668. All nations come to Korea(1/4)
Xu Xin turned his head, looked at Su Meng and asked:
"what did you send?"
"It flashed just now. I didn't see it clearly. It seemed to be asking if you were busy."
As she said this, she walked over and handed the phone to Xu Xin.
On WeChat, a message shows:
"Are you there? Are you awake? I have something to ask you."
Seeing this, he replied with a question mark.
Then Liang Binning replied with a voice message:
"Have you set a March schedule for "Gang Piano"?"
Xu Xin's heart moved.
"Yes, several Yindu movies are scheduled to be released in April, and "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Fast and Furious" will be released in May, so they are scheduled for March. What's wrong?"
"There is something I need to tell you. Just now, an editor-in-chief with whom I have a very close relationship in Sohu's entertainment section called me. What he told me was that Sohu was focusing on movie promotion and marketing in March.
"Guanyin Mountain". The focus is to exaggerate "Guanyin Mountain" winning an award at the Tokyo Film Festival. After the promotion starts in March, there will be two consecutive editions of promotion recommendations, as well as online promotion programs."
"Then someone reminded me that "Gang's Piano" was also released this month, and asked if I should send out an invitation. I declined at the meeting, which meant that "Guanyin Mountain" was strongly promoted this month, and "Gang's Piano" was given a very average weight.
This is the content of their internal meeting. The editor-in-chief has been with me for many years and we get along very well, so he specifically told me about it."
"Right now I'm asking for the publicity plan for "Guanyin Mountain". But I feel like... something's not quite right about this. But I can't tell what's wrong, so I'm here to tell you."
"What I think is wrong is that yesterday, Laurel's people also confirmed my schedule and asked me if I have any movies to shoot in the new year. I must be participating in promotions, but they specifically asked me about this matter. I
I think it’s quite weird.”
Four voice messages were sent in a row.
Xu Xin's brows were already furrowed.
The good mood has completely dissipated.
After thinking for a while, he replied:
"You need to publicize the plan first and see how strong the publicity is this time."
"Is there something I need to be careful about? When you say that, I feel more and more something is wrong."
Seeing this message, Xu Xin was not in a hurry to reply.
Instead, he quickly ran through all the possibilities in his mind and said:
"Try to be careful with your words and deeds when promoting. Especially when you are asked why you don't make a movie in the studio...be more careful."
After Xu Xin sent this message, Liang Binning sent another text:
"You mean someone will instigate you?"
“Nip problems before they happen.”
Liang Binning did not reply.
Xu Xin continued to hand the phone to Su Meng.
Let her continue to respond to those messages.
At this time, Su Meng asked:
"Brother Xu, do you want to eat something?"
"Need not."
He shook his head.
An empty stomach helps you think better.
He simply poured himself a glass of water, sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the not-so-bright sky in the morning, squinting his eyes and lost in thought.
After drinking a glass of water, Liang Binning also sent a message.
Su Meng handed over the phone again.
"Just in time, I have finished replying."
"good."
Xu Xin nodded and nuzzled at Su Meng:
"Go and have a rest. Let's have lunch at noon."
"Oh, alright."
The assistant exited the suite.
Xu Xin also turned on Liang Binning’s voice:
"I've finished planning to let Yingying meet."
Next are several pictures of the electronic version of the plan.
The font is very small, and it is quite difficult to operate after enlarging it.
But it can be vaguely seen that event number 1 starts on February 15th.
1. Sichuan Channel "Entertainment Focus" ------ 14:00 pm on February 15.
2. iQiyi's "Entertainment Headlines" - 10 a.m. on February 16.
3. Exclusive interview with Sohu Entertainment ----- 15:00 pm on February 16.
4....
Xu Xin read through one itinerary after another, and then at the bottom he saw VCR recordings of unfamiliar entertainment news, including but not limited to Hunan, Southeast, Phoenix, and various large and small ones that he had heard or never heard before, or
Promotional slogan.
The content has been edited, and it is all like "Hello friends from the audience of XX Entertainment, I am Liang Binning, and on March 3, the movie "Guanyin Mountain" starring me will be released."
At the same time, the timing of the movie promotion is also weird.
Starting from February 15th, the promotional plan before the movie was released took up 2/3 of the page, but after the movie was released, there was even more.
It lasted until March 10th, which is the end of the most golden week for movies, and then it stopped.
Xu Xin is not a layman who has never promoted a movie.
When he saw this intensive publicity schedule, the first reaction in his mind was, did he mistake my Aunt Liang for a donkey?
This is almost the same as when I promoted "Hawthorn Tree".
Dense schedules, announcements, broadcasts, etc. come one after another.
So much that it explodes.
Basically, there are two announcements a day.
This kind of work intensity...Xu Xin experienced it when he was working on "Hawthorn Tree".
Not ordinary tired.
He frowned and clicked on the voice message from Liang Binning:
"This amount of work...is the most I have ever done for promoting a movie in the past two years."
"Xu Xin, should I ask Laurel's people what's going on? Why are there so many?"
"I have a feeling... it's not good. Can you tell me what's going on?"
Three consecutive voice messages were sent.
But Xu Xin was not in a hurry to reply.
Instead, he fell into thinking again.
But Liang Binning was unwilling to wait any longer. Seeing that he didn't reply, she called directly.
"Hello?"
After Xu Xin answered the phone, the first words he heard from Liang Binning were:
"There is no one around me, and Yingying is also out."
"Um...Okay, where are you?"
"Modu, there are a few commercials to be shot."
"Start work so early?"
"Oh, I'm not calling you just to chat. What's going on? Even if you get a best actress in "Guanyin Mountain", you won't use me like a donkey, right? I haven't called Li Yu yet
, if you hadn’t asked me first, I would have asked clearly what they wanted to do!”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Liang Binning’s voice was filled with anxiety:
"Also, what you just said... told me to be cautious in my words and actions. I thought about it... I'm not afraid of being instigated by others, but I'm afraid that people in the factory will think that I'm cheating..."
To be continued...
