After that, the scenes are simple, only to make up some shots.

For example, when Li Jie walked out of the palace, Hong Chen couldn't bear to kill him, but the soldiers around him were shouting: "King, kill! King, kill!"

This scene wants to shoot Hong Chen's hesitation and reluctance, as well as the change in his expression when he finally relents.

There are also some action scenes, which also require him to play against Chaowei and make up shots.

Hong Chen and Zhang Hai said that they hoped to shoot a few more days to make the film more perfect, and he was not in a hurry to leave.

"Aren't you in a hurry to announce the next play?" asked Zhang Hai suspiciously.

He wished that Hong Chen would stay for a few more days, but this time he was in a hurry to find Hong Chen to act, and there was no coordination schedule in the early stage, so he could understand if Hong Chen left early.

"It will take a while over there for the time being, Director Zhang, you asked me to film, I will definitely have to shoot your scene to the best before leaving. Hong Chen replied with a smile.

Of course, in fact, he was in order to be able to accompany Yan Yileng for a few more days.

Zhang Hai was very moved, and felt that Hong Chen was a person who did things from beginning to end, and was very reliable.

So, after a while, it was not until the beginning of August that Hong Chen left Hengdian.

During these days, he and Yan Yileng are also very happy.

Then, it was time for the publicity and distribution of "Scorching Sun".

The distribution of the film was in charge of the theater chain by Blue Star Pictures, and the publicity required Cao Baoping and several leading actors to attend several events.

However, the movie also encountered some problems.

The first is that the department responsible for reviewing the film has some disagreements about the film. Some people think that the content of this play is too dark and the scale is too large, and they do not agree to be too provincial.

Others don't think it's a big deal.

It is a very troublesome thing to go through the province, if the department really does not agree, the director can only take the film back, revise it again and then apply for review.

After Hong Chen learned about this, he immediately called Yan Chi.

"Hey, Yan Chi, you ask Uncle Yan, what's going on with "Scorching Sun" before it has passed the province? I want to know. ”

Hong Chen felt that the situation was not right, because it stands to reason that this movie should not be approved or not.

Of course, what Hong Chen didn't know was that this movie in the parallel world was delayed for five years before it could be screened.

"Okay, you wait for me. After Yan Chi heard Hong Chen's request, he immediately called his father to find out the ins and outs of the matter.

Not long after, Yan Chi called Hong Chen back.

"Bad news, it looks like this movie is in trouble, it's clear that someone is messing with you. Yan Chi's voice sounded a little serious.

"Who are you?" Hearing Yan Chi's news, Hong Chen's voice also sank.

"I don't know exactly, but it's certain that a movie at the same time as yours was doing this. It's not that you don't know about malicious competition. ”

"Malicious competition. Hearing this, Hong Chen's face sank.

Malicious competition is all too common in this industry.

To put it bluntly, in order to make their movies more popular, some producers will wantonly slander and smear other people's movies through some unsightly means.

even does not hesitate to let other people's movies be labeled as "bad movies".

The most common means of malicious competition is to brush scores. is to hire a large number of water armies to go to Maoyan, buy tickets, brush ratings, and reviews, and create an illusion to the audience that this is a very bad movie.

Audiences often look at ratings and reviews before watching a movie, which will undoubtedly make the box office of the movie fall off a cliff.

There are various means of vicious competition attacks, spraying plots, spraying characters, spraying acting, and spraying small fresh meat......

And it's easy for the audience to be brought in and think that everyone thinks so, and he thinks so too.

After all, there is a part of the audience that is not particularly sane. Others say that this is a bad movie, and he also thinks that this is a bad movie, otherwise he is worried that others will say that his aesthetics are too low-level.

In fact, some films really can't be defined as "bad movies", after all, there are many people who like them.

Of course, there are also many sensible viewers who will not listen to other people's random discussions, have opinions, and think that good is good, and others say that this is a bad movie, it has nothing to do with me.

There are local rules that explicitly prohibit malicious competition.

But the market is regulated by people, and there will always be people who will do whatever it takes to achieve their ends.

It is normal for movies to have competition between them, for example, during the Spring Festival last year, "Detective Chinatown" and four big-budget movies competed on the same stage, and everyone showed their talents.

At this time, each company is more likely to promote its own movies through short videos, advertisements, etc., and continue to attract fans, so as to gain higher popularity.

It's healthy competition.

The situation of vicious competition is very complicated, and it is not uncommon for the producers of the two films to pinch each other.

"There are two movies in the same period, one is "Dream Music Circle" and the other is "Nine-Story Demon Tower", which one will it be?"

In this case, it is troublesome.

Because the other party clearly wants to mess with you, he has already clearly torn his face.

The box office of a movie is based on 100 million, and if you make it, you can make a lot of money, and if you lose money, you may go bankrupt.

So for the sake of the box office, many producers have given up the moral bottom line.

The problem of passing the province does not need to worry about Hong Chen, Cao Baoping is also a powerful person, it took a lot of effort to dredge the relationship above, but it also solved this matter.

But being yin by someone, there is always a little bit of unhappiness in it.

Moreover, since the other party has begun to play tricks, he will definitely not give up in the future.

Then, the publicity work began, and Cao Baoping took Hong Chen, Guo Tao, Duan Hong and others to run the city's propaganda activities to build momentum for the film.

Audiences in several cities were enthusiastic.

However, because of the lack of investment on the Internet and the lack of eye-catching subject matter, the response of the movie on the Internet is mediocre, and it is not as good as the previous movies, and the trailer can arouse people's discussion as soon as it comes out.

This situation is normal, Cao Baoping's movies are originally in this style.

He has so many excellent films before, and they rarely hit in the publicity stage. Of course, his own reluctance to spread propaganda is also one thing.

Because propaganda is very expensive, the amount spent is very exaggerated.

Just a short video platform, if you want to promote it, you will have to spend at least tens of millions.

There are many crews, and it is not uncommon for the cost of publicity to be higher than the cost of filming.

Cao Baoping prefers to invest money in filming, in his opinion, publicity work must be done, but there is no need to be so fanfare.

On the other hand, it was "Dream Music Circle", because the publicity campaign was well promoted, and the theme told the story of a group of young people working hard for music, it became a small hit.

And the producers of "Dream Music Circle" spent some money to make their movie on Weibo hot search.

The movie's traffic skyrocketed for a while.

For such a result, Cao Baoping is very calm.

He believes that the real key to a movie is whether it will be recognized by the audience after its release.

After all, whoever has the last laugh will have the best laugh.

Several movies are scheduled for September 5th, the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The day is approaching, and when the time comes, it is bound to be another tragic battle.
