this is how I really felt while filming The Founding of a Party these past few months!"

Wow!
Everyone in the audience applauded, but no one thought that Chen Jin was speaking from the heart.

Because everyone can say polite words.

They just hated Chen Jin.

This guy, has prepared so much?

How do they answer this?

Zhou Runfa and the others didn't make any preparations, but Li Wei was fine, she just copied down a few sentences; so the following interview was really awkward.

They could only do their best and narrate their experiences and insights during the filming.

Good actors can still talk about something meaningful, but some young actors, such as Fan Bingbing, can basically only talk about some interesting things that happened during the filming.

Of course, there are those who hate Chen Jin, and there are also those who understand him.

The roles are different!

As a young actor, playing the leading male role does have to be a little different.

The premiere lasted for more than two hours and finally ended with a group photo; Chen Jin still stood in the C position with Han Sanpin and Huang Jianxin.

“Well said!”

"How long did it take to prepare?"

Han Sanpin chatted with Chen Jin after the premiere.

He didn't have so many thoughts. In his opinion, Chen Jin had prepared seriously, unlike some other idiots who treated it as a press conference for the premiere. The director had already notified them and asked them to prepare well.

But there is nothing you can say about Han Sanpin's situation. This is how the circle is. What can you do? !

"If I say I'm not prepared at all, do you believe me?"

Chen Jin smiled. Han Sanpin glanced at him and smiled: "I don't believe other people, but you..."

Han Sanpin didn't say anything else, just smiled and shook his head.

One day, he even wanted his daughter to date Chen Jin.

Really, he thought Chen Jin was a good guy.

But the two of them didn't seem to have any chemistry at all, and they treated each other like brothers.

If it were any other male actor, he would have launched the attack long ago.

When it comes to Han Sanpin's position, his view on people and things is obviously completely different from that of many people, and is more thorough.

For example, many people in this circle have a good relationship with each other.

But the interactions between people are so mysterious.

Chen Jin rarely gets things done in exchange for gifts, and even if he needs help, he never beats around the bush. You can tell that he wants to make friends with you because of your status, but if you don't have the status of Chairman of China Film, he will also chat with you.

The purpose is not too strong.

But as for what the others said, Han Sanpin understood very well what they were doing.

It's just a very strange feeling.

In fact, many people also like to associate with purer people.

He may not even look for you at all, even if you are a high-ranking official or a low-ranking official, and have nothing to do with you. As for people with no vested interests in these situations, they will be very willing to eat and drink with him when they have nothing to do.

Because there is no threat, there is no scruples... Although Chen Jin has not reached such a level in Han Sanpin's heart, he is still much better than others.

This is also the reason why Han Sanpin looks at Chen Jin differently.

"Jia Jia reported to the Beijing Film Academy's directing department as soon as school started!"

"When we're filming, take her with you!"

Han Sanpin was explaining this, and Chen Jin smiled bitterly and said, "Master San, with your status, are you still worried that she won't have a crew?"

"It's different, as long as you understand what I mean!"

"Okay, then I'll do my best!"

"As long as she doesn't complain to me when she comes back, I don't care!"

Han Sanpin was talking with a smile when his phone suddenly rang. Looking at the message on it, he couldn't help but smile: "It looks like the pre-sale will exceed 3000 million today!"

"What's your record?"

Chen Jin: “…”

“It’s a pre-sale record!”

Chen Jin was quite embarrassed, but something suddenly brightened up in his mind.

Those posters in the future that congratulate xx movie for breaking its own box office record may be useful this time.

This doesn’t cost anything at all, but Weibo has a high reach.

It can not only promote new movies, but also bring some traffic to "Love Is Not Blind"; such positive energy Chinese-language movies helping each other is actually a very benign form of encouragement.

"More than 6200 million!"

Chen Jin said casually.

"Okay, let's see if we can break it, and then have the media spread the news!"

"Let it break. I'm looking forward to it too!"

Chen Jin had no intention of maintaining the record of "Love Is Not Blind" at all, because the subsequent movies were better than the last, and the domestic box office was breaking various records every year.

Only by constantly breaking records can we prove the activity of this market; if these records are broken again and again by the movies starring or invested by Chen Jin, it will greatly enhance his box office appeal and company qualifications.

"Third Master, when it's broken, I'll have someone make a poster and promote it on Weibo!"

Chen Jin explained the method of future help, and Han Sanping grinned: "I didn't know you had an idea, this time, it has to be broken!"

What a great marketing campaign via Weibo! Much better than the record-breaking publicity by the media.

Because viewers may not click on this kind of news, but posters like "Love Is Not Blind" congratulating "The Founding of a Party" for breaking the pre-sale record can be seen by everyone on Weibo.

This is still very helpful in increasing box office revenue.

After seeing how powerful this movie is, people will definitely want to watch it.

buzzing-

Chen Jin's personal cell phone suddenly rang.

"Third Master, I need to take a call!"

Chen Jin picked up the phone and took a look. It was a call from Lao Tian.

Chen Jin had previously watched the post-production of "Life Events", including editing and music soundtrack, and had also discussed it with Tian Zhuangzhuang.

The movie should be ready by now.

Sure enough, just as Chen Jin answered the phone, Tian Zhuangzhuang's familiar voice came out: "Watching a movie, do you have time?"
