168.《SECRET》,XUXIN(1/4)

One advantage of today's Internet age is that as long as you are willing to spend money on the trailer, the film can be posted on major portals anytime, anywhere. The title is bold and shocking, attracting netizens to click in and watch.

After the two-minute video was played, Jay Chou's fans were the first to get excited.

Although it's not as exaggerated as picking out details frame by frame, I have to admit that this trailer, which is full of Korean drama style, was easily labeled with the most basic label of "campus love, magic, love".

At the same time, the smell of a bloody drama is too strong, full of Korean style.

Although Jay Chou disdains the so-called Korean Wave.

But in this film, he also had to compromise.

Because this is just a trailer, there is no need to go online, it is meaningless.

He has another edition that will be broadcast next month, and Xu Xin’s third edition will be broadcast in June.

It'll be fine if you don't watch it then, for now it's enough to have a gimmick.

On April 7th, Yang Mi had already gone to Wanwan, and Xu Xin also set off back to Shenmu.

The steel structure entered the site and returned as the "coordinator" of the project team, the construction party, and the contractor.

Before going back, I had prepared a month-long Olympic plan report and submitted it again.

Waiting for approval.

And, unlike last time, this time the creative team is full of confidence in this plan.

And on April 8th, which happened to be the Qingming Festival, Xu Xin was finally able to visit his mother's grave in a down-to-earth manner.

After visiting the grave, he walked into the construction site holding a safety helmet.

The construction period must be accelerated.

It has to be fast and good.



People often say on the Internet that French people have a very laid-back temperament.

In fact, this is also true.

At least, that's what Liu Momo thinks.

Compared with them, Italians are not even dregs.

It is obvious that we can enter working hours around 9 o'clock, but it happens that we don't see anyone until 10 o'clock, and after 10 o'clock, we have not talked much about anything, and we have entered the pleasant lunch time.

It took more than an hour to finish lunch, take a rest, and work for a while at three or four in the afternoon, and the day passed.

Sometimes it's really hard to understand.

It was just like she was sitting in the Cannes Film Association hall filled with media at this moment, waiting for the slow spokesperson in front of her to announce the first batch of nominees for this year's Cannes films.

Brother, can you hurry up?

What about such ink stains?

She came here mainly for "The Man from London". This film was submitted for review this year, and this morning was when the first batch of shortlists were announced.

At this moment, Pierre, the spokesman of the association in front of the microphone, finally opened the envelope, put on his reading glasses, and pointed his mouth at the microphone:

"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. The weather is nice today, right?"

Hearing his words, the reporters and distribution agents in the audience burst into laughter.

But not including Liu Momo.

She actually knew what these people were laughing at.

The spokesman, Pierre Manoux, lived in the UK in his early years, and the French did not have the habit of greeting each other about the weather. But he, who had lived in the UK, said this somewhat ancient sentence as a Frenchman.

joke……

It directly made many people laugh.

It's a pity...Liu Momo really doesn't know what's so funny about such a contrasting joke.

If you have the time, you might as well read the list earlier.

As expected, Pierre Manoux followed her wishes. After a joke, he said directly:

"After being reviewed by so many outstanding filmmakers, today, the nomination list for the competition unit of the 60th Cannes Film Festival finally appeared... So let us save time and start announcing the shortlist."

There was some commotion among the reporters.

As usual, the shortlist did not do anything fancy, but followed Cannes' formal procedures and was announced starting with the most important main competition unit.

"List of competition films, opening film: "Blueberry Nights", Wang Jiawei..."

After the words automatically translated into Chinese sounded in Liu Momo's mind, no one present was surprised.

The King of Sunglasses is a regular visitor.

An old friend of the French.

The French particularly appreciated his film art, and Cannes gave him high courtesy in almost every film.

Then, ignoring the reporters who were writing down notes in their notebooks, Pierre Manoux continued:

"The Old Mistress, Catherine Breillat..."Song of Love", "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly"..."

One name after another was read out, and Liu Momo's heart lifted up in his throat every time he read one.

one by one.

One after another.

finally……

"The Man from London, Béla Tarr."

"YES!"

When it came to the eighteenth name, Liu Momo instinctively dug into his fist and breathed a sigh of relief.

Yeah.

How could such a good story not be included in the main unit?

"call……"

After feeling comfortable for a moment, her mind began to spin rapidly, and she began to calculate how to maximize the benefits of this film.

After all, more than 10 million, almost all her belongings were tied up in it. Now that the film has entered the main competition section of Cannes, she is more or less at a loss.

If nothing else, getting your money back... isn't that difficult, right?

As long as this film makes back its money, and with the release of "Once" in March, the film's box office in Ireland will be very good, and it has already exceeded three million US dollars. And for a film with a budget of not even 150,000 US dollars

As far as the films are concerned, it can already be said to be a big hit.

There are still many countries to be released one after another, and the box office will only be higher.

However, the success of this film does not actually prove its strength. Although at first glance, the box office of a film with a price of 150,000 yuan has exceeded 3 million. To outsiders, it is a bloody profit.

But in fact, to use a saying in the investment circle, "you can never make money beyond your knowledge."

That's the truth.

Because when Liu Momo saw this script in Vivendi, he just thought it was a very suitable film for the DVD route, and there was almost no possibility of success at the box office.

Therefore, the popularity of "Once" reminded her of another saying in the investment circle.

It's not the so-called "we need to be friends with time", but "talent is worthless in the face of luck".

The movie that I had originally hoped to release on DVD suddenly became inexplicably popular at the box office, and even the songs in it began to be sung.

But Liu Momo didn't feel that this was his own credit.

Because this goes against her future judgment of the film.

Anyone who has been exposed to investment knows that people who also work for an investment company and those who have ups and downs in projects will never be as stable as those who seek to win. Although each investment is not large, the victory lies in stability and those who lose less money are more popular.

.

It's not that investment companies are short-sighted, but because they know better than anyone how slim these chances of getting rich are.

For a normal person, it would be a big deal if he encounters one in his lifetime.

Luck can bless everyone.

But luck will not always favor one person.

Therefore, it cannot be included in the consideration of personal performance.

Liu Momo thinks so of himself too.

Even though "Once" made money, it made money beyond its own knowledge.

Investment is successful.

But equally, as an investor, she cannot be said to have failed, but her performance cannot be said to be perfect.

However, with the movie "Man", it seems that her vision is correct.
To be continued...
