Chapter 121: The Premiere (Part I)
Coming out of the studio, Gu Wenwu breathed a long sigh of relief. What Wang Shicong said www.biquge.info is indeed right, Yang Lan is indeed very good at digging pits, and she is the kind that digs and buries it. Many of the questions she asked were not in accordance with the script, and she suddenly threw out a question, which seemed normal, but in fact, as long as Gu Wenwu answered according to the normal routine, it would be regarded as falling into the pit. For example, Yang Lan said that Gu Wenwu's first feature film had such good results, and asked him how he thought the new director could better capture the audience's eyes.
This question seems like a no-brainer, and it's easy to answer. But if Gu Wenwu answered, it would be fun. Because although Gu Wenwu is now a little famous, in front of those first-line super-first-line masters, it is just like that. What qualifications does he have to guide other directors in what to do, is he Zhang Yimou or Li case?
Fortunately, before Gu Wenwu came, Wang Shicong's reminder was prepared, and in the face of such a pit, he thought for a while before he smiled: "Sister Lan said that I was just lucky, what qualifications do I have to guide others?" ”
There are many similar pits, which makes the whole recording process Gu Wenwu seem relaxed on the outside, but he takes every question of Yang Lan seriously, for fear that he will accidentally fall into it.
finally finished recording "Interview with Yang Lan", Gu Wenwu finally relaxed. In fact, there were more than these programs, but Gu Wenwu discussed it with Wang Shicong and felt that soldiers were more expensive than fine, not more. For some programs with low ratings and small audiences, no matter how much you record, it is not as good as showing your face on a popular program. So in the end, it was decided to record only these four programs.
Of course, Gu Wenwu can't just ignore anything, there are a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the studio alone. As the release date of the film gradually approached, the studio also became busy, and many times it was too busy. Gu Wenwu was wondering if he should recruit some more people in, otherwise how to achieve his idea of being in charge.
With the July 1st National Day file approaching, all the movies that are ready to be released on July 1st are increasing their own publicity. Every time it comes to this time, there is always a large crowd, and this time is no exception. As the movies announced their schedules, Gu Wenwu also knew what kind of opponent he would face.
Needless to say, "Lust and Caution", directed by the Li case and starred by the actor, can be described as a big rival. In addition, there is also a Hollywood blockbuster "Spider-Man 2" and "Big Event" by Xiangjiang director Du Qifeng, which is also star-studded. As for other movies like "Devil Assassin", "May Love", "Self-Entertainment", "Miaowei Detective" and other movies put pressure on Gu Wenwu, it is not as great as the first two.
Time passed little by little, and finally, it was June 29th. That is, the day of the premiere of the movie "The Great Detective". At the time of "The Hangover", Gu Wenwu was just a rookie director who was not famous, and the three leading actors were only famous, if the premiere was done at that time, unless it was to spend money, it is estimated that few media would come, and they might even be ridiculed.
However, there is a good saying, it is called 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, and now it is different from the past. Is Gu Wenwu still the same as before?
In the Beizhan Theater, nearly 100 media are entering the theater. They were all invited to the premiere of "The Great Detective". In addition, there are nearly 30 film critics and a full 300 netizens. If you want to ask how these netizens came here, you have to credit Gu Wenwu.
The reason why "The Hangover" can be so successful is inseparable from the network marketing formulated by Gu Wenwu. Although "The Great Detective" has not yet been released, this set can still be used. In all major community forums, there is a pinned post. The content is to win free tickets to the premiere of "The Great Detective" with the poster.
The posters here include any poster of "The Hangover" and all the posters of "The Great Detective", a total of seven, with which you can redeem admission tickets at any theater under the Wanda Cinema Line. At first, Wang Shicong was a little unimpressed with the plan, he thought that with only 300 tickets, what could be accomplished. In fact, he didn't know that the most important point of network marketing is topicality. 300 tickets are just an introduction, relying on this introduction to let netizens spontaneously participate and understand, this is the ultimate goal.
As it turned out, Gu Wenwu's plan was successful. At first, some people didn't believe it, and the replies to the post were all such good things. But the post is officially pinned, and the credibility seems to be not small. So a netizen suspiciously took the poster to redeem the ticket, and then really changed it, and after he proudly posted the ticket he received, it immediately caused a craze.
You can participate in the premiere of the movie with a few posters, and according to the post, you can also see Cheng Daoming, Tang Xinghua and other first-line celebrities at the premiere, and you can watch the movie for free after the premiere, such a good thing, you must not miss it. However, the collection of posters is not so easy, especially the poster of "The Hangover", but the "Hangover" is not very famous when it is promoted, who will collect its posters specifically.
But the power of the people is great. Even if it is not easy, it is difficult to resist the enthusiasm of netizens. In just two days, 300 tickets were sold out. Three hundred lucky winners got tickets, and the film got a great promotion.
Among the 300 lucky winners, Zhang Wanchen and Zheng Zhijie are one of the few couples. When I was watching "The Hangover" before, the two of them laughed so much in the movie theater that their stomachs hurt, and they really loved this movie, so they collected a few movie posters, but I didn't expect to use them here.
"Brother Jie, I think we have to save a few movies of "The Great Detective" this time, in case this director releases a new movie in the future, won't we be able to watch the premiere for free again?" While waiting to enter the venue, Zhang Wanchen said.
When Zheng Zhijie heard this, he felt that it made sense, and said: "That's right, but this time we have to hide a few more, because next time we may need more than one poster from the previous movie." ”
The two discussed matters related to the collection of posters, and after the media reporters on the other side entered the venue, it was their turn. Under the patient guidance of the staff, 300 netizens entered and took their seats in an orderly manner.
"Wow, Brother Jie, there are so many reporters, it turns out that the premiere is like this." The premiere hasn't started yet, and the whole venue is still a little noisy. Zhang Wanchen looked around and found that in front of them were all reporters, some of whom were sitting on chairs quietly waiting for the premiere to begin, and some were talking in low voices with their peers next to them, as if discussing something.
"Actually, this premiere is the same as those press conferences, except that there are more stars at the premiere of the movie, and you can watch the movie after the premiere." Zheng Zhijie said.
"Brother Jie, look, someone is on stage, is the premiere about to start." As he was talking, suddenly a woman walked onto the stage with a microphone, and Zhang Wanchen hurriedly pulled Zheng Zhijie's arm and said.
