Chapter 86: A Visit to Professor Guo
The atmosphere at the premiere venue was high.
The hour and a half ended quickly, and when the curtain ended, the audience erupted in enthusiastic applause.
The few people in the back row who came to find Chen Xiao's autograph applauded even more enthusiastically.
Originally, they just came to ask for an autograph, but they didn't expect to have the opportunity to watch a movie, and it was such a wonderful movie.
At this time, they felt that they had not waited for an hour in the sun in vain.
Now it's literally earned.
Even they felt that they didn't enjoy it enough, so they decided to wait until the release time to watch it again.
Facing the applause, Chen Xiao and Wan Yushan walked back to the stage.
Wan Yushan was very happy, he didn't look at the screen much during the whole process, and he was observing the audience's reaction.
What reassures him is that the response from the audience has been great.
This proves that his movie is successful, at least the reputation should still be good, even if it is a box office hit in the end, it is Chen Xiao's money, not his.
All he needs is a good reputation.
Of course, it is best if the box office is a little higher, and the difference between a 10 million director and a 100 million yuan director is still very big.
"Do you have anything else you would like to ask?"
Reporters in the entertainment industry are not lacking in eyesight, and they have all seen the unique shooting methods of this movie, and even they think that this movie may be popular.
Originally, they all came to complete the mission, and their enthusiasm was not high.
But if the movie "Stone" can really be popular, then they have the most first-hand information here.
So what are you waiting for without interviews now?
Then the reporters came around with much more enthusiasm than they had come.
The main target is still Wan Yushan, asking him why he used such a shooting technique, and there are questions such as framing.
Actors such as Chen Xiao and Xu Shao are a little redundant on the side.
Overall, this premiere was a great success.
In the end, Wan Yushan took a room of reporters and film critics to the hotel for a big meal, these are all old men, and they have to be served well.
Chen Xiao did not follow, but held a small signing meeting in the empty venue.
Each of these people held a book, lined up, and came to Chen Xiao one by one, and Chen Xiao did not hesitate to sign his name.
"Director Chen, your movie is so good, can you sign a name with me?"
"Yes, thank you for enjoying my movie. ”
"Thank you, Director Chen!"
Well, even the audience who hadn't left was attracted and began to line up one by one.
I don't have a book either, so I just take a piece of paper.
Chen Xiao was a little depressed, there were already more than 30 books, but now there are more and more people signing them.
Chen Xiao signed it for a while, and found that the more he looked at his name, the more it looked like it, but this was indeed his own name, and his eyes were a little dazzled.
Come on.
Originally, he saw that he was a book lover, and he planned to hold an autograph session.
It's better to dispel this idea as soon as possible.
"Teacher Chen, sign here for me!"
Chen Xiao signed his name on the book, but then felt that something was wrong, why was the voice so familiar?
He looked up and found that it was one of Bai Yiyi's friends.
He took a look at Bai Yiyi and found that Bai Yiyi was sitting on the side, looking at him, and then looked behind this girl, another friend of Bai Yiyi was also queuing.
"What are you doing here, and where are you getting the book? ”
You know, there are no bookstores around here, and even if there is, there is no one going back and forth so quickly.
"I bought someone else's, I paid three times the price, and then your book lover sold it to me, you see, he ran out of books, so he went back. ”
Chen Xiao looked at the door, and sure enough, he saw two Xiao Se figures.
"Well, you win. ”
Chen Xiao immediately signed his name, and also wrote a blessing: "I wish you a good life, happiness, and the longer you go, the more beautiful you are!"
"Thank you, your handwriting is so beautiful. ”
The little girl put away her book and hugged it in her arms very happily.
Finally, all the names that need to be signed have been signed.
Chen Xiao packed up his things and beckoned to Bai Yiyi to go back, and when he was about to get in the car, he heard someone shouting: "Chen Xiao, come on!"
He looked at it, and it was a little girl.
It seems that because he finally mustered up his courage, his face is still a little red.
Chen Xiao smiled and gave her a thumbs up, and then got into the car.
"Well, now I don't find out that I have a lot of fans. ”
Bai Yiyi glanced at him: "Stinky beauty!"
How could Chen Xiao's cheekiness care about the roll of his eyes, and still asked with a smile: "What do you want to eat, I'll treat you." ”
"I want to eat Quanjude. ”
"Okay, you have to sit down, and when I drive to Yanjing, it may be tomorrow. ”
Of course, Quan Jude was joking, and in the end he took the three little girls to the hot pot restaurant near Bai Yiyi's house and had a hot pot.
The two girls were on one side, and Chen Xiao and Bai Yiyi were sitting on the other.
When girls are outsiders, they eat very slowly, and Chen Xiao deliberately eats very slowly.
Eating or anything is secondary, and enhancing the relationship is the most important.
After eating for an hour, Chen Xiao reluctantly went over to settle the bill.
I said hello to the three of them before driving away.
Bai Yiyi said that he was going to Yanjing to eat Quanjude, which was a joke, but Chen Xiao was indeed going to Yanjing.
No, it's because of Professor Guo's invitation.
Chinese Cultural Exchange Association.
The main purpose of this cultural exchange meeting is to promote Chinese culture and show the image of the vigorous development of Chinese culture.
Ordinary people, if they don't have a special work, they won't be invited at all.
Chen Xiao was able to get invited, naturally because of Professor Guo.
But without Professor Guo's invitation, Chen Xiaoxian, as a best-selling author, can still apply for tickets on his own.
As for the promotion of the movie, he temporarily handed it over to Wan Yushan for pre-promotion.
This month, the network operation of "Comet" earned him more than 20 million, and Chen Xiao directly took out 5 million to promote "Stone".
Of course, this is just some theater promotional posters and the like in the early stage, and the subsequent publicity still depends on himself.
It still costs a lot of money.
......
When I arrived in Yenching, the first thing I did was to visit Professor Guo first.
His novels can be published abroad, and Professor Guo has also contributed a lot, so he should pay a visit.
found a fruit store that sold better, bought a bag of fruits, and Chen Xiao carried them to Professor Guo's house.
Ringing the doorbell, the door was opened by a woman, a little older, but in good spirits.
"Hello, am I looking for Professor Guo?"
"Oh yes, come in. ”
This person hurriedly welcomed Chen Xiao into the house, and then shouted into the house: "Lao Guo, someone is looking for you." ”
"Hey, here we are. ”
This woman looked like Professor Guo's wife, and while Professor Guo had not yet come, she warmly invited Chen Xiao to sit down first, and poured him a glass of water with the hot water kettle on the table.
"Are you a student of Lao Guo?"
"No, Professor Guo helped me publish a book. ”
"Oh, in this way, our old Guo likes to read, and the publishing house didn't let him go to work in the first place, but he ran over and asked for a position.
But his vision is still good, and if he can help you publish, it must be that you write well, otherwise it would be good if he didn't blow your beard and stare at you. ”
