Chapter 514
In Minghu Culture in October, big events and big news came one after another.
First, the second round of "Legend of the White Snake" hit the air, and then the company held a press conference, announcing in a high-profile manner that the rights to broadcast the third and fourth rounds had all been sold, and previewed the collection of videotapes, VCDs and DVDs for this TV series. version, which will be launched in succession at the beginning of next year.
Approaching, the same soundtrack of this TV series surpassed the album of a certain singer, even including Zhang Chang, who sold well, and directly parachuted to the top of the Dongguan Bookstore sales list, and before the sales of this album completely exploded. , Rose Power has already started running around to promote the release of the new album.
Of course, Liao Liao's return with great honor and her ability to respond decisively to a potential accident in the airport reception hall are destined to become people's gossip stories for quite a long time .
However, when another piece of news broke out, this series of news was instantly overshadowed.
On October 17th, the entertainment section of "Suntian Evening News" first revealed that it was rumored that Yu Bojun, the guitarist of the Four Great Beauties Band, had quit, and the Four Great Beauties Band was about to disband.
As soon as the news came out, the singing world was shocked.
The Four Great Beauties Band is originally a band combination attracted by sudden surprises. The identities of the members of the band are also showing their identities to all the fans who love this band all the time: this It's just a temporary band formed by a few idle guys who thought it was fun.
However, since its establishment, since its first appearance and singing at He Runqing's concert that year, this band has quickly ignited the fire of rock and roll in China with a gesture of much-anticipated attitude. Up to now, with this band The evocative performance at the Spring Festival Gala last year, with the popularity of "Once Upon a Time in You" throughout East Asia and Southeast Asia, they are stepping up to the altar step by step, and have not only been recognized as the top hall level in China today The rock band, and its influence, has already gone out of the country, and it is already a famous band in the rock music scene of the whole world.
Originally, considering their habit of releasing albums, it is already October, and everyone is looking forward to their third album, which will probably be released at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, but who knows, the news everyone is waiting for, but It was Yu Bojun who withdrew, but the Four Beauties were about to disband.
In an instant, the entire singing world almost exploded.
Countless reporters surrounded Minghu Culture overnight with a frenzied posture, no less than the number who picked up Liao Liao at the time.
On October 19, Qi Jie had to hold an impromptu press conference on behalf of Minghu Culture and the Four Beauties Band. At the press conference, she personally confirmed that Yu Bojun would indeed quit the Four Beauties Band, but Whether the band will disband is still unknown.
When answering questions from many reporters, she also smiled and denied many speculations.
There was no conflict between Yu Bojun and the other members of the band, Li Qian, Cao Zhan, Wang Huaiyu, Liao Liao, etc. The reason why he chose to quit was only a matter of personal choice.
At the same time, at the press conference, she also canvassed votes for Yu Bojun: Yu Bojun will not only quit the Big Four Beauties, but also give up the guide tube in his hand, so "Once Upon a Time You" will be his last album, and "Scallion Love", which will be released on Friday, October 22, will be his last movie. I hope everyone can support the movie after it is released.
In addition, Rose Power, who is doing shows in various places and participating in fan interactions, was repeatedly asked about Yu Bojun's withdrawal from the Four Beauties when they were interviewed and interacting with fans. When several girls mentioned Yu Bojun, they were all One bite at a time, Brother Yu, I miss the time when everyone made music together, ate and chatted together, and in the end, it was inevitable to help Yu Bojun solicit votes: On the day of the release on October 22, we will definitely go to support Brother Yu, I hope everyone You can also support it!
This incident happened suddenly, but the subsequent trend gradually stabilized, because it did not have the gossip that is necessary for the hot gossip, so naturally, Yu Bojun's departure ushered in the heartfelt blessings of the fans and looked forward to him Return to the singing world and the stage at a convenient time.
Of course, the good news is that "Love of Scallion" became popular before it was released.
When being interviewed by reporters, almost every singer interviewed would praise Yu Bojun first without hesitation, and then say that they have not received invitations for the premiere, but as long as the invitations are sent , I will definitely join in. Even if there is no invitation card, I plan to donate a few tickets after the movie is released to see off such an excellent guitarist as Yu Bojun.
And even when the reporter threw these questions to Xiao Aiguo, the former lead singer of the Flying Band, Xiao Aiguo hesitated for a moment, and said, "It is said that Yu Bojun is a nice person, and I hope to have a chance to drink together."
As for the fans of the Four Great Beauties, including Li Qian's fans, including Yu Bojun's own fans, and of course those fans who have also become active under the call of many singers from the Minghu Culture series, they also all expressed their interest. Post a post on the forum, saying that I will definitely watch this movie. There are even a lot of people living in small cities, because they found out that the film’s release range is limited, and they also called on everyone to form a group to watch this film in a certain place and support Director Yu!
…………
Originally "Scallion Love" was released, Yu Bojun didn't plan to hold any premiere. His original plan was to invite some friends over to a leading cinema in Shuntianfu, a subsidiary of Yu's Films, and invite some well-known film critics.
The film was registered for Cannes, but it was not shortlisted, so Yu Bojun simply gave up his desire to win the award and put it directly on the screen at the end of October after the end of the summer.
It is impossible for niche literary films to compete with those commercial blockbusters at the box office. Even if they are released in the off-season of the film market, they will not get too many release canvases, and they can only sell slowly on a long-term basis. Therefore, this is also inevitable. choose.
And he discussed with Li Qian, the original plan was to wait until the movie was released for a while, and then slowly reveal the fact that he was about to quit the Four Great Beauties, not wanting to cause too much trouble.
But he didn't expect that although he had only sung for two years, he was still only a guitarist in the band. To be honest, when he first formed the band, his guitar was very strong, and many chords were repeated by Cao Zhan. Taught him, but now that he is leaving, there are so many fans who are reluctant to let him go, and they all want to stay. His departure as a little guitarist can actually cause such a big storm in the domestic music scene.
When everyone got together to drink again, for the first time, he actually cried.
And wept so hard.
Recalling the past few years of acquaintance again, recalling the pain and joy of being in the band together, everyone talking and laughing together, he couldn't hold back his tears.
It's all right now, "Love of Scallion" became popular before it was shown. Many theaters originally said that they could only look at your Yu Shao's face, risked it to lose money, and gave you a few canvases symbolically. Now they all say that considering you Thanks to Yu Shao's strong appeal, we decided to double the canvas for you! Many people even complained: Brother, we have known each other for a long time, you have such a good way of publicity, why didn't you say it earlier, you want to see your brother make a fool of yourself, don't you? It's not interesting enough!
Yu Bojun couldn't laugh or cry.
But the matter has come to this point, he has no choice but to follow the trend.
So many fans expressed that they want to support a movie ticket, you can't let people can't buy a ticket even if they want to, can you? So many celebrities in the pop music world have said that as long as they get the invitations, they will definitely go to join them. You can't pretend that you don't hear, and don't even give an invitation, right?
Therefore, he had no choice but to arrange for someone to make an emergency contact, and got the private space of the No. 1 Theater Affiliated to the Shuntian Grand Theater, and planned to use the large theater there that can accommodate nearly 800 people to watch the movie together to hold "Love of Green Onion" The premiere of the film—yes, the premiere that was not originally planned has already had to be held.
Acquaintances and friends in the music industry and film industry, including some well-known film critics who are already planned, plus contacting the Fan Club of the Four Great Beauties, giving away some tickets, and inviting some enthusiastic fans to come to join in, of course , and part of the free tickets for the Minghu Culture Fan Club is indispensable.
As good friends, Cao Zhan, Li Qian, Wang Huaiyu, and Liao Liao, who has just returned from abroad for a few days and has not rested, all followed him to work hard, making arrangements for the premiere. everything of.
In the end, Li Qian even deliberately took out fifty tickets and ran back to Suncheon Film Academy in person. The old dean, the old director, the teachers and old professors who had taught him in the past, all became his distribution targets. , repeatedly warmly invited this group of teachers who usually don't talk much, but as long as they speak, they must have a certain influence in the film and television industry to attend the premiere and have a look.
Originally, according to Yu Bojun's past reputation and the "superficial and vulgar" path he took, many professors and teachers at Shuntian Film Academy were probably not very willing to support him, but Li Qian In order to save face, this kid is so good this time, as if begging his grandpa to tell his grandma, even the old professors who are usually difficult to talk, nodded and agreed to go and have a look.
Of course, there are a few old men who speak very hard: look at it, if it's not good, don't blame me for scolding! If you're afraid that I'll start scolding you, just take it back and don't invite me!
Li Qian smiled wryly, but he still wanted to invite.
For Yu Bojun, as long as these characters go, they will save face. Even if he scolds the bloody head later, it can also be understood as the care of the elders, and as a kind of support and supervision for the rising stars.
In terms of box office and influence, this group of people has almost no influence on the domestic film market, but in terms of academic status, even if it is as good as Liu Chengzhang, even if it is Qin Wei, one of the top three domestic film directors. , Zhao Meicheng and Du Weiyun did not dare to underestimate these old gentlemen.
This is the case in the art circle. Holding the box office in your hand is certainly a right to speak, but it is definitely not an authority. Even if you hold power in your hand, there are still some people who don’t care about the chair under your buttocks.
On the other hand, there may be an old man walking alone in a green shirt and cloth shoes on campus. You don’t look amazing, he is not an official, and he has no money, but he is enough to sit down for a meeting. The qualifications point to the noses of the officials of the Ministry of Culture to approve the incomplete ones.
These people who are scholars are actually authorities.
And "Scallion Love" will most likely be the last film directed by Yu Bojun. Whether he praises it or scolds him, he hopes to let Yu Bojun get as much as possible.
There are even many things that Yu Bojun himself has not thought of until now.
In the end, except for a few people who didn't give face, or those who couldn't go because of something, there were fifty tickets left, and there were more than twenty tickets left. Give it to Lu Lingxi, begging and praying, please help send it to a group of teachers in the college or brothers and sisters who are studying for postgraduates and PhDs. Please come and support me when the time comes.
To a certain extent, this group of teachers who are now the same age as Lu Lingxi, and this group of brothers and sisters who are currently studying graduate students and PhD students, will become the next batch of academic authorities.
Lu Lingxi didn't even hesitate to call, just took the ticket and nodded in agreement.
…………
Not long after Li Qian left, Lu Ping arrived.
There seemed to be a hint of displeasure.
After sitting down and talking a few words, he couldn't help but ask, "I heard from Qin Jingjing that you recently borrowed a sum of money for her? 1.2 million?"
Lu Lingxi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, "I told you all this? It seems that your relationship is improving rapidly?"
Lu Ping choked for a moment, but quickly explained: "It's not what you think. A few days ago, Qin Jingjing suddenly sent me a text message, saying thank you. I asked what was going on, and I don’t know why she suddenly wanted to thank me. I had time yesterday, so I asked her. She insisted on asking me to dinner, and then she told me about it. I told her then , You didn't ask me to borrow money."
Lu Lingxi smiled and nodded, "Well, I heard that she went to look for me last night, and she also knew that she had done something wrong, and she even asked me to apologize. Then... then it's all right?"
"Are you okay?" Lu Ping choked again.
But after hesitating for a moment, he still took a deep breath, let himself relax a little, and said with a smile: "Actually, Senior Sister, you need money, so you can say hello to me. It's hard to say if it's too much. One or two million dollars, I'll give you money." There are still."
Lu Lingxi laughed when she heard the words, "Why, there are people like you? I wish someone would come to ask you to borrow money? Are you stupid?" As she spoke, she laughed again, "Don't ask about this, I'll find you A friend of mine borrowed it, and they don’t need the money anyway. Besides, I borrowed it for Jingjing, not for myself.”
Lu Ping lowered his head and smiled, then raised his head again, and suddenly asked, "Is it Li Qian?"
Lu Lingxi looked up at him and smiled, "I've said it all, so don't worry about it. It's up to me who to borrow or not to borrow."
Hearing this, Lu Ping was about to say something else, but suddenly noticed that Lu Lingxi seemed to be counting something all the time, and it looked familiar, like...a movie ticket.
He squinted his eyes, suppressed all the words in his heart, and asked with a smile: "Someone gave away tickets? How many at once?"
Lu Lingxi smiled and nodded, "Well, I want to help attract people to the new movie directed by Yu Bojunyu!" While speaking, she waved a stack of more than twenty movie tickets in her hand, and said with a smile: " Probably interest."
With this sentence, Lu Ping is completely sure.
After a pause, he smiled, "The matter of Yu Bojun's resignation from the music industry has caused a lot of trouble recently. This wave of publicity is a coincidence, and it is beautiful!"
While talking, he looked at Lu Lingxi, "Then give me a ticket too, I'll give him a show, shouldn't I be qualified?"
Lu Lingxi was surprised at first when he heard the words, and then his thoughts turned, as if he had thought of something, he smiled, stretched out his hand without hesitation, took out a ticket, handed it over, and said, "Okay, I'm just worried that I don't know how to give it to you. Who is it! If Director Lu Da is willing to go over, they will definitely welcome you!"
Lu Ping reached out to take the ticket, looked at it, and laughed.
"I'll be there on time!"
