With the spread of publicity, the main creators of the crew of "Fifty Times of First Love" also started a nationwide publicity journey, I have to say that running publicity is a very hard thing, but for the sake of the box office, this is also a helpless thing.

Actors don't necessarily resist publicity, at least for Li Bingbing, increasing exposure is a worthwhile thing, and frequent appearances on major TV stations, newspapers and magazines are very beneficial to the improvement of her fame.

Deng Chao, as a junior brother and a student in school, already has a certain fame because of his participation in the filming of "Fifty Times of First Love", and he suddenly appeared in the audience's field of vision as a newcomer, and he just brushed a wave of familiarity.

Let Liu Ye, Li Bingbing and Deng Chao follow the director Chen Jiashang to publicize, while Zhou Bai and Yuan Yu are divided into two ways with them as a couple, and all of a sudden, the popularity of "Fifty First Loves" has risen gradually, and it has reached the point where everyone knows about it.

The release of "Fifty First Loves" has done a good job, it can be regarded as a comprehensive rollout, and the support given by China Film is not small, and 270 copies have been sold, this number is almost the best result of domestic films in recent years, this is only a preliminary amount, if the results are better, it will increase immediately, and last year, "Life and Death Choice" relied on the support of the charter of primary and secondary schools in state-owned enterprises across the country, and only sold 450 copies.

The film viewing party held by China Film was very successful, and the managers of the theater chain were also confident in the quality of "Fifty Times of First Love", and with the development of the publicity and marketing of "Fifty Times of First Love", the popularity became higher and higher, which also gave them confidence, so they sold so much at once.

When some people knew the number of copies sold, they were also a little frightened, 270 copies were sold, indicating that the theater side is more optimistic about the quality and box office of "Fifty Times of First Love", otherwise they would not buy copies to reflect, so if it is calculated, wouldn't the box office of "Fifty Times of First Love" really surprise everyone?

Zhou Bai's worries about the popularity of movies are far less than those about movie piracy, he is confident in quality, but he has no confidence in suppressing piracy, as long as it is at this stage, piracy is too rampant, and the more popular the movie, the more pirated it is.

Piracy also depends on the market, just like some time ago after "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss" won the award, domestic pirates tried their best to get the source of the film, if it were not for Zhou Bai did not do any action in the country at all, the movie HD disc would have appeared on the market long ago.

"Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss" video and DVD found that the copyright is still talking, this is a lot of money, if it is released, it will be pirated in minutes, it is better to sell this copyright first, and then release, it doesn't matter how much box office it can be at that time, anyway, the copyrights of surrounding countries have been sold almost all.

There are many reasons why piracy is rampant now, one is that the crackdown is not enough, and the other is that there are many channels that can be pirated, and even some are operated by internal ghosts.

This time, Zhou Bai still has to strictly guard against piracy, fortunately, the third master has a big face and also spoke, the theater manager still does not dare to offend the third master, and Zhou Bai has invested a sum of money in reporting and cracking down on piracy on the market, and strives not to have any pirated discs in the first round of movies.

According to the current situation, it is impossible to avoid any piracy during the release period, the only possibility is to guard as strictly as possible, try to delay the time, and the next day is a day, after all, it is all money.

In addition to piracy, there is also stealing the box office, as well as deliberate bad comments from film critics, and deliberate smears on the Internet, these are all things that Zhou Bai has a headache for, Zhou Bai can foresee that once "Fifty Times of First Love" is a box office hit, it will definitely be followed by all kinds of voices and all kinds of nonsense, things in the entertainment industry are never so simple, in order to be busy with these things, he can only take a little time every day to read the script of "Hero".

That's right, the script of "Hero" has been decided, and Zhou Bai also took the time to sign a contract with the new picture, with a salary of 150,000 US dollars, which is higher than Chen Daoming and Donnie Yen for all the leading actors, Uncle Daoming's salary is 100,000 US dollars, less than 1 million yuan, and Zhang Ziyi is 200,000 US dollars, which is still obtained when there are not many scenes.

This is something that can't be helped, although Zhou Bai is now familiar with his face in Europe, there is no good market for it, and even if it weren't for Lao Mouzi's insistence on using Zhou Bai, he might end up losing the role of the remnant sword.

Zhang Weiping wanted to use Liang Chaowei, the reason was that Liang Chaowei just won the Cannes Best Actor last year, there is a market in Europe, and he has a lot of fame with Zhou Bai, but Lao Mouzi insisted on using Zhou Bai, and even did not hesitate to quarrel with Zhang Weiping, and finally Zhang Weiping compromised.

Zhang Ziyi secretly told Zhou Bai the news, which shocked Zhou Bai, his face was not good-looking at that time, although Zhou Bai was very grateful to Lao Mouzi, but this feeling of relying on the support of others to get the role was not pleasant, and he was secretly ashamed.

To put it bluntly, this time inviting such a big-name star to film, Zhou Bai even has to be questioned about his qualifications to be the second male lead, Li Lianjie is a well-deserved male lead in the whole movie, and even if he Zhou Bai has the Golden Rooster actor, he is still questioned that he cannot play the role of the second male lead.

After Zhou Bai analyzed the situation by himself, he only had a wry smile, because this is really no wonder Zhang Weiping, at present, among the starring actors in this movie, he is even inferior to Chen Daoming in terms of qualifications, and he is better than Donnie Yen.

Li Lianjie doesn't say it, that's an international star, with a salary of tens of millions of dollars plus dividends, how can Zhang Manyu also be an international actress, although she is partial to literature and art, not a box office responsibility, but at least her international popularity is not comparable to Zhou Bai.

Chen Daoming is a veteran mainland actor, who has just won the Golden Rooster Actor, and he is obviously inferior to him in terms of qualifications, Zhang Ziyi's family at least has the glittering Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and he really can't compare.

is not as famous, his qualifications are not as good, his box office appeal is doubtful, but the role is quite heavy, if he wants to play a couple with Man Shen and play such an important role, it is no wonder that people will question him, but Zhou Bai still can't have a seizure, it is estimated that after the news of the confirmation of the actors of "Hero" comes out, the media will chase and block him and laugh at him, which makes Zhou Bai's heart a little depressed.

The sum of many things made Zhou Bai anxious, and there was even a kind of helplessness to be taken care of by the teacher when he took over the role, which made Zhou Bai's mood really not good, but soon, Zhou Bai's depression was swept away.
