Rebirth: Don't fight for gold

Chapter 50

Miao Yang got his wish and won the title of Best Actor. So far, the crew of "Northern Tune in Southern Tune" has won five nominations and won three trophies, setting a record for the most awards for domestic films in foreign exhibitions.

Several people did not stop in Sri Lanka and returned to China the next day.

Before returning, Yue Le went to return the clothes and shoes, and invited Alan and Hama to have a meal together. When they said goodbye, they gave each of them a small gift.Allen also participated in the awards ceremony, full of praise for Yue Le's performance, always boasting about his good vision, foresight and so on, wishing to sign Yue Le to their company as the company's queen model.Yue Le knew that Alan was exaggerating. His figure was not bad among ordinary people, and he was not inferior to anyone among celebrities, but compared with professional models, there was still a certain gap.

This point of self-knowledge, Yue Le has always kept it in mind after his rebirth.

"North Tune" has already obtained the screening license before participating in the exhibition. Director Jiang is very smart to use the Sri Lanka Film Festival as the biggest means of publicity. Photos of a few people walking the red carpet at the festival, clips about the crew during Srika’s live broadcast were edited and made into a short promotional video, and all the news on the Internet and on TV were the crew of "Northern Tune in Southern Tune".Large-scale promotional posters were also posted in conspicuous places in the cinema. The schedule had already been booked, and the tickets were sold out as soon as the premiere time was announced.

Yue Le went straight back to his rented room. The movie will be released soon. His role as supporting actor has been completed. Director Jiang's publicity methods and abilities are truly astonishing, and his timing is quite subtle.He made a big splash abroad, but after returning to China, he directly arranged for the movie to be released, and he was unwilling to even participate in a simple interview, let alone those entertainment programs on satellite TV, which were low-key, mysterious and cool.

But the audience just likes this, and it can be seen from the leaked trailer that this is a well-made film, guaranteed by the Srika award, with the fame of Director Jiang and Miao Yang, and Yue Le With such a brilliant newcomer, the audience is full of expectations for this film.

In fact, ordinary people do not have high requirements for watching movies. The plot is logical, the story can be told completely, and the picture is good enough.What's annoying is that, whether it's a TV series or a movie in China recently, the early publicity work is overwhelming. The publicity starts from the casting, and every day intentionally or unintentionally hypes the shocking news. Selling rot, who is not compatible with whom, which actor is playing a big name, etc., etc., even the other half of the actor is not spared, some old stories of old sesame seeds and rotten millet are also pulled out and repeatedly hyped, which makes the audience feel that A little anticipation polished.

The audience paid money to enter the movie theater with only a little expectation left. As a result, after two hours, the storyline was so cloudy that it was impossible to watch it.

I don't know what I'm talking about, I just saw a few actors jumping there.If you spend half of the hype on filming, you will be worthy of the audience.

It is really rare to see a director as kind as Director Jiang. He told everyone when the film was launched, and then told everyone when it started to be released. There was no publicity in between.Even after winning three awards from Srika, she kept a low profile.Yue Le looked at these words of praise for Director Jiang on the Internet, and couldn't help laughing: Director Jiang is low-key, the key is that he has the capital to be low-key.

But seeing those words that praised him, Yue Le couldn't laugh anymore, he couldn't help but blush even though he was always calm, why didn't he find that the fans were so enthusiastic in his previous life: Those who shouted to give him monkeys and pick up soap for him Boys and girls, is what you say true?

With so many enthusiastic fans, Yue Le asked himself, if he could take care of every one of them, he would be too busy!

Three days later, Yue Le received a call from Director Zhu, saying that the post-processing of the "Parking Lot" crew was about the same, and it was time to promote it.

The same director, Director Zhu's status is not as good as Director Jiang's, and the connections and resources in the circle are even worse than Director Jiang's. Naturally, he can't handle the publicity like Director Jiang like lightly.He looked for resources everywhere, big and small, as long as he was willing to promote movies, he could get access to them, even some vulgar entertainment programs.

Yue Le was a little reluctant, not because he didn't cooperate with the promotion, but because the reputation of the entertainment programs Director Zhu found was too bad, so it was fine to make fun of the guests, and there were all kinds of amazing clips that would be released in the promotional film, each It's kind of embarrassing, and it can always cause a big battle among fans.

It's inconvenient for him to say these words directly to Director Zhu. At this time, it shows the benefits of the agent. Having an agent to ease in the middle can save a lot of trouble.But Yue Le's manager, Lin Li, is still on vacation at the moment. Yue Le contacted Lin Li after he came back. Lin Li said that he went to Tibet with Wu Mo to receive the baptism of the gods, and he would not be back until a few days later.

For this kind of love-oriented person, Yue Le has nothing to do with him. He can only tell Director Zhu tactfully, whether he should accept some promotions selectively, don't follow all of them, or allow other members of the crew to participate in some programs.

Director Zhu was very embarrassed, saying that he couldn't make it clear on the phone, and half an hour later, he appeared in Yue Le's living room.

"Lele, to be honest, these promotions came to me after you showed up at the Srika Film Festival. Some time ago, I was using those previous relationships to try to promote them, but those people didn't care I, including some stations that invite us to be on the show now. To put it bluntly, you are willing to let us promote it because of your reputation. It is normal in the circle to praise the high and step down. I thought of it before, but always I think there are still some people who pay attention to affection. I know you are very low-key, and some programs are really vulgar, and it is quite difficult for you to go on." Director Zhu said sincerely, but also very sad. After he came out of the hospital, he and A few people in the company began to look for resources everywhere. After all, they were well-known in the circle, and they thought that they could always find some connections by sacrificing their old faces, but the reality was so cruel.Just when they were desperate, Yue Le Hengkong appeared in Srika, and his perfect performance immediately made him the most popular figure in the media, even more popular than Jiang Dao and Miao Yang.The media tried their best to contact Yue Le, but unfortunately they couldn't find anyone. Director Jiang didn't give them a chance at all, and Yue Le hadn't signed the company yet, and a half-hearted manager was still on vacation far away, so they couldn't be contacted at all. .

Therefore, the media shifted their strategy, specifically not to invite Yue Le, but to find another crew of him - "Parking Lot".At that time, the stills of Yue Le and Chen Yawei had been exposed, and with the fact that Director Zhu had been moving around recently, the media knew that Yue Le had starred in "Parking Lot" and was still the leading actor.This kind of fresh meat seems to be the hot spot that the major media are most chasing. They vaguely probed Zhang's tone. The strange thing is that Zhang, who originally wanted to block Director Zhu, shut up miraculously this time, and his ambiguous attitude made people Can't figure it out.Once one family starts contacting Director Zhu, the other families can no longer sit still. Being able to invite Yue Le is a guarantee of ratings and a symbol of strength, and no one wants to lag behind.

Therefore, Director Zhu, who has always liked directing innocent love, felt the cruelty of the adult world, and also endured the torture of ice and fire.

Director Zhu is quite old, and it would be embarrassing for him to change his personality immediately, so he could only sigh and come to find Yue Le: Because the only condition for the media to invite him to participate in the program is that Yue Le must come, and he was not mentioned. director.

Yue Le flipped through the three-page publicity arrangement, and his head started to hurt. After a long time of trouble, the few programs that Director Zhu mentioned on the phone just now were considered good, most of which he had never heard of. programme.

Yue Le endured the pain and finished reading all the arrangements. He closed the promotion list and said in a deep voice, "Director Zhu, it's not that I don't cooperate, but this promotion is really beyond my ability. Even if I'm a trapeze artist, I can't keep up." Finish these shows."

Director Zhu nodded again and again, "Actually, we should talk to Lin Li first, let him filter these arrangements, and then show you."

Yue Le waved his hand. He didn't want to bring up the topic of Lin Li for the time being. He had a mental twitch to think that Lin Li would give up on love and concentrate on being a manager by his side. It's useless to regret it now, so he can only persevere. Scalp yourself, director Zhu is not a big mouth anyway, he knows what can be said and what can't be said, "Director Zhu, I don't want to say anything, you must think that I don't cooperate with the crew's promotion and play big names. In fact, before I agreed to shoot "Parking Lot", the filming of "Southern Accents and Northern Dialects" was already finished. I didn't mention to you at that time that I took director Jiang's film, but I didn't want to embarrass you too much because of your financial pressure. You I have part of the reasons for leaving the Zhang family. I am very grateful to you. But I cannot agree to such an outrageous request. This is not only for my consideration, but also for your consideration. You left the Zhang family to make better films , instead of just filming a "Parking Lot" and stopping."

Director Zhu was extremely guilty of being told by Yue Le that he took a lot of advantage from Yue Le in terms of remuneration, and the shooting conditions were also very difficult. Yue Le didn't complain at all, and cooperated with him all the time, even he always favored Chen Yawei, Let Yue Le compromise so much for Chen Yawei, Yue Le didn't say anything.

It was the first time that Director Zhu did such unkind things as treating the other party as a little transparent when talking about the salary, and using the other party's reputation when promoting.

But now he is really desperate and helpless, he can only count on Yue Le to come to the rescue.
