099. The Tiger Can't Be Drawn

Pearl Theater has a long history and has witnessed almost the entire history of the development of Chinese films.

Time flies, and some of the theater halls are old, and the equipment is even more gap by other emerging 3D theaters in Shanghai.

Even so, the Pearl Theatre is still a popular premiere place for filmmakers, and hosting a premiere here has become a symbol of pride.

Century Entertainment's newcomers were arranged to walk at the front for this 15-meter-long red carpet show.

Hawk: When they were about to upload in the waiting area, they could still see several media adjusting their equipment without opening the lens cap.

Here Hawke met He Feng, who had been hidden for months.

It stands to reason that he, He Feng and Yang Shanshan are all newly signed by Founder, and Hawke and Fang Zheng don't say that they see each other every day, and it is already a convention to see each other once every three days.

During the time he was training in the crew of "The Emperor Ring", he was supervising the filming of Yang Shanshan's online drama, so it seems that he missed someone?

"What have you been doing lately?" Hawke asked He Feng as he was idle in the waiting area.

"Not to mention, last year was really my most unlucky year. He Feng looked helpless, and only said to Hawke after hiding the trademark on his clothes at the last time, "I originally negotiated a cameo, but I was cut off in the end." ”

Seeing what the other party said, Hawke didn't comment on anything, and if it continued like this, He Feng would be swept away by Century in less than a year.

"Get ready to enter!" said to a few newcomers from the Century Public Relations Department, "In groups of three, stay in the first and second districts for ten seconds to take pictures according to what I just said, and if there are questions from the media, respond simply, try to introduce the theme to this movie." ”

The newcomers nodded in understanding.

Appearing with Hawke is Yang Shanshan and another girl named Qiao Wan.

This girl used to be the school flower of Shanghai Film and Television Academy, and was signed by Century Entertainment in her freshman year.

Qiao Xiaohua stood next to Hawke, and she looked very beautiful, but she didn't feel any characteristics, and she was not as good as Yang Shanshan next to her.

The reporters who were chatting first on the red carpet saw that it was Hawke, who was still a star, and they sped up the speed of adjusting the equipment a little, and cheered up to take a few photos.

Yang Shanshan seemed to be walking slowly because of the high heels, and gradually distanced herself from Hawke and Qiao Wan, and when the two of them walked to the first area, Yang Shanshan was still five steps away from them.

"Hawke, look this way!" a familiar reporter shouted at Hawke with his camera.

The reporter who saw that it was a kiwi fruit had also seen it at his birthday party, and Hawke deliberately stayed for a few more seconds.

Qiao Wan, who was standing next to her, naturally put her right hand lightly on Hawke's shoulder and posed.

He looked over expressionlessly, and the girl gave her a white lotus smile.

Hawke quietly moved two steps to the right, distancing himself from Qiao Wan.

He is now a little envious of Yang Shanshan, who is walking behind, and he is really a fool and a fool.

The whole entrance ceremony was very short, a few newcomers heated up the venue, and then a few "friends in the main creative circle" came, and then the leading actors of "Cherished Lovers".

Qin Tianyu really startled Hawke when he entered, his usual dignified and graceful dress was gone, replaced by a bright red dress and strong makeup.

"I've seen the trailer, and Mr. Qin plays a woman who is poor, has never been in love, and has low emotional intelligence, and deliberately moves closer to comedy in appearance. He Feng said on the side, "I didn't expect to wear it so grandly today." ”

"It's a good thing that the image is changeable. Hawke chimed in.

In fact, he felt that Qin Tianyu's dress was not only not very amazing, but also lost his characteristics.

But fashion is something he doesn't understand.

After Qin Tianyu entered, what love was in her male supporting role in the movie, and she was best friends who helped her catch up with the male protagonist, the female supporting role, the male protagonist, and the director appeared successively.

This drama is filmed in the century, and what you want to praise is your own people, as for the others, they are just familiar characters in the film industry but have an average coffee position.

Before the screening, several main creators were also invited to the front to say a few words.

"It's my first time making a comedy film, and it's my first time writing a screenplay, and I hope you enjoy it. Qin Tianyu's eyes crossed the newcomer sitting in front of him, looked at the distant film review media, and said sincerely.

Hawke: They tried to applaud in response.

The so-called Chinese New Year movie is specially prepared for people who are tired and half dead after a year of work, and the plot is straightforward and simple.

In less than half an hour, Hawke was drowsy.

Isn't this the story template for an older young woman with braces who tried to take off her glasses and makeup for the first time with the encouragement of her best friend, and then turned into an intellectual beauty chasing the male god in a minute?

When Qin Tianyu on the screen in the fortieth minute was dressed up for the first time, Yang Shanshan, who was sitting next to Hawke, exclaimed.

"You look at Mr. Qin's eyes just now, the incredible, timid and surprising interpretation is superb, when can I be like this. ”

Well, Hawke really didn't see it.

However, he felt that Qin Tianyu, who was sitting in the front row of them, could hear it.

The comedy ends with the hero and heroine exchanging rings, and the crowd applauds reflexively.

"Can Sister Yu predict the box office?" After the end, the media who had a good relationship with Century was the first to ask.

"Our New Year's Day goal is 15 million, and we hope for the support of the audience at the final box office. ”

......

By the time the box office statistics of "Cherished Lovers" came out on the first day, Hawke was already in the red carpet waiting area of the Nanxiang Theater.

"Teacher Qin's audience appeal is really strong, and the box office on the first day is 8.5 million. He Feng sorted out a dress that was different from yesterday, and after continuing to hide the trademark, he whispered, "The cost of that play is only more than eight million." ”

The appeal of big stars is the stake, and with this kind of plot, if Qin Tianyu is gone, the box office on the first day is estimated to be less than six figures.

"I don't know how much Mr. Su will say today, after all, I heard that the cost of "Two Worlds" is not low, and I am afraid that it will have to be 30 million. ”

That's natural, and movie special effects involving mythological costumes have to burn a lot of money.

In order to maximize the movie-watching experience, the old Pearl Theater is not used, and can only go to Nanxiang.

If Qin Tianyu's premiere yesterday was a full power-saving mode, today's Su Yao's movie still has something to do with him.

The ending song "Cool Cool" was written by him.

It's a pity that the movie schedule has been delayed again and again, and when the final trailer came out, Su Yao hadn't asked Hawke to write a song, and when Su Yao told him that the ending song had been changed, the movie fans had long been out of enthusiasm, and the new version of the 35-second trailer didn't seem to have much splash.

Even well-informed people like He Feng didn't know that Hawke had contributed to the movie.

After walking the red carpet, taking a seat, and the starring speech then the movie starts.

After watching it for thirty minutes, Hawke felt that he had seen this plot before.

Isn't it the story template of the thousand-year-old fairy who fell in love for the first time under the instigation of her best friend, and after the incident, the mortal was executed, the fairy fell into the mortal world, and the two continued the story template of the previous relationship in the second life?

The special effects are good, but the editing is not very good, and a layman like Hawke can feel a hard injury.

Even Su Yao had a crying scene until the corners of her mouth rose slightly at the end - this is clearly a few frames after the director shouted to stop.

What a big mistake.

Qiao Wan, who was sitting next to Hawke, exclaimed.

"Look at Mr. Su's expression just now, the grief after the death of his lover, the inner collapse and the interpretation of a trace of relief after the mortal dust is about to be revealed, when can I be like this. ”

Su Yao, who was sitting in front, turned his head slightly to the economic man and said a few words.

Half a minute later, Qiao Wan was taken away.

When the ending song began to play at the end of the movie, all the newcomers except Hawke reflexively applauded, so that he couldn't even hear the song clearly.

It was yesterday that the reporter asked Su Yao the same question.

"There are only two days left during the New Year's holiday, and we hope to get everyone's support, and our ultimate goal is 60 million. The director said modestly.

The cost of 30 million is considered to be the expenditure of publicity, theaters, etc., and it is estimated that 60 million has just paid off.

New Year's Day is over, and the box office statistics are out.

"Cherished Lovers" is 16 million, ranking first this week;

"Two Worlds", Nine Million This Week's Third.

As a result, the format of various gossip news releases on January 4 was surprisingly consistent, either "Qin Tianyu defeated Su Yao" or "Qin Tianyu defeated Su Yao", and it was written in a different way, that is, those words.

Just when the media thought that Chen Reform had landed and entered the craze of praising Qin and stepping on Su, a strange thing happened.
