Chapter 500: Watching the Movie
Who is the last superstar in the era of traditional Chinese TV media?
Zhang Yuanjun thought that there were two, one was his wife, which was really not a boast.
Liu Yifei is the only actor in the entire 85 generation who has perfectly stepped on the two domestic TV promotion dividends.
One is 03-05 years, TV sets are spread out in the vast number of third- and fourth-tier cities, and the other time is that household appliances go to the countryside after 08 years.
Bai Xiuzhu - Wang Yuyan - Zhao Linger - Xiaolongnu, the four characters almost covered the main crowd of moviegoers at that time.
Shi Tangmi and others only ate the dividends after 08 years.
Recalling Liu Yifei's redness, it can really be said to be a superstar-like starlight.
Another superstar is more popular than Liu Yifei, and the degree of popularity is more explosive than Liu Yifei, that is, Zhao Yanzi.
I have to admit that the two roles of Xiaoyanzi and Yiping have given Zhao Yanzi too much.
To put it mildly, she can eat these two characters for a lifetime.
Zhao Yanzi's popularity at that time was really empty.
After Zhao Yanzi and Liu Yifei, China's Internet began to take off, and traditional TV media went downhill.
A large amount of hot money entered the film and television industry, and the era of television is gone forever.
Liu Yifei's accumulated popularity on TV, coupled with a little help from her husband, allowed her to smoothly transform into the big screen and make her the most box office appealing actress in China.
Zhao Yanzi's transition from TV to movies did not go well, and she was scolded for box office poison for a while.
Even, she didn't carry the box office.
The success of "Painted Skin" was not carried by her alone.
However, this must not negate her popularity!
As a big-screen actor, she really wasn't particularly successful, so she transformed again, this time as a director.
wants to go one more and become the director with the most voice in the film and television industry.
For this reason, I also went back to school to study for a master's degree in directing.
This year, she brought her graduation work, which is also her directorial debut, to meet the audience.
"To Our Dying Youth".
The movie did not retreat because "Iron Man 3" was set for May Day, but a small-budget production wants to win Iron Man, and the outside world is not optimistic about its performance.
But no one expected that "To Youth" hit a box office of 47.7 million on the first day, easily surpassing the 35 million results of "Thai Embarrassment" and setting a new box office record for 2D Chinese films on the first day.
The first weekend won 100 million 4 in three days, which stunned everyone.
"To Youth" is so popular, 500 million is absolutely no problem! It's crazy to sell, and it's even more powerful than "Thai Embarrassment". Many theater managers have such feelings.
Film critics said that this is because "Little Swallow" has accumulated good popularity for more than ten years, and it has finally been exchanged for real money in the director's works.
So why didn't her fans support the movie she acted in before?
Or the times have changed, the tuyere of youth films is coming, and the work of the movie "To Youth" is in place.
One of the main moviegoers of "To Youth" is college students who are about to graduate.
At the end of April, the thesis was finished, the job was almost found, and I was waiting for my graduation certificate.
Of course, those who want to relive their youthful years after graduation are also the audience of this play.
I'm sorry, Zhang Yuanjun is not interested in "To Youth", instead of watching "To Youth", it is better to watch "Chinese Partner".
So, he really came to the China Film Screening Hall today to watch the film in advance.
At today's viewing meeting, director Chen Kexin did not come, but the three leading actors came, and there were several producers.
In fact, today's film viewing will be open to the media and film critics, and Zhang Yuanjun is a free rider.
But Zhang Yuanjun came to watch the film in advance, which was not expected by the filmmaker, the media and critics present.
"Xiao Ming said I invited you two days ago, I thought you wouldn't come." Zhao Haicheng, the Chinese film producer of "Chinese Partner", said.
Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile: "There are free movies to watch and free snacks to eat, why don't I come." ”
Mr. Zhao smiled: "If you are aiming for these, then I will look for you every day from now on." ”
Naturally, chatting with the media and film critics is indispensable.
"I've been busy preparing for a new play lately."
"How dare you refuse your interview, you knock on the keyboard, we are afraid to death."
"Yifei is in the United States, and she is busy with two plays in a row."
"You're a little fatter than before, so you've been eating less during this time."
After chatting, Zhang Yuanjun sat down and waited to watch the film.
"Chinese Partner" can't be regarded as a bad movie anyway, Zhang Yuanjun is an actor, from the perspective of performance, the actors of "Chinese Partner" have completed their performances very well, especially Huang Xiaoming, who has been stumbling for 4 years from "The Wind" to now, and finally came up with a good role.
When the subtitles came out, Zhang Yuanjun said to Zhang Xiaobei beside him: "The satirical part is buried very well, and Xiao Ming plays it well." ”
Zhang Xiaobei nodded in agreement with Zhang Yuanjun's opinion: "Tong Dawei's performance is slightly insufficient, but he has the least role among the three brothers, and the character will not be so shallow if he gives more scenes." ”
After the subtitles are played, the lights come on in the screening room.
This kind of film viewing meeting held within the film company is not something that you can leave after watching the film and eating snacks, and the film company will pull you to put forward opinions and communicate.
Zhang Yuanjun chatted directly with producer Zhao Haicheng and the three leading actors.
First of all, of course, I want to praise Huang Xiaoming, Zhang Yuanjun directly made a big move: "The role of Cheng Dongqing is more than enough to win an actor." ”
Although Huang Xiaoming relied on a handsome face to win the world in his early years, as an orthodox academic, he cared very much about others' evaluation of his acting skills.
In recent years, his acting skills have been questioned, which makes him very anxious.
Now he heard Zhang Yuanjun praise him for his good acting and winning the actor after watching the first sentence of the film, he was very excited.
"At first, I took a fancy to Meng Xiaojun, but then I chose Cheng Dongqing." Huang Xiaoming said.
"It's a good thing you didn't choose Meng Xiaojun." Deng Chao on the side said, "I didn't like Cheng Dongqing from the beginning and wanted to play Meng Xiaojun." ”
Zhang Yuanjun continued to praise Huang Xiaoming for giving him confidence: "The soil is real soil, but it is also really good." ”
Huang Xiaoming smiled even more happily, and Zhao Haicheng interjected at the right time: "When the time comes, will you come for a trip?" ”
"When are you premiering?"
"On the afternoon of the 13th, at Tsinghua University."
"No. 13 is really not free," Zhang Yuanjun refused the invitation, "We brought makeup to the whole row that day." ”
"Okay, your rehearsal is important."
Zhang Yuanjun immediately sold a face: "If there is any material on Weibo that I want to forward, just open your mouth." ”
Non-main creative artists who forward promotional materials, except for those who have a particularly good personal relationship, and those who voluntarily forward them are generally charged.
Zhang Yuanjun charges six figures for a propaganda Weibo, which does not start with 1, and he does not post everything.
Zhang Yuanjun can sell "Partner", of course Zhao Haicheng has to continue: "Trouble you then." ”
"If the film is good, it should be seen by more audiences." After saying this, Zhang Yuanjun smiled, looked at Huang Xiaoming and said, "But in the future, there is a good character like Cheng Dongqing, you can find me." ”
Huang Xiaoming also smiled: "Ask the director to change the actors' subtitles." ”
Everyone laughed.
Zhang Yuanjun suddenly remembered something and asked Zhao Haicheng: "Mr. Zhao, who is the little actor who played Meng Xiaojun's wife when he was a child in the movie just now?" ”
"It's called Zhao Zimu, what's wrong?" There are not many young actors in "Partner", and Zhao Haicheng remembers it very clearly.
"Yifei lacks a young actor of this age, I think that girl is very good."
"It's easy to say, I'll call someone to contact me and bring me to meet you." It's all right.
After the exchange after the screening, Zhang Yuanjun went home, no problem. (End of chapter)
