Fix the car.
The girl left first.
When Gu Dong was about to move on, Lin Yuan suddenly received a call from Lao Zhou:
"No need to go. It seems that the girl has some urgent matters to deal with. I don't have time to meet you today. This is not very authentic. I have already criticized them severely. It's a wasted trip. Don't be too angry. Let's make an appointment next time and let her come to see you!"
"Um."
No feeling.
Lin Yuan just treated it as going out for a ride.
The two returned to the company.
On the way back, Gu Dong suddenly said with some emotion:
"The young lady just now looked like a rich person. I didn't expect that she could even repair cars. If it weren't for her, we would have broken down on the road. And she is so beautiful, prettier than many female stars. It's a pity that I forgot to ask her how she maintains her skin..."
Lin Yuan closed his eyes and rested.
Rest after the battle.
He felt his bargaining skills were rusty.
You have to know that he is the super bargaining king in Jian Yi and Xia Fan's hearts. In the past, when the three of them went out to buy things, he could normally get the price in half price. But this time, he didn't get any advantage.
After returning to the company, Lao Zhou didn't mention the blind date again.
During dinner, my mother didn't mention it again.
Lin Yuan just regarded it as a small episode in life.
the next day.
Lin Yuan came to the company again, only to see Lao Zhou and a group of people from the film department getting ready to leave.
"Would you like to join us?"
Seeing Lin Yuan, Lao Zhou smiled and said, "We organized a screening of The Truman Show."
Lin Yuan was stunned: "The movie show hasn't started yet? Hasn't the schedule been set?"
Lao Zhou explained: "Many theaters are willing to pay for your film, so everyone has scheduled the release date in advance, but the specific scheduling still depends on the quality of the film."
"Well, I won't go."
Dealing with theater representatives requires certain communication skills, and Lin Yuan is not good at dealing with that kind of situation.
He has a simple way of dealing with various situations.
Just a smile that meets society's expectations.
"Then we'll go first."
Lao Zhou waved his hand and led the film department to a screening location that had been booked in advance.
The film will be screened at the Times Cinema in Suzhou.
After Lao Zhou and others arrived, they greeted representatives from major cinema chains at the door.
"Representative Zhang is here!"
"Please come in, Representative Wang!"
"Long time no see, Representative Li!"
"… "
Film is an art of division of labor. Not only do the screenwriters, directors and actors each have their own responsibilities, but after the filming is completed, Lao Zhou and others also have the task of arranging film screenings.
After the film screening.
Regarding the film scheduling and the share of profits among theater chains, Lao Zhou and others needed to engage in a heated debate with representatives from various theater chains.
In the crowd.
Ye Hongyu from Dadi Cinemas is also here.
This is Ye Hongyu's second time attending Xianyu's movie screening.
The last time she attended was a screening of "Hachiko: A Dog's Tale".
As a result, Ye Hongyu, who was known as the Iron Lady, burst into tears.
This time Ye Hongyu came in a very low-key manner. After a simple greeting to Lao Zhou, she walked straight into the theater.
Accompanying Ye Hongyu was a market analyst from Dadi Cinemas named Pan Lei.
The so-called market analysis is to evaluate the box office of a movie.
In fact, this is the job of theater representatives, but sometimes theater representatives will also bring more professional analysts.
Because such professional analysts tend to make more accurate judgments on the value of films.
…
After sitting down in the theater.
Pan Lei teased, "Did Hongyu bring enough tissues today?"
As the Iron Lady of Dadi Cinemas, Ye Hongyu claims that she will never have any emotional fluctuations when watching any movie.
But the last time I watched "Hachiko: A Dog's Story", Ye Hongyu failed miserably.
After this incident spread, many people in the company liked to tease Ye Hongyu about it.
Today is another Xianyu Film screening, so Pan Lei brought up the old matter again.
"I won't cry anymore today, but you should take care of yourself."
Ye Hongyu rolled her eyes.
Pan Lei said: "Today we will only laugh, not cry, after all, this is a comedy."
The leading actor in today's "The Truman Show" is He Sheng.
He Sheng became famous for his role in "A Chinese Odyssey: Part One", and has been a comedian since his debut. After that, all the movies he has starred in have also been comedies.
Today, He Sheng is already a well-known comedy star in the comedy circle.
When Pan Lei saw that "The Truman Show" was starred by He Sheng and the screenwriter was Xian Yu, he subconsciously thought it was a nonsensical comedy.
This is also the idea of representatives from other theaters.
However.
At this moment, Lao Zhou suddenly walked to the front of the stage and said something into the microphone: "Before the movie starts, I need to remind everyone that The Truman Show is an art film."
The scene suddenly became noisy.
Ye Hongyu was also a little surprised.
Pan Lei blurted out: "What is Xingmang doing?"
The scale of this film screening was quite large, and everyone thought that this movie was a commercial comedy, but Lao Zhou actually said that it was an art film
Is an art film worth making such a big fuss
Can you make money from this thing
What we cinemas want is box office!
good.
It doesn’t matter even if it’s an art film.
Xianyu's art film should not be too self-congratulatory in terms of plot, so it will definitely still get some box office revenue.
But what’s the matter with you choosing He Sheng as the male lead
He Sheng is a comedian through and through!
How can a nonsensical comedian star in an art film
Did the casting director get kicked in the head by a donkey
Doesn’t it look dramatic
For a moment, the theater representatives were a little puzzled.
But after the noise, the scene quickly quieted down again.
Everyone here is not an ordinary audience member, and we all know that anything can happen in movies.
Now it depends on how Xingmang can resolve these conflicts.
If Yuan can't make it back, the screening schedule of this movie will be absolutely miserable.
After all, there is no such thing as an invincible general in the cinema.
Even if Xianyu performs well in every movie, no one dares to say that Xianyu's next movie will be a success.
Theater representatives have seen too many companies that have succeeded several times, but finally fell flat on their face and never got up again.
"The problem is not the art film, but He Sheng."
After observing the reactions of the theater representatives, Lao Zhou whispered something to the film department member next to him.
The person from the film department said, "This is Xianyu's insistence, and there is nothing we can do about it."
Lao Zhou smiled and said, "But you have seen the finished product, and you should know that He Sheng's performance is very good."
“That’s true.”
While Lao Zhou was discussing with his colleagues, the screen went dark.
The movie presents the star-studded corporate brand image, which is a group of shining stars in the starry sky.
then.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses and with deep eyes appeared in the screen, speaking slowly and seriously to the camera:
"We are tired of the actors' affectations, explosions and computer special effects. In some ways, although Truman lives in a fictional world, he is not fake at all. There is no script or cue card. Although this may not be a masterpiece of a famous teacher, it is authentic. This is a record of real life..."
Swish!
This was clearly just the first scene of the movie, or even the first line, but a layer of fine and dense hair quickly stood up on Ye Hongyu's neck!
Professional theater representatives are always so sensitive to the intentions of movies.
Although her expression showed nothing, she just said with a strange tone:
"What's this?"
Pan Lei didn't say anything, but there was doubt and surprise in his eyes, and his scalp felt numb for some unknown reason!
The Truman Show
Could this be...
If I am not mistaken, Xianyu's script creativity this time is too horrible, it is simply a god-level brain hole like a fairy!!!
