Chapter 0440 - Happy to dedicate Ji Xiaoming
Regarding the fact that "Silence" was nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Film, in fact, Ji Ming didn't pay much attention to it, the influence of the Oscar lies in the strength of Hollywood and the North American market, but if you want to say what a valuable award it is, not really. As far as this award is concerned, the competition is actually big, basically the major international film festivals, the best works of each country, will participate in foreign language films, but this kind of gathering of good films does not mean that the award itself has the highest value, because the selection of people are purely from the Oscar Academy, their film aesthetics, value orientation, and even political tendencies, etc., are naturally limited.
So at least for Ji Ming, the three major European ones are the affirmations he hopes to pursue, and in terms of influence and commercial value, the Oscar may be greater, but in his heart, it is indeed not a very important goal.
After "Silence" was in Venice, they have been in contact with overseas distributors, and they also want to cooperate with overseas companies in such a film that has attracted a lot of attention in Europe and some parts of Asia, so they have also been talking to various companies. Among them, a company in North America was quite subjective and proactive after learning that "Silence" was selected for the Oscars, and expressed its willingness to do public relations for "Silence" in North America, that is, the counterpart publicity of the Oscars - including sending samples to film critics, organizing small-scale screenings, and putting publicity resources in film and television media.
Generally speaking, the commercial value of foreign language films is mostly limited, and it is unlikely that a lot of resources will be invested in this matter, and it is even more impossible for foreign producers - therefore, after several stakeholders of "Silence" discussed, they signed it, anyway, the focus of overseas distribution is in Europe, Asia, and North America, and you can make as much money as you can.
Ji Ming didn't even pay much attention to this matter, and Yang Ruyi handled it all on his behalf.
He really doesn't have that much energy right now.
After the release of the musical "Silence", it can be said that under the joint promotion of pre-publicity and post-screening word-of-mouth, coupled with the various titles given to it by major media, "the first year of musicals", "catching up with the United States of the United Kingdom", "top level" and "a classic of the world's famous drama", ...... The popularity and reputation are unimaginable before.
In the observation report issued by Tiancheng Culture, "Mo" has even become a musical IP that can be compared with "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Cats" in the domestic market - this is very remarkable, which means that if these people plan to go to a stage play one day, "Mo" will be one of their first choices, and it is entirely possible to maintain and deepen this trend after later operation and continuous publicity. After all, it is the light of domestic production, and it is somewhat convenient to publicize it.
This situation is the best outcome, much better than all parties imagined.
Tiancheng Culture has begun to recruit a new cast of actors, in addition to Ji Ming, they hope that at least three groups can tour at home and abroad at the same time, which means that there need to be four or five, or even more actors, who have the conditions to be on stage, then it is equivalent to the scale of nearly 100 actors in "Mo", even in a big drama like "The Phantom of the Opera", this scale is quite considerable.
In addition, it is necessary to develop a special version for most small theaters, because the hardware limitations of small theaters themselves are relatively large, and they are not suitable for and do not need to be as comprehensive as the premiere version. This is also a must be done, it seems that the small theater is not as good as the big theater, a down is a million box office, most of the small theaters may be tens of thousands of dollars of box office, but it can't hold its number, there are hundreds of small theaters of all kinds in the capital alone, and hundreds of troupes present different stage performances every day, from drama to drama, to cross talk, to talk show, to concert...... It's an area that can't be abandoned.
For Tiancheng Culture under the name of Ji Ming, the tour of "Mo" will also become a sustainable source of income, not counting the first round of such a terrifying documentary box office, its annual box office reaches tens of millions and exceeds 100 million, which is conceivable.
Such an ace musical has immeasurable advantages for Tiancheng's follow-up production of new musical projects and introduction to the market - it can be said that the success of "Mo" has truly opened the benign development of Tiancheng Culture as a content producer.
Mr. Wang of the light, when he congratulated Ji Ming, he was a little sour.
When we first talked about cooperation, there was a plan, that is, Guangguang invested in Tiancheng Culture, and then Tiancheng Culture invested in "Nezha", but in the end, because the two sides had different views on the valuation of Tiancheng Culture, which led to the establishment of a new joint venture company - now it seems that after the success of "Mo", Tiancheng Culture has become a wonder in the overshadowed film and television investment market, and the musical market is a blue ocean with a compound growth rate of double digits after all.
So far, Ji Ming has moved from investment to the category of doing business, and the further formalization of Tiancheng culture is also imminent.
In addition, he still has to perform, he has to participate in the promotion of the movie, and he has to prepare for the English version of the performance...... People are busy like a spinning top, not at all like a person who says he wants to retire. Those in the market who say that he doesn't make new dramas, doesn't do variety shows, and doesn't know where to lie down, it's ruthless.
……
Ji Ming crossed his arms and watched the whole show, this was the first time he had watched Fu Chengjie's version of the performance in its entirety, and he really couldn't spare time before.
Fu Chengjie's feelings for Ji Ming, who is not only a boss, a teacher, but also a guiding light and an idol, are not ordinary, knowing that he is going to come to see it today, the whole thing is also extraordinary, and many audiences are addicted - in the collection of opinions after the performance, many audiences have expressed this.
"Originally, I thought that Group B would not be so exciting, because many actors may not know each other, and the leading actor is a newcomer. But after watching it today, I didn't expect the effect to be so good, singing, acting, and dancing are all very good, I feel very rare, and it is worth the ticket price. ”
"Because I couldn't buy tickets for Ji Ming's performance, I wanted to say that I would buy Group B first, but I found that it was too exciting, and there was a feeling that the aesthetic standards had been raised. I'm looking forward to Ji Ming's version even more, and I hope to have the opportunity to get tickets for the second round of performances soon. ”
"Fu Chengjie is a senior student at Beijing Dance University, and I have seen his information on the Internet before, so I didn't have great expectations, but he gave me a big surprise. ”
"I came for Fu Fu, because I saw that some people in the group said that he played very well, called him 'Little Ji Ming', and said that it was the same as Ji Ming when he played "Thunderstorm", and I also hope that he can become the second Ji Ming. ”
Fu Chengjie is indeed well-known on the Internet now, especially in the musical and stage drama circles, a prince title has been obtained, and it was mentioned in a report - "The new little prince of the musical who is a new student in the school of Beiwu is talking about him".
Ji Ming also nodded.
Fu Chengjie is different from him, Ji Ming himself has practiced various skills to the full point, and then honed in within the framework of a very familiar story, and finally contributed an unparalleled performance, whether it is individual or overall, it is the top level, and it can be said to be unique. And Fu Chengjie is a typical musical actor, you have to bring out his singing, dancing, and acting, and compare them with singers, dancers, and actors, in fact, they may not be particularly outstanding, but the three in one form a unified performance, and the effect is definitely greater than 3, and this effect of mutual achievement is his talent in musicals.
"Teacher Ji. ”
Ji Ming looked at him sweating: "Hurry up and change your clothes, you acted very well." ”
Fu Chengjie went to change his clothes excitedly, and ran over to sit next to Ji Ming, suddenly like a big dog sitting on the ground, his invisible tail was in a trance-begging for praise.
"Today I feel like you're in a good state, the amplitude and fluency of your emotions are very good, and it feels like the whole person has been further opened up and freer. Ji Ming let him get his wish: "You have to think about it, why you can do it, strive to turn it into a thing that you can control, turn abnormal performance into normal performance, and then continue to strive for extraordinary performance on a new basis, so that your level will continue to rise, and your ability will continue to rise." ”
Fu Chengjie nodded again and again.
"You know that musicals in our country are developing very fast now, especially after the release of "Silence", everyone's enthusiasm for musicals has increased dramatically. I hope you will be an actor in this process. Ji Ming said sincerely: "So I'll give you a suggestion, if you have time, you can go to see the newcomer Yang Ming, find your own shortcomings from them, and systematically think about your own performance system and art theory from the process of guiding them." ”
Excited.
This is to leave a name in history, will there be a "four sons of Ji Mingmen" or something like that in the future, just like Tongtian Sect leader Wang Yaoqing accepted four disciples, known as the four famous Dans, Mei Lanfang, Xun Huisheng, Shang Xiaoyun, Cheng Yanqiu, a prosperous era of opera, musicals may not have that day.
"Teacher, don't worry, I will work hard. Fu Chengjie thought for a while: "I don't know how to act or anything, I like to act in musicals, don't worry." ”
What a cute little kid.
Yang Ruyi watched Fu Chengjie leave high-spirited, and shook his head: "I was fooled." ”
"Who fooled him?"
"You're not asking him to mentor newcomers?"
Ji Ming was angry: "How can you look at me like this? Think about myself, when I played "Thunderstorm", didn't I also direct it for nothing? I started acting in movies, and I only got the money of an actor, and I haven't always been a director? I can have today, all because I am willing to contribute, and sum up experience from dedication, improve myself, this is the biggest secret of my success, I don't tell him most people. Now that I have told Fu Fu, you actually doubt me. ”
"Your biggest secret, isn't it God's illegitimate son? The concubine of the goddess of luck? The muse of the goddess of art, and the Venus of beauty? The koi fish in the merit pool, the auspicious rui floating in the Yellow River, and the lucky boy who was smashed on the head by the elixir, these are your secrets. ”
"......" Ji Ming looked at her complicatedly, Yang Ruyi was really experienced, this mouthful: "Your secret, is it a broken beak parrot?"
The corners of Yang Ruyi's mouth twitched, unwilling to talk nonsense with him.
Today, in addition to taking a look at the performance of Fu Chengjie's group, it is to discuss the arrangements for the second round of tours of groups B and C, because Ji Ming will take time to perform the English version after the first round of tours, so the personnel of Group A should also be mixed with groups B and C, such as putting Fu Chengjie in Group A and Lian Haiyang in Group B, so that the group will be more free, and it can also avoid some unexpected circumstances that will hinder the performance.
After the discussion, it was already the beginning of the lanterns, Ji Ming invited a few people to dinner, and called Fu Chengjie as well - tomorrow is the press conference for the release of the movie "Silence", Ji Ming invited a few people from the musical side to participate in the grand event, counting Fu Chengjie as one, and pushing him. Tomorrow's media attention will definitely far exceed that of musicals.
……
Ji Ming's fans, with the mentality of making one less time, formulated a support plan for this release conference early.
After getting the information of the venue in advance, I first bought the light poles on several main roads around the hotel, and the media reporters came all the way over, and they could see the promotional posters and release time of "Mo", and the huge "Ji Ming" and "Venice Actor" were even more eye-catching; and then on both sides of the red carpet, a large area was cleared, so that thousands of fans from all over the world could stand down, and various call sign program training was in place, so as to be enthusiastic but not excessive, and there was a row but not chaotic; Arm rings, light signs, banners, hand banners, and roll-up banners form a blue ocean, which is frightening, and the two rows of propaganda balloons behind them are marked with the words "screening time and promotional slogan", fluttering high.
"It's as tight as a military formation. This is the word used by a certain media to describe it.
This feeling became even more vivid after Ji Ming stepped on the red carpet in the finale - previously, Ji Ming's fans warmly cheered for the guests and other creators, creating a good atmosphere, but when the main owner got off the car and walked on the red carpet.
Everyone knows so clearly - these are all fans of Ji Ming.
The cheers that rushed into the sky, the surging tide of cheers, and the call for "Ji Ming" one after another, corresponded to the soles of the feet that did not move, and the formation that was not chaotic - the requirements of the fan management are "how high the atmosphere can be made, and the discipline can not be violated at all", thousands of people, without rehearsal and guidance, all rely on the leaders and management of a group of fans from all over the world, and actually do the order and prohibition - sometimes it is really difficult to imagine that kind of fanatical dominance.
The star creators in the hotel, listening to the tsunami-like movement outside, smacked their tongues and sighed, and once again realized that this is one of the kings of the traffic era. And the media around the red carpet, under the sound of click-click shooting, are constantly comparing the execution and fanaticism of the fan group, and they can't help but be shocked.
Ji Ming has been cheering for this kind of time for a long time.
But he is very calm, he is now more and more able to feel the sincerity from this collective fanaticism, and then return to the sincerity - in fact, it is a tacit understanding to help Ji Ming and his fans, under the increasingly huge amount of traffic, still be able to achieve self-control, otherwise it may be that the bad things that are brushing the list, tearing up the comparison, and competing for positions everywhere today will also appear in Ji Ming's fans, and it will not be an exception.
I have to say that compared with Ji Ming's miraculous achievements in acting work, his achievements in handling fan relations are also a miraculous phenomenon in communication.
On this red carpet, he walked very long and slowly, here and there, in front and behind, some familiar ones waved their hands, and when they saw interesting supporters, they also took a closer look, mainly for everyone to take pictures and record videos.
The one-eyed wolf reporter looked at Ji Ming, who was walking by Shi Shiran in thousands of cheers, with a calm temperament, and couldn't help but think of a word: Return to the roots, the general trend has been achieved!
