Chapter 199: Implantation and Finishing
Lu Chong thought that Xu Jinglei would turn his face with him because of his rudeness, but he never expected that afterwards, Xu Jinglei behaved like a cat, looking at him with more gentle eyes than before.
At first, Lu Chong felt a little strange, but then thought about that life, Wang Shuo was very good to Xu Jinglei, introduced her to various opportunities, and paved the way for her to be the queen of literature and art with the power of one person, as a result, Xu Jinglei met young talents such as Sanbao and Zhang Yadong, and threw herself into the arms of others without hesitation.
Lu Chong didn't want to be the kind of fool who linked the things of the previous life with the things of this life, but the things of Xu Jinglei's night at the bar were always like a thorn, making him uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but think of that life.
He originally thought that if he wanted to have a relationship with a woman, the premise must be to love each other, like each other, it is a blend of spirit and flesh, like Zeng Li, Yu Feihong, Jia Jingwen, he is all in love, especially when they are pregnant for him, love multiplies, when he is with them, he can't think of other women, Zhang Ziyi, Liu Bei, he is also loving, except for guarding himself like jade, he is willing to do anything for them, but when it comes to Xu Jinglei, he really has no love, even a little love, he just wants to play with her.
"The First Close Contact" couldn't write when the ruffian Cai invited Qingwu Feiyang to watch "Titanic", after all, "Titanic" had not yet been released at this time, and it would not be released until October 1997 in Tokyo, Japan, and it would not be released until 1998 in the mainland.
Lu Chong tried it, changed to "Journey to the West", and found that the feeling had completely changed, and there was no choice but to suspend the update of "The First Close Contact".
"Love to the End" is still being filmed.
The plot progressed to the point of rage again, and Yang Zheng unknowingly became involved in the transaction of smuggling mobile phones...... Ruotong found out that Yang Zheng was involved in the smuggling case during the follow-up interview, and the TV report had a great response, Yang Zheng was arrested, and Ruotong was rated as one of the top ten reporters. Because of Yang Zheng's matter, Ruotong was hit hard.
In the later episodes, in fact, it is more of the role of Yang Zheng and Ruotong, that is, the role of Lu Chong and Zeng Li.
Fortunately, during the filming, Zeng Li was not pregnant, and she was pregnant after the finale, otherwise Lu Chong didn't know what to do, whether he would suddenly change the role.
Plot, after being released from prison, Yang Zheng tried to regain his strength, but it didn't go well, Yang Zheng moved out of Beibei's house, and had no choice but to live in Ruotong's place temporarily. Under the same roof, Yang Zheng, who still has resentment in his heart, and Ruotong, who has a bright surface and an empty heart, get along extremely nervously.
In his boring life, Yang Zheng became obsessed with e-mail, he met "Run" on the Internet, and became a good friend who talked about everything, and this e-mail used foxmail developed by Zhang Xiaolong, which was a disguised advertisement for foxmail.
Lu Chong refreshed his fame with "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle", many manufacturers know him and have a certain trust in him, Lu Chong took advantage of this, and then relied on his sister Qin Yanan's business relationship to attract a lot of sponsors, so that all the clothes worn by the characters in "Carry on Love to the End" were provided by Qin Yanan, and their food, clothing, housing and transportation were provided by various sponsors.
This is actually the prop placement in product placement.
Each character drives a Volkswagen car, and Volkswagen not only provides the car for free, but also gives 500,000 advertising placement fees.
The beer they drank was Yanjing Beer, and in addition to providing free wine, Yanjing Beer also gave 200,000 advertising placement fees.
In this way, all the places where brands can appear in the plot will find relevant brands to pull sponsorship, and each sponsor will provide products for free, in addition to this, more than 200,000 advertising sponsors will be provided.
More than 40 brands appeared in 20 episodes, and the advertising placement fees of more than 40 sponsors added up, nearly 10 million, and more than half of the shooting costs have been recovered.
Moreover, all the works under Lu Chong's own name also appeared in TV series, such as they all watched "Hui Ming", the movies they watched were "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" and "Love Malatang", and the songs they listened to were the nine inspirational songs in Lu Chong's "Stubborn", and the chorus was the ending song "Sing Me to You" in "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle".
It can be said that Lu Chong is the first TV drama producer to adopt product placement on a large scale without any scruples, and product placement originated from him.
He also told Feng Xiaogang about this trick, after all, Feng Xiaogang's previous "A Sigh" was invested by his company, and the sponsorship fee was also attributed to Huaxing Entertainment.
One of the brand sponsors is a European classic, Xu Fan's wife mentioned "European classic" many times on the phone, especially before the end of the film, Xu Fan said again on the phone, "Cross Anhui Bridge, turn left after Anhui Bridge, it is 'European Classic', the brand is very large, you can see it at a glance!" ”
In fact, as early as "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle", Lu Chong contacted a domestic bicycle brand and solicited sponsorship, but unfortunately he was not famous enough at that time, and the sponsor only gave 100,000 yuan in sponsorship in addition to providing 20 bicycles.
When Lu Chong's fame became more and more famous, the cost of product placement in the works he directed and starred in rose sharply, and later when he starred in a drag racing movie, many car dealers paid 10 million for product placement in addition to giving the car for nothing.
As the plot continued, Jia Wei helped Yang Zheng find a job as a driver who ran long distances to pull goods, but Yang Zheng was fired for delaying the time to pull goods. In order to find a stable job for Yang Zheng, Ruotong found Shang Jun. Just when Yang Zheng and Ruotong had feelings for each other, Jia Wei announced that Wen Hui was coming back. When Wen Hui suddenly appeared in Yang Zheng's sight, he didn't dare to recognize each other and hid. Yang Zheng told "Run" his feelings on E-mail. Wen Hui told Ruotong that she was engaged abroad and could not face Yang Zheng's relationship. Ruotong didn't dare to tell Yang Zheng the truth about Wenhui, pretended to be his birthday, and invited Yang Zheng to dinner...... On the E-mail, Yang Zheng told "Run" about his confusion, and "Run" implied the truth to Yang Zheng implicitly and euphemistically. Helplessly, Yang Zheng still didn't understand, Wen Hui finally told Yang Zheng the truth, but Yang Zheng was relieved. Yang Zheng could no longer find "running" on E-mail, and then Yang Zheng found that "running" had become an important fulcrum in his life. In order to help Su Lu raise money for the purchase of a house, Jiawei was found to have embezzled public funds and committed suicide in despair, in the process of rescuing Jiawei, everyone seemed to return to their college days, and Yang Zheng accidentally found that Ruotong was "running".
In fact, there are two main lines to carry out love in the end, one bright and one dark, the bright line is Yang Zheng and Wen Hui, the dark line is Yang Zheng and Ruotong, and it is Ruotong who really carries out love to the end.
This is also the reason why Lu Chong handed over the role of Ruotong to Zeng Li, because she was the first to fall in love with Lu Chong, and she was also the most selfless in love.
At the end of the performance, Zeng Li understood Lu Chong's hard work, why she didn't let her play Wenhui, but let her play Ruotong, who didn't have many roles in the front.
After finishing the work, Zhang Baibai and they spent half a month doing a good job in the later stage.
Lu Chong contacted Li Mai and showed the tape of "Love to the End" to the leaders of CCTV, which was praised by CCTV and broadcast on CCTV in prime time on June 1, 1997.
After eating the finale banquet and receiving the remuneration, the crew was disbanded, and everyone took a two-month long vacation.
After the Spring Festival, the main creative staff will gather in Pengcheng and start filming "Flower Season and Rainy Season".
Lu Chong was trying to give himself a good vacation and accompany Zeng Li and Yu Feihong well, Wang Xiaoshuai came to Pengcheng and told Lu Chong a good news: ""Seventeen-year-old bicycle" has been shortlisted for the Golden Horse Awards, and the shortlisted ones are the Best Feature Film, Best Director Award, Best Actor, and Best Cinematography Award, let's go to Treasure Island."
