"Jinling Festival" and "Infinitely Close to Warm Blue" are the focus of this film festival.
One is arranged as the opening ceremony film and the other is the closing ceremony film.
As for the premiere of the movie "Cure" directed by the "little famous" Chinese art film director Dai Chengbi, it was arranged in the middle of the pack. Moreover, it was not a single film that was screened in full, but several films were screened together.
!
This is understandable.
But after taking a look at the people coming and going in the giant movie theater, in the past few days of movie playback, there were only four or five movies with this kind of audience. Looking at this situation, not to mention the thousands of people who were seated
, eight or nine hundred is definitely indispensable!
This should have been a happy thing, but Dai Chengbi became speechless again.
Xia Yu knew what Lao Dai was feeling. During the period of "Painting the Ground", Xia Yu did not come to Cannes or Venice. Even though Lao Dai had a little reputation, he was still not favored. In the end, the attendance at the entire premiere was only a little over 30%.
Deserted!
Later, the Venice Film Festival got a little better.
Because after the Cannes Film Festival, it has accumulated a little popularity, but it is still not more than half!
This time, there were three to five movies playing at the same time, but more than 60% of the audience chose to enter the theater where the movie "Cure" was located. I have to say that this was a very good start.
Dai Chengbi was able to handle this alone, and Xia Yu had no intention of exposing him.
After all, I was just a business owner at the time, and knowing that I had no chance of winning the prize, I simply didn’t come.
So when I saw this scene, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. I pretended to joke: "It is said that pregnant women are prone to repeated emotions. What's the matter? The nieces and nephews in my sister-in-law's belly have escaped into your belly?"
Dai Chengbi's tears, which were streaming down his face, suddenly stopped.
He glared at her, not because she was teasing her, but because he said: "Not a nephew, but a niece, no... she's your goddaughter!"
He also muttered, "You pay a generous amount for the dowry, but don't try to fool me."
The day after Lao Dai finished chatting with Mrs. Zhuang, Lao Dai started to touch her.
After thinking about it, he still liked his daughter - "But this matter was something you could decide after you suddenly got pregnant?"
For this reason, Lao Dai often made innuendoes to the doctor during Song Xi's pregnancy check-up.
"Is my wife pregnant with a boy or a girl?"
"Then should I prepare small pants or a small skirt for her?"
"Doctor, I want to have a daughter. What are the chances of my dream coming true?"
"They say that a daughter is a father's caring little cotton-padded jacket. When the weather gets cold, should I wear a cotton-padded jacket or cotton trousers?"
"Doctor, I..."
As a result, the doctor directly gave him five consecutive hits to defeat him:
1. "The baby is healthy, don't ask about the gender, you can't tell!"
2. "You should prepare diapers!"
3. “Fifty percent!”
4. “What to wear when it’s cold? Wear a down jacket!”
Doctor: "...get out of here!"
These are all wonderful little episodes.
Back to topic.
Gu Xuan
As time passed and the attendance rate became higher and higher, Lao Dai couldn't believe it more and more. He even got up and went out to wander around other exhibition halls.
When I came back, I was stopped by some foreign friends and was delayed for a while.
Only after Lao Dai came back did he tell Xia Yu that he had flown here specially from other countries to pay attention to various movies. "I asked them to help me with my previous movies, and they also made a lot of money, so I planned to come over and watch them."
Let’s see if we can continue to cooperate!”
In fact, these people didn't really make much money from Lao Dai at the beginning, and even lost money, but they didn't lack that little money, and they just took a fancy to Dai Chengbi's potential (of course, these investors invested not only Dai Chengbi), but Lao Dai can be said to be one of the most successful people they invested in, and the film basically has a good reputation!
These days, Xia Yu is watching movies and "doing homework" seriously, while Lao Dai is running around with Xie Guanhui.
After all, Europe is not particularly big, but there are so many countries. Of course, the more countries you can sell movie copyrights to, the more money you can make. The euros used here, even if a copyright is sold for Ten million yuan, converted into Chinese currency, is also eight point two times!
In addition, this time, Xia Yu's influence has expanded, so that his friends have to seize the opportunity.
"If it is operated properly, overseas box office may not be lower than domestic box office!"
This is why films made by literary and artistic directors do not make money in China, or even lose money, but as long as they can pass the review, are of good quality, and can be shortlisted for foreign film festivals, especially the three major film festivals, as long as they are done properly, at least they will not lose money, or even lose money. You can also make a small profit!
In his early years, Dai Chengbi relied on the movie "Seeing Flowers in the Smoke" to achieve early financial freedom!
Xia Yu nodded and said nothing.
Zhuang He on the side was too lazy to pick up the topic and closed his eyes. After all, he was also considered an early beneficiary, but his luck and talent were indeed much higher than Dai Chengbi. He never lost money in awards for every movie he made, so he invested in it. A lot of people!
These are all things behind the scenes of some movies.
At 8:50, after recording the "Cure" ost, Yu Junhao, who had not been seen in the past two months, finally appeared in the premiere hall - he had not been seen for two months, and his body and shape had basically recovered.
Still smiling warmly, not wearing a mask, he was wearing a classic Camus suit and a bow tie. He had a short haircut for "The Wind". There was no doubt that he was handsome. He said hello and sat to the left of Dai Chengbi.
On the right is Xia Yu.
Of course.
There is also Yu Junhao’s assistant, Xiao Wang.
I sat in the back row with Meng Dong and other staff.
In fact, we were able to meet each other when we were in Liancheng. Yu Junhao was on the set at that time.
But because Zhuang He arrived suddenly and left suddenly, he didn't encounter it.
Lao Dai teased.
"I thought I couldn't see you until the closing ceremony -"
"How could that happen?" Yu Junhao laughed, "After all, it's a movie I made!"
Afterwards, they chatted for a while. During the chat and laughter, Yan Yan was still laughing and talking about where he went on vacation a few days before the opening ceremony - and then discussed what movies he had watched in the past few days. In short, no one was interested. You can see something is wrong.
After not seeing each other for two months, Xia Yu could hardly feel Yu Junhao's extra attention.
On the one hand, she breathed a sigh of relief.
On the other hand, it is inevitable to feel a moment of loss, and some indescribable feelings have faded away.
Relationships are like this. If you are too close, it will be ambiguous. If you are distant, you may still have the chance to be friends in the future, or you may not.
However, this kind of thing is inevitable, but there is still no problem in some cooperation.
She smiled in her heart and said, "That's enough."
When the time came to nine o'clock, the old man reminded, "The movie has started."
When the familiar Chinese movie begins.
The sound of "thump thump thump—" came, and the whispers in the giant cinema suddenly stopped!
