Chapter 174: Golden Horse Best Actress Nomination
"Boss Xu, in fact, more than 20 people have already negotiated this movie, and we are just waiting for the release of the schedule." Chen Jiayao said with a smile.
Xu Quanfa and the three of them glanced at each other, there were more than 20 of them, which was indeed considered a grade, so they were even more dispensable.
"This ......"
Chen Jiayao smiled: "So I'm sorry. ”
Xu Quanfa knew that things were not as smooth as they imagined, but since he was here and could see Chen Jiayao in person, he still wanted to make some efforts.
"Miss Chen doesn't think about it, although our movie theater is small, we will definitely strictly abide by the rules, and one more will increase the box office ......"
Xu Quanfa made a guarantee that of course he would not joke about this movie that could be used as a turnaround, and he would never buy tickets indiscriminately or steal the box office.
Chen Jiayao asked: "Boss Xu gave up such a big benefit, what are your plans for the future?" ”
Cutting shares, twenty-eight shares, this is impossible for a theater chain.
If Xu Quanfa has ambitions and a well-thought-out plan, he can continue to talk.
Xu Quanfa looked at the two bosses who came forward, to be honest, he also initiated it this time, after all, it is not impossible for the three to develop together and establish a cinema line.
Looking at Chen Jiayao's actions in the past two years, they know that Chen Jiayao is not a simple artist, and there is no lack of scheming or even courage, and at this point, if you don't come up with some chips, this opportunity will disappear completely.
"Miss Chen, we are very confident in Miss Chen's films, and we hope to have a long-term cooperation with Chen Jiayao. Miss Chen has the support of the cinema, so it will be much easier to produce independently in the future, and it will be convenient for Shaw Brothers to advance and retreat. ”
"Boss Xu, if you let the Shaw family know this, you will have a lot of trouble." Chen Jiayao said with a smile.
This is a poaching in disguise.
Xu Quanfa was not afraid when he heard Chen Jiayao say this, because it made Chen Jiayao even more ambitious.
"I'm from Shaw Brothers anyway, and I don't have the heart to break away from him, not to mention that your movie theater is not a theater chain, and it's even more impossible over there."
"Miss Chen, the two owners of Golden Harvest only had one movie theater at the beginning. But now it has also grown to suppress the Shaw Brothers' large cinema chain company. According to the current situation of the movie. Miss Chen, your box office appeal is not less than that of Li Xiaolong, as long as you let go of your hands, why not achieve a win-win situation? ”
Chen Jiayao lowered her eyes and said lightly: "Boss Xu thinks highly of me." I may have disappointed you. I'm not prepared to reach a win-win situation with you. ”
"Miss Chen. Don't you remember how Ho Guangchang left Shaw Brothers? ”
Chen Jiayao said: "Shaw Brothers does not want Boss He to produce independently. ”
"Yes, although the success of Golden Harvest Li Xiaolong is a factor, it is more about Golden Harvest's production system. Because Jiahe is tolerant of all rivers, accepts independent production, and obtains countless film sources, it has slowly developed. And Shaw Brothers is not allowed to produce independently, although after the lessons of Golden Harvest, the conditions have now been relaxed, but they are still suppressed. ”
Chen Jiayao stared at this Xu Quanfa, is this person really a person with insight, or a talent sent by another force, or a temptation of the Shaw Brothers?
Look at his age, if he had such courage, he would not be just the owner of a small movie theater now. Unless, he didn't do it before, or maybe someone instructed him.
Xu Quanfa didn't notice that Chen Jiayao was suspicious of him, and still gushed endlessly: "Miss Chen, you have created such a big profit for the Shaw Brothers, and when you were producing independently, the Shaw Brothers only gave you five movie theaters, which is not even in line with the system of movie release. Miss Chan doesn't think about a way out, unless you don't want to make an independent film anymore? ”
Chen Jiayao smiled: "That's not necessarily, the Shaw Brothers are changing day by day, and no one can predict what will happen in the future." I'm quite satisfied with the status quo and don't have any other thoughts. ”
Xu Quanfa didn't believe it, but he couldn't point it out directly.
If it weren't for the doubts, Chen Jiayao would really be able to continue talking.
"Boss Xu, let's do it, I won't ask you to run for nothing, there should be more than 20 days before the release, if your movie theater has a new image within these 20 days, you can consider giving this movie to you for reflection."
"A new image?"
Chen Jiayao nodded: "Your cinema is too small, so this new image does not require a cinema chain, but it should make people feel comfortable in appearance and service, and the picture and sound reflected can no longer be outdated equipment, with a regular cinema as the standard configuration, in addition, a more standardized ticketing system should also be had." ”
The three of them thought about it, so that the image will be re-changed, it is bound to close for more than 20 days, and some old audiences will be offended, after all, it will cost a lot of money to rectify it in this way, since they are determined to rectify, then after the painting of "Autumn Fairy Tale", they will not be able to continue the previous days, in this way, the ticket price is bound to rise, and the small number of fixed audiences who used to rely on vulgar films will no longer be able to retain.
This is actually very risky, after all, they can't guarantee that "Autumn Fairy Tale" will be a big hit, let alone that "Autumn Fairy Tale" will be released after a good film. If they don't achieve their goals, they will be in debt.
At this point, there is nothing to talk about, because Chen Jiayao's mind has been decided.
After the three left, Chen Jiayao called Ma Hu.
"Check to see if the bosses of these three houses are these three people, and keep an eye on whether they are in contact with strange people."
Ma Hu nodded.
Since being hired by Chen Jiayao, they have begun to take root in Xiangjiang.
They know very well how to find someone to watch.
Chen Jiayao continued to return to work, although Shaw Brothers suppressed her in theaters, but they no longer continued to smash the scene, did not let go of the words to let other movie theaters say no to her, and did not create any difficulties for her publicity plan.
Otherwise, Chen Jiayao's movie will be difficult to release.
This is also one of the reasons why Chen Jiayao is reluctant to tear up her face with Shaw Brothers.
Chen Baiqiang finished recording "Farewell Autumn", and after Chen Jiayao heard it once, a smile appeared on his face.
The radio station was contacted unimpeded, and even Xiangjiang Radio 5 charged according to the standard, so they began to broadcast the song to the TV station as publicity.
The theme song of "Autumn Fairy Tale" was exposed, and the MV screened on the TV station was not only sung by Chen Baiqiang, but also edited some movie trailers.
This is the publicity before the release has not yet been confirmed.
By the time of the second wave of publicity, the release date had been set, just on November 21.
In the second wave of propaganda, the newspapers reported a lot, and the TV station also broadcast the news in the newsroom, and of course, Chen Jiayao would also post propaganda posters all over the territory of Xiangjiang.
In addition, the classic song of the duet between men and women, the intimate lover, also began to resound all over Xiangjiang.
If "Farewell to Autumn" makes many young men and women look forward to it, "Knowing Lovers" also attracts many middle-aged people with social experience.
It is not difficult to know the melody of your lover, but the words are warm, easy to understand and pleasant, it is easy for people to recall their lovers, learn to cherish and remember.
As Chen Jiayao expected, "Intimate Lover" was immediately sought after by Xiangjiang audiences as soon as it was broadcast.
Before the single was recorded and sold, some viewers blocked the door of Huaxing Records to ask for it.
Who is called Chen Jiayao and Zhang Guorong are both singers under Huaxing?
The world of fans is very simple, because of the spread of songs, movies are also known to everyone.
When Chen Jiayao was about to enter the third wave of publicity, good news came from Taiwan.
"Autumn Fairy Tale" was shortlisted for six awards: Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Original Film Music.
With six awards, four of which are heavyweights, as soon as the news was issued, "Autumn Fairy Tale" sparked a craze among audiences before it was released, becoming the most anticipated film in the last month of the year.
In addition, Chen Jiayao also had a happy event.
Chen Jiayao's "Men and Women" filmed in the spring was also shortlisted for six Golden Horse Awards: Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Sound Recording and Best Original Film Music.
One person was nominated for Best Actress with two films, which is enough to leave an important mark on Chen Jiayao's resume at the Golden Horse Awards. After all, there are only four nominations for Best Actress at the Golden Horse Awards this time, and Chen Jiayao alone occupies two, which shows the glory.
The nominations were announced relatively late, with only a week to go before the awards ceremony.
Chen Jiayao once again became the darling of the media, and although she tried her best to avoid it, she was forced to come out for interviews twice.
At the same time, Li Tiansheng got Chen Jiayao's consent and announced the filming plan of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", with the heroine of "Autumn Fairy Tale" and the male No. 2 Lu Songxian serving as the male and female protagonists of "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
For a while, Chen Jiayao had no impact, but Lu Songxian became popular overnight.
However, Chen Jiayao and Li Tiansheng insisted that Lu Songxian appeared in front of the public too often, after all, Lu Songxian did not have important works, and if he appeared frequently, his image would be ruined.
However, this publicity, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is extremely hot, and the publicity effect is no worse than that of the rest of Jin Yong's masterpieces.
Even, it faintly suppressed the propaganda of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer".
You must know that when October was low this year, wireless started the first Taiwan celebration, and the finale "Deer and Ding Ji" was broadcast as a Taiwan celebration drama, with hard publicity, extremely high ratings of prime time, plus "Lu Ding Ji" is well-made, there are many beautiful beauties, and "Lu Ding Ji" is popular and purple during this time.
Liang Chaowei and Zhou Xiulan and others are also the targets of the media, and the TV station took the opportunity to announce that the two will start filming "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" next spring, which has a hot trend before the start of filming of "The Condor Heroes".
When the filming of "The Condor Heroes" started, Chen Jiayao used the "Mythology" movie and Mr. Jin Yong's praise, which can be said to be infinitely beautiful.
Today's Liang Chaowei and Zhou Xiulan have been infinitely packaged, and they have caught up with Chen Jiayao at the beginning.
It's just that not long after the firepower of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" broke out, it was covered by "Smiling Proud Jianghu". (To be continued......)
