The straight man in the entertainment circle

The third media person also sat down after finishing speaking.

This photographer didn’t over-interpret it. He was quite capable and could see some of the tricks in lighting photography, but it was far from all.

It can be said that there are so many photography and lighting techniques used in Lin Li's movie "Young You"!

After listening to what the photographer said, the audience suddenly realized that there is so much emphasis on lighting and photography in this movie!

No wonder some directors can impress people with the same scene, while others can make it look ridiculous.

At this time, a person from the corner of the crew rushed to the scene and signaled that he wanted to speak. Xu Zhe looked at Lin Li and saw that Lin Li had no objection, so he let him speak first.

"Hello everyone, I am the leader of the lighting team on the final subtitles of the movie. This gentleman just praised us. I was a little panicked, because in fact, in this movie, we did nothing at all. The photography and The use and scheduling of lighting are all done by Director Lin Li.”

"In other words, the lighting and photography of this movie can actually be tagged with Director Lin Li's name, but Director Lin Li respected us and put our names on it. Here, I would like to thank Director Lin Li. I also learned a lot. "

The lighting team leader took the initiative to admit it, and the others naturally told the truth.

As the heroine, Chen Qingqing has been with the team the longest. She said: "That's true. Senior Brother Lin Li is doing these things, and obviously Senior Brother Lin Li does it better."

Other actors have also testified.

On the crew, these things are indeed done by Lin Li. The photographer and lighting engineer are just tools.

Lin Li's photography skills are already top-notch. Regarding composition and lighting, he knows how many times more than the crew photographers and lighting engineers. In order to ensure the quality of the film, he naturally has to do it himself.

Lin Li didn't want to say anything at first, but after talking so much, he naturally wouldn't deny it.

Everyone was completely impressed by Lin Li's ability.

Let him do the whole movie by himself!

Simply unprecedented!

Then, several more people spoke.

Seeing that everyone had said all the nice things they could say, Xu Zhe moved on to the next stage, the fan interaction stage.

That is, some fans ask questions and give some gifts to their favorite actors. The actors on the stage have their own fans, so each family has a representative on stage.

The last part is Lin Li singing the theme song of "Young You".

After singing the song, tonight's premiere is over.

After Lin Li and others retreated to the backcourt, the fans in the theater reluctantly left.

Lin Li made a reservation for a dinner at the hotel in the evening. After all, he had eaten dinner early. It was already late at night and everyone was already hungry.

We had some late-night snacks at the hotel, and everyone gathered together to chat while eating.

Except for Lin Li, everyone else had watched the complete film for the first time, so naturally they had some sincere words and emotions to share.

A group of girls from the crew gathered around and started chattering.

"Chen Qingqing, you played Chen Nian so well!"

"Yeah, I almost cried when I saw it."

"You guys also performed well. Ruo Bing's Hu Xiaodie must be unforgettable, and Ji Yi also performed well. I'm afraid he will become a classic villain."

"Qin Zhensheng, your role as a police officer is also good. The struggle between love and law was fully demonstrated."

"It's all thanks to Director Lin."

"Hey, speaking of Director Lin Li, his acting skills are also awesome."

"Stop talking, I even want a boy like Director Lin to protect me. I can just be a housewife."

"Yes, Lin Li is really handsome in the movie!"

"What? He's very handsome in real life, right?"

"Hey, Ye Lin, what you said...do you have any thoughts about our Director Lin?"

"Sister Liu Chun, don't talk nonsense, Director Lin doesn't like me."

"Hey, didn't Director Lin Li say on stage today that he is someone we can never get, so don't think too much about it."

"But I think Lin Li and Chen Qingqing have such a strong sense of CP in the movie. I'm going to be a fan of both of them."

"I think it would have been better if Hu Xiaodie had met Xiaobei earlier, so she wouldn't have committed suicide."

"That said, it seems that Wu Ruobing and Lin Li are a good match. If they are childhood sweethearts, they will be together, and that will be a good story."

…………

Lin Li didn't have time to participate in their conversation, so he quietly looked at the hot searches on Weibo.

The news that Internet celebrity Ye Zhiyong committed suicide is still the top trending search topic.

Lin Li was a little surprised. In an age where information is so developed, netizens' attention will soon be attracted by other new events.

Once the discussion level drops, the number one hot search topic will be replaced.

Generally speaking, unless there are particularly important events, some ordinary entertainment news and social news will be good if they stay at the top of the trending search for two or three hours.

But half a day has passed, and this news is still at the top of the list. I really don’t know how much money Chen Qingqing spent to stabilize this hot search.

However, this hot search is indeed highly discussed online. Many media and big V have begun to discuss it, and even official media have spoken out.

And as this incident spread, the movie "Young You" also became more popular.

"Hey, everyone, look, several theaters have started to add screenings to our movie!"

Chen Qingqing bought the hot search, so naturally she paid special attention to the reactions from all walks of life brought about by this hot search. While chatting with everyone, she kept holding her mobile phone and checking the movie schedules of the movie theaters.

Staying in the hot search for so long and being so hot on the Internet has also had a great impact on the popularity of the movie "Better Days". In addition, after the premiere of the "Better Days" movie just ended, a wave of online outbursts broke out Ticket buying peak.

A lot of tickets for "Better Days" scheduled for tomorrow have been sold. This has influenced various theater chains to increase their schedules for "Better Days".

After everyone heard what Chen Qingqing said, they immediately came over and started looking.

In addition to Huaxia Cinemas and Hunan University Cinemas, more than ten other cinemas have more or less added screenings to the film "Young You".

"Wow, I saw it this morning. Our film schedule was only 10%, and now it's over 15%!" Wu Ruobing said excitedly.

"Exceeding 15%? That's not bad. After our movie is broadcast tomorrow, word-of-mouth fermentation will definitely break 20%." Liu Chun said.

"The movie schedule of "Extinction" has been reduced. It was almost 30% when I watched it in the morning, and now it is only 25%." Chen Qingqing said with a smile.

There were too many stars in the movie "Extinction", and everyone present, except Chen Qingqing and Wu Ruobing, seemed to know that this was very sensitive and did not take the words.

"It seems like the two largest theater chains haven't added many extra shows for us," Qin Zhensheng said.

"The two largest theater chains, Yanda Cinema and Huaxia Cinema, if they give us more shows, our film schedule can be greatly improved."

"Yeah, I don't understand. Other companies saw that our movie was doing well and gave us extra shows. Why were they indifferent?"

"The pre-scheduling schedules for both of them are full, and there are no extra shows. Moreover, I heard that "Extinction" gave them an extra 4 points of share. Naturally, they will tilt the film schedule to "Extinction"." Song Wenjie She said that she had found out clearly about this aspect.

"Four points? This... is really willing to bleed."

"Yes, if the box office is 1 billion, 40 million will be divided among them!"

Lin Li smiled and said, "Thank you to them!"

According to the rules of the film industry, the box office of a movie must be more than three times the investment in order to make money, because half of the box office is distributed to the theater chain, as well as some taxes.

"Extinction" claims to have an investment of 400 million. Even if it is an exaggeration, the investment for the entire movie with such a large number of stars will not be less than 300 million. According to this calculation, "Extinction" will have to reach at least 1 billion at the box office to make money. .

Although "Extinction" has the most luxurious star cast in the summer season, from Lin Li's point of view, it is simply a dream for Guo Xiaoshan's movie to have a box office of 1 billion.

Don't look at the box office of Guo Xiaoshan's first movie with a box office of 250 million, the box office of his second movie with a box office of 265 million, the box office of his third movie with a box office of 420 million, and the box office of his fourth movie with a box office of 450 million. It seems that one box office is higher than the other, but he is the first The second movie has been shot for 10 years, and the third and fourth movies were only released in the past two years.

In such a long time, movie tickets have more than doubled. In other words, the number of moviegoers of Guo Xiaoshan's movies has not increased, or has even been decreasing.

Moreover, these movies have not received passing ratings. Guo Xiaoshan's reputation has been completely ruined by these movies. He still wants to use star power to make money, but it has long since failed.

The most important thing is that Lin Li knew that the movie "Extinction" was unwatchable just by looking at the trailer. It was mainly a CG movie, but the characters made with CG effects were so stiff that it was not as good as some excellent domestic cartoons.

The trailer is like this, can I still watch the full movie?

At this time, in order to compete for the film schedule, "Extinction" also took the initiative to give theaters share points, which only made them suffer more losses in the end.

For comparison, the investment in "Young You" was only 50 million, which means that as long as the box office reaches 150 million, Lin Li will make money.

The reason why the investment in "Young You" is so small is because all the actors gave Lin Li a preferential price. He and Wu Ruobing both appeared for free, saving a lot of money. There was very little post-production work and no announcements. This Only 50 million can be used to make such a movie.

Although Chen Qingqing also said that she would perform for free, Lin Li still paid her the normal market price.

But this time the hot search lasted for so long, Lin Li estimated that Chen Qingqing also spent all the remuneration he gave her. After all, Chen Qingqing acted for free, and her money was used for publicity.

Thinking about this, Lin Li felt a little sorry. Wu Ruobing was free. After all, she and he had grown up together. It was his first time making a movie, so it was reasonable for her to help. Moreover, she only had one scene and shot it in one day. It's over. If Wu Ruobing needs help, Lin Li won't hesitate.

But Chen Qingqing was different. She seemed to have nothing to do with him. Moreover, Chen Qingqing spent nearly two months filming this movie and sacrificed her hair. How could Lin Li have the nerve to let her get nothing?

But if I want to pay Chen Qingqing again, I have no reason.

Chen Qingqing has long said that she bought Hot Search for justice in her heart, but not for the movie. What reason did Lin Li have to pay her back?

Watching Chen Qingqing chatting with a group of actors from a distance, her smile was so bright and her eyes were so moving, Lin Li suddenly remembered what Xiaobei said in his movie.

"When I like someone, I want to give them the best ending."

Perhaps, Chen Qingqing also thinks so in her heart?

Lin Li looked at Chen Qingqing from a distance and suddenly smiled.

The next morning, the first thing Lin Li did when he woke up was to turn on his phone and look at hot searches.

The suicide of Internet celebrity Ye Zhiyong finally ranked first in the trending search, but it is still ranked tenth.

Lin Li understood that it was unlikely that Chen Qingqing bought this, but that the heat of the matter itself had not subsided.

But hot searches are interesting.

First place: "Extinction" is released today, and the CG special effects are not inferior to Hollywood!

The fifth hot search: "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" may be Cheng Ming's last action movie.

No. 8 hot search: The movie "Missing You in the World" has a huge reputation.

After watching it, Lin Li thought that the summer season was really intense, and there were more popular movies than usual.

These hot searches also made Lin Li look down on him. "Extinction" really has no self-awareness at all. How dare you say that it is not inferior to Hollywood in terms of its post-production?

Cheng Ming is indeed China's most well-known actor in the world, and Lin Li also likes it very much, but this is not the first time he has mentioned the joke about his last movie, and it was used this time, and Lin Li was quite speechless.

However, these are all problems of the investors and Xuanfa Company, and Cheng Ming is not to blame.

It is relatively common for people like "Missing You in the World" to brag about the popularity of their movies, but the audience has been fooled so much that this kind of hot search is completely ineffective.

After reading the hot searches for these movies, Lin Li felt that the hot searches bought by Chen Qingqing were not showy and unrevealing. They always aroused huge topics and the effect was very good. They were much better than the methods mentioned above.

If Chen Qingqing hadn't been an actor, he would probably have become a very good planner.

After reading the hot searches, Lin Li took a look at the current schedule of the movie "Young You".

Before yesterday, the film schedules in theaters could only be regarded as previews. However, after the movie is officially released today, the film schedules displayed by all theaters are finalized. They are all for external ticket sales and will not change.

"Extinction": 23.5%

"Missing Your World": 19.2%

"Young You": 18.7%

"Escape": 17.8%

"Romance Dies": 11.0%

"Young You" jumped from 10% the day before yesterday to 18.7% overnight!

This increase has made several other movie distributors hungry.

The film schedules of several other movies have been reduced a lot, especially "Extinction". If Guo Xiaoshan hadn't given the two major theaters a larger share, I'm afraid the film schedule would not have been able to break through 20%.

Lin Li's movie was not announced at all, but it ended up getting so many slates. Obviously, theaters also saw that the movie's popularity has grown astonishingly in the past two days.

To put it bluntly, theaters are still open for business, and they still get a share.

Whichever movie is more popular, sells more tickets, and makes more money, they will naturally increase their schedule to that movie.

And all this is voted by the audience with their feet!
