Chapter 1730 "Husband" (4)

Generally, such activities must be notified in advance. Celebrities have full schedules, and some popular stars may even have schedules that last until the next year or the year after that.

Xia Siyu participated in the promotional activities of "Poppy" last year, but it was only in China and did not go to Nanyang for activities.

Although the market in Southeast Asia is far from comparable to that in China, there is a lot of enthusiasm for "The Hunt" and especially for Xia Siyu. On the contrary, the No. 1 comedy film received a mediocre response in the Nanyang market because some of the jokes may only be understood by domestic audiences.

Xia Siyu didn't object at all. He asked about the time. Basically, he visited one country or region a day. It would take four or five days to visit the Lion City, Coconut City, and Saigon, places with a large Chinese population or a large influence from the Chinese-speaking community.

Including the round trip time, it would probably take about a week.

Originally, she was preparing to work on "Sunrise" during this period of time. Now her promotional activities for "Sunrise" have been temporarily put on hold and she just has time to go overseas.

As for visas, she doesn't need to think about these. Originally, most of these countries issued visas on arrival to China. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the epidemic. Because of the epidemic, you have to pay more attention when going back and forth. Even if Xia Siyu can open a green channel and does not need to be quarantined for so long, he will not be able to escape the several rounds of nucleic acid each time.

She turned to look at Bo Yan: "Should I go?"

Of course you can go, but you can also not go. Director Ji called her to make an appointment and just asked her to help promote it. But if there is an epidemic or other reasons, something will happen, and maybe she won't be able to be in the country when "Sunrise" is released.

Bo Yan barely hesitated: "Go ahead."

He also added: "Can I go too?"

Xia Siyu was a little confused. She thought that this guy was jealous. Gee, now she is popular, right? How many wild bees and butterflies will pounce on her, and not only are her love rivals male, but also female. These days, homosexuality is not safe either.

"Hey, this is it. I have to report this to Director Ji."

Bo Yan also nodded: "It is indeed necessary to report it, and I also plan to see him."

Xia Siyu had a strange look on her face. Was she trying to get in touch with Director Ji through her so that they could work together in future movies?

"You want to cooperate with him?" Xia Siyu said, "Want to get to know him through me?"

Although they are a couple, not all of them have exactly the same connections. In the past, both of them were used to fighting alone. Although Bo Yan introduced his mentor Yu Fenfei and senior brother Sun Wujiu to Xia Siyu, the drama "Sunrise" was also his. But Director Ji is Xia Siyu's own resource.

For stars like them, sometimes resources and connections are equal to artistic life. In many scenes, A is suitable, but B is also not bad. When two people have similar status, qualifications, and acting skills, of course they will give priority to those they are familiar with. No matter how good your acting skills are, you won't be able to get out without a script suitable for you.

"I want to cooperate with him. But not to make a movie together. Of course, filming is okay, but it is not the first thing that needs to be solved." Bo Yan said: "I heard that Director Ji is very good at overseas distribution. "God" "Capture" and "Poppy" are selling very well in Nanyang. You know this, right? He has his own distribution channels. I went here this time to see "Sunrise" and some other TV series and movies produced by our company. , distributed to Nanyang through him."

Although the ticket warehouses in Southeast Asia are not good, no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. Just like "Catcher", although the box office in China is only 1.3 billion, but together with several overseas countries, it will be a solid 2 billion.

He is a fool if he doesn't make money. Now he is not only an actor, but also a director and a partner of a film and television company. Of course he wants to maximize his profits. Even if you give the middleman a little more commission, it is still better than trying to run the channels yourself and end up not making any money if the distribution is not good.

"But if you go there too, what if something goes wrong here? It's less than two weeks until "Sunrise" is released."

Although Director Ji has obtained a green channel, as long as he has a nucleic acid certificate, he does not need to be quarantined for a long time when entering or leaving non-medium and high-risk areas overseas. But what if?

The epidemic has changed the normal life of many people, especially related to international exchanges.

"In this case, I'll have a chat with him first. Overseas distribution will have to be done sooner rather than later."

As for overseas affairs, Bo Yan doesn't want to run away, it's just that he really doesn't have the energy. He has to act, direct, and manage the company. Even if he grows eight hands, he won't be busy enough. Director Ji's place is a mom-and-pop shop. He is in charge of directing, and his wife is in charge of production and overseas distribution. Their joint agent is in charge.

So, three days later, Boyan and Xia Siyu went to Yancheng Airport together to fly to Hong Kong together.

The first promotional event was held right here in Tsim Sha Tsui. Director Ji is originally a Hong Kong investor and has always done well at the box office here. Last year, Xia Siyu knew that "Poppy" would not win the Golden Moon Award, but she came here to show her respect, so her impression here was not bad. Director Ji invited to be the host of the event, who happened to be the same person who interviewed Xia Siyu for last year's Golden Moon Awards.

After half a year of not seeing each other, Xia Siyu hasn't changed much. It's just that the reporters here have always been tricky, including Shang Feier, and they were all photographed here. Xia Siyu is more confident than she was six months ago. The confidence does not come from the good box office, but from her own state of mind.

The box office, whether it is a hit or not, and even whether it wins awards, are all indifferent to her.

This was her first live interview for the roadshow of "The Detective". The reporters first asked her about the content of the movie and the details of the shooting: "How were the martial arts moves shot at that time?"

"It was shot like this." Xia Siyu always gave a straight answer to reporters who were sarcastic and twisted.

"What about jumping off the cliff?"

"Just jump."

What kind of answer is this? Shouldn't she say something about whether it was hard or not? Shouldn't she say something about her determination? Twenty meters, four or five floors high, is a height that can really kill people.

"Didn't you say you were injured?"

"Isn't this normal? I didn't practice this specifically. But fortunately, it's nothing serious, so you can see that I'm alive and well now."

"I heard that he was also hospitalized."

"I just lay there for a few days. I jumped better. I did a triple jump in the middle and the landing point was right on the mat." She said it lightly, without any ups and downs. People like this must have failed in writing essays when they were young!

"Then you and Bo Yan..."

"Oh, he's here too." After saying so many things, this one sentence instantly ignited the topic of the entire cinema.
