Chapter 719 Who Needs This Movie Queen More?
The premiere of "The Wind" took place in the capital.
This movie was jointly produced by the two teams of Black Bean Media and Huayi. It can be regarded as an all-star cast, so many media and guests came.
As long as the two artists are not too busy, almost all of them come.
There are also artists from other companies.
Whether it’s Aunt Hua’s flattery or Black Bean Media’s flattery, they are both worthy of a slap in the face.
For example, Fan Xuexue, who has left Aunt Hua, and Gao Yuanyuan, who has a good relationship with Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi...
An Xiaoxi guest-starred as a nurse and was considered one of the actors. She was also the producer and attended the premiere with Hao Yun.
If she didn't appear with Hao Yun, everyone would think it was abnormal.
If a girl wants to be pretty, she must be filial.
An Xiaoxi, dressed in a white dress, is still the most dazzling among the beautiful actresses.
The other one is Fan Xuexue.
After leaving Aunt Hua and losing her backer, she hooked up with Hong Jingbao. She didn't do well, but she wasn't too bad either.
It’s just that it’s inevitable that they will be squeezed out by domestic entertainment female stars.
Some time ago, when Hao Yun attended the film festival in Venice, it happened to be the fifth "Bazaar Star Charity Night".
That night, Aunt Zhang Zi, Zhao Yanzi, Li Xuexue and others were very close and communicated frequently, but ignored Fan Xuexue.
Only Huang Da'an stood awkwardly between Fan Xuexue and all the female stars.
Today's situation is a bit similar. It feels like Fan Xuexue can no longer fit in with others.
In fact, An Xiaoxi is also disliked by female celebrities. Except for those in the same company who are closer to each other, other female celebrities keep a distance from her.
There are more wolves and less meat in the entertainment industry, so there are only so many resources.
Even Aunt Zhang Zi actually has to find ways to seize good resources.
But An Xiaoxi doesn't need to.
This makes people feel jealous.
Of course, even if everyone is jealous, they will not neglect her like they did to Fan Xuexue.
Firstly, it was because An Xiaoxi was with Hao Yun almost the whole time, and they even held hands while walking on the red carpet.
Secondly, no one dared to exclude An Xiaoxi.
Hao Yun is not someone to be trifled with.
If it weren't for Hao Yun, none of these female celebrities would mind being pushed by others.
As soon as An Xiaoxi's works are published, a lot of people will definitely criticize her.
Catching rumors, spreading rumors, and distorting the truth can be as dirty as you want.
When everyone arrived, the premiere started.
Even Jiang Wen, the "competitor", appeared at the scene wearing a black suit.
Today, September 18th, is a rather special day.
Hao Yun couldn't say what kind of person he was. If he had to sum it up, he was just an ordinary person.
He felt that he loved this land very much.
Although he is worth hundreds of millions, if the critical moment comes, he will at least be willing to spend half of it to save the country and the people.
It’s just that I am deeply disgusted by some of the filth that has happened, is happening, and will definitely happen in the future in this land.
Therefore, he is destined not to become great.
If you can't become great, then pursue fame and fortune. The entertainment industry is a typical vanity fair.
"This is the original work of "The Sound of the Wind"..."
Hao Yun showed the new book to the media at the premiere. It is similar to "The Leader" and also has "The Wind".
In fact, "The Wind" has been on the market for several months, but because there is no marketing, the sales volume is not high, and the total sales are not as good as "The Leader", which was released after the TV series was aired.
"The Wind" is relatively famous only among spy fans.
Hao Yun is now going to be in the movie "The Wind", so he will definitely use it for marketing together.
Although it says "Da Qun·Author" on the cover, everyone knows that Da Qun is Hao Yun's vest.
The media snapped pictures, and some even adjusted the focus to give a close-up.
"Interested readers can buy it and watch it. It's quite different from the movie. All the profits from this book..."
Hao Yun paused for a moment, and the media's eyes became intense.
Thinking that the proceeds from "Leader" were donated to the Western Yunnan Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, it is obvious that Hao Yun's "The Wind" also plans to do the same.
"Leader" is not a best-seller, but the cumulative revenue is at least hundreds of thousands.
And it’s a steady stream of donations.
There are thousands of traditional writers, but no one dares to do this.
Hao Yun's behavior is too popular with ordinary people.
Moreover, he is a star and has influence that ordinary writers do not have. He donated money to the Western Yunnan Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, which brought a lot of popularity to the memorial hall.
In addition to donations from ordinary people, the local government also allocated money.
We can't just watch the efforts of the private sector for this kind of thing, they should also do something.
"All proceeds from "The Wind" will be donated to the Anti-Japanese War Memorial Halls in various places... Don't forget the national humiliation. It's not just a talk. The sacrifices of our ancestors should be kept in mind..."
Very positive words.
No matter how sincere he is or what utilitarian purpose he has, at least what he said is absolutely correct.
There was a round of applause.
Next comes the rest of the premiere, which has a slightly heavier atmosphere.
Because today is September 18th.
Don’t dare forget!
The guests attending the premiere were basically in black and white, with very few wearing bright clothes.
What's more, the premiere was an anti-war movie.
The movie is officially released!
Zhang Xiaojie was lucky enough to get tickets for the premiere and saw Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi in person.
Compared to his image on the screen, Hao Yun gives people a taller and more burly feeling. Even when An Xiaoxi stands next to him, she feels like a little bird.
No wonder Hao Yun rarely works with other female stars.
With his height, many female stars probably have to step on apple boxes to act with him.
As for An Xiaoxi...
Zhang Xiaojie feels that the camera did not capture her beauty, nor did it capture her youthfulness.
Perhaps because she has not experienced too many bad things, An Xiaoxi and other female stars are in completely different mental states.
Other female stars are like wearing masks.
When they smile, they can obviously feel fake, especially when the two female stars cover their mouths to talk. Few people in real life are like them.
They don't forget to act on stage and behind the scenes.
But An Xiaoxi's smiles and frowns in private are very lively, sometimes very cute, and she is the kind of person who disdains acting from the bottom of her heart.
Even in "Little Forest", this kind of liveliness is not reflected.
Zhang Xiaojie can finally understand why those fans who have seen An Xiaoxi in person say that An Xiaoxi is not photogenic.
He used to think that fans were shameless.
If they can't be photogenic like this, how can they be photogenic?
In addition, Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi really look like conjoined twins.
The main actors of "The Sound of Wind" are Zhou Xun and Li Xuexue.
Logically, Hao Yun should be with Zhou Xun on one side and Li Xuexue on the other.
But in fact, Hao Yun only had An Xiaoxi as his female companion throughout the whole process. They also sat together when they sat down to watch the movie. The other side seemed to be Aunt Hua's boss.
After the lights went out and the movie officially started, Zhang Xiaojie didn't pay attention to the stars.
The opening scene was the spy chief trying to persuade an old man.
And this spy chief was played by Hao Yun.
Hao Yun has never been shy about playing a villain. Zhang Xiaojie has watched "The Disciple" released in the middle of the year. The person who impressed him the most was not Liu Furong, but Hao Yun who played the hidden gentleman.
At that time, he was shocked by Hao Yun's acting skills.
In the past, I only paid attention to Hao Yun's talent and his directing ability. I didn't expect that his acting skills were not inferior at all.
What a pity, well, not at all, as the spy chief was killed within a minute of his appearance.
He bounced slightly when he died.
He died well, very satisfying!
There was even a burst of laughter in the screening room.
These directors are not very common in their cameo appearances in their own movies, just like Quentin, he also likes to die in various ways.
Zhang Xiaojie also laughed.
But he admired Hao Yun more, he also played a small role with great effort, Hao Yun is really not as floating as people say on the Internet.
The characters behind appeared one after another.
I didn't expect Huang Danan's performance to be very good.
This is also a young actor who is more of an idol than a real actor, and he once competed with Hao Yun for the role of Yang Guo.
If he had won at the beginning, what would "The Return of the Condor Heroes" be like?
Zhang Xiaojie shook his head, that was not a good idea.
Not only because he was a fan of Hao Yun, but also because he felt that Huang Danan was just good, and could not be compared with Hao Yun.
Except for Huang Danan, all the others are powerful actors, especially Wang Zhiwen, who made the audience very excited.
In the movie, Wang Zhiwen plays Wang Tianxiang, the real spy chief who works for the devils. He is a villain who is cunning, vicious, alert, smooth and good at flattery.
He speaks lightly, but the torture is creepy.
Closed space, fierce contradictions, full characters...
Jin Shenghuo's oil, Bai Xiaonian's yin, Wu Zhiguo's hardness, Li Ningyu's coldness, Gu Xiaomeng's coquettishness...
Almost everyone has their own highlight moments.
Such roles are called group portraits, and such actors are called powerful.
Takeda took Li Ningyu to the basement, stripped her clothes, and measured her body.
Although Li Ningyu suffered humiliation, she did not give in. Instead, she took advantage of the alcohol and cursed in front of everyone: "I can't beat you, but I'm not afraid of you!
The braver one is Gu Xiaomeng.
"I'm not afraid of death. I'm afraid that the people I love don't know why I died. I left this record in purgatory, hoping that my family and Sister Yu would forgive my decision at this moment, but I firmly believe that you will eventually understand my feelings. My dear, I am so ruthless to you, only because the nation is at the point of survival, and my generation can only risk their lives to save it in case of an emergency. ”
Zhou Xun’s last lines not only express his attachment to his loved ones, but also his national self-improvement. Human feelings and justice resonate perfectly, and the whole “The Sound of Wind” is a perfect combination of the main theme and genre films.
Everyone was watching the movie attentively, attracted by such a wonderful story full of suspense and climaxes.
Although there is no battlefield scene, it reveals the crueler side of war in another way.
The Sound of Wind is the film that truly captures the spirit of patriotism and national salvation, and the soul of civilian martyrs. works!
As an ordinary audience, Zhang Xiaojie clapped very hard, and his palms turned red.
Others also applauded.
This is the premiere, and applause is the greatest tribute to the creator.
When the lights in the screening room came on, Hao Yun stood in his seat and bowed to the audience behind him.
He did not arrange an interview after the movie.
This movie does not need to be boasted by itself, everything is left to the audience to comment.
After the screening, no cocktail party was arranged.
Aunt Hua wanted to arrange it, but Hao Yun refused because of the special day.
However, Wang Chongjun really wanted to talk to Hao Yun about something, so he came over shamelessly.
"Miss An, I want to borrow Hao Yun for a moment. I want to talk to him about something. I'll send him back to you later." Wang Chongjun held Hao Yun and didn't let go.
An Xiaoxi was slightly embarrassed, snorted and ran away.
I’m giving it to you, I don’t want it anymore!
You two, let's go there together.
So Hao Yun got into Wang Chongjun's car. It was inconvenient to have someone take him all the way, so instead of returning to the manor, he turned back to his home over at Wudaokou.
After getting in the car, we first talked about the movie.
Wang Chongjun was full of praise for Hao Yun and tactfully expressed his regret that the cooperation on recent projects was not close enough.
Mainly because Aunt Hua's funds are indeed a bit tight.
"The King of Kung Fu" almost emptied their fortune, forcing them to find ways to raise funds.
Not to mention that Ma Datan also has a new film to shoot.
There are other co-directors who need to be maintained. Even if they don’t pay the full amount, they still want to get a big share.
Hao Yun is getting more and more playful, and there are two bad guys (Bernard + Guangxian) jumping up and down like licking dogs. Aunt Hua really can't afford it.
However, when Wang Chongjun heard that "Little Forest" had sold for more than three million US dollars overseas, he was immediately heartbroken.
The production cost of the four "Little Forest" movies was only 6 million. Even if you include publicity and distribution, the cost would be 10 million at most.
The overseas copyright was sold for more than three million US dollars, which is converted into more than 24 million yuan.
Not to mention that "Little Forest" also has box office and disc sales.
The audio and video copyright of Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises" was sold for 1.5 million. I heard that the asking price for the disc of "Little Forest" alone was 3 million.
Now in "The Wind", Aunt Hua accounts for 10%.
But when he thought that Guangxian Media accounted for 20%, his heart felt like an alien wanted to break out of his body.
Hao Yun said a few perfunctory words.
It's really perfunctory that can be seen.
Which investment meeting was held without calling you?
Guangxian and Bernard not only actively competed for shares, but also scrambled to use publicity resources or other favorable conditions to increase their bargaining chips.
It's you, Aunt Hua, who is so reserved.
The opportunity was given to you, but you didn't use it.
Hao Yun was not afraid that Wang Chongjun, his assistant, and driver would stop the car and surround him and beat him violently.
He could hit ten for this kind of pleasure that was drained by wine and sex.
If you say more, it will be easy to lose control and be beaten to death accidentally.
"Ahem, one more thing..."
This matter is Wang Chongjun's highlight, and cooperation matters do not need to be discussed in secret.
"what?"
Hao Yun heard that the king always catered to both men and women, so he never gave up his vigilance. At least he never drank the water in the car.
"This fact is a bit hard to talk about...but I have to say it," Wang Chongjun sighed and said: "Zhou Xun went to your black beans, Fan Xuexue set up her own business, and I am the only one left with Li Xuexue."
"Mr. Wang is too self-effacing. Aunt Hua has not only recovered her strength now, but has also reached a higher level than before. There are so many female stars, how can there be only Li Xuexue, and Li Xuexue's strength is not inferior to Zhou Xun and Fan Xuexue... …”
Hao Yun didn't know what the other party's purpose was, so he could only try his best to deal with it.
What do you say about Wang Chongjun?
Typical capitalist.
People like him are the mainstream in the entertainment industry, or those who are not typical enough have long been eliminated.
This is what Hao Yun can deal with.
If he is obsessed with the so-called "keeping oneself clean", he will definitely be in trouble.
And Hao Yun doesn't think he is any nobler than Wang Chongjun.
At most, he is just a male star with no hidden rules.
"What kind of strength? She's not even a movie queen..." Wang Chongjun felt a headache.
Not having a movie queen is not a big problem.
In the entertainment industry, commercial value has almost nothing to do with awards. There are many actors and actresses who suffer from poverty, while stars with no acting skills and no awards are superior.
But Li Xuexue and her sister didn't care.
And it's already a bit crazy.
"Didn't Li Xuexue win the Best Actress Award a few days ago?" Hao Yun was talking about the Huabiao Award.
"It's too watery..." Wang Chongjun shook his head.
Then Hao Yun stopped talking. He looked out the window at the night and neon lights, wondering how people could be so shameless.
"Zhou Xun has a golden horse, a golden statue, a white flower, and a lot of other movie queens. One less golden horse or golden statue will actually have little impact on her. Li Xuexue needs it more than Zhou Xun..."
Hao Yun didn't answer, and Wang Chongjun didn't retreat despite the difficulties. He was moved with emotion and understood with reason.
What he meant was simple.
Since "The Wind" has two female protagonists, as long as Zhou Xun is willing to give up, Li Xuexue can take it.
Wang Chongjun watched the movie today. He felt that Li Xuexue's acting was indeed very good. Even if her acting skills were not as brilliant as Zhou Xun's, she was still worthy of being a movie queen.
This was also the reason why he made a request to Hao Yun.
If they were thousands of miles apart, he wouldn't rush to fight for Li Xuexue.
"Mr. Wang, we have known each other for many years. It can even be said that you helped me get to where I am today. I even regard you as my idol..."
Hao Yun did not say that the judging panel has the final say.
If both of them were nominated, as long as Zhou Xun showed his willingness to give in, Aunt Hua would be able to give the actress' public relations to Li Xuexue in minutes.
What are those so-called judges busy with all day long?
It's just fame and fortune.
Anyway, Hao Yun has never seen a filmmaker who doesn't love fame or money, let alone a film judge like this.
"You're too kind, too kind." Wang Zhongjun said embarrassedly.
Aunt Hua did invest in a few of Hao Yun's films, but they all made money, so they owed Hao Yun the favor.
And it was Jiang Wen who helped Hao Yun, not Aunt Hua.
It's just that Hao Yun praised him to the sky.
Many of the words that were originally prepared, and even the chips that could be used for transactions, could not be said or presented.
"You are an artist agent, so I also learn to be an artist agent. You invest in film and television dramas, so I also learn to invest in film and television dramas. I walk the path you have walked with trepidation, as if treading on thin ice, but I am a young boy from the countryside, and I don't know if I can catch up with you..."
Hao Yun's words made Wang Zhongjun drink a sip of water.
It was so damn choking.
