Entertainment upstart

Chapter 131
Zhou Xia is very tender.

The young lady came thousands of miles to send warmth, so of course he would send a gift in return.

Sisi moved to accept the gift, obediently waited until she got off the plane, and then opened it when she got home.

Seeing the few gadgets inside, his face flushed with shame and his teeth itched with hatred, and he couldn't help but think of Zhou Xia's meaningful parting words.

"In the days without me in the future, you have to learn to be self-reliant. If you get tired from wrestling with each other, use the little gift I gave you as if I was always with you!"

"It's really shameless!"

The young lady cursed bitterly, and quickly hid a few small gifts.

………………

Time entered April, and Zhou Xia became even busier.

With the wide spread of "Little Lucky", the popularity of "You at the Same Table" TV series and new books has greatly increased.

After watching the mv and the new book, people have higher expectations for TV dramas.

Especially when the heroine didn't appear in the MV, some people complained at first, but soon some smart people with big brains pointed it out directly.

This is because the propagandists deliberately created a sense of mystery and anticipation, which made everyone leave messages on Weibo to ask about Zhou Xia.

Zhou Xia really didn't expect that his behavior of shocking the harem could be understood in this way!

He can only admit it generously on Weibo, and said that everyone will see the heroine's performance.

On Weibo, Yang Xiaohu also took the initiative to repost Zhou Xia's mv, and also posted a photo of her hugging her cat son Xia Bao, with the cat's head against her forehead.

With text: It is my little luck to meet you.

Zhou Xia could only 'hehe'.

This isn't Yang Xiaohu's character. They broke up, and they still do this, so they aren't afraid of rumors. Would you like to cooperate once?
Of course, they may have said it to Xia Bao.

After all, since adopting Xia Bao, PETA Asia, the largest animal protection organization in the world, awarded Yang Xiaohu the "Influence" Award for this.

It is also possible that Yang Xiaohu deliberately showed her love for cats.

No gossip.

Blessed by the popularity of the mv and songs, after the release of the new version of "You at the Same Table", the first edition of 50 copies was sold out in two days.

Lu Jinbo immediately printed 150 million copies!
Zhou Xia specifically told Lu Jinbo that anyone who bought an old version of a novel can exchange for a new hardcover version as long as they make up the difference with the old book.

The hardcover version of the new book comes with an MV single as a gift, which is his feedback to book fans and fans.

The production cost of records is relatively low, and the price of pressed CDs starts at 1000 CDs at 1 yuan each, at 10000 at 0.7 yuan each, at 5 or more at 0.50 yuan each, at 1000 DVDs at 2 yuan each, and at 10000 at 1 yuan each. From 5 sheets, 0.8 yuan each.

Zhou Xia's single has a mv, of course it is in dvd format, 10 copies were printed for the first time, if there are not enough copies, they will be printed again.

After all, the old version had sold more than 60 copies in total, so he called it a stop, and there may not be many people who would come to exchange money for the book.

In addition to these things, Xue Xiaolu also had news about the movie.

"Ocean Paradise" will participate in the Shanghai International Film Festival in early June. After the exhibition, it will be officially released on Father's Day on June 6.

Two versions of the trailer have been released before, and the latest version has just been released.

Zhou Xia was very dissatisfied after watching the latest 2-minute trailer.

This trailer edited just a movie outline, how could it be done like this?
It was originally a literary film, and if the plot is introduced like this, and the appeal of the film has not yet been shown, many people will lose the desire to go to the theater to watch it.

Trailer is an important part of movie promotion and marketing. What should be highlighted is the selling point of the movie, showing the essence and attractive clips, not the introduction of the movie plot.

Zhou Xia's heart moved, since Xue Xiaolu and the producer didn't pay much attention to it, or he was inexperienced, then he should do it.

Zhou Xia downloaded the three versions of the trailers that have already been released from the Internet, and plans to re-edit and combine them.

Sometimes whether it’s a movie or a script, if you adjust certain passages, it will give people a different feeling.

In the case of the trailer, this effect contrast will be more obvious.

It took Zhou Xia half a day to complete the new trailer in the editing room rented by their TV drama production team at the school.

In fact, he didn't do much work, mainly re-editing the trailer and rearranging the screen.

The dialogue of the characters in the original trailer was removed, and the voice part was retained.

The ten or so seconds at the beginning of the original trailer were very attractive, so he kept it.

He changed and replaced those that were not suitable for making trailers later.

At the beginning of the trailer, Dafu, wearing swimming goggles, lightly jumped into the blue water of the aquarium like a fish, and swam freely and happily in it.

There is an off-screen exclamation: "Oh my god, your family is blessed, that is a fish at all."

The screen changes to Wang Xincheng's back in blue overalls.

He sits alone in the aquarium, surrounded by beautiful dreamy scenes of fish swimming in the deep blue water world.

He sighed helplessly and responded: "Yeah, I was cast in the wrong baby and became a human. So, I'm autistic!"

Zhou Xia likes this opening very much. It has the finishing touch and suspense, which is attractive enough. The narration and the plot of the movie are all behind, which expose the whole story and make the audience lose suspense.

Zhou Xia's re-edited trailer is quite different.

The beginning is over, and the screen will turn next.

Thousands of miles of clear sky, under the clear blue sky, on the endless blue sea, a small boat swayed and stopped alone.

The scene zoomed in, Wang Xincheng and Dafu father and son in the boat jumped into the sea with anchors tied to their feet.

Wang Xincheng closed his eyes and let himself continue to sink in the water. Dafu has autism and didn't understand what was going on, so he didn't struggle.

The light in the sea gradually dimmed, and when it was almost completely dark, it quickly lit up, and various shocking and touching pictures flashed quickly one after another.

The picture of the father and son crying, the wire falling into the aquarium, and the big blessing floating on the surface of the pool.

Wang Xincheng suffers from liver cancer, trembling and taking medicine, a circus performance outside the aquarium, and people watching.

Gui Meilun dressed as a clown, looking at each other with Dafu; Gao Yuanyuan walking on the beach in the early morning sad scene, Wang Xincheng's funeral, etc.

The rhythm of the soundtrack changes with the movie screen, sometimes tense, sometimes low, sometimes soothing, sometimes fast.

Finally, the names of the gorgeous main creative lineup, Li Lianjie, Hisaishi Joe, and Duke Feng appeared one by one.

There is no introduction to the plot, and what the movie specifically tells is left to suspense for everyone to guess based on the trailer.

Such a trailer shows the selling points and attractive places of the movie, and it will also make people look forward to it.

After Zhou Xia finished editing, she was extremely satisfied. This is the trailer, and only those who are interested can pay to enter the cinema!
Send the new trailer to Yang Tianzhen and ask her to arrange fans to help promote it.

Then, Zhou Xia himself posted it on Weibo.

Who made him the leading role?
He couldn't watch such a good movie, and couldn't get the box office it deserved!
After Zhou Xia posted the new trailer, fans left messages one after another, praising the trailer as attractive, and they couldn't wait to watch it in theaters.

After fans forwarded it, more people saw it, more discussions, and more popularity.

After all, the producers thought too simple, maybe they also wanted to save money, thinking that with Li Lianjie, they didn't need to do much publicity to guarantee the movie's box office, and basically did nothing.

Therefore, Zhou Xia's publicity effect is even more obvious.

Finally, Ocean Paradise’s official promotional website in the movie section of Surf.com also resolutely borrowed the trailer.

After the film producer Zhang Huina knew about it, she guessed that Zhou Xia did it, so she called to express her gratitude and offered to compensate Zhou Xia for the production cost of [-] yuan.

Zhou Xia shook her head and smiled wryly.

Some merchants offered [-] to [-] yuan to help him repost a Weibo, but he didn't accept it.

He edited the trailer and added promotion, fifty thousand? 50 is not enough!
Xue Xiaolu shook her head slightly after watching Zhou Xia's trailer.

She edited the trailer, she and Zhou Xia have two different ideas.

She wanted to introduce the movie calmly, but the trailer seemed monotonous and unattractive. Zhou Xia was just the opposite, mainly thinking about attracting people into the cinema.

It would be much better if it was added in this way. Xue Xiaolu thanked Zhou Xia and promised to owe him a favor.

Compared with 5 yuan, Zhou Xia also values ​​friendship with these people more.

After finishing the trailer, I continued to focus on the post-production of the TV series.

The rough cut was completed during filming, and after showing it to several investors and TV stations, they were very satisfied and urged to speed up the production.

Now I am mainly busy with fine editing, special effects, and dubbing synthesis.

While Zhou Xia was staring at it, more of it was handed over to Zhang Weihua, the coordinator of post-production, to let him lead the team to continue the production.

Time soon came to April [-]th, the tenth audition of Zhou Xia and Dou Xiao ended, and both of them received the notice to join the group.

But who they are starring in and what roles they will play have not yet been decided, and there are only three of the five candidate protagonists.

The two were worried and looking forward to it, but there was nothing they could do.

Zhou Xia reckoned that Lao Mouzi must have already figured it out, but he still had something to think about, so he wanted to wait a week before entering the group for formal shooting to see the effect.

In the end, it is announced who is the protagonist, and those who cannot play the leading role will probably be compensated with a supporting role.

　ps: Chapter 2 is updated, this story will end soon, and the next stage of the protagonist's career development will enter the climax, everyone supports it!
