Chapter 696: June
According to the true thoughts in her heart, Liu Yifei is actually unwilling to take care of Shu Chang.
She sees her girlfriends relatively simply, it's good for everyone to eat, drink, and play together, and she doesn't want to have too many "interests" entanglement with good sisters.
Once there are interests mixed in the relationship, it is not the relationship she wants.
So she is reluctant to open a company on the left and a company on the right with her friends.
One is that he feels troublesome and is unwilling to do it, and the other is that he feels that it is unnecessary.
She still doesn't have any company under her name, and the brokerage company written in the information is Liu Yifei's studio, and she and her husband work together with the two teams.
The Red Star House was finally kicked out two years ago, and the file and social security were transferred to the theater.
On the first Thursday of June, the 19th Shanghai Film Festival officially held a press conference to announce the shortlist of each unit of this film festival.
A total of 15 films were shortlisted in the main competition unit of the Golden Goblet Award, of which 4 were domestic films, namely "The Murder Chaser" directed by Cao Baoping, "Delan" directed by Liu Jie, "Soul on the Leather Rope" directed by Zhang Yang and "Invisible Guest" by newcomer director Xin Yukun, creating the best results of domestic films in the past 10 years.
At the press conference, Wang Ye, deputy director of the Shanghai Film Festival Center, announced: "Li An, Wang Jiawei, Gong Li, Zhang Yuanjun, Huang Xiaoming, Ian McKellen, Lee Min Ho and other domestic and foreign stars have confirmed that they will attend the opening red carpet of the film festival. ”
Except for the time when "Return" was shaken by the Golden Horse Awards, Gong Li has not participated in any film festival competition in recent years.
The spokesperson of the film festival responded: "The Shanghai Film Festival is getting better and better, no one is surprised, of course, we are also honored to invite Gong Li." I believe that all media friends and fans can enjoy the movie feast we have prepared for you this year. ”
When Zhang Yuanjun was interviewed by reporters, he also said that he was honored to participate in the Shanghai Film Festival.
The reporter knows the rules and brings the words to "The Invisible Guest": "What kind of movie is "The Invisible Guest"? ”
"How does it feel to work with Teacher Gong Li for the first time?"
Gong Li also lived up to the invitation of the Shanghai Film Festival. The next day, he responded through his agent: "I am very happy to participate in the Shanghai Film Festival, whether it is to participate in the competition or as a guest, I am doing my part for Chinese films." ”
Zhang Yuanjun said: "Our crew said that this is a very delicate movie, but it shows great dramatic tension in a very small space. ”
The shortlisted interview is also an opportunity to promote the new film, "The Invisible Guest" will be released next month, and the promotion is about to begin.
"You have participated in a lot of international film festivals, this is your first time participating in a domestic film festival, how do you feel at this time?"
Gong Li's confirmation of attendance caused a great response from the media at the press conference.
"More than 30 crews will also appear on the red carpet one by one."
"In fact, no matter how many times I have participated in the film festival, I am very excited every time, because I can see a lot of excellent works and meet a lot of excellent filmmakers, which is the most valuable asset of participating in the film festival." Zhang Yuanjun is too comfortable with this kind of problem.
"Teacher Gong Li has always been my idol in acting, and this cooperation can be regarded as a dream of mine, and filming with her is very enjoyable. There is a saying in our industry that drama comes from the opponent, and I have learned a lot from playing against a palace-level actor like Teacher Gong Li. ”
In the group collection session, reporters also asked more questions about Gong Li's arrival.
Zhang Yuanjun also did not forget to advertise the drama he was about to perform: "I have been rehearsing recently, yes, "Camel Xiangzi", I should have performed fifty or sixty times in the past few years." ”
Even if it has been advertised, reporters and ordinary audiences are not very interested in the drama.
The reporter wants to know Liu Yifei's recent situation: "Yifei doesn't seem to show up much this year, what is she busy with?" Liu Yifei recorded an issue of "Jin Xinxiu" this year, and the rest of the time the reporter couldn't find her.
Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile: "She also has a lot of work in the theater, and she rests at home when she doesn't work." Nothing special will not appear in public. ”
At the end of the interview, Zhang Yuanjun left.
It was also after the press conference of the Shanghai Film Festival that the crew of "Invisible Guest" released a 40-second finalized trailer.
In the trailer, the crew said unceremoniously: "Gong Li, Zhang Yuanjun, Ni Ni, the strongest lineup, brain-burning challenge." On July 1st, the truth was revealed! ”
Along with the trailer, there are also several stills of the leading actors, among which Gong Li's silver hair is the most eye-catching.
Of course, Liu Yifei also received an invitation to the Shanghai Film Festival, but she did not agree on the grounds that she was busy with work, and the organizing committee did not force it.
The total budget of "The Invisible Guest" is as high as 100 million, the actual shooting cost is about 30 million, and the remaining 70 million is almost all publicized.
From the perspective of the structure of capital utilization, such a distribution is actually not very healthy, how can there be a publicity and distribution cost that exceeds the production cost by more than twice the production cost!
But several major investors in "The Invisible Guest" agree with such a plan, Gong Li + Zhang Yuanjun, the publicity must be in place, and the whole world knows about it!
Therefore, as soon as it entered June, the land of large ticket warehouses such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen began to be rolled out, and the bus stops, terminals, and elevators must be occupied.
The crew even spent a huge amount of money to buy the opening roll ads of the two movies "Warcraft" and "X-Men: Apocalypse".
Of course, the ticket supplement has not been spared, and the first batch of 50,000 9.9 and 80,000 19.9 first-day advance tickets have been snatched up.
"The Invisible Guest" ranked third in the "Most Anticipated Film" in the summer file.
This result is good, fighting traffic, "The Invisible Guest" is really not a suspense film against "Warcraft" and "Tomb Robbery Notes".
The former has tens of millions of game fans, and the latter is a big IP of tomb robbery, and with the blessing of a top class like Lu Han, the fans are greedy.
Even Zhang Yuanjun himself bought two tickets for the premiere of "Warcraft".
Zhang Yuanjun knows that "Warcraft" is a movie that harvests fan traffic, but he is willing to be cut because he is really a "Warcraft" player.
The release of the "Warcraft" movie is undoubtedly a carnival for gamers.
Some theaters even divide the theater into two viewing areas, Union and Tribe, and also allow COS to watch movies.
"Please remember to observe the viewing camp when watching the movie, the Alliance must not shout 'Glory for the Aliance' in the tribal viewing area, and the tribe should not shout 'For the Horde' in the alliance viewing area."
The atmosphere of watching the movie was very good.
Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei both disguised themselves and watched the movie.
Liu Yifei didn't play this game at all, but her husband liked it, so she came with her.
In addition to lamenting that the special effects are well done, Liu Yifei can't understand "Warcraft" at all, but Zhang Yuanjun is very energetic.
On Warcraft, she seems to understand why fan-directed movies have been so successful in recent years.
Because there are really people who pay for the feelings of the years, it seems to be quite worthwhile to spend twenty or thirty yuan sitting in the cinema to reminisce about their youth. (End of chapter)
