Chapter 284
Although He Xiaoshuang didn't care about the box office of "And Then There Were None," because Li Xunfang was always asking her about relevant news, she couldn't help but raise a trace of interest in this film.
In the afternoon, she went to run another movie promotion announcement.
This announcement was only for the male and female leads and the director to attend together.
After she was free, He Xiaoshuang asked the director: "Do you know that 'And Then There Were None' landed in Daye Cinema's daytime slots today?"
The director glanced at her and asked back: "Are you also paying attention to the film 'And Then There Were None'?"
Also?
He Xiaoshuang's expression moved, and she nodded: "Yeah, I've been able to hear news about this film recently; it seems many people in the industry are discussing it, and it's also frequently on the hot search."
The director exclaimed: "Yeah, the marketing of this film is done too well. If it were given to us to do, our movie's results might be able to go further.
Who would have thought that the promotion of this movie was actually done by Chenxi Entertainment? An entertainment agency went to walk the promotion channel and actually managed to revive a niche, cold film—not easy!"
He Xiaoshuang said in surprise: "Chenxi Entertainment did the promotion?"
This was the first time she knew this news.
She had an impression of Chenxi Entertainment; last year, not only did they make Jin Li popular again, but they also signed Xi Sister Meng Ze.
Not only that, Xi Sister Meng Ze shone on the singer's stage, making people recognize her strength again, and she has already stood firmly in the position of a first-tier singer.
This company has two first-tier female stars, and their resources do not conflict. Although they were not cultivated by them personally, they brought great economic benefits to the company.
Chenxi Entertainment was just a third-tier small company last year, and this year it is already a leader among the second-tier.
He Xiaoshuang said: "If I had known Chenxi Entertainment had this ability, we would have handed the movie promotion to them."
The buzz about "And Then There Were None" on the internet and the national discussion were actually more than her big hit film; it would be a lie to say she wasn't envious.
However, her film belongs to a wider release, knowing more groups of people, and is more attractive to the general public.
And "And Then There Were None" belongs to precise vertical placement; those who know it are limited to a certain range, but netizens discuss it very actively.
The director said: "Since 'And Then There Were None' officially landed in the daytime schedule, the box office results will probably be very outstanding. It was able to contribute so much box office in the late-night slots, and it absolutely won't be bad in the daytime.
I have seen this film; although it was filmed by a newcomer director, the work is very mature, worthy of being the descendant of a famous director."
He paused and pondered: "I think this film might be able to win awards."
He Xiaoshuang was a bit shocked: "What award? Is the acting of the male and female leads so amazing?"
The director smiled: "Not the male and female leads; the director side should be able to win some awards. With results, status, and connections, winning an award is easy."
He Xiaoshuang learned for the first time that "And Then There Were None" seemed to be even more powerful than she imagined.
But why would Li Xunfang be so concerned about this film? Could it be that the female lead of this film was looking for her to act at the beginning?
Jin Li and the others didn't know the industry's evaluation of this film. After they completed the task, they received the reward given by the program team, which was the movie ticket for "And Then There Were None"!
Seeing movie tickets is not strange.
Late-night slots, well, it's not like she hasn't gone to see them.
Jin Li just glanced at it and put it down. Instead, Qiguan Mingzhu looked at it seriously for a few times, and like Watson discovering a blind spot, she was greatly surprised.
"Eh, it's actually a daytime schedule... Didn't 'And Then There Were None' only get released in the late-night slots?"
"Daytime schedule? Impossible!" Jin Li was the first to deny it and picked it up to look again.
After looking at it repeatedly for several times, she finally confirmed it was a daytime schedule, and the shock on her face was no less than the others.
Gu Cheng asked: "Looking at your appearance, you still don't know?"
Jin Li shook her head: "I don't know. It went online today, so it should have been arranged yesterday. I don't look at phone messages much when filming variety shows, and my phone has been off from yesterday until now."
She thought of something and said: "I do know that Sister Fang said the late-night box office of this film is good, and the crew has been fighting with the cinema to arrange screenings in the daytime."
Speaking of this, Jin Li couldn't help but bloom with a big smile, warm and bright.
"I didn't expect them to really fight for it!"
What the program team wanted was this kind of surprise effect!
The camera crew hurriedly gave Jin Li's face a close-up, recording her brilliant smile.
The afternoon filming of "Leisurely Slow Life" was to go to the cinema to film.
After getting the movie tickets, Jin Li opened her phone and asked Sui Lingfang, only then did she know what was going on, and at the same time, she also knew that the tickets in the program team were booked by Mr. Xiao.
Sui Lingfang said happily: "Today's 20 movie tickets have already been digested, but tomorrow's 20 tickets haven't been decided yet.
Since you have time, why don't you log in to the blog and forward it, letting interested netizens near the cinema come over to draw prizes."
Jin Li immediately agreed.
She logged into the blog, immediately forwarded the company's latest official blog, and wrote:
Jin Li: 【Fans who are interested nearby, come and collect your movie tickets. You only need to forward this blog to automatically participate in the lucky draw. The draw will be held tonight, and thousands of "And Then There Were None" movie tickets will be given away for free!】
Fans responded enthusiastically immediately.
【This company is really worth dealing with, actually giving away movie tickets!】
【I have a friend in the industry who told me that these tickets were all booked by the president of Chenxi Entertainment, a total of 40 screenings, all given away for free as benefits!】
【Tsk... a small broken company is actually so generous?】
【I really want movie tickets; is there any chance to give away a copy of the original book? I've always heard the name of this book, but haven't had the chance to see it.】
Jin Li was just about to put down her phone when she suddenly scrolled past this comment, and she immediately replied: 【Give, give, give, give them all away, I'll donate 100,000 copies!】
She took a screenshot and sent it to Sister Fang, letting Sister Fang help her handle the donation matters afterward.
Sui Lingfang had a headache after seeing the message she sent, but she was also very gratified.
No matter what, her own artist is also working hard to operate, trying her best to liven up the box office of "And Then There Were None."
She replied: 【Why let you send it yourself? The company will send the 100,000 books; you just work hard to run announcements, the company will handle everything】
Jin Li just wanted to reply that there was no need to be so polite, but who would have thought that Sister Fang would send another message in the next second.
Sui Lingfang: 【With Mr. Xiao here, you don't need to interfere; Mr. Xiao has covered all these books!】
Jin Li didn't speak and sent an emoji over.
【Thank you God of Wealth. jpg】
"Xiao Lin, hurry up, we're going to miss the opening of the movie!"
Several young people rushed into the cinema's ticket gate and found that in front of them, there were six other people also preparing to check tickets.
Those six people looked quite good in figure from the back, but unfortunately, they wore hats and masks, so their faces couldn't be seen.
If they took them off, they must also be handsome men and beautiful women.
A student whispered: "I discovered that fans who like this film 'And Then There Were None' are all quite good-looking. The school beauty of my school is promoting this film in her circle of friends; she is Jin Li's die-hard fan."
The student called Xiao Lin said: "I thought those who like this film were all literary youths."
"No, those who like commercial films can also watch this drama; they said it's quite cool when the judge reveals all the crimes at the end!"
Quickly checking the tickets, this group of students rushed into the screening hall.
Jin Li and the others fell to the back, walking slowly, not fighting with them.
Qiguan Mingzhu held Jin Li's hand and whispered: "The evaluation of your film is quite good; many people said so when we checked the tickets."
Jin Li nodded: "The reputation on the internet is very good; many people come for the reputation, and of course, there are also some book fans."
A thoughtful look flashed in Qiguan Mingzhu's eyes: "It seems that changing the original work doesn't just mean harvesting a lot of scolding. If the original work is changed well, it kills everything!"
Jin Li shook her head: "It's quite difficult. How to balance the original work and the plot after adaptation is a topic that every director and screenwriter must explore, and actors must also try to find a balance in it.
Now many adapted dramas are still scolded more, but it cannot be denied that becoming film and television can expand the influence of IP, and having the buzz of the original work can also quickly go out of the circle."
Jin Li asked: "Why, are you interested in this aspect?"
Qiguan Mingzhu both shook her head and nodded: "I'm quite interested in the adaptation part, but not adapting novels. You also know that I like watching hot-blooded comics; how about I adapt comics into film and television dramas?"
Jin Li said with interest: "The country prefers adapting novels into film and television, and rarely adapts comics into film and television, but you can try, write a plan first, and let your company help you consult."
Mentioning the company, Qiguan Mingzhu's expression clearly faded, "Let's talk about it later."
Not only was Jin Li fighting on the front line of the movie, but the editor-in-chief of "Film and Television Home," Bai Zhizi, also led her own editor to squat in Daye Cinema.
She insisted on interviewing the audience who came in the afternoon, asking them what movie they were watching.
Unexpectedly, five out of ten people came to see "And Then There Were None," and the other five came specifically to see the big hit film.
The editor was organizing the interview manuscript in the coffee shop on the side, while Bai Zhizi ambushed next to the cinema's ticket machine, photographing the seat reservation situation of each screening.
After Bai Zhizi finished photographing, she went to the coffee shop and heard the editor say: "I feel that 'And Then There Were None' is probably really going to explode this time. Five people came to watch the film, three were attracted by the reputation, and the remaining two came for the actors."
Bai Zhizi said: "The seat reservation situation I photographed, those big hit movie tickets were only half booked, but 'And Then There Were None' was almost full, and even the late-night seats were full."
The editor exclaimed: "It's the same as the trend of the big hit film we investigated at the beginning of the summer file; its box office will definitely explode in the next few days."
Bai Zhizi thought for a moment and said decisively: "Write the interview now, just say we predict that the box office of this film can break 10 million a day!"
The editor was a bit surprised: "10 million?! Wouldn't that be too risky?"
If all major cinemas arrange daytime schedule, then it is probably possible.
But only Daye Cinema has a schedule, other cinemas... wait, the editor's expression paused, other cinemas' late-night slots didn't take this drama off the shelves either!
Bai Zhizi said very affirmatively: "'And Then There Were None' has a box office potential of 5 million in the late-night slots, and now it also has daytime slots, and three screenings a day; this amount of scheduling is not small, and breaking 10 million is not difficult."
She smiled slyly: "Don't forget, the special cinemas are also constantly contributing to the box office. When the time comes, we will also count the box office of the special cinemas. Even if it really doesn't reach 10 million, it won't be much worse."
When encountering a hot spot, you must strike decisively, so that you can make the name of "Film and Television Home" go out.
The editor immediately said: "I'll write it now."
Bai Zhizi thought for a moment; she not only wanted to post on the official blog, but also prepared to buy a hot search, and also synchronize the video account to do box office prediction promotion for "And Then There Were None."
As long as the prediction is successful, the magazine will definitely be able to gain millions of fans. These active attention numbers are all money in the internet era.
At the same time.
At the entrance of a cinema, a special audience also sneaked in.
This person was none other than Lian Baozhi.
To tell the truth, she came here specifically to learn.
She had scrolled past many segments of "And Then There Were None" on the internet, especially that wonderful hanging scene of Jin Li.
Although many people said it was synthesized by special effects, Lian Baozhi herself had filmed dramas, and no matter how she looked at it, she felt it was filmed for real.
If it was really filmed for real, then it is very! Not! Easy!
Although she has no dramas to film now, the acting class hasn't stopped. She shared this segment of Jin Li with the teacher, and after the teacher watched it, he praised it as amazing.
The teacher said: "Do you know where she is amazing? She is amazing in that she overcame the instinct of the body."
"If I film a cliff-jumping scene for you, although you know it's fake, when the actor is filming the fall, the body will often be unconsciously stiff, unable to perform the real fall."
"Top actors can substitute the character's state of heart like dead ashes, so they overcome instinct and film it very perfectly. The more dangerous the scene, the more it requires faith in the performance."
Lian Baozhi couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, if one doesn't enter the scene, but can still film it very perfectly, why is that?"
The teacher pondered for a while and said: "Maybe this actor has already put life and death aside, so she doesn't care whether it's survival or death."
Lian Baozhi didn't understand, but it didn't hinder her wanting to learn.
This is a movie.
Movies have the texture of movies, and the charm of the big screen is something many small screens cannot bring.
There are many aesthetics in light, shadow, and composition that can only be expressed vividly through the big screen.
Lian Baozhi didn't want to miss any details, so she decided to come to the cinema to watch it herself.
Before, there were only late-night slots, and she really couldn't spare the time. Now that it has been changed to daytime screenings, Lian Baozhi got a ticket through private connections.
She sneaked into the screening hall, and the movie had already started playing.
Lian Baozhi sat upright and watched seriously.
In the evening, "Leisurely Slow Life" ended its cinema trip and returned to the hotel for a night chat.
During the afternoon filming, the program team didn't open the live streaming room at all, making netizens very curious.
This night chat opened a live stream, and while the stars were chatting, they were also drawn by the program team to answer questions from the barrage.
However, the questions drawn were a bit sharp, actually related to love.
However, it was only sharp for Sanyuetian, while the sisters were very calm.
Qiguan Mingzhu said: "Talk, why not talk? If we don't talk, we'll be old. I still want to enjoy my youth."
She added: "If I meet someone suitable, I will want to talk."
Jin Li also said: "Me too, if I meet someone suitable, I'll talk. I don't reject love, as for the lover side..."
She thought seriously and said: "I don't have any requirements for him, as long as I like him."
After the two sisters answered, it finally came to Sanyuetian.
Seeing the microphone handed to Yan Xingdong, the live streaming room suddenly inserted an advertisement:
"For blind dates and making friends, go to Meimiao Jiayuan Network, meet like-minded people, make life partners, interest AI friend selection, artificial intelligence big data screening, AI understands you better than you..."
