On the evening of August 24th, Lu Ping'an landed in Xiangjiang, and this time in Xiangjiang, in addition to personally inviting Guorong, accepting interviews with Hong Kong media is the main task.

Eagle Emperor has a share in the "Source Code", and will undertake the distribution of accounts in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, Wanwan and other places in the future.

They originally attached great importance to this, but they paid more attention to it after the film came out a few days ago, and a series of publicity plans have been made.

"Source Code" will be the same as "The Legend of Tianmai", which is still being released, and will be released simultaneously in the mainland, Xiangjiang and other places.

In fact, they do this, and the movie itself is only one of the reasons, and the "mainland" factor accounts for a large part.

Next year, Hong Kong and the Mainland will sign the Mainland and Hong Kong Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA), which will be recognized as a turning point for Hong Kong films.

At present, the attitude of those familiar with the matter is also highly optimistic.

After all, after Xiangjiang films enter the mainland, they will enjoy the treatment of domestic films.

This is a huge positive.

The Eagle Emperor will naturally seize the opportunity, and they are one of the representatives of Hong Kong who contributed to this result.

In the future, they will get involved in mainland theaters, not to mention movies.

Therefore, "Source Code" is borrowing this shareholder style, and in the future, like "Hero", it will enjoy more film scheduling and publicity treatment in Xiangjiang.

This is the result of the combined effect of the current situation and Lu Ping'an's personal signboard.

In addition, "The Tuner" Xiangjiang has a good box office performance, and Lu Ping'an also has some local fans, but he has never appeared in Xiangjiang, so an interview becomes necessary.

Before the interview, Lu Ping'an first went to Guorong's house for dinner.

Guorong knew that Lu Ping'an was coming, so he came to pick up the plane in person.

When they met, the two were very happy like friends for many years.

"Brother, lose weight!"

"What's the matter, I've been eating a lot lately."

The two joked with each other and got into the car.

Along the way, Guorong shared about the new album.

Lu Ping'an also shared his film in Hollywood.

Guorong's state looks very good, and the atmosphere is very pleasant, but when the car is about to arrive at Guorong's home, unhappy things come.

The car was about to arrive at the villa area where Guorong was located, and as soon as it appeared, Lu Ping'an saw seven or eight paparazzi clicking on the car window.

A few of them were asking aloud in Cantonese.

Lu Ping'an couldn't understand, and the faces of the rest of the people in the car who understood suddenly became ugly.

Just now he was still a normal person, very sunny, very cheerful, and can joke about Guorong.

At this time, his brows were furrowed, and he looked in a bad mood.

However, he still comforted Lu Ping'an: "It's okay, they are just here to operate, and they won't go in." ”

Sure enough, after the car entered the villa area, the paparazzi all stopped, just stood there with the camera and continued to shoot.

Lu Ping'an was puzzled: "What did they just say?" ”

"Ignore them."

Guorong waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.

Obviously, these people are asking some questions that have no lower limit.

Still, he asked, "Tell me, I can hear a few people asking me, and I want to know what they are going to ask me." ”

Guorong smiled: "You will feel bad after you know." ”

"I'm mentally strong, say."

Guorong sighed and said, "They asked if you were my new boyfriend. ”

“。。。”

The corners of Lu Ping'an's mouth twitched, and he almost scolded his mother.

Sure enough, there is no lower limit for TM!

Now he has a deep understanding of the situation of Guorong.

Homosexuality is taboo in this era, and Guorong openly admits to having same-sex partners, and is tough with the media, which is indeed easy to be set on fire.

But this kind of fire, which has continued since 97, seems very abnormal.

Lu Ping'an feels that these media are not just to create topics.

Interest is one thing, and industry competition is also one thing.

Guorong is currently a super first-line, and it is easy to become a target.

And the most important thing is that he doesn't have a strong backstage.

This is actually very similar to Xing Ye, before Han Sanpin pulled him, everyone in the Xiangjiang industry was squeezing him out.

The difference is that Guorong has a good relationship with his peers and has a lot of friends, while Xing Ye has almost few friends except for fans.

If Guorong doesn't come out, he will still be a dashing "brother", but unfortunately, Guorong himself has exposed his biggest weakness.

In addition, in recent years, Guorong's achievements in all aspects have not been particularly good.

Therefore, it is difficult to say that what happened to Guorong was determined by a single factor.

But one thing is for sure, staying away from this smoky miasma early on is indeed very helpful for Guorong.

The car arrived at the place, got out of the car and entered the house, and Guorong's partner Tang Hede was also there.

After a brief chat, after getting to know each other, Lu Ping'an asked, "Those paparazzi outside will squat like that every day?" ”

Guorong's agent Chen Shufen nodded and replied: "Yes, it's been many years." ”

"It's all like this, and you won't change places?"

"You can find it anywhere."

Chen Shufen's face was full of helplessness.

Also, the Xiangjiang River is so big, where can Guorong hide.

Lu Ping'an stopped talking, and found an empty man who was empty and Guorong suggested: "Brother, I'm already arranging it over there in Bashu, you can come after a few days." ”

As early as after he Guorong proposed "recuperation", Lu Ping'an asked Xiang Guoqiang to contact the Bashu Panda Base, and then select the surrounding site, decorate, build a computer room, and purchase equipment.

At present, it is still in the decoration stage, and you can start to purchase equipment in about a month, and the equipment needed for animation will not be very expensive, but it will not be cheap, plus the rendering machine room, you will have to spend at least 2 million in advance.

If you add the follow-up production costs, this will probably be a bottomless pit, and a "Kung Fu Panda" made from scratch may not be able to be done without tens of millions.

Guorong sighed slightly after hearing this: "I want to go too, but I'm busy here." ”

"Is life or money important?"

Lu Ping'an asked directly.

The two are friends, and they know the inside situation, so they have to say some things naturally.

"Depression is not incurable, it depends on whether you are worthy of cooperation or not, in such an environment, it is strange that you can cure the disease!"

Lu Ping'an said, and said, "I think what the paparazzi said just now will only be more ugly, I don't understand it, it's okay, the key is that you can't pretend not to understand, you can stand it once or twice, but after all these years, you can really stand it?" I don't think so, right? ”

Guorong was a little silent when he said this.

Lu Ping'an continued: "Your doctor has said, be happy, I will definitely not be happy if this situation is changed to me anyway, change places, brother." ”

"Thanks, I'll think about it."

Guorong sincerely thanks.

Lu Ping'an didn't say anything anymore.

This kind of thing, it is enough to do what should be said and done, and what the result is, he has already prepared for the worst.

Even if Guorong doesn't come to Bashu, "Kung Fu Panda" will be produced there, after all, framing, collecting dynamics and the like also need to be carried out on the spot, this film will have to be done for many years, and the preliminary work will have to stay there for a long time.

Then a feast was held, and there was a simple meal, drink, talk and laugh.

During this time, everyone at the dinner table talked about "Source Code".

There are still a lot of optimistic about the Xiangjiang media, after all, Lu Ping'an is a genius director, and Guorong is not hacked by all the media, the media that really hacks him are actually those, but the voice is loud and excessive, and the rest are not squeaky.

When it comes to movies and songs, Guorong's professional skills are actually very recognized.

But there are also murmurs, it's still the same, the blockbuster that was filmed so quickly was questioned, plus Chinese science fiction, and it was made in the mainland, I am not optimistic, and the types of films that Guorong has received in recent years are very different, and "Source Code" may be the same, etc., these doubts add up to a lot.

Lu Ping'an is nothing, he is still full of confidence, but without waiting for him to speak, Guorong comforted him first: "Ping'an, don't be under pressure, we will definitely succeed." ”

Lu Ping'an's first reaction after hearing it was not about the movie, but that Guorong was really gentle and too good at thinking about others.

"Brother, don't worry, I like to question, if it's too smooth, I still think it's boring!"

Lu Ping'an looked confident.

The more voices there are, the hotter the topic becomes, and this is the pre-publicity.

If you are optimistic, it is like "Hero", but it is not beautiful.

The expectations are too high, and there will be more doubts later, who likes that.

It is estimated that Lao Mouzi is under a lot more pressure than him now.

"With such confidence, it seems that I must be very handsome in the movie."

Guorong laughed and joked after hearing this.

"Of course, you'll be back on top this time!"

"I hope so."

The two smiled, clinking glasses of juice.

After dinner, the two and their agents set off for the Eagle Emperor for an interview.

Out of the villa area, the paparazzi gathered around and clicked again, and at the same time asked loudly through the car window.

Lu Ping'an didn't understand, but he also replied: "Bad pen!" ”

provoked Guorong to laugh.

Chen Shufen sighed in the passenger seat: "My brother seems to be smiling happily when he is with you." ”

Lu Ping'an also smiled after hearing this: "So I suggest that my brother should think about it more." ”

Guorong nodded, "I'll think about it, really." ”

"Then let's talk about it, I'll go after the movie is released."

"Okay."

。。。。。。。

"Hello friends of Xiangjiang, I am Lu Ping'an..."

In front of the camera, Lu Ping'an waved hello.

Now he and Guorong are interviewed by the media under the banner of Eagle Emperor.

It's a very simple interview, say hello to the fans of "The Tuner", tell some interesting facts about the movie, tell your own story, let yourself show your face in Xiangjiang, and then pave the way for "Source Code" in advance.

"The current post-production work of "Source Code" has been completed, and a viewing party will be held in a few days, and it is expected to be released on National Day, are you confident? Of course, I can already imagine the surprised faces of the audience..."

"Some people questioned that the production was too fast? Such a question is very reasonable, but rest assured, you will never be disappointed after the film comes out, and if you say that you will have no urine point throughout the whole process, then you will do it! ”

"How does it feel to work with Guorong? It's very comfortable, Guorong is a very strong actor, you know, sometimes on the set, in addition to the director, the actor's individual performance is also very important..."

After talking about the project, it is natural to mention Xiangjiang Movie.

"My favorite Hong Kong movie? There are so many of them, kung fu movies, ghost movies, drama films, etc., these are all things that I have seen since I was a child, and they are also what prompted me to enter the film industry, and they also gave me a lot of inspiration in my later creations..."

"Favorite actor? Of course, it's national glory! ”

Guorong, who was interviewed on the side, also laughed, and said: "Don't worry about me, just when I don't exist, just say it, hahaha..."

After more than an hour, the interview ended, and Lu Ping'an accepted the banquet of Boss Yang of Eagle Emperor.

Boss Yang already knows that the quality of "Source Code" is super high, and the future prospects of the film are excellent.

So coming forward to eat together in person is an attitude.

The meal was not bad, and after the end, Lu Ping'an was arranged for the next one.

It's just that Lu Ping'an still chose to take a car to tour Xiangjiang at night.

It's the first time in two lives, and it's not too late to talk about it after drinking and picking up girls.

Of course, the main thing is that the national glory is also there, and the filter of a righteous gentleman and a good child cannot be broken.

The Xiangjiang River at night is indeed prosperous, modern and crowded, and it is full of fireworks in the eyes of Lu Ping'an.

The pyrotechnics he said meant that the scene in front of him was similar to that in classic Hong Kong films.

As for the later ones, forget it, the filter is broken.

Along the way, Huo Wenxi introduced the theater chain under the Eagle Emperor and talked about the plan for the future release of the movie.

After an introduction, Huo Wenxi asked, ""

"Road guide, do you have any ideas to develop in Xiangjiang?"

There is probably a deep meaning in these words, but Lu Ping'an is not uncommon to think about it.

He just replied, "You can try it if you have a chance." ”

"If you have an idea, you can communicate at any time."

"Okay."

That's the end of the conversation.

After a two-hour night tour of the Xiangjiang River, the wind blew on Victoria Beach, and then Huo Wenxi arranged the next one.

"Lu Dao, do you want to have some wine?"

"Forget it, my brother needs to rest early, and I still have something to do."

Guorong said: "You can drink and sing, I didn't go to bed so early." ”

"That's not okay, the body is the most important thing."

Lu Ping'an turned his head and said to Huo Wenxi, "Send my brother back first, if you play, it's good next time." ”

Guorong spread his hands: "I'm really fine." ”

Lu Ping'an: "Then go back to the mainland and sing again." ”

Guorong smiled and stopped talking, but his heart was warm.

More than an hour later, Lu Ping'an returned to the hotel.

Early the next morning, the group went north, and the viewing party began.
