Chapter 462: Explanation
After the magazine "Film Talk" was promoted by Kong Qingqi, it was purchased by a large number of Chinese people in the United States.
At a time when books, newspapers and magazines are about to be replaced by the Internet, the sales of "Movie Talk" have risen dramatically in a single day, which has attracted the attention of many industry insiders.
Even the Movie Says was shocked by the sales figures that came from all over the world, and a day later, the American media were surprised to learn that the people who bought the magazine were mainly Chinese in the United States, and because of a dispute caused by one of the reporters about a Chinese film called "The Devil" at this year's French Film Festival.
The movie "Demon" can be regarded as an indirect increase in sales of "Movie Talk" magazine, which has entered the sight of foreign audiences.
This incident made people abroad pay attention to the huge consumer group in Huaxia, and while they were shocked by the purchasing power of this group of people, more people also noticed the reason why everyone bought magazines.
As in China, the movie "Demon" is frequently mentioned in the United States, and the Chinese director Zhao Rang is mentioned as one of the directors who is not inferior to Spacey.
Many media outlets also quoted such titles to attract the public's attention, and the discussion of "Demon" gradually increased.
At the French Film Festival, Zhao Rang did not miss such an opportunity, "Demon" is about to be released worldwide, this film has put a lot of effort into it, and he naturally hopes that "Demon" can make a more resounding reputation.
While participating in the film festival, he cooperated with major media to increase the promotion of "Demon".
Compared to the number of people who watched the movie on the day of the premiere, the theater of "Demon" is now full all the time, to the point where it needs to be booked in advance.
Jiang Se and Liu Ye are now in the hot stage, and the image of the two in the movie was exposed to the audience in advance through the stills of "Movie Talk" magazine.
In order to be more attached to the role, the two leading actors have lost weight, and the other has worked hard to gain weight, so that the image in the movie is unrecognizable, even if there is only one still exposed at present, but from this still, it has already reflected the degree of Jiang Se's dedication, not acting purely by beauty.
The more you know about "Demon" through the introduction of magazines, Shu Payne's comments, and the optimism of foreign media, the enthusiasm of domestic audiences for this movie is unprecedentedly high.
At the French Film Festival, many films that went to the film festival were out in the past few days, and Feng Nan was full of confidence when he first brought "Revenge" to the French Film Festival.
"Revenge" is a low-budget film, but because of Feng Nan's family background, background and her own identity as an actor, she is also a director, and she can also sign up for the French Film Festival, which makes many people in China quite optimistic about the prospects of this film.
Even Feng Nan himself has great hopes for "Revenge", and these above gimmicks indicate that the box office performance of "Revenge" may far exceed Feng Nan's expectations.
She did far better than Li Li, the original director of "Revenge", she adopted a better method in the investment and shooting of the film, and the investment in post-production was higher than that of the original "Revenge".
What's more, her own starring role should be better than the original heroine in the "Revenge" movie, she has the experience of giving birth to children, and she also understands the feeling of resentment, she thinks she can deduce the feeling of a mother in the play, but how do you know that "Revenge" finally won a chance to be screened at the French Film Festival, but there are few people watching the movie.
Feng Nan thought at the beginning that the gimmick of the movie did not work here.
In this world-class film festival, there are many more talented directors and screenwriters than her, and others make better films than her, even lower than the cost of her use.
Her film was eliminated in the first round and was never heard again.
Next, she was supposed to appear in a beautiful dress and make a name for herself in China.
However, the domestic competition between "Demon" and "Accident" is in full swing, Jiang Se and Liu Ye's efforts for the movie have been hyped, and even domestic people feel honored because Chinese stars and movies have appeared in foreign magazines.
Even if she dresses up in a fancy way, no one cares.
The reporter who had originally made an appointment to interview Jiang Se was actively trying to interview Jiang Se, this trip to France did not play its due role for Feng Nan at all, and her ambitious work did not choose a good time, but was caught in the battle between "Accidents" and "Demons", and quietly sank.
The film festival is coming to an end, and "Demon" has made it all the way to the finals, which is quite a dignified thing for Chinese films.
Jiang Se has been very busy recently, under Xia Chaoqun's arrangement, she accepts a large number of media and magazine interviews every day, although this is good for her popularity, but at the end of the day, when she returns to the hotel, she is almost too tired to move.
The dynamics of the movie are also known through Mo Anqi.
On the last day of the film festival, the remaining films have been selected by the judges and left over from the fine works, on this day, all the films left in the film festival will be released, and the audience who has not seen the movie can seize this opportunity to watch it first, and cast their own votes and their own scores for the film.
On this day, Xia Chaoqun did not arrange any more work for Jiang Se, because she received news that Cesare was invited by the film festival on this day and would attend the award ceremony as a special guest.
Although Cesare did not have any entries this year, he was famous and of high status, and the festival organizers invited him through many methods.
He scheduled his work and arrived at the film festival a day early, staying at a hotel that happened to be in the same hotel as Jiang Se.
After learning the news, Jiang Se took the initiative to send a message to Cesare, wanting to dine with Cesare, but the great director did not reply.
The two had a private relationship that day, because of a book "The Prisoner", the personal relationship was not bad, if it weren't for Tao Cen's interference, the friendship between Jiang Se and the big director should be deeper.
That year, when Cesare was going to shoot "The Lost City", he even recommended Jiang Se, specially went to the imperial capital, and even asked Jiang Se to have dinner.
But after the news was exposed, the two have never been in touch again.
After the news was sent, Cesare did not reply for a long time, Mo Anqi gritted her teeth with hatred for Tao Cen on the one hand, but also a little worried, she was afraid that Jiang Se would be hit by this, and she was afraid that Cesare's misunderstanding of Jiang Se would be deeper.
"Cersei, or in the news, you can explain what happened at that time. ”
Mo Anqi made a suggestion.
