Xiao Yang waited on the roadside for almost half an hour, smoking several cigarettes, and finally saw a van driving over and screeching to a stop in front of him.
"Good morning, Director Xiao!"
"Are you making fun of me? Who am I, Director Xiao? Give up your position, give up your position."
Xiao Yang squeezed into the car unceremoniously. There was a small photography team in the car, including men and women. The most conspicuous thing was a big machine. They were all Xiao Yang's classmates or friends, and they had recently been recruited by Maili Video.
Xiao Yang has teamed up with Wang Taili to form the "Chopsticks Brothers". Last year, they filmed a short film "Memoirs of a Male Geisha" which was very popular. They are quite famous online celebrities.
In the video era of later generations, the account of a big UP owner is very valuable.
Maili Video cannot make its own content, so it turned around and formed a team for some big UP owners and asked them to complete some content. In this way, it is not considered self-made by the website, but spontaneously uploaded by netizens.
The van drove along the street, arrived at the Workers' Stadium, and drove into the east gate courtyard.
The Workers' Stadium was built in 1959. It was renovated and expanded once for the Asian Games in Beijing and again for the Olympic Games. Its current scale is far greater than before. It is not only a stadium, but also a park with an artificial lake inside.
After everyone got out of the car and walked about 200 meters, they saw a building by the lake - Jasmine Restaurant.
"I heard that the owner of this restaurant is Faye Wong's classmate?"
"Yeah, anyway, there are quite a few celebrities here. My girlfriend and I wanted to come over and see them, so we saved up 500 yuan. We took a look at the menu and were scared away. In the end, we ate a large plate of chicken."
“A place like this is just expensive, and the food may not necessarily be delicious.”
Everyone expressed sourly that they were not envious at all. They carried the machine to the door, told the staff, and then went upstairs. It was very lively upstairs, with three big shots, Feng Xiaogang, Ge You, and Feng Yuanzheng, and a group of people were busy coming and going. It was "
The filming location of "If You Are the One".
This is the purpose of Xiao Yang and his party.
On the surface, he personally came to visit the team and introduce the filming situation. In fact, they communicated with each other in private, and the leading party was 99 Entertainment.
"Hello, Director Feng!"
"Hello, Teacher Ge You!"
"Hello, Teacher Feng!"
Xiao Yang greeted him quickly, feeling excited because he had an acting dream.
"well!"
"We still have a while, please wait a moment."
"no problem, no problem!"
Feng Xiaogang knew very well that he had to give 99 face. He continued to be busy here for more than 20 minutes before he asked Xiao Yang to take some live shots and did a simple interview.
Finally comes the main topic: the three big names faced the camera, holding their fists one by one in a gesture of congratulation: "Congratulations on the opening of the Maili Video Classic Film and Television Theater!"
Yes, it ultimately comes down to publicity.
Using celebrities to attract traffic is a common method, but you definitely can't wish Maili Video to go online. They have already been online, so Xu Meng came up with a very silly reason: Maili Video Classic Film and Television Theater is opening!
Celebrities all know that she is fooling, but they still have to congratulate her.
"Well, Director Feng is very busy with his work, so I won't bother you too much... I wish your new film will be a big hit and have a prosperous future!"
The team came out and took another shot by the lake.
Since you want to create a big UP hero, you must have your own characteristics. Xiao Yang has ideas and talked about his expectations and analysis of "If You Are the One".
"OK!"
"Where's the next one?"
"Huairou, the crew of "Mei Lanfang"!"
"puff!"
Xiao Yang, who was drinking water, sprayed directly and said: "Director Chen's "Mei Lanfang"? Can he agree to let us film it?"
"Why don't you agree? Just because he was sprayed as a grandson back then, he has to show that he is humble and has many adults. Besides, we are helping him promote it."
"Ouch, the rolling pin really hit me in the butt - it opened my eyes!"
"Where is this? Mr. Yu also wanted Hu Ge to visit the class, and everyone stopped him... Hey, don't tell me, I really want to see Hu Ge interview Chen Kaige."
Several people were studying related majors and were on the fringes of the entertainment industry. They still had fresh memories of the "Steamed Bun Murder Case" and were laughing and joking.
…………
Changchun.
About 35 kilometers outside the countryside, there is a reservoir called Taipingchi. The surrounding area was originally a wild land with abundant water and grass, but now there are about 600 acres of buildings built there.
This is the filming location of "Nanjing Nanjing".
The crew restored a part of the old Nanjing city here, costing 12 million, claimed to be 30 million, and directed by Lu Xiaochuan. This person is most famous for three things:
I cried when I was bullied by Jiang Wen;
Loves sleeping with actresses;
"Life of Pi," "1942" and "The King's Feast" were released in the same year. Netizens commented: "The difference between Feng Xiaogang and Ang Lee is 100 Lu Xiaochuan."
"That's not much worse!"
Of course, at this time, Lu Xiaochuan was in high spirits. His last film "Kekexili" was well received and won the Golden Horse Award for Best Picture, which put him in a very floating state. He wanted to take "Nanjing Nanjing" to a higher level.
"Click!"
"take a break!"
The crew took a break and the stars got into the nanny car one after another. Gao Yuanyuan was walking to the parking place in costume when she was stopped by the assistant and said: "Sister, it's time to shoot the video."
"How are we going to take pictures here? There's no camera."
"Use your mobile phone to take pictures. Mr. Yu specifically asked you to walk by the reservoir, open your arms and spin around, and then let out a laugh like a silver bell..."
Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes, but went anyway.
She is now an artist at 99 Entertainment, and has a close relationship with Mr. Yu. She can even be said to be the most popular person in front of her, with a lot of resources.
She took a walk by the reservoir, blew in the wind, and actually turned around a few times, but she didn't stretch her arms, which was stupid.
The assistant recorded these moments on his mobile phone. The picture quality was rough, but what he wanted was this sense of life. This thing was called "celebrity vlog" in later generations, and it is still quite new now.
After shooting some materials, Gao Yuanyuan also said: "Congratulations on the opening of Maili Video Classic Film and Television Theater! My "Heaven and Dragon Sword" will be launched on April 20th, remember to come and see me~"
Tsk tsk tsk!
Gao Yuanyuan is 29 years old this year. She is mature, graceful and full of flavor. She is entering her most attractive age group. The assistant was full of praise:
"Mr. Yu's aesthetic taste is no different from that of Cao Cao!"
…………
This year is a big year for movies, and the movie industry that has been cultivated for several years has finally improved significantly.
"If You Are the One", "Red Cliff", "Painted Skin", "Mei Lanfang", etc., all of the top ten box office sales of the year exceeded 100 million, and 7 of them were Chinese films.
Now we have added two more films, "Manslaughter" and "Ip Man", as well as "33 Days of Love" in the second half of the year. In other words, this year's film industry data will be better than in history.
99 Entertainment sent several people to visit the class like Xiao Yang did, and achieved three birds with one stone: cultivating film and television UP masters, attracting traffic with the help of blockbusters, and using celebrity promotion websites.
Artists like Gao Yuanyuan who belong to the company can just take photos by themselves.
As for celebrities outside the company, then send a congratulatory message in the community. There are hundreds of celebrity accounts in the community, and everyone has to give some face.
