Dragon Tiger Films, in a small screening room.

On the screen, the ghost of the male protagonist played by Wang Zijun, accompanied by a beautiful melody, ascends to heaven under the light of holiness.

"Yay" Wang Zijun stood up and high-fived and cheered with the other main creators.

"Fantastic" Audrey, who rushed back from Rome to dub lines specifically for the movie. Hepburn praised that this was the first time she had seen "The Love of People and Ghosts" with complete lines and soundtrack.

"Thanks to your great performance." "Of course, thanks to Lazim, he found the perfect location for filming. And our great special effects artists, you guys are amazing. ”

After watching the movie, Wang Zijun was very satisfied with the special effects shots, although they could not compare the effects of the nineties, but they were able to achieve the extreme in the seventies.

"Oh, I didn't expect me to be so good at acting," Aida, a fat black woman, cheered, "I have decided, I will never be a damn psychic medium again, I will be a professional actor." ”

"Of course you can, you're fully capable." Wang Zijun said.

Quinton gave Wang Zijun a hug: "Thank you, director, this is the best role I have played since I graduated, although he is a big villain." ”

"Okay," Wang Zijun said happily, "Guys, I'm going to celebrate tonight." What do you want to eat? ”

"Los Angeles Barbecue"

"French Dinner"

"Japanese Cuisine"

“……”

Listening to the various answers, Wang Zijun was speechless for a while.

Not long after the group walked out of the screening room, Frank walked over with a grim face and whispered to Wang Zijun: "Wang, tell you bad news." ”

"What happened?" Wang Zijun asked.

"'Murder on the Orient Express' is ready to be released early, and the release date happens to be on the same day as our 'Ghost Love'." Frank said solemnly.

"What are they doing?" Wang Zijun said angrily.

The reason why the premiere of "Ghost Love" was not held, and the publicity offensive was not done enough, and it was hurriedly released, was to avoid "Murder on the Orient Express".

Don't avoid it, this British film is too big, its director is Lord Mountbatten's son-in-law, and the premiere in the UK some time ago even invited the Queen of England to be present in person, not only in the United Kingdom, but even in the United States, there are few people who love to watch movies who don't know.

In addition to the director's strength, this movie is adapted from the relatively popular detective mystery novel, and the novel itself has many fans. The scariest thing is its cast, like what Albert. Finney, Martin. Baussam, George. Kurulis, Ingrid. Bergman and so on, a whole bunch of old big stars or newcomers who are popular at the moment, almost all-star lineup. Among these actors, there are at least six or seven current or future Oscar winners.

For the name of the director, for the name of the original novel, for the name of such a large group of stars, who would dare to fight with it. After knowing the release time of the film in the United States, other companies' films took a detour for fear of hitting the mold.

What does "Ghost Love" rely on to attract audiences? By Wang Zijun and Audrey. Hepburn's scandal?

The actors in "Murder on the Orient Express" have several famous and Audrey. Hepburn is on par with a few Audrey. Hepburn's best friend.

"Hell, is anyone unhappy with us? Deliberately preceded the release of this movie to disgust us? Wang Zijun asked.

"I don't think so." Frank said, "Murder on the Orient Express has been in theaters in the UK for half a week, and the film has been a huge success. I think it's just a coincidence that the date has been changed in the United States. Coincidentally, it was dated exactly the same day as us. Let's just say that we are going back on our luck. ”

Wang Zijun breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't know whether he was comforting Frank or comforting himself, and said, "It's okay buddy, you have to believe in our movie." It is unprecedented in terms of special effects, subject matter and plot, and quality, and we will take out "Murder on the Orient Express". ”

Frank spread his hands, obviously not believing Wang Zijun's nonsense, and asked, "Why don't we postpone the release date?" There will be more time for promotion, and the premiere can be done. ”

"No, I have already announced the release time to the media, why postpone it, this is the day," Wang Zijun said with certainty. He could imagine what the media that were going to see his jokes would use to sneer at him if he postponed the date.

"What's going on?" Audrey. Hepburn saw Wang Zijun and Frank frowning, and couldn't help but come over and ask. ,

Frank said in a helpless tone, "Our movie and Murder on the Orient Express collided. ”

"Oh, that's terrible." Audrey. Hepburn said. Ingrid. Not to mention Bergman, "Murder on the Orient Express" starring Albert . Finney and Audrey. Hepburn collaborated on "Beauty Walk", Anthony. Perkins and Audrey. Hepburn has collaborated on "The Soul of Green Valley", but she knows them very well.

"It's okay, I believe we can beat that so-called big production," Wang Zijun said with a smile, "Let's think about what kind of dinner we should have tonight." ”

………………………………………………………………

Wang Zijun said it lightly, but in fact, he was worried in his heart. "The Love of People and Ghosts" was originally short-lived, and when it was released on the same day as the all-star blockbuster, the ghost knows what would happen.

Fortunately, Wang Zijun has confidence in this movie, even if he was pulled away by "Murder on the Orient Express" at the beginning, he can slowly turn over in the later stage.

It's just that there is more or less some influence.

Although "Murder on the Orient Express" has a strong lineup, it is just a commercial film in the final analysis, and "Ghost Love" is a classic that can still be remembered decades later

In the next few days, Wang Zijun finally felt the terrorist propaganda offensive of "Murder on the Orient Express", and a host of influential entertainment magazines such as "Look", "Esquire", "Cosmopolitan", "ModernScreen", "Life" and so on continued to publish reports related to "Murder on the Orient Express".

From the support of the British royal family behind the director, as well as the stories behind the stars of all sizes, and even what they wore in the film were taken out and discussed.

Wang Zijun's propaganda about "The Love of People and Ghosts" was squeezed into a secondary position, and even a word could not be found in some magazines.

Propaganda in the United States is much more difficult than in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and now there are only three television stations in Taiwan and only two in Hong Kong, and as long as they are willing to spend money and continuously broadcast advertisements on television, most people will know about it.

Available in the U.S....... There are more TV stations, and there are more entertainment activities that people pay attention to, rather than everyone squatting at home watching TV.

Fortunately, not all the media have forgotten Wang Zijun, and several newspapers and magazines found that Wang Zijun's "Ghost Love" and "Murder on the Orient Express" collided, and they all looked like they were watching a good show.

No one would think that "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" can or kill a bloody road. Maybe with Audrey. Hepburn's appeal, as well as the news that the Chinese kid made during this time, "People and Ghosts" can make a small profit, but if you want to achieve big success, don't even think about it.

The filming investment and publicity costs of "Ghost Love" are now almost 5 million US dollars, what can its final box office be? It is already rare for an average movie to be able to grossed tens of millions of dollars, and you don't see the first few "Godfather 2" The final box office is only more than 40 million. Hundreds of millions like Bruce Lee, hell, that no longer belongs to the category of human beings.

Steve, a well-known film critic for Entertainment Weekly, said: "Zachary. Wang's application of scheduling for movie scenes, I like it very much, and the sense of war and artillery fire in "Bloody Lonely City" once made me dumbfounded. I heard that this "Ghost Love" also uses a lot of stunt shots, and I'm looking forward to it. However, Wang's luck did not seem to be as good as he thought, and "Murder on the Orient Express" was released on the same day. I attended the UK premiere of "Orient Express", and I have to say that the commercial elements of this film are very well used, and with a large number of stars, it is surprising that it is not popular. I don't know if the express train from the East will be murdered by a British director on the other side of the ocean......"

The Hollywood Reporter article said: "If 'Ghost Love' is very good, 'Murder on the Orient Express' shouldn't have much of an impact on it." After all, one is a supernatural romance film, and the other is a detective reasoning film, which will not cause much collision. But if the quality of "Ghost Love" is mediocre, then the audience who has been nourished by "Murder on the Orient Express" will probably not buy it from us, the Chinese director. Again, an excellent movie is not afraid of any kind of crash. ”

In the overwhelming reports in "Murder on the Orient Express", Wang Zijun struggled to promote his new film, playing the slogan "The Most Touching Ghost Love in History", and took a group of main creative staff, including Audrey, to do busy work everywhere.

Emotionally, though, unless it's Audrey. Hepburn or Wang Zijun are loyal fans, or fans who don't like mystery films, in addition, people's first choice is to watch "Orient Express", and only when they come back do they ask people whether "Ghost Love" is good. ,

In order to achieve the publicity effect, Wang Zijun even broke the news in front of reporters: "I think that the North American box office of "Ghost Love" can surpass the murder case of "Orient Express". Hepburn and the abilities of all the creative staff. ”

As soon as these words broke out, they immediately attracted a burst of ridicule, and everyone waited to see Wang Zijun's jokes.

"Wang, what if you say this, what if you fail?" Frank Road.

Wang Zijun rolled his eyes: "If you fail, you will fail, and at most you will be ridiculed for a few words." Are there fewer people who laugh at me now? ”。

Wang Zijun's bold words or crazy words really had an effect, so that the name of "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" continued to appear in newspapers and magazines. However, the vast majority of those who say that Wang Zijun is not ashamed of his words.

That, today's Longkong is so lively, Lao Wang squatted there for a day.

The saber of death and the grudge against the end of the world.
