June 26, Lumière International Studios

Du An was chatting with Li Qian, next to him were a series of creators of the crew of "Pretty Woman": producer Shu Yu, heroine Zhu Qian, and big partner Liu Peiqi...... They all sat separately, some of them were looking for someone to talk to, to relieve the tension in their hearts, and some of them closed their eyes to recuperate, showing a different coldness from usual.

This is the lounge of Lumière Studios, and "Pretty Woman" is finally scheduled to be released nationwide on July 2, and today is the premiere — something that Shu Yu insists on.

“…… Am there anything wrong with what I'm wearing today?"

Li Qian looked very nervous, and from time to time she looked around her whole body, afraid that there would be stains on her clothes, "This is the first time I have attended the premiere......

Du ane comforted her: "It's good, don't be nervous, it's just to show off on stage, and the audience below won't eat you." ”

Li Qian still couldn't help but be nervous, "What about multimedia!"

And multimedia?

Duane was noncommittal.

The movie "Pretty Woman" has always been not optimistic, especially at this moment, it has also hit a new star like "Peacock" and a heavyweight blockbuster like "Kung Fu", and it has completely stolen the limelight by these two films. Even if Pony Films does its best, the number of media that can come today is limited.

While the two were talking, the door opened, and a man walked in slowly with heavy steps, dressed brightly but dejected.

Duane looked over and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

The person who came in was Ning Hao.

Ning Hao slowly raised his lowered head, and saw that his hair was all combed up and shaped, and the already high hairline now looked higher, matching his face, it was particularly joyful. He had a pained expression, and his tone was loveless, "Director Du, I think Chen Yuxin must have an enmity with me...... his eyes were gloomy and desperate.

"Didn't I tell you, you're not handsome in the first place, do you have to go down the handsome road?"

Chen Yuxin walked in behind his buttocks, carrying a small makeup case, and patted Ning Hao disdainfully, "As soon as I make your whole image stand out, okay? ”

However, her theory obviously couldn't be accepted by Ning Hao - this guy kept staring at her. If eyes can kill, Chen Yuxin has already been sliced.

Ning Hao's arrival injected a burst of vitality into the lounge, and the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed. It didn't take long for the premiere to finally begin.

Hall 1 of Lumière International Studios is the largest, and DreamWorks has taken it over as the venue for the premiere. The group went in first and sat down, waiting for the media and spectators to enter.

Du ane sat in the middle of the first row, with Zhu Qian on the left hand side and Shu Yu on the right hand side. He looked at Zhu Qian, Zhu Qian noticed his gaze, turned his head sideways and gave him a smile, and then looked at Shu Yu - uh, Shu Yu didn't bird him, just stared at the screen, so Du Qian also looked at the screen, but he couldn't see that there was nothing to do on the pitch-black screen, there was nothing to see, but his thoughts flew back to more than half a year ago.

At that time, "Chainsaw" was released nationwide, and the first time he saw his film in the cinema was at the Lumière International Studios.

Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, most of the time has passed.

Zhu Qian was probably a little nervous, or bored, so she casually found a topic and asked Du An: "Director Du, your "Chainsaw" was also released here, right?"

"Hmm,"

Duane nodded, "But it's not this hall, it's not this point in time." ”

Zhu Qian was almost out of the original filming stage, and now nearly half a year has passed, and Du An can see that she has completely left behind the previous haze, which also allows him to communicate with her with peace of mind.

Zhu Qian said again: "Then this is still your blessed land, "Chainsaw" took off here, I hope this blessed land can play a role again this time." ”

Du ane smiled bitterly: Zhu Qian pinned her hopes on the unknowable so-called "blessed land", which shows how unconfident she is in this movie. And a heroine thinks so, I believe this is also the voice of the vast majority of the crew.

But don't talk about Zhu Qian, even himself, in fact, he doesn't have much confidence - a billion box office or something, he can brag very chic and natural when he brags, but it is extremely difficult to really do it. After all, the multi-faceted marketing of "Chainsaw" only pulled out a box office of 500 million, but there was still no heavyweight blockbuster, and the biggest opponent was only a "Can't Forget".

Now there are many opponents in "Pretty Woman", not to mention the sidelines, the much-anticipated "Kung Fu" alone is an insurmountable mountain.

But it's useless to think about it now, what you can do has been done, do your best, and know the destiny of heaven.

No matter how bad it is, there's always no problem in recovering the cost, right?

The media slowly entered the venue, and the audience came in one after another, and when the time was almost up, the host came to the stage, and after a verboscopic introduction, the creators were collectively invited to the stage and stood in a row.

After standing firmly on the stage and looking at the audience, Duane's heart was cold.

It was even worse than he expected.

There are only a little more than half of the 600 seats in Hall 1, and the number of long guns and short mirrors is not much, just five or six.

I've never heard that tickets for the premiere are difficult to grab, and you have to have a relationship to get them, and the tickets for the premiere of their "Pretty Woman" can't even be sold out, how miserable is this?

This is said to be the host invited from the Nanyang Education Channel, but he has the ability, he just watched it below for a long time, and he didn't see the slightest embarrassment from this guy's face. In the face of such a premiere that can be described as "deserted", this guy is still enthusiastic as if he is presiding over the Huabiao Awards, and he is also professional.

Du An listened with a smile as the host pulled Shu Yu to ask some rehearsed brain-dead questions, and at the same time thought in his heart: The publicity plan seems to have no effect, is it possible that the success can only rely on a little bit of fame accumulation and the audience's self-propagation to slowly pull up the box office?

“…… It's not easy. I heard that there were a lot of difficulties during the filming, and I believe that the audience must have been very interested in this, but I wonder if I can talk about it."

The host has shifted the target from Shu Yu to Zhu Qian. Facing the host's question, Zhu Qian smiled and said the rehearsed words: "Of course you can." Well, how to say it?...... Let's take the exterior of Hengdian as an example......"

According to the order of rehearsals, Duane, the director and star, was the last to talk, playing the role of a finale, so he is now very idle and has the time to think about his own affairs.

Just as he was thinking, the door of the hall suddenly opened through the incoming light, and the sudden light attracted Duane's attention.

Then he saw a woman with short hair and thin legs bending over and cautiously walking forward from the door of the hall, until she reached the third row and stopped, and opened her mouth to the people outside the third row, presumably to say sorry. Several people outside the third row shrank their bodies and legs in unison, so as to facilitate her passing, the woman smiled and opened her mouth again, probably to thank her, and then she was about to enter through the passage of guò, but she seemed to notice that someone was looking at her, and subconsciously looked left and right, and finally her eyes fixed on Duane on the stage, and the whole person stopped there, forgetting to go in.

Lightning thundered, and fire shone brightly

Duane looked at her, she looked at Duane, and the two of them looked like frozen sculptures.

Duane has a quirk: the more nervous he is, the faster his brain spins, and his brain is probably at the level of an electronic computer.

"Opportunity. ”

He didn't look back, and said the word to Shu Yu next to him in an almost inaudible voice, and then suddenly walked forward and walked out of the queue.

This sudden scene stunned everyone in Hall 1, the media, the audience, and even the main creators of the film all focused their attention, and the host was also stunned: Have you rehearsed this scene? What kind of play is this?

Duane walked to the edge of the stage with a steady and quick pace, jumped down sharply, and walked steadily in front of the woman with everyone's eyes in focus, the whole time without squinting.

Now the distance between him and the woman was about a meter, and the woman had stood up straight and looked at him quietly.

At this moment, the eyes of everyone in Hall 1 gathered here, and if there was a look and a temperature, the two of them would have been burned into a pile of fly ashes. The media, who have a keen sense of smell, are as excited as if they have been beaten with chicken blood, screaming in their hearts and raising their cameras one after another, crackling and snapping.

Duane smiled at her, "Can I get to know you?"

Because of the premiere, Duane was deliberately dressed up again today, and he has not deliberately pretended to be old, compared to the image of the diamond king in "Pretty Woman", the image of the fifth diamond king is a little less stable, and two more points of ease, which is a young version of Prince Charming's template.

is already good-looking, and there is such a romantic plot in life, the twenty-something female audience outside the third row has red eyes, and it seems that she can't wait to push the woman in front of Duane away and pounce on herself. And the gossip audience couldn't help it for a long time, some of them who were far away had already stood up, and some even stood on the chairs and stretched their necks to look here.

"Su Jin. ”

The woman in front of her spat out two words.

At the village bus stop, the daughter of the three fat men, Su Jin......

Duane's head was dizzy.

Life is really more bizarre than the movie.

"Can I treat you to a cup of coffee?"

Su Jin looked sideways: her friend was standing in his seat watching this at the moment, with a raging fire of gossip burning in his eyes, obviously not interested in rescuing her. Look around: everyone is watching them, and the flashes on the cameras of the media are flashing.

This movie is obviously unbearable.

Duane took her action as if she still wanted to watch a movie and didn't want to leave, so she simply said again: "This movie is nothing to watch." ”

This sentence injected 98% concentration of concentrated sulfuric acid into the already bloody blood of the media, and the whole thing boiled: the director and star of a movie slandered his own movie in public in order to chase girls, claiming that "this movie is nothing good"!

This is so explosive! Who has done it for decades!

Tomorrow's headlines are in place.

"Okay. ”

Su Jin could only agree.

She really can't stay here any longer.

Du An made a gesture of please, and then slowly left with Su Jin, walked to the door of the hall, opened the door, and the light poured in, and when he went out, he closed the door, and the light obscured him.

The eyes of the media, the audience, and the creators of the film are still obsessively focused on the hall door, as if the hall door will open in the next moment, and the two of them will come back.

But everybody knows that's not possible.

The Condor Heroes are extinct.
