There is basically no time limit for how long a movie can be released after it has been filmed.

If it's fast, it's a few months, it's a year or two slower, and some of them will never have a chance to be released, but they will be filmed, maybe because of some problems, the movie will eventually become yellow.

From receiving the first script before the summer vacation of '98, to May '99, Zhou Bai made a total of three movies.

In less than a year, he basically spent most of his time in the crew, and attending classes has become a luxury, and he feels a little helpless when he thinks about it, and the time to go to school is getting less and less.

A supporting role in a movie, two protagonists, the output is high, and other people may not have the opportunity to serve as the leading actor in a main theme movie, a supporting actor in a film with the largest director in China, and the leading actor in an urban love movie.

Zhou Bai knows that he can play the leading role, first of all, his professional ability is good enough, this is the premise of everything, if his acting skills are not good, everything is in vain, and secondly, Zhang Yimou's appreciation has given him a certain popularity in the film and television industry, at least some directors know Zhou Bai, and the third is to make good connections, and the power of connections also plays a big role in it.

Now Zhou Bai is not well-known at all in the eyes of the general public, and he is not even familiar with his face, and people who are not in the film and television industry don't know Zhou Bai's name at all.

Now the most famous people in the Chinese opera 96 acting class are Mei Ting, Zhang Ziyi, Yuan Xiang, Liu Ye, and then Zhou Bai, the so-called fame of course does not only refer to the small circle of Chinese opera, but the entire country.

Zhang Ziyi has no works released, but her exposure in the media is not low, from the start of the film to the later stage of the movie, Zhang Ziyi's attention as the heroine of Zhang Yimou's movie is overwhelming, and the limelight is much higher than Zhou Bai.

In addition to Mei Ting, Class 96 is definitely the most famous for Zhang Ziyi, and now most people mention Zhang Ziyi's name and know that she is the heroine of Lao Mouzi.

Mei Ting is now very famous, "Red Lover" made her win the Best Actress Award at the Cairo International Film Festival, although "Northern Story" was mediocre after the broadcast, but the audience also remembered her, and there was a TV series "Home" released later, she already has a good audience.

Yuan Yu and Liu Ye have works that have been released, and their performances in the movie are very exciting, which makes the audience remember, at least they have a part of the audience base, and sometimes they are occasionally recognized, although they are both fledgling newcomers, they are also well developed.

Only Zhou Bai is very hard, none of the three movies has been released until now, plus he is devoted to the movie, and there is no brokerage company to help plan, so the exposure rate is zero, and even now, he has never been interviewed, and it is a very amazing thing to think about.

It can't be said that there was no interview, at least when "My Father and Mother" was turned on, a reporter took photos and appeared in the newspaper, and when "National Anthem" was turned on, it seemed that a reporter asked him a few words, but the main focus was on Wu Ziniu, and "Blue Love" didn't even notify the reporter when it was turned on, so strictly speaking, Zhou Bai played soy sauce twice.

The later stage of the movie "My Father and Mother" has been completed, Lao Mouzi began to think about the release and promotion of the movie, he was busy for more than half a year, and finally remembered Zhou Bai, and made a phone call.

"Director Zhang, why do I have an interview? Isn't our movie mainly promoting you and Ziyi?" Zhou Bai was very surprised, Lao Mouzi said that he was asked to accept an exclusive interview with "China Screen", which made him a little overwhelmed, when will he also have a share of the official monthly magazine like "China Screen"?

If all kinds of film and television newspapers and magazines are the most influential, the 20th century must be "Popular Film" and "Film World", and in the 21st century, it will definitely be "Watching Movies".

"This is a newspaper under China Film, and our film has been set to be released in October, although it is still a little far from the release time, but the early warm-up still has to be done. It just so happens that there is this opportunity, it is an interview to introduce the part of the movie actors, Ziyi has been in a lot of newspapers and magazines before, and the effect may not be too good again, I think you haven't had any exposure yet, so I just let you come, you kid won't be cowardly, right?"

Yes, Zhou Bai understands what Lao Mouzi means, which means that I can't watch "Chinese Screen" anyway, Zhang Ziyi's exposure is enough, and it is still warmed up, but how can it be considered publicity in magazines, your kid's role is not embarrassing or embarrassing, just right, don't be cowardly, hurry up if you have the opportunity, don't embarrass me.

"Surely not, isn't it just a monthly movie magazine? It's just that I've never been interviewed before, so I'm afraid I'll say the wrong thing. Zhou Bai is definitely not cowardly, but after all, for the first time, those who do media are masters of playing with their hearts, and if they say the wrong thing, it will have a bad impact.

"You don't have to worry about this, this is a magazine under China Film, I have already greeted their leaders, and I will not deliberately embarrass you, with your knowledge and changes, I'm afraid that reporters can't play with you." Lao Mouzi said with a smile, making Zhou Bai on the other end of the phone feel that he was very kind, what is this illusion?

"Are you praising me or hurting me? We are the four good young people under the red flag of socialism, and Coco will play with them, what am I trying to do, right? How is your health lately, you are busy, you still have to pay attention to your body. Zhou Bai said hehehe, and then cared about Lao Mouzi's physical condition, which can be regarded as a greeting.

"You have a heart, my old problem has not been committed again for half a year, thanks to your medicine, I have suffered a lot less. Lao Mouzi said, now he is much better in all aspects of his body than before, and he has not recurred in the past six months, and when he was filming the movie, he felt that the medicine prepared by Zhou Bai had a good effect, so he insisted on taking it, and now the stomach disease has never recurred.

Speaking of stomach disease, this is a torturous disease, Lao Mouzi was tossed to death during the filming of "My Father and Mother" last year, and almost went to the hospital to recuperate, if it wasn't for Zhou Bai's medicine, I don't know how much pain I would have suffered.

"You're so polite, this is a family heirloom given to me by my grandfather, and it's not a precious thing, thank God for the good effect. Zhou Bai hurriedly said.

"Haha, I won't bother you, they will call you for interview questions, you just pay more attention. By the way, I have seen the sample film of "National Anthem", you acted very well, there are breakthroughs, it is very exciting, continue to work hard. At the end of the call, Zhang Yimou also encouraged Zhou Bai.

Zhou Bai was very excited in his heart, Lao Mouzi can be said to have the grace of knowing and teaching him, and he also maintained a good connection, it was a lucky thing to be guided by him for the first time in film shooting, and now getting a good evaluation from his mouth is far more meaningful to Zhou Bai than being famous or something.
