"First of all, we want to make your name known. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" The wine was surging, and Song Xue's face was a little red and said: "In my opinion, your two film experiences are good publicity materials, but they have not kept up with professional publicity methods, such as when "The Grandmaster" was released, you didn't seize the opportunity, it's a pity, and this time the popularity of "Embroidered Spring Knife" can completely brush up the exposure! I can contact a few media, you accept a few interviews first, so that the audience is more familiar with your face, is the most important thing." ”

Nodding, Cao Ping said with a smile: "Let's eat something first, and talk while eating." ”

Song Xue nodded and picked up the chopsticks, she ate early at noon, and she was also a little hungry. After a short period of contact, she already has a vague understanding of Cao Ping, although she doesn't know what she likes, but at least to be honest, he won't be angry, which is enough. While eating, Song Xue said, "Mr. Cao, I have to say some things in advance, I hope you don't mind." ”

"You say. Cao Ping spit out his bones and said.

Song Xue said boldly: "I'll roughly analyze it first, do you want to take the route of an action star?"

"That's probably the case at the moment. Cao Ping did not deny it.

Song Xue nodded and said, "Then since we have a positioning, we'd better standardize our speech and behavior, behavior and language." Because action stars are easy to create stereotypes such as advocating violence, developed limbs and simple minds, action stars often need to neutralize the violent image in the movie through more deliberate exposure, like Jackie Chan, who has successfully created a pro-people, patriotic, kind, and loving image through various public welfare activities, and Donnie Yen is also learning to do it now, which is what we need to pay attention to. Therefore, you will have to go through training in your future external remarks, including some reporters' questions and answers, etc., and it will be safer to discuss with me as much as possible before speaking out. ”

"Yes. Nodding, Cao Ping did not refuse, this was originally to be handed over to the agent to do, seeing Cao Ping agree, Song Xue was very happy, and continued: "Also, I hope to set up a team, which I am responsible for managing, including your personal assistant, makeup artist, stylist, driver, etc., after all, I am just one person." ”

"No problem, you make an application, I'll sign it for you, and ask Xiao Zuo to allocate money to do it. "This is a good thing, Cao Ping has no reason to refuse, even if she is allowed to manage it all, the actual boss is still herself, and nothing will go wrong.

Seeing Cao Ping agree, Song Xue was very happy, as an agent, she was most afraid of meeting a boss who refused to let go of power, and she couldn't get any ideas, so she was still a fart, which was also the reason why she left Huayi, not that Huayi was bad, but that once the family was big, she would fall into the so-called development trend of seeking stability. For example, if you are taking an artist to eat with a customer, the customer asks to change a song, and you have to apply to the leader for an application, and the business has long been yellow, so Song Xue is still very happy to meet a leader like Cao Ping, who has a big family and is willing to give up power.

Song Xue finally said: "Mr. Cao, I have to remind you that on the issue of personal image maintenance, you must communicate with me in advance when you are interviewed by radio, television, periodicals, newspapers, traditional Internet, mobile Internet and other media in the future. Also, for new media promotion and fan management, you'd better also authorize me to manage the Weibo account. ”

"Then my number won't be able to be used from now on?" Cao Ping asked.

"Of course you can. Song Xue explained: "It's just that we should pay special attention to the remarks on Weibo, in recent years, there are not a few people in the circle planted on it." ”

"Okay!" Cao Ping thought about it and agreed, who calls people professional? Anyway, he doesn't usually play Weibo much.

Song Xue finally put her mind at ease, feeling that the strength of the wine had passed, and when she filled a glass of wine, she raised her glass and said with a smile: "Then I wish us a smooth cooperation in the future!"

Glancing at her, Cao Ping raised his wine glass with a smile and said, "The cooperation is going well!"

"Click! Break for five minutes. As soon as Xu Haofeng gave the order, Cao Ping stopped, and the group performers were already sweating profusely. The weather is hot, the clothes are thick, and it is easy to get heat stroke, so the director can only let the actors rest for a while to dry their sweat, otherwise they will be covered in sweat and the shots will not look good.

Sitting back on the chair in the rest area, Song Xue had already handed over the cold mineral water and towels, and she played the role of assistant before the assistant was in place.

The towel was placed in the clear well water, cool and silky, after wiping off the sweat on the body, it was very refreshing, Cao Ping knew how incompetent the assistant of Sister Dao was.

Song Xue took a small notebook and said: "The Southern Metropolis Daily has replied, and a reporter will be sent over tomorrow to do an exclusive interview, and we can prepare the answers to the questions that the other party may mention when we go back in the evening." ”

"So fast?" Cao Ping put a towel around his neck and asked, "How much is the box office of "Embroidered Spring Knife" now?"

"Just over 90 million, it is estimated that it will not break 100 million, it is already good, and the most important thing is that the word-of-mouth is a one-sided praise, which is very helpful to you. Song Xue said seriously.

"This road guide still owes me a red envelope! I have to ask him to invite me to drink when I go back to Beijing this time. Cao Ping joked with a smile, looking in a good mood.

Song Xue said regretfully on the side: "It would be nice if you went over to promote the movie press conference at the beginning ......of the month, why didn't you invite the road guide?"

Cao Ping's smile faded a lot, of course he knew why Lu Yang didn't invite him, he didn't want to mention the car accident anymore.

Reba also came to sit on the platform next to Cao Ping, and said with a smile: "Don't you invite me, a life-saving benefactor, to drink water?"

Smiled and handed over a bottle of chilled mineral water, Reba thanked him and took it, Cao Ping asked, "Where are you going after the scene is finished?"

Reba took a sip and said, shaking his head and saying, "Go to Hangzhou! ”

"Why do you suddenly want to shoot an urban-themed drama?" Cao Ping asked.

The stage was relatively high, Reba kicked his calves, and said nonchalantly: "Many people say that I am not suitable for ancient costumes, so let's shoot a modern drama to try the water! This drama is produced by Yu Zheng Studio, and I may become popular with this drama!"

"Come on! Cao Ping smiled and encouraged, although it was only a short ten days, and the official filming scene took only three or four days, but the crew liked this little girl very much, she didn't have many scenes, it is estimated that it will be completed in another day or two, and there may not be a chance to see you again in the future, Cao Ping's blessing is from the bottom of his heart.

Hearing the seriousness in Cao Ping's tone, Reba glanced back at him, suddenly smiled, clenched his fist with the trademark little smugness and said in a rough voice: "That's it, don't look at who I am, I'm Di Ali Reba who will be popular all over the world in the future!

Seeing that she was funny again, the crew laughed and teased her, Cao Ping smiled and turned back to watch the rehearsal of the group performance, but did not see a trace of strangeness in her eyes.

"Here, the actors are in place!" the on-site director's shout sounded, and everyone was engaged in the intense filming again.

At noon the next day, a reporter from Southern Metropolis Daily came to the crew as scheduled, and took advantage of lunch to give Cao Ping an interview.

A reporter from Southern Metropolis Daily had heard of Cao Ping, and asked him as soon as he came up: "I take the liberty to ask Mr. Cao, are you the Cao Ping mentioned twice by Zhang Ziyi at the Golden Horse Awards last year?"

It's been almost a year, but I didn't expect anyone to remember this, Cao Ping nodded and said: "That's right, I was in charge of action design related work with the eighth master in the crew of "The Grandmaster". ”

The reporter nodded, continued to ask the next question, and said: "We saw that in "Embroidered Spring Knife", while you served as the action director, you also played the role of Jin Yichuan. Is there a time conflict between the two?"

In the process of interviewing reporters, questions and answers need to be paid special attention, sometimes the confrontation of words in front of the microphone is no less than the collision of weapons, the slightest carelessness will hurt oneself, if the answer is inappropriate, it is easy to affect one's own image. And those who can calmly deal with the siege of reporters with long guns and short guns, and can also use the power of the media to promote themselves, can be regarded as artists with qualified emotional intelligence.

This is a friendship question, Cao Ping also borrowed the donkey to go downhill and poured some bitter water, talked about how hard filming was at the beginning, and answered this question.

gave Cao Ping a face, and the next question was naturally much sharper, and the reporter dug a pit for Cao Ping as soon as he opened his mouth: ""Embroidered Spring Knife" was released in early August, and the word of mouth was booming all the way, but the final box office was sad to pass the 100 million yuan mark, and now some people are arguing about it on the Internet, some people say that it is because the publicity work is not in place, and some people say that you can't blame the publicity because the film didn't sell well, and the main reason is that the number of films is not good, what do you think about this?"

On the one hand, it is the publicity and distribution unit in the circle, and on the other hand, it is the cinema line, no one can offend, so we have to pay attention to this answer, but fortunately, Cao Ping was prepared and calmly replied: "Actually, this matter should be considered by the director, has my salary been settled, haha!" Xiao made a joke, Cao Ping continued: " Of course, this is the first time I've worked as an independent action director, and I really hope that it will be recognized by the market and the audience, but in the end, the box office results are not satisfactory, and I think this is also a side reflection of the audience's love for this movie. Regarding the debate among netizens, I think which statement is not very fair to the crew. Our film crew is a whole, whether it is production, publicity, distribution, all aspects are hoping that the film can be good, everyone is working hard, I believe that this shortcomings and reflection will make everyone better in the future. ”

Cao Ping's answer was not leaky, but the reporter refused to let him go easily, and continued to ask: "Some film critics commented that the Jin Yichuan you played is 'the most eye-catching character, whether it is a play or an emotional scene, it is beautiful and neat, not procrastinating, it is rare to be a clean and clear knight, and he is more popular with the audience than Shen Lian." 'What do you think about that?'

This question is a bit sharp, it is directly compared with Cao Ping and Zhang Zhen, frowned, Cao Ping replied lightly: "Zhang Zhen is my good friend, and I have also learned a lot from him in acting." And he stopped.

Song Xue got up just right to stop the reporter who wanted to dig deep into the big news, and said politely: "I'm sorry, our artists are going to prepare for the next scene, and I'll answer the next questions, okay?
