Chapter 551 Big Brother and Little Brother (5,000 Words Updated!)

After the interview with Variety Show, Lu Yanhe had a ten-minute break.

Only then did he take some time to drink the soup Wan Qingqing made for him.

There was almost no time to eat today. He could only eat something and drink some soup to replenish energy as he did now.

Chen Ziyan sat next to him and said, "Good news."

"Um?"

"After your live interview on CBN Morning News, the real-time search for "Friends" on the Maxine site has reached the first place. A total of 320,000 people have searched for this show in the past two hours."

“I don’t know how many viewers it can convert.”

"The audience for CBN's morning news is in the millions. In addition to Kaiser Murray's interview with you, several clips of your responses have been circulated relatively well on the Internet and attracted some attention. If it can eventually be Bringing more than one million effective viewers to "Friends" is a huge success, and it's no wonder that Maxine helped you get on the show."

Lu Yanhe smiled.

"Why don't they arrange for other starring roles? I'm too pressed for time."

"Don't you think they are not pressed for time? In China, as long as you become popular, you can be busy without having to travel overseas." Chen Ziyan smiled, "However, the main reason is because you were overseas before. The performance has been very good, like CBN morning news Not everyone can be on the highly watched column. Even if Maxine gets the opportunity to be on the show through the help of public relations, it is not possible for anyone to be on the show. Otherwise, Maxine certainly hopes for the promotion opportunity of "Friends". The more the merrier.”

Lu Yanhe asked: "Isn't Yan Liang good now? "The Gold Rush" also brought him a lot of attention."

"At the public level, there is still a long way to go." Chen Ziyan said, "However, Zhou Ping'an made a good move for him in this regard. Although Yan Liang did not get a publicity opportunity like CBN, Zhou Ping'an still gave him a promotion opportunity in Asia. He used his personal connections and connections to connect with many media and conducted exclusive interviews with him based on the popularity of "The Gold Rush" and "Friends."

"Zhou Ping'an...is he so grand? Is he willing to let Yan Liang be known to more people?" Lu Yanhe was surprised when he heard Chen Ziyan say this, because it was not in line with Zhou Ping'an's style as he knew it.

Chen Ziyan: "Who knows what he is thinking. To be fair, Zhou Ping'an doesn't have a dirty mind. He just does a lot of tricks."

Lu Yanhe: "He is really a magical person."

Even today, Lu Yanhe has to admit this.

Regarding his former agent, the longer he knew him, the more curious Lu Yanhe became about him.

This curiosity is nothing more than wanting to know what is going on in his mind.

Why do you often do such embarrassing things like picking sesame seeds and losing watermelons?

Time and time again, never get tired of it.

Chen Ziyan: "By the way, Fuli wants to be on the show "The Birth of an Actor", you know, right?"

"Know."

"She said directly during the interview that she was not very satisfied with her current development situation, so she wanted to find an opportunity to improve her career."

"So are they going to put her on the show?"

"Still discussing, with some hesitation. The main reason is that she had a school bullying scandal in the past. Although the later scandal was suppressed, I don't know whether it is true or not. I am afraid that if it is true, it will explode again."

"This kind of risk is quite prone to thunderstorms." Lu Yanhe said.

Chen Ziyan: "But I have seen her as a little girl. She is very ambitious and driven. As long as she never admits defeat and maintains this state, it will be a matter of time before she gets ahead. Her conditions are really good. Now, as long as I gain some fame, I will be able to thrive in the fashion industry.”

Lu Yanhe nodded.

After chatting for a while, Lu Yanhe ended his break and continued the interview with another media.

-

Sometimes, many people will question, in such a big media era with millions or tens of millions of traffic, why do we still do this kind of print media interview that may only be seen by hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of people, or in the When promoting a movie, we run road shows, and after one show, there are only a few hundred viewers at most.

In fact, many people have forgotten one thing. If you want to be seen in a big media era with millions and tens of millions of traffic, you must first have a publicity point and materials.

Just like Lu Yanhe, in addition to "Variety", the other media he was interviewed by may not have more than 100,000 direct readers of the final interview script. However, many of the contents and stories mentioned in it will be read by other media and Chen Ziyan contacted the publicity party for secondary publicity and dissemination.

To put it bluntly, a serious interview like this is actually a rich material library in itself, which can be used by other propaganda parties as raw materials for secondary processing.

The same goes for movie roadshows.

In fact, those who are interested can actually take a look at how many of the popular search terms on a movie and the widely spread news keywords came out during the movie road show.

These things cannot be created out of thin air.

It’s not like you can write a script and direct it yourself.

Never underestimate the power of human interaction.

There are always surprises and surprises at road shows - surprises and surprises are news.

Interviews can also delve into the minds of the interviewees and discover things that are unknown or have not been made public - this is what propaganda is about.

Lu Yanhe had already understood this truth deeply from the success of "Jump Up", so no matter the size of the media, whether the interviewer is a senior or a newcomer in the industry, he always respected and treated them seriously.

In this line of work, you never know when the people and things you meet will have what kind of impact on you.

Just like that day when he suddenly went to guest star and played "Three Mountains" for an entire night, it became the main reason why many film directors later used him, and it also became a door directly leading to Rome on his film road.

-

At noon, Lu Yanhe ate a piece of bread, drank the soup stewed by Wan Qingqing, and went to take a nap.

The nap time was fifteen minutes.

Afterwards, they took a departure photo and went to the premiere of "The Mist".

On the way there, in the group of three people, Li Zhibai suddenly sent a screenshot of his interview with CBN Morning News in the morning, on which someone translated their conversation into Chinese subtitles.

Li Zhibai said: From now on, the title of "Brother" will be given to you.

Lu Yanhe: I don't dare to accept it. You are the brother, and I am just the brother.

Yan Liang: Big brother, little brother.

Lu Yanhe: What about you?

Li Zhibai: An old cadre who is keeping fit.

Yan Liang: Get lost.

Lu Yanhe laughed and asked: Aren't you guys sleeping yet?

Li Zhibai: What the hell, I'm memorizing the lines. I took your job temporarily and came to play "Friends" for you.

Lu Yanhe: It's just a few lines, you haven't memorized them yet?

Li Zhibai: No, what's wrong?

Lu Yanhe: Come on.

Yan Liang: He deserves it. I told him to memorize them earlier, but he refused.

Lu Yanhe: Why aren't you sleeping yet?

Yan Liang: I'm reading the script. Zhou Ping'an sent me a script.

Lu Yanhe: He's been working more frequently recently. Why is he so interested in you all of a sudden? I heard from Sister Zi Yan that he also accepted a lot of interviews and reports from overseas media for you.

Yan Liang: You think too much. He just wants to consolidate the label that I have influence and popularity overseas so that he can get endorsements. Many brands were not interested in me before. He thinks that now is the time when I am the most shining star. If I don’t fight for the endorsement at this time, it will be more difficult later.

Lu Yanhe: I thought he changed his character and started to take your work seriously.

Yan Liang: He is not unserious, but his goal is not to make my career better.

Li Zhibai: After Meng Li came to him, there was no movement?

Yan Liang: No, it seems that she is busy with love recently.

Li Zhibai:?

Yan Liang: Zhou Pingan said.

Lu Yanhe: Meng Li, love? So not working? I don’t believe it.

This is not the Meng Li in his impression.

Meng Li can fall in love, but she will never give up her job for love.

This woman, although crazy, is very career-oriented.

Yan Liang: Who knows.

Li Zhibai: Is the premiere of "The Mist" about to start over there?

Lu Yanhe: I will be on the red carpet in an hour, and the screening will start at 2:30 pm.

Li Zhibai: Let's see if "The Mist" can make you a hit in the United States and reap a wave of box office revenue.

Lu Yanhe smiled: I don't know, but D19's market positioning for this movie is mainly for Asian audiences and horror movie audiences. They are not optimistic about the market for all ages.

Li Zhibai: A horror movie, or a movie with the theme of ghost revenge, it is impossible to become the main theme for all ages in the United States. There are many religious beliefs in the United States, and horror movies are not family-friendly movies.

Lu Yanhe: Yes, so it is almost impossible for me to become a hit in the United States. This movie does not have this space. As long as it can be successful at the box office, that's enough.

The box office is the greatest value that this movie gives Lu Yanhe.

Just like Chen Ziyan's goal, as long as the North American box office of this movie reaches 70 million US dollars and the global box office reaches 100 million US dollars, it will be a success.

His first overseas production movie is a success.

As for his performance in the film... Lu Yanhe was still very confident. The reactions of the staff at the shooting site had already given him very positive feedback.

Director Muken was not a newcomer either. It was impossible for the post-production editor to edit his performance into a mess.

-

The premiere set up a red carpet area for the media to take photos, but it was different from the big red carpet at the film festival. In fact, the red carpet at the premiere ceremony was just a red carpet laid at the entrance of the screening room with a background board erected. It was not as grand as the red carpet at the film festival.

Lu Yanhe appeared at the back.

The staff assigned to him by D19 had been following him and guiding him since he left the hotel.

He was the one who led the whole process, while Wan Qingqing and Chen Ziyan followed him.

When he arrived at the red carpet area, Lu Yanhe's car just drove over and was flashed by a flashing spotlight in front.

The car was parked and the door was opened. The screams outside came in like a flood.

Lu Yanhe got out of the car, and for a moment he didn't see everything in front of him clearly.

He just waved his hand habitually and smiled at the people in front of him.

Lily Williams, who was standing at the door of the screening room chatting with others, heard the screams and calls of the media and fans behind her, looked back and saw Lu Yanhe in front of her.

A very handsome man.

Lily Williams was stunned for a moment, turned back and smiled at her friend.

"Lu Yanhe actually has so many fans in the United States, which really surprised me."

A friend said: "He has gained some loyal fans in the United States in many movies and TV series in the past, especially the series "Friends". His characters are very popular."

"I can almost imagine how much the critics will love him when they see his performance in The Mist," Lily Williams said.

"Have you seen the movie yet?"

"Not yet, but he has conquered everyone on the set on the set." Lily Williams said, "He is not the same as those talented actors. He has a way of combining method and experience in acting. The magic of the combination completely catches your eyes. In this script, his character actually didn’t have such a strong sense of presence at the beginning.”

"Lily, your evaluation of him is too exaggerated."

"This is not my opinion alone, Arne and I both think so," Lily Williams said.

"What you're saying is that he can definitely compete for an Oscar with this movie."

"If it's not a horror movie, maybe he really can." This is Lily Williams' answer.

Suddenly, the next second, a loud voice came from behind them: "Yellow-skinned monkeys, go back to your own place, this is the United States!"

Even though there were screams and shouts at the scene, the sound still reached everyone's ears very loudly.

Including Lu Yanhe who was on the scene.

His expression was stunned for a moment.

-

At this moment, many thoughts passed through Lu Yanhe's mind.

All his thoughts revolved around one thing: what kind of reaction he should make was the most appropriate at the moment.

Lu Yanhe also felt stunned at this moment.

How could he be so calm at a time like this?

Being humiliated and discriminated against in person, there is no anger or shock at all, just a little surprise.

Is it because you have thought that something like this might happen?

In the United States, this kind of thing is indeed not uncommon.

Some Asian celebrities have encountered similar scenes, including in public places.

In that second, at least ten reactions flashed through Lu Yanhe's mind. Finally, after a second of stunned expression, he raised his middle finger to the big man with a somewhat disdainful and angry expression, and treated him unceremoniously. He replied: "Fuck you!"

It's English.

-

Lily Williams was also surprised.

She didn't even expect that at this time, she actually chose to walk back, walked to Lu Yanhe, gave him a huge hug, and then also raised her middle finger to the big man: "You should go back to your home. go!"

There was a burst of applause and screams.

"Let's go in and ignore him." Lily Williams said to Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe nodded and took two steps forward with Lily Williams. Suddenly he remembered something and turned back to make a few greeting gestures to the photographers at the scene, apologizing to them that he could no longer take pictures of them.

Many photographers gave him a thumbs up gesture.

Someone shouted: "Lu, we support you! We love you!"

The bodyguards at the scene were always following Lu Yanhe, fearing that there would be some radicals at this time who might do something more terrible.

Arne also came out at this time and stood at the door, looking at Lu Yanhe and the others with concern.

"Hey, bro, how are you?" Arne asked.

"Fortunately, it's okay." Lu Yanhe shook his head and smiled at him, "Thank you."

Arne glanced at the crowd angrily, as if he wanted to see who was such a bastard.

"That person has been kicked out," Lily Williams said.

The unexpected situation on the red carpet became the talk of everyone before the movie was screened.

Of course, this also caused Lu Yanhe to be greeted with concern by everyone after he entered.

Lu Yanhe did not expect that the most common thing he said before the movie "The Mist" was screened was "It's okay, I'm fine."

-

In the lounge next to the screening room, the door of the lounge was open and many people could see it. Irina Green, the publicity director of D19 Film Company, and Scott Harris, the company's CEO, stood together.

They had just finished talking with Director Muken.

The news coming from the other side of the red carpet caused people in the screening room who were originally preparing to watch the movie to start whispering among themselves.

Seeing this scene in front of her, Irina Green showed a subtle smile to Scott Harris.

When Scott Harris saw Lu Yanhe come in with Lily Williams and others, he was immediately surrounded by many people. He said to Irina Green: "Okay, we have to go and express our condolences quickly."

"Of course." Elena Green held her phone and checked the real-time situation on Twitter, "Scott, don't forget what you promised me. The North American box office of "The Mist" has exceeded 100 million, and you have to support me as a partner. ”

"We have already agreed, haven't we?" Scott Harris showed a "none of this is a problem" smile to Jelena Green.

-

As a columnist film critic for "Variety" magazine, Tom Wynn also came to the premiere of "The Mist" today.

After he met Lu Yanhe, he expressed his anger and regret to Lu Yanhe very seriously.

"I really hope you have a good time in Los Angeles."

Lu Yanhe shook his head and said with a smile: "Unhappy things will never affect my inner happiness. I am very happy to see you here."

Tom Wynn nodded and said: "I have heard from people inside D19 that your performance in this movie is unparalleled. I rarely hear people from an American film company give such high evaluations to Asian actors."

"Thank you, I hope you will not feel that this evaluation is too exaggerated in the end." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "Tom, I really hope to hear your evaluation. I can always get content that helps my performance from your evaluation."

Tom Wynn nodded, "I am very happy to hear you say that."

After a round of greetings, Lu Yanhe was finally urged to sit down and prepare to start the movie.

Lu Yanhe took a deep breath.

From the time the incident happened to now, his state can be directly described by the four words "war and chaos".

He didn't have time to recall what happened just now.

Until he sat down here.

He took a long breath.

He was absent-minded for a moment.

Were the reactions just now OK? Is there anything you didn't notice? What is everyone's evaluation of his reaction?

It was impossible for him to take out his phone and read online comments in front of everyone.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of the so-called indifference, not caring, to hell with indifference, not caring. (End of this chapter)
