Chapter 326 Bald Xu with zero negative reviews
Sina Entertainment News
"As soon as Zheng Xiuwen's single and the theme song of "Love Is Not Blind" "Goodbye, Just a Stranger" was released, the number of downloads and views set a record for Zheng Xiuwen's single release."
"Sammi Cheng said in an interview that she was very happy to sing the theme song of Love Is Not Blind, which indirectly fulfilled her wish to work with Director Lee."
“I hope that next time I can not only sing the theme song, but also act in Director Li’s script.”
Wang Zhonglei was furious and his face was gloomy.
The theme song MV and trailer of "Love Is Not Blind" overwhelmed "If You Are the One" as soon as they were released.
Deputy Xu Li said objectively: "Boss Wang, Director Feng's audience is of all ages and genders."
"However, the audience of Love Is Not Blind is obviously aimed at young people, and so far, the response seems to be very enthusiastic."
"I'm afraid it will be a dark horse in this year's Lunar New Year movie. Our schedule is at a disadvantage!"
Xu Li didn't say it clearly, but Wang Zhonglei knew it very well.
As long as the word of mouth does not collapse after its release, it will most likely be another movie that grosses between 100 million and 200 million yuan.
The Lunar New Year cake is only that big
"Xiaogang, what do you say?"
Feng Xiaogang stood up suddenly and said through gritted teeth, "I will take Ge You and Shu Qi to start promoting the event across the country a week in advance."
"I just don't believe that If You Are the One will lose to Love Is Not Blind!"
Wang Zhonglei nodded: "Okay, if you need anything, I will fully support you!"
The one who suffered the most was Old Monster Xu.
I had originally been looking down on "Love Is Not Blind" with a fluke mentality, but who would have thought that a few lines of a single song would arouse the enthusiasm and curiosity of netizens.
This was a bolt from the blue for the film "Women Are Not Bad" which was released on the same day.
"Mr. Yu, do you think we should adjust the schedule again?" Shi Nansheng's voice on the phone was lukewarm, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry.
Yu Dong smiled bitterly and said, "Ms. Shi, how can we adjust it now? If we adjust it again, it will be out of the Lunar New Year period."
Yang Siwei became more confident and took his three subordinates to travel to major cities and universities across the country to do roadshows and publicity.
On the other hand, Tim brought several main creators of "Twilight" and two Oscar-winning actresses to the mainland.
The United States is currently experiencing a subprime mortgage crisis. Film companies are unable to obtain loans, many projects have been suspended, and the market is in a slump.
Tim listened to his boss and withdrew from the stock market early this year without suffering a large loss.
As soon as the few people got off the plane and appeared at the airport, they immediately caused a commotion.
Charlize is charming with blonde hair, Gloria is charismatic, and the fledgling K is a little green.
Several people were surrounded by fans who had been waiting there early.
If it weren't for the bodyguards clearing the way, the airport would inevitably be congested.
Dior had a special car to pick up Charlize and Gloria.
Tim and his group were also picked up by a car from Rongchen Pictures.
The two parties parted at the airport.
"It's so cold in BJ." Little K, who came to BJ for the first time, tightened his coat and sighed.
Tim laughed, "It's not even the coldest yet."
The person who came to pick them up was Yu Miao.
After Tim settled everyone down, he and Yu Miao went to the set of Passengers.
Coincidentally, Wang Changtian also came to visit the set.
The premiere of "Hong Kong Journey" shot by Bald Xu will be held in Beijing soon.
Wang Changtian naturally hoped that Li Chen would participate.
"I won't go. I've read the script. If I go, I'll offend you and make you lose face. You'll curse Li Chen in your heart."
Wang Changtian laughed and said, "Not really, but seriously? Do you really not think highly of Xu Zheng's play?"
"The box office won't be too bad, but the word of mouth won't be too good." Li Chen said bluntly.
Wang Changtian was very satisfied with this statement. In his opinion, as long as the box office was not bad, the word of mouth would not be too bad either.
Due to the strong performance of "Draw the Bow" and "The Sound of Wind", the release date of "Hong Kong Journey" was adjusted from October 10 to November 30.
"Ms. Fan and Mr. Li Ming, if you have time tonight, you must come and support us." Wang Changtian said with a smile to Li Ming and Fan Qiaoqiao who were not far away.
"Of course, Mr. Wang, I would go even if you didn't tell me." Fan Qiaoqiao said very politely.
China Film Group and Ying Huang are both producers of "Hong Kong Journey".
Of course she had to go to show her support, as she is a contracted artist of Bona Yinglong.
After seeing Wang Changtian off, Li Chen continued filming.
Even if a romance film is dressed in a sci-fi guise, it must have a few unforgettable lines.
For example, the one about the broken boat: You jump, I jump!
"Passengers" also has: You die, I die!
Li Ming fixed the wire, suspended in the air, and gave Li Chen a thumbs up to indicate that everything was fine.
"Action!"
The engineer played by Li Ming floats in the universe in a space suit for the sake of the lives of 5000 people on board.
As his life was approaching its last moment, what emerged in his mind was the scene of him and Fan Qiaoqiao living a wonderful life in the house they built.
But he knew that he couldn't wait any longer.
Li Ming's eyes were gentle, and he used up his last bit of strength to confess affectionately: "I hope we can meet again in 90 years."
"I can build a house for you and read the books you write. That would be wonderful."
Fan Qiaoqiao cried and shouted loudly, and ran for his life: "No, no." He felt like he was losing the whole world.
She couldn't imagine how she would survive alone without Li Ming in the next few decades.
"Click! Passed!" Li Chen said with a smile.
Li Ming came down from the wire. Fan Qiaoqiao wiped his tears, changed his mood and said with a smile: "It's rare that the director passed it on the first try."
Li Chen was also in a good mood: "It's rare that you two are in sync with each other. You passed it in one take. I believe this scene will be released."
"Xiao Fan and Brother Ming are going to have scandals again."
Li Ming laughed and said, "Qiao Qiao acted very well just now. I thought I was her lover."
Li Chen also praised: "Xiao Fan's acting skills have indeed improved."
Fan Qiaoqiao was very happy and said with a smile: "Thank you Brother Chen for the compliment, and thank you Brother Ming for the misunderstanding."
There was a sudden burst of applause from the audience.
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
When they turned around, they saw that it was Tim who spoke fluent Chinese.
Fan Qiaoqiao knew this person, Brother Chen’s overseas spokesperson.
Chiyou and the CEO of New Line.
"When did you come? How come the financial crisis didn't make you thin?" Li Chen walked up and patted Tim on the shoulder.
Tim laughed. “That’s because I have a very smart boss.”
"I've been here for a while. I didn't disturb you because I saw you were filming. The interior of this spaceship is really luxurious."
“It looks like an ordinary studio from the outside, but the interior is eye-catching.”
Li Chen introduced Fan Qiaoqiao and Li Ming to Tim.
Tim had already met Fan Qiaoqiao at the premiere of "Thieves".
Her lips were as sweet as honey: "Miss Fan is getting more and more beautiful."
"You are becoming more and more charming." Fan Qiaoqiao replied with a smile.
Li Chen asked again: "Charlize and Gloria are here too?"
Tim nodded and said, "We're already here, and Charlize is complaining that you didn't pick her up at the airport."
Li Chen smiled and said, "She is here to participate in a brand event, so she will naturally be received by the brand."
"We'll welcome you at the Wangfu Hotel tonight. Have you arranged for the crew of Twilight?"
"Don't worry, boss, everything has been arranged."
Fan Qiaoqiao sighed and said deliberately, "I promised to attend the premiere of 'Hong Kong Road' tonight. I really want to have a meal with Brother Chen."
As the hosts, China Film Group and Light Media organized the premiere of "Hong Kong Journey" with great fanfare.
Not only did Ying Huang's people come to show their support, but all the top celebrities in the circle who were invited also showed up on the red carpet of the premiere.
According to Fan Qiaoqiao's description, Director Xu was a very popular person that night.
The muscles on my face were cramping from laughing so hard.
Nearly fifty guests at the scene gave the film a lot of compliments after the movie.
Sina Entertainment News
"Before the Lunar New Year holiday, the global premiere of 'Hong Kong Journey' was held in Beijing."
"Director and lead actor Xu Zheng and other leading actors including Xiaoyanzi, Ah Sa, and Bao Bei'er made their grand appearance."
"Director Li Shaohong, Lu Chuan, actors Fan Qiaoqiao, Huang Bo, Chen Jianbin and more than 50 other stars came to support the event."
“After the screening, guests and audiences praised the quality of the film, dispelling the previous online rumor that Director Li Chen was not optimistic about the script of ‘Hong Kong Journey’.”
The internet is flooded with praises for "Hongtu".
It seems to imply that Li Chen is blind and is not willing to make any money from the money-making show.
The reviews of the celebrities are overwhelmingly positive.
Chen Jianbin: "This is the best Chinese comedy movie I have ever seen!"
Jiang Qinqin: "I have a very high sense of humour, but I was actually broken down by Xu Zheng!"
In short, all the reviews are positive, not a single negative one.
Note, there is not one!
From guests to the audience at the premiere.
Not to mention the netizens, even Li Chen felt that it was too much.
Zero negative reviews, do you think I’m a Taobao seller trying to gain experience?
Li Chen didn't let Miss Liu go because he was afraid that she would become a target.
"I'm afraid this couple has received money. How can they say such shameless words?"
“If something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on. If a mirror has only one front side, it must be a magic mirror.”
"So far, Leo has never made a mistake. Whether it is a mule or a horse will be clear on the release day."
"People make mistakes, horses stumble, and Leo is not a god. It is forgivable that he made a mistake once."
"Li Shaohong didn't comment, and neither did Huang Bo, the lead actor of Lost in Thailand. Maybe it's not that there are no negative reviews, but that all the reviews that were posted are positive ones!"
The marketing of "Hongtu" is really eye-opening.
Wang Changtian expressed his satisfaction with this.
As long as there is controversy, there will be attention, and with attention there will naturally be box office success.
Even if "Hongtu" is a piece of shit, you have to see it with your own eyes to make it count!
