Chapter 017: Advertise Yourself

Some movies from wealthy families, those films with luxurious lineups, have been continuously promoted in various channels from filming to release, and they have been burned to ashes by various audiences as early as before the release.

But what many people don't know is that more movies shot by small directors and small companies are like a sea of mud and sand, and these works are generally unknown.

They don't have that much money to promote themselves, and they don't have so much money to get a starring role for themselves.

Therefore, every year, there are many films with a box office of tens of thousands or even thousands of dollars that are cut in half, and there is only a lost film scheduling rate, and the theaters that go online are also extremely limited.

Now, this is also the worry of everyone in the crew of "Giant Lord".

They have the same starting point as this kind of film.

But they don't want them to have the same ending.

They want to see a little reward for their efforts, and they want to let themselves nest in the ravine for a month of hard work can bring some comfort.

Therefore, propaganda is a must.

However, if it is like other films, it will be pushed in the official accounts of tens of millions of people, or ask big V to write advertorials on Weibo, or even buy hot searches, etc.

None of these paths are for them to take....

These promotion methods cost a lot of money, and it may cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to invite a big V to write an advertorial, and this number is really not outrageous at all.

Not to mention the promotion positions such as Weibo hot searches, if you really want to attract attention and have an effect, you can't get down without a seven-digit number.

Therefore, the only means of promotion they can think of is very simple.

Mobilize the crew insiders!

Mobilize all the crew members to do it yourself!

As for.... How to promote this yourself.

Very simple.

Starting the next day, director Zhou Ming had just returned home, and before he had time to rest for a day, after sending the film to edit and do post-production, he went directly to print piles of flyers, and Da Sun ran to the road to distribute flyers to passing battery cars and pedestrians.

How miserable do you think this has to be? How magical is it?

A director, holding a stack of flyers, is not promoting restaurants and Putian hospitals, but promoting his own films.

Including the rest of the crew, they were also requested by Zhou Ming.

Of course, there are no hard and fast rules, just a request from Zhou Ming.

But..... The hearts of this crew are very strong.

We don't have so many entanglements of various interest groups brought about by the intervention of the capitalists, and everyone's original intention is very pure.

It can be said that none of the crew of "Giant Owl" does not want this film to achieve results.

They have been working hard for so long.

Therefore, all the crew members went to the street to distribute flyers.

Including Wu Sin, the day after returning home, he and some crew members who were also in Shanghai held a large number of leaflets and distributed them in major roads and shopping malls.

Wu Sin also brought Pei Jianing.

Pei Jianing didn't say anything, and agreed without hesitation, so the two of them came to the mall to distribute leaflets with small schoolbags and leaflets.

You can imagine this kind of picture.

"Hello, take a look, this is a movie we filmed, and it will be released on the National Day soon, it is a story about anti-drugs, very positive."

"Hello, let's get to know the movie."

"Hello, this is the movie I starred in."

Every time they passed by, Wu Sin and Pei Jianing would hand over the flyer and make an introduction.

Although most people get it and throw it in the trash quickly, there are still a small number of people who are interested in keeping it and taking a look.

Although one of the ten of these people may not actually go to see it at that time.

But at the very least, such a method still has some effect.

That's how they advertise it.

In the next few days, Wu Sin and the others would start distributing leaflets at regular intervals.

Of course, there is another way to promote it.....

Send all kinds of small online advertisements and promote them yourself.

Wu Sin logged in to all his social accounts, including but not limited to Weibo, Tieba, Xiaohongshu, various communities, Station B, Doukuai, as well as Moments and QQ space.

There are even various group chats.

For example, group chats such as "blind date and love family", and "classmates".

For example, now, Wu Sin has just posted a small advertisement to his college classmates.

Management Class 4 - Wu Sin: "Friends, I participated in the filming of the starring movie "Giant Lord", which has been officially completed, originally scheduled to be released simultaneously in major theaters on October 1 this year, the National Day file, this movie tells the story of the anti-drug frontline, extremely positive energy, and can also popularize various anti-drug knowledge, which is very suitable for a family to watch, if you are interested, you will also be troubled to support a wave, for which I feel sincerely grateful. ”

Management Class 4 - Wu Sin: "Also, I will give movie tickets to all students who are interested in watching it." ”

As the starring actor, Wu Sin will definitely get some tickets.

So, after all, they are all classmates, and if these people and Wu Sin's family and friends want to go to see it, Wu Sin can give them tickets.

Soon, there was a reaction in the group of classmates.

Management Class 4 - Liao Jun: "Wow, Wu Sin went to make a movie??" Is it so awesome? , I'm going to have a star in my classmates? Definitely go and see! ”

Management Class 4 - Huang Jianqi: "???? I'm super, awesome!! ”

Management Class 4 - Yang Xueqi: "Huh? You're going to make a movie, huh? When the time comes, I'll take my boyfriend to see the acting skills of my old classmates, but I'll invite all of us to dinner! ”

.....

Most of the students are still very face-saving.

After all, after so many years, Wu Sin has never offended anyone, and he is very easy to talk on weekdays, although except for a few roommates, no other classmates have a particularly good relationship with him, but everyone still maintains a very harmonious relationship.

Therefore, Wu Sin's propaganda really has an effect.

While some students were shocked and unexpected, they also said that they would definitely go to the show.

But reality will always be on the way things go well, and you will have some surprises.

For example, now, there is a person who Wu Sin is very disgusted with.

Management Class 4 - Lin Yi: "Yo, the big star is finished?" The adaptation of "Rural Sow Care Manual" has been filmed? Why did the big star delete me? Is this a flying yellow and forgetting your old classmates? ”

Wu Sin didn't plan to put up with him this time, after all, people's patience has a limit.

Management Class 4 - Wu Sin: "Lin Yi, it's almost there, if belittling others can elevate yourself, or make you feel a sense of accomplishment, then you better find something to do." ”

Management Class 4 - Lin Yi: "Why are you still in a hurry to make two jokes?" Can't afford to joke? Isn't this also for the sake of good, young people, have dreams, it's a good thing to love dreaming, but it's not good to be ambitious, you still have to be honest, you have to be honest every day, and you don't have to do these things every day, just your so-called movie, I haven't heard of it, and you're still making movies in the mountains? Who believes? What kind of movie can live so badly? Are you bluffing children? It's not that I don't believe you, it's that you really didn't have a brain before pretending to be forced, and you still like Xiaoxue, and I feel ashamed of Xiaoxue. ”

The group that was still very lively just now was quiet in an instant, and no one came out to get involved in this matter.

Soon, however, the silence was interrupted.

(I don't know if you've ever encountered this kind of person in reality.) )
