the next day.
Lin Yuan came to the company.
Lao Zhou appeared in Lin Yuan's office again and told him about yesterday's news. He ended up complaining in a displeased manner:
"This guy really knows how to handle things."
"Using the Internet's gimmick to hype it up."
"He used regional competition to win more box office from Central China audiences, but he was afraid that people would use this to criticize him, so he was very cunning and deliberately used a joking tone to speak the truth, saying that he admired your music very much, when it was obviously a competition of movies."
"It's weird."
"It's a good thing he's still a great director."
"Although he secretly stepped on us, he also promoted us. However, the degree of publicity was not enough. He took more advantage than us. After all, the continents that joined later were not so familiar with your movies, especially Weizhou. Many people have never even seen your movies."
Lin Yuan nodded.
Lin Yuan was not very angry about Director Zhongzhou's deliberate hype, although he did not like this method either.
But what Lao Zhou said at the end was true.
The influence of Xianyu movies has been gradually weakening from Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei to Zhongzhou.
Wei Zhou joined the merger last year.
Lin Yuan didn’t even have a single movie released, he was too busy with other things, not to mention Zhongzhou which only joined the merger this year.
In this case.
Publicity is very important.
Old Zhou frowned and said, "Let's increase the publicity budget and buy more advertisements for the movies released this month. As for offline publicity, we will focus on Zhaozhou, Weizhou and Zhongzhou."
Lin Yuan’s films have little influence in these three continents.
Now that Blue Star has merged, each continent has become a voting base of the same level.
As for movie pre-roll ads, these are copies of movie trailers together with the films currently being shown. These ads are broadcast before the movies are shown and should be familiar to people who often go to the cinema.
This stuff is expensive.
After all, it is a targeted delivery.
However, Lin Yuan smiled and said, "No need to increase the budget. I will do the promotion this time."
"You come..."
Lao Zhou was stunned for a moment, then he was pleasantly surprised:
"You're going to promote it yourself!?"
Before participating in the King of Masked Singer, Xianyu never showed his face in the front stage.
Even after being cast as Queen of Masked Singer, Xianyu has only appeared on several occasions.
Otherwise, why did Xianyu cause such a huge sensation in various continents just by appearing in the live broadcast room
Isn’t it because he is usually too low-key
Before the new movie comes out.
Other screenwriters and directors would drag the crew along and run around to promote the film.
As for Xianyu, even though he has filmed several movies, he has never personally attended the promotion of a film crew.
At most, we can send a notification online.
As perfunctory as if it wasn't his movie.
This time Xianyu is actually going to promote the product himself!
It seems that Xianyu attaches great importance to this movie "Kung Fu".
"Any questions?"
"No problem, no problem. If you are willing to promote it yourself, that will be better than adding any budget."
Old Zhou's mouth was split open with laughter.
The appearance of Xianyu is the highest publicity cost!
None of the previous movies received this kind of treatment!
However, Lin Yuan did not think that his participation in the publicity was anything worth mentioning.
I didn’t like to do publicity activities back then because I was afraid of the camera.
Now that Lin Yuan has completely adapted to the camera, this kind of thing doesn’t matter to him anymore.
Moreover, this is the first film after the Blue Star merger, and it targets audiences around the world.
Lin Yuan personally promoted the film because he wanted to know how brilliantly a movie like "Kung Fu" that is full of the charm of oriental martial arts would shine in this world dominated by oriental aesthetics.
"Then you arrange it."
"I'm planning a promotional event and inviting Yu Dynasty to be the guest. Let's hold it before the movie airs!"
"Um."
Lin Yuan added: "In addition to publicity, I have other arrangements."
"besides?"
“Do you watch cartoons?”
"Don't look..."
"You can check it out if you have nothing to do. I mean the second children's channel."
Second children's channel
That channel seems to broadcast only cartoons about shadows.
Yingzi and Xianyu have a very good relationship, and Lao Zhou knows this.
But Lao Zhou couldn’t understand what the relationship was between shadows and Kung Fu
…
It’s okay to not understand it.
In the next few days, Lao Zhou actually started watching cartoons on the Second Children's Channel.
Watch it at work.
I watch it after get off work.
When the people in the film department found out about this, they were all amused and said that Lao Zhou had "a childlike heart."
And in these few days.
It’s even more lively in Zhongzhou.
Perhaps Liu has set a good example, and other directors with new films released in August will see the results;
Or maybe the directors and screenwriters at Zhongzhou do have some ideas about Xianyu
In short.
In the past few days, several screenwriters and directors in Zhongzhou have followed Liu Xing's lead and issued similar arguments of "helping the Zhongzhou music scene to avenge", which has made netizens from all over the world more and more amused:
"Fish Dad is so miserable!"
"This is being targeted by Zhongzhou."
"Music can't help him, so he can only start with movies?"
"Although it seems like a joke, I feel like these guys are going a little too far."
"The excessive pride of the people of Zhongzhou has led to their strong sense of honor. They are unwilling to accept failure in any field, even if they only lost to Xianyu personally. After all, they have more gold medals in the Blue Music Club, so the directors and screenwriters of Zhongzhou besieged Xianyu."
"This wave is an ambush from all sides."
"By the way, this group of people is actually making me interested in Kung Fu. Is this movie a martial arts movie?"
"Martial arts movies, I quite like them."
“I didn’t like it before, thinking it was old-fashioned, but then I read Chu Kuang’s The Legend of the Condor Heroes trilogy, and my interest was rekindled.”
"I didn't remember any of the names of those screenwriters and directors in Zhongzhou, but I remember Kung Fu clearly. Although Yu Dad seems to be in a bad situation, he actually made a fortune, okay?"
"Hahaha, it seems to be true!"
"It's possible to do the reverse. Everyone knows that the group of directors and screenwriters in Zhongzhou directly helped promote Yu Dad's new movie."
"That's right."
"Have you ever thought about what would happen if Fish Dad wins this time?"
"puff!"
"If we win, we'll make a fortune!"
“Although I don’t know the scoring criteria of the Literature and Art Association’s film and television rankings, but since he was besieged by a group of Central Continent directors and won the battle, Yu Dad’s ranking will definitely soar!”
"That's what I said."
"But it's not that easy."
"The film and television list has just come out. Although many big names haven't had time to make a move yet, judging from the publicity, the competition in August will be quite fierce."
There is crazy discussion on all continents.
The attempt by director Zhongzhou and screenwriters to promote the film actually had a reverse effect, indirectly helping to promote "Kung Fu"!
Old Zhou laughed so hard that he was silly.
Not as angry as before.
Lao Zhou even wanted to thank Director Zhongzhou and the screenwriters for their selfless dedication, which invisibly helped Xingmang save some publicity costs.
Don’t think about it for now.
The cartoon has begun.
Lao Zhou has been watching cartoons since he finished chatting with Lin Yuan a few days ago. He is almost obsessed with it, but he still can't find any connection between these cartoons and "Kung Fu".
But I have to say:
These cartoons are quite interesting. Lao Zhou has been watching them these past few days and is a little addicted to them. Maybe he really has a childlike heart
Tonight.
Lao Zhou is still squatting on the second least channel.
An animated film called "Little Tiger Returns Home" just finished airing last night.
Don't know what the next work will be
Old Zhou was a little curious, and even had some inexplicable anticipation.
soon.
The follow-up work has been aired.
This is
Old Zhou in front of the screen suddenly widened his eyes!
The cartoon that follows "Little Tiger Returns Home" is called...
It’s called “The Adventures of He Sheng”!
What the hell is the Adventures of He Sheng.
He Sheng is the leading male character in "Kung Fu"!
How did his name appear in the cartoon
Is this the reason why Xianyu asked him to pay attention to the cartoons on the Second Children’s Channel
But…
It's just a name, just like having a duplicate name, it shouldn't be able to promote "Kung Fu", right
Wondering.
Lao Zhou started watching this cartoon.
And at home at this time.
Lin Yuan showed a strange smile.
Sorry, Jackie Chan, I can't lend you my cartoon.
