When Lin Youlun saw Chen Hong at Wang Guxian's house, he always felt that she looked at her a little strangely.

"Did you say anything bad about me to her?" Lin Youlun blocked Wang Guxian at the door of the kitchen, and took a special look at the living room, "I always feel as if something is wrong." ”

Wang Guxian glanced at Lin Youlun, "Is telling the truth a bad word?" ”

Lin Youlun took an apple from Wang Guxian's washed fruit bowl, stuffed it into his mouth and bit a piece, "It depends on what the truth is." ”

Wang Guxian looked at Lin Youlun with bright eyes: "We met the paparazzi at the airport that day and almost found out, so I didn't dare to go shopping with her in the past two days...... By the way, she read a lot of gossip magazines I bought some time ago, and then learned about someone's deeds. ”

Lin Youlun shrugged, but he didn't show an angry expression as Wang Guxian imagined, originally Zhong Chuhong, Zhou Comian, Qiu Shuzhen, and Li Zhi had already exhausted him to deal with, but now there is another Li Jiaxin, and he has no intention of messing with flowers and grass in a short period of time.

Wang Guxian was very satisfied with Lin Youlun's performance, and picked a grape and stuffed it into his mouth as a reward.

The two walked into the living room talking and laughing, but Chen Hong hurriedly closed a magazine.

"Just read it, what's embarrassing, it's already a habit for someone to be in the newspaper anyway." Wang Guxian walked to Chen Hong and sat down, and brought the fruit plate to her, "Come, eat the fruit." ”

Lin Youlun sat down on the sofa opposite the two women. Coughed. Say, "There's something I want to talk to you both." The premieres of "Ancient and Modern Wars of the Qin Warriors" and "Mythology" will start at 7 o'clock tomorrow night, and I will send a car to pick you up at that time. ”

"Isn't it the premiere of both films put together?" Wang Guxian looked up and asked.

"When we appear in a group, we are together, but when we are interviewed by reporters, we have to be separated." Lin Youlun talked about the general process of the premiere, and looked at the two girls at the end, "Is there any more questions?" ”

Chen Hong opened his mouth a little embarrassed and said, "I...... What should I do if I don't understand Cantonese? ”

Lin Youlun had already thought of a way, "I will arrange a special translation assistant for you, and she will stand by your side when the time comes." She'll tell you what questions the reporter asked, and then you tell her what to say, and she'll answer it for you. ”

Wang Jixian helped Chen Hong with ideas and said: "Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome, just need her to tell you what the reporter asked, and then you answer directly, the reporters here in Hong Kong can understand Chinese, at the beginning I didn't speak Cantonese when I came to Hong Kong, I spoke Chinese with them." ”

Chen Hong glanced at Lin Youlun and asked with some uncertainty, "Is it okay like this?" ”

Lin Youlun nodded, and Chen Hong was relieved.

"There is a 5% discount on the ticket price for the purchase of two movie tickets. There is also a couple's package that gives popcorn and coke...... It seems that our "Family Carnival" has put a lot of pressure on Lin Youlun! Lin Jianyue looked at today's newspaper news proudly, and chatted with Huang Baiming in a relaxed tone.

"Family Carnival" was released for 3 days. The total box office is close to 6 million Hong Kong dollars, this result is so good that everyone expected, and Lin Jianyue is also in a good mood these days.

In contrast, Huang Baiming is more calm, he thinks that "Family Carnival" can have such a good box office, first, the appeal of Xu Guanwen's comedy is still there; Second, because this theme is very appropriate for the Spring Festival to be released...... As for the joint ticket purchase discount launched by the two films "Ancient and Modern Wars of the Qin Warriors" and "Mythology" mentioned by Lin Jianyue, in Huang Baiming's view, it is more of a marketing strategy for the theater, not that Lin Youlun is really afraid.

Since 1984's "Baby Wisdom and Stars", at least one-third of the ten highest-grossing films in Hong Kong every year are from Lin Youlun's name, and the annual box office champions for 4 consecutive years are all won by Lin Youlun's investment films.

Even Huang Baiming has a faint premonition that these two big-budget movies released during the Spring Festival may set off a new round of box office frenzy in Hong Kong...... Of course, he would not say these words in front of Lin Jianyue.

"The ticket prices for these two films are twice as high as ours, and it's hard for us to have much of an advantage at the total box office." Out of caution, Huang Baiming still reminded him.

"I know this." Lin Jianyue took out a box of cigars and put them in front of Huang Baiming, "Smoke one?" Authentic Cuban goods, very good taste. ”

Huang Baiming waved his hand, he didn't smoke.

Lin Jianyue clicked on himself, "The box office statistics of Jiayi Cinema Line, in addition to the total box office, there are also the number of moviegoers, after all, this is just a small-budget comedy, and there is definitely no way to compete with big-budget movies at the total box office, but in terms of the number of moviegoers, we still have a chance." ”

Huang Baiming also had such expectations in his heart, but he knew that things might not be as good as they thought.

——

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Lung Shing Cinema in Central.

A red carpet was rolled out at the door, a large number of reporters gathered on both sides, Wang Guxian and Chen Hong entered the venue in white and red, and murdered all the reporters in just a few minutes.

Wang Guxian only wore light makeup, and a white suit showed a completely different heroic spirit from the unexpected image, while Chen Hong was wearing a fiery red backless dress, the first time she wore such revealing clothes, she was very uncomfortable at first, especially when facing reporters, she looked very nervous, which showed a sharp contrast with Wang Guxian's indifference.

Walking into the theater, there were no reporters on both sides to take pictures, and Chen Hong breathed a sigh of relief. She gently covered her chest with her hand, and said with palpitations: "Is there often such a battle here in Hong Kong?" ”

"Today is still a small number of people, many reporters have already entered, if it is the red carpet of the awards ceremony, the scene is even more exaggerated than this." Wang Guxian explained to Chen Hong as he walked.

As they spoke, the two had already arrived at the venue, and a staff member came over to lead them to the front row to sit down.

There are a lot of celebrities who came to cheer today, but it's a pity that Chen Hong doesn't know her, and Wang Guxian can't introduce her one by one.

The premiere started on time, and after the opening song and dance performance, the main creators of the two films "Ancient and Modern Wars of the Qin Warriors" and "Mythology" appeared on stage together, and the shutter sound and flash clicked non-stop under the stage, Chen Hong quickly overcame her nervousness, followed Wang Guxian's example, tried to keep smiling, and occasionally tilted her head in a certain direction to facilitate reporters in that direction to take pictures.

A row of seats was arranged on the stage, and after the creators sat down, the host began to interview them, because they asked questions related to the film, so the focus of the questions was on Lin Youlun, Cheng Xiaodong, and Tang Jili.

"Judging from the synopsis alone, "Ancient and Modern Wars of the Qin Warriors" and "Mythology" are both stories related to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, how did Mr. Lin come up with the idea of filming these two movies at the same time?"

In fact, at the beginning, I read Li Bihuan's novel "Qin Warriors" and thought it was a very good story, and then I wanted to make it into a movie, but in the process of adapting the script, I also gave birth to the inspiration to write "Myth", "Ancient and Modern Wars of Qin Warriors" is more affectionate......, and "Myth" is more action-oriented, which is why I strongly recommend couples to watch these two movies. You can accompany your girlfriend to be moved by the love of the three lives and three lives in the story, and you can let your girlfriend accompany you to enjoy the exciting action blockbuster. ”

""Ancient and Modern Wars of the Qin Warriors" is a literary film, and "Mythology" is a commercial blockbuster, can it be understood in this way?"

"Before shooting, in fact, both films were prepared according to the idea of commercial films, but in terms of the style of the most popular films, it is indeed like you said, the most intuitive performance is the performance of these two films in the overseas market, "Ancient and Modern Wars of the Qin Warriors" performed very well at the European box office, and "Mythology" is very popular in the North American market."

"So which of these two movies has a higher overseas box office?"

"It's pretty much the same." Lin Youlun looked left and right at Cheng Xiaodong and Tang Jili who were sitting on both sides, "It's basically a tie." ”

"In other words, the Hong Kong market will be the key to victory?" The moderator then asked again.

"This question, in fact, you should ask Director Chen and Director Tang." Lin Youlun leaned back, clasped his hands and said: "The two of them should be regarded as not knowing each other, at the beginning they were full of strength to compete for a superiority, but they encountered a lot of difficulties when filming in the mainland, and the two crews eventually became one crew, and many people complained to me that they had to do two jobs for that salary...... But the results of this collaboration are remarkable, and now they meet me and talk about how the two films are, not how my films are. ”

"Actually, the two of us were forcibly twisted together by Mr. Lin." Cheng Xiaodong took the microphone and said, and his words were immediately agreed by Tang Jili, "At that time, I remember that Mr. Lin told me that your film must win awards in Europe, and then told Tang Jili that your movie must have as many box offices, and then both of us were under a lot of pressure, so we had no choice but to work together...... It wasn't until the film's overseas distribution came out that we were relieved that the goals that Mr. Lin set for us at that time have basically been achieved. (To be continued......)
