Chapter 111: Propaganda
In this way, the days passed quickly, and Kim Do-jun also recuperated alone at home for a while, relaxed for a while, and adjusted his mentality by the way, ready to meet the next challenges
On 21 October, Kim Do-joon, Han Sung-ho, and Lee Yong-chul took a plane from Gimpo Airport to Japan to prepare for the 20th Tokyo International Film Festival to be held tomorrow morning.
Kim Do-joon, as the starring actor of "Hot Blooded High School", must have attended all the promotional activities, and Leessang's agent Yong Cheolge also made a cameo role in the role of Hayashi Tianhui, so he also came with Kim Do-joon.
The company specially adjusted all the schedules for them to cooperate with director Miike's promotion of the new film, which is also a rare opportunity for Jungle Company, a hiphop company, to expand its own influence and participate in events like the Tokyo International Film Festival, which is still more important in comparison.
As for Kim Do-joon, he didn't care, he was a newcomer who had just debuted, but he was just lucky, and starred in a new work directed by Takashi Miike, if it weren't for the fancy of this ghost director, he wanted to make his debut as an actor, and he didn't know that it was the Year of the Monkey.
Fortunately, with such an audition opportunity, I felt that entering the entertainment industry is not just for singing, but also for many things, such as acting and making movies.
As soon as he got off the plane, Kim Do-jun went straight to the hotel booked by Director Miike, because he had just debuted, so his popularity was not very high, and there were no fans in the Japanese airport, and after getting off the plane, none of the fans came to pick him up, Kim Do-jun looked at the empty area outside, and suddenly felt a lot of loss, so he could only laugh at Han Sung-ho and say to himself.
"Brother Cheng Hao, my popularity is really low. Not even a single fan who came to pick up the airport! ”
Han Sung-ho patted Kim Do-joon's shoulder and said.
"It doesn't matter, not now, doesn't mean there won't be in the future, I believe after the release of this movie. Your popularity will explode! ”
Han Sung-ho believes in his own vision, and this movie will achieve good results.
There are both intense fight scenes, the direction of director Miike, plus Mr. Takahashi's original huge manga fans, and excellent supporting characters.
If none of the films succeeded. Get a good box office, then you can't talk about it at all.
"Then borrow Brother Chenghao's auspicious words, let's go, let's hurry to the hotel, Director Miike and they have arrived!"
Because tomorrow is the opening day of the Tokyo Film Festival, the actors of "Hot Blood High School" will walk the red carpet, such as director Takashi Miike, Kim Do-jun and Takayuki Yamada, they will also go over to attend the opening ceremony.
So I specially discussed and came over a day earlier, that is, from tomorrow. It officially kicked off the promotion of the new movie.
The best luxury hotels in the world are not in Europe, not in the Americas, but mostly in Asia, especially in Southeast Asia.
The hotel where Kim Do-joon stayed was one of the most luxurious hotels in Tokyo, Japan, specially arranged by the filmmaker-Four Seasons Hotel.
Four Seasons has always been a long-established luxury hotel, but this Four Seasons location is truly superb, located in the heart of Tokyo's Maru-ku business district, next to Tokyo Station and within walking distance of Ginza, with its sleek glass façade and a local fashion landmark.
The Four Seasons Hotel has only 57 rooms and suites, and Kim Do-joon is a large group of people. The filmmaker paid attention to arranging a suite and a guest room for them to facilitate their stay.
Even if you come to promote, you have to take care of thoughtfulness, such a busy schedule. You can also rest well, which reflects the dedication and professionalism of the Japanese people.
Despite its location in the heart of the city, the hotel's unique three-storey glass façade ensures a quiet and quiet environment.
It is said that this hotel is frequented by many famous Japanese personalities, such as Japanese football star Hidetoshi Nakata, for two reasons, the first of which is that the club music here is very good. The atmosphere is good, of course, there are a lot of beautiful supermodels, it is said that it was here that he met the female singer Daikoku Moji who later had an affair with him.
And Dahei Moji remarried someone else, and the wedding was also held here.
Back at the hotel, Kim Do-jun said hello to director Miike, Takayuki Yamada and others, and after chatting for a while, he went back to his room to rest, he had to recuperate, and he was going to be busy starting tomorrow, announcing that the itinerary had been sent to his hands, looking at the dense itinerary, Kim Do-jun suddenly missed the leisurely days a while ago.
"People, sometimes it's cheap!"
When I am not busy, I especially desire to be a little busy, a little full, once I am really busy, and I miss the previous leisure and comfortable days, people are like this, a complex mixture of contradictions.
On October 22, 2007, the 20th Tokyo International Film Festival was held in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. Because of the publicity, "Hot Blood High School" was selected as a special reception work, so Kim Do-joon also participated in the opening ceremony of this film festival.
As we all know, the Tokyo International Film Festival is one of the world's nine A-level film festivals and the only international film festival recognized by the world, which is sponsored by the Tokyo International Film Culture Promotion Association and the Tokyo International Film Festival Organizing Committee.
Since the first edition was held in 1985, this year marks the twentieth edition.
Held annually from late October to early November, the main purpose of the festival is to discover talented new talents in cinema and to celebrate the younger generation of directors.
In addition to the traditional film competition awards, the festival also features the "Asian Style" that introduces new trends in Asian culture, and introduces the new charm of Japanese films to audiences both inside and outside Japan.
This year's film festival held the "Chinese Film Week" for the first time, mainly to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan.
Several Chinese films, such as "Love Call Transfer", "Talented Men and Women", "Wounded City" and "The Ballad of Yunshui", will be screened at Film Week.
Because Kim Do-jun is a newcomer, he is not known by many people on the red carpet, on the contrary, his friends, Yabe Yusuke and Takaoka Soyu, who play Katagiri Ken, received more cheers, and the fans kept screaming, which made Kim Do-jun very embarrassed.
Because the way of admission is to queue up in turn to enter the venue, there are many actors in "Hot Blood High School", most of them are wearing black suits, which looks very formal, but no matter how you look at it, Yabe Yusuke has a gangster expression, and some people even hold up the sign of "Hot Blood High School" to follow behind.
At the end of the red carpet, everyone took a group photo together, and because of the starring role, they were specially pushed to the middle by everyone to enjoy the flashing lights of all photographers.
After everyone stood still, they couldn't hear what the host at the scene was talking about, but they could only see the photographer's flash flashing in front of him, and Kim Dojun's eyes were stinging, how many reporters did this have!
Even though his eyes were painful, Kim Do-joon had to take a pose, look at the other side with a smile, look at the reporter in front of him, and nod from time to time.
After the photo was taken, the next step was to enter the infield, and Kim Do-joon waited until the end of the award ceremony before returning to the hotel with his tired body. (To be continued.) )
