As for Chen Feng's premiere arrangements, he didn't want to run into Chen Dongsheng directly.
However, the next day, the official Weibo of "Eight-Story Demon Tower" suddenly announced that the premiere date was updated to January 29th.
This change to "Eight-Story Demon Tower" is quite interesting. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the other party did it on purpose. Although the schedules of the two movies have collided with each other, "Charlotte" has already been postponed by one day.
This is considered a relatively polite behavior.
But now that "Eight-Story Demon Tower" has made such an official change, it has even hit the premiere date, and it is obviously full of gunpowder.
On this day, "Eight-Storey Demon Tower" officially released its trailer. Judging from the trailer, this is indeed a well-made movie with full special effects and inspiring music. There are handsome men and beautiful women in the movie.
Moreover, the promotion of the trailer is also very strong. Not only are they recommended on the homepages of major video websites across the Internet, but there are also advertisements on TV. The momentum is very large. Of course, the actors and actresses in the movie are also working hard to promote it.
In addition to promoting on Weibo, they also appeared on TV shows to help promote, which can be said to be quite dedicated.
As for "Charlotte", the total investment is just over 30 million, and the production cost is nearly 25 million, which is mainly spent on creating the big scenes in the movie, especially in Charlotte's dream.
In the plot of the movie after Charlotte became a star, Chen Feng invested more scenes and scenes than the original version, making the various scenes after Charlotte became a big star more accurate and grand. He spent nearly 10 million on this one. The remaining
There are still almost 6 million in publicity expenses.
This 6 million promotion fee is enough for ordinary domestic movies, but compared to a big production like "The Eight-Story Demon Tower", it is really just a fraction.
Liu Gan inquired about the news and found that the promotion fee for "Eight-Story Demon Tower" was as high as 30 million, which was higher than the production fee for their "Charlotte".
"I have found 4 groups of trolls on the Internet. They helped us with publicity on various forums, post bars, and Weibo for a week, which cost almost 2 million. In addition, I also contacted several big names as requested by my boss.
v and well-known film critics, their fees range from 100,000 to 1 million. We don’t know the specific effects. I think we need to be more cautious in this area. We need to be cautious about specific candidates. In other aspects, I helped contact
Several TV stations. At present, only Beijing TV Station has given a clear reply and is willing to invite the boss to participate in the variety show "Entertainment Duel" next week."
In the conference room of Summit Entertainment, Chen Feng held a high-level meeting. Only Jia Yong, Liu Qian, Chen Feng, and Li Dazhi attended the meeting.
As soon as Jia Yong finished speaking, Li Dazhi said: "The ratings of Beijing Satellite TV are not good. The ratings of "Entertainment Versus" are even lower. The effect of "Master" on such a program is very limited. It is best.
It is better to participate in a big-name program on Shonan Satellite TV, so that the effect will be better."
Jia Yong smiled bitterly and said: "I also want to send the boss to Xiangnan Satellite TV to participate in the program. But we don't have any acquaintances there. Even though the boss is somewhat famous, to be honest, he is not yet at the top. People just don't like you. What can we do?
Sample?"
Liu Gan asked: "Can't we use some public relations money?"
Jia Yong said distressedly: "The main reason is that there is no way out. Our Summit Entertainment has just been established, and we have no interaction with those in southern Hunan."
Li Dazhi immediately shouted: "That's not right. Master should have someone he knows. That Wang Hang, I remember that he also forwarded Master's movie promotion Weibo on Weibo this time. Master, are you talking to Wang Hang?"
I know him. He is one of the leading hosts of Xiangnan Satellite TV."
Jia Yong also slapped his forehead and said: "I remembered it too. I almost forgot. Boss, you should know Wang Hang. Otherwise, it is impossible for others to forward it for you for no reason."
Chen Feng nodded and said: "We just met at Liu Qinfei's last album launch. If we really want to say that there is any relationship, it really doesn't matter. But he is a pretty good person. Originally, I didn't want to use this relationship. After all,
Opening your mouth this time is equivalent to owing him a favor. You must know that in this world, the debt of favor is the most difficult to repay."
"Master, how can you not owe favors when you are in the entertainment industry? Favors are owed back and forth. We cannot be loners and must constantly expand our network. Otherwise, how will Summit Entertainment develop in the future?
grow?"
Jia Yong also said quickly: "Yes. Boss, if you work in the entertainment industry, you must owe favors. Everyone helps each other and mutual benefit is the mainstream. You can't go far if you rely on yourself."
"Okay, okay. When it comes to promoting on TV, I'll do it myself. It's just that "Running Brothers" hosted by Wang Hang doesn't seem to be suitable for promoting our movie. Does he have any other programs? Interview-based ones are best.
It’s more suitable for us to do publicity.”
Chen Feng has only traveled through this time and space for a few months, and he doesn't really understand some of the TV programs in this time and space.
After Liu Qian and the others thought about it, Li Dazhi said: "It seems that Xiangnan Satellite TV doesn't have any interview programs. They are all variety shows that focus on entertainment, and Wang Hang has never hosted any interview programs. Xiangnan Satellite TV is the most suitable for movie promotion.
The program must be Happy Camp, but it is hosted by Teacher He, and I heard that the relationship between Teacher He and Wang Hang is very subtle and they compete with each other. Otherwise, Master, you can use Wang Hang's relationship and ask him to help send you off.
Go to Happy Camp."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Since he has a delicate relationship with Teacher He, what would he think if I asked him to help me participate in Teacher He's program? Doesn't it mean that I don't like the program he hosts?"
"Haha, that's true. However, the program hosted by Wang Hang is really not suitable for promoting our movie."
Chen Feng suddenly felt a little sick. In fact, he himself didn't want to promote it very much because he was very confident that the movie would be a big hit. It might be even more popular than the first "From Earth" at the box office.
It's going to explode.
But Tiandi Cinema is the largest investor, and the contract signed at the time already stated that he, the director, screenwriter and starring actor, would actively promote the film after it is completed.
People trust him so much that they invested 20 million, and they didn't even send a producer. Even if he wanted to show off his face, he would have to appear on one or two TV shows.
Liu Gan said: "It seems that we have to make connections. It's best to find someone with connections at Xiangnan Satellite TV to help contact us and get access to Happy Camp. In the past, those movies and TV series basically had to be released.
It’s a last resort. We’d better be no exception.”
Jia Yong scratched his head and said, "Then I'll think of something else. I know a few people at Beijing TV, maybe through them I can get to know the people at Xiangnan TV."
As soon as he finished speaking, the cell phone in his pocket rang. He didn't have any inhibitions. He took out his cell phone and looked at it. He said with a smile on his face: "It's from Xiangnan Satellite TV."
After saying that, he quickly answered the call. After a while of thanking him, Jia Yong hung up the phone, and his fat face was filled with joy.
"Fat brother, what did they say?" Li Dazhi quickly urged.
Jia Yong did not show off and said directly: "They agreed and invited the main creative staff of "Charlotte" to Happy Camp."
"Why did they suddenly agree?" Li Dazhi asked with some surprise and surprise.
Jia Yong smiled and said: "Agreement is better than no agreement. After all, our boss's last movie was also the best-selling among domestic movies in recent years. It also won an international award. Plus he is a very famous singer.
.His willingness to participate in Happy Camp is actually to give face to Hunan Satellite TV."
Chen Feng frowned slightly at this time, because he instinctively felt that this was a bit weird. After all, Jia Yong had asked his grandfather to sue his grandma before, and he called him several times a day, but nothing happened. Now he took the initiative
It's always a bit weird to call and say I want to invite them.
But this was indeed a very rare opportunity to promote the movie. Chen Feng didn't care about anything else and asked directly: "When did they say it would be recorded?"
Jia Yong nodded and said: "Three days later, Friday."
"Well, you go ahead and book a flight. We'll go there the day after tomorrow, Thursday."
"Buy a few tickets. Who will go there?"
"Me, Zheng Xiaoyan, Li Binbin, Dazhi, Jianlin, and Xiaobai will go over. Let's be six of us."
"good."
"In addition, you can organize a group of trolls and ask these people to help distribute our trailer to increase the popularity."
"Is this necessary? We have already invited four batches of naval forces."
"It's necessary. Because I don't plan to spend money to hire those big Vs and film critics. I will save the money on this and invest it in the navy."
"Oh well."
"The meeting is dismissed. Jia Yong, please work harder. After waiting for a while, I will find an assistant for you."
"That's great. I'm really not used to you asking me to do such detailed work. After all, my educational level is just like this, not very high. You can hire someone with a college education for me, preferably one who is proficient in the Internet and computers."
"In the end, you have to find it yourself and be satisfied with it. After all, he is your assistant. I will definitely not treat him badly in terms of salary and remuneration."
"Okay, then I'll look for it."
Liu Gan and Jia Yong stood up and left the conference room. Li Dazhi did not leave immediately. After the two of them went out, he whispered to Chen Feng: "Master, I have something to say. Although Fat Brother is a good person,
But it is really inappropriate for you to ask him to be the deputy general manager of our Summit Entertainment. As he said just now, he is suitable for doing some chores and managing the artists of our company. After all, he was a group leader before.
If you ask him to manage a company, or let him be responsible for external relations, publicity planning, etc., he is a little inappropriate. He is not as good as me in this area. I think you need to find a vice president
, it is best to have experience in managing entertainment companies and have outstanding abilities.”
"Didn't I just say that? Find him a more professional assistant. The first thing is that he can like and accept it. Otherwise, if I just give him one, he will definitely feel uncomfortable. He is our pinnacle.
The veteran of entertainment, I can't let him feel cold."
"Alas, Master, you are too soft-hearted. Originally, Fat Brother's personal ability is not suitable for being the vice president. Our company needs to develop and grow. If he, the vice president, cannot keep pace with the times and show his corresponding abilities, he will
Become an obstacle to the development of our company."
"Okay, okay. How long has our company been established? We need to take it step by step, down to earth, one step at a time. Don't start running before you learn to walk. I'm not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry? Jia Yong is a very capable person.
There must be some. Among other things, his interpersonal skills and ability to communicate with others are very good. In addition, he is a native of Beijing and knows many people from all walks of life. He is more than enough to be our vice president. Don't tell me anything about him in the future.
If he comes down, it won't be your turn to take over."
"Okay, okay. Pretend I didn't say it. I didn't want to take his position. I still know myself. I just want the company to develop better. I am your apprentice, and I am a star.
My goal is, I have no interest in company management or anything like that, nor do I have the ability."
"It's good that you know. From now on, you will only have the right to make suggestions and not make decisions on matters in the company. Okay, get out."
After sending Li Dazhi away, Chen Feng opened his laptop and logged into QQ. As expected, Miranda had already left him a message.
It's now ten o'clock in the morning here in Beijing, and seven o'clock in the evening in Los Angeles. By this time, Miranda has finished her day's trip and returned home to the villa.
More than two months ago, due to filming, Chen Feng failed to fulfill his promise to meet at least once in a month or two. This made Chen Feng feel a little guilty. Fortunately, Miranda understood it and did not complain about him. Of course, this
It also has a lot to do with the fact that he always takes time to have overseas phone calls or overseas video chats with her every day.
"I'm here." Chen Feng immediately called the message in the chat box, and then opened the remote video.
Not long after, the other side was connected to the other side.
Smartphones have not yet appeared in this time and space, but computers and the Internet are almost at the same level as in his original time and space, so even if there is a cross-ocean video call on the Internet, there will not be much delay.
In the video screen, Miranda was still beautiful and moving, which made Chen Feng feel itchy. Although the woman he had booked had close contact with each other, it was a pity that the last step was not realized. If he really had to wait until marriage to have a real kiss,
Chen Feng was not sure when it was.
After all, he is only 23 years old now. In terms of one year old, he is only 21 years old. He is really a bit young.
"Dear, how is the promotion of your movie going? Do you want me to go and support you at the premiere?"
Miranda was still so well-informed and reasonable, and asked him about the situation as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Movie promotion has been put on the agenda. In two days I will go to a TV station with good ratings to record a program to promote my movie. For the premiere, you don't want to come back. It's a hassle to go back and forth. Wait for the premiere.
